Chapter 97 Life-Type Divine Fruit
Zishan directed the Rhinoceros Tortoise warriors to join the queue. In a line of hundreds of Zerg warriors, the sudden addition of thirty or so Zerg warriors caused no significant disturbance.
Only a few Zerg warriors would occasionally glance at them, but they didn't care.
On the Thousand Star Islands, there are countless types of Zerg warriors, numbering in the tens of thousands. Unless a Zerg is extremely wealthy and powerful, other Zerg warriors will generally not notice them.
Yew led the Rhinoceros Tortoise warriors to the back of the line. It watched as the Zerg warriors entered the building in an orderly fashion, and then emerged from another passage shortly afterward.
Furthermore, it noticed a peculiar mark on the foreheads of these emerging Zerg warriors, which it assumed was the life mark that the White-headed Armor King and the others had mentioned.
Zishan was puzzled as to how much Force would be required to brand so many Zerg warriors with life marks on their foreheads.
There are at least three or four hundred Zerg warriors here. If the Zerg King were to mark so many Zerg warriors with the life mark all at once, he probably wouldn't be able to handle it.
It stood behind the Zerg warriors of other tribes, quietly listening to them gossip about the Thousand Star Islands while they waited in line.
The other side also noticed the yew trees behind them, but they didn't care and continued to gossip as if no one else was around.
After a while, Zishan watched the line move slowly forward, feeling that the time was about right and she was quite ready, and asked curiously, "Friends, this is my first time on Lotus Island, and I'm not very familiar with this place. I'd like to ask, with so many Zerg warriors queuing up here, which Zerg King is it that's marking us with our life seal?"
Upon hearing Zishan's question, the two insects in front turned slightly to look at it, examined its shape and color, estimated its size and the faint fluctuations of its primal force, and immediately determined that it was a Twin-Forked Rhinoceros Tortoise Warrior that had just advanced to the advanced stage, and that it was the kind of insect that evolved by eating various high-quality primal force foods.
The better the Zerg warriors eat, the wealthier their tribe is, and the world is exceptionally tolerant of wealthy Zerg.
The two Zerg warriors chuckled, "We wonder where this friend from the Twin-Forked Rhinoceros Beetle tribe comes from. Your tribe must be quite wealthy, right?"
The yew tree humbly waved its antennae: "We are just a small tribe, and our origins are insignificant. What? Does this have anything to do with the question I just asked?"
"No, no, I was just curious because you have a very strong physique."
Zishan didn't let their politeness go to her head and forget her question: "Friends, which insect king is casting the life imprint ability on us?"
It glanced at the two Zerg warriors: one was a West Coast Cockroach warrior, and the other was a Blacktail Tick warrior. These two Zerg were considered to be among the larger tribes on the Thousand Star Islands.
Even though it's from Xiangjiao Island, I've heard of their tribe's reputation, but I don't know why they would come here alone to sign up for the coastal defense training.
"My friend, you've misunderstood. There's more than one Zerg King inside using its abilities to mark the Zerg warriors."
"More than one Insect King?" Zishan was somewhat surprised upon hearing this. "Could it be that there are many Insect Kings doing this work?"
Seeing the yew tree's thirst for knowledge, the Black-tailed Tick Warrior couldn't help but smugly shake its antennae: "You may not know this, but the Cabbage White Butterfly tribe on Thousand Star Island possesses potential talents in life and wood elements. After advancing to the Mountain Lord level, they have a chance to awaken the ability of the Life Mark."
Although cabbage white butterfly warriors are not good at fighting, they have many healing abilities, so many cabbage white butterfly warriors exist as support insects in the coastal defense force.
In addition to the insect kings who join the coastal defense forces, the cabbage white butterfly tribe also sends some other butterfly kings and lords to help with the work every March, which can be considered a form of cooperation.
They imprinted a life mark on the Zerg warriors joining the coastal defense training. This life mark has many functions; it is a life enhancement ability that can continue to function.
