Tap Tycoon System! - Chapter 99
A low grade Null Fruit was not enough for Nathan to upgrade his physique to the next level.
But even if that’s the case, he can still feel that there was a significant increase of power inside him.
“It feels like I’ll only need 1 or 2 more Null Fruit to break through to the next level.” He enthusiastically said, his eyes shining brightly.
Looking at the other Null Fruit on his hand, Nathan deliberated whether he should use it to improve his physique or not.
In the end, he decided against it.
“I can just exchange for more of this as long as I have Null Energy Stones so there’s no hurry.”
“For now, I should try it out on my Spirit Attribute to see its effect on it.”
With that thought in mind, Nathan took a bite on the other Null fruit and once again experienced euphoria.
This time, it felt like something deep within him was being massaged. He also felt like his mind was a tiny bit clearer than before.
Soon after, the feeling subsided.
“Hoo~ That felt good.” He said, reminiscing of the feeling.
Although it did not last long, probably not even a second, Nathan can’t help but consider it as one of the most comfortable feelings in life.
Then he tried feeling the increase in his spirit.
“Hmm, there was almost no change, huh. I guess that’s not a surprise since my spirit is already 23.” He said as he took a glance at his status.
[Physique: 10 (Tier 1) | Spirit: 23 (Tier 2)]
Putting his hand on his chin, he said, “Since the spirit is directly related to the soul talent, all I need to do to upgrade my Soul Talent is increase my spirit.”
When he thought of that, a small smile crept up his lips.
He turned his gaze to the Miracle Tree, and asked, “Since there’s a low grade Null Fruit, there should be an intermediate and high grade counterpart, right?”
The Miracle Tree who’s been only watching him all this time, replied, {That is right.}
“Then tell me how many Null Energy Stones I need for those!”
The Tree then told him what he wanted to know.
To make 1 intermediate grade Null Fruit, it needs 100 thousand Null Energy Stones.
As for the high grade Null Fruit, it needs a whooping 1 million Null Energy Stones!
After hearing those numbers, Nathan was not discouraged.
Because for him, getting Null Energy Stones was as easy as breathing!
Full of fighting spirit, Nathan said, “Alright, I won’t be sleeping tonight!”
He sat down on the field of grass, with his back against the Tree, leaning on it, Nathan started tapping on his phone with full focus.
Time passed by with Nathan tapping on his phone, and soon the sun in the dimensional space started to rise.
When the clock hits 6 o’clock, Nathan finally stops.
After sitting there for hours, unmoving, Nathan felt that his body felt a little stiff.
So, he started stretching.
*Crack!*
“Ugh, that hits the spot.” He said, full of comfort.
Then he looked back on his phone, a proud smile slowly formed on his lips.
3,686,400 Null Energy Stones.
That is the result of his 5 hours grind, without any sleep.
“Heh, hard work really pays off.” He shamelessly said, acting as if he did something difficult.
“Now It’s time to see the fruits of my labor!”
He chuckled as he stood up, then he went near the hole on the Miracle Tree that has been silent for a long time now.
An hour after Nathan started his grind for Null Stones, the Tree told him that it will be going back to sleep to continue recovering its strength.
Not minding that, Nathan positioned his hand in front of the hole and without hesitation, poured the Null Energy Stones that he accumulated.
Like a person in love that saw their other half, a wide smile bloomed on his face as he watched the fruit start to appear on the branch of the Tree.
“All of this will bring my power to another level.” He muttered.
….
30 minutes later, Nathan left the dimensional space and was back in his room
On his arms is a bunch of red fruits.
All of that are, of course, Null Fruits.
Nathan placed the fruits on the bed and stood beside it, just looking at it all.
Nodding his head in satisfaction, he said, “Uhuh, this looks good. With the Null Energy Stones that I have, I was able to get 2 high grades, 10 intermediate grades, and 6 low grade Null Fruits.”
At this time, he felt a little itchy.
“Ah, I’ve been sitting on the ground for a long time. I should go and take a shower first.”
Hurriedly, he went to the bathroom and took a quick shower before coming back to his room.
“Nice, now I feel good. Now, onto the main event!”
Saying that, Nathan picked up a Null Fruit of intermediate grade from his bed.
Since as the grade of the Null fruit becomes higher, the red color in it also becomes brighter and brighter.
That is why Nathan doesn’t have any problem identifying which grade is each fruit.
With a Fruit in hand, Nathan thought of improving his physique then started eating without hesitation!
Soon, Nathan was overwhelmed by the energy and comfort that the Null Fruit brought him that he unconsciously let out a sound.
“Ugh~”
Coincidentally, Natalie, who just woke up, came out of her room, rubbing her eyes, still feeling sleepy.
Since her room and Nathan’s room are not far from each other, she inevitably heard the sound coming out of Nathan’s room.
Immediately, her body froze on the spot as the moaning entered her ears.
‘I-Is that brother?’ she thought,
Slowly turning her head in that direction, she confirmed that the sound was indeed coming from Nathan’s room.
Natalie’s face became awkward.
After a while, she shook her head and took a deep breath.
