Chapter 172 Moon Island, Moon Fruit



Relying on their superior combat strength, the decision to form a team to conduct a nighttime raid on Moon Island was unanimously approved.

However, for safety reasons, Lin Qianqian still asked them to release all the bodyguard puppets for close protection.

So, there were seven people in total, with five puppets. Only Lin Qianqian and Yun Ze did not release their puppet bodyguards.

In addition, there are two pets, Kaka and Sailor Moon, and this complicated combination begins their trip to Luna Island.

The island has a beautiful name, and the scenery on the island is beautiful too.

If Crystal Isle is like a fairytale world, then Emerald Isle is like a museum of treasures.

Under the hazy moonlight, Moon Island resembled a fairyland, ethereal and breathtakingly beautiful.

The nighttime view of Moon Island is even more beautiful than the daytime view that Yunze took last time.

The delicacies on Moon Island are not numerous, but each one is beautiful, of high quality, and also quite ferocious.

Just like when they first set foot on the island, the slime fruits hanging on the outer vines were level 77.

They're colorful, taste delicious, like QQ candy, and come in a variety of flavors.

However, if you don't remove the pit from the middle before eating it, you will collapse after the first bite, and it will be too late to save you, unless there is a specific antidote.

Only after removing the pit and letting it sit for ten minutes will the fruit change from highly poisonous to non-poisonous.

However, you might not be able to pick it, because many milky-white amoebas lurk beneath this vine.

Whenever a slime fruit ripens and falls to the ground, an amoeba will emerge from the ground and eat the fruit.

Don't underestimate these insects; they are level 70 medicinal insects. When dried and ground into powder, they can be used to neutralize the poison of slime fruit.

This is amazing! There's always an antidote within a hundred paces; nature is truly incredible!

Moreover, when the medicinal insect is combined with another detoxifying organism, the lotus coral, and consumed over a long period of time, it can cause a mutation in the body, making one immune to all poisons.

Further in, there was a large patch of flowers that looked like donuts. I checked the Qionglin Encyclopedia and found out that they are called donut flowers.

There's even a level 66 character, and she's very beautiful; she floats gently into the air when the wind blows.

Eating these donut-shaped flowers can make you feel no pain for up to an hour, and you'll even feel incredibly happy—it's even more effective than anesthesia.

As soon as the guide finished broadcasting, Chu Zhou took out his tablet and listed countless uses and ideas within a minute, almost like he was about to take a day trip to the lab.

Further in, there are walking trumpet grasses, moonflowers that turn with the moonlight, and water droplet fireflies flying low, all beautiful as a dream in the moonlight.

The prerequisites are that the trumpet grass doesn't use sonic attacks, the moon sunflower doesn't shoot at them like a machine gun, and the water droplet firefly doesn't burrow into your skin.

Every step reveals a beautiful view, but every step also carries a deadly threat!

Apart from Yunze and Lin Qianqian, the other five people, even with the protection of puppets, still faced great difficulties on their journey.

No one has been injured so far, thanks not only to the puppets' excellent protection but also to Yunze's constant support. Otherwise, we wouldn't have made it this far.

In short, the island wasn't very big, and from dusk till midnight, we still hadn't reached the very center of Moon Island.

Lin Qianqian originally planned to leave the mall for the night and continue tomorrow.

At this moment, Jiang Shuran looked up and pointed ahead: "Look at that tree?"

Since this island is called Moon Island, the highest-grade Qionglin cuisine on the island must be related to the moon.

Everyone looked in the direction Jiang Shuran pointed, and saw a full moon in the sky, with a lone tree standing on the mountaintop in the center of the island.

The tree was very large, about four or five meters thick and thirty or forty meters tall, with a canopy that appeared to be more than thirty meters in diameter.

Most importantly, there are hundreds or even thousands of fruits hanging on the branches.

The fruit is shaped like a crescent moon, a half-moon, or a full moon.

