Chapter 350: Dawn-Dew Fruit

Rod plucked three Dawn-Dew Fruits.

Setting aside the pleasurable strange sounds Little Li Zi made, the three fruits contained a great deal of spiritual energy.

Come to think of it, this effect is much the same as the function of the 【Molar Earrings】.

It's just that the quantity falls far short of them.

Rod thought for a moment and asked, "How is the yield of these fruits?"

"Replying to my lord Rod, judging by the current density of spiritual energy in the forest, two fruits can bear per year."

Barely acceptable.

However, as the forest advances in tier, the spiritual energy will inevitably surge greatly, and the yield may well increase even more afterward.

Thinking thus.

He distributed the three Dawn-Dew Fruits to the spider-elf Watching Yuna, the half-deer Miss Xiao Ke, and the fairy Tami beside him.

Miss Xiao Ke paused for a moment, intending to shake her head and refuse.

But recalling that Rod had once told her that her prophecy was an indispensable part of the forest, she remained silent for a moment before accepting it anyway.

Watching Yuna knew her own accumulation of spiritual energy was insufficient.

Through understanding gained over this period, she had learned that the forest's potential enemies were Coral Bay, which possessed two great dragons.

If her strength is too low, she cannot help her master; if she cannot help her master, then I might as well have simply died in the Arena of Dread back then.

She bowed and accepted the fruit.

Tami had no such thoughts; her face was full of surprise and great joy.

"Really? Can it really be given to Tami?!"

"Those who see get a share."

"Oh yeah!!!"

While applying a bit of 【Growth Spiritual Energy】 to the trees within the radiation range of the 【Emerald Domain】,

Rod observed the state of the girls after they consumed the Dawn-Dew Fruits.

He was mainly observing the fairy.

As the saying goes, big is good, good is big.

Having a large size against a small size carries a natural advantage.

Just look at adult giants, starting at Tier Six; although a large portion of them have poor intelligence, they are simply big.

Physical strength, power strength, skin, bones, and so on are all several times higher than normal humans.

【Giant Strength】 and 【Giant Constitution】 are no joke.

If a human of the same tier were to fight them, they could be kicked to pieces by a giant only five or six meters tall.

However.

This is merely a comparison of physical strength.

Facing reality requires great responsibility.

Consider that giants' innate talents are all invested in their bodies, with almost no active skills.

Facing human spiritual arts and spells, many variables can arise.

In short.

The fairy Tami's spiritual energy accumulation is only Tier Two; her small size means her strength and constitution are quite poor, so Rod was truly afraid she might be burst open by the spiritual energy of the Dawn-Dew Fruit.

Fortunately, there was no problem; it was fine.

After the three consumed the fruits, they all experienced good growth.

Last night, Watching Yuna had already reached the high stage of Tier Five; after consuming the Dawn-Dew Fruit, she went straight to the mid-stage of Tier Six.

Miss Xiao Ke reached the initial stage of Tier Six, while Tami made the greatest progress, appearing to have reached the initial stage of Tier Four.

The three made progress differently, which relates to each person's speed of digesting spiritual energy.

But they were all very happy regardless.

Especially Watching Yuna, who was already brimming with tears.

Seeing her advance too quickly, Rod noticed her spiritual energy was somewhat unstable.

He pulled her to a hidden spot and once again savored the beauty of the chelicerae and the closing cavity in her mouth.

Here, he did not use 【Elibert's Amorous Secret Manual】, but instead used 【Symbiotic Unity】 from the Plague Domain to help harmonize her body.

Miss Xiao Ke knew what they were going to do and, in anger, led Tami and the treeman Little Li Zi away.

In truth, her heart was filled with bitterness and resentment, with a faint trace of longing as well.

The passage of time suddenly accelerated.

In the blink of an eye, a month passed, arriving in late December.

To hasten the growth of the forest people's strength, the small villa at Henry Farm had completely turned into a love den.

From the entrance hall on the first floor to the kitchen, and from the staircase on the second floor to Pan Ni's wardrobe, every space, every corner, bore the traces of Rod and the girls.

Every night, the artillery fire raged, the thunderous rumbling shaking everything.

Furthermore, a new skill named 【Enchanted by Love】 was added, whose main function is 'to stimulate the girls' desire and sensitivity through words'.

To give an example, take the ghoul Pan Ni, whose body is the most dull.

Rod merely whispering words of love into her ear, the power of the Domain could continuously stimulate her body, thereby reaching the peak of the soul.

However, the power of the Domain is still too overwhelming.

Using it on the girls carries the risk of breaking them, so Rod uses this move quite cautiously.

Wind Wall Forest, Bai Yu District.

Rod sat on a rock, watching the giant squirrel Cui Qian arranging the collected branches into a special shape.

Tally had transformed into a little-sister persona with an appearance similar to his, her long hair cascading like a waterfall.

She lay lazily across his back.

Her hands affectionately looped around his neck, and she mischievously blew a breath into his ear.

Rod had just come out of the artillery shed, taken a stroll around the forest, and discovered that today was the day off for the grey squirrels of the World Tree dimension.

The big squirrel Cui Qian was performing a summoning spell.

Calling it a spell wasn't quite rigorous, really.

After all, she needed neither mana nor any properly inscribed magical circuits — she was simply arranging twigs into different patterns.

"Hey — Cui Qian, aren't you done yet?"

The little horse-girl Little Little Bangde mumbled, urging her on.

Her good friend's friend was coming to play, so naturally she had to come join the fun too.

"Little Little Bangde, let me remind you of one thing — don't think that just because someone is visiting the forest you can skip your lessons. They still can't be reduced."

The elf Lady Kali strolled over unhurriedly from afar and said coldly.

Behind her followed the wooden, wooden-faced rat-person Number Thirteen.

This month, Rod and the elf hadn't met many times.

She was busy arranging a large-scale advancement ceremony; the Wind-Wall Forest was vast, and just the setup alone had already taken nearly two months.

He really had no idea where she got so many resources.

The moment Little Little Bangde saw Lady Kali, she hunched her shoulders and muttered a glum "okay."

"Good morning."

"And you as well."

Lady Kali, on the other hand, saw Rod laughing on the side and immediately turned the gun on him.

Compared to the relatively mild tone just now, now it could already be called ice-cold.

"Who could possibly be as absurd as you? The racket every night is so loud — don't you know it interferes with my advancement ceremony for the forest?"

"I just get a little loud, how does that interfere with your ceremony?"

Besides—

Henry Farm was some distance from the forest; no matter how loud the sound, it couldn't reach the ears of her, who lived in the Eucalyptus District.

"Shut up! You shameless, unrestrained, foolish human — you'll die in bed sooner or later and leave a stench for ten thousand years, a breeding tool with no bottom line or morals."

Lady Kali's face had already flushed with anger.

Her clear, bright emerald-green beautiful eyes fixed on Rod, her icy gaze wandering back and forth across his neck and body.

And Tally on Rod's back, who had always been at odds with Lady Kali, met her gaze and, in provocation, stuck out her long pink tongue and licked her master's neck, leaving a wet trail.

"I think it's also time you learned some restraint, human."
