Chapter 987 - 987 Fruit
987 Fruit
Fang Heng squatted and pressed his hands on the magic array, pouring his spiritual power into it.
“Whoosh…” Red light swirled, and the magic array that had stopped moving started to work again.
Maica stared at the magic circle, feeling a little nervous.
“Ka, ka, ka…” As the magic array was activated, the ground of the cave began to shake.
Why was the reaction so strong?
Maica became increasingly uneasy, he asked in a low voice, “Fang Heng, will there be any problems?”
“No.”
After the activation of the magic array, Fang Heng immediately retracted his hand, stood up again, and retreated a few steps with Maica.
Fang Heng stared at the center of the magic array.
He knew very well that the three central magic arrays in the underground cave were all connected.
The efficiency of the magic array that had been modified by Jian Muzhi to form blood marrow was not high, so part of the energy was acc.u.mulated Inside the magic array.
Now that Fang Heng had restored the magic array, activating the seed would consume a large amount of energy. The remaining energy in the other two related magic arrays would thus be injected into the master array continuously.
“Eh? This…” Suddenly, Maica couldn’t help but gasp.
He was surprised to find that, under the activation of the magic array, a tiny seedling had actually emerged from the soil in the central region!
The tiny seedling seemed to possess an extremely powerful vitality. Under the support of the blood-colored magic array, it grew and sprouted at an extremely fast speed! The sapling grew into a tree trunk that quickly grew to half a meter!
Dense branches and leaves extended from the trunk.
A bright red fruit grew out of a branch.
The fruit grew bigger and bigger until it was the size of a fist. Another fruit also began to grow from another branch.
“That’s…”
Fang Heng was also shocked.
He stared at the two red fruits and frowned.
What was going on?
Isn’t this the seed of Angetas? Why would it bear fruit?
Did he make a mistake?
All of a sudden, Fang Heng’s heart moved, and the magic array that had been moving slowly suddenly darkened.
Maica turned his head to look at Fang Heng and asked anxiously, “Fang Heng? What’s wrong? Is there a problem with the magic array?”
“No, the energy that the magic array absorbed previously has been completely consumed. Now that the magic array is operating normally, it will need more energy to fully nourish the fruit.”
“Oh, so that’s how it is. Then, then that fruit…”
“We can’t wait.”
Fang Heng couldn’t wait for the second fruit to finish growing. He immediately walked to the sapling in the center of the magic array.
After observing the sapling for a while, Fang Heng squatted immediately and gently pushed away the soil below.
In the soil, one of the seeds had successfully sprouted and grown leaves. The remaining seed was still covered in a thin layer of red light, but its surface had completely cracked.
It seemed that the seed had been so damaged to the point that it could not germinate.
Fang Heng put away the exploded seed and shifted his gaze to the newly grown sapling.
A sapling that was more than half a meter tall was a huge difference compared to Angetas.
The most important thing was that Fang Heng couldn’t sense the violent lifeblood fluctuations like that of Angetas from the sapling. Instead, it exuded an extremely exuberant vitality.
Fang Heng was puzzled. He reached out his hand carefully and touched the fruit that had not fully grown.
Unexpectedly, the moment he touched it, the fruit fell off the branch. Fortunately, his reflexes were quick, and he grabbed the fruit in his hand.
Lines of game hints appeared on his retina.
[Hint: The player has received an unknown fruit]
[Item: Unknown fruit]
[Description: A fruit borne from an unknown seed of the sacred tree. The fruit contains powerful vitality. Due to the flaws of the seed itself, the effect of the fruit is greatly reduced.]
[Description: this fruit has not fully matured. Its effects are thus weakened.]
[Effect 1: The fruit contains a strong vitality. Consuming it will remove most negative effects. After consuming it, the consumer will recover 30% of his maximum HP per second for 20 seconds and gain the effect of Limb Regeneration.]
[Effect 2: ??? (Only effective for non-player vampires).]
[Effect 3: ??? (Only effective for non-player vampires).]
[Additional description: The power contained in the fruit is slowly dissipating. After 24 hours, the effect will be reduced by 30%. After 48 hours, the effect will be reduced by 60. After 72 hours, the fruit will be completely ineffective.]
“An unknown fruit…” Fang Heng muttered to himself.
Only one attribute in the description was effective for both vampires and players, while the other two were unknown attributes for non-player vampires.
The only effect was not bad.
Removing negative effects, 10% maximum HP recovery per second, plus limb regeneration…
Fang Heng couldn’t help but wonder, “Can Angetas bear fruit too? ”
“I’ve never heard of it either,” Maica walked to Fang Heng’s side and swallowed his saliva as he spoke, staring at the fruit in the latter’s hand with a burning gaze.
He could feel the powerful vitality and part of the lifeblood power contained in the fruit.
This was an instinct that came from his bloodline. To him, the fruit would be of great benefit!
Fang Heng saw Maica’s gaze and frowned, asking, “Do you want to try this fruit?”
“Yes.”
“Are you sure? This fruit might be very dangerous.”
The fruit’s attributes had limited effects on players, but it had two unknown effects on vampires.
However, there were risks.
Maica nodded his head quickly, “Fang Heng, I’m sure. I can feel that this thing will be of great help to me.”
“Eat!” Fang Heng immediately handed the fruit over.
He was Undead, so the recovery ability of the fruit was just the icing on the cake.
“Alright!” Maica didn’t pretend to be courteous. He took the fruit and stuffed it into his mouth.
The red fruit immediately turned into juice the moment it entered his mouth, flowing down his throat.
Maica’s pupils contracted.
The liquid turned into a ball of fire and merged into his limbs and bones!
Maica could feel the blood in his body boiling!
“Whoosh!!!”
Maica couldn’t help but take a few steps back, berserk lifeblood flowing out of his body!
At the same time, a layer of burning lifeblood appeared on his body!
Fang Heng narrowed his eyes. He could feel Maica’s lifeblood power rising rapidly.
After a full minute, the burning lifeblood on Maica gradually died down, and the lifeblood that was spreading uncontrollably from his body also stopped.
Maica raised his head, his eyes still bloodshot.
Hu!
Maica let out a heavy breath.
He turned around and looked at Fang Heng with a solemn expression. Then, he knelt on one knee, “Thank you, Your Majesty!”
Maica was extremely excited!
He had successfully advanced!
After consuming the unknown fruit, he had successfully improved himself from a vampire Marquis to a Duke.
An ordinary Marquis might not even be able to become a Duke after thousands of years of hard work, but he did it after eating just one fruit!
