Chapter 277: Hui Guo Rou

The capital of the Kakin Empire.

In a certain underground space.

Hui Guo Rou stood with his hands behind his back, his fat cheeks revealing only two tiny bean-like eyes, radiating an unreadable expression.

Before him was a large glass window, inside the room several medical staff in white uniforms bustled about.

Lying on the platform was none other than the severely wounded Yang De.

Since being subdued by Luo Ge, Yang De had returned to Kakin and claimed that everyone else had been wiped out.

Only he, dragging his grievously wounded body, had barely escaped with his life.

Top-tier medical talent was treating him; these injuries were all self-inflicted to enhance credibility.

He knew Hui Guo Rou better than anyone.

Only by doing this could he make Hui Guo Rou believe he had barely escaped.

Hui Guo Rou watched silently, his doubts gradually fading.

To be honest.

When he heard that not a single member of the Qianer Society had survived, and only Yang De had escaped, he had indeed suspected Yang De.

Just as Yang De understood Hui Guo Rou's nature, Hui Guo Rou understood Yang De.

But upon closer thought, such a scenario didn't add up, and the severed arm wound was far too severe.

He had believed Yang De's words.

【Gelo Company… Luo Ge?】

【I underestimated him after all】

Hui Guo Rou thought silently to himself.

He knew Luo Ge's strength was inferior, but he hadn't expected it to be this strong.

More than ten top-tier Nen users plus Yang De couldn't hold him back.

Moreover, the covert forces Gelo had cultivated were far more extensive than he had anticipated.

In this battle, he had suffered a catastrophic loss.

The Qianer Society, painstakingly built over years, now had only a handful of survivors; all truly important members had been wiped out.

This wasn't just a massive loss of strength—it was the complete severing of the Rener Society, a vital intelligence network.

Without sufficient personnel, he could no longer plant spies across the Six Continents as he once had.

All the years of effort had turned to dust!

He had provoked the upstart Gelo Company—and gained nothing.

Hui Guo Rou's expression shifted several times.

Finally, he let out a cold snort and turned away.

He needed to think carefully about how to deal with Gelo Company next.

…

A week later.

In a luxurious villa.

Luo Ge stood in silence.

Before him was a large machine, now operating steadily under his control.

A box beside him held a large quantity of Energy Cubes, all of excellent quality, yet carelessly piled.

There were simply too many—he had no shortage.

He was using the 【Fruit Mixer】 to produce Energy Cubes.

Since first attempting to make Basic Energy Cubes, he had now mastered the craft and could reliably produce Advanced Energy Cubes.

The difference between Advanced Energy Cubes and Basic Energy Cubes wasn't merely a change of one character.

Without exaggeration, Advanced Energy Cubes could be called 【Little Hope】.

They provided massive energy, rapid recovery of physical strength, Nen, even healing of injuries, granting life energy and improving constitution.

Such precious items, he could mass-produce.

But he was still unsatisfied.

He wanted to produce the supreme-grade Ultra Energy Cubes.

He firmly believed that at the Ultra level, the effects of Energy Cubes would undergo a qualitative transformation.

The Fruit Mixer continued to turn.

Luo Ge had a premonition, and unconsciously sped up his operations; immediately, a thick, rich aroma poured forth from the machine.

He opened the lid.

An exquisite fragrance surged forth, like an endless stream of sweet smoke, swiftly tinting the room a honeyed hue.

Luo Ge's face lit up with joy.

Success!

Gazing at the Ultra Energy Cube, radiant like a supreme gemstone, Luo Ge couldn't help but salivate.

At the same time, Luo Ge sensed an intensely potent life energy within the fragrant mist.

The aroma carried within it a vibrant surge of spring greenery, invigorating the spirit.

Merely smelling this scent, Luo Fei felt as if he had devoured several top-tier dishes from the Six Continents.

Even his internal Nen subtly stirred, and the long-standing bottleneck he had long struggled against began to loosen.

Feeling the life energy continuously radiating from the cube, Luo Ge felt every pore on his body open wide.

Each one greedily sucked in every trace of life energy, terrified of missing even the slightest bit.

This piece of top-grade quality energy cube did not resemble candy; it looked more like a bowl of solidified, pure life energy.

The scent it emitted was like tiny sprites circling around the tip of his nose.

Whether from the outside world or within his own body, everything was telling him without cease to swallow this thing.

【Top-Grade Quality Energy Cube】:

An existence found only once in ten thousand.

A top-grade quality product that only a top master, having repeated the process countless times and constantly refined the technique, could produce.

Because it contains vast life energy, creatures who eat it can extend their lifespan to a certain degree.

Depending on the species of the creature and the differences between individual organisms.

The lifespan extension provided by the Top-Grade Quality Energy Cube also varies.

The massive energy provided also aids in all-around improvement for the creature, even reaching the effect of evolution.

In this regard, it is roughly equivalent to the effect of three 【Rare Candies】.

At the same time, precisely because the Top-Grade Quality Energy Cube contains immense life energy.

creatures cannot consume too much within a short time.

When the feeling of a bloated stomach arises and swallowing becomes difficult, the body's absorption limit has been reached.

If one forces it down, there is a risk of exploding and dying.

Conversely, if one stops upon reaching the limit, this life energy will act thoroughly upon the body.

The effects include but are not limited to greatly enhancing physical constitution, beautifying the skin, increasing a large amount of psychic energy, extending lifespan...

The effect of the Top-Grade Quality Energy Cube will have a tolerance period.

If one eats until reaching the body's tolerance limit the first time, the next time one eats, one must wait until the energy within the body is fully digested.

Otherwise, the effect will be greatly reduced.

Luo Ge swallowed his saliva, delayed no longer, and directly threw the Top-Grade Quality Energy Cube into his mouth.

Luo Ge felt only a flavor indescribable by words burst open in his mouth.

His eyes instantly widened, yet he did not stop in his mouth, chewing frantically again and again.

The charming aroma danced on his tongue; his taste buds opened instantly, indulging freely in the most delicious food in history.

At the same time, countless warm currents surged within his body, flowing to every corner of his physique, warm as if he were immersed in a hot spring.

The aura he emitted became even more terrifying!
