The appearance of another new side quest meant that the dungeons rewards would reach the next level. This should originally be a very happy thing.

However, there was something called the gap between expectations and reality.

Originally, Gu Nan was anticipating finishing the main mission in one fell swoop, but he didn't expect that the creature that finally emerged after eating the fruit wasnt actually his assassination target.

However, one of the characteristics of a top player was that their mentality would never collapse. No matter how many traps the game has, if he steps on them all, there will always be a day when he clears the game.

Gu Nan quickly calmed down and carefully studied the "monster" in front of him.

The power of the bizarre giant trees fruit and 100,000 moon thralls were all concentrated into one body

The final result was the winner in front of Gu Nan, whose body was twisting and changing crazily. Sometimes it became human, and sometimes it twisted in weird angles.

The monsters shape even became flat for a while, then expanded rapidly.

Powerful energy fluctuations emanated from it, so terrifying that no surrounding creature dared to approach. Only Gu Nan observed it silently from beginning to end.

Gu Nan knew that just the fruit alone might not achieve this effect. The intense effect was also due to the enormous number of moon thralls gathered here.

Nearly half an hour later, the huge moon thrall finally gradually stopped morphing, and its figure also stopped at a height of nearly five meters.

Although it wasnt as exaggerated as its rapidly expanding body during the transformation, it was still much taller than ordinary moon thralls, which made it extremely conspicuous.

Its appearance was also very different from before. It was no longer the almost humanoid appearance that moon thralls had, and there were no obvious animalistic features either. The strange thing was that it had some new additions.

Two arms and a pair of wings.

The Evil God Temple had labeled this fellow as the moon thralls king. Not only did it grow new arms underneath its ribs, but it also grew a pair of fleshy wings behind it, which looked majestic.

But from Gu Nan's point of view, the new creature wasnt actually that strong. Rather, it seemed like it had barely reached Tier 2, which was equal to the current strongest moon thralls.

The fruit didnt seem to have given him strength, but more like evolution.

Gu Nan picked another fruit, threw it in front of him, and asked with a smile, "Still want to eat?"

The king of the moon thralls looked at the fruit in confusion, sniffed it twice with his nose, then shook his head and set aside the fruit. Instead, he smiled at Gu Nan fawningly.

Although his smile was slightly ugly, it was enough to make Gu Nan deeply moved.

He actually has intelligence?

Does killing him count as completing the mission? Gu Nan's mind immediately came up with this idea, and his gaze suddenly turned dangerous, which scared the moon thralls king into shrinking away.

But Gu Nan immediately rejected the idea. First, this big fellow was the "king of the moon thralls" certified by the Evil God Temple, and second, it didnt meet Tian Yuan's definition of the moon thralls child.

A human who still retains their intelligence throughout the entire infection process would be the moon thralls child.

Gu Nan picked up the fallen fruit from the ground and took the rest of the fruits from the giant treea total of five or six fruitsthen left with the moon thralls king.

This big guy seemed happy to follow Gu Nan.

"For the time being, Ill call you No.1 Forget it, let's call you Big Brother[1]," Gu Nan looked at the six fruits in his hand and said.

Inside Lin Duo's home in the Star & Moon Camp.

Lin Ke was sitting in front of the tea table at home with black tea in her hand, but she couldnt drink it. In contrast, the man sitting across from her looked much calmer.

Just as Lin Ke's irritability became more and more obvious and the man opened his mouth to speak, the screen in front of them suddenly lit up, then dimmed.

The two perked up at the same time and hurriedly checked.

This was the last photo sent back by the person who went to explore the labthe technology of Morningstar Plane hadnt developed to the point of being able to broadcast live footage yet.

Two photos were quickly developed. The first one was actually pitch-black, bewildering them.

"How can it be all black? Unless hes already entered the lab, and theres a completely dark environment?" The man frowned and analyzed.

Lin Ke didn't speak but silently agreed with him. It was only when they saw the second picture that they gasped.

The perspective of the second photo was very strange. It seemed to be taken with the camera on the ground. At the front of the picture was a pair of legs that were still standing.

These were that explorers legs; the two were very sure of that.

And the camera was on the explorers forehead, which meant his head had been cut off!

This detail made both of them feel chills at the same time, and the background of the second photo was even more alarming.

There were countless large cultivation tubes, some of which were empty, while others were still in operation. And placed inside them were precisely moon thralls!

"To think hes actually raising moon thralls in the middle of the camp This Gu Zhaoyue really is bold!" The man couldn't help but grunt, but his voice was somewhat proud.

This alone was enough to instantly plunge the Star & Moon Camp into chaos. Furthermore, he might even be able to use this photo to negotiate with Gu Zhaoyue and turn him into one of the organizations people!

Lin Ke was equally shocked by this, but she quickly frowned again. "Something seems off Why is there no enemy in front of him?"

"Maybe it was a sneak attack from behind. What's so strange about that?" The man said dismissively.

In front of the explorers legs in the photo, only the explorers shadow was slowly stretching out, but there was no trace of the enemy. However, this wasnt impossible to explain.

"Thats not quite right. After being beheaded, the head falls behind him, indicating that the enemy should be in front of him could it be an invisibility-type ability?"

Lin Ke was still frowning, but before she could say anything else, a burst of footsteps sounded, and the figure of the man suddenly disappeared.

"I'm back" Lin Duo's listless voice spoke as she slowly pushed the door open and entered.

Lin Ke acted like nothing had happened, casually putting away the two photos and coming over with a surprised look. "Why did you return so soon? I thought you guys were going to spend the night at that meeting place."

Wah! Lin Duo threw herself into her sister's arms, almost crying out loud. She was full of grievances and didn't know where to start talking.

The return journey was far faster than the journey thereafter all, it was a desperate rush to run away, so none of them had the energy to pay attention to dangers in their surroundings.

With the help of the sun and moon spirits, Lin Duo had no difficulty running back to the camp. It's just that a very difficult adventure actually ended like this; it really made the girl full of helplessness.

Lin Ke comforted her, "I'll heat up dinner. Eat first, and we can talk slowly after eating."

Lin Duo just whimpered and nodded, while Lin Ke went to the kitchen.

Moments later, she picked up the food and turned around, only to find her vision go dark for a secondLin Duo was standing right behind her.

"What are you doing?! You scared me" Lin Ke rolled her eyes and placed a hand on her chest.

"I just want to see what yummy food were eating!" Lin Duo's mood seemed to have recovered, and a smile appeared on her face.

Lin Ke said helplessly, "Don't stick so close to me next time Oh"

Lin Ke seemed to understand something. Her left hand jerked involuntarily, causing the porcelain bowl to suddenly fall to the ground and shatter.

"That first photo No wonder there was no one in front of him!"
