Hunter: Mind Capacity Starting From Devil Fruit

Chapter 27 Burning Fruit



oh?

Seeing Huang Quan's calm expression, he showed a hint of surprise.

For some reason, Chrollo suddenly felt a sense of satisfaction, and then continued:

"It is said that it is also a life-long fighting weapon for the tribesmen. The broken position is the place where the weapon is placed..."

“It is recorded in the book [Travel Notes of Marcos Huerta] that whenever the Huerta tribe comes of age, they will enter the interior of the volcano in search of a fruit tree called [Grey Chocolate Burning Fruit]…”

"When this [Grey Chocolate Burning Fruit] matures, its volume is between one meter and one-and-a-half meters. After years of magma absorption, the fruit inside will gradually melt into gray natural chocolate..."

"And the gray core, which has never melted but is getting stronger and stronger, is one of the top materials for making shields..."

"And the older the [Burning Fruit] is, the larger and stronger the core will be..."

"etc…"

Huang Quan said in surprise: "Are you saying that this is the fruit core of chocolate, or is it natural?"

"That's right."

After giving a strange look, Chrollo said: "This natural top-grade gray chocolate, because of its unique taste and rich nutrition, has probably been included in the ranks of priceless luxury goods. In terms of the difficulty level of capture, at least it is [C+ level] level..."

"..."

Hearing this, Huang Quan smiled slightly.

He didn't know why, but when he heard the topic of food, he suddenly remembered the "Prisoners of Food" he had seen before.

The various natural delicacies that appear in that world can be called a holy place for all foodies.

And Hunter's world...

Recall the food test the protagonist group encountered when they participated in the Hunter test.

Perhaps, there are countless delicacies in this world that he did not expect...

"interesting…"

Thinking of this, Huang Quan's eyes brightened, and he looked at Chrollo, who was still staring at the shield and studying it.

"What's the value?"

"Value...it turns out that this is what you want to ask..."

Chrollo glanced sideways at Machi in the room, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he looked at the lines on the shield and said:

"The Virta clan has disappeared for more than four hundred years, and there are not many protective shields left behind. It can be regarded as a [precious] antique treasure..."

"It's just that after all, nearly half of the shield was broken and the matching weapon parts were missing. In the eyes of collectors, this often means that it has depreciated in value. If I were to give an estimate..."

"The market price is between 4 million and 6 million. If you include the long vintage, it will eventually be sold for around 6.5 million yuan..."

"Of course, the premise is that you can take it to the world-famous Youkesin City. Only there will gather all kinds of collectors..."

Distant water cannot save nearby fire...

Realizing this, Huang Quan, who wanted to improve Machi and his own quality of life, saw Chrollo's slightly raised lips and instantly understood what the other person wanted to express:

"Tell me..."

Dispelling the sense of urgency in his heart, Huang Quan said calmly: "If you have any requests, please make them first..."

"From your smile, many meanings have been revealed..."

"It is indeed a pleasure to deal with intelligent people..."

Chrollo looked up at the dark sky, smiled slightly and said: "I can introduce you to a buyer who knows the goods in Meteor Street. Although there is no guarantee that the buyer will definitely buy it, that guy will definitely be interested..."

"It's just that, correspondingly... I also have a small request. I wonder if you can agree to it?"

"explain!"

"It's easy!" Chrollo smiled: "Join us spiders..."

"No need to discuss..."

Waving his hand, Huang Quan pointed at Machi, who had been observing this side of the room, and gestured: "I promised Sister Machi that I would not join the spiders without her consent..."

"If you want me to join, you have to convince her first..."

"It's very simple..."

Chrollo turned around and looked inside the room, then looked at Huang Quan, and suddenly smiled: "Just dismiss the spiders..."

Um?

Hearing this, Huang Quan's pupils narrowed.

"What's the meaning?"

"Do you know why we formed Spiders?"

Without a direct answer, Chrollo asked another topic.

Why?

Huang Quan, who didn't know much about this, couldn't help but shook his head.

"It's just a matter of hugging each other for warmth..."

"Yes and no..."

Chrollo calmed down and said, "Do you remember Xiao Fei?"

"Xiao Fei?"

Hearing this name, a vague figure of a girl instantly appeared in Huang Quan's mind.

"Maybe you have forgotten..."

Chrollo said calmly: "Because of her disappearance, we, who were originally unrelated, formed spiders to help each other survive while looking for traces of her..."

"But several years have passed, and there is no news about her. She is either dead or has been trafficked out of Meteor Street..."

"So, without shared beliefs, what do you think the future will be like for spiders?"

"..."

Huang Quan tried hard to recall the vague figure in Machi's memory, but inexplicably couldn't recall the other person's appearance.

Not long after, Huang Quan, who was a little confused, shook his head and responded to Chrollo's words.

"Are you trying to say... torn apart?"

"That's right!"

Looking at the seemingly harmonious but quite obvious small groups in the room, Chrollo said calmly: "It seems you have discovered..."

"This is also the reason why I did not notify everyone immediately after obtaining the information about [Nian] recently."

"Once one gains power, one's ambitions will expand extremely..."

"And the best result is that it is torn apart as you said!"
