God-level repair system

The mission given from above was for the Four Heavenly Kings to lead a team to protect Professor Wu Hanqiu as he approached the Flame Tree.

As for the number of people, there is no limit, but more is definitely not better.

Therefore, the four of them basically chose awakened individuals with fire and water elemental abilities.

Fire-type awakeners possess fire immunity, making them less afraid of fire than ordinary people.

Those awakened by water can use water to fight against fire, making them indispensable.

The people An Luotong chose were all water-type awakeners, because among the four teams, she would be the one to protect Wu Hanqiu closely.

Just after she had selected six Awakened Ones, someone suddenly patted her on the shoulder from behind.

"Hey beautiful, are you hiring?"

An Luotong frowned at first, but then smiled upon hearing the voice.

"Chu Zhen? What are you doing here?"

"I did some quick calculations and figured you'd need me tonight, so I came."

"Tch! You're such a chatterbox." An Luotong rolled her eyes at him, but a smile played on her lips.

However, Chu Zhen's words and actions angered many people.

An Luotong is now a high-ranking figure in the league and a goddess to the whole nation. Who would dare to treat her so lightly?

A pat on the shoulder is intolerable.

"Damn it! Let go of that shoulder, or I'll chop off your groping hand!"

In the crowd, one of An Luotong's brainless fans roared angrily.

The terror of the Flame Tree is unimaginable.

Even An Luotong was unsure about this task.

But Chu Zhen's appearance made her feel much more at ease.

……

Low-level water-type awakened individuals can only release simple water spheres into the air to lower the surrounding temperature.

However, it seems to have been of no use.

The closer you get to the giant fire tree, the higher the temperature becomes.

The sweat that just emerged from the pores evaporated instantly.

The sweltering air made it difficult to breathe.

The four Heavenly Kings each led a team, protecting Wu Hanqiu in the middle.

Wu Hanqiu had two assistants beside him, who were clearly holding some documents and constantly observing the giant fire tree.

“Professor, if you find it unbearable, please tell us immediately,” An Luotong said.

"I'm fine." Wu Hanqiu is quite old, so his resistance to high temperatures is naturally not as good as that of young people.

However, driven by his desire to know exactly what this giant tree of flames was, he gritted his teeth and approached it step by step.

"System, can you perform the detection now?" Chu Zhenxin asked.

At this moment, they were only five kilometers away from the giant flaming tree, and even with his Tri-Element Demon Body, he was unbearably hot.

"Beep! Testing in progress, please wait..."

From Chu Zhen's perspective, a virtual screen appears before her eyes.

"Beep! Test complete!"

"This tree is an ancient, divine tree... the parasol tree!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Zhen was greatly surprised.

Wutong (梧桐)?

No birds dare to perch on the parasol tree, for they avoid the phoenix.

Look at the flames dancing on that giant tree, don't they look just like a phoenix?

"Does the phoenix really exist?" Chu Zhen wondered to himself.

He continued to review the data detected by the system.

"The sacred parasol tree existed in the ancient times. Because the phoenix has lived and roosted here for many years, it has left behind the aura of the phoenix."

“The divine tree bears one divine fruit every hundred years. Before each fruiting, the branches and leaves of the divine tree turn into flames and burn for three days.”

After reading this information, Chu Zhen was extremely excited.

"The Divine Fruit of the Wutong Tree?"

His cultivation speed is slow now, and he needs the assistance of spiritual medicine.

The flames burning on the sacred parasol tree foreshadowed the imminent formation of the divine fruit; how could he not be excited?

Just then, Wu Hanqiu suddenly exclaimed, "It's a phoenix tree, the legendary phoenix tree!"

Everyone was astonished upon hearing this.

Chu Zhen frowned, wondering if this old man could even deduce the divine fruit.

Clearly, Wu Hanqiu does not yet have this ability.

He only knew of the existence of the Wutong Divine Tree through some ancient records, but the matter of the divine fruit might not have been recorded in those records.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Wu Hanqiu's eyes rolled back and he fainted.