"I see." Upon hearing the explanation, Zishan suddenly understood and couldn't help but feel a little envious of the life-type enhancement ability. This was even more valuable than the wood-type support ability, and insect warriors with such abilities were popular wherever they went.
The West Bank cockroach warrior chimed in, glancing around furtively like a thief, and retorted with a low mental focus, "What I've heard is different from what you've said. I've heard that the Cabbage White Butterfly tribe possesses a divinely bestowed seed of the Life-type Divine Rank."
Eating the fruit from this divinely bestowed seed awakens the power of the Life Mark, which is why so many Cabbage White Butterfly warriors possess this ability.
"A divine fruit? And a life-type one at that?" Upon hearing this, Zishan subconsciously lowered her mental focus and asked in shock.
There isn't a single divinely bestowed seed on the entire Xiangjiao Island. Perhaps there are, but no tribe has ever revealed it.
But as soon as they arrived, they heard about the divine fruit, and on Banana Island, the divine seed was a secret item that even the lord-level Zerg warriors had never heard of.
In the Thousand Star Islands, even a high-level warrior can openly mention the existence of divine fruits while chatting and gossiping with other Zerg warriors.
Zishan believed that even they knew that the higher-level Zerg warriors, such as the Mountain Lords, Lords, and even the Zerg King, would certainly have more transparent information.
This cannot be blamed on the ignorance and shallowness of the lords of Banana Island; it is simply a difference in perspective between small and large places.
The Zerg warriors on Banana Island primarily manage their territories, and the various tribes only maintain contact with each other during trade fairs. Zerg society is inherently isolated, and they rarely know about items beyond their imagination.
Just like the yew trees, if it weren't for the special case of the yew tree, even with the guidance of the Lord of Zehui Mountain, they would never have dared to ask about this special divinely bestowed seed when they knew nothing about it.
If it hadn't inquired and learned about it before, the other Zerg warriors would probably still be completely clueless when talking about the divine-grade, divinely bestowed seed, not knowing what everyone was talking about.
With a thirst for knowledge, Zishan asked, "What is this fruit called? How many years does it take to harvest a batch?"
How many pieces are produced in one batch? What is the price?
The West Coast cockroach warrior gently swayed its antennae: "I've only heard about this fruit from other Zerg warriors chatting. It seems to be called Jade Cicada Fruit. As for how many years it takes to produce a batch of this fruit, and how many fruits are produced in a batch, that's not something we should know."
But I heard that this fruit is very expensive, costing 300 million Origin Stones per fruit, and that's based on the price of divinely bestowed Origin Force food.
"300 million Originium per stone? And it's priced with God-given Originium Food?" Zishan and Zi Ai, who were eavesdropping behind them, were shocked once again.
Although they had heard from the Lord of Zehui Mountain that divine fruits were very expensive, even the most ordinary divine fruit cost 300 million raw stones.
But when they actually heard that a single fruit was equivalent to the entire harvest of all the divinely bestowed seeds of their tribe for a year, they couldn't help but feel a twisted envy on their faces.
No wonder the Lord of Zehui Mountain said that no matter which tribe it is, as long as it possesses a divinely bestowed seed, that tribe will be able to develop rapidly.
Based on this price, if a single Divine-grade Divine-given Seed produces 12 fruits in a batch, it would be worth 3600 million Origin Stones.
Even if their entire tribe didn't eat or drink for five years, they couldn't accumulate this many raw stones. One such divinely bestowed seed is equivalent to fifty or sixty ordinary divinely bestowed seeds. How could the tribe not be wealthy?
The yew tree nodded heavily, its antennae twitching: "It's very expensive!"
Hearing Zishan's words, the two Zerg warriors were speechless: "It's not just expensive, it's outrageously expensive, 300..."
Ten thousand Ore Stones would be enough for a Zerg warrior to advance from the beginner stage to the lord stage; there are very few Zerg in the entire astral plane that can afford that.
"It's alright." The yew tree swayed its antennae indifferently. "If such a divine fruit really exists, I'll buy one and try it when I advance to the lord level in the future."
"Hmph," upon hearing Zishan's words, the two Zerg warriors immediately felt that its tone was a bit too arrogant.
