Chapter 18: A little conspiracy?

After Bai Long and the others selected their weapons, they held them in their hands and walked up. They immediately saw the old man and were all surprised. Then, after listening to Ye Chen's narration, they understood the old man's identity.

"It turns out that he is the intelligent manager of this spacecraft and the manager of the energy core system."

"I didn't expect that a spaceship handed down from a prehistoric civilization could still maintain its energy. What kind of technology is this? Is it automatically absorbing external energy to replenish itself?"

"Is that a golden bean? I wonder how much strength I can gain by eating it."

Everyone marveled at the old man's origins, and then saw the golden beans not far away. Their eyes lit up. If they hadn't seen Ye Chen beside them not moving, they would have walked over and eaten the golden beans.

The old man noticed Ye Chen's silence, smiled slightly, and said: "Adventurer, what are you hesitating about? Do you still think that I, a phantom in the form of energy, can pose any threat to you?"

Ye Chen stared at him, then turned to Bai Long and said, "Go and get the golden bean."

Bai Long saw Ye Chen's appearance and came to his senses. He knew that there was no such thing as a free lunch. Was this old man really so kind to help them? He was so careless that he broke out in a cold sweat. When he heard Ye Chen's words, he was stunned and smiled bitterly, "Why me..."

Ye Chen patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, it's not dangerous. I can guarantee it!"

Bai Long was speechless. It sounded like he was coaxing a child. He looked helplessly at Yue Heng and Zhuge Fan. He almost vomited blood when he saw Yue Heng looking up at the top of the cabin. He seemed to think the runes there were extremely beautiful. Zhuge Fan lowered his head and played with his fingers. As for Mo Feng beside him...

Forget it. Mo Feng held a cigarette in his mouth and looked to the side, not even looking at him directly.

"A bunch of ungrateful guys!" Bai Long rolled his eyes and walked towards the metal platform angrily. As he got closer, his expression became more solemn. In his hand, he held a cold weapon he had just selected, which was a Fang Tian Hua Ji. The shape had changed slightly, but it was basically the same and looked even cooler.

Everyone stared at it.

One step! One step!

Bai Long felt that every step he took was a step closer to death. In just these few steps, he was covered in cold sweat and held his breath.

until--

He came to the metal table and picked up the metal plate.

Nothing happened!

Bai Long was slightly startled, then he breathed a sigh of relief, but still did not dare to relax. He carefully retreated with the metal plate, looked at Yue Heng and others proudly, and said proudly: "See, I am a lucky star born into the world, with great fortune and a long life!"

"cut!"

Yue Heng raised his middle finger, but didn't say much, and he felt quietly relieved in his heart.

Ye Chen took the metal plate from Bai Long, took a look at the golden beans on it, a total of 13, and nodded.

"Xiao Chenchen, how about you thank me?" Bai Long said slowly.

"Well done." Ye Chen nodded.

Bai Long rolled his eyes and said, "Give me some actual rewards. I was so selfless and loyal just now! I am much better than Xiao Yueyue."

"Let Mo Feng cook for you next time."

“…You’re so cruel!”

"I told you before that there will be no danger." Ye Chen said lightly.

Bai Long said disdainfully: "Then why do you want me to go, humph, don't tell me you are too lazy to walk."

"…Well, I just wanted to be safe."

Bai Long: “…”

"Adventurer!" The old man sighed and looked at Ye Chen and said, "I can understand your caution, but I really have no intention of harming you."

"It's too early to say anything." Ye Chen said indifferently, then he scratched his finger with his fingernail and dripped a drop of blood into the metal plate. Then he scratched a golden bean with his fingernail. The golden bean was extremely hard, four or five times harder than a chestnut, but it still cut a crack on Ye Chen's finger. A drop of golden liquid fell and dripped onto the blood.

Everyone was surprised, and they immediately realized Ye Chen's purpose, which was to test whether the golden beans contained poison.

The golden liquid and blood merged into one.

After a while——

The color of the blood became more condensed and deeper.

Ye Chen handed the plate to Mo Feng beside him and said, "Let's test it."

Mo Feng nodded, took out a small white bottle from his backpack, opened it, poured in a drop of white liquid, and let it fall on the blood. After a moment, there was no change.

"It's not poisonous." Mo Feng nodded slightly and said, "If it is poisonous, then the blood will deteriorate, and the finest blood fibers in it will change shape. In this way, the drop of sensing water I poured will also turn black."

Ye Chen nodded, took one and put it into his mouth.

Fresh and dry, delicious!

A tiny golden bean contained an extremely rich flavor. The aroma filled Ye Chen's mouth, and every pore in his body seemed to be open and able to breathe air.

The golden beans entered the stomach.

After a while, Ye Chen felt his skin all over his body begin to heat up, and there seemed to be a flame burning in his stomach. The hot feeling flowed through his limbs and bones, making him want to moan in comfort.

