Chapter 31: Luminous Fruit

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

In the second that the lightning disappeared, Cole found that his manor was in a huge forest that stretched as far as the eye could see.

“A big forest? They sure know how to pick a place for me.”

The sudden appearance of the manor immediately attracted the attention of the ferocious beasts in the forest. The ferocious beasts felt that something that could allow them to evolve was in the manor that had suddenly appeared.

For a moment, a hundred beasts surged, and the ferocious beasts rushed towards the manor like a tide.

Cole also took out his two blaster guns and stared at the stone wall.

Bang! Bang!

The stone wall kept on making sounds as countless ferocious beasts kept hitting the stone wall. They wanted to make the stone wall fall down, but the stone wall still did not move.

After crashing for a full minute, some ferocious beasts finally found an opening and rushed into the manor through the opening.

Just as the beasts were drooling and rushing into the manor through the small path, several simple incendiary bombs smashed onto their body. The gasoline was instantly ignited, and the beasts cried out strangely. All of its muscles were swallowed by the gasoline, and finally, they fell weakly to the ground. They let out a final groan.

“The gasoline incendiary bombs are still very effective against these beasts.”

More and more beasts began to rush into the gap. The Astartes kept throwing incendiary bombs in their hands, burning these beasts to death. Cole kept commanding, but he did not notice that a huge ranking projection was appearing above the manor, and his position was constantly rising.

“Focus on the gap! Don’t look around randomly. After you’ve thrown the incendiary bombs, you can shoot! Don’t be stingy! If the spirit ability group needs Energy Fruit, tell me! Don’t hold it back!”

“The incendiary bombs will be delivered soon! Don’t be stingy! Hit every single one of them hard on these guys!”

Another five hundred incendiary bombs were thrown out. This time, the burning flames at the gap stopped the ferocious beasts. They retreated as if it was premeditated, as if they were waiting for something.

“Commander, those guys seem to have retreated?”

“Hmph! Those ferocious beasts will give up on me? We must not let our guard down. Cicarius, get your men to throw out the corpses of those ferocious beasts. The gap needs to be wide enough for shooting.”

“Yes, my Lord!”

Cole raised his head to look at the sky. He saw the huge projection of the ranking board, but he was more concerned about the color of the sky at this time. The sunlight had slowly dissipated, and it was almost nighttime.

“The forest at night is even more dangerous than during the day. I have to get something that can shine.”

Cole opened the Trading Mall. Although there were still a lot of goods in the Trading Mall, there was basically nothing that Cole needed. After searching for a long time, Cole finally found a seller who sold Luminous Fruits.

[Luminous Fruit]

[Effect: Able to emit light that covers several kilometers. Lasts for eight hours.]

“This is it!”

Although the price of the fruit would be higher during this special period, it was usually cheaper for fruits that didn’t have much help in fighting. Cole threw three intermediate-level Energy Fruits into the Trading Mall and took away the three Luminous Fruits.

“Plant one first. The two fruits in my hand will have to last through today and tomorrow.”

The sky was completely dark. As the red moon rose from the east, the ferocious beasts began to howl again.

“Sure enough, they will be even more excited at night.”

Cole whispered a few words and threw a Luminous Fruit into the sky. At the same time, he raised the blaster gun in his hand and blew up the Luminous Fruit with one shot.

It was as if dozens of flares exploded in the air. The previously blocked vision was also illuminated. The ferocious beasts that had already entered the gap did not have time to retreat before they were burned into ashes by the incendiary bombs.

“Fire! Fire!”

All of the B1 Battle Droids and Astarts that were defending the gap opened fire at the same time.

Countless bullets and incendiary bombs exploded in the air. Gunpowder and bombs echoed in the forest along with the screams of the ferocious beasts. The ferocious beasts were slightly dumbfounded.

‘No, isn’t night the home of the ferocious beasts like us? Why are they fighting more fiercely than us?’

“Kill them all! Leave none alive! Shoot all of them! Shoot all the bullets!”

Cole split into several doppelgangers. Like him, he held a blaster gun and walked through the gaps, killing one ferocious beast after another.

He didn’t expect that killing the ferocious beasts would make him so happy.

‘Indeed, a person’s bones are filled with the desire to kill!’

The flames burned for an entire night, and the sound of gunshots reverberated throughout the night. Only when the sky turned white did the remaining beasts slowly retreat.

Cole stood on the mountain piled with the corpses of the beasts. Cole opened his mouth and roared at the retreating beasts.

“Noob! I’ve been fighting for an entire night, and you can’t even get through the gap! Come again if you have the ability!”

Raising his gun once more, Cole fired several explosive shots into the sky.

The sound of gunfire resounded through the forest once more.

When he returned to the small wooden house, the mental stimulation in his body had already subsided. All Cole wanted now was to have a good sleep.

Just as he lay on the bed and was about to fall asleep, several notifications suddenly rang out.

[The first wave of defense has ended. Starting to calculate the defense points of the Tree Masters.]

[After each wave of defense is over, the ranking board will automatically calculate the defense points. When the four waves of invasion are over, the top five defense points will be awarded with special rewards.]

“Can you stop making so much noise? I, Cole, am dying of exhaustion. I want to sleep!”

Cole covered his ears with his hands and covered his face with his clothes. He immediately fell asleep.

Not long after Cole fell asleep, the Astarts and the B1 Battle Droids were cleaning up the battlefield when an arrow suddenly flew out of the forest and hit a B1 Battle Droid. The arrow fell to the ground and the arrowhead turned into scrap metal. The B1 Battle Droid that was hit looked behind with some confusion.

“I felt like something hit me just now.”

“Don’t be lazy. There are still many things we need to do.”

“Roger roger.”

The figure that shot the arrow quickly retreated into the forest. His figure was like a bird flying freely in the forest. In the end, this figure appeared under the largest tree in the forest.

“Lord Priest.”

A green figure slowly walked out from behind the tree. It had sharp ears and a tall figure. This was the beloved child of the forest, an elf.

“Ante, what did you find out?”

“Lord Priest, the battle with the ferocious beasts in that place that suddenly appeared lasted for a day and a night. The combatants didn’t suffer many losses, and the defense was still very strong.”

The priest turned his head to look at the enormous tree behind him.

“The World Tree has already given an oracle. It needs the Divine Tree in that place to recover its power.”

“Whatever it takes..”
