Chapter 209 The Trap of the “Mother Tree of Desire”
"What are the side effects?"
Carol immediately wanted to ask directly, but she also knew that she would not make that guy feel friendly... Just when she was about to throw an idea to Gray Lint, she heard that he had already asked this question.
Paro said with a rather obscene "hehe" smile:
"It's nothing. It's just that the 'growth factors' that promote the production of these tea leaves will have some residue. If you drink too much, it will affect the human reproductive system, making their physiological desires more frequent and their activities more exciting than usual."
Alternative version of aphrodisiac drugs?
Grayling nodded and did not delve into the issue further.
This kind of negative effect is not too immoral, and considering that you need to drink this kind of tea regularly to have the effect, it is not too unreasonable. Of course, in any case, it is a shoddy product, coupled with the sale of food with negative effects
, this guy is not a good guy after all, but you don’t need to deal with him yourself.
Moreover, maybe some customers buy it just for this effect?
This is easier to accept than mummy powder, although the effect is certainly not as obvious, it is just as powerful.
…………
Ignoring the tea leaves, Gray Lint confirmed the effect of the "charm" of the high position, no longer hesitated, and asked directly:
"Store manager James, since you are not good at this, then our business will not be successful. Making money is a good thing, but I don't want to destroy my own sign... But, I do have another business with you.
Do."
Paro patted his chest with his short, thick palm and said "righteously";
"If you have any business, just say it. As long as I can make up my mind, I won't let you suffer."
"Oh? Really?"
Gray Linte asked in response, pretending to be surprised, and then went straight to the point:
"Well, I'm looking for someone named Shatila. I wonder if you know her, store manager?"
Paro was stunned for a moment, and then hesitated a little. There was a brief conflict between "loyalty" and "the closest friendship", but it goes without saying what the outcome of this conflict was:
"I know, little brother, are you looking for her? Do you need me to take you there?"
…
Gray Lint was secretly stunned. This kind of psychic influence was too outrageous and too difficult to guard against, especially when the other party might be an extraordinary person of a high level... This meant that if he encountered a similar extraordinary ability, the result would not be the same.
Much better than him, unless he jumps to the highest level and forcibly washes away all psychological implications.
"Okay, I'll trouble you then."
After being informed by Carol that "there were no unusual thoughts", Gray Lint confirmed that this was the effect of the extraordinary ability and not a trap, so he decisively agreed and then asked casually:
"Does she happen to be in Kuwa City too?"
"Yes, that's right, she just returned to Kuwa last night. Come on, little brother, I will take you there."
With that said, he got up and was about to go out.
Such a coincidence?
Gray Linte and Carol looked at each other, nodded slightly, and followed suit.
…………
Things went much smoother than Grelint imagined. Within two minutes, Paro James led the two of them to a Gothic clock tower, where there was a not too big mansion.
This should be Shatila or someone's private residence, and there are no guards.
Paro was quite familiar with the housekeeper here. She was a housekeeper. After a few simple conversations, the housekeeper smiled apologetically and left the living room, while Paro turned back and smiled at Gray Linte.
He said:
"That lady...well, she has a more open personality, and she went on a mission for a long time this time...so she couldn't help but play a little late when she came back."
It's already halfway through the morning.
Gray Linte frowned and nodded without commenting.
A few minutes later, he finally met the owner of the trip:
She was a short lady with black hair and black eyes - she was at least half a head shorter than Carol. Her nose was bulging and round, and her lips were thicker and sexy... She had a healthy wheat complexion, although her limbs were
It's not quite strong, but it has a strong sense of strength.
She had probably just gotten up. Not only was her hair messy, but her clothes were also not neat and tidy. A large area of white greasy hair was exposed below her neck, and she exuded a lazy and charming charm.
When Gray Lint looked at her, she was also looking at the two of Gray Lint.
A gentleman from Loen, Intis and Loen have different appearance characteristics... A lady from Intis...
After sending away the servant, Shatila looked at Paro and asked straight to the point:
"When did you have two friends like this?"
"when?"
Parro James looked at Gray Lint blankly, and replied in a whisper:
"This morning."
This morning!
Shatila's pupils suddenly shrunk, and she took half a step back. All the muscles in her body tensed instantly. She turned her head and stared at Gray Linte. Her temperament suddenly became sharp and cold, like a female leopard preparing to attack:
"Who are you?"
