Chapter 286 "Human-Human Fruit - Mythical Beast"

When the three of them had almost finished eating, Tonino Carlo waved his hand lightly, and the servant who had been waiting on the side immediately came forward and took away the cutlery and plates.

After the servant left the room, Tonino Carlo looked at Chi Yao and Tonino Harvey and spoke.

"Okay, now let's talk about what you did underground and how you solved this ant plague."

Speaking of underground experiences, Tonino Harvey became much more excited and was the first to talk about his and Chi Yao's experiences in the mine.

"My second brother and I chose Johns' team to go down the mine together, and then we encountered various underground creatures."

Tonino Xavi mainly talked about everyone's specific experiences, while Chi Yao occasionally spoke up to provide additional details.

Tonino Xavi attributed most of the credit to Chi Yao, and Chi Yao would not refute it. If he refuted it in person now, he would appear guilty.

"Thanks to my second brother's guidance, we were able to take many shortcuts and it was much easier."

So Chi Yao chose to take a different approach. Since Tonino Xavi was praising himself and wanted to pass the credit to himself, he would praise Tonino Xavi in ​​return and pass the credit back to him.

"Big brother's role is also crucial. If it weren't for Big brother's sonic attack that paralyzed those fire ants, we probably wouldn't be so intact."

Just like that, Chi Yao and Tonino Xavi seemed to be "arguing", praising each other and taking credit for each other, as if that credit had become a huge trouble.

Tonino Carlo nodded slightly and listened to the two people's stories with interest. His attitude was somewhat intriguing.

When the "debate" between Chi Yao and Tonino Harvey came to an end, Tonino Carlo looked at Chi Yao and suddenly spoke.

"Gray Yao, I want to ask what your ability is? According to the information I got before and what you just said, what you ate is definitely not an ordinary nature-type devil fruit, right?"

After these words came out, Tonino Xavi couldn't help but look at Chi Yao. He was quite curious about Chi Yao's ability, but he had been holding back his desire to ask more questions.

"That's right, second brother. I've been curious for a long time. Now that everything has been resolved, you should tell me, right?"

Chi Yao looked embarrassed, gave a wry smile, and said helplessly.

"Since my father and elder brother have asked this, I will show my ugliness."

"The devil fruit I ate is called: Human-Human Fruit, Mythical Beast, Child of Nature Form."

"After eating it, I can use the power of nature, such as wind, thunder, earth, etc., but I can only use no more than three at a time."

"To some extent, the performance of this fruit is indeed very similar to that of the natural type, so when I was traveling overseas, I deliberately only used the power of lightning."

After hearing the explanation of the mythical beasts and Chi Yao, Tonino Carlo's expression changed, and he looked at Chi Yao and continued to ask.

"Where did you get this devil fruit?"

Chi Yao looked at Tonino Carlo, paying close attention to his expression, and gave his answer.

"I found this devil fruit together in the ancient ruins of the Grand Line."

Tonino Carlo nodded slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

"The ancient ruins?"

Tonino Carlo looked at Chi Yao's calm expression. He didn't care about his questioning at all. He seemed to be speaking frankly and confidently.

Tonino Carlo nodded and said without further questioning.

"That's it, Huiyao, you have a day off. Tomorrow, I will arrange for someone to send you to the World Government to take up your post."

"Harvey, take Huiyao to Lieyang Warehouse No. 2 to pick out the items you need and the best quality round sun stones. Your share has already been given to you."

Although Tonino Harvey was surprised, when he saw that Chi Yao and Tonino Carlo had calm expressions, as if they had already made an agreement, he knew that he could not change their decision.

Tonino Xavi said that there was not much he could do, but it would be no problem to help his brother a little.

"No problem, second brother, you can take as many Yuanyang stones as you want later!"

Tonino Carlo did not say anything to stop him, obviously agreeing with Tonino Xavi's statement.

Then Tonino Carlo stood up, his tone became a little colder, revealing a murderous intent.

"Harvey, I'll help you deal with Johns' team. They know too much."

"Subsequently, we will conduct underground development of the No. 6 ore vein in batches, block those special areas, and prohibit ordinary people from entering."

Tonino Xavi was stunned, his eyes a little confused.

"Father, you."

Tonino Carlo said firmly in his final words.

"Xavi, to be a king, you need enough 'determination' and your actions must be convincing enough. Their performance is enough to punish them with the death penalty."

Tonino Harvey glanced at Chi Yao and Tonino Carlo with a complicated expression and nodded.

"Father, I understand. Thank you for your teachings."

After Tonino Carlo left the room, looking at the sea of ​​clouds outside the window, Tonino Harvey felt a little melancholy, and he said to Chi Yao.

"Brother, I envy you for being able to pursue your dreams. I don't want to be the king, but as the eldest son, I have my responsibilities."

Chi Yao nodded slightly and comforted Tonino Harvey, who truly regarded him as a younger brother.

"Brother, Father's decision is also for our own good. Whether it is our abilities or the situation deep in the earth veins, if the news is leaked out, it will have a very bad impact on the kingdom."

Tonino Harvey pondered, then nodded in thought.

"I understand. This is a choice. I have to choose the one that is more important to the overall situation."

Seeing that Tonino Xavi had almost come to terms with it, Chi Yao changed the topic to something else.

While discussing, Chi Yao took a look at the rewards he had received.

[The Hunter has completed the small special plot event (Underground Mystery) and received the following rewards. ]

[You obtain 36.2% of the world's source. ]

[You obtain Soul Crystal (Medium) x3. ]

[You have obtained 5,000 contribution points to the Kingdom of Tyria, and you have opened the Kingdom of Tyria faction store. ]

[You have activated the "Ancient Civilization" camp (this is a hidden camp), and you have become the leader of this camp. ]

[Tip: Hunters can choose to hide their identity as members of the ancient civilization camp and continue to join other camps.]

The rewards for this plot event are quite good. Most of the origin of the world is obtained by exploring ancient ruins and knowing the truth of history, and there are also three soul crystals (middle).

More importantly, it triggered a hidden mission at the world mainline level for Chi Yao, and also granted him the status of leader of the hidden camp, the ancient civilization.

As for the contribution value, it is a necessity for Chi Yao to exchange for Yuanyang Stone later.
