Chapter 225: New Changes in the Fruit of Wisdom
Thinking about it, Su Qi couldn't help but observe carefully.
The eight humanoid creatures in front of him who had eaten the fruit were five males and three females.
The males are more muscular and masculine, while the females have softer and prettier facial lines, similar to humans.
After observing for more than twenty minutes, Su Qi still didn't see any changes.
After the panic, those humanoid creatures that looked like dwarves began to move again one by one, and there was nothing particularly abnormal.
Of course, with the increase in intelligence, these creatures communicated with each other a lot more, and from the howling sounds, it could be heard that they seemed to be surprised by this change as well.
There are also some small details in life that show that they seem to have their own self and become a little selfish in their actions.
"Is it because the time is too short and no changes have occurred yet..."
Su Qi murmured.
After thinking about it, he first spent some time filling the area near the Tree of Wisdom with a mysterious aura or magnetic field, making the animals afraid of this area and actively avoiding it. Then he immediately said, "Speed up time by three days!"
A prompt sound appears.
[Under your will, three days passed in a flash...]
As soon as he finished speaking, the scene before his eyes flashed by quickly, and finally stopped on a sunny morning three days later.
Su Qi saw that out of fear and psychological trauma, the eight dwarves who had eaten the fruit of wisdom did not go to the place where the tree of wisdom was during this period of time.
Even after they had become intelligent, they still used cries and gestures to tell other ordinary dwarves about the horror of the fruit.
Su Qi just kept shaking his head, feeling somewhat speechless, "It seems that these dwarves haven't realized that they have been able to achieve so many changes thanks to the fruit of the Tree of Wisdom."
"But you're right. Wisdom doesn't mean anything. Lack of knowledge will also make you look foolish. And they didn't gain wisdom long enough, so it's normal that they didn't realize the problem right away."
"However, this time is enough for them to show some other changes."
Su Qi couldn't help but recall some of the small anomalies that occurred during the three days that passed by quickly.
Thinking of this, he lowered his gaze and observed carefully, his attention mainly focused on a female dwarf.
She was seen gesticulating and howling at the other two male dwarves who had eaten the fruit. The translator translated it as, "Don't go, it's dangerous!"
She pointed in a direction, her face full of fear.
The two dwarves were stunned when they heard this, and looked puzzled. After looking in the direction she pointed, they started talking.
"Where is the danger?"
"Not dangerous."
That was where they planned to hunt. If they didn't go there, they would have to change direction, but doing so would take more time, so the two were reluctant.
At this moment, following behind the three of them were four other dwarves, both men and women.
But compared to them who had eaten the fruit, the dwarves were very stupid.
"Go on, go on."
Under the insistence of the two men, the woman, although frightened, had no choice but to grit her teeth and follow them.
After a while, driven by their hunting instinct, the seven dwarves walked quietly among the trees.
However, just as they were looking around, trying to find prey, a large cat suddenly jumped out from the bushes not far to the right like lightning.
"roar!"
It leaped into the air, its two claws wide open and its mouth open, revealing densely packed sharp teeth.
Its purpose was very clear. It had already set its sights on a thin, ordinary dwarf, and when the target got close, it pounced on him viciously.
The whole process happened so fast that before the dwarves could react, the male dwarf was pinned to the ground with a scream.
“Crack…”
The beast bit the dwarf's neck on the ground, and blood flowed out immediately.
After the fatal blow, the orange feline quickly jumped away, avoiding a series of rocks thrown at it.
“Roar~”
It retreated to a distance, baring its teeth, and confronted the dwarves.
Although the dwarves were somewhat frightened, their eyes turned red when they saw one of their companions die. They looked at the beasts in the distance and roared angrily.
A few minutes later...
"roar!"
The large cats fled with injuries, and the bronze skin of the dwarves present was covered with scars and torn flesh, with blood constantly flowing out.
After a while, they howled around the dead dwarf, as if they were performing a farewell ceremony, or as if they wanted to wake him up.
While the ordinary dwarves were still howling, the two male dwarves who had eaten the fruit of wisdom approached the female dwarves with lingering fear.
"How do you know... there's danger?"
At this moment, the two were very surprised and confused.
"I don't know..." The female dwarf panicked and explained incoherently while gesticulating, "I have a feeling..."
The two male dwarves didn't understand what they said, but the general meaning was that she felt frightened when she was going to the hunting place.
It seemed as if someone was telling him that it was dangerous there and he couldn't go there.
Hearing her say this, the two male dwarves immediately showed awe and fear on their faces.
"Maybe there is a powerful, terrifying being protecting you."
Unable to figure out the reason, the two could only think that there was a mysterious existence protecting them.
Su Qi was in the air, listening to the translated actions and words, and a look of interest appeared on his face.
"interesting……"
He knew that no one was protecting the female dwarf, it must be the dwarf's own ability.
"Sixth sense, danger sensing or something like that?"
Su Qi guessed.
"Except for her..."
At this time, some scenes appeared before his eyes again.
In another hunting team, a male dwarf was in danger at first when he encountered a ferocious beast. However, when faced with a life-and-death crisis, he was able to deal with the opponent with amazing reaction speed.
Even after some maneuvers, he still gained the upper hand.
"What's going on again?" Su Qi was a little surprised.
Obviously, the male dwarf also had special powers.
Su Qi's eyes lit up and he became curious. He listened carefully to the male dwarf's explanation to his companions.
"Slowing down..."
The general meaning is that in the eyes of the male dwarf , the speed of the beast suddenly became very slow, so he was able to react quickly, dodge and counterattack again and again, and defeat the beast.
"How many times faster has the reaction speed become?"
Su Qi speculated and became curious, "Besides these two, do the others have special powers?"
