It was not rare for the tad beasts to consu the other beings; however, in their view, the fire vine truly ate a little too much.
But still, they felt it was better; otherwise, the citizens have to clean the bodies after the last invasion of the bug warriors.
Moreover, after consuming so many dead bodies of the bug warriors, they felt Henrick's tad beast beco a little more powerful so that Henrick could kill even more bug warriors in the next invasion.
'Let's go; our shift is over.'
Soon, one of the soldiers said to the other one before jumping off from the city wall.
Since this is a crucial ti, each soldier wanted to increase their strength by absorbing the energy from the bug core.
So, the durations for the shifts to watch out for the bug warriors were very small.
....
'Ding,
Master, the mysterious fruit is ripe. Please pick it.
As for Henrick, he was excitedly waiting for the red-coloured fruits, and when he heard the system notification, he hurriedly plucked it from the fire vine.
'Ding,
Item na:- Mysterious fruit (Red coloured fruit).
Effect:- Realm breaker.
Effect explanation:- When soone consus the fruit, their cultivation will be temporarily increased by one full realm for five minutes.
Note:- Effective on the cultivators below master realm and the maximum temporary cultivation increased will be level 1 master realm.
'What?'
After seeing the red-colored fruit's information, he was shocked for a mont before laughing out loud.
'Finally, a good fruit.'
Compared to the previous blue-coloured fruits, the red-coloured fruits are way better than them.
As long as he consud these fruits, he could beco a level 1 master realm.
So, he doesn't need to worry about escaping from the last invasion of the bug warriors.
'However, I will only use them when it is of utmost requirent.'
In the future, Henrick has to complete many more trials and have to et other participants of the other inheritance buildings.
Soon, he silently stored the two red-coloured fruits in his inventory and stretched his body a little before going back to his room.
Since there is no sign of any bug warrior as far as his eye could see, Henrick felt it would take so more ti for them to appear.
'Since I have access to unlimited amounts of pure fire energy, why don't I hatch the immortal beast egg.'
While going back to his room, Henrick suddenly thought of the immortal beast egg in his inventory.
'Also, the fire vine's length increased by another five ters and reached 25 ters.'
Next, he thought about the fire vine, which was growing at an incredible speed.
'I will let it consu different types of beings, and let's see what type of fruit it will give.'
With the help of the 'Mysterious fruit' skill, the fire vine was not only increasing its size, but even its battle prowess was increasing.
So, he felt he needed to get more bodies of various races. So, both the fire vine and Henrick could be benefitted.
"I will let it participate in the next invasion. It will take care of hundreds of bug warriors with its size and flexibility."
Henrick was so excited for the subsequent invasion because he would not only get the last few thousand crude souls to buy his hand, but he would also gain reputation points.
Soon, he reached his guest room, and along the way, he was greeted by many soldiers, which shocked the rcenaries.
In their eyes, Henrick was a single-ard young man. So, why did the soldiers greatly respect him?
Even they had to work hard for many years before getting so respect from the soldiers; however, the single-ard young man was getting even more respect than them.
So, they felt sothing was wrong.
Moreover, a few soldiers addressed Henrick as Commander.
'How can he beco the commander?'
'What exactly happened while we were on the expedition.'
'He is young and only has a single arm; why did Master Valen make him the commander?'
Various questions flashed in the heads of the rcenaries, and Grace looked at Henrick with a frown.
"Don't be surprised. He is the tenth commander who Master Valen recently announced after seeing his battle prowess."
A soldier who noticed the shocked and surprised looks on the rcenaries' faces couldn't help but reveal a slight smile.
"Do you know how many bug warriors he killed?"
Soon, another soldier opened his eyes from his cultivation and asked with a smile on his face.
"He killed nearly 1000 bug warriors in the first wave of the invasion where there were 10000 bug warriors present."
"In the second wave of invasion, he killed nearly 10000 bug warriors. So, what do you think?"
"So, don't look at commander Henrick with pity. He is very strong for his age."
