Chapter 407 The Man Who Swallowed the Fruit
"Is Mr. Zhang Ji surprised?"

"Isn't this kind of thing surprising?" Zhang Ji couldn't believe it.

He couldn't understand, given Jidu's strength and status, there was no reason why he wanted to help these bugs?

"I don't know what Mr. Zhang Ji is surprised by, is he surprised by the power of the Devourer, or by my appearance?"

"All of them. I'm even more surprised by your appearance."

"It's the same when I think about it. After all, in order to meet Mr. Zhang Ji in time, I rejected a friend's invitation."

Ji Du slowly walked in front of Zhang Ji, and gently held a seven-star ladybug.

But he didn't crush the bug like Zhang Ji did, instead he said with a loving face:

"The power of the devourers is extremely powerful, and they are the embodiment of the rules of the devouring god, and they can destroy all the rules of the world.

Even the top strength is fine.

But the Devourers are not without flaws, the price for their powerful power is their short life force.

You see, just gobble up some stone and steel and they're going to die.

Although for them, devouring stone and steel is no different than devouring artifacts..."

Ji Du talked eloquently, and it was a simple introduction to Zhang Ji about the ability of the devourer bug.

Zhang Ji is not stupid, and it is impossible for him to get to where he is today.

So he is very clear that there are things he needs to do by himself...

"Master Jidu, what do you need me to do? Are you using these bugs?"

"Mr. Zhang Ji is really a man full of wisdom. I didn't even explain it, but you already know that I need you..."

"Don't say these meaningless words, I just want to know, after becoming a bugman... Is it possible for me to go back?"

"Mr. Zhang Ji, don't worry, you are just not familiar with this power...

Once you have fully mastered the power of the insect king, you can control your own state as you like.

So this period of time is actually the most dangerous period for you. "

Hearing what Ji Du said, Zhang Ji's eyes lit up immediately.

Yes, although the bugman is powerful, he still can't control it well.

This is what troubles him.

Uncontrollable power does not belong to oneself at all, and it will bring disasters.

"Will you teach me?"

"Of course, teaching you to control the power of the insect king is the first step in our plan."

"Then, what do I need to do after I can control the power of the bug?"

Ji Du lifted up a few female devourers and carefully placed them on Zhang Ji's shoulders.

"Look, they like you very much... really worthy of the power of the insect king."

"Stop talking nonsense, my patience is limited, although you are much stronger than me, but I am also qualified to die.

At worst, I'll go back and tell Chi Xiao all this, she will definitely be surprised by Master Kedu's performance. "

Zhang Ji has never been a person who will let others slaughter him.

Even if the plan is much better than him, he will not give up on himself.

"Very well, the insect king should have his own unique personality, not just a puppet..."

"Tell me, what do you need me to do?"

"I need you to take the Mother Devourer to a place."

"Where?"

"The Eastern Heroes Monument of Tianrui Lifeng."

Ji Du said something that Zhang Ji couldn't understand.

"You want to destroy the Eastern Heroes Monument? Why? Is there anything special about that monument?"

"It's better for Mr. Zhang Ji not to know about this kind of thing, the more you know, the more dangerous it will be.

Mr. Zhang Ji should understand such a simple truth. "

Faced with Ji Du's request, Zhang Ji hesitated for a while, and finally nodded.

"Okay, as long as you teach me the power to control the insects, and after I learn it, I will help you."

"Mr. Zhang Ji really has a lot of requests, but there is no rush, we still have a few days to prepare.

In the past few days, Mr. Zhang Ji should have a good experience of the Zerg's ability. "

……

On Chi Xiao's side, after being rejected by Ji Du for the second time, she returned directly to her residence.

A small detached apartment.

She is quite rich, so she never treats herself badly in this regard.

The decoration in the residence is perfect and comfortable.

When chatting with Xu Le before, Chi Xiao explained his physical problems.

After fighting the Kuroshio all night, she had to rest.

Simply put, get a good night's sleep.

