Chapter 398 Blood Crystal Fruit Tree, Solving the Mutant Venus Flytrap

The swooping down of the giant plant attracted all the attention of the level 5 mutated Venus flytrap, ignoring the tiny creature on the ground.

Huang Zhao frowned as he looked at the blood-red plant that appeared before him, as red as a crystal.

It cannot be detected using mental perception, but it can be observed directly with the naked eye.

It grows next to the main stem of a level 5 mutated Venus flytrap and is well protected.

"It is indeed a treasure from Chen Run's memory, the Blood Crystal Fruit, but it seems to be unripe, or even still in its early stages."

After the apocalypse, there are not many treasures that can increase the strength of superhumans, and most people can only rely on absorbing energy crystals to improve their strength.

However, the Blood Crystal Fruit is different. Once it matures, consuming it can directly increase the amount of superpowered energy stored in the body of the superpowered individual, based on the energy absorbed during the growth process.

Even the lowest quality Blood Crystal Fruit can provide more than 10,000 points of alien energy, which is equivalent to directly raising an ordinary person to level four.

"Is this little thing the obstacle to mental perception? It doesn't seem to have anything special about it."

"I wonder if transplanting it to Dawn City will prevent it from continuing to grow."

"We have to try, otherwise we'll have to send people to protect this place, which is too much trouble."

Because Chen Run is only a space-type user, he successfully stole a mature Blood Crystal Fruit in his previous life by relying on his space-type abilities, and he was unaware of its special properties.

Without giving it much thought, Huang Zhao strode toward the plant, and as he got closer, a strange feeling welled up inside him.

To describe it specifically, Chen Run's supernatural abilities seemed to have found their source and were becoming unusually active.

It even began to spontaneously absorb alien energy from the air, slowly increasing its own internal alien energy.

"No wonder such a treasure can grow here, and the plants in this valley are all growing so well."

You can increase your strength without absorbing energy crystals, and gain experience while AFK. If you keep doing this, it would be strange if you didn't become stronger.

As Huang Zhao approached, even though the level 5 mutated Venus flytrap didn't care about him, it couldn't just sit idly by.

One of the branches that was entangled with Daqiang broke off and opened a huge fly cage to bite Huang Zhao.

The fly cage had serrated edges and a cold, metallic sheen; it was large enough to swallow Huang Zhao whole.

Huang Zhao conjured a half-meter-long spatial blade in his hand and teleported away as the giant mouth closed in. The spatial blade sliced ​​through the roots of the mutated Venus flytrap connected to the fly cage.

The thick root broke off instantly, oozing a large amount of sap that splashed around and emitted pungent white smoke as it fell to the ground.

"Good heavens, this corrosiveness is even stronger than the stomach acid of a devourer."

In mid-air, Daqiang violently collided with the fly trap of the mutated Venus flytrap, relying on its hard shell.

The sharp forelimbs cut and slashed, leaving numerous wounds on the fly traps and rhizomes of the mutated Venus flytrap, but they were powerless against the agile Daqiang.

"Now that we've found the target, there's no need to keep it. It'll fill the gap in Dawn City's supply of level 5 energy crystals."

The mental shock could no longer significantly disrupt the mutated Venus flytrap that had lost its mind; its nascent consciousness had been erased.

But it can continue to move by relying on its own hunting instincts.

If this were an ordinary tree, after its consciousness was erased, even if Huang Zhao chopped it down with an axe, it wouldn't react.

This was also a minor flaw in Huang Zhao's psychic abilities that he discovered at this time.

If Daqiang and Chen Run hadn't been brought along, they wouldn't have been able to deal with this level-five mutated Venus flytrap using only their mental abilities.

Now, facing enemies on two fronts, and with a space-type ability user who appears and disappears unpredictably and ignores defenses, its fate is predictable.
