Bizarre Detective Agency

   Chapter 1278 Two hundred and sixteen. Nearly

   The fluffy soil that has been turned up in the garden is like gravel because it is dry.

  The heat and barrenness enveloped the barren land, and nothing seemed to change it.

   On this piece of sand that is destined to be fruitless, a figure is busy, picking stones, crushing soil, and carefully and carefully examining the land.

   Following the figure, he straightened his waist, revealing Lu Li who had rolled up his sleeves and was wearing an apron.

   Stepping through the sandy soil of Songwo, passing by the manor covered with sandy soil next door, Lu Li took off his apron and returned to the shade under the shed built by the steps of the mansion.

   Although the heat of **** could not hurt him, the shade would still comfort the soul.

   "...Does this make plants grow?" Earth Demon asked him.

   "Not yet."

   Actually yes, but it takes time, and the farther you are from land, the harder it is for plants to grow.

   So Lu Li will release the Tree Whisperer in the center of the manor: "Don't you need to report to your father?"

   Once the Tree Whisperer who has infused thousands of copies of humanity appears, it may not only change the manor, but also the Corrent Meteorite Street. And the entire Abyss City will notice Annie's phantom.

   "...No, father won't bother about everything that happens in the territory."

  The territory of each devil child is like a city within a city.

  Lu Li untied his apron under the gaze of the Earth Demon and the Mind Raider, walked out of the shed, and released the Tree Whisperer.

   It was like the shadow of an ancient tree suddenly descended on the earth, the shadow of the tree body filled the entire mansion, and the lush tree canopy hundreds of meters high shrouded the entire Corrent Meteorite Street.

   Unlike the dreamer, the treetalker's growth is uncontrollable, and the phantom cannot be reduced, but the corresponding consumption of human nature is not as severe as that of the dreamer, just like Annie's phantom bears part of the price for Lu Li.

   Lu Li only released the Tree Whisperer in an instant to restrain it, and the phantom of Annie only flickered briefly in the stretched city.

Many demon citizens have noticed the strange situation, but only some saw the fleeting shadows of trees, and even fewer saw the manor surrounded by demon guards and releasing a strange atmosphere that the residents of Corrent Meteor Street saw suddenly appear. A green.

   The mind-grabber holding the orange cat was sluggish because of the phantom that appeared briefly: "What kind of power is that..."

   "The power of this world."

  The barren sandy soil in the manor grows into lawns, and the plants even extend to the streets and the walls of the houses, surprising the residents.

   This is just the beginning. After the Tree Whisperer spawns plants, Lu Li's presence will keep them from dying and continuing to grow.

   "...I can't feel it yet."

   But maybe because there is only a manor-sized grassland, occupying only a few tenths of the Corrent Meteorite Street, the power of the Earth Demon has not changed.

   "Maybe it will take time."

   "...can you make trees stronger?"

   "They're not trees...at least not yet."

  Different from human nature, the human nature possessed by Lu Li can only bring life to the dormant plants, but the Tree Whisperer seems to bring seeds from the void to accelerate the growth.

Broad leaves, narrow leaves, many leaves, single plants, flower seeds, tree species, vines... These plants grow from soil without nutrients, moisture, or even seeds. Even botanists can't name them. .

   "This pasture is not too big for your territory, we need time."

   "...you're right, I'm too impatient."

   A small piece of gravel peeled off the body of the Earth Demon and flew to the demon guard outside the manor. The demon guards who received the order came quickly, and then did what would make all demons strange: they lay on the ground like wicked demons picking flesh from the sand, holding up the sand, which would be pocket-sized for them. Plants are packed into pots and sent out of the manor.

  The plants in these pots will be handed over to each resident of Corrent Meteorite Street to take care of, and each plant will have a soul.

Although the people of the land demons complained that the lords were collecting new taxes, they soon realized the value of plants - and they also heard that there were merchants outside for a hundred souls or more per plant. There is also a frenzy when it comes to acquisitions.

   This is not a tax, this is a benefit given to his subjects by the great lord who is second only to the Abyss Demon!

   Earth Demon did not stop the residents from doing their thing. Because those plants that are inhuman and too far from the land will quickly wither, because the resident will collect a transaction tax from it when he sells it.

  Lu Li will not say anything, because there are hundreds of thousands of buds in the manor——

  The manor in front of him has been restored to barren because the plants were taken away by the demon guards.

  ——And then, the flicker of Annie's phantom will appear many times.

   Every time the towering shadow of the world tree appeared, Lu Li would get more than 3,000 copies of humanity, residents who spent one soul to buy the plant would resell dozens or hundreds of souls, and the Earth Demon would receive hundreds of thousands of souls in taxes.

   So much so that residents began to look forward to every flicker of that mysterious manor, even as the plants rapidly depreciated from hundreds to dozens to dozens of souls.

   Lu Liting's original 10,000 human nature became 20,000 people after Anne's phantom flashed three times, and 40,000 people after ten times.

   Neighboring blocks therefore complained to the Earth Demon that the residents were irritable and lacked appetite because of the seductive scent wafting from Corrent Meteorite Street, while the other devil descendants fell into a strange silence.

   Earth Demons of course know that they will not give up, so they are feeling new power from the earth.

   The resentful spirit, who had become a high-level demon, said in surprise when he came back that it felt the aura of Lu Li outside the abyss city.

   There is no doubt that Lu Li has entered Abyss City and the real monarch who is thousands of miles around, the real sight of the Abyss Demon.

When   Humanity accumulated to 50,000, Lu Li's income began to slow, because outside businessmen realized that the plants would wither quickly, and the residents stopped buying them because they couldn't sell them.

   At this time, Lu Li received an invitation letter: he was invited to attend the grand feast during his last sleep in the year 5338 of the Eugras calendar.

   Earth Demon suggested Lu Li to participate, and he was also an invitee. Not only it, but all devil descendants, presiding judges, and abyss city dignitaries will participate.

This is a special festival, because before long the gloom gushing out of the abyss in the center of Abyss City infected the city, shrouding the city in night-like gloom, and the flames of lava, skulls, or ever-burning rock oil Light up Abyss City.

  Looking at the continuous firelight in the city, he seemed to see the bustling night of Belfast.

   On the eve of departure, the pentagram brand on the back of the hand was blazing for the twenty-seventh time.

   The Devil's Daughter is approaching.

   It was more than two days away from the initial appointment, which should be the limit that the Devil's Daughter could postpone - the inverted pentagram mark on the back of her hand was no longer dim, and it continued to provide her own position fiery.

  The Devil's Daughter will come soon to witness Lu Li's harvest.
