Greem sat quietly in the secret room, silently flipping through the Book of Darkness. From time to time, some incomplete words or damaged spell models appeared on the exquisite and gorgeous pages.
Whenever this happens, the blue light in Greem's eyes flashes, and he will forcibly memorize it and put it into the chip database.
After so many years of precipitation and accumulation, the amount of information stored in his mind has become too much to count. If there wasn't a chip silently sorting and summarizing behind it, I'm afraid it would be difficult for him alone to sort out the tens of thousands of broken information.
Find treasures and advanced knowledge.
However, just when he was happily sacrificing his mental power in exchange for the scattered knowledge fragments in the Book of Darkness, a familiar mental wave gently touched the witch tower's protection.
Persistent and determined, full of the flavor of never giving up until the goal is achieved!
Greem sighed and finally opened a defensive gap.
The aura of Gumanreth's remnant soul spread in again.
"Hey kid, I remembered another good thing!"
"Think about it... Lord Gumanres, you have already remembered five or six good things. But either they are in a dangerous situation or a damaged demiplane, and there is a red dragon in it.
, there are divine evils... I can get every one of them easily!" At this point, Greem couldn't help but snorted: "Tell me, why should I continue to trust you?"
"Boy, you have to forgive me! My soul has been beaten to pieces. Now I'm so weak that I can't do anything. It's so difficult to even retrieve my previous memories..." When it comes to this,
The remnant soul of Gumanreth is full of complaints.
"Stop, stop, stop..." Greem interrupted it quickly, fearing that it would talk incessantly like before, just like a talkative person reincarnated: "What do you have to say? If not, I will be busy myself!"
"No, boy, I really thought of a good thing this time, and you can use it at your current level..."
"There is no ancient red dragon to guard the door?"
"No! I promise not..."
"Isn't it a desperate situation in a certain plane?"
"No! You are too worried. There are not so many desperate situations in the fire elemental plane..."
"Then come and listen..."
“Have you ever heard of ‘Bliss Fruit’?”
"Paradise Fruit?" Greem hesitated for a moment, and the chip in his mind quickly checked the information, and sure enough he made some discoveries: "You mean those 'Paradise Fruits' that can extremely stimulate mental power and cause people to have mental hallucinations in a short period of time?
"
"Since you know it, it saves me the trouble of talking... Let me tell you, ordinary Paradise Fruits do have serious side effects, but these Paradise Fruits I tell you are improved and excellent products.
It has the powerful effect of boosting spiritual power!”
"How is the effect?" Greem immediately became energetic.
Now he has no shortage of resources, treasures, materials, and knowledge. The only thing he lacks is time. He needs a long time to meditate and accumulate slowly, and to improve his mental power bit by bit. As long as his mental power reaches the standard, he will advance to level 6.
It’s also a matter of course!
Therefore, when he suddenly heard that the other party had a way to quickly increase his mental power, Greem immediately paid attention.
"When I got these Paradise Fruits, I was already at the 8th level. Its mental power improvement was of no use to me. I just used it as a recreational product. As for you... I estimate that a hundred of them can raise you to the 8th level.
Level 6!”
"Really!" Greem's eyes showed a look of shock, and he immediately asked impatiently: "Where are those Paradise Fruits you mentioned? How many are there? How can I get them?"
"The growth of the Paradise Fruit requires extremely harsh conditions, so naturally it will not be placed in the fire elemental plane. It was a resource secret realm given to me by a strong man from another plane when I was the Flame Lord. There are huge quantities in it.
After so many years, there should be a lot of inventory in it!" However, the remnant soul of Gumanres suddenly turned around and said: "Boy, as long as you sacrifice a godhead fragment to me, I will have the energy to open the secret realm of resources and put the
Take out those Paradise Fruits. In this way, you will be well, I will be well, everyone will be well..."
"What do you mean, I will sacrifice the fragments of the godhead first, and then you are not sure whether you can give me something?" Greem hesitated, with a dangerous light flashing in his eyes.
"Boy, any gain must be paid for! If you want to get the fruit of bliss, you have to bear certain risks. Besides, I am just a remnant soul. To recover, the energy required is far beyond your imagination.
One godhead fragment is far from enough... Do you think I went to all this trouble just to deceive you into a godhead fragment? Hey, I don't want to have a good relationship with you, you just want to get level 6 resources with just a godhead fragment.
Paradise fruit? Huh..."
Listening to the other party's deception, Greem finally couldn't help but feel his heart beat.
