257 Chapter 163
As soon as he finished speaking, several long shadow ropes surged out from the ground and rushed towards the mutated fruits above.
“Person in charge, this is the ability of the Giant Shadow Wolf.”
Zheng Xinglong opened his mouth and explained to Xu Lin.
At the same time, several shadow ropes fused together and formed a large shadow cloth. It slowly descended and finally stopped in front of the human.
The shadow cloth quickly unfolded and revealed the items inside. It was 48 silver mutated fruits.
“I see.”
Looking at the scene in front of him, Xu Lin came to a sudden realization.
“Xiao Chen, put away the drone. Go and pack these fruits first.”
“Yes, Manager.”
Looking at the manager’s surprised and shocked expression, Su Ming nodded in satisfaction.
Although the wolf pack and humans were in a cooperative relationship, he did not suggest showing off the strength of the giant wolves in front of his allies.
Xu Lin was shocked again. He had seen the abilities of many creatures, but this was the first time he had seen something like the shadow.
From the looks of it, not only was the leader of the Wolf King, but the three giant wolves behind him also had considerable strength.
Just as Xu Lin was deep in thought, the researcher beside him suddenly spoke.
“Manager!”
Xu Lin turned around and asked in puzzlement.
“What’s wrong, Xiao Chen?”
The researcher raised the silver fruit in his hand and said.
“According to the feedback from the detection II, the value of the mutated fruit is 592. This seems to be a deviation from the value detected by the base previously.”
“Also, the person in charge, there are some golden edges on the top of the fruit in my hand. It seems to be still in the process of mutation.”
Xu Lin was shocked. This was not a small matter.
“What! ?”
He hurriedly took the mutated fruit from the other party’s hand and observed it carefully. It was indeed as the researcher had said.
There was a golden edge on the top of the fruit. This meant that there seemed to be a possibility of continued mutation.
Could it be that this fruit was not fully ripe yet?
That was not right. According to the report that Captain Zheng gave him, the giant wolf and those birds of prey had their strength increased after eating the mutated fruit.
According to this conclusion, at least it proved that the mutated fruit in his hand had the effect of greatly increasing the strength of mutated creatures.
This should have already reached the standard, but why was it not fully mutated yet.
Holding the fruit in his hand tightly, Xu Lin looked at the giant wolf in front of him, looking at the silver-white pupils of the wolf.
He realized that humans seemed to have been fooled by the Wolf Pack again.
“Your Excellency Wolf King, can you explain to us why this fruit is still in the process of mutation? This doesn’t seem to be in line with our previous transaction conditions.”
Su Ming nodded slightly, picked up a tree branch that was scattered nearby, and slowly wrote.
[ what you have is a mature mutated fruit. There is no doubt about this, but it is just a little special. ]
If Su Ming knew what Xu Lin was thinking at this moment, he would definitely sigh helplessly.
In reality, the fruit that humans held in their hands was indeed a mutated fruit. This definitely met the conditions of their transaction.
“What do you mean, sir?”? Whether it was the increase in its value or the golden edges, this fruit was still in the process of mutation. Forcefully plucking it was undoubtedly destroying its mutation. Agreeing to it also unintentionally caused us humans to lose a few fruits that should have had better effects.”
Listening to Xu Lin’s complaints, Su Ming knew that he did not listen to his own words.
[ I can guarantee that you humans did not suffer any substantial losses in this transaction. Believe me, you would not want to miss this mutated fruit. However, if you want to know a more detailed explanation, you will need to give us wolves something valuable in exchange. What do you think? Manager Xu. ]
Looking at the other party’s confident appearance, Xu Lin hesitated.
The Wolf King was right. Judging from the effects of the mutated fruit, it was indeed a fruit that could not be missed.
However, Xu Lin could also see from the words that the other party was hinting at something.
That’s right.
Since they could see that the mutated fruit was still in a state of mutation, there was no reason that the wolf pack could not see it.
However, the other party still swallowed it and did not wait for the mutation to succeed before eating it.
There must be something hidden in it. The Wolf Pack knew about the effect, but humans knew nothing about it.
According to the practice of the mutated fruit, the effect of most of the fruits would gradually decrease every time they were consumed, until it completely lost its effect. Some of them could only take one fruit.
After thinking for a moment, Xu Lin looked at the wolf king in front of him and asked seriously.
“May I know what item you want, Wolf King? As long as we humans have it, we will definitely exchange it with you.”
Speaking of what they wanted, other than giving the life cores to the rest of the wolf pack, it should be the mutated plants that the four wolves needed to evolve.
Unfortunately, whether it was the magma belt or the Leizhe region, they were not places that humans could go deep into.
They still wanted to ask Su Ming to help them bring back some things. There was no way he could help them bring out Lei Ming he and the Lava Polygonum.
Su Ming shook his head. He would not consider this issue for the time being. It would be better to leave it behind and wait for the time when he really needed to use it in the future.
[ I know two kinds of information about the mutated fruit. I want to use this to exchange for two favors from you humans, or rather, from the person in charge. I will use it at a critical moment in the future. ]
