Chapter 109 - New Choice, Meeting an Old Acquaintance!
On the outskirts of Lorraine Forest, while Stark was hunting mutated beasts, the members of the Flame Wolf Guild had also arrived at the edge of the forest.
“Helena, what do you think is wrong with these monsters? Why are they charging towards a certain place!”
In the crowd, a man looked at the forest in front of him and spoke first.
“I don’t know, but I have a feeling that there must be some treasure that drove them to charge in regardless of their lives!”
Helena spoke coldly.
“Treasure? Then should we report it to President Flame Wolf?”
The man asked.
“There’s no rush. This matter is of great importance. Before this, it was just my guess.
“Wait until the number of monsters is a little lower. We’ll think of a way to go in and find out what the situation is before we make any plans!”
Helena said with a deep gaze.
At this moment, Stark, who was still in the midst of killing, could clearly feel that the number of ferocious beasts had started to decrease drastically.
In the frenzied slaughter of these mutated plants, the ferocious beasts finally could not hold on any longer.
After all, these plants were monsters comparable to a lord.
Even an elite ferocious beast could only die in front of these plants.
And compared to ferocious beasts, mutated plants had another advantage—tenacity.
After killing for so long, these plants were still as energetic as before. They continued to kill without stopping.
If it wasn’t for the leader-level monster controlling them from behind the scenes, these ferocious beasts would have long scattered.
Moreover, Stark could feel that the ferocious beasts on the field were not only the ones he had pulled over.
There were also many beasts that had escaped from the Lorraine Forest.
The number had long surpassed the previous 80,000.
The maturity of the seed in Stark’s mind was about to be completed!
The originally tender shoots had grown to over a foot long, bearing a fruit.
A bewitching red fruit was emitting a red glow.
It was particularly eye-catching in the forest.
At this moment, a notification suddenly sounded!
[Ding. The seed is about to mature. You have two choices!]
[One, continue to let the seed mature and grow into an Evil King Fruit. You will receive an awakening and receive a large number of rewards!]
[Two, continue to kill the members of your species. Use the blood of 10,000 of the same species to let the Evil King Fruit grow again. After consuming it, the rewards will double!]
What?
If he wanted to level up, he had to continue killing?!
Moreover, he had to kill the same species. Didn’t that mean that he had to kill humans?
Stark didn’t expect that once he was about to kill 100,000 monsters with this mutated plant, another choice would appear.
He had already been ruthless in order to awaken his class.
But he did not expect the system to be even more ruthless!
It even gave him another choice, to use the blood of his own kind to irrigate this evil demon fruit!
Moreover, the number was a terrifying 10,000!
If the target this time again was a monster, Stark would have continued the slaughter.
But this time, he actually had to kill the same kind, which meant that he had to massacre humans!
Stark began to hesitate.
This was a human’s way of thinking.
Killing monsters, Stark’s heart would not waver at all.
And killing 100 or 200 people, Stark would still steel his resolve. There was no problem.
But if he wanted to kill 10,000 people, this made Stark involuntarily falter.
And at this moment.
“Rustle rustle…”
A slight sound of footsteps that was different from that of a monster rang in Stark’s ears.
If it wasn’t for Stark’s high basic attributes, this sound would have been easily covered by the noise of the monsters.
“The other party might have used a skill that reduces perception!”
Stark quickly came to a conclusion. Following the sound, he noticed that there were nearly ten people not far away from him. They were approaching the surroundings of the old locust tree in a ghostly manner.
As they had a skill that reduced their perception, the beasts that had their numbers greatly reduced did not notice them.
“Look, beside the old locust tree, there seems to be a red fruit!”
“I saw it. That fruit is actually glowing. Could it be that these monsters are crazy because of this fruit?”
“I think that fruit might be an incredible treasure!”
“That’s right. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many beasts crazily snatching this flower!”
Discussions spread among them.
While hiding his figure, Stark arrived not far from them.
With their strength, they naturally couldn’t discover Stark’s figure.
Moreover, their conversation fell into Stark’s ears.
“Helena, what do you think we should do? Shouldn’t we inform Boss Flame Wolf?”
At this moment, someone in the crowd whispered.
“Helena?” Stark raised his eyebrows
A female figure carrying a bow and arrow immediately entered his sight.
This woman had a pretty face, and her figure was extremely tall with a different charm.
When he saw her, a cold smile suddenly appeared on Stark’s lips.
“It’s her?”
He knew Helena.
They were classmates in high school. However, Helena’s family was quite wealthy.
As for Stark’s father, he was a farmer.
They belonged to two different worlds.
However, one day in high school, Stark’s mother called him and told him that his father had been beaten up.
At that time, Stark was stunned and immediately rushed home in fear.
Helena’s father, in order to collude with the developers to sell the land to make money, had sold the Stark family’s farmland at a low price.
After Stark’s father found out the truth, he went to argue. However, not only did he not get the farmland back, but he was also beaten up.
When Stark found out the truth, he was naturally furious. However, the other party had paid a huge sum of money, so he could only give up.
On that day, when Stark was at school, he was given a thorough beating!
After the incident, he found out that the assailants were actually Helena’s followers.
At that time, because of her appearance, there were naturally a lot of followers around her.
When those followers heard about what happened at Helena’s house, they stood up for Helena’s father.
They said that Stark’s father was a scammer. They wanted to teach Stark a lesson.
Helena naturally acquiesced.
On the third day, Stark came to class with a black eye.
Originally, the matter should have ended here, but who knew after Helena saw Stark’s injury, she took out a thousand dollars from her pocket and gave it to him.
She even said sarcastically in front of the entire class, “Stark, your father extorted money from my father first. Those people beat you just to appease my father. For the sake of the students, I’ll pay you some money too!
“Don’t let your father cause trouble with my father again in the future.”
It was a typical slap and a candy.
Moreover, this sentence seemed simple.
But it was pushing all the responsibility onto Stark!
