Chapter 40: The Apple Tree

Sitting on the chair in front of the gaming table, Li Mo took out the freshly made dice and made only two.

After putting the dice on the table and taking the cup to cover it, Li Mo shook it casually.

Jiao Yiming and the others were nervous, but the nervous content was not the number of dice, but what was going to happen next.

Instead, the apple profiteer kept staring at the cup, and finally, the cup stopped.

Li Mo opened the cup, one of the two dice is three points, and the other is four points, this point is not big, but it is not small, if you gamble normally, if you are lucky, you will really have a chance to win.

However, Li Mo obviously would not pin his hopes on that illusory luck.

"Seven, as long as you can shake a point bigger than seven, you'll win."

Li Mo said as he put the dice in the cup and pushed it to the profiteer who sold the apples.

When the profiteer who sold the apple reached out and touched the cup, Li Mo suddenly interrupted him again.

"By the way, there's something I've always wanted to ask you."

Li Mo took advantage of the shadow of the table to drip the little sword-playing doll on his wrist to the ground.

"What's the matter?"

"Are your apples ripe?"

"Huh?" The profiteer who sold the apples was stunned for a moment.

"Nothing." Li Mo smiled, and under the order of his mind, the little sword doll had moved into the shadows behind the profiteer who sold apples.

"Shake it."

The sound of dice clashing with cups began to sound, making the silent room even more silent.

"Bang dang", "bang dang", the sound crashed into Jiao Yiming's ears and smashed into their hearts.

It was not only the sound of the dice shaking that smashed into their hearts, but also the moving shadow behind the apple profiteer.

[Will it go as smoothly as before?] 】

Almost as soon as this thought arose in Jiao Yiming's mind, the little doll holding the dark bone sword had already burst out of the shadows.

There seemed to be a flash of black light, but nothing seemed to have happened, and the next moment, the little doll with the black bone sword had already appeared on the other side of the profiteer selling apples.

"Bang dang", the dice rang for the last time, and no movement could be heard again.

And the profiteers who are sitting in their seats are disappearing into ashes at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Whew!" Jiao Yiming, who didn't even dare to breathe, breathed a long sigh of relief at this time.

"Mr. Li, it's done?"

"Hmm."

Li Mo nodded, and now he had a very magical feeling, as if he could completely control something......

Li Mo looked at Li Bang not far away!

Sure enough, the gambling contract came into effect, and Li Bang already belonged to him.

But the strange thing is that Li Mo can feel that Li Bang is resisting his control with a special force, this power is extremely small, like a firefly under the bright moon, Li Mo can easily suppress it.

Li Mo couldn't help but think that maybe as long as he gave up suppressing this force, Li Bang would be able to recover from weirdness to a normal person.

But...... Now is not the time.

If Li Bang returned to normal now, then his ascension ceremony might be completed immediately, but his current dark spiritual power was not yet full.

Li Mo looked at the load of apples next to the table, and the small words jumped out.

[Red apple, a third-order distortion material, increases one card of dark spiritual power after taking it, but as the dark spiritual power approaches saturation, the effect will weaken. 】

As Li Mo's mind moved, another line of small words jumped out:

[Dark Spiritual Power: 199.1 cards.] 】

"Mr. Li, is there anything special about this apple?" Xu Ya noticed Li Mo's gaze at Apple and asked.

"This apple can increase dark spiritual power, so I want to try to see if I can improve my dark spiritual power a little more."

As he spoke, Li Mo had already stood up and walked towards the load of apples.

picked one up casually, and didn't wash it, Li Mo opened his mouth and ate it directly.

Jiao Yiming and the others watched from the sidelines, and Xu Ya even used his ability to observe Li Mo's dark spiritual power value.

However, Xu Ya's ability was not as detailed as Li Mo's small words, and after Li Mo ate an apple, he could only see that Li Mo's dark spiritual power was still one hundred and ninety-nine calories, but Li Mo felt the change.

[Dark Spiritual Power: 199.2 cards.] 】

If you eat just one apple and it goes up by 0.1 calorie, wouldn't it be easy to reach 200 calories?

Li Mo hurriedly ate the next apple, but this time the dark spiritual power did not rise.

[Dark Spiritual Power: 199.2 cards.] 】

Although the data shown on the small print did not rise, another line of small print jumped out.

[Friend, your dark spiritual power has still risen, but the increase is very small, you can eat another one and take a look...... Oh, and by the way, each red apple is only valid for the first bite, so you don't have to eat it whole. 】

After reading the small print, Li Mo picked up the next apple again, and after only one bite, the data displayed in the small print changed.

[Dark Spiritual Power: 199.3 calories.] 】

As long as there is an increase, Li Mo picked up the next one, and then the next one.

This time, he ate a total of three apples, and his dark spiritual power rose by 0.1 calorie.

The next zero-tenths of a card used four apples, then five, six.

At this time, all the apples in the burden had been eaten by Li Mo, and his dark spiritual power had only reached 199.7 calories.

There were still 0.3 calories left from Li Mo's estimated limit of 200 calories of dark spiritual power, but Li Mo knew that if he wanted to let him cultivate, he would probably have to cultivate for several months.

Without knowing what would happen when he reached the limit of two hundred calories of dark spiritual power, Li Mo didn't really want to spend so much time accumulating that zero point three calories.

[So, that's all it takes? A feeling of amazement enveloped Li Mo.

But at this time, the small characters gave Li Mo new hope.

[Friend, didn't you keep an eye on it before? When you say the bet, you keep talking about his apples, but you don't say it's the apples in his burden, go to his backyard and see what you want. 】

Li Mo's eyes lit up, he turned to Jiao Yiming and said a word, and then walked out of the house.

After turning a few corners and coming to the backyard, Li Mo not only saw apples, but also apple trees!

[The Red Apple Tree, a fourth-order aberrant creature, does not have much ability, and its only role is to produce red apples. 】

Li Mo didn't count them, but after a general glance, he could see that there were dozens or hundreds of apples on this red apple tree, each of which was red and ripe!

[Rest assured to pick it, it's okay.] Before Li Mo could hesitate, small words had already popped up to tell him.

So Li Mo came to the apple tree, picked one and threw one away, and when he ate the seventh, his dark spiritual power came to 199.8 cards!

I took another look at the remaining apples on the apple tree, there were dozens of them, and the two hundred calories of dark spiritual power were stable!
