Moments before… Ren's POV
Things were going extraordinarily well for Ren's energy network.
Each healing provided him more power, each infected soldier who touched the roots added energy to the system. He could feel how his capacity grew exponentially, as if he had directly connected with an enormous power source that expanded his consciousness.
Mooshito was ecstatic.
"Incredible, so many golds and high silvers shouldn't be underestimated!" he communicated with emotion that Ren rarely had felt from the small mushroom. "Practically the entire space covered by the infected is already very close to being trapped in our network!"
His companion's enthusiasm was contagious. Ren could feel the network extending farther and farther, connecting soldiers he couldn't even see from here.
