Vol 2 Chapter 176 The Lock in the Pupil Lv.64
Passing through the strange forest of blood-limbed trees, Sylutia finally saw the lone scarlet fruit hanging from a tall central branch. It pulsed as if with a heartbeat, emitting an eerie glow that lured creatures from afar.
Her gaze traced from the fruit to the adjacent blood-colored limb. It looked like a great tree formed from many desiccated arms fused together. One was especially huge, its fingers branching into twigs that stretched into the air. One of those branches drooped down, bearing the blood-red fruit.
[Blood Fruit] (Third Tier · Rare); a fruit imbued with special life force that many monsters can absorb to grow stronger. However, it also contains the Distortion aspect of the Twilight Sea. If normal life eats it, unpredictable mutations may occur.
A naturally produced Rare-grade fruit—no wonder so many monsters swarmed toward it. Sylutia looked at the fruit in the distance and made some mental calculations.
If one of the Third Tier monsters present ate it, many would gain a major boost. Two strong monsters with the Bloodline aspect eating it could even cross the threshold and advance to the Fourth Tier right then.
At this moment, six different Third Tier monsters were circling under the tree. They all wanted the fruit, but they were also wary of and obstructed by other nearby monsters.
Looks like there’s going to be a fight, Sylutia thought to herself.
To her, the fruit was rare but not indispensable. Coming here was more important for testing her various abilities.