But before that, Chi Xiao felt that he should eat something to satisfy his appetite...

But the problem now is... There is nothing delicious at home.

Because I haven't been back for too long, it is impossible to store fruits and vegetables in the refrigerator.

She can't cook either, so there's no way these things exist...

The only thing that can be taken out to eat seems to be a quick-frozen dumpling and some instant noodles that are about to expire.

If it was in the past, Chi Xiao might have just opened the bag and soaked it in water for instant eating.

But now she actually has an idea... that I should eat better.

"I can actually not eat..."

Looking at the instant noodles in his hand, Chi Xiao felt a little uncomfortable.

In the end, she casually took out a large bowl from the cupboard and took a large bowl of water.

The fingertips were overheated instantly, and the water boiled.

Putting the ingredients and noodles in, she simply cooked the remaining five bags of noodles...

But the first bite... Chi Xiao felt a little regretful.

It's too salty...the ingredients are too much.

"I never imagined that it would be so difficult to eat a delicious meal."

Chi Xiao looked at the noodles in embarrassment, took them out, soaked them in water, and cooked them again.

The second toss, the taste is no problem, but the noodles have thickened...

Staring at the noodles that had grown several times in size, the corners of Chi Xiao's mouth twitched.

"Hey, it's too difficult for me."

Bite the bullet and finished the big bowl of noodles, Chi Xiao washed himself up a bit, then lay down on the bed.

"After waking up, eat something good? Bring Xu Le with you? Please return? Yes."

While talking to himself, Chi Xiao closed his eyes.

It was a very, very long sleep.

……

night.

On the other side of the city, Bai Jing returned to her home.

Since mastering the power of darkness, she has rarely returned.

She didn't know why she came back today, but she just felt that she should come back...

"Xiao Jing, is it Xiao Jing?"

"Mom, I'm back." Bai Jing looked at her sick mother with a cold expression on her face.

I don't know if it's because of those experiences in the past, but she really can't care about her family now, and she doesn't even feel close to some of her fighting partners.

For his elder brother, he hated it to the extreme.

Hope they don't ask themselves for money...

Things are often not as good as I imagined. As soon as Bai Jing had this idea, her mother said:

"Xiao Jing, did you bring the money back this time? I haven't been back for so long, so it must be a mission? What about the mission bonus?"

Bai Jing: ...

There was no arguing, and no quarreling.

The last time she ran away from home for so long, her mother didn't even pay any attention, and she didn't even know what she was doing.

Asking for money endlessly, only money, only that useless son.

Ah……

"There is no mission and no money. I came back to pack my things."

"Pack up? What are you going to do?"

"Get out of this house."

"Hey, Xiao Jing, you can't do this. If you leave this house, what will your brother do?"

"What to do? Let him die."

Bai Jing suddenly became fierce, but looking at her mother who was sick in bed, she really didn't carry out this attitude.

"Forget it, this kind of quarrel is meaningless. It's time for him to grow up. As a son, he has to support his mother."

Bai Jing returned to her room, only to find that there were already other people's things in the room.

It seems that because I haven't come back for a while, I was taken over by some people.

A woman raised by my brother?Or someone else.

After outsiders came, Bai Jing also felt a sense of disgust for the things here. If someone else used her own things, it would be unclean.

"Meaningless."

Opening her drawer, Bai Jing took out some documents and materials, ready to take them away.

The money hidden here has been wiped out, and it goes without saying who did it.

Bai Jing didn't want to worry about these things, she was leaving anyway.

When opening the last drawer, Bai Jing suddenly froze.

A fruit entwined with a black breath is quietly placed here.

Surrounded by the black mist, Bai Jing felt something closer to the essence of darkness, which was exactly what she needed...

"This thing may make my promotion easier, but it's an external force after all..."

Bai Jing was a little hesitant, but this hesitation only existed for a few seconds before she picked up the fruit.

Anyway, this is a fruit, and it doesn't look like an ordinary fruit.

Special power, homologous essence.