If it were any other wizard who only had one or two fragments of the godhead in his hand, he would not even dare to try it. He would definitely have to pay the price with one hand and deliver the goods with the other hand.
However, Greem still has 6 godhead fragments in his hand.
Such a generous pocket gave him the confidence to give it a try!
After much hesitation, Greem finally sacrificed a godhead fragment at the altar in the witch tower. Last time, the object of sacrifice in the world was the consciousness of the fire elemental plane, but this time he chose this ancient man thunder.
Si's remaining soul.
As the altar of the world swallowed up the fragments of the godhead, the remnant soul that was hiding somewhere suddenly raised its neck and let out a long and thought-provoking utterance.
"Stop talking about it now, the ghost is screaming, give me the things quickly!" Greem urged impatiently.
"What's the rush? I'll give it to you!"
As a strange light and shadow changed above the altar, a gap opened inexplicably in the void, revealing a miniature secret realm of resources. Through an illusory light curtain, it was difficult to see the specific contents inside.
But the next moment when Greem was in shock, the light curtain opened a small opening, and a group of white light points poured out like raindrops from inside, falling on the altar and forming a small mountain.
Then the light curtain closed, the void closed, and everything disappeared without a trace!
Greem silently examined the void, feeling the magic of the secret realm of the void for the first time. After a long time, he lowered his head and slowly looked at these trading items.
This is a strange white translucent berry, each about the size of a fist, with thin skin and no seeds, and milky white pulp flowing inside.
As soon as they appeared, the whole place was filled with a refreshing and strange fragrance.
Lift your nose and smell it, it will really refresh your mind and spirit!
"Boy, this is the fruit of bliss you deserve! Let's settle things..." Gumanres's remnant soul simply explained and walked away.
Greem glanced at it, and the chip quickly came up with a more accurate number.
20 pieces!
That Gumanres seems to have said that if he eats 100 fruits, he can be promoted to level 6. There are only 20 in front of him. This is obviously that the other party has identified his weakness and is preparing to use these bliss fruits to remove as many pieces of the godhead in his hand as possible.
They were all scammed.
Such a small thought was obvious at a glance, but Greem didn't pay attention to it.
To be honest, if you can pay 5 godhead fragments to advance to level 6 in a short period of time, the deal is worth it!
And Gumanreth is so attached to the fragments of the godhead, could they really be of great help to its remaining soul?
With infinite reverie, Greem put away these Paradise Fruits and turned around to return to his residence.
In a secret room, Greem couldn't wait to pierce a Paradise Fruit with a dagger, and extracted some of the strange milky white liquid pulp from it.
He would not completely believe in the elusive remnant soul. Whether it was effective or not still needed to be verified by himself. Anyway, with the chip, the effect of this paradise fruit can definitely be detected.
With the help of a sophisticated alchemy laboratory and a detection witch formation, Greem quickly came up with an answer that made him excited.
It works...really works!
The remnant soul of Gumanres did not lie. This fruit of paradise does have the strange effect of stimulating the mental space and causing the mental power to skyrocket again. However, its powerful mental psychedelic effect is also very serious.
Even with Greem's spiritual tenacity, it would probably take more than a month to get rid of the mental hallucinogenic effects after taking one. From this, it can be speculated that Gumanreth probably used these Paradise Fruits back then.
Used as a psychoactive hallucinogen.
With the powerful mental power of high-level creatures and their strict control over their own mental power, they almost never dream!
Therefore, if you want to indulge yourself, you can only use the 'poison fruit' with strong hallucinogenic effects!
After discovering that there was nothing wrong with the Paradise Fruit and that it was as effective as Remnant Soul said, Greem no longer hesitated and swallowed one immediately.
It has to be said that the power of the level 6 hallucinogenic ‘poison fruit’ is indeed astonishing. After taking one, Greem was immediately dragged into an illusion that was both illusion and reality by the terrifying medicinal properties.
This terrifying medicinal effect lasted for two full days before Greem finally broke out of the illusion under the stimulation and guidance of the chip. However, once the medicinal effect strikes back for the second time, Greem may be stuck in it for even longer.
long.
In order to resist the hallucinogenic effect, Greem swallowed a lot of potions to enhance mental resistance in one breath, and then relied on his own efforts to exclude the negative components of the Paradise Fruit bit by bit.
It took Greem a full month and a half to expel all the harmful ingredients from the first Paradise Fruit. And during these arduous and long days of fighting against illusions, Greem's mental strength really improved by leaps and bounds.
type of leap.
53 points!
After trying the first Paradise Fruit, Greem's mental power increased to 53 points!
