In the year 2048, following the fall of a meteorite to Earth, an unknown gas was emitted. Subsequently, species globally began to mutate, and humanity was no longer at the apex of the food chain. C...
And that's when things got really interesting.
Wang Lan kept tapping the trees, causing the fruit to fall. Nan Chen kept picking up the fruit and eating it, while Aken kept piling up small mountains.
Strangely enough, these fruits were about the size of a palm and seemed quite filling, but Nan Chen ate dozens of them and still wasn't full.
Seeing that Nan Chen didn't say anything, Wang Lan continued to tap on the trees. The two people and the frog swept past like a whirlwind, until they had eaten all the fruit within a radius of nearly a hundred meters before they stopped.
Nan Chen had finished eating, and her belly was noticeably slightly protruding.
Aken kept licking the area around his lips with his tongue, savoring the taste.
Wang Lan walked up to Nan Chen and asked, "How are you feeling?"
Nan Chen had been engrossed in eating fruit, but when she heard Wang Lan's question, she suddenly realized something. She frowned, quietly felt the effects, and then said, "Although I've eaten a lot of fruit, I don't feel full at all. On the contrary, I feel like I have a lot more strength. I wonder if it's just my imagination."
As she spoke, she clenched her fist.
"Haha," Wang Lan laughed loudly, "Of course it's not an illusion! I already told you, this fruit has miraculous effects!"
“What miraculous effects can this fruit have? At most, it just tastes a little better,” Aken said, turning back into the size of a jar. He patted his belly as he walked over. “Didn’t I tell you? Every time it rains here, a brightly colored mushroom grows. This mushroom is strange; it shrinks within a few dozen seconds of growing, but it tastes exceptionally good!”
"Brightly colored..."
Wang Lan and Nan Chen exchanged a glance, and Wang Lan said directly, "But aren't brightly colored mushrooms poisonous?"
"I don't know!" Aken said proudly. "Maybe you ordinary mortals, with your mortal bodies, are not worthy of that stuff. Anyway, nothing happened to me after I ate it. Speaking of which, this mushroom is very delicious and has a very chewy texture. It's just that its growth cycle is too short. I only discovered this mushroom by chance. Even the local people here don't know that it exists. And the most amazing thing is that after eating the mushroom, I felt like I had superhuman strength!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Lan's eyes lit up.
He looked at Nan Chen and asked directly, "How are you? Can you still eat?"
Nan Chen was taken aback. "I, I... am I alright?"
Wang Lan nodded and looked at Aken.
"Let's go! Mushroom! Lead the way!"
