Chapter 323 Red Kiwi Fruit (More Updates for Haishuchong’s 10,000 Rewards!)
After Gervis finished speaking, the room fell into silence for a short time, and finally Alice continued to speak.
"Gervis, what happened to you and Wright in the forest? When the unicorn led us to find you, you were lying in the dense forest. The surroundings were in a mess, and all the trees were broken, extending deep into the forest!"
This question had been weighing on Alice's mind for a long time, but she had never been the kind of person who liked to gossip or pry into other people's secrets, so she had held it back until now to ask.
"Wright and I seem to have bad luck. We encountered many magical beasts in the forest, including poisonous dragon lizards, shadow cheetahs and flaming giant bears! In addition, there was even a high-level magical beast, the Thunder Flying Tiger. I was affected when the Thunder Flying Tiger and the flaming giant bear were fighting. Wright was a bit more miserable and was directly killed by the flaming giant bear!"
After a brief thought, Gervis told the story which was nine parts true and one part false. In fact, there was nothing to hide. He only needed to hide the black kiwi fruit, and no one would inquire why the monsters suddenly gathered there and fought.
"By the way, Alice, when you found me, did you find any corpses of monsters nearby?"
Gervis suddenly thought of his temporary younger brother Big Bear. Although this younger brother only served for an hour, he had made great contributions to him. However, he did not expect that he would be ambushed by the Thunder Tiger. Gervis was planning to recruit him as a real younger brother if he had the chance in the future.
"Yes! When we found you, we discovered the body of the Shadow Cheetah next to you!"
Alice nodded. Although she was surprised that Gervis and Wright had such bad luck and ran into the monster's nest, she was also amazed at Gervis's luck. After all, if it weren't for these monsters, Gervis would most likely die at Wright's hands.
"Is it just the Swift Shadow Cheetah? Have you seen the body of the Blazing Giant Bear?"
"No, except for the Swift Shadow Cheetah, there was only Wright's body. The battle nearby was too horrific, and it was deep in the Dark Forest. So after rescuing you, we immediately left the Dark Forest with the Swift Shadow Cheetah and Wright's body."
Alice thought that Gervis was coveting the monster meat of the flaming giant bear, so she answered Gervis in detail!
"That's a pity!"
Gervis pretended to sigh with heartache, but in fact he felt relieved in his heart. No body of the Flame Bear was found nearby, which meant that the Flame Bear might still be alive.
Boom boom boom!
At this moment, there was a knock on the bedroom door.
"Come in!"
Following Gervis' instructions, the maid Anna came in with two servants carrying trays of food!
"My Lord, Lord Count!"
Anna and the others bowed respectfully to Gervis and Alice. Anna looked at Gervis with joy, and it was obvious that she was very happy that Gervis woke up.
After greeting, Anna ordered two servants to put the food on the small table beside the bed. However, what happened next made Anna feel a little embarrassed, and she couldn't help but secretly glance at Alice.
Anna just learned from Vivian that Gervis might not have enough strength temporarily due to his injury, so he needed someone to serve him meals. She also specifically asked the chef to cut the food before sending it up, so as to avoid having to cut it again in the bedroom, which would delay Gervis's meal.
"Sir, please don't move. I will serve you!"
But he was hesitant for only a moment. When Anna saw that Gervis wanted to get up, she hurried forward and helped Gervis up and leaned him against the head of the bed, then took the knife and fork and began to feed Gervis.
"Ahem! Ahem! Thank you, Anna!"
Gervis was also somewhat helpless. The Thunder Tiger was indeed a high-level magical beast. Its lightning was indeed powerful. Even a mid-level bronze knight like him was knocked unconscious by the lightning and his whole body was still numb.
But it was also his luck that he survived, because the target of the Thunder Tiger's attack was the Flame Bear, otherwise Gervis might have died on the spot and followed Wright's footsteps.
Gervis didn't have much strength to move now, so he could only accept Anna's feeding.
After such a long period of being influenced by the life of a noble lord, Gervis should have been able to remain calm and composed. However, Alice was still watching him, and Gervis felt under a lot of invisible pressure.
Boom boom boom!
Fortunately, at this moment, there was another knock on Gervis' bedroom. Because the door had just been opened and not closed, Gervis saw that it was one of his servants, so he asked, "What's the matter?"
"Sir! The Earl's subordinates asked me to come up and report that many of the war horses the Earl brought might not survive!"
The servant answered respectfully at the door of the study.
"I understand. You go down first!"
After hearing this, Alice said something to the servant.
"Yes, sir!"
"Alice, is it because you are in a hurry?"
After the servant left, Gervis immediately thought of the key point. If only one or two war horses had an accident, there might be other reasons. However, considering the large number of war horses and the time when Alice and the others arrived, it was very likely that the horses had exhausted their horsepower due to the haste of the journey. It was not uncommon for horses to die from running at full speed for long distances.
"Yes, but I had anticipated this when I came here. Don't worry, just rest and recover. I'll go take a look first!"
