Chapter 1852: Protecting Food

Angel crossed the dream bridge and returned to reality from the wilderness of dreams.

When his thoughts were under control again, he felt a faint light and shadow shaking in front of him.

Angel opened his eyes in a daze, but saw that a tall yellow-leaf oak tree had grown beside him at some point. The warm sunlight penetrated the dense leaves and cast a mottled shade on his face.

The light and shadow shaking he felt before was the light spots dancing when the leaves were blown by the wind.

When did a tree grow? Angel sat up while yawning, still thinking about the origin of the tree in his mind.

"My sun lounger, is it comfortable to sleep?" A lazy female voice sounded from beside him.

Angel turned around and saw Greya sitting on the window sill of the magic hut, looking at him with raised eyebrows.

At this time, Greya had returned to her original state from the previous exaggerated image of the meat mountain demon king. Obviously, her communication with Lydia had ended.

"It's quite comfortable." Angel said casually, and then changed the topic: "How did you talk with Lydia?"

Greya was about to speak, and suddenly, a gust of wind flashed over her head.

Angel looked up and saw a gray shadow falling from the tree and flying towards him.

Angel did not dodge or evade, and even stretched out his hand. When the rapid light and shadow calmed down, Toby stood in Angel's palm. Toby was the gray shadow that flew over.

Angel was about to help Toby smooth his fur, but he didn't expect that Toby didn't plan to stay in his palm for long. He took out a big black brick from the snow-containing feathers and threw it into Angel's palm. Then Toby rushed into the magic hut without stopping.

Angel was stunned for a moment, and when he looked closely, he found that Toby was holding a small dried fish in the magic hut and tasting it beautifully.

"No wonder you are so impatient." Angel laughed and focused on the thing Toby left behind.

Before, he thought it was a big black brick, but after a closer look, he found that there were many wood whiskers growing on this "brick", and these wood whiskers were intertwined like a net. At the same time, it exuded a faint fragrance.

"This is the fruit of the glutinous bud tree. Toby specifically asked me to create it and took the initiative to help you pick it." When Angel was wondering, Greya next to him explained his doubts for him.

"Glutinous bud tree? You created it?" Angel looked at the tall tree next to him, and then looked at Greya, "A delicacy like the milk fruit tree?"

Greya nodded without comment: "Yes, don't you want to try it? This is picked by Toby himself for you."

Angel was not hungry, but thinking that this was Toby's intention, he didn't want to disappoint him. After thinking about it, he cut the glutinous bud tree fruit in half.

As the "brick" was cut, the soft white flesh inside was immediately exposed, and the taste was still light and fragrant.

Angel: "Eat it directly?"

"Yes, the flesh inside can be eaten." While Graya was answering, Angel also saw Toby flying to the window sill, chirping a few times, as if urging Angel to eat quickly.

Angel did not doubt him, and used his mental power to tear a small piece of flesh from the fruit and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

Chewed it twice... It was not bad, but a little bland. The taste was a bit like a tasteless banana, soft and sticky.

As soon as Angel finished eating, he heard Toby's cheers and chirps. Looking back, he saw Toby buried his head in a plate of small dried fish with a rich fragrance, happily feasting on it.

Angel didn't understand why Toby was so happy. When he was about to say something, Toby suddenly came to Angel with a small dried fish in his mouth and motioned him to eat.

Angel looked at Toby in surprise. Toby was not so generous in the past. Usually, Toby ate ordinary dried fish and would not share it with him, not to mention that this was the dried fish made by Azaz.

Although he didn't understand what happened to Toby, Angel still showed a look of relief.

However, when Angel was about to taste the dried fish, his hand suddenly stopped.

How could he be so full? In fact, he was so full that he felt nauseous when he saw the food.

Angel put down the dried fish in his hand silently. Toby's eyes lit up, and he ran away with the dried fish in his mouth.

Angel looked at Graya suspiciously: "What's going on?" He always felt that his full stomach and Toby's series of weird actions were closely related.

Graya: "The effect of the glutinous bud tree fruit is that you won't feel hungry for at least a month. You won't feel full at ordinary times, but when you want to eat, you will feel full."

Angel: "...So?"

Graya shrugged: "Toby asked me to do this, and I don't know why. But I have a guess."

"Maybe he thought you would snatch the dried fish from it, so Toby decided to take the initiative and fill your stomach first."

Although Graya said it was a guess, Angel felt that this might be the truth...When Azaz was making dried fish for Toby before, Toby discovered him. At that time, Toby had no intention of coming out to see him. I think it was secretly on guard at that time, fearing that he would come to snatch the dried fish. In order to prevent him from having the opportunity to eat the dried fish, he even asked Graya to make a glutinous bud tree.

Angel now understands, no wonder Toby was so excited and cheering just now.

I thought it had changed before, but now I think it just thinks faster...

Listening to Toby's cheerful chirping in the magic hut, Angel felt helpless. Forget it, he didn't plan to compete with Toby for the dried fish anyway, although he was curious about what the dried fish made by Azaz tasted like.

Angel shook his head and stopped thinking about Toby, but returned to the previous question.

When Lydia was mentioned, Graya's expression became obviously gloomy: "The woman hasn't given a clear answer yet."

"No answer? Does Lydia want to go back on her word?" Angel frowned. When the parasite broke out in Night Demon City, Lydia promised that as long as Angel entered Night Demon City and rescued a living Moya, she would give Angel a fair trade opportunity.

Because at that time, Angel was just an apprentice, Lydia gave him a fair trade opportunity, which was the maximum concession.

So Angel agreed, and he did it in the end.

In the end, Lydia agreed that as long as he took out 3 million magic crystals, she would return the eyeless man to him.

Graya: "She hasn't changed her mind yet, but from what she said, it seems that she has something to ask you, so she has been unwilling to face the topic of the transaction."

"Talk to me?" Angel: "Then why don't I go and talk to her?"

Graya shook her head: "No, you have helped me a lot. Houston is my restaurant employee, and I will naturally be responsible for his safety. I have already made an agreement with her. When she arrives at the Savage Cave at the tea party, I will talk to her in person. If she dares to change her mind at that time..."

Graya narrowed her eyes: "I will let her know what the price of changing her mind will be."