She thought he was really Paro's friend just now. After all, he looked normal and didn't seem to be being coerced.
Graylint instinctively didn't want too many people to know about this kind of transaction, so he grinned and said:
"Relax, relax, please don't be anxious, I'm just here to make a deal with you... Well, before that, Store Manager James, you don't need to work hard here anymore, haha, you can go outside and have a rest first.
"
"Okay, little brother, you can talk slowly, I'll leave first."
As expected, he was very cooperative and even felt that Gray Linte, this "friend" was really considerate and worthy of close friendship.
Shatila did not stop Gray Lint's move. Paro's mental state was obviously not right, and staying here was really harmful to her. However, while Gray Lint persuaded Paro James to leave, she was also observing carefully.
I vaguely noticed that his state was a bit familiar... so I tentatively asked:
"Charm?"
Seeing Paro leave the room, leaving only her and two people with unknown purposes, she asked in shock and doubt.
She is also a "Corrupted Baron" and is very familiar with the four "bribes" of Sequence 7. Gray Linte nodded with an unchanged smile, and explained "kindly":
"The 'charm' amplified by high status."
This was not only to lower her alertness, but also to make the trading chips she proposed later more credible.
Shatila was thoughtful, and her attitude actually improved a little:
"What's the deal you're talking about?"
The smile in Gray Linte's eyes grew stronger, and he spoke calmly:
"I heard that you have a potion material for the 'Chaos Master'."
He is not afraid of directly exposing his target, which will cause her to be more vigilant or maliciously raise the price - because he is confident that he can completely control her, and her desire for the medication ritual is definitely greater than his desire for this material. In the current situation,
In the era, if she wanted to obtain the corresponding medicine-taking ritual, other than assassinating the high-level psychics of Loen's military, she probably had no other choice but to make a deal with Nast, the "King of the Five Seas".
After hearing this, Shatila of course knew his purpose.
She was silent for more than ten seconds, finally believing that Gray Lint was here to make a deal and not because of her military status, so she relaxed some of her tense muscles and said expressionlessly:
"Since you can find out that the material is in my hands, you should know its importance to me. Why do you think I will be willing to trade with you?"
After hearing her words, Gray Linte paused deliberately, wanting to wait and see if Carol would give out the superficial thoughts that emerged in Shatila's mind. However, unfortunately, she did not send any information. It seemed that
It should be that the mind reading was not successful.
"I can bring out what you need most right now."
He suppressed his smile and spoke confidently.
Shatila stared at him for two seconds, but she didn't see any guilt, and her eyes didn't dodge, so she looked away, tapped her fingers on the table, and fell into deep thought... Of course, Gray Linte could understand her dilemma,
On the one hand, it is a complete set of materials that are very valuable and difficult to prepare. On the other hand, it is a medicine-taking ceremony that usually has no clues and is very difficult to find opportunities.
Seeing that she was obviously weighing the pros and cons in her mind, he immediately added "persuasion" and said:
"Believe me, you can get the complete 'Chaos Tutor' formula from me only by assassinating the top brass of the Loen military, or by finding Nast, the 'King of the Five Seas'... Apart from that, you can only get the complete 'Chaos Mentor' formula from me.
The major churches may have corresponding information, but I’m not sure yet.”
"And this doesn't just mean a recipe. If you get it, you will definitely be able to cultivate more than one Sequence 5."
Shatila glared at him coquettishly, her whole body becoming even more charming.
"Yes, you are right."
"But that's from a high-level perspective. For me personally, the formula you gave is far more valuable than a complete set of materials."
This logic is not valid. As long as she submits the formula, she can definitely apply for another material for the contribution she received.
Not to mention a veteran in the system like Gray Lint, even Carol knows this very well.
She was a little dissatisfied with Shatila's coquettish attitude, so she curled her lips and muttered:
"Don't you just want to take advantage of the opportunity to raise the price?"
There were only three people in the room, and Gray Linte and Shatila had not spoken for a while. No matter how quiet she muttered, the other two could still hear her clearly.
Shatila glanced at her, then at Gray Linte, without any embarrassment, and said with a half-smile:
"That's right, I just want to raise the price, what? Isn't it possible?"
