Legend of the Pinnacle of Online Games

Chapter 126 Star Wish Butterfly (10K)

"What's the situation with Long Xiaochen?" Lin Hanchuan asked.

Half an hour has passed since Long Xiaochen left the weapons factory. He has almost arrived at the Dark Forest and obtained the bone powder.

"When I asked before, he had already arrived. After you came to the factory, I stopped asking." Cao Renjie pulled up the panel, opened the friend list, and was about to contact Long Xiaochen when his gaze drifted over his ID and then fixed on it.

After a while, he looked up at Lin Hanchuan and asked uncertainly, "Boss, if I remember correctly, Long Xiaochen used an experience book before and should have leveled up to level 13, right?"

"It's level 13!" Lin Hanchuan nodded, then subconsciously asked, "What's wrong?"

"He's currently showing level 12!" After receiving confirmation, Cao Renjie immediately opened the chat window and sent a message to Long Xiaochen.

Cao Renjie – “How did you get to level 12 already!?”

"Ahem! Something's happened!" - Long Xiaochen stood awkwardly in the Resurrection Square, looking at the crowd around him. He had just arrived when he received a message from Cao Renjie.

Cao Renjie – “Where’s the bone meal?”

"I saw it, but I haven't had time to take it yet!" - Long Xiaochen felt quite unlucky. He had just entered the Dark Forest and hadn't gone far when he encountered a level 100 forest giant bear and was smashed to pieces with a single slap.

Upon receiving the information, Cao Renjie turned to Lin Hanchuan and said, "Boss, something happened to Long Xiaochen. The bone powder is still there; we haven't taken it!"

"It's nothing!" Lin Hanchuan said nonchalantly. Since the matter had already happened, what he needed to do was get the bone powder as soon as possible, instead of blaming Long Xiaochen.

After all, the Dark Forest is a high-level map, and any monster he encounters could kill him instantly, so the probability of Long Xiaochen meeting an accident is quite high.

"Let's go! We'll go together!" Lin Hanchuan squatted down, picked up Xingchen, and said to Long Xiaoyue and Cao Renjie.

The Gray Forest is vast, and the density of rare and precious medicinal plants is quite high. Lin Hanchuan wants to take advantage of the large number of people to collect as many as possible.

Eat what you can, and bring back the remaining plants to plant in the spirit field.

Following behind, Long Xiaoyue reminded, "Captain, that one-time one-way teleportation array was temporarily set up by the Bone Demon. It will become ineffective after only a few uses due to the wear and tear of the inscriptions inside the array."

"If it needs to be repaired, it will require at least a master-level array master!"

Lin Hanchuan nodded and asked, "Is there enough for all of us to go this time?"

“That should be enough!” Long Xiaoyue replied.

"That's it!"

As Cao Renjie followed Lin Hanchuan out, he didn't forget to send a message to Long Xiaochen.

Cao Renjie – “You’re really bad at this!”

"My fault! My fault! Quickly tell the captain about this. The bone powder hasn't been refreshed by the system yet. We can still make it there in time." — Long Xiaochen took the initiative to admit his mistake. No matter the reason, if the goal wasn't achieved, it was his own fault.

Cao Renjie – “We’ve already moved on!”

……

……

After leaving the weapons factory, Lin Hanchuan and his group navigated the area with ease. Upon arriving at the teleportation array in the sewers, they quickly found it using the light emitted by the fluorescent stones.

A one-way teleportation array that can only teleport one person at a time.

Lin Hanchuan picked up an energy stone that had fallen from the sacrificial array on the ceiling and said, "I'll go first, you guys follow later!"

The moment he stepped onto the teleportation array, as the energy stone in his hand dissipated, a milky white light surged from the array and enveloped Lin Hanchuan.

next moment.

He came to the Gray Forest a second time.

The scene Lin Hanchuan was seeing at this moment was the one that had occurred before he left.

One after another, towering trees were cut in half by the divine power of a weak god, falling in swathes and forming a huge circular open area.

The area where the battle had taken place has now become scorched earth. Magma surges on the cracked ground, melting the roots of ancient trees into scarlet bronze veins. Streams of fire that occasionally burst open ignite the entire humus layer, burning the dark green moss into charred black glass with glittering gold spots.

Corrosive miasma creeped and spread along the ground, and the leaves of the giant fern curled into charcoal as they corroded, yet a ghostly blue fluorescence burst forth from deep within the veins of the leaves, exploding into bluish-purple flames the moment they touched the heat of the magma.

Lin Hanchuan walked forward and stood on the roots of a large, carbonized tree. Looking into the distance, he saw the bone dust left behind after the Bone Demon's death.