The translucent, glass-like fruits reflected a faint halo under the moonlight, adding a touch of mystery to them.

"When did this tree appear? Are there any trees there?" Luo Zexuan asked, puzzled.

“No, I’ve looked around repeatedly, and there were no trees there five minutes ago,” Chu Zhou replied.

"When did it appear? How did it appear?" The others discussed animatedly.

"So beautiful!" Lin Qianqian exclaimed.

She didn't participate in the discussion, but instead took out the Qionglin Treasure Book and pointed it at the tree.

"Beep, Qionglin Gourmet Creature Detected: Moon Tree, Level 100."

And then, that was it...

Undeterred, Lin Qianqian took the Qionglin Treasure Book and patted it on the tree several more times, but the result was still the same: it only contained a short sentence.

Seeing this, everyone frowned.

"What's going on? After all this time, we only know a name and a rank. Is the Qionglin Manual incomplete?"

Luo Zexuan genuinely suspected there was something wrong with the manual; the introduction was far too brief.

Chu Zhou disagreed with his view: "It should be an alliance or a noble family. Few people have ever seen the Moon Tree. They don't even know what the fruit on the tree is called. Let's call them Moon Fruit for now. No one should have actually obtained the Moon Fruit, so there is no more information recorded."

"If they never obtained the Moon Fruit, how did the island's rights come into the Lu family's hands? The alliance stipulates that the first individual or family to find a gourmet island and wish to own it must hunt the highest-level gourmet creature on that island. The alliance will only register the island's rights after verifying the situation. If neither the alliance nor the Lu family ever obtained the Moon Fruit, how did the island come into the Lu family's hands, and why is it named Moon Island?"

Wen Mingyue's doubts are also everyone's doubts.

"Could it be that they only saw the tree but didn't get the fruit? This level is just an estimate they made based on experience?"

Jiang Shuran, who had just joined and had a relatively low profile, spoke up.

Everyone turned to look at her at once, making Jiang Shuran feel very embarrassed, thinking that she had said something wrong.

After thinking about it, Chu Zhou agreed with Jiang Shuran's point of view.

"It's not impossible. Lu Nanzhe said he didn't know how the Lu family obtained the rights to Moon Island, and there were no records of it in the family records. So the actual situation is as Jiang Shuran said, and the Lu family must have paid some other price to obtain the rights to the island."

"Alright, no need to guess anymore. Just bring a few fruits and everything will be clear."

Lin Qianqian didn't want to play the guessing game anymore. Instead of talking, she decided to pick some fruit and try it herself.

Just as she was about to lead everyone on, Yunze reached out and stopped her.

"Find an open space and set up the shop, let everyone else stay in the shop. I'll go pick the fruit by myself."

"What's wrong? Is something the problem?" Lin Qianqian asked, puzzled.

"Something feels off. You guys stay in the mall for now."

Yunze frowned but didn't say much; he just had this feeling.

However, Lin Qianqian didn't ask any more questions. In terms of experience in facing danger, she couldn't compare to Yun Ze, who had been traveling and exploring secret realms for hundreds of years.

If Yunze says something's wrong, then there must be something wrong. We should trust the intuition of a Mahayana master.

Lin Qianqian quickly found a relatively flat grassy area, put all the Qionglin delicacies and creatures there into her space, and then opened the mall.

Seeing that everyone else had retreated into the mall, Yunze slowly walked towards the moon tree.

He did not ride the clouds or fly on a sword.

His figure suddenly vanished in an instant, thirty meters away from the Moon Tree.

This sudden turn of events terrified Lin Qianqian and the others who were peering out from the mall entrance.

Lin Qianqian was stunned for a moment, then immediately rushed out to find Yunze, but Chu Zhou grabbed her arm.

Once the others realized what was happening, they all rushed over.

Some grabbed her arms, some hugged her legs, some wrapped their arms around her waist, and some hung on her back.

Old Zhang even ran to the entrance and locked the mall door.

"What are you doing? Let me go!"
