Chapter 256 The Mysterious Masked Man on the Return
Rumble~~~
The giant screen barrier in the sky trembled, gradually fading away until it disappeared.
Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but look happy.
Pa~
Su Mo jumped off the branch and stood firmly on the ground. Others immediately gathered around him.
"Brother Mo, what do you communicate with the sacred tree?" Hyde asked curiously.
Su Mo thought for a while, and first told everyone the origins of the sacred tree, the tree messenger, and the stories that had happened before.
After hearing these deeds, everyone was silent.
They finally understood why the powerful tree-users and other tree-users were so hostile to themselves and others.
The good intentions and sincere efforts only resulted in three betrayals.
If it were me, I would probably do the same thing.
"Brother Mo, have we gone too far!"
Hide said in a low voice. He was kind-hearted by nature. He felt very sympathetic and guilty about the experience of the tree messenger, and a feeling of guilt arose in his heart. A deep sense of guilt.
"Hyde, this is not our fault~"
Su Mo patted Haide on the shoulder and said: "You have also seen that the tree envoy is very determined to kill us and does not give any chance for communication to ease. Therefore, this is a life-and-death battle, and no one can hold back. "Although I sympathize with the situation of the tree envoys, I can only say that it is not us who are at fault, but the previous groups of greedy outsiders."
Hearing this, Hyde was silent for a moment and relaxed. Xu nodded.
“By the way, Hyde.”
Su Mo said with a smile: “Isn’t your dream to find the treasure of the King of Chaos? Congratulations, you have found the first treasure.”
“Now, in addition to the Dragon Fruit, I also give you these fruits.”
After speaking, Su Mo took out three fruits from the space ring.
“The Fruit of Wisdom can greatly improve the intelligence of the user and make them smarter. This is left to Frank, who needs to constantly learn knowledge.”
“The Fruit of Heart contains With pure and abundant soul power, when Peggy reaches the peak of leadership, she can use it to break through natural disasters."
"The killing fruit allows the user to draw strength from killing and blood and cultivate the intention to kill. , this fruit is very suitable for Asura.”
As he spoke, Su Mo handed the three fruits to Frank, Peggy and Asura one by one.
"Brother Mo, this fruit is too valuable."
Frank held the fruit in his hand and said with a wry smile.
The Lucky Team has already received too much kindness from Brother Mo, including saving his life and giving him general-level armor. Now Brother Mo, together with Hu Tao and Qian Liuyu, have worked hard to kill the tree messenger. The precious fruits obtained are given to everyone.
They really deserve it.
“Keep it~”
Su Mo waved his hand and said: "These fruits are of no use to me, and they are a waste in my hands."
Of course this sentence is to comfort Frank and the others.
In fact, he can use these fruits for cadre training, and he can always find the right person, such as giving the fruit of wisdom to Andolfo or Gefus, the fruit of heart to Ming, and the fruit of killing. Give it to Yingfeng or Manshan.
However, he is more willing to give these precious fruits to his friends than to his subordinates, especially friends who can bring him good luck.
This time, Hyde's cry for help brought him to the Sacred Tree Star.
In just half a day, Hu Tao broke through the natural disaster. His body broke through the natural disaster, which was a huge harvest. In addition, he also got a planet that could continuously produce resources.
Yes, he has just reached an agreement with the Sacred Tree. In the future, he will protect the Sacred Tree Star and continue to provide the Sacred Tree with treasures similar to Star and Moon Dew, so that it can grow stronger.
In return, he will pick appropriate amounts of the eight fruits produced by the sacred tree.
The eight kinds of fruits correspond to the eight major trees, namely
Fruits of power and increased strength
The Fruit of the Dragon, extracts dragon blood
The Fruit of the Beast, increases the ability to communicate with beasts
The Fruit of Life, transforms the body, enhances vitality
The Fruit of the Heart, enhances the spirit Power
The fruit of poison makes the body immune to all poisons, and even masters the power of poison
Killing Fruit, Contains Killing Intent
Wisdom Fruit, Improves Intelligence
The effect of the fruit will vary depending on the size of the fruit.
The larger the size, the better the effect, but at the same time, it also has higher requirements on the user.
For example, if Mundo were to take the fruit of the Poison Tree directly now, he would definitely be poisoned to death in one go.
But if Mundo takes some low-level poisonous fruits during this period to let his body adapt to the poison and even evolve some abilities, then when he takes the natural disaster-level fruits when he reaches the peak of his command, it is very likely that he will be able to break through his superpowers [ Physical hardening】B++'s shackles, break through natural disasters, and combine with fruit abilities to awaken more powerful supernatural talents.
In the future, these eight fruits will greatly enrich the resource base of the Holy Light Mercenary Group, accelerate the growth of members, and attract more talents.