A clump of gray powder, like a small mound of earth, was piled up at the edge of the battle area.

In just over half an hour, a clump of vibrant green vegetation had grown along the edge of the bone meal, standing out starkly against the surrounding charred and orange environment.

Brush, brush, brush!!

Behind Lin Hanchuan.

Stars, Dragon Sky Moon, Cao Renjie.

They appeared one after another.

"Holy crap, what happened here?" Cao Renjie was shocked by the scene before him.

"A battle involving a dozen or so demons besieging my mentor, who is also the strongest mage in Wangyue City. By the way, let me give you a reference on the combat strength of the top demons currently hidden in Wangyue City." Lin Hanchuan turned around and said a few words, then looked at Bone Powder, who was separated from him by a section of the battle's center. He called Xingchen over and gave her instructions.

"Xingchen, come with me to get bone powder. You two split up. There are many rare medicinal plants in the Gray Forest. Once you find them, uproot them and take them with you."

"My mentor, who helped me change jobs, gave me a spiritual field. We'll start mass-producing these rare medicinal plants."

"Sending spirit fields? That's wonderful!!" Cao Renjie was envious.

Lin Hanchuan said modestly, "Besides the spirit field, there is another rare item!"

Morris was truly speechless when it came to him.

They'll give you anything they can get, without batting an eye.

A rare item and a spiritual field were given to him without hesitation.

This time, it's not just Cao Renjie.

Long Xiaoyue also cast an envious glance at her.

Having played the game for so long and heard a lot of information from various sources, I've never heard of any job-changing teacher being so generous.

"Don't be envious. You only truly get what you earn through your own hard work," Lin Hanchuan urged.

"Hurry up, we're the first players to enter the Dark Forest, so let's take as many good items as we can."

After saying that, Lin Hanchuan led Xingchen around the center of the battle, where corrosive venom and magma still existed, and headed straight for the bone powder left behind by the Bone Demon.

After pulling out the weeds that were growing rampant around the bone meal, Lin Hanchuan used the system to check the quality of the bone meal.

【bone meal】

Quality: Premium

In planting, it can be used as fertilizer to greatly improve the growth rate of plants, and it can also be used as a raw material for some special agents.

Note: Premium quality bone meal can instantly bring rare and lower-grade medicinal plants to maturity, and can significantly increase the growth rate of holy and divine-grade medicinal plants.

"It's actually top grade! The quality is even higher than the top grade I imagined." Lin Hanchuan took out a prepared box from his spatial ring and poured handfuls of bone powder into it.

They were very careful, afraid of spilling even a little bit.

As one of the pillar industries of top guilds, the fertilizer needed for the growth of medicinal plants is a major issue. Under normal circumstances, they will regularly form a team to go to planes like Bone Abyss to farm skeleton monsters and obtain bone powder.

Lin Hanchuan had done this kind of thing several times in his previous life.

However, as a skilled player with a combat power of around 10,000, he did not go to the Bone Abyss with the main force. Instead, he formed a temporary team with several skilled players from his guild, also known as the Bone Powder Farming Team, to go to the Abyss to find demons like Bone Demon and Eight Bones that could produce high-quality bone powder.

Bone meal of this grade, which can instantly mature rare and precious medicinal plants, is usually hard to find even in a single expedition.

This is the main reason why Lin Hanchuan has been unable to forget the bone powder that the Bone Demon dropped ever since he saw it.

This box is full.

At its peak, it was worth 50 gold coins!
Price but no market!

Put away the box full of bone meal.

There were still some remnants on the ground.

Without much thought, Lin Hanchuan took out another box and this time put the soil and bone powder inside.

call! !

Lin Hanchuan breathed a sigh of relief after securing the money.

Then, following the coordinates they had noted, they dug up the medicinal plants that had already been harvested, roots and all.

There are thirteen trees in total.

Long Xiaoyue and her group also made some gains.

Shared via the [Heavenly Path Squad Chat Group].

Long Xiaoyue: "We dug up a Three Lives Tree. The fruit is still hanging there, but it's not ripe yet!"

Cao Renjie: "Guess what I got? A two-colored flower, black and white, that can increase resilience by eating it!"

……

A message comes in every now and then.

Each time, there are different discoveries.

After Lin Hanchuan had Xingchen pray for him to gain "soul perception," which increased his ability to foresee danger, he took Xingchen and chose a dense forest in a different direction from theirs, and plunged into it.

As Lin Hanchuan moved further away from the previous battle area, his surroundings were once again filled with towering trees that reached into the clouds. The sunlight was broken into small, coin-sized spots, and gloom became the dominant color of the gray forest at noon.

