Everyone Becomes Demonized: I Become A Six-Winged Seraph - Chapter 36

Chapter 36: Everyone’s Strength Had Increased

“What is it?”, Father Marlin asked.

“It’s about the civilians,”, Hubert said, “Richard came to remind me this time. Not only are we taking in the civilians, but those big forces are also taking in the civilians. However, those people have ulterior motives. They are trying to support themselves by ruling over the civilians. Or to achieve some unspeakable secrets. I think we should speed up the process of taking in the civilians. At least, we can save more people from the hands of those big forces. Let more people who are worthy of being saved receive help.”

“This proposal is very good. I believe that God will also approve of our actions. But how exactly should we carry it out?”, Father Marlin asked.

“We can put up posters at the entrance. Anyone who passes the test and is willing to work can enter the sanctuary.”, Hubert said.

“I can understand if they are willing to work. After all, there are not enough people in the sanctuary at the moment. But what is the test?”, Father Marlin asked in confusion.

“It is to pass my review. I don’t want people with ulterior motives to sneak into the sanctuary and destroy our hard-won results,”, Hubert said.

In his previous life, he had seen too many incidents where the shelters had fallen because of internal conflicts or traitors.

This time, he was determined to maintain the principle of ‘Better to lack in something rather than taking the shoddy goods’.

He had to put quality before quantity, every person who joined had to go through his review.

At least, under the inspection of the Eyes of Good and Evil, he could guarantee that there would not be any heinous scoundrels sneaking in.

“Then why don’t we go somewhere far away to publicize it? That way, you can recruit more people.”, Father Marlin suggested.

“No, the overall strength of you guys is still too low. The environment outside is still quite chaotic. If you go out recklessly, you might be in danger,”, Hubert said.

“But, I don’t know how to improve everyone’s strength. If we train, I don’t know where to start.”, Father Marlin said.

“It doesn’t matter. I’ve already found a solution,”, Hubert said and asked Sophia to help bring the backpack over.

The backpack was filled with red fruits. They were so red that it made people drool. They couldn’t help but want to eat one.

Even Father Marlin couldn’t help but want to take one and taste it.

“This is a special enchanted fruit that I found. After eating it, people can advance to level 2.”, Hubert said.

“Then how should we distribute it?”, Father Marlin looked at the fruits. Apparently, it was not enough for everyone to distribute it.

“I have already thought about it. First, I will distribute the fruits to the people in charge of the battle. I will let a portion of the people improve their strength. Then, I will set up a reward system. Whoever completes the work the best will be rewarded with a portion of the fruits so that everyone has a way to obtain them.”, Hubert took out the distribution system that he had thought of.

This was the most equal and most reasonable distribution model that he had seen in his previous life in the various shelters.

At least, it was much better than the distribution model where the top rulers ate up most of the resources themselves.

“Okay then, let’s distribute according to your plan.”, Father Marlin thought about it and decided to follow Hubert’s plan. There was no better distribution model.

During lunch, Father Marlin announced the distribution plan for the enchanted elemental fruit.

As expected, he received good reviews from everyone.

Then, Father Marlin distributed the first batch of fruits to everyone.

Chloe, Linda, Bob, and those who performed well on the night of the devouring rat’s attack were all rewarded with two enchanted elemental fruits.

As for Miranda, she was also rewarded with two fruits for her hard work in preparing three meals for everyone.

Chloe was the first to swallow the enchanted elemental fruit.

After the fruit was swallowed, Chloe felt a surge of heat in her body. The few green vines on her body grew even more luxuriant, and even grew a few emerald leaves.

Chloe closed her eyes to feel for a moment. Suddenly, she opened her eyes and her hand. A pea the size of a ping-pong ball suddenly appeared in her palm.

Chloe tried to throw the pea.

With a boom, the pea shattered a set of armor that was placed in the corner. From the looks of it, the power of the explosion was almost equal to the power of a grenade.

“Wow!”, when everyone saw the power of the pea explosion in Chloe’s hand, they could not help but suck in a breath of cold air and exclaim at the power of the explosion.

At the same time, their eyes were filled with envy. They were looking forward to obtaining such a superpower.

“Very good. Chloe, Congratulations on leveling up to level 2 and comprehending your own superpower. However, due to your recklessness, you caused damage to the canteen. Hence, you will be punished to clean up the canteen after lunch.”, Hubert said from the side.

“Hahaha.”, the people below all laughed loudly.

Chloe’s face instantly turned red.

“I know.”, Chloe stuttered as he sat down.

Next to him, Bob had also eaten the enchanted elemental fruit and was now closing his eyes to understand the use of his power.

“Bob, how was it? Did you get anything?”, Hubert asked.

Bob didn’t say anything but stretched out his hand.

A pea also appeared on his hand, but this pea was burning with a flame, making it seem more dangerous.

“What’s the specific function?”, Hubert asked.

“Well, the power is about the same as sister Chloe’s, but with the burning effect.”, Bob said after thinking for a while.

“Not bad. It’s good to have the ability, but you still need to keep practicing to really use the ability.”, Hubert said.

This was the realization of his five years of living in the Cataclysm.

Those abilities that were obtained through advancement could only be truly mastered through a lot of practice, and only then could they truly become a part of one’s own power.

Otherwise, one would only become a slave controlled by their powers, and eventually be crushed by it.

“I understand. I’ll work hard.”, Bob nodded and replied.

Linda and Miranda also ate the fruit.

The energy that Linda obtained was the shell’s sturdiness and rapid recovery.

Through experiments, Linda’s shell was already able to block the shots of assault rifles, and rapid recovery was under the premise that there was enough food. Linda could quickly recover from any injury.

As for Miranda, she obtained a full french fry skill.

The effect of the skill was that the french fries growing on her head could be removed and eaten. Every time she ate one, she could obtain the energy provided by a meal.

After learning about this skill, Hubert was shocked.

This skill was simply a miracle. With Miranda’s skill, it was equivalent to having a human-shaped grain warehouse. The church could at least take in a few hundred more civilians.

After distributing the fruits, Hubert handed the two fruits to Father Marlin.

Father Marlin was about to decline when Hubert stuffed them into his hands. “When I’m not around, you’re the highest authority in the sanctuary. If your strength is too low, it’ll be difficult to convince the people.”

Father Marlin thought for a moment and swallowed the fruit.

After swallowing it, the leaves on Father Marlin’s body became greener, and the branches became thicker. A new type of fruit grew on the branches on his head.

This fruit was called the Fruit of Joy. After eating it, one would be in a good mood for the whole day, forgetting their worries and anxieties.
