The Emperor Tree created its own mechs!
This was a capability that the calamity plant had never shown before!
The fact that the tree felt the need to produce its own version of mechs also indicated that it had adopted a deliberate strategy to deal with the invading humans.

Even though the initial wave of wooden mechs had been dealt with remarkable ease, none of the mech pilots dared to relax.
