Chapter 1222 - Chapter 1222 Chapter 786 The adult said want her

Chapter 1222: Chapter 786 The adult said ‘want her Chapter 1222: Chapter 786 The adult said ‘want her Anthony suddenly turned his head to listen, then nodded and turned to float towards Ange.

Ange directly took out a Fruit of Life, their actions so in sync, it was clear they had just communicated through the Soul Network.

“Do you recognize this?” Anthony asked, holding the Fruit of Life in front of Lofty.

Lofty’s eyes nearly popped out as he exclaimed in shock, “Fruit of Life! Do you have a First Order Divine Tree?”

“First Order Divine Tree? Is that how you classify them? How exactly do you classify them?” Anthony asked.

Lofty explained, “A First Order Divine Tree can only grow within a plane, a Second Order Divine Tree can cross planes and even grow into the Void, and a Third Order Divine Tree can bear fruits from different worlds. That’s how we classify them.”

Anthony nodded and said, “That’s almost the same as our classification, corresponding to the World Tree, the Void Tree, and the Tree of Ten Thousand Realms. From now on, we will use our classification. Why do you mention the World Tree when you see the Fruit of Life? Doesn’t the Void Tree bear the Fruit of Life as well?”

“It can bear fruit, but there shouldn’t be anyone in the Void worrying about life, so it generally doesn’t,” Lofty mentioned.

Anthony was puzzled, but Negris understood and said, “Fruits grow sweet to attract animals to eat them, helping to spread their seeds. If the fruit isn’t sweet, no animals will eat it. In the Void, what would attract creatures if not the sweetness of life?”

Ange tilted his head in confusion and shouted over his shoulder, “Huh?”

Little Sapling sluggishly propped itself up, looking around blankly.

Ange said to it, “Fruit.”

Ah– Little Sapling arched its stem, vigorously spurred on, sending out fervent messages: forcefully–grow–forcefully–grow–

Soon, a bud appeared on its stem, bloomed into a flower, and quickly bore a fruit.

The fruit was as large as a washbasin, hanging on the delicate Little Sapling, looking very mismatched, but Little Sapling didn’t seem burdened at all.

When the fruit matured and naturally fell, Negris opened it and exclaimed in surprise, “Huh? Isn’t this Upgrade Beans?”

Inside the fruit, besides the pulp and juice, there were seeds shaped exactly like the Upgrade Beans that Luther had eaten before. Could those Upgrade Beans be fruits from the Void Tree?

“Yeah, they do look similar, should we call Luther out to try?” Anthony suggested.

“Can’t you eat it? You’re also a living person.”

“What if it’s poisonous? How about you try?”

“Let’s just let Luther try; he’s eaten them before, he can differentiate if there’s any difference.”

Luther was brought out and tried a small piece of the fruit peel, a bit of the flesh, a seed, and even drank a small cup of juice, ending up with a nosebleed: “It’s not Upgrade Beans, but I still feel filled with strength.”

After comparing and trying, they found that the seeds were not Upgrade Beans, just resembling them, but the effects were stronger, and the fruit peel, flesh, and juice all had the same effects as Upgrade Beans.

“I also thought it couldn’t be, Ange has also grown Upgrade Beans, it couldn’t be from the Void Tree. If it only stimulated potential, it would be useless to Void Creatures, it must have another effect,” Negris said.

Could Void Creatures, unattracted even by increased longevity, be attracted by stimulated potential?

Ange handed over the remaining half of the Upgrade Fruit to Little Zombie.

“Huh?”

“Boh.”

Little Zombie bit into the Upgrade Fruit, crunching it quickly until it was all gone.

By the time Negris saw, Little Zombie had already finished eating, and it was too late to stop him. Negris said somewhat helplessly, “Aren’t you afraid it’ll spoil?”

Ange shook his head, “It won’t.”

“So sure?” Negris was stunned for a moment before he couldn’t help but lean in close to Little Zombie, probing into its body with his thoughts.

This action was inherently dangerous, as Little Zombie’s Soul Strength was too high, and Negris’s current body had a weak soul, which, even without being retaliated against, made it difficult for him to see through Little Zombie’s body.

“Pull back, pull back your Soul Energy, let me see,” Negris fumbled with Little Zombie.

Little Zombie reluctantly retracted its Soul Energy, allowing Negris’s thoughts to get through and see the changes inside its body.

He saw the fruit turn into a puddle of fluid that seeped into the body before even reaching the stomach, then dissolved inside.

“How magical, it dissolved before reaching the stomach, so it’s not digested… Could it be absorbed through the skin too?” Negris grabbed Little Zombie’s damp hand.

“Eh, it’s not wet? Where did the juice on the hand go? Absorbed? Why are the hands so tender? Can it also soften the skin? Lisa would probably love this,” Negris marveled, flipping Little Zombie’s hand back and forth.

“Lord Nage, look over here,” Anthony pointed out something else.

Ange joined in, looking at a small patch of purple-gold skin on Little Zombie.

After gathering strength, Little Zombie could temporarily transform into the Mourning Necromancer, but would revert to its original state once the time passed, leaving only a small spot of purple-gold intensity.

But now, that small patch of purple-gold skin had expanded.

“Hissss–does eating the fruit turn the skin to purple-gold? Are you joking?” Negris gasped in astonishment.

“It’s probably not about turning the skin purple-gold, but transforming the life form. It’s just because Little Zombie’s higher life form is the Lord of Mourning, so the skin turns purple-gold. If you ate it, you might even turn into a Dragon God,” Anthony explained.

“Really? Little Sapling, get me one too,” Negris said, then hesitated, “Wait, that wouldn’t serve the purpose of spreading seeds, look, Little Zombie isn’t spitting out seeds.”

No sooner had he finished speaking than Little Zombie went, “Cough–spit spit spit–” spitting out a bunch of seeds.

Alright, there were seeds now. Asked why it spit them, it said “Ao.”

Lofty quickly crawled over, wanting to pick up the seeds, but was shouldered aside by Little Zombie, flying off.

Lofty didn’t utter a sound, knelt again properly, and excitedly said, “Please let me serve the God of Tree, let me attend to the new God of Tree, I am a Honey Elf, born to care for the Divine Tree, please let me serve the God of Tree.”

Anthony smiled slightly, “Why should you serve? Can you take care of the God of Tree by yourself?”

“No no no, not just me, all Honey Elves will come running to serve if they know the God of Tree has been reborn, please let me summon all the Honey Elves, they’d be thrilled,” Lofty spoke excitedly.

“How can I trust you?” Anthony asked.

Without another word, Lofty offered her Divine Mark, Ange took it after beating it, and then Lofty, refreshed, stepped aside and started transmitting messages in her unique way.

Negris edged closer to Anthony, whispering, “Did you trap her?”

“The Lord said ‘need her’, trick her, let her come to us willingly, it’s easier to accept than forcing her,” Anthony whispered back.

Negris gave him a thumbs-up, the Death God’s Staff sure fooled people impressively.

Then he turned to Lofty, observing some lines appearing on her forehead, curiously asking, “Is this your Honey Spirit Net?”
