"Why won't you let me speak? No one knows better than me how powerful Gu Nan is, "the Sun Demon said in a deep voice.
"With his help, we'll be able to eliminate the Moon Slaves more easily."
The little loli Moon Demon shook her head. "There's no such person in the ancestor's prophecy … The only one who can end the Moon Slaves is our contractor."
"Prophecies are never completely accurate!" Little Ming retorted.
Although he never spoke much in front of others, he did not have a bad temper in front of the Moon Demon that lived with him. In fact, he would even refute her.
The Moon Demon shook her head. "That guy … We know nothing about him. It's better to keep our contractor away from him."
…
The advancement to the west of the city was smoother than expected. In just two hours, they arrived at the source of the anomaly shown on the map.
This caused everyone's spirits to rise slightly. Even Lin Duo, who had a gloomy expression, revealed a curious expression.
The thing that caused the mutation of the Moon Slaves was soon revealed to everyone. Contrary to everyone's expectations, it was actually a towering azure tree that towered into the sky.
It looked as if it was carved out of a gem. It was so beautiful that it seemed unreal.
"This is a Moon Slave … No, I should say it's like a Moon Slave. It's an entity made entirely of Moon Energy," Gu Zhaoyue said immediately.
Like many elemental creatures, Moon Slaves were individuals with a single rule. Their bodies were made of Moon Energy. However, there was no Moon Element in this world, so they were not considered elemental creatures.
The reason why Moon Slaves were called Moon Slaves was because they would often worship the night sky due to their own power.
The mutated Moon Slaves were contaminated, so they could not feel the moon. However, the giant tree in front of them was reproducing this scene.
The Moon Slaves were all over the mountains. Their bodies glowed in red and blue as they quietly prostrated themselves under the giant tree.
The arrival of the people from the Star-Moon Camp seemed to have triggered these Moon Slaves. They began to raise their heads and look in their direction.
The eyes of the Moon Slaves glowed brightly, causing everyone's scalps to go numb.
"Let's go!"
At Gu Zhaoyue's order, everyone ran for their lives without hesitation. It was as if they would be torn into pieces if they were a step slower.
Lin Duo was still in a daze when she was dragged away by the Sun and Moon Twin Demons.
A quantitative change would lead to a qualitative change. The number of Moon Slaves gathered here was just too terrifying. Even the most elite team would be overwhelmed in an instant.
'No wonder I didn't feel much pressure along the way …' Gu Zhaoyue sighed inwardly. 'I'm afraid that all the Moon Slaves gathered nearby have squeezed into that area.'
"But … what exactly is that?"
The image of the huge tree flashed across Gu Zhaoyue's mind. She turned around and looked behind her. 'Does that person have a way to deal with so many Moon Slaves?'
…
Gu Nan naturally had a way.
Even though the Moon Slaves in this area were so densely packed that it was inconvenient for him to use Hidden Shadow to sneak in, Gu Nan still had many ways to deal with them.
He could use Shadow Body to lure the monsters and slowly kill off the Moon Slaves. He could also use Shadow Body to forcefully break through the Moon Slaves and then switch to his original body … However, he chose the simplest option.
Fly in.
Yes, Moon Slaves had a very awkward weakness. Because they were generally weak, there were no Moon Slaves with the ability to fly until now.
The Morning Star Heroic Spiritualists did not train themselves much, so there were very few who had the ability to fly. It was the same even for the third rank.
There were quite a few Heroic Spiritualists who could fly, but they could not carry people, could not attack for long, and could only fly at low altitudes.
Only Gu Nan, a visitor from another world, was familiar with flying.
Even in the Astral Realm, flying was almost an instinct of Transcendents.
Just like that, Gu Nan flew in unhurriedly from midair. The Moon Slaves on the ground began to roar, but could do nothing to him.
They were not completely helpless. At the very least, many Moon Slaves were thrown up by their companions in an attempt to attack Gu Nan.
However, Gu Nan was not one of those weak helicopters in the army. Even if these Moon Slaves could reach him, what was the point?
After a while, Gu Nan arrived in front of the giant tree, "Rather than saying that they're worshipping this tree, it's better to say that they're waiting for the fruits on it …"
Gu Nan could see clearly that there were many blue fruits growing on the branches of the giant tree. Each of them was crystal clear and had the same color as the giant tree, making it difficult to distinguish them from afar.
This towering tree was so tall that the Moon Slaves could not reach the fruits. They could not even get close to the tree, and could only wait for the fruits to fall on their own.
Even without using his senses, he could feel the astonishing power coming from the fruits.
'Could the Sons of Moon Slaves be made from something like this? How did this tree grow? 'Doubts flashed through Gu Nan's mind.
However, Gu Nan's hand did not stop. He reached out and plucked a fruit from the tree, then threw it into the crowd of Moon Slaves.
The entire scene seemed to go silent for a moment. In the next moment, there were probably more than a hundred thousand Moon Slaves in this area, and they all rioted.
Screams, roars, and the sound of tearing could be heard everywhere. Countless Moon Slaves swarmed toward the place where the fruit had fallen.
The lucky one who had been hit by the fruit immediately opened his mouth and swallowed the fruit. Unfortunately, he did not have time to digest the fruit, and he was torn apart by his companions in the blink of an eye.
After all, the lucky one would not go far.
One of the characteristics of Moon Slaves was that they could devour and assimilate each other.
However, they did not have the tendency to devour their companions. In ancient times, Moon Slaves were not so common that they had not been discovered.
Gu Nan was aware of this. Tian Yuan had used this method to forcefully implant polluting information into the bodies of Moon Slaves.
It was the same now. The fruit's power had not been digested, but it was still contained in the lucky one's body. Hence, his companions continued to devour and assimilate it.
The Moon Slave that had "eaten" him was torn apart and eaten by more Moon Slaves …
The nature of the energy transformation meant that the fruit's power was not lost at all. It was only dispersed into the bodies of the Moon Slaves.
This power was a fatal temptation to the Moon Slaves. The Moon Slaves continued to attack each other. In the short span of a few breaths, more than a hundred thousand Moon Slaves had been turned into large pieces of broken corpses.
The number of Moon Slaves was decreasing, and the fruit's power was becoming more concentrated. The final victor was about to be decided.
Gu Nan had been watching all this coldly from the sidelines. At this moment, he could not help but feel excited. Could it be that the one who was born from the fruit would be the Son of Moon Slave?
Following a deafening roar, a huge Moon Slave that was as tall as three or four people finally bit its opponent to death and enjoyed the fruit's power for itself.
The Evil God's Temple in Gu Nan's mind trembled slightly, and a message was transmitted.
"Side Mission: Upgrade the King of Moon Slaves to the third level."
