Deities Are All Just My Food

Chapter 1048: Chapter 495: Storming the Tower

"What kind of fruit monsters?"

Zhang Hao had not yet conjured the image of the corresponding monsters in her mind when she saw a group of fruits with tiny legs squeaking and screaming as they charged down the spiral staircase.

From large fruits like apples, pears, and grapefruits to small ones like cherries, bayberries, and mulberries...

They descended like a pack of mad dogs.

"Grab the handrail!"

Zhang Hao bellowed, grabbing the steel rebar handrail embedded in the tower wall. Then she realized, aren’t these fruits just food?

Never mind whether they’re edible or not, cut them down first!

"Kill those fruits!"

The voices of Zhang Hao, Lin Baici, and Gu Qingqiu all rang out simultaneously.

"Wow!"

Long Miaomiao shouted excitedly, staring straight at the fruits that seemed so delicious!

"Hurry and grab the handrail!"

Fang Mingyuan, with both hands on the handrail, urgently urged Long Miaomiao.

Some fruits exploded on impact with bodies, spraying juice and pulp everywhere—on faces, arms—messy and sticky, with an alluring fruity fragrance that made one crave a bite.

But when the larger fruits exploded, even though they didn’t have the power of grenades, the shockwave was enough to make one unsteady, stumbling this way and that, let alone chopping at fruits.

They didn’t know that this was the scene after Xia Hongyao had wielded her Black Blade Dagger, holding back the charging army of fruit monsters; otherwise, there would have been even more fruit monsters coming down.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Xia Hongyao slashed repeatedly, quickly piling up fruit carcasses before her.

"Haha, this is so much fun!"

Xia Hongyao was enjoying herself.

[Be careful of durians.]

[Jackfruits will explode in succession!]

Lin Baici pulled Gu Qingqiu, who had fallen down the steps, back up. Once she had a firm grip on the handrail, just as he was about to go help Xia Hongyao, he heard Eater God’s commentary.

"Red Medicine, watch out for durians and jackfruits!"

Lin Baici swung his sword, splitting a honeydew melon into a large and small half.

"I know!"

No need for Lin Baici to remind her—durians and jackfruits were huge, so the power of their explosions would definitely be greater.

But High Ponytail wasn’t scared.

Xia Hongyao saw a durian, bigger than a basketball by two times, try to sneak attack her while she swung her dagger, and she immediately slapped it with her palm.

High Ponytail wanted to knock the durian down the stairs because if it exploded, not only would the impact be dreadful, but she guessed it would also smell awful. Her intentions were good, but the execution did not go as hoped.

Her left hand had just hit the durian when it exploded like a triggered landmine.

Boom!

Green juice instantly burst in all directions, splashing on the stairs and bricks, and also creating a mist that not only obscured vision but emitted an awful stench.

From afar, it looked like a heavy raincloud.

Ugh! Ugh!

Everyone reacted as if they were attacked by a biological weapon, with physiological responses like nausea, revulsion, vomiting, completely out of their control.

Even people with nerves of steel like Lin Baici and Xia Hongyao, who could keep a straight face at the smell of a corpse and suppress the urge to vomit, were affected now.

Lin Baici’s stomach churned tumultuously, waves of contents gushed up from his throat like a fountain.

Of course, the most troublesome part was the vision blocked by the green mist, seeing nothing at all.

Xia Hongyao prepared to rush upstairs, away from the mist.

"Don’t go up there, it’s too dangerous!"

Gu Qingqiu yelled.

This wasn’t a flat surface; a wrong step could lead to a nasty fall!

Lin Baici activated Red Rolling Stone, summoning Little Clay Man, but as soon as it hit the ground, it slipped on fruit juice, taking a fall.

Little Clay Man got up, grabbed Lin Baici’s trousers like a squirrel climbing up, soon reaching his head, and then swung the Sling, hurling Flying Stones.

Attacking those fruits aiming for Xia Hongyao’s and Gu Qingqiu’s heads.

Little Clay Man’s vision was also blocked, but it could locate by sound.

"Everyone hold steady!"

Lin Baici wanted to help Xia Hongyao but was worried about leaving Gu Qingqiu and Hua Yue Yu alone, fearing they might get into trouble.

Downstairs, cries of alarm rose and fell.

Zhang Hao chopped at fruits just like slicing vegetables, ignoring the small ones and going after the big ones. She loved pineapples, so every pineapple that passed by her met its fate.

Some bananas, like little snakes, slithered across the ground; some exploded, leaving behind a pale yellow goopy mess that could send one tumbling if stepped on.

Xia Hongyao emerged from the durian mist and looked up to see a large jackfruit, like a boulder tumbling down a ravine, rolling down the stairs.

Had Lin Baici not warned her, given High Ponytail’s character, she would’ve definitely fired a kick, but now, she decided to use her dagger to send it flying away.

But before she could act, a hand formed from Divine Power shot from behind, grabbing the jackfruit and throwing it far.

The jackfruit flew over twenty meters, then exploded with a boom, the walnut-sized fruit chunks bursting in mid-air, scattering and exploding in succession.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The sky looked like fireworks were being set off.

Xia Hongyao chopped fruits joyfully, then suddenly, her view cleared—the fruit monsters were gone.

The monster wave must have ended.

She looked back; the durian mist hadn’t completely dissipated, "Is everyone okay?"

"We’re fine!"

"Not bad!"

"Can we eat these fruit corpses?"

Everyone responded with a cacophony of voices, and some, overcome with thirst, salivated at the sight of the fruit monster corpses on the ground.

"Don’t just eat them..."

Zhang Hao didn’t finish her sentence before Long Miaomiao interrupted.
