Chi Xiao saw Xu Le's frown and thought it was because his fruit didn't turn out very well this time.
"Did the fruit turn out badly?"
Xu Le was silent for a moment. According to a more selfish approach, he should tell Chi Xiao to choose Jin Lei. In that case, through Chi Xiao, he might get a fruit that can strengthen the elemental electricity series.
But the risks of this approach, haha...
"No, Master Chixiao's fruit is very good, and there are very valuable things in it, such as advanced creatures - giants.
After all, it is an advanced creature. Although it does not sound as domineering as the blue dragon last time, such a fruit should be a very powerful fruit, right?"
Xu Le didn't lie to Chi Xiao, he felt it was unnecessary.
Fooling a strong man? Xu Le believes that his life will be very long in the future, and if he does not die, his cooperation with Chi Xiao will also be very long. This approach is a bit stupid.
He knew that Chi Xiao took a fancy to his potential, which is why the two parties were able to cooperate in such a stable manner.
But the actual situation is... he also takes a fancy to the hidden benefits that Chi Xiao brings to him.
Even if you have money, you can't buy mid- to high-grade fruits.
As long as the cooperation between the two parties is deep enough, the relationship between him and Chi Xiao will gradually become stable.
And because of Chixiao's own strength, mid-to-high-level fruits will almost appear every time during the Red Moon Tribulation.
This is an area that Xu Le will be completely unable to touch for a long time in the future.
It can be said that the only channel for high-level fruits is Chixiao.
That's why he won't hide it.
"Since there is a superior giant, isn't that a good result? Why are you still looking like this?"
Xu Le secretly glanced at Chi Xiao, and finally told the truth:
"Because there is an intermediate element inside - golden thunder."
Chi Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, this choice was a bit interesting.
Golden thunder, one of the thunders of conjuration, is part of the thunder that can be used by lightning magicians, and has the effects of judgment and purification.
The power is very outstanding.
As an intermediate elemental fruit, Golden Thunder already has extremely high value.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is one of the most valuable intermediate elemental fruits.
But now the target is a superior creature - the giant. So the question is, will the value of the golden thunder be higher than that of the giant?
After all, one is intermediate and the other is advanced.
"I remember, your elementalization is low-level electricity, right? You really want golden thunder?"
Xu Le nodded, since the words were said for this reason, there was no need for him to hide anything.
"Yes, I really need the powerful destructive power of the golden thunder to make up for my current lack of elemental current power."
Xu Le's fighting style is flexible and changeable, but it would be nonsense to say that it has no shortcomings.
He obviously lacks the ability to unleash large-scale attacks at will, and each ability is extremely restrictive.
If he had Jin Lei, then his shortcomings would not be completely compensated, but he would more or less look like a master.
Chi Xiao nodded. She did not directly agree to Xu Le and say that the fruits would be given away for free.
But there was no clear rejection either.
After a moment of silence, she slowly said:
"I can choose Jinlei, but I also want to know what kind of price you can offer."
When Xu Le heard Chi Xiao's promise, he felt excited.
As for the price...
Xu Le began to think about the value of the fruit he chose once.
If you use simple numerical values to compare.
Assume that each time Chi Xiao appears, the fruits are worth 1+1+3+5+10, corresponding to two junk fruits, one longevity, one intermediate, and one high-level.
Then the total value of the fruit is 20, 1/5 of the value, which is 4.
Chixiao’s selection value is guaranteed to be 4 each time.
Although Golden Thunder is an intermediate level, the current situation is to replace the giant, so it must be calculated based on 10 compared to the high-level fruit.
Each time I help Chi Xiao choose 10, in terms of value, I earn 6 each time.
With 2 free choices, you can pay the value of the fruit.
This sounds exaggerated, but it's true.
However, Xu Le felt that twice would definitely not work, and he should show more sincerity.
Because he wants to do things like credit, loans... interest should be paid.
so.
"Except for this time, I can use three free Red Moon Tribulation fruit choices in exchange for this Golden Thunder Fruit."