Then, in front of Carol, she winked at Graylingt with an affectionate look on her face, half happy but not happy. At the same time, she stretched out her sweet tongue and licked her lips, and said coquettishly:
"The price I want to raise is, how about you come and stay with me for one night?"
"After all, you came early in the morning to disturb my good things! You should compensate me, right?"
As she spoke, she pulled up her untidy clothes, directly revealing her attractive shoulders.
Carol was furious. She had never seen such a despicable person before. She was about to scold her for being shameless... But Gray Linte frowned instantly, his eyes suddenly sank, and he grabbed her without caring about politeness.
Carol stood up suddenly and took a big step back, then calmly said to her:
"There's something wrong with this woman."
"Keke... What's wrong with me? Isn't it something wrong with what you are thinking in your heart?"
In these few seconds, Shatila has been approaching step by step. Her dress is unable to untie itself and slips off inch by inch without any effort...
Gray Linte didn't remind her, but Carol wasn't that sharp and didn't notice anything at all.
But if he reminds her, and at the same time this woman becomes more and more crazy and unbridled, and she still can't see anything, then she is not worthy of being called an extraordinary person!
"What's going on? I feel like she looks like this... very crazy and evil!"
She immediately came up with an idea and asked from the bottom of Grelint's heart.
Carol didn't know, and Gray Linte certainly couldn't understand it, but Shatila's very wild and flamboyant attitude made him have some guesses, so he spit out a string of words:
"Maybe it was influenced by the evil god."
It is most likely the influence of the "Mother Tree of Desire".
Evil God!
Carol was suddenly startled and couldn't help but asked directly:
"Then what should we do with this woman? Can we kill her?"
The evil gods interfere with reality in different ways, but most of them require some kind of support and some kind of medium.
Gray Lint didn't answer for a moment.
Shatila seemed to have lost her mind and the ability to think and speak independently. Her face was flushed, and her eyes became blurred. She walked towards Gray Lint completely unprepared, and the gauze on her body
The dress has completely slipped off...
"Bang, bang, bang"
In the endless spring light, several untimely gunshots suddenly rang out.
It was Carol. She really couldn't bear the irritating feeling that made people's skin crawl. She directly pulled out the pistol from Gray Linte's waist and fired randomly based on instinct, splashing two flowers on the human body in front of her.
Blood Flower, knocking it to the ground... Then she gasped heavily - she had never practiced shooting, and her physical fitness was very average. Just a few shots made her feel uncomfortable, plus that
The mental pressure that the evil aura brought to her was really quite big.
Gray Lint reacted when she drew her gun, but he did not stop her. When you are at a loss what to do, waiting and watching is also an option.
"Just...dead?"
His frown did not loosen at all, and he said to Carol calmly:
"Let's get out of here first."
As he said that, he half pulled and half supported Carol, and was about to turn his wrist and teleport away directly... But immediately, a series of creepy laughter rang out:
"Cluck...cluck..."
It comes from the woman who got knocked down!
This laughter seemed to have some kind of magic power, and it was so exciting that Gray Linte couldn't control it. He shook his right hand slightly, interrupting the transmission.
Accompanied by this laughter, Shatila suddenly stood upright in a posture that violated the laws of physics, and scattered several pieces of materials with her... the tumor-shaped fleshy crown of Maska's cunning ape, and the corresponding heart... and
Some other auxiliary materials.
Gray Lint could see clearly that that was exactly the "Chaos Tutor" material he needed!
Then her body expanded rapidly, and her bones stretched at the same time, becoming three or four meters tall, almost reaching the ceiling... At the position of her feet, the flesh and blood suddenly softened, and merged into the solid ground like water meeting sand.
, seems to have become her root system to draw nutrients from the earth.
At the same time, part of its root system drilled out of the ground and penetrated the two main materials of the "Chaos Tutor".
Her arms, ears, chest, nose, hair...all the protruding parts on her body all expanded and grew longer, becoming branches that spread out, covered with large and small brown-green sarcomas, like a
The flower buds...the trunk is similar, with wet mouthparts that open and close and salivate everywhere. They come from various animals in nature...cats, dogs, cows and horses, insects and birds, snakes, rats and cockroaches, everything is included.
No.
Within a few minutes, the original Shatila turned into a tree-shaped monster!
