A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 2225

Chapter 2225 Mystical Beast

“Elgado, although the Spirit Connecting Tree isn't very tall, none of us have ever picked a Spirit Connecting Fruit before. We don't know how to pick it,” Avery said.

“I haven’t seen anything like this before either, but we can try sending someone up to pick a fruit!” Elgado replied.

He speculated that the divine tree was likely restricted in some way. Retrieving a Spirit Connecting Fruit was no simple task and could even result in death if they accidentally triggered the restriction.

“Okay, we'll send someone up to try,” said Emiliano, supporting the guardian's proposal.

The guardian pointed at Luol and said, “Go up and pick one.”

Since Luol had not faced any consequences for betraying Scorching Heaven Sect, Elgado saw it as a chance to send him on a mission.

Luol's face immediately turned solemn when he heard that. He knew that the Spirit Connecting Fruit was not something that could be easily picked.

However, given Elgado's instructions, he had no choice but to comply. Luol began to climb the Spirit Connecting Tree carefully.

He was surrounded by an air wall that could protect him from harm if anything happened.

Eventually, Luol reached the Spirit Connecting Fruit, but he still dared not reach out to pluck it.

With a flick of his fingers, red lights shot out in all directions as Luol checked for any possible restrictions surrounding the Spirit Connecting Tree.

After a thorough investigation, he breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that there were no restrictions on the tree.

Slowly, he reached out to grab the Spirit Connecting Fruit.

Avery, Emiliano, and Elgado stood below, anxiously gazing up at the scene. If Luol were to successfully retrieve the fruit, they would not hesitate to rush up and pluck it themselves.

As soon as Luol's hand touched the fruit, a sweet fragrance suddenly emanated from it, causing the entire tree to shake violently.

Suddenly, they saw a huge green dragon baring its fangs as it devoured Luol in one bite.

Unfortunately, the man became lifeless and died in the dragon's mouth.

The dragon let out a loud roar, causing a powerful gust of wind to sweep across the ground.

“W-What the hell is that?” exclaimed Elgado, who had never seen such a creature before.

However, Emiliano and Avery recognized it. They had followed the underground entrance that the dragon created but had never seen the creature until now. It had been hiding in the treetops all along.

“This is probably the mystical beast that guards the Spirit

Connecting Tree. If we want to get our hands on the fruit, we have to slay the dragon,” Avery said firmly.