Chi Xiao was slightly startled. She originally thought Xu Le's idea was to make some future promises.
Do things for yourself, or accumulate wealth in exchange for something like that.
But I didn't expect that he would directly offer the fruit in exchange.
The value of fruit selection is...a bit interesting.
"The value of choosing the best fruit three times is indeed more than an intermediate elemental fruit, but there is a premise... I have a high-level fruit every time.
If there are no high-level fruits, the value of your choice will be greatly reduced, haven't you considered this?"
"I think with Master Chixiao's strength, it is normal for a high-level fruit to appear every time.
Master Chixiao has not obtained so many high-level fruits before, mainly because you have not met me."
Hasn't Xu Le considered advanced fruits?
Of course he has considered it! But now he has to brag about Chi Xiao and brag about his abilities.
As long as a high-level fruit appears in Chi Xiao, he will definitely help her get it.
Only in this way can you reflect your outstanding value.
Chi Xiao smiled. She already understood what Xu Le was thinking. She was not in a hurry, but instead said in deep thought:
"Although I am very confident in my abilities, I don't fight with all my strength every time during the Red Moon Tribulation. If I don't kill many monsters, I won't be able to accumulate the blessings of the Mother Tree.
Therefore, I am not likely to be rewarded with high-level fruits every time during the Red Moon Tribulation."
After hearing Chi Xiao's words, Xu Le said directly:
"If there are no high-level fruits, or intermediate or mysterious fruits of equal value, it will only be counted as half a time."
He's anxious! He's anxious!
Xu Le's current performance, at least in Chi Xiao's eyes, is this.
Yes, Xu Le also felt anxious.
And Xu Le had no choice but to be impatient. After all, for people like them who could use the Realm of the Mother Tree, the amplification intensity of obtaining elemental fruits was simply too great.
He couldn't act so calm.
If you miss this fruit, you have to wait 3 months.
Because in daily life, even if fruits of the same level appeared, he would not be able to afford them.
Even if he could afford it, he wouldn't be able to withstand the whirlpool of power behind a fruit.
And after 3 months, there may not be fruits of the same attribute.
By then, March after March, his strength progress will be delayed. If he encounters any battle or other things, if he loses a piece of fruit power, he will lose a piece of strength.
Then I didn't hit anyone else, and then I became cold.
So if you can’t get this fruit, if you round it off, it’s like a narrow escape!
Can't be in a hurry.
Chi Xiao stood up and held the golden thunder element in his hand.
"I see that you really want this fruit. You are right. Your fruit selection ability is also of great value to me.
Just three times. I will fight with all my strength during these three Red Moon Tribulations.
I hope your fruit selection ability will not disappoint me, so how about I hand this fruit over to you after selecting it three times?"
Seeing that Chi Xiao had made his choice, the stone in Xu Le's heart finally fell.
As long as the fruit is there, other things are easy to talk about!
Xu Le did not agree immediately, but said slightly coyly:
"Well, actually, um... I mean, can you give me the fruit first?"
Chi Xiao was slightly startled, what kind of thing is Xu Le?
Advance payment in advance? Try to pay on credit? Or...want to have sex for nothing?
Chi Xiao almost laughed at him:
"You also said that this fruit doesn't count, so you still want this fruit even though you haven't even paid yet?
Xu Le, if I directly take down Jin Lei, I am very sincere.
Are you a little too shameless for this kind of transaction? Do you really think that I am a fool?"
"No, no, Master Chixiao, I definitely didn't mean that. Please listen to me and tell you in detail!"
"Tell me, let me see how careful you are."
"The thing is, I can no longer stand in the lighthouse, so I have now returned to my hometown, which is Zion.
Although it is my home, I haven’t been back for several years and I am no longer familiar with the place.
After returning to Zion, I will first seek a new job and may also encounter new dangers.
Let me tell you, although my personal abilities are very good, I still need some trump cards to face the unpredictable dangers of the dark age, blah blah blah..."
