59: The powerful effects of fruit wine

The three of them knew it was wine just by smelling it.

Although surprised that even mutated beasts could brew wine, their strong curiosity still drove each of them to take a sip.

Upon tasting it, the first thing they experienced was a rich fruity aroma.

Once it entered their stomachs, the effects of the wine immediately took hold.

The three only felt their bodies grow hot, their ears and cheeks turning crimson from the heat.

In a short while, the warm current within their bodies receded.

The three clearly felt that their Physiques had strengthened somewhat, and the muscles in various parts of their bodies had also become very tough.

Especially the enhancement of their leg muscles, which increased their movement speed by a notch.

The three stood rooted to the spot, looking at each other in silence, all startled by the potent effects of this fruit wine.

Su Luo observed their reactions just now; they were clearly more intense than his own.

It seemed that this fruit wine had a stronger reaction and better effect on humans with lower Superpower Ranks.

Suddenly, a wondrous thought came to Su Luo's mind.

What if he sold this kind of wine at school?

With his status as the Headmaster's disciple, selling something within the school should face no obstacles.

Moreover, the effect of this item was extremely tempting to most people.

A comprehensive enhancement of Physique – which Ability User could resist such an effect?

Even his Master, Moto, would likely be extremely tempted.

The more Su Luo thought about it, the more he felt this matter had great potential, completely forgetting that there were still four other people present.

Li Qingtian and the other three were extremely curious at this moment, but seeing Su Luo lost in thought, they didn't want to interrupt him casually.

Su Luo snapped back to reality, noticing the gazes of Li Qingtian and the other three, and suddenly realized he had forgotten about them.

He winked at the other Crimson Fire Red Ape, signaling it to ladle a spoonful of fruit wine for Li Qingtian and the other three as well.

After Li Qingtian and the other three drank it, they all felt their Physiques strengthen, and were astonished, never imagining such a miraculous item existed in this world.

Su Luo leaped down, landing on the ground.

Seeing Su Luo dismount from the Crimson Fire Red Ape, the others also dared not remain on the Crimson Fire Red Ape and all came down in unison.

After all, the Crimson Fire Red Ape feared Su Luo, not them.

Su Luo stood on the ground, his eyes fixed on the two Crimson Fire Red Apes, and spoke softly in a calm tone:

"Crimson Fire Red Apes, how about we make a deal?"

The two Crimson Fire Red Apes were a bit puzzled; with their intelligence, they naturally knew what 'deal' meant, but they weren't sure what kind of deal Su Luo wanted to make.

"Hoo-hoo-roo~ Woo-woo-roo."

"They want to know what kind of deal you want to make," Su Tong said softly in his mind.

Su Luo spoke with great arrogance and confidence:

"I want you to provide me with a certain amount of fruit wine each month."

"In exchange, I can provide protection for your clan and help you clear out all other mutated beast clans nearby that pose a threat to your clan."

"Simply put, this entire forest will belong to your Crimson Fire Red Ape clan, and your obligation is to provide me with fruit wine every month."

"How about it, you two?" Su Luo suggested with a smile.

The two Crimson Fire Red Apes exchanged glances.

It was impossible for them not to be tempted by Su Luo's proposal.

Their clan's survival was difficult; although they generally didn't fight with other mutated beast clans, they couldn't stop other mutated beast clans from provoking them.

Each time two clans clashed, they would lose a large number of their young adults, which caused great heartache to their highly intelligent minds.

If this entire forest belonged to them, the expansion of their territory would cause their clan's numbers to skyrocket, with breaking ten thousand being only a matter of time.

But if they agreed, wouldn't their clan become mere wine-making tools for humans?

Their clan would expand, but they would lose their dignity.

The two Crimson Fire Red Apes frowned, deeply conflicted, then simultaneously turned their bodies and whispered to each other, seemingly needing to discuss it thoroughly.

Seeing this, Su Luo revealed a mysterious smile.

If they agreed, everything would be fine, both sides harmonious, and everyone happy.

If they didn't agree... hmph, then his harvest would gain two more fifth-level crystal cores.

A few minutes later, the two Crimson Fire Red Apes finished their discussion, turned around, and just as they were about to speak, they saw the chilling cold light flashing in Su Luo's eyes.

They had actually intended to refuse Su Luo's proposal; after their discussion, they still felt that dignity was more important.

If they lost even their dignity, what good was such a large territory?

But Su Luo's piercing gaze sent a chill from the bottom of their hearts.

The words they originally wanted to use to refuse the proposal were forcefully caught in their mouths, and they dared not utter them.

They had no doubt that if they dared to say no, next year on this day would be their death anniversary.

"You two, have you made up your minds? Do you agree to my proposal?" Su Luo's pupils flashed with a dangerous purple light, and he spoke with a warm, smiling face.

The two Crimson Fire Red Apes looked at this smiling face and felt their entire bodies tremble, as if in the next second, they would lose consciousness and completely vanish from this world.

Images of the tragic state of the three Iron Armored Violent Bears and two Thorn-Scaled Giant Pythons flashed through their minds; after being killed by this human, not a single bit of flesh and blood remained.

Thinking that they might also meet that fate, they finally couldn't withstand the pressure.

The two Crimson Fire Red Apes prostrated themselves at Su Luo's feet, nodding helplessly.

"Woo-roo-roo!"

"Su Luo, they agreed," Su Tong said.

Upon hearing this, the gloom on Su Luo's face instantly vanished, and he laughed loudly: "Hahahaha! Good, good, it seems you two are still very wise."

"Then it's happily decided; supply me with a batch of fruit wine every month, and I'll help you deal with opponents you can't handle."

"Here's to a pleasant cooperation!" Su Luo said with a smile, patting the shoulders of the two Crimson Fire Red Apes.

The two Crimson Fire Red Apes forced a smile uglier than crying, trying to accommodate Su Luo. They had no choice; if they didn't, their lives wouldn't be safe.

The others saw Su Luo's domineering side for the first time and couldn't help but find it somewhat novel.

After all, Su Luo had always been very gentle in front of them, never having been so aggressive.

"Too naughty, but it's not bad either," Liu Yunyi said, raising her hand to cover her mouth and chuckle softly, then looked at Shen Huaiyue and Shen Huaiyu, seeking their opinions.

They naturally nodded without hesitation, fully agreeing with Liu Yunyi's words.

Bad boys get the girls.

Moreover, this was a matter involving immense benefits.

They felt that not using force to compel the Crimson Fire Red Ape clan to brew wine for them was already benevolent and righteous.

At this moment, Li Qingtian and the other three exchanged glances, and none of them felt that Su Luo's actions were inappropriate.

If it were them, facing such enormous benefits, they would also act this way.
