Wizard, I Have Another World

Chapter 286 Golden Fruit Tree

"The Legend of Lens!"

"Lens!"

"..."

Along the way, people greeted the big man and cast curious glances at Karl.

"Lens!"

A red shadow flashed ahead, and a tall woman walked towards them, saying in a flippant tone:

"Training a newbie again?"

"Hmm." Lens stopped in his tracks, clearly somewhat wary of the newcomer.

"Josie, what are you doing here?"

"Nothing much?" Josie, who had also advanced to the late-stage Legendary level through normal means, scrutinized Karl, a slight smile playing on her lips.

"I'm also short of new talent, so why don't you let me have this opportunity?"

"No!" Lens's eyes narrowed.

"I don't have anyone on hand right now, and the elder's task is urgent. If you need people, you can wait for the next batch."

"Hmm..." Josie seemed to be thinking.

"I remember you just left here with two new recruits two weeks ago. Have you already used them up so quickly?"

"That's none of your business." Lens's face darkened.

"Connie, let's go!"

Carl glanced at Josie, smiled faintly, and continued walking with Lens.

"Connie?"

Josie watched the two leave, crossed her arms over her chest, and slowly began to speak:

"Be careful!"

"Father Lens was known as a newcomer killer; most of those who followed him met with bad ends."

"Shut up!" Lens turned and growled.

"Josie, don't think you can break the rules just because the Sixth Elder is watching you. The Second Elder is in charge here."

"Walk!"

Carl nodded thoughtfully to the other person before following.

A killer of newcomers?

Consumables?

……

Before he could think it through, the two had already arrived at a square. Lens glanced around and spoke to Karl:

"You received a potion to advance to legendary status as soon as you joined the Sanctuary, but you haven't actually carried out any missions yet."

"This time, the Second Elder wants us to pick a few golden fruits. You will come with me and be responsible for luring away the ferocious beasts guarding the golden fruits."

"Golden Fruit?" Karl's eyes flickered slightly.

"The legendary golden fruit that grows in the realm of the gods?"

The legend of the golden fruit is widely circulated.

Legend has it that a long, long time ago, a ship came to a deserted island where there was a peculiar fruit. Some of the crew members tasted the fruit out of curiosity.

result.

Soon after, all those who consumed the fruit turned into gold.

The crew members were initially shocked, then overjoyed, and brought back the golden statue that their companion had transformed into, making a fortune.

Later, some people went to search for that island, but never found it again. Legend has it that the island is located in the realm of the gods, and the fruit that can turn people into gold is called the Golden Fruit.

"Not bad." Lens nodded.

"Besides turning people into gold, the Golden Fruit is also a spiritual fruit containing primordial power. After consuming it, a Great Knight has a high chance of advancing to the Legendary rank. Of course..."

"The medicine you're taking is better."

As he spoke, a dry smile appeared on his face.

Carl scoffed at this.

The golden fruit is poison to ordinary people, but it is a rare tonic for the great knight.

Even legendary knights can be of great use.

And the desecration of the potion...

It will only turn people into monsters; it's just a matter of time.

"Father."

Karl opened his mouth:

"I have two friends, could they come with me on this mission?"

"Of course." Lens nodded.

"The ferocious beast guarding the golden fruit is a three-headed dog from hell, so naturally it's not just the two of us who will take action."

As expected, Rachel and Hume, as Carl's second-in-commands, carried out this mission together.

"The Holy Temple is indeed well-established; they even know where the Golden Fruit is."

Rachel gripped the spear tightly, her voice trembling with excitement:

"We made the right choice this time!"

"I've heard that the Sanctuary possesses a complete map of the divine realm and even has a way to find the fragments of the divine realm scattered across the continent," Hume added.

"Although the gods have fallen, there are still many treasures in the divine realm. If we could find them all..."

His eyes lit up, and his breathing became somewhat rapid.

Karl shook his head slightly.