The white dragons next to him were all watching Ye Chen nervously. If he showed any abnormality, they would immediately attack the old man.

Three minutes later, Ye Chen opened his eyes, two rays of light flashed across his eyes, his eyes were sharp and sharp. Although he did not show any strength, Bai Long and others felt inexplicably frightened.

"How is it?" Ye Zhu asked with concern.

Ye Chen smiled slightly, "Very good, I added 100 more people!"

Wow!

Bai Long and others were shocked. They had been killing monsters every day since the beginning of the apocalypse, and with the assistance of 68 powerful monsters such as Xiao Hei, their strength was only increased to 70 to 80 people. However, this tiny golden bean in front of them directly increased Ye Chen's strength by 100 people!

You know, since this golden bean can increase the strength of Ye Chen's 100 people, then for those of them with low physique, the increase will be even greater!

"100 people! That's too abnormal."

"As expected of a pervert with the strength of 10,000 people, such a good thing can be eaten casually like beans!"

Bai Long and the others' eyes lit up as they looked at the golden beans, wishing they could stuff them all into their mouths. However, no one spoke a word. After all, it was all thanks to Ye Chen that they could come here. If Ye Chen had abandoned them and come here alone, he could have taken all these golden beans.

In other words, they had been following Ye Chen all the time without doing anything to help him. Instead, they kept taking advantage of him. Now when they saw the golden beans, although they were envious, they did not greedily ask for them.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

They asked themselves if they were qualified.

Ye Chen handed two pills to his sister Ye Zhu and said, "Take one pill at a time. Don't absorb too much."

Ye Zhu nodded excitedly and quickly put one pill into his mouth.

Ye Chen turned to look at Bai Long and the others and said, "Two pills each."

Bai Long and the others were all stunned, and then looked at Ye Chen in astonishment. They obviously did not expect that Ye Chen would give them such a precious thing unconditionally. This was not something that could be compared to one or two pieces of basic meat. It was too valuable!

Yue Heng looked hesitant, "This..."

Bai Long asked suspiciously, "Are you really going to give it to us?"

Zhuge Fan lowered his head. "I have been holding you back. I, I can't have that..."

Mo Feng didn't say much. He took two pills without any hesitation, which made Bai Long and others beside him stunned and speechless.

"You don't want it, right?" Ye Chen rolled his eyes and said, "Leave it to me. But next time I ask you to kill monsters, don't blame me if anyone dies."

"No, I want it."

"I want one too. Only a fool would not want such a good thing!"

After a few quick moves, each of them got two golden beans.

There are 13 pills in total, two for each person and three for Ye Chen.

After a while, all three pills were taken. The first pill increased the strength of 100 people, the second pill increased the strength of 65 people, and the third pill increased the strength of 30 people.

Ye Chen's current strength has reached the strength of 8 people, close to 300 people, equivalent to a level 30 new human.

After Bai Long and the others absorbed the two golden beans, their strength reached about 230 to 250 people. Everyone's strength soared like a rocket.

The old man quietly watched Ye Chen and the others absorb all the golden beans, then he smiled and said, "This is just a small gift. There are more treasures here. Although they are all disdained by those dark demons, they are of great use to you!"

"No?"

"besides?"

Bai Long and the others were all stunned, then their eyes lit up and their faces were filled with excitement.

Boom!

A metal wall cracked, revealing an oval room inside. The floor was all white crystal, like a mirror, and in the center was a platform with many weapons and fruits piled on it. Among them were fruits as big as apples, which were purple all over and had a little luster, and were extremely beautiful.

"Wow, that's so many!"

"A tiny golden bean can increase the strength of 100 people. How much more can so many fruits increase?"

Bai Long and the others were full of excitement and rushed towards the room.

"Stop!" Ye Chen suddenly shouted, shaking Bai Long and the others. They woke up and turned to look at Ye Chen in astonishment, asking, "What's wrong?"

Ye Chen said indifferently: "If you want to die, go in."

Bai Long and the others shuddered all over, took a look at the fruits and weapons on the stage, and said with some envy and reluctance, "Could there be a trap here?"

"Impossible? I was fine when I went there just now."

Several people looked at Ye Chen in confusion.

The old man's expression changed slightly, and he frowned. He looked a little unhappy and said to Ye Chen, "Isn't the fruit I gave you just now enough? Are you civilized people so suspicious?"

Ye Chen glanced at him indifferently and said casually: "You said that this spaceship was invaded by dark demons a long time ago, but when we came in, we saw neatly arranged runes on the table, as well as these golden beans. I guess they were all donated by you. Although I don't know what your purpose is, your little conspiracy is really useless."

"A little conspiracy?" Bai Long and others were all stunned, and many more were puzzled.

The old man's expression turned gloomy.
