Chapter 1313: Magical Fruit

Lin Qiao curiously looked at the fruit that the big cat had brought over. The fruit was black, as big as a baby’s fist, and round. She could feel a special energy flowing inside it. What was even more surprising was that some changes seemed to be happening in the area near the fruit.

She narrowed her eyes to observe the area and found the faint purple energy drifting in the air being forced away once it approached the black fruit. For that reason, the air surrounding the black fruit was completely purple-energy-free, as if the fruit were isolated.

Eh? Was that a fruit a cure for the purple energy?

With the new discovery, Lin Qiao made a guess as she quietly leaped forward and airily landed on a large leaf in front of the cat. Instead of showing her face, she walked straight up to the cat and patted on its forepaw.

The big cat was about eight meters long, and it looked even taller than usual when sitting down. Standing in front of it, Lin Qiao looked like a child.

Feeling Lin Qiao pat on its paw, the big cat gave a start and then made a hop backward. After that, it popped its eyes and gazed at the area where it was sitting before. It spent a short while looking at that area but failed to see anything. It raised its tail and tilted its head as it fixed its eyes on that area without blinking.

Lin Qiao found its reaction amusing. After spending some time watching the cat, she said, “Come here.”

She talked to the cat but still didn’t show up.

On hearing her voice, the big cat shook its ears and looked around with both surprise and confusion. Then, it abruptly turned to stare at the area where Lin Qiao stood.

If it didn’t mishear, her voice came from that area.

The cat looked at that place carefully but still didn’t see anything. Anxiously, it stomped its feet and wagged its tail.

“Errr?”

That confused look on the cat’s face really made Lin Qiao want to laugh, especially its pair of large and red eyes which were now filled with puzzlement!

Lin Qiao felt that the big, red cat was exactly like a normal cat on the earth’s surface, aside from the fact that it was a vegetarian.

“Errrrhhh?” Once again, the big cat uttered a deep sound from its throat, which sounded so confused. It didn’t understand the words that Lin Qiao said just now.

“Roar,” Lin Qiao gave the cat a soft roar. ‘Come here,’ she said.

The big cat quickly tightened its ears when it heard Lin Qiao’s roar. It still looked bewildered, but did start to move toward her slowly with curiosity. Clearly, it understood Lin Qiao’s roar and recognized her voice.

As same as Strong, the cat was able to understand zombie roars. Lin Qiao really wasn’t expecting the cat to understand her zombie roars. She thought only Strong could do that.

Lin Qiao walked to the fruit and squatted to pick it up. Then, she turned to ask the cat a question using a zombie roar, “Roar?” ‘Is this for me?’

She was going to ask the cat if the fruit was a cure, but changed her mind on a second thought, because she wa worried that the cat might not understand the word ‘cure’.

“Hrr!” The big cat immediately nodded.

“Do you want me to eat it or the others?” Lin Qiao asked the cat another question.

She, of course, didn’t need to eat the fruit, because the energy in the air couldn’t deliver any negative effects to her. So, the fruit was probably for the humans, or Black. After all, Black reacted to the air intensely just now.

The cat shook its head and wagged its tail as it tilted its head and thought for a moment. After that, it scratched the giant tree root under its feet with its claws, but then it took a few circles in where it was, seemingly unsatisfied with the marks it created on the root.

Seeing the cat circling with its eyes on the scratches it created, Lin Qiao went up to it while holding the fruit. She lowered her head and carefully looked at those twisting claw marks on the root, but couldn’t figure out what the cat had tried to draw.

“What did you draw?” Lin Qiao looked at the cat and asked.

“Hrr… Hrr…” After taking a few more circles, the cat abruptly stopped moving and faced Lin Qiao as it swung its head hard up and down a few times. The cat’s movement reminded Lin Qiao of the way Black sneezed earlier.

“Roar?” ‘Is it for the big black snake?’ she asked the cat.

“Meow!” The big cat immediately stopped moving and squatted before her as it gently patted the ground with a paw twice and nodded.

Lin Qiao looked at the cat with surprise and then glanced at the fruit as she murmured, “Eh? Really? It makes sense though. Normally, a natural cure would exist in the area with poisonous snakes or plants.”

It was shocking that the cat actually brought the cure to her. What was even more magical that the cat knew the fruit would be helpful for her.

What a smart cat!

“Roar!” ‘I’m gonna give it a try!’ she roared at the cat.

The cat quietly looked at the empty area in front of it and wagged its tail. Next, Lin Qiao brought the fruit into her space and showed up by the pool, where she squatted and stirred the water with a hand.

In the water, Black moved its body reluctantly to let Lin Qiao know that it didn’t want to come out of the water at the moment.

“Come up here!” Lin Qiao slapped the water surface.

Finally, Black moved its huge body and pop its head out of the water, looking at her unhappily. The snake’s face wasn’t wearing an actual unhappy expression, but Lin Qiao could read the look in its eyes.

“Alright, cheer up! Come on, try this! Open your mouth…” Lin Qiao said to the snake as she threw the fruit toward its mouth. Seeing her throw over a small black fruit, Black automatically opened its mouth and caught it. The snake knew that she wouldn’t make it eat anything harmful.

The fruit entered the snake’s stomach and soon was melted by the gastric juice. The special energy was immediately released, being absorbed by its body.

That energy was rather stimulative for Black.

Lin Qiao stood by the poolside as she watched the snake eat the fruit. Three seconds later, it shuddered and started shaking, as if it were hit by an electric current. It looked quite funny as it suddenly reared up its head in the middle of the pool and looked like a pillar. The snake somehow looked a little silly that way!

Black only maintained that silly posture for three seconds before its body grew soft. After that, it slowly twisted its body from side to side and crawled toward Lin Qiao.

Apparently, the fruit had worked well. It had already neutralized the underground energy that made the snake feel very uncomfortable.