He had been to the God Realm, though it was the Collapsed God Realm, and it wasn't as wonderful as he had imagined.

However, it's true that the sanctuary contains the legacy of the moon goddess and one can find some good things there.

Take this golden fruit, for example.

"pity!"

"I've already cultivated the Saintly Demon Transformation to the seventh level. The Golden Fruit is useless to me now. If I were at the third level, consuming the Golden Fruit would allow me to quickly advance to the fourth level. However, it's a good thing for Rachel and Hume."

Composing himself, Karl turned his head to look.

Not far away, the leaves rustled, and a man and a woman appeared in the scene with five short figures dressed in black robes.

The church uniforms are strictly hierarchical.

The person in the gold-trimmed red robe is an elder, the person in the black-trimmed red robe is a priest, and the person in the silver-trimmed white robe is a novice priest.

Unlike the main world where Karl lives, the priests here, having lost the blessing of the Moon Goddess, can no longer perform divine magic and are now purely knights.

Most of the novice priests were high knights.

As for Karl...

Legends who advance by taking blasphemous potions are clearly not part of the Sanctuary's hierarchy and are considered outsiders.

"Connie?"

The male novice priest nodded:

"Let's go, let's lure Cerberus away."

"Cerberus is a second-tier creature. What can we possibly do against just a few of us?" Rachel frowned.

"Even if Connie has become a legendary knight, he is certainly no match for Cerberus."

"Don't worry." The female novice priest said indifferently.

"Our mission is to lure it away, not kill it, and besides, Connie has other helpers."

He pointed to the five thin figures beside him as he spoke.

Rachel and Hume looked puzzled. These five people didn't exude any special aura; they seemed like teenagers who hadn't grown up yet. How much of a role could they play?

Karl, however, knew very well that these five people were likely five blasphemous knights, each comparable to a legend.

Even stronger!

Let's go!

After glancing at it casually, Karl spoke slowly:

"Which direction?"

"Come with me."

The male novice priest took out a stick, shook off the dead branches and vines in front of him, and leaped forward first.

Not long after.

The group arrived at a dense forest, where thick fog made it difficult to see the surroundings.

They continued on their journey for a short while.

"look!"

Rachel's eyes lit up, and she whispered:

"A golden tree!"

But in the center of the dense forest, a tree stood taller than the others.

The tree trunks and leaves looked as if they were made of pure gold, still shining brightly under the cover of mist.

Take a closer look.

Several bright orange fruits adorn the fruit, scattered among the leaves.

The trees are somewhat similar in shape to apple trees, but they are thicker and more robust, reaching a height of about forty or fifty meters.

"That's the golden fruit tree."

The female novice priest's voice trembled:

"Legend has it that in the core of the divine realm, there is a mother tree of the Golden Fruit Tree, which is a rare fifth-tier plant."

"Connie!"

Her voice turned serious:

"It's your turn."

"Um."

Carl had long since seen the golden fruit tree, and even more so, the two three-headed hellhounds lurking beneath it.

Both ends?

This is inconsistent with the intelligence.

He stroked his chin, drew his broadsword, and with a low growl, lunged at the golden fruit tree.

While suspended in mid-air, the broadsword flipped.

Gale Slash!

His swordsmanship, which he hadn't used for decades, was still skillful; the blade, accompanied by a whistling wind, slashed down.

A sword aura, several meters long, appeared.

"what?"

Father Lens, hidden in the distance, murmured in surprise:

"Impressive swordsmanship!"

What he saw was not only the swordsmanship, but also the sharp and pure sword intent, no wonder it could withstand the corrosive effects of the blasphemous potion.

Perhaps...

With proper training, this Connie could have the potential to become a second-tier Blasphemous Knight.

In the blink of an eye, the sword energy had already struck the three-headed hellhound, and a deafening roar resounded.

Second order!

"escape!"

Karl shouted and turned to run away.