Xu Le spoke the next three thousand words eloquently, and Chi Xiao actually listened carefully to the end.
It was not until the end, when Xu Le himself felt a little embarrassed, that he asked:
"Lord Chixiao, are you listening?"
"Yes, to sum up, you don't want to give money, but you also want fruits."
Xu Le lowered his head and whispered:
"Um, didn't I mention the choice of fruit three times?"
Chi Xiao pondered for a while, as if he suddenly lost interest.
"Okay, that's it."
Chi Xiao left the realm of the mother tree directly. When Xu Le was a little surprised and disappointed, he suddenly discovered that the golden thunder fruit was actually left on the stone where Chi Xiao often sat.
Xu Le quickly picked up the fruit.
"Thank you, Lord Chixiao, thank you!"
When Xu Le thought Chi Xiao had left, her voice came again:
"Take good care of your cat."
Xu Le was slightly startled.
"Chixiao, is it really related to Ding Ke? Ding Ke's identity..."
Forget it, isn't it just a waste of your time to think about so many things that you can't figure out?
Compared with those, it is more meaningful to cultivate and grow honestly.
When he grows up, Ding Ke won't be able to hide himself.
"It's almost time to go back!"
Xu Le carefully took the fruit and walked quickly into the darkness to let his consciousness escape from the realm of the mother tree.
Returning to reality, Xu Le raised his right hand.
The intermediate element-Golden Thunder Fruit is in his hand.
Occasionally, golden thunder and lightning spread around this fruit.
But at this time, the sound outside was already very noisy, and some airship passengers were knocking on the door vigorously.
"How are the people inside? I see you have been in there for an hour. What are you doing?
Are you using contraband inside?"
"Yes, if you don't come out again, I will report you!"
"That's right."
Because I have occupied the toilet for so long, there is already something going on outside.
There are only 6 toilets on the airship, 2 in each area.
Although the second-class seat area where Xu Le was located was not as crowded as the third-class seat area, there were still quite a few people.
After Xu Le occupied a toilet, only one toilet could be operated.
There must be something wrong with so many people.
He glanced at the Golden Thunder Fruit in his hand. The ever-diffusing lightning was so conspicuous that it was obvious even if it was placed in his pocket.
You can't take it out like this, it will definitely be noticed.
Xu Le knew that fruits of the same type could be used directly without side effects.
So, do you want to eat it directly now?
Xu Le did not let himself hesitate for too long, because the sound of knocking on the door became louder and louder.
He doubted if these people would break in directly if he continued like this.
In that case, it would be bad.
Xu Le stared at the Golden Thunder Fruit and took a bite.
As thunder and lightning filled his mouth, a taste like excrement also appeared.
Xu Le, who had experienced it twice, pinched his nose, took three mouthfuls at a time, and swallowed the fruit that tasted like shit.
boom!
Coincidentally, the toilet door was knocked open at this time.
"What's the matter with you?" A slightly taller man dressed as a student asked loudly.
But after he saw Xu Le's appearance, he couldn't ask any questions.
Several people behind him pulled him out. Many people were shouting:
"What's wrong, what's wrong? Let me see."
"Damn it, this guy is in the toilet...?"
At this time, some juice from the Golden Thunder Fruit flowed out of the corner of Xu Le's mouth. The golden liquid flowed down the corner of his mouth.
Coupled with Xu Le's painful appearance and the smell permeating the toilet, everyone's expressions were a little horrified.
"I didn't eat it!"
Xu Le opened his mouth, and the remaining golden fruit in his mouth suddenly appeared in the sight of these people. Coupled with the unique stench of the ancient Yinduo fruit, it instantly filled the air. Several girls backed away in fear, and even almost fell down.
"Don't come over here!"
Xu Le covered his face. It was over. Even if he jumped into the Yellow River, he couldn't wash it away.
He swallowed the remaining fruit in his mouth and walked out.
The people who originally surrounded Xu Le took the initiative to give way.
