Now that Jack entered the yellow fog, his view was completely blocked. He couldn't see shit. But with his mana sense guiding him, he soon arrived at the first tree.
The fog in the area directly around the tree was not so dense, so he could see the tree. The trunk had rough white bark with lots of cracking. The inside of these cracks was a yellowish substance. Its branches spread out and were all burning. The flames were strangely burning toward the outside instead of burning upward.
Jack sensed a rune diagram under the tree. After probing the diagram for while, he understood the diagram didn't contain any offensive trap. It only monitored the well-being of the tree. He also saw the traces that the ground was dug. This confirmed this tree didn't originally grow here.
"I don't see anything that looked like a fruit," Jack said. "Do the fruits grow on the tree's roots? Are they underground?"
