Chapter 2164 Another Setback!
“Is it so bitter?”
Some townspeople, however, remained unconvinced, as some of them already suspected that Lin Tianhao's impending power-up was related to the monster's flesh and blood.
In order to become stronger, they were all prepared to give it their all.
One by one, the townspeople began to endure the pain and frantically eat meat, but very few could actually swallow it.
"No, how can it taste so bad? I feel like even if I starve for two days, I probably still wouldn't be able to eat the flesh and blood of these undead monsters."
Some townspeople shook their heads repeatedly; in fact, most townspeople did the same.
But there were still a few ruthless individuals who managed to devour the flesh and blood of the undead monster.
"It seems...it seems to be working a little bit. I feel a warm current in my body, and I feel more energetic."
Lin Tianhao's eyes lit up. He had just eaten it too, but he hadn't felt any changes. This was probably because his physique was already very strong, so he could hardly improve it.
However, ordinary townspeople can clearly feel the changes.
"Really? I'll give it my all to become stronger!!"
These townspeople really started to fight back; several who had just vomited forced themselves to swallow it back down.
Many of them couldn't swallow it, not only because it was bitter, but more importantly because they felt it was unnecessary to force themselves to eat something that wasn't bitter. Some even had a psychological aversion to the monster's flesh and blood, fearing that eating such bitter flesh and blood would not only be useless but would also cause poisoning or diarrhea.
But now that some people have eaten the monster's flesh and blood and gained amplification, they have psychologically accepted the monster's flesh and blood.
One by one, the townspeople began to force themselves to swallow the bitter taste.
"Haha, it really works! My spirits are better, and my strength has slightly increased. This is so great!"
"Don't fight over it, I want more! This is so great, I want to eat, eat, eat!"
……
Originally, the townspeople were very disgusted with the monster's flesh and blood, but now they all became very excited and began to eat it frantically.
Seeing how quickly they ate, Lin Tianhao gave a briefing and then entered the gray fog again to catch new undead monsters.
Soon, the second, the third, the fourth, one after another, the undead monsters were captured by Lin Tianhao.
These townspeople are like gluttons; each of them can eat twenty or thirty pounds of flesh and blood, making them all incredibly strong.
As Lin Tianhao observed the changes in the townspeople's bodies, a subtle shift occurred in his expression. This feeling was just as strange as when he first saw them.
This strange feeling even made Lin Tianhao feel somewhat uncomfortable.
"Has something else gone wrong?"
Lin Tianhao's expression was somewhat solemn.
"Mayor, you are amazing! I feel like I have inexhaustible energy, but I'm still so hungry. Let's go out and catch these monsters together with you, Mayor."
"Yes, Mayor, please take us with you. We're all very powerful now, and we can help you hunt monsters."
"Let's go, let's go! My greatsword is itching for a bite, I have to go and devour these monsters."
……
Lin Tianhao took a deep breath. In the current situation, he himself couldn't pinpoint exactly what the problem was.
As things stand, he doesn't have any better options and can only take it one step at a time.
Lin Tianhao led the townspeople into the gray fog, and then...
What Lin Tianhao found terrifying happened.
"Ouch, my stomach hurts so much."
A villager clutched his stomach and cried out in pain. Then, Lin Tianhao saw the villager's stomach swell up, and a monster ran out of the villager's stomach.
at the same time.
The townspeople who had become stronger after eating the monster also returned to their original appearance at a visible speed.
It wasn't just this one resident; several others also had their stomachs ruptured.
"The monsters' ability to regenerate remains unchanged. The townspeople who have consumed the most monster flesh will still have the monsters inside them resurrected after entering the gray fog, causing their bodies to burst."
"And the townspeople who don't eat much will also lose the power they gain, just like the characteristics of undead monsters themselves."
Lin Tianhao sighed; this situation had led them into another dead end.
He really didn't want to accept this outcome; the opportunity he had finally found had vanished just like that.
Fortunately, the number of townspeople who died this time was not large, which served as a reminder to Lin Tianhao that he still had room to maneuver.
The more these undead monsters eat, the hungrier they become. Although they appear to grow stronger, it's all just a pipe dream and not worth mentioning.
and so.
What exactly is the problem?
The fruit cannot be consumed for an extended period. After consuming the flesh and blood of monsters, the fruit will disappear upon entering the gray fog, and those who consume too much may even die.
Eat a full meal!!
This has become Lin Tianhao's biggest problem right now.
How can we ensure that these townspeople have enough to eat without causing any side effects?
It seems there isn't a better solution at the moment?
"Since there's no better way for the time being, let's try things little by little. We'll eventually come up with a solution."
Next.
Lin Tianhao tried cooking the fruit to eat, because according to Blue Star's experience, there are actually quite a few poisonous vegetables, but as long as they are cooked, most of the poisonous vegetables will become non-poisonous.
This is what Lin Tianhao wants to do now.
When the fruit is cooked, it smells strange and tastes odd.
"Mayor, why are you cooking these fruits out of the blue?"
"Yes, these fruits taste terrible after being cooked; they have no sweetness at all."
……
Having just experienced the undead monster, the townspeople now resist these strange-smelling fruits.
“These fruits are poisonous. I’m wondering if they will become non-poisonous after being cooked,” Lin Tianhao said.
Upon hearing Lin Tianhao's words, the townspeople's expressions changed drastically.
"What? This fruit is poisonous, but we've been eating it for so long and we haven't been poisoned yet?"
"These fruits are so sweet, the old and the young all say they are good. Mayor, are you sure you're not mistaken? These fruits look completely non-toxic."
"Mayor, I feel like you've been acting a bit strange lately. Are you... still our mayor? Could it be that you've been possessed by a monster?"
"What are you saying? The mayor is trying to find a way out for us. How can you think of him like that?"
……
Lin Tianhao frowned. Some townspeople were already starting to doubt him, and if he made similar attempts again, even more people would become suspicious.
"These fruits contain chronic toxins. Haven't you noticed that you've become somewhat different from before?"