Before the rcenaries could answer, a few more soldiers started explaining Henrick's achievent in the recent battles.
'What? He killed 10000 bug warriors.'
"But he is so young."
"Also, he only has a single hand."
All rcenaries rembered their earlier actions where they looked at Henrick with pity; however, they didn't expect he had such battle prowess.
Actually, it was not their fault because Henrick hid his cultivation with the help of his level 3 'Camouflage' skill. So, they were able to sense Henrick's cultivation.
Adding to the fact, he only has a single-arm, they thought Henrick was just so random young man in the city who wanted to help them collect the bug cores.
'He contributed so much to the city. If I can help him regenerate his hand, it will increase his battle prowess.'
While all the rcenaries were bitterly shaking their heads, Grace silently muttered to herself and continued to think, 'But the problem is I just awakened the skill and didn't have enough confidence.'
Since Grace's affinity elent was Wood, her awakened skills were related to healing, and that is why she was recruited into the rcenaries at such a young age.
'What should I do? Should I wait? No, if he gets his hand back, then he can kill even more bug warriors in the next invasion.'
Grace fell into a dilemma and started thinking about the pros and cons.
'It's decided then. I will go and explain to him about my skill. If he is willing to let use my skill on him then, I will use it.'
Finally, Grace decided to ask Henrick.
...
In the guest room.
'Let's see whether it can hatch today or not?'
As soon as he entered the guest room, Henrick closed the door before taking out the immortal beast egg and placed it on the ground.
Without wasting any ti, he made a small cut on his hand and started dropping his blood on the egg.
This ti, he was careful as he added the pure internal fire energy along with his blood. So, the egg could consu less blood.
The egg shook a little as though it was excited for the food it was getting. The food was, of course, blood mixed with his pure internal fire energy.
Henrick didn't stop as he continued to send the so-called food to the egg.
Whenever his dantian was becoming empty, he would use his special storage gourd.
Even if it was emptied, then he would use the energy from the bug cores to fill his dantian and the gourd before continuing to supply the blood to it.
'Knock knock'
After a few minutes, Henrich heard the knocking sound on his door, and without hesitation, he stored the egg away and went to open the door.
"Hello, Henrick."
It was none other than Grace who wanted to help Henrick to regenerate his hand.
"Hi, Grace."
With a surprised look on his face, Henrick greeted her back.
"I have sothing to talk about with you. Can I co in?"
Grace didn't waste ti because the bug warriors can attack the city anyti. So, she directly ca to the point, "It is related to your right hand."
'Huh?'
Henrick raised his brows when he heard Grace's last sentence, but still, he allowed her to enter his room.
"What is it?"
Henrick wanted to hatch the immortal beast egg. So, he also wanted to finish what Grace wanted to talk about his right hand.
"Recently, I broke through to the energy transformation realm and awakened 'Limb re-generation skill. So, I thought of using it on your right hand."
Looking at Henrick's expression, Grace talked to Henrick about her skill.
"What?"
All of a sudden, Henrick stood up and looked at Grace with an exciting look.
"Yes."
Grace nodded her head as she continued, "However, there is so risk involved in my skill."
"There is only a 50 percent chance of re-generating your arm, and if the skill fails, you might get injured. However, compared to the benefits, taking this small amount of risk is worth it."
Soon, Grace started saying about the risk involved in her skill.
"50 percent of risk?"
Henrick's excitent disappeared into thin air when he heard the last words because he thought, 'Is it really worth taking the risk?'
'Of course not.'
In Henrick's view, the risk is not worth it. Since he could buy the re-generating dicine from the soul store after killing a few more bug warriors, why would he want to take the risk?
"What do you say?"
Judging by Henrick's sudden reaction, Grace was almost sure that Henrick didn't want to take the risk for his right arm.
But still, she wanted an answer from Henrick.
"Sorry. I don't want to take the risk."
As she expected, Henrick shook his head; however, his next words shocked Grace, and at the sa ti, she was excited.