Is it possible to advance to the Lord level at will? How many Zerg warriors spend their entire lives stuck at the advanced level? Reaching the Mountain Lord level is already their lifelong dream.
This guy is just a high-level warrior of the first age, yet he talks about advancing to the lord level as easily as eating and drinking. That's a bit too arrogant, unless he possesses—
The black-tailed tick warrior tentatively inquired, "Friend of the Two-Forked Rhinoceros Beetle tribe, do you possess a divinely bestowed seed?"
The yew tree did not deny it, and it pointed its antennae: "I have a male mulberry tree, a divine gift."
The two Zerg warriors shuddered. There really was a God-given Seed? And it was a Tree-type God-given Seed at that. No wonder this guy dared to say such arrogant things.
The two Zerg warriors sensed something was amiss and whispered, "A divinely bestowed male seed?"
Zishan calmly said, "Please don't get excited, it's just an ordinary divinely bestowed seed."
When you're out in the world, you give yourself your identity. It's not that it wants to show off by saying it has a divinely bestowed seed. It's just that in Zerg society, Zerg warriors who have divinely bestowed seeds are considered superior to other Zerg. This is a way of indirectly showing off its strength.
On the Thousand Star Islands, there are numerous Zerg warriors. The advanced Zerg warriors who can come here to participate in the coastal defense training either possess exceptional combat talent, or their tribes provide resources for them to evolve and grow. In the future, they can either join the coastal defense force or return to their own tribes to increase their tribe's combat strength.
Either their tribe or they themselves are wealthy, have consumed many different kinds of divinely bestowed primal energy foods, and have reached a first-class physical standard, giving them the confidence and strength to come and increase their combat power.
It could guess that among the thousands of Zerg warriors in this coastal defense training ground, the number of Zerg warriors with the God-given Seed must not be too small.
But there are differences between divinely bestowed seeds. How can herbaceous divinely bestowed seeds be compared with tree divinely bestowed seeds?
Moreover, it possesses a male divinely bestowed variety, which is quite special among the divinely bestowed varieties of trees. Anyone with a little knowledge would know the extraordinary nature of the male divinely bestowed variety.
Previously, Zishan had noticed that the Zerg warriors on the Thousand Star Islands seemed to have some prejudice against them, the Zerg from Banana Island. If they didn't show some strength, the Zerg would continue to look down on them.
Whether they look down on you or not doesn't really matter. On this Lotus Island, strength reigns supreme. As long as you have the strength, you can subdue them with a fight.
However, since my group of insects has just arrived, we don't know much about the situation here. The insects from the Thousand Star Islands must be very familiar with the situation here. We need to find out more information in order to thrive here.
Unlike the Zerg warriors who came last year and stayed here for more than half a year, it didn't know much about the general situation on the island or the Zerg lineage.
Thinking of this, it took out a spider silk bag hanging on its mid-legs, took out a few mulberries that had been pollinated by the male flowers, and handed them to the two insect warriors: "Try these mulberries that have reached the quality of a god. They are produced by pollinating the male flowers of my god-given mulberry tree with the pollen of an ordinary mulberry tree seed."
The quality isn't as high as the mulberry seeds directly from the divinely bestowed seed, but it's plentiful and cheap. I just advanced to the advanced stage, and these are only from the intermediate stage. Please have a taste."
"This friend is too kind." Their tribe is not small, so they naturally don't care about a few mulberries.
According to them, this is the product of pollination from the pollen of a divinely bestowed seed from a male mulberry tree, so they should have a taste of it.
It's not about gaining a small advantage, but about verifying the truthfulness of its words. If it truly is a Zerg warrior possessing a divinely bestowed seed from a male mulberry tree, then it's comparable to a Zerg warrior who has nurtured a top-tier divinely bestowed seed as its lifeblood—its future potential is limitless!
Two Zerg warriors picked up a few mulberries, put them in their mouths to taste, and silently felt the primal energy contained within them.
