Su Qing had invested the two supernatural fruits in his hand. He clicked on Xie Yuanshan's private chat:

"Brother, long time no see, how are you doing recently?"

"I have a question that I've wanted to ask for a long time. I wonder if you would be willing to tell me about it?"

When Xie Yuanshan saw his message, he was stunned and had some guesses in his mind.

"Brother, you want to ask about the origin of the supernatural fruit, right?"

Apart from this question, Xie Yuanshan couldn't think of anything else.

"Brother, you are indeed very good at predicting things. I wanted to ask you a long time ago, but I just didn't know how to ask."

"I originally thought that the supernatural fruit was very precious, but seeing that there are quite a few supernatural people here, and you gave me the price of fifty level 1 divine crystals, I guess it's not that precious."

"I am increasingly curious about the origin of the supernatural fruit. I wonder if Brother Xie can tell me and clear up my doubts?"

If the supernatural fruit was very precious, Xie Yuanshan would not have given one to Su Qing the first time.

But to say that it is not precious, when Xu Huaping and Xiao Yichen asked him for it before, he refused.

This made Su Qing confused.

"Haha, actually even if you don't ask, I will find a chance to tell you."

"At the beginning of the end of the world, a catastrophe suddenly occurred. The inherent order of mankind collapsed in an instant, and the world changed drastically."

"Moreover, thermal weapons are no longer effective and have become nothing more than fire sticks, which are far less effective than kitchen knives."

"That period was the darkest time for humanity in the last days. We were nearly wiped out by the extinction race."

"Until one day, a survivor accidentally discovered that a fruit tree had grown on the pile of dead zombies."

"The fruit tree is blood red. It absorbs the flesh and blood of zombies to grow and bears fruits that are as red as jujubes."

"He was extremely hungry after not eating for three days and three nights. He didn't care whether the fruit was poisonous or not, and he picked a green date and ate it."

"After eating the fruit, he awakened his fire powers and became the world's first superpower."

"Since then, a large number of people with special abilities have been born, and humans have been able to compete with zombies and mutant beasts."

Xie Yuanshan's eyes were long and leisurely, as if he had returned to the beginning of his time travel.

The appearance of the supernatural fruit was somewhat unexpected, but also reasonable.

Early humans did not know that there were divine crystals inside zombies. It was only with the nourishment of energy from the mountains of zombie corpses that divine objects like the supernatural fruit tree were created.

It was not until the news of the supernatural fruit spread and someone exploded and died after eating a second supernatural fruit that people knew the effect of the supernatural fruit.

Some people also discovered divine crystals in the bodies of zombies and mutant beasts. They absorbed the energy of the divine crystals and became stronger. Only then did humans truly gain a foothold in the apocalypse.

In a blink of an eye, five years have passed and the situation of the end of the world has gradually stabilized.

The survivor bases spread all over the world have become the last refuge for humanity.

"Supernatural trees grow on the corpses of zombies and produce supernatural fruits."

Su Qing's eyes were dull, as if he was listening to a myth.

He thought it was the end of the world and that a certain fruit tree had mutated and produced supernatural fruit.

It's like some kind of natural treasure in fantasy novels or fairy tale novels.

I never expected that it would grow out of a pile of zombie corpses! This is too amazing.

"I see that most of the people in Brother's Hope Base are ordinary people?"

"Logically speaking, the end of the world should be filled with people with special abilities, right?"

"Could it be that the production of the supernatural fruit is very small?"

After coming back to his senses, Su Qing asked in confusion.

Judging from the casual attitude with which Xie Yuanshan took out the supernatural fruit, he must have more in his hands.

Why didn't he give it to ordinary people in the base to eat and strengthen the base's power? "Haha, the supernatural fruit is not precious. As long as the corpses of more than a thousand zombies are piled together, there is a chance that a supernatural fruit tree will grow."

"The number of fruits on the tree has nothing to do with the number of corpses. It all depends on luck."

"If you're lucky, there may be dozens or even more; if you're unlucky, there may only be a few."

"As for why you don't give the ordinary people in the base the supernatural fruit, it's not because I'm stingy."

"If everyone becomes a superpower, who will rule whom?"

"Think about it yourself, brother. Is this the truth?"

Xie Yuanshan's light words revealed the bloody and dark nature of the end of the world.

"I see, brother, what you said makes sense."

Su Qing understood what he meant instantly and fell silent.

In order to maintain the existing rule, the base leaders in the end times all control the number of people with special powers.

Even Xie Yuanshan is no exception.

In the final analysis, it is still eating human blood buns.

The reality is a pluralistic world, there is no simple right or wrong, good or bad.

Xie Yuanshan is nice to Su Qing because Su Qing is useful to him.

But can we say that he is a good person? Compared to Su Qing, yes.

For ordinary people in the end times, this is not necessarily the case.

"I know what you mean, brother. Are you trying to say, why don't I break this unwritten rule and turn all the ordinary people in the base into superpowers, then conquer the world, unify the end times, establish a new order, go down in history, and be praised forever by future generations?"

As if anticipating Su Qing's displeasure, Xie Yuanshan asked indifferently.

"To be honest, I did have this thought before."

"Help you unify the end times, help Xiao Yichen unify the Republic of China, and help Xu Huaping overthrow the Qing Dynasty."

"But then I thought about it carefully. You are not a fish, so how can you know the joy of a fish?"

“There is something in the world that is the most magical, the easiest to pass on to others, but also the hardest to be accepted by others.”

“That’s the idea.”

"Everyone has different ideas. What I think may not be what others need."

Su Qing shook her head, but did not change her attitude towards Xie Yuanshan.

It doesn't matter whether he is good or bad, as long as he is beneficial to me.

"Haha, brother, what you said is very kind!"

"Before entering the chat group, I was ambitious and wanted to do something great for the people of the world."

"Later, the materials I traded with you were coveted by the three major bases, which gradually changed my mind."

"Now that I have gradually seen the magic of chat groups, I have completely given up my previous naive ideas."

"I want to strengthen myself, step by step to the top of the extraordinary, and see the scenery on the top of the mountain."

Xie Yuanshan looked up at the sky and spoke his true feelings.

The burden of saving the world was too heavy for him, and he didn't want to carry it on his shoulders.

He just wants to strengthen himself.

"Well, after experiencing the pleasure of becoming increasingly powerful, I also had this thought in my mind."

"Climb up the path of practice step by step, and see the scenery on the top of the mountain."

"Brother, let's work hard together."

Su Qing clenched his fists and nodded.

"Okay, let's work hard together!"

The two chatted for a few minutes and then ended the conversation.

“Ding ding ding”

At this time, the phone screen automatically lights up and a series of message alerts sound.