Nonsense, a mop stained with feces is like the reincarnation of the God of War. Who dares to mess with such a ruthless person?
Xu Le returned to his seat with some depression. He put his hand into his backpack. When he made sure that no one was staring at him, a golden electric current appeared in his hand.
"It's done!"
Meow!~Ding Ke looked at Xu Le strangely.
Why did Xu Le's thunder and lightning turn into gold when he turned his head?
And the smell on him, does he really eat shit?
Ding Ke rubbed his belly and began to think about some questions that he had never thought about before.
Xu Le felt a little excited. Unlike the lower-level elemental electricity, Golden Thunder was already a genuine power of thunder.
I just don’t know how strong the judgment and purification effects mentioned by Chi Xiao can be.
However, these matters need to be studied slowly after he settles down in Zion.
Not only the elemental fruits, but also the ability of the LV2 fortune teller, he needs to study carefully.
A warlock's research definitely requires a safe environment.
He borrowed more than 100,000 yuan on credit from Lighthouse and hasn't paid it back, and there's a good chance he won't have to pay it back now.
But after returning to Zion, he also needs resources, especially to nourish the second thunder fruit, which requires a large amount of ancient Yinduo relics.
How to find an organization that can obtain a large amount of money and resources has become particularly important.
"Huh, I hope everything goes well."
Xu Le took out the coffee powder in his suitcase, walked to the hot water and made himself a cup.
In the dark ages, coffee was relatively expensive.
Because although humans can be self-sufficient in food, every city-state will give priority to food issues.
Coffee is not necessary and is basically a semi-luxury product.
It's not surprising that Xu Le can afford such a drink, because he didn't pay for it.
With coffee in hand, Xu Le came to the observation deck of the airship. You can look down here, but most of the area is welded shut by iron fences.
Through the fence, Xu Le looked at the scenery on the ground.
Mountains, woods, rivers, and occasionally dilapidated cities.
Especially the tall buildings covered with green vegetation gave Xu Le a different kind of atmosphere.
"The scenery here is really nice! Humanity may perish, but it's really hard for a planet to perish!"
Meow meow!~
While Xu Le was sighing at the scenery, the previous students came to the observation deck chattering.
"Finally going back to Zion!"
"Ah, it's been almost a year, I miss you so much."
"Yeah, I can't wait to eat the braised pork rice and rabbit head from my hometown."
Xu Le was slightly surprised when he heard the tone of these people. These students seemed to be international students from Zion too?
Wouldn't that be the same as myself?
Of course, putting aside the issues of warlocks and night watchmen, in the memory of the original owner, he has almost forgotten how to be a foreign student.
I was a little confused before, but now...
After returning to Zion, his legitimate identity seems to have been settled.
Successful students who studied abroad resolutely gave up their high-paying careers in Lighthouse in order to build their hometown.
He returned to Zion alone and openly to contribute to his hometown.
This identity, this reason, 100 points.
The premise is that you need to look like a real international student, not only on the outside, but also on the inside, even if it is just a superficial level.
Xu Le looked at these students and took the initiative to say hello:
"Hi, are you also the international students from Zion to the Lighthouse?"
Several students looked at Xu Le and found out that he was the tough guy in the toilet just now, and their expressions became a little strange.
This guy actually took the initiative to talk to them? Do you want to answer?
The tall boy mocked directly:
"There's no toilet facilities here, and you didn't brush your teeth when you came out of the toilet, right?"
Xu Le frowned slightly. Although he also hated the man in front of him and even had the idea of teaching him a lesson, he still suppressed it.
After all, in the next few days, I need to learn as much information about Zion as possible from these people.
There are also actions that a student or scholar should have to learn quickly.
So, Xu Le pondered for a few seconds and then said:
“I think the purpose of reading is to make us understand things, know honor and disgrace, and then be restrained and self-effacing, strict with ourselves, and lenient with others.
It does not mean that if you know a few big words or know a few words, you will be superior to others and feel proud.