After getting the affirmation, Gervis didn't say anything. Alice was willing to lose so many war horses, it really couldn't be repaid with just a simple thank you.
After Alice finished speaking, she stood up from the sofa and came to the bedroom door. At this moment, Alice suddenly turned around and looked at Anna who was carefully feeding Gervis. Suddenly, she said, "That Vivian is very good, Anna is also very good, you are very happy!"
After saying that, while Gervis was in a daze, Alice walked away without looking back, leaving Gervis alone in a daze.
After Alice left, Gervis finished up two plates of food with Anna's help. After all, he hadn't eaten for two days.
However, because of Alice's last sentence, Gervis felt a little unsatisfied. He was still thinking about what Alice meant by that sentence. Was there any deeper meaning, such as jealousy?
"Isn't it possible?"
Gervis remembered Alice's cool goddess image and immediately rejected it!
But you know what, if there really is a deeper meaning behind it, Gervis still feels a little satisfied while he is troubled.
…
After Anna left the bedroom, Gervis sorted out his thoughts and opened his system panel!
At this moment, he already had 16 energy points again, and 10 energy points were the reward for completing the system task.
Gervis set his sights directly on the purple kiwi fruit. There is no need to explain the status of war horses in this world. Alice spared no effort in order to come to support him as soon as possible. Now many war horses may not be able to recover and will slowly die in the next two days.
As the person who owns the system panel, Gervis certainly cannot let Alice suffer such a great loss.
Gervis still remembers the three little birds he caught. They exploded directly after eating the purple kiwi fruit because they could not absorb such a huge amount of energy.
This also indirectly shows that in addition to making the monsters recognize their master, the kiwi fruit also increases the strength of the monsters. If Gervis diluted the purple kiwi fruit and fed it to these war horses, he might be able to save these war horses.
But there is still a problem. That is, Gervis is having difficulty moving now. How can he feed the purple kiwifruit to the war horses without being discovered?
"Why don't you find a way to heal yourself first, and then open the purple spirit bug space to kill the orcs. After killing four orc leaders, you will have 10 energy points, which can be exchanged for kiwi fruit!"
In fact, the difficulty in moving also hindered Gervis's revenge plan! So what Gervis wanted most now was to recover from his injuries first. As long as his injuries were recovered, he could start to arrange these things.
Then Gervis set his sights on the crappy big wheel below, wanting to recover his mobility immediately. Gervis' hope now may very well be on this crappy big wheel. Although it is very crappy and he may not be so lucky to draw the kiwi fruit that can heal injuries, it is Gervis' only hope at the moment.
"Who cares? Let's see if I can recover my strength first. If I can't, I can ask my father to help capture the orc leaders alive and then kill them myself!"
Gervis gritted his teeth, thought about the Larkin family and the revenge plan, and finally decided to try his luck first. After all, if he could resume action immediately, he could earn energy points and start the revenge plan right away!
Then Gervis pressed the lottery start button with an idea, and the damn big roulette wheel started turning immediately.
"No black, no black! You are such a rip-off system. If you rip me off again, I won't use you anymore!"
Seeing the turntable slow down, Gervis became very nervous.
"Haha! Great! Finally I'm not cheating again!"
I don’t know if this crappy system heard Gervis’ threat, but this time there was no black kiwi fruit. Instead, there was a dark red fruit that looked a bit like a cherry.
The deep red kiwi fruit took up a very small area on the big turntable, just like the option with the highest payout rate in the gambling machines in his previous life. Gervis felt that he had drawn something good.
"Did my character explode today?"
Therefore, Gervis could not wait to turn his eyes to the red 'cherry' icon.
Red kiwi: This is a precious kiwi, rarer than other kiwis. After taking this fruit, your cultivation will be improved tenfold within a month! (There is a certain chance that your body will remember this feeling!)
"Oh my god! Oh my god!"
Seeing the description of this red kiwi fruit, Gervis immediately trembled with excitement. Is there such a heaven-defying thing in the world?
It is improved tenfold, which means that as long as you take this red kiwi fruit, one day of practice is equivalent to ten days of practice, and it can last for a total of one month, which is equivalent to nearly one year of practice!
"Haha! I will be able to break through and become a high-level bronze knight in half a month!"
According to the original estimate, Gervis' next breakthrough would be in half a year, but now with the red kiwi fruit, the time has been shortened by 10 times.
"But what the hell is it to make the body remember this feeling? And can this thing heal my current injuries?"
After the fun, questions arose in Gervis' mind again!
First of all, the description in brackets after the kiwi fruit made him a little confused!
Secondly, this fruit doesn’t seem to be related to healing injuries. After all, Gervis’ main purpose just now was to find a way to heal himself.
"Just eat it and see! If it doesn't work, I'll have to ask my cheap father for help! As for the revenge plan, at worst I can just postpone it for a few days!"
Thanks to the big boss "Hai Shu Chong" for the reward!!!
