In this Evil Demon City, there were many things that looked strange or weird, but they were actually delicious.
Chen Zhao also brought many local delicacies. He planned to bring them home for Fali to try too.
Before going back, the handsome guy gave Chen Zhao the lucky coin and substitute coin that he'd promised last time.
"Human, this is for you." The handsome guy placed a gem in Chen Zhao's hand.
"What's this gem for?" Chen Zhao asked curiously.
"Resurrection Gem. Can only be used once. It can make you immune to lethal damage for a short time."
"Your gift seems a bit expensive."
"Take it. Oh, Merry Christmas."
"Err …"
A demon king told himself, Merry Christmas.
Why does this feel so weird?
Chen Zhao returned to the human world with this weird feeling.
"Fali, come in. I brought you good food."
Hearing Chen Zhao's voice, Fali immediately ran in.
Fali was already very greedy before she got pregnant. Now, she was even more greedy.
"What good food?"
"I'll take it out. Don't be scared."
"How can I be scared? I've seen everything."
Fali had also seen super disgusting or ugly monsters or extremely ferocious evil spirits.
Therefore, Fali felt that she could face everything calmly now.
Chen Zhao took out the Gnaw Fruit. Sensing Fali beside him, the Gnaw Fruit immediately opened its mouth, wanting to bite Chen Zhao.
Fali immediately screamed and ran away. "What is this?"
"See? You said you weren't scared."
"What is this?" Fali repeated the question.
"It's called a Gnaw Fruit. It's a type of food. Of course, if you're not careful, you'll be eaten too."
"Can it be eaten?"
"It looks weird, but it tastes really, really good."
"Really?"
Chen Zhao had the underlings cut it up and then brought it to Fali.
With a suspicious expression, Fali didn't reach out to take it.
"Eat it. It's really good."
Fali finally gathered her courage and picked up a piece.
After taking a bite, Fali felt energized.
The Gnaw Fruit's flesh was really special.
It tasted like meat but wasn't. It was also extremely fresh and tender.
It was sweet but not greasy, with a faint meaty aroma.
"Isn't it delicious?"
Without needing Chen Zhao to say anything, Fali had already finished the fruit and picked up another piece.
"Chen, can we plant this?"
Chen Zhao smiled bitterly. He'd thought about what Fali was thinking too.
However, this place didn't have the environment of Hell, and it was very troublesome to grow the Bite Fruit.
It had to be fed to living creatures, and it needed a lot of sulfur.
Moreover, it would be very dangerous if the people around him accidentally passed by.
If he was bitten, it would be the same as being bitten by a dog.
It wouldn't kill, but it would cause significant damage to the body.
So, Chen Zhao rejected this idea.
If Fali wanted to eat more, he could just get some the next time he went to Hell. There was no need to grow such a dangerous plant at home.
"I still have a lot here, enough for you to eat."
"Is it enough?" Fali asked.
Fali felt that since it was already Christmas.
Therefore, he had to choose some gifts to visit his friends and family.
"I thought about this when I came back, so I brought quite a lot," Chen Zhao said. "But I have to cut them and wrap them up. If I give them whole, they'll be scared to death."
"Cut some more," Fali said. "I'll give them to people too."
"Okay."
First, Chen Zhao and Fali went to Bant's family.
Because it was Christmas, Ken was on holiday too.
The two of them stayed in Bant's house for a while before leaving.
But then, they went their separate ways to give gifts.
"Steven, are you at home?"
"I'm here. Why? Do you want to come over? "
"I'll give you some food."
"F * ck, you're too insincere."
"My food is very special. I guarantee you've never eaten it before."
"Really?" Steven knew that Chen Zhao had some special abilities, so he was instantly interested in his so-called special food.
Chen Zhao went to Steven's house and saw that Famtis and Evan were there too.
"Hi, Famtis, and Evan."
"Mr. Chen." Ever since Famtis realized Chen Zhao's scary side, he was respectful every time he saw Chen Zhao.
"Chen, what kind of food are you giving me?" Steven asked eagerly as he walked out of the room.
Chen Zhao took out a wrapped box and gave it to Steven.
Steven opened the box and picked up a piece of fruit.
In an instant, Steven's eyes widened. "What is this? This taste … it's amazing, Olis. So delicious. "
Chen Zhao picked up a piece and tossed it to Evan.
Famtis' face darkened. "Mr. Chen, Evan doesn't eat fruit."
But the next moment, Evan went up and picked up the fruit. He chewed a few times and swallowed it.
Then, Evan looked at Chen Zhao expectantly.
Famtis' eyes widened as he stared at Evan in shock.
No way. Even his eating habits changed after seeing Chen Zhao?
"Damn, Chen, it's such a waste to give such a small amount of fruit to Evan," Steven said with a pained expression.
Chen Zhao took out another piece and gave it to Famtis. "This is for you."
Since Chen Zhao had seen Famtis, at least they knew each other. He wouldn't give her a piece.
Famtis was somewhat stunned. He didn't know whether he should take it or not.
"Take it," Chen Zhao said. "Even if you don't want it, Evan should be interested."
"Chen, what is this? It tastes so special. Where did you buy it? I'll go buy some too."
"There's no place to buy it. Apart from me, there's no other place … Don't think about asking for more. I don't have much either. I have to give it to someone else."
"I'll take Rasfa's share for him. You can give it to me."
Chen Zhao rolled his eyes. "Oh, Famtis, can you go out for a while? I have something to talk to Steven about."
"Okay, Mr. Chen."
Seeing Chen Zhao's serious expression, Steven didn't understand.
"Chen, what do you want to say?"
"I heard that DSN has a movie called God of War. It's going to be released at the same time as James' movie, right?"
"Yes, James is really unlucky to see this movie. DSN invited me to watch it during the test screening. It's really good."
"I hate the director of this movie," Chen Zhao said.
"You have a grudge against him?"
"If James' movie suddenly becomes popular, will it affect God of War's box office?"
"You want to …"
"If God of War's box office fails, will DSN's stock be affected?"
It was the new year. Chen Zhao planned to earn some money for himself.
"You want to short DSN's stock price?"
"Yes."
"How confident are you?" Steven asked.
"I'm confident that I can turn James around, but I'm not sure how much it will affect God of War's box office."