"Oh no, Professor Wu has fainted!" an assistant shouted.

"Get out of here! Stay away from the sacred parasol tree!"

Let alone an old man, even the awakened ones would find it difficult to withstand this high temperature.

So they quickly sent Professor Wu back, and a medical team came to his aid.

Fortunately, there was no danger to his life; he was just dehydrated and passed out, and was immediately sent back to Donghai City.

The news of the sacred parasol tree quickly spread like wildfire among the crowd.

Many people gazed at this sacred tree, filled with emotion.

However, the divine tree is burning with extremely high temperatures, making it impossible to get close at present.

The military and the Awakening Alliance had no choice but to temporarily withdraw, leaving a small team to keep watch.

Chu Zhen did not return to Donghai City with the main force, but instead secretly left the army.

He must pick the divine fruit the moment the flames on the Wutong Divine Tree disappear, otherwise someone else will get there first, and he will suffer a great loss.

However, the next day...

He discovered that wild beasts were beginning to appear one after another around the sacred parasol tree.

"Damn! Looks like there's a lot of competition!"

Clearly, these wild beasts were also after the Wutong Divine Fruit.

Chu Zhen concealed his aura and hid in the mountains, trying to keep a low profile.

However, there are always some blind wild beasts that come looking for trouble, and he won't show any mercy then.

He hasn't seen any high-level wild beasts yet, but just killing low-level and mid-level wild beasts has increased his energy value to 3689 points.

However, the teams that stayed behind to observe the sacred parasol tree were out of luck.

Firstly, they outnumbered the beasts and were a large target. Under the siege of the wild beasts, they did not last long before being devoured until nothing was left, not even bones.

The system's data indicates that the sacred parasol tree will burn for three days in a massive fire.

However, this three days is just an approximate time and could never be the standard 72 hours.

Until the early morning of the fourth day.

Finally, the flames on the sacred parasol tree began to diminish.

Many wild beasts are waiting for their chance to strike. Once the flames die down, they will swarm in and frantically fight for the divine fruit.

"Want to compete with me for the Divine Fruit? Have you even considered the jungle item I'm holding?"

Chu Zhen clenched his fist in the air, and the Hunting Blade appeared.

All weapons modified by the system can be stored in the system and can be obtained at any time when needed.

"Da da da……"

A dozen helicopters appeared in the sky.

In addition, tanks and armored vehicles were approaching from a distance.

"The army from Donghai City and the Awakening Alliance are here again?" Chu Zhen's face darkened.

Although Wu Hanqiu was learned and talented, he certainly did not know about the existence of the Wutong Divine Fruit.

The reason why the army and awakened forces came was mostly because of the large number of wild beasts that appeared near the divine tree.

In fact, the Awakening Alliance had obtained a spiritual medicine in an ancient ruin before this.

Although the value of that elixir was not on the same level as the Wutong Divine Fruit, at least they gained some experience.

Wherever a large number of wild beasts suddenly appear in ancient ruins, there will surely be rare and precious treasures born there.

Therefore, they don't need to know about the existence of the Wutong Divine Fruit; they only need to know that rare and precious materials are born here.

Dawn breaks on the eastern horizon.

At this moment, the flames on the sacred parasol tree finally went out completely.

Only one small fruit, in the morning light, radiated a crimson glow, dazzling and eye-catching.

That is the Wutong Divine Fruit.

"Roar……"

"Ow..."

Many wild beasts rushed forward like madmen, and as far as the eye could see, their numbers reached over a thousand, a terrifying sight.

"Rumble..."

The heavy footsteps seemed to shake the earth.

"boom!"

"boom!"

Not far away, tanks and armored vehicles were bombarding the beast horde.

However, this still could not stop the advance of the wild beasts.

Some wild beasts even started tearing each other apart while running.

Standing on high ground, Chu Zhen looked at all of this and couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

The more competitors you have, the lower your chances of getting the divine fruit.

However, being alone in this chaos is not necessarily a disadvantage.
