Regret youthful ignorance
Chapter 394 The Giant Tree's Power
Chen Luo felt that the energy contained in this one fruit was much better than a level ten crystal, but it didn't quite reach the level of a king-class crystal.
Still, it was already quite rare.
Seeing Mifan’s mouth watering, Chen Luo smiled and handed it over.
Mifan didn't mind Chen Luo's saliva and took a bite.
"So delicious."
Chen Luo directly stuffed the rest to Mifan, but Mifan touched her stomach, "How did I get full so quickly? It's not good to eat too much."
That's right, the crystal power Chen Luo could absorb at one time was several times that of others.
When Chen Luo was at level ten, it took him a week to absorb a king-class crystal, but now it only took two days. It took others at level ten about twenty-five days to absorb a crystal.
Chen Luo fed the fruit to Hai Ji, saying, "Sister, you eat too."
Hai Ji decisively took a bite.
Ning Shuang's little nose twitched, and she swallowed, saying, "Give me a bite too."
Chen Luo first gave one of the remaining two fruits to Mili and Miling, then said to Ning Shuang.
"Cry for me, and I'll let you eat."
Cry?
Ning Shuang immediately felt very wronged. You gave it to others without saying a word, but you want me to cry first.
You always like to bully me.
"Waa."
Ning Shuang, who didn't want to cry, couldn't help but shed tears.
Mili felt helpless but knew that Chen Luo wasn't deliberately bullying Ning Shuang; he wanted to collect more of Ning Shuang's pearls.
Chen Luo awkwardly handed the rest to Ning Shuang.
For food, you really can do anything.
Ning Shuang wiped her tears, snorted, and turned her head away.
Are you哄ing a child?
Mili cut the fruit into thirds, one for her, one for Miling, and one for Ning Shuang, and Ning Shuang ate it with a smile through her tears.
Chen Luo cut the last fruit into n pieces and shared it with Su Dazhu, Ma Yu, Dharma King, the puppy, Meng Yin, Zhao Ziyi, and Yin Ling.
The Dharma King got the biggest piece; he could eat the most.
Before long, the three fruits were gone.
This wouldn't do. You can bear fruit, right?
This giant tree was truly magical. Chen Luo planned to have Meng Yin improve the giant tree or concentrate the power of nature-type members to ripen the fruit.
Chen Luo acted again, going to find the giant tree.
Giant tree?? You don't want to be split in half, do you?
Although the giant tree had killed Chen Luo's members, if it was confirmed that the giant tree could grow a large number of fruits, how could he kill it?
He would squeeze it dry first.
In the world of adults, most things are not divided into right and wrong, only advantages and disadvantages.
Keeping the giant tree could allow more people to survive.
At this time, Chen Luo had not yet realized that the giant tree was far more magical than he thought.
Chen Luo appeared again, and the giant tree sent another message.
"I devoured some people, and you robbed the fruits I worked so hard to grow. We're even. Why are you back? What do you want?"
Chen Luo sneered, "Even? You killed 96 of my people. Each person is worth one fruit. If someone offends me, I'll repay them tenfold, which is 960 fruits. If you bring them, I'll consider letting you go."
The giant tree was shocked. There was actually such a shameless person in the world.
960 fruits? I haven't even grown that many since I started bearing fruit, far from it.
"I'll fight you!"
The giant tree began to rage, and a black line shot towards Chen Luo.
It seemed he was being a bit excessive.
After Chen Luo dodged, he softened his tone, "Don't get excited. I can help you bear fruit."
The giant tree was stunned, "You want to help me find food to devour?"
Chen Luo: ???
The giant tree produced fruit by devouring?
After some conversation, that was indeed the case.催熟 (cui shu, ripening) and the like had no effect on the giant tree.
The giant tree relied on absorbing energy from food to condense fruit.
The giant tree's food was the various creatures it forcefully lured.
The giant tree said, "In the beginning, the food was very plentiful. I didn't even need to catch it; it came to my door on its own. Slowly, it started to decrease. Later, I had to rely on my誘惑 (yòuhuò, seduction)."
"Later, too much food died. The food could sense that this place was dangerous and didn't dare to get close. Before eating your people, I hadn't had a full meal in a long time."
The giant tree seemed to be reminiscing, "The humans I ate today were really delicious. Any one of them was more delicious than anything I had eaten before."
The mutated creatures on Kangaroo Island generally hovered around level four or five. Chen Luo's members were all level seven, so of course, they were much stronger than rabbits and kangaroos.
The higher the level of the food, the more energy it provided to the giant tree?
Chen Luo had five king-level corpses in his space. Chen Luo thought they might be useful, so he collected them.
Even if they weren't useful, at least they could be used as shields for others, right?
They weren't very useful to Chen Luo, so thinking of this, he immediately took one out.
"Try eating this and see what kind of fruit you can condense."
The giant tree was not polite and stretched out a branch to grab it.
As soon as the huge flower bud devoured the corpse, the giant tree was stunned and said in disbelief, "What did you give me to eat? It contains so much energy!"
This was not an ordinary thing; Chen Luo only had five of them.
Chen Luo smiled lightly, "I'll see what kind of fruit you can bear, and then I'll consider how to cooperate with you."
If one corpse could condense a fruit like the previous ones, then they could cooperate.
The giant tree desperately began to digest, "You have to wait a day. I need time to digest before I can condense a mature fruit."
A day?
Chen Luo could afford to wait.
Chen Luo came again a day later and saw that the giant tree had indeed grown another crystal-clear fruit, vaguely larger than the ones he had picked before.
Chen Luo was about to pick it when he heard the giant tree say, "Do you have any more food like yesterday? Give me more, and I can make this fruit even more高级 (gāojí, advanced)."
The previous fruits were somewhat useful to Chen Luo, but not very significant. Hearing this, his eyes lit up.
Could it be that it could condense a fruit equivalent to a king-level crystal?
Chen Luo threw down another corpse without leaving, sitting not far from the giant tree.
The next day, the giant tree wanted another one.
Chen Luo gritted his teeth and gave it to it, "Dare to deceive me, and you'll see."
On the third day, the fruit had not increased in size much, but the luster it emitted almost blinded Chen Luo.
The tree trunk, which had been split in half by the Dimensional Blade, had also mostly recovered, whether it was the giant tree's ability to heal itself or because devouring the corpse accelerated the repair.
The giant tree said reluctantly, "This fruit is the limit of my current ability. I can't bear any better fruit. I haven't even eaten it myself."
As soon as Chen Luo heard this, he immediately picked it.
The giant tree was dumbfounded. Where was its fruit?
How could it have magically disappeared?
If Chen Luo's methods weren't so bizarre and the Dimensional Blade's power wasn't so great, the giant tree wouldn't have cooperated so obediently.
Chen Luo, who had taken a bite of the fruit, narrowed his eyes, but his heart was filled with excitement.
