Chapter 40: The Final Countdown

Translator: Langshare  Editor: Langshare

Enoch, lying in bed, browsed the world channel.

He did not get any useful information. It seemed that everyone knew little about the invasion of the world of the dead.

Just as he was about to fall asleep again, Alice’s message popped up.

As a former partner, Enoch had added Alice as a friend.

But he could not understand why Alice was looking for him at this time?

Was she going to let him sleep?

Alice: “Do you still have the fruits from the previous trade?”

Enoch: “I don’t have the previous ones. Do you want a better one? [Intermediate energy fruit]”

When he sent the message, Enoch also attached a message with the [Intermediate energy fruit].

Alice seemed to have praised the taste of his fruit before, but now she still wanted to eat it?

Enoch: “Are you still hungry at this time?”

Alice: “…”

Alice: “This kind of fruit can quickly recover the spiritual energy that I used.”

Seeing Alice’s message, Enoch was stunned.

Recover spiritual energy?

Only after Alice said that did he remember that he felt refreshed when he ate the fruit!

With that said, his fruit was sold at a loss again!

Enoch: “Sure, how do you plan to exchange it? One [Intermediate energy fruit] is equivalent to three [Primary energy fruits].”

Seeing Enoch’s reply, Alice was not surprised. After three days of growth, most of the Divine Tree Masters had already harvested the second batch of fruits.

Alice: “Information about the invasion of the world of the dead.”

Enoch frowned. “How do you know about the invasion of the world of the Dead?”

If not for the previous intelligence transaction with Alice, Enoch would have suspected that Alice was lying to him.

However, Alice quickly replied.

Alice: “This is my fruit ability.”

Enoch: “Fruit Ability? Could it be that you can predict the future? How do you prove it?”

Alice: “When you obtained the first-kill, there were 50 berserk rats present. Their ability was lightning.”

Seeing Alice’s reply, Enoch was shocked. He was sure that when he killed the BOSS, there was absolutely no one around him.

The two Divine Tree Masters he had met earlier were scared away the moment they saw the berserk rats.

Judging from the visibility in the Black Fog, it was impossible for them to know the exact number of berserk rats.

Enoch said, “Understood. How many fruits do you plan to exchange for?”

He didn’t ask further. Alice’s ability was definitely not ordinary. Enoch even suspected that Alice had an SSS class ability.

Some things were good as long as they were known. There was no need to explain.

Alice said, “You can give it to me. I can tell you the information first.”

Alice was obviously aware of Enoch’s character. The result of the previous transaction was rather pleasant, so she directly told him the information she had seen.

Alice: “When the Netherworld invaded, monsters attacked from all directions. They came in batches every 30 minutes.”

Even if Alice did not say it, Enoch could roughly guess this. The only useful information was the frequency of the monsters’ attacks.

Enoch: “What else?”

Obviously, Alice would not only know this little bit of information.

Alice: “When the Netherworld invaded, there was a hidden rule!”

“The further you explore in the Netherworld, the more attacks you will suffer!”

“In other words, the number of monsters depends on the range you have explored!”

“I think with your strength, you should know about the exploration degree, right?”

“However, after the exploration area is turned into the territory, this area will become a safe zone and no monsters will attack!”

“This is the rule set by the world of the dead against the Divine Tree Masters of different strength!”

Seeing Alice’s reply, Enoch was stunned.

This…

Previously, in order to unlock the route on the map of the world of the dead, Enoch had lit up the unexplored areas along the way a little. He wanted to explore them when he entered the Black Fog again.

Although the exploration rate was around 1%, this was indeed an area that Enoch had explored before!

“In this way, I’ll have to bear the invasion of almost half of Maka Town??”

Would the invasion of the Netherworld dare to cheat him a little more?

Why didn’t the Divine Tree Space warn him when he explored the Black Fog!!