This fruit... was tailor-made for her.

"Did Ke bring it?"

Bai Jing thought of the previous conversation with Xu Le, and it was obvious that Xu Le was a little disappointed in her at that time.

But now the other party sent another fruit.

"This may be my last chance and an ultimatum. What he told me..."

Picking up the fruit, Bai Jing put down other things.

Certificates, materials, those things are not necessary.

Only strength is.

Only with enough strength can she gain a foothold in this chaotic era and not be swayed.

Bai Jing stared at the fruit and bit into it.

The aroma is overflowing, and the cold current is possessed.

Bai Jing suddenly opened her eyes, and the pupils began to deform, from the original prototype pupils to vertical pupils.

And that's just the beginning, as the moon in the sky is obscured by a dark cloud.

Bai Jing, who was prostrate on the ground, grew a long tail.

drink! ~
……

On Chang Fengle's side, the process of offering sacrifices to the strange corpse lasted all day.

All the remaining tree shepherd members got the lightning fruit because of this sacrifice, and some got a second one.

He also had a share, and he didn't refuse or refuse, because this kind of fruit can be eaten continuously.

But the effect will be discounted.

If the effect of the first fruit eaten is 100, then the second fruit will probably only be 40-50.

If you continue to eat, there is still an effect, but the improvement will become smaller and smaller.

This is also the scary part of soul fruit.

As long as you work hard, you will be rewarded.

It's getting harder and harder to increase your strength, but it's actually not a problem, as long as you can see your own improvement, no one can refuse.

Even if the improvement is only a little bit, everyone will not refuse.

The distribution of fruits is very simple, according to work.

He doesn't take more, because there is no need for that.

This behavior also made his prestige among the tree shepherds more stable.

Even if his strength is not the strongest, it doesn't matter, as long as he can lead the tree shepherds to become stronger, then he is the leader.

After finishing the fruit distribution, Chang Fengle rubbed his forehead wearily.

Next, it's his personal time.

Returning to his own room, he lay on the bed and took a nap for a while, biting his lips so that he would not really fall asleep because of tiredness.

After about 30 minutes, Chang Fengle got up after confirming that there was really no one around.

Go from a secret passage next to a cabinet to the factory sewer.

The tree in the sewer had already absorbed a large number of strange corpses, even if the total amount absorbed was only one-tenth of the tree above, it was astonishing to Chang Fengle at this time.

"How many fruits will there be? 10? 20? It's really exciting."

Chang Fengle walked down expectantly, but when he saw the tree, he realized something was wrong.

It was different from what he had imagined...

There were not many fruits on the tree, and the situation of dozens of fruits waiting to be fed did not appear.

There is only one fruit.

A black fruit with a strange shape and a special smell... completely different from Chang Fengle's imagination.

"This fruit!"

Chang Fengle walked cautiously to the side of the fruit, even if he was a mercenary with little knowledge, he could tell the extraordinaryness of this fruit at a glance.

That feeling has surpassed the special fruit that Xu Le once gave to Bai Jing.

"Special fruit, is this the tree's reward?"

Chang Fengle picked off the fruit directly, and was about to put it in his arms and leave. After all, he couldn't stay here for long.

If you wait for a long time, it is easy to have problems.

But just as he collected the fruits, when he turned to go up, his footsteps stopped suddenly at the position of the steps.

"Hoo!~"

Chang Fengle took a deep breath, as if he was adjusting his emotions, or making some important decision.

He took out the fruit again, hesitated for a while before placing it in front of him, and finally bit into it.

The overflowing energy sublimated and satisfied Chang Fengle.

"Yes, if you don't have the strength, even if you get the power...you can't grasp it."

The growl echoed in the sewer, and the sound of tearing continued.

On the ground above the sewer, Xu Le and Alley were standing there wearing hoods.

He took a fruit out of the plastic bag and handed it to Allie, and took one himself.

Alley took a bite directly, and an electric current flowed into his body.

"This... fruit?"
