Chapter 188 Level 2 genetic fruit

188  Level 2 genetic fruit

Eamonn also stared at Arnold, his face filled with an undisguised killing intent. From the aura emanating from the opponent and his previous actions, Eamonn immediately recognized Arnold's strength. However, he remained calm because he knew his own level was higher than Arnold's. At the same time, Arnold looked at Augustus, his brow slightly furrowed.

"Kid, if you want me to let her go, you have to prove your strength. Today, let me see what you're capable of!" Augustus said, clenching his fist, causing his knuckles to emit cracking sounds. In the next moment, he swiftly charged towards Arnold.

Seeing this, Arnold didn't dodge and instead directly extended his palm to meet Augustus's incoming fist head-on. However, Augustus's punch was incredibly powerful, and even the awakened werewolf ability of Arnold couldn't help him from instinctively taking two steps back.

"Very strong!" Arnold thought to himself, stabilizing his posture. He now truly assessed Augustus's strength, his face growing increasingly serious.

Augustus sneered and continued to charge towards Arnold. Witnessing Augustus's imposing momentum, Arnold activated his werewolf mode, roaring as he met him head-on.

Black blood coalesced around Augustus's body, as if under his control, transforming into various shapes and relentlessly attacking different parts of Arnold's body. Although Arnold managed to barely withstand each assault, the disparity in their power levels gradually made it more difficult for him.

Finally, Augustus seized an opportunity and directly pierced an arrow-shaped stream of blood into Arnold's arm. Arnold instantly felt the pain, leaping backward to create distance between them. Looking at the wound on his arm that was continuously bleeding, Arnold was somewhat surprised by the abilities and strength of the person before him. He didn't expect his opponent to be this strong and capable of manipulating blood for attacks. Both in terms of speed and power, Augustus surpassed him by far.

At this moment, Augustus toyed with a blob of blood in his hand, glancing at Arnold disdainfully. "You think you can be a hero with this level of strength? You don't even know how you'll die! Since you want to be a hero, I'll show you the price of being one!"

A cruel and violent aura erupted from Augustus's entire body as he prepared to deliver the final blow to Arnold. In his eyes, killing Arnold was as easy as squashing an ant, and the act of killing itself was an addictive pleasure!

"Augustus, let him go." Just as Augustus took his first step forward, Eamonn, who had been silent all along, spoke in a deep voice.

Hearing his boss's command, Augustus paused for a moment and asked in confusion, "boss, why keep this trash alive? He's useless."

Eamonn pondered for a moment and spoke again, "Until we find David, let's keep a low profile as much as possible. He is our ultimate enemy. Let him go, and let's hurry back."

Upon hearing Eamonn mention David's name, Arnold's heart skipped a beat. He scrutinized the two even more seriously. Hearing Eamonn's words, Augustus nodded and looked at Arnold, saying, "Kid, you're lucky today. My boss has spoken, so get lost!" With that, he turned around and got on the car, swiftly driving away.

Seeing the figures of the two leaving, Arnold hurried back to the base. From their conversation earlier, he understood that they had ill intentions towards David. Their ultimate goal was to kill David. Combined with their display of strength, Arnold felt that they could be a big problem for the Embers squad. He needed to inform David about this as soon as possible.

Soon, Arnold returned to the base and found David. Without even tending to his wounds, he quickly told David about what had happened.

"They're targeting me?" David said with a puzzled expression upon hearing Arnold's words.

Arnold nodded. "them strength is not low, and one of them can manipulate blood for attacks." David looked at the wound on Arnold's arm and nodded. He didn't understand why he had become the target of those two individuals, let alone this so-called "Murder God Gang."

When David heard the name of the faction, he found it amusing. So, these guys considered themselves killers, huh? Shaking his head with a smile, David instructed Arnold to quickly tend to his wounds. Although he was curious about this matter, he didn't dwell on it because that's how the post-apocalyptic world was. Deception and treachery were rampant, and people desired to possess everything around them. No one wanted to see others become stronger. If they did, would have to eliminate them.

Sally, who had heard Arnold's words, came downstairs. "Who are these people, after all?"

David looked at Sally and smiled faintly. "They're just survivors in this post-apocalyptic world. Don't worry, we haven't encountered any opponents that pose a threat to our Embers squad yet." As he spoke, he reached out and ruffled Sally's hair, evoking a sense of inexplicable security within her.

David then went back to the greenhouse on the second floor. Looking at the genetically modified fruits and various vegetables, he decided to modify them once again. The effects of the genetically modified fruits were particularly pronounced for the members of the squad.

However, the effects were minimal for David, as he was already a Level 10 esper. The genetic fruits were only in their early stages, so their effects couldn't be fully manifested in him.

David called out to the system, "System, upgrade the genetic fruits."

[Ding! Host's request to upgrade the genetic fruits detected. It requires 100 primary crystals as the cost. Please confirm, Host.]

This was why David wanted to upgrade the genetic fruits. Unlike upgrading other objects, the upgrade for the genetic fruits only required primary crystals. And David had accumulated a considerable amount of primary crystals.

"Confirm the upgrade!" David decisively replied.

[Ding! The genetic fruits are upgrading! ]

[Ding! Upgrade complete! ]

[The genetic fruits have been upgraded to Level 2, doubling their functionality! ]

Listening to the system's voice, David looked at the fruits that had completed the upgrade. Their size had suddenly doubled compared to before, and even the emanating aura felt more substantial.

David picked one of the fruits, washed it with liquid, and took a bite. The taste was still crisp and delicious, just like before the upgrade, but once it entered his body, he felt a stronger surge of warmth.

David felt the power coursing through him and nodded in satisfaction. Although the genetic fruits could only enhance his physical and mental strength, they were still an excellent choice for daily energy supplementation. This ensured that the members of the squad would maintain their vitality during battles. David then picked the ripe genetic fruits and distributed them to the others.