Alice saw that Enoch did not reply for a long time and thought that it was because Enoch did not believe her. After all, what she said had no basis in fact, so she said.

“If you don’t believe me, you can wait until the invasion of the Netherworld begins before you come to trade with me.”

“If I’m not wrong, I want at least five [Intermediate energy fruits].”

Enoch did not reply, and directly put ten [Intermediate energy fruits] on the trade panel.

There was no other reason, just because the information Alice gave was very important to Enoch!

Enoch, who had received the news in advance, could make a lot of preparations.

Currently, Enoch had counted all the resources in his hands.

The next time the [Divine Tree] would produce fruit was just a short time before the invasion of the Netherworld. He could not place all his hopes on the Divine Tree.

There were still three [Intermediate energy fruit trees] left. Two of them were not far away from producing fruit. When the time came, he could use the 200[Intermediate energy fruits] to exchange for some needed resources.

After the news of the imminent invasion of the undead world was released, Enoch immediately checked the trading platform.

All the items related to promoting the growth of the Divine Tree had been removed from the shelves by the owner at the speed of light.

Not to mention the seeds of various defensive plants, not a single one could be seen!

Enoch saw a few items that could promote the growth of the Divine Tree that had yet to be removed from the shelves, but he was also directly rejected by the other party during the transaction.

The most vexing thing right now was probably selling the defensive plant seeds to Enoch’s cam.

Enoch didn’t know the strength of [Pea shooter] for the time being, but Cam knew it very well.

Not to mention [Primary zombies], even some [Special zombies] were far from being a match for [Pea shooter]!

If it weren’t for the fact that [pea shooter] couldn’t move and couldn’t help him explore the Black Fog, plus the [intermediate energy fruit] Enoch traded was really too tempting.

Cam would never sell so many [pea shooters] so easily!

Now that he learned that the Netherworld was about to invade, Cam almost collapsed on the spot!

He even tried to contact Enoch to see if there was a chance to buy [Pea shooter] back.

Then he found the one-way private message set by Enoch…

Back to Enoch.

Currently, Enoch already had 30 [Pea shooters]. He should be able to obtain quite a bit of help when the undead world invaded.

Plus 100 [Berserk rats].

These were all the forces that Enoch currently had.

Looking at the berserk rats sleeping in the grass outside the window, Enoch’s heart calmed down slightly.

What made him a little stressed was that Enoch did not know what kind of monsters were lurking in some of the unexplored areas.

These unknown monsters might be a threat when the undead world invaded!

…

On the other side.

Alice was slightly stunned when she saw Enoch Trading 10[intermediate energy fruits] for her so straightforwardly.

She knew that Enoch definitely knew the value of the fruits in his hands!

The reason why he was so straightforward was probably because his information was very important to Enoch.

Or rather… !… Enoch had explored many areas in the past three days!

At that time, once the invasion of the realm of the dead began, Enoch would have to face much more danger!

Alice could only pray for Enoch in her heart.

She hoped that he would survive.

Thinking of this, Alice turned to look at Shivana, feeling a little headache.

Shivana was in charge of the exploration mission, so the difference between her and Enoch was not big. Alice would never have thought that the area Enoch explored was more than ten times more than Shivana’s.

After Alice told Shivana about the invasion of the Netherworld, Shivana looked worried.

Not only had she explored an area outside her own island, but she had also explored a lot of areas around Alice’s Island.

Although it was not as ridiculous as Enoch’s, Shivana did not even explore an area that was 100% explored.

This was the reason why she felt so pressured.

Fortunately, Shivana had successfully formed an alliance with Alice, and they could teleport to each other’s islands.

At this time, many of the Divine Tree Masters who didn’t know each other began to look for allies.

They wanted to have more hope of surviving when the undead world invaded.

As for whether their “Allies” would backstab at the critical moment.

This was no longer within the scope of the panicking Divine Tree Master.

At this moment.

There were still 20 hours left before the invasion of the Netherworld!
