Chapter 417: Chapter 250 Can I Sleep Now?_1
At the world hub, the Dimension Beast reluctantly hunched on the ground, its body swelling up like an inflatable balloon, expanding rapidly into a gargantuan creature about fifty meters in diameter.
Albeit being larger, its fur grew longer too, standing erect, making it look like a huge furball or a sea urchin.
In fact, it wasn’t too keen on this whole dimensional drift business. Even though it was a Dimension Beast, a native dimensional creature, the voyage was perilous; a slight slip and it could easily be lost in void space.
It wouldn’t die, but it could get lost, perhaps never return.
Indeed, it did have believers. The Dimensional God’s Servant Serenne could help it pinpoint its location but in the dimensional world, anything could happen. If it drifted too far away and couldn’t sense Serenne, it wouldn’t be able to find its way back.
But, despite its reluctance, the big cat, as a man of its word, would keep its promise. It would carry out whatever it pledged, even with tears in its eyes. Awooo~~
Seeing the big cat nearly wailing, Ange walked over and pulled out a Fruit of Life.
The furball opened its big eyes, took one look, and unimpressed, rolled its eyes away.
Ange pulled out nine more Fruits of Life, piling up a total of ten.
The big cat’s eyes rolled back, glanced at the pile, and hesitated a bit.
Ange pulled out ten more Fruits of Life, a whopping twenty huge fruits all piled together.
The big cat’s eyes went wide; staring intently at the pile, its body making a ‘gluglu’ sound.
“Is... is there really a fruit that prolongs life in this world?” Serenne trembled with excitement. Her excess flab shuddered, making people dizzy.
Negris felt dizzy and said unhappily: “Don’t shake, don’t shake, of course there is; the Fruit of Life is exactly that.”
“Can I buy one? How much? Can you sell one to me?” Serenne grabbed Negris’s tiny claw, coaxing him playfully with an alluring smile.
Unfortunately, she was not up to Negris’s aesthetic standards; his response was a hard no. “Buy? Even if I sold you, we couldn’t afford half of one. When the elves announced a bounty to treat the blight disease of the Tree of Life, they were only willing to offer one seed, and a single Fruit of Life contains thousands of seeds.”
Although the elves were only willing to give out a single seed, it was not due to their stinginess. They could exchange it for several million Magic Crystals. They just didn’t want to let the seeds leak out.
Seeing Serenne’s disappointment, Negris consoled her. “Don’t be too disappointed. Eating one or two fruits doesn’t have much effect. Only regular long-term consumption can extend life. Even if you can indeed afford it, unless you eat it for decades, your life won’t be extended much. It’s better to eat a light diet for a longer life.”
He added further, “Although one or two won’t affect lifespan, the first fruit you eat will noticeably enhance vitality. Once vitality is enhanced, blood circulation becomes vigorous, and metabolism quickens. It’s quite effective for ailments like kidney pain, blood stasis, bad breath, nasal polyps, migraines, weak waist and legs, stomach flu, vertigo, and many others.”
“If your body has many minor issues, eating one can clear most of them up. Unfortunately, you can’t afford it.” Negris said regretfully.
Serenne squatted at the side, covering her heart, mourning for her own poverty.
On the other side, Ange and the Dimension Beast finally agreed on conditions. The big cat swiped its paw, and the fifty Fruits of Life disappeared into its fur. It then spat out a fist-sized transparent crystal.
Ange picked up the transparent crystal, tilting his head in confusion.
Before the Dimension Beast could explain, a figure blinked in front of them as Hiludi, the Terrifying Space Magician, appeared. Her eyes were glittering as she stared at the transparent crystal. Her head leaning closer as she flirtatiously fluttered her eyelashes at Ange, hoping he would let her take a look at the crystal.