They realized that the quality of these mulberries was indeed at the level of divine gifts, but it was still inferior to that produced by wild divinely gifted seeds. Generally, divinely gifted seeds would not produce this level of primal food. It seemed that what this guy said was true.
Thinking of this, they immediately became enthusiastic and began to chat warmly with the yew trees.
Generally speaking, Zerg warriors who possess the Tree God-given Seed can basically advance to the Lord level, and Zerg warriors who possess the top-tier God-given Seed have no problem advancing to the Zerg King level; it's just a matter of how long it takes to advance.
For them, it's definitely a good idea to build a good relationship with a Zerg warrior who has the potential to become the Zerg King.
Moreover, they also know some characteristics of the fruits produced by pollinating the male plants of the God-given Seed. Although their quality is not as high as that of the fruits directly produced by the God-given Seed, they are more abundant and relatively cheaper.
The production of many divinely bestowed seeds is limited by their yield. If a good relationship can be established with the yew trees, and a batch of mulberries containing divine properties can be purchased every year, it would be a great achievement for the tribe.
Zishan also wanted to find out about the coastal defense training camp, and was happy to communicate with them. The two sides chatted happily for a long time, and Zishan learned a lot about the rules and relationships of the coastal defense training camp.
As they chatted, the line in front of them grew shorter and shorter until it was finally their turn.
The yews and the others entered the building one after another. Once inside, they saw seven or eight mountain lord-level warriors of the cabbage white butterfly tribe standing on both sides of the passageway. There were rooms on both sides of the passageway, and the mountain lord-level insectoid warriors were guiding the high-level warriors who had entered into these rooms.
Guided by the mountain-level cabbage white butterfly warrior, Zishan also entered one of the rooms. After entering the room, it saw a cabbage white butterfly king with a snow-white body, light blue stripes on its wings, and a wingspan of more than 4 meters.
The life-type primal energy around the Cabbage White Butterfly King vibrated. Upon seeing the Zishan enter, it didn't say a word. Its two antennae on its head closed together, and before the Zishan could react, a pure life-type primal energy struck its forehead.
Zishan was still completely bewildered and hadn't realized what was going on when Caifen Diedie Wang gave the order to leave: "Get out and let the next person in."
It has to cast spells on hundreds of Zerg warriors every day, so it doesn't have much time to chat with these high-ranking warriors.
After being kicked out of the room by the Cabbage White Butterfly King, Zishan was somewhat bewildered, and then quickly checked herself to see if there was anything different about her.
Then it sensed a strangely shaped life mark on its forehead. This mark was on its forehead, and it could feel the powerful life force contained within it.
Furthermore, it can sense that this mark is absorbing the traces of life energy emanating from its body and then storing it.
If it gets injured one day, the life energy stored in its life imprint will be released to heal its injuries.
At the same time, it also realized that this was not only a life-healing ability, but also had a reconnaissance function.
After acquiring this ability, it can keenly detect the location of Zerg warriors with life marks within a 200-meter radius, and it can also sense the strength of the life marks carried by these Zerg warriors, thus indirectly reflecting the vitality of these Zerg warriors.
In response, Zishan couldn't help but exclaim, "No wonder they say this ability is worth 300 million Originium Stones; it's definitely worth it!"
After receiving systematic instruction from the Lord of Zehui Mountain, it has become quite familiar with both its understanding of the world and various combat theories.
It understands perfectly well that this ability, at its advanced stage, can only detect teammates within a range of about 200 meters, which is nothing special.
The fact that Zerg warriors of the Mountain Lord level can sense the status and location of their teammates within a range of thousands of meters is of great importance.
Not to mention that above the Mountain Lord level, there are Lord-level warriors and Insect King-level warriors. It can be said that with this ability, they can set up a defense line without any loopholes in the defense zone.
If they could acquire such a divine fruit, even if it wasn't used on the coastal defense forces, it would be an extremely useful ability for the Rhinoceros Tortoise tribe to use to defend against sea beast warriors inside the islands once they migrated there.
However, their rhinoceros beetle tribe was not wealthy, so thinking about such things now was too far-fetched and unrealistic.