In addition, the sacred tree star full of giant beasts can also be used as a training ground for the Holy Light Mercenary Group to select talents and increase the actual combat experience of the team members.
To be honest, the process of reaching an agreement with the Divine Tree was much smoother than he expected.
Originally, he thought that the Divine Tree would be angry with him because of the death of the eight tree envoys, but after communicating with him, he discovered that the Divine Tree’s mind was very immature, like an ignorant child, with simple thoughts. In other words In other words, it is very easy to deceive.
He made a small promise, and the sacred tree agreed to his conditions so quickly that he even felt guilty about deceiving a child.
Of course, he will not lie to the sacred tree.
Protecting the sacred tree is a must.
Next, he will send key members of his confidants to station on the Sacred Tree Star. With the current reputation and strength of the Holy Light Mercenary Group, it will not be a problem to defend a resource star.
In addition, he promised that the resources of the sacred tree would not be lacking.
Star-Moon Dew is too advanced and he won't be able to get it for a while, but mid-to-high-end resources that have functions similar to Star-Moon Dew and can promote plant growth are not uncommon in the universe.
For example, the spiritual liquid of the Lingzhi tribe, the earth stalactites of the Hoyak tribe, the forest language seeds of the wood elves, etc.
At worst, just spend some money~
What he lacks most now is money!
Ahem, that’s too far off topic.
In short, he got too many benefits from this operation to save Hyde, so he didn't feel bad at all when giving four natural disaster fruits to Hyde and Frank.
The stronger the strength of Hyde and others, the higher the level they will be able to reach in the future.
The first time he met Hyde, he went to the Shenyao Empire, successfully broke through to the leader level, and obtained the Divine Stone of Focus and the Soul Refining Pot.
The second time he rescued Hyde, he came to the Sacred Tree Planet and his body broke through the natural disaster.
Then the next time I meet Hyde, will it be the time to attack the God King?
For example, a few years later, Hyde found the treasure of the King of Chaos, which might contain an opportunity to help him break through to the God King.
With a high-level lucky halo, everything is possible.
"Then...thank you, Brother Mo~" Frank put away the fruit of wisdom and felt filled with emotion.
Hey, they owe Brother Mo more and more.
How should I pay it back in the future~
"Thank you, Brother Mo!"
Peggy smiled like a flower. If she hadn't known that Su Mo already had someone he liked, she would definitely hug Su Mo and kiss him hard now.
“Thank you~”
Asura took the fruit of killing and bowed slightly to Su Mo, sincerely expressing his gratitude.
He and Su Mo only met for the first time, but now they have inherited such a great kindness.
The grace of saving lives and the gift of treasures.
For him, who always repays kindness, this is both a burden and a motivation.
Now he is too weak to help Su Mo.
But in the future, when he breaks through the natural disasters and achieves great fighting power, he will definitely repay the favor with all his strength.
“Little things!”
Su Mo smiled and said: "Then let's pick some fruits and prepare to return. Let's take a look at the brand new Holy Light Base."
"Yes!"
Hide The others all nodded, with a look of anticipation in their eyes. They also want to see how the Holy Light Base will change in the past few months.
In the next few hours, everyone picked hundreds of thousands of fruits of different types and sizes.
Hundreds of thousands of fruits are less than one-tenth of the total fruit yield of the sacred tree, but it is enough for the current Holy Light Mercenary Group.
"Pooh~"
"Good~"
Under the control of Pooh, the Seiya quickly descended from the space layer and stopped in front of everyone after a while. In front of you.
“Wow!!!”
Hyde and Frank couldn't help but exclaimed when they saw such a gorgeous and handsome Seiya.
This spaceship is so handsome~
“Brother Mo, is this the deluxe version of the Federation of Light’s top small spaceship ‘Seiya’?”
The craze for spaceships As an enthusiast, Frank recognized the Lamborghini in this small spacecraft at a glance. His eyes shone with love and he wanted to start driving it twice immediately.
“Hey, that’s right!”
Su Mo smiled and said: "It's the Xingya Deluxe Edition."
"It should be expensive, right?" Peggy asked with her eyes wide open.
Su Mo shrugged: "It's okay, 25 million innars."
His~
Suddenly, there was a gasp.
25 million!
This is really an astronomical figure that they can't even imagine.
"Let's go, your spaceship has been smashed. This time, take my spaceship back~"
Su Mo smiled slightly, "I will see you off when we return to Zatanvi. A better assault ship.”
Hearing this, Hyde, Frank and others looked at me and I looked at you, not knowing what to say.
It's really nice to be friends with rich people~
However, the favors are owed more and more, and it seems difficult to repay them.
Pfft~~~
The cabin door slowly opened, and Su Mo and his party walked into the spacecraft and embarked on the return journey.
