After he parted ways with Lin Xiyue, Jiang Chen didn’t go home. Instead, he found a hotel within the “village” that was stationed near the dungeon and stayed there overnight.
It’s a popular dungeon, so naturally there would be such a place for people to visit.
There were hotels, shops, and a Material Station…
Of course, the price for one night wasn’t low, it’s actually 1,000 yuan!
After all, they were outside of the perimeter of the city and faced the risk of a monster attack, which required a hefty protection.
…
Night fell, the surroundings grew quiet, but from far, voices could be heard.
Jiang Chen left the village and arrived at the dense forest.
As the Nine Winged Miasma was ready to reproduce, it could catch a disturbance…
It was better to keep the whole thing a secret!
That was also the main reason why he didn’t return to the city!
As he went deeper into the forest, there was no other person’s presence under the moon’s light.
A faint sense of urgency rose in his heart.
After waiting for another thirty minutes, he found a dead tree trunk and with a thought, he opened Little Nine’s attribute panel:
[Nine Winged Miasma (Calamity)]
[Nickname: Little Nine]
[Function: EXP Return (Devoured energy will be given back as EXP, only applicable to Mother Insect)]
[Level: Lv10]
[Devouring rate: 1.4% (can be improved by 1 level each time it reaches 100%)]
[Bond rate: 100 (eternal bond)]
[Offspring: 0 (every time the level is increased by 10, the Mother Insect can reproduce once! Subsequent offspring can only reproduce once!]
[Talent: Poisonous Miasma Form, Poison Mist, Wing Burst…]
[Introduction: An ancient otherworldly species from the lands of the Nether Region of the Ninth Underworld. Once a great catastrophe to the world, the Nine Winged Miasma is now extinct. She is as small as a pea, black and purple with nine wings, bearing terrifying poison. Anyone who touches her will die! She can turn into a purple miasma.]
[Status: Ready to reproduce]
[…]
“Little Nine can be stored in my system storage, but the offspring cannot…”
“Looks like I’ll need a special space for the insects to gather!”
That was fine for now.
But after some time, he’ll have more insects…
It would become a hassle!
The typical storage space that was given to every Awakened cannot keep living beings.
Only space equipment created by dimensional pieces could, but the price of such a thing was high…
Jiang Chen pondered and decided to keep this aside for now.
After his conscious command, the prompt appeared:
[Host has triggered the Nine Winged Miasma’s reproduction.]
[Number of offspring: 108]
[Host has used the ability [Growth of All], triggering acceleration of the speed of reproduction by 70 times!]
[Reproduction has been accelerated, remaining time: 3.42 hours]
It wasn’t so bad.
He knew that the growth acceleration would be from 10 to 100 times, but he didn’t expect 70 times!
It’s so quick!
The space around Little Nine seemed to be threaded by a giant invisible hand, causing it to visibly fluctuate.
Threads of colorful wisps floated out of the space, connecting to her body!
They start to create a bundle, forming something the size of a ball, similar to an egg shell!
The wisps of color were densely packed, like an umbilical cord extracting from the space.
Under the influence of such an odd creation, the moonlight’s eye-catching feature seemed to fall behind.
The region surrounding Jiang Chen seemed to have been torn apart.
“The time I need to wait is not too long…”
Jiang Chen closed his eyes and considered: “If each offspring can split into 100, then the second generation will be more than 10,000!”
The third generation would be 1 million!
The fourth generation would be 100 million!
“As long as I have enough resources…creating my Calamity army won’t be an issue!”
Truly, the speed of completing the dungeon was too slow.
But if he let his insects devour in the wild, the risk would be too high…
First, it would alert the beast clan’s chieftain.
Second, it would cause an official investigation.
“I hope that after the Heavenly Recruit camp, the resources I’ll get will be enough to get up to the third generation…”
If he got an unlimited supply, even more if it’s high class, it would be great!
…
Time passed and at 12 o’clock in the morning, Jiang Chen, who’s sitting down cross-legged, finally opened his eyes.
There’s still half an hour left on the countdown.
“I need to check the Ancient Tree of All, and see what fruit it bore…”
After the Awakening of his Divine rank, Jiang Chen got three talents.
Growth of All and Divine Evolution were what he could expect to get from his class, they were both Multi abilities. But the third addition, the Ancient Tree of All, was unknown.
Ancient Tree of All!
[An unique existence that produces a fruit daily, the Host will receive a gift if he picks it.]
Its description was brief, leaving it shrouded in mystery.
Also, the phenomenon that covered the whole sky during his Awakening was in the form of a tree!
His mind was full of countless theories.
He withdrew his thoughts and sank into his sea of consciousness where the tree grew.
As for why the talents gained from the Awakening could present themselves into the sea of consciousness…that he couldn’t comprehend.
In front of him, the Ancient Tree of All wasn’t full of luster, it had a trunk as thick as a palm.
Its roots were densely packed, connected deep within his consciousness.
He could vaguely see the green energy that was floating around the roots, bringing a warmth to his spirit.
Maybe it didn’t have a huge benefit to him at that moment, but he had a feeling that it would be greatly beneficial to him in the future!
“Let’s pick the fruit!”
The tree bore one fruit a day, and that day there was a tiny green fruit that was the size of a fist.
As Jiang Chen grabbed the fruit, it turned into a spot of light that traveled to the trunk of the tree.
New information popped up in Jiang Chen’s mind:
You obtained [Wondrous Fruit(Green)]
Information about the odd being: Mother Insect’s Nest…