"Giggle...giggle..."
Her weird and inexplicable laughter never stopped from beginning to end.
What hasn't changed is her alluring face and the smooth and tender skin on her torso... This gives people an unparalleled impact, as if to tell you that she is still the same person!
Then, it suddenly stopped its weird smile.
Then, all the branches and seaweeds began to dance, and the "buds" on them seemed to have absorbed some nutrients, and they "bloomed" like flowers, spreading out wisps of orange, red, pink, brown and green... smoke of various colors.
, they each formed an army, spreading towards Gray Linte one by one.
At the same time, the saliva dripping from the various mouthparts also emitted a misty fragrance, slowly coming over, but they were extremely hidden!
Carol's eyes widened, and she raised her delicate hands to "steal" the various colors of smoke that came towards her.
Gray Lint was startled, not knowing whether she was using her extraordinary ability or the "Chain of Parasites", so he quickly pulled her behind him and explained quickly:
"Those things can't touch them. If you want to deal with them, it's best to use magical items!"
If she takes it by herself, she is likely to get infected.
As he spoke, he "distorted" the direction of the smoke, causing it to spread to the right. He led Carol towards the door on the left... After walking several steps, he was shocked.
Suddenly, I realized that I was going in the wrong direction. I was approaching the "tree" in the middle of the house with Carol, and I was about to hit it directly soon!
The direction of his movement was "confused"!
This monster actually directly absorbed the characteristics of "Chaos Tutor" and can use its abilities smoothly.
At the critical moment, the distance between the two of them and the door suddenly disappeared and moved between the two of them and the tree-like monster.
"Giggle...giggle..."
The scalp-numbing smile kept echoing again.
Carol originally wanted to follow the same pattern, steal distance repeatedly, and take Gray Lint away directly, but when she heard the weird laughter, she couldn't help but tremble with her bare hands, and was interrupted from performing the spell again!
"Huh?"
However, Gray Linte noticed that when the weird smile sounded, the smoke of various colors that spread out suddenly paused for a moment.
He thought quickly, no longer escaping, and made the decision to kill the monster directly.
"Help me deal with the smoke."
He turned his head and looked at Carol, and she happened to look over as well. Their eyes met, and Gray Linte gave direct and concise instructions.
"good!"
Carol didn't waste any words, she agreed neatly, and took away the smoke that came over like a tide piece by piece.
Gray Linte, on the other hand, took Carol and took the initiative to get closer to the tree-like monster. Two illusory book shadows that were constantly turning appeared in his eyes, accompanied by a misty and distant chant:
"I come, I see, I record."
Then he stretched his right hand forward and suddenly held it empty, like an invisible big hand, tightly squeezing the flamboyant monster, so that every branch of it could not move, and its mouth was not allowed to make a sound, so it had to be captured without restraint.
When the forceful control started, Gray Linte still felt unsteady, and the book shadow in his eyes continued to flip. He pulled back first and took away its newly acquired extraordinary ability "Chaos".
After making preparations so that it could no longer interfere with him, Gray Linte looked at Carol's side again and confirmed that her side was going very well and there would be no problems.
Then he leaned his upper body back slightly and opened his arms, as if embracing the sun, summoning round after round of magnificent, pure and blazing light beams - five rounds of light beams. They fell from the sky in no particular order and irradiated at the same time.
The tree-like monster seems to be trying to cleanse away all filth and purify all uncleanness...
The holy light washed the ground and shone for more than ten seconds before finally dissipating.
The tree-like monster was scorched black all over, and large branches all over its body were completely carbonized and could no longer emit smoke.
But it is extremely tenacious and has not completely died yet.
Gray Linte's eyes narrowed, seizing the ten seconds it was unable to fight back, connecting his consciousness to the black sun in the bright yellow world, and shooting out a jet-black beam from the infinite distance of the dark place.
This is of course not "entropy increase", it is just a method for him to use his angelic personality to crush the sealed objects and restore them to extraordinary characteristics.
——He wants to treat this temporarily immobile monster as a sealed object, smash it directly, erase its spiritual imprint, restore it to its purest extraordinary characteristics, and kill it from a relatively alternative angle.
…
At this moment, a strange fragrance slowly floated over and hit the nostrils of Gray Linte and Carol in no particular order...