…………
Chaotic star field, a certain star area
Two spaceships are parked side by side in the dark space. One of them is very small, and its whole body is dark purple. The coating of the spacecraft is engraved with complex magic lines. It looks high-end at first glance. goods.
The other one is a very ordinary medium-sized transport ship.
“Damn it, why did the spaceship stop suddenly and couldn’t even send a message?”
In the central control room, Claude’s eyes were full of anxiety and he pressed the buttons frantically, but the spacecraft remained motionless. .
He is a member of the 103rd Team of the Holy Light Mercenary Group, and he just took on the task of escorting a transport ship a few days ago.
The escort distance is very short, it only takes six or seven days to go back and forth, and there are no precious materials in the transport ship.
With the current reputation of the Holy Light Mercenary Group, as long as the corps logo is affixed to the outer layer of the spacecraft, no star thief would dare to rob it without foresight.
So, this should have been a fairly easy and simple task, otherwise it would not have fallen on their team.
But who would have thought that just as they were about to return, an accident would happen.
During the normal flight, it suddenly stopped uncontrollably. All signals were blocked and it was impossible to call for help from the outside world.
"Who is it!"
Claude was sweating profusely, and the other team members also clenched their fists anxiously, panic rising in their hearts.
At this moment, the indicator light for the hatch opening came on, causing everyone's expressions to change drastically. Then, two figures appeared at the end of the passage and walked slowly towards the main control room.
The two were wearing dark purple clothes with no markings on them. One was tall and the other short. Judging from the exposed skin, they did not belong to the same race.
They all wear masks on their faces, one looks like a clown, painted with colorful patterns, and the other is very simple, pure black, with only a pair of eyes exposed.
“Who are you!”
Claude asked tremblingly. He felt extremely heavy pressure from these two people. This showed that the strength of both of them was far greater than his. above.
"Members of the Holy Light Mercenary Group, where is your leader now?"
The man in the black mask asked, his voice was low and overbearing.
Leader?
Is their target the leader?
Claude was shocked. As a newcomer to the corps, his loyalty to the corps has not yet reached a level where he can disregard his own safety. If he knew the whereabouts of the regiment leader, he would definitely not hide it.
But the key is, he doesn’t know!
The leader left in a hurry. Except for Minister Colin, Master Ming and a few core cadres, no one knew the real whereabouts of the leader.
Claude swallowed and said in a trembling voice:
"Sir, it is not for us newcomers to know where the leader is."
"No need to talk nonsense to him, I will check It will become clear immediately."
Besides, the man in the clown mask said in a shrill voice.
As soon as the words fell, Claude and everyone in the main control room instantly lost consciousness.
Search the soul with telekinesis!
Ten seconds later, the man in the clown mask checked everyone's memories and shook his head:
"These people are too low-level and really don't know where the Holy Light has gone."
Hearing this, the man in the black mask was silent for a moment and said:
"Let the White Bird invade their internal network and see if they can find any clues."
"Okay!"
The man in the clown mask nodded, and then with a thought, everyone's intelligent optical brain detached from their wrists and was put into the space equipment by him.
The two left the transport ship and returned to the small spacecraft next to it.
"How is it?"
In the command room, a woman wearing a bird-head mask asked. In addition to her, there were four other masked people here.
The man in the black mask shook his head and said:
"Nothing gained, but I got their intelligent optical brain back. You can hack into the Holy Light Mercenary Group's internal network and see if you can find any clues. ”
After saying that, the man in the clown mask handed the light brain to the white bird.
“Let me try~”
Shiratiao took one of the smart optical brains and then attached a metal component to the upper layer of the optical brain.
She opened the personal lock of the light brain, and then found the special internal software of the Holy Light Mercenary Group.
The virtual invasion begins.
The data passed through layers of firewalls silently, and the whole process was very smooth. However, just when White Bird was about to touch the core area of the software, a huge torrent of data suddenly poured down.
“Not good!”
Shiratiao’s expression changed and he quickly responded.
However, she was beaten back steadily by this torrent of data.
“How is that possible!” Bai Niao was shocked.
You know, although she is not a mechanic who specializes in virtual technology, after all, she has the background of a natural disaster-level mechanic. It is easy to invade the database of a galaxy-level civilization conglomerate, but today she is in Holy Light. The mercenary group is in trouble here.
Soon, White Bird exited the virtual state and told what had just happened.
After listening, everyone was very surprised.
"Could it be that there is a natural disaster-level mechanic in the Holy Light Mercenary Group?"
Black Mask muttered to himself, then his voice sank and said:
"Things have changed. Now we can only wait for him on the only way for the Holy Light to return to Zatanvi."
"Hmm~"