The ferns were taller than a person, their serrated leaves cutting through the damp air. Water droplets that had not yet evaporated fell on the tips of the leaves, refracting multiple halos of light. The fallen, decaying wood was covered with a velvety fungal carpet. Lin Hanchuan, with Xingchen in tow, walked carefully on it, observing their surroundings.

Without any "treasure hunting" skills, Lin Hanchuan could only rely on his naked eyes to find the medicinal plants hidden in the dense jungle.

The canopy reverberated with the vibrations of monkey-like monsters swinging through the branches, and the sound of dry branches breaking startled the fireflies that filled the trees. Lin Hanchuan had to hold his breath and concentrate, but upon closer inspection, he found that they were just scales scattered by low-level insect-like monsters.

Milky white mist rises from the ground, and the rich, sweet and pungent aroma brewed from millennia-old fallen leaves seeps into every pore. The rotten honey fragrance and the bitter scent of newly grown moss battle in the nasal cavity.

As Lin Hanchuan walked from one end of the giant rotten log to the other, he finally made a discovery.

The damp moss cradled a six-petaled flower, as thin as a cicada's wing, each petal shimmering with a pale white luster in the rising mist.

"White Mist Flower!"

Lin Hanchuan strode forward and looked down to examine the flower that seemed to be blooming in the morning mist.

【White Mist Flower】

Quality: Six-Star Rare Treasure

A plant that lives in dark, damp environments filled with water elemental magic. Its white flowers can be eaten raw, increasing spell resistance by 30 points. Players specializing in water-related professions can gain an additional 200 mana and 5 intelligence after consuming it. It can also be used as an ingredient in potion making.

Note: Can only be eaten once.

The information about the white mist flower was quickly skimmed over.

White Mist Flower is clearly meant for players with water-related professions to maximize its effectiveness.

But for Lin Hanchuan, it doesn't matter who eats it or not; what matters is that what he eats improves his attributes.

Lin Hanchuan picked it and ate it. As soon as the flower entered his mouth, a light mist burst out. It was very crispy, like potato chips, and had a light, refreshing taste.

"Ding! Congratulations! You have successfully consumed a 'White Mist Flower,' increasing your spell defense by 30!"

30 points of spell defense may not seem like much, and it might even feel like it's better than nothing, but it's better than nothing. Besides, every little bit counts. There are also many medicinal herbs and plants here. Eating a few more will boost your combat power much faster than leveling up.

After eating, peel it off.

Lin Hanchuan took out a shovel he had taken from the weapons factory and began digging around the roots of the white mist flower.

"Brother Huang, do you want this plant?"

The first time he saw Lin Hanchuan devour the medicinal plants, he pointed at the white mist flower and asked.

"Hmm!!" Lin Hanchuan didn't even look up, still busy. This white mist flower plant could be planted in the spirit field for continuous cultivation.

After sprinkling premium-quality bone meal, another flower will be harvested in a short time.

"Oh!!" Xingchen seemed to understand what Lin Hanchuan was going to do, then stood up, put her hands together, and closed her eyes.

Lin Hanchuan seemed to have sensed something, and stopped digging for the white mist flower. She looked up at the stars, where layers of pale golden starlight gathered around her, forming a nebula that enveloped her palm.

Xingchen opened her eyes, clasped her hands together in a cupping gesture, lowered her head to her wrist, puffed out her cheeks, and gently blew.

Lin Hanchuan saw transparent butterflies, each the size of a little finger, flying out one by one, each radiating starlight and fluttering around the stars.

"what is this?"

Having spent both lifetimes immersed in the descent, Lin Hanchuan believed he had a good understanding of the creatures and plants in the descent. However, when he saw these transparent butterflies in front of him, he had no memory of them whatsoever.

Just as Lin Hanchuan was about to try to check through the system, Xingchen's voice rang out.

"These are Wishing Butterflies. I can summon them through prayer, and they will help you fulfill some very, very small wishes!"

Lin Hanchuan gazed at the stars.

After this upgrade, the ability of the stars to make wishes has been greatly enhanced. Star-wish creatures that only exist in legends and have been seen by few people can now be summoned.

Xingchen: "Brother Huang, if you want to find that kind of flower, you can talk to them. They should be able to help."

As Xingchen spoke, she extended a finger, and a wishing butterfly that had been fluttering around landed on her slender fingertip.

Xingchen stood on tiptoe and tried her best to bring the finger with the Star Wish Butterfly on it to Lin Hanchuan.

"Brother Huang, just make a wish on it, and its kind will hear it."

"Okay!" Lin Hanchuan squatted down, looked at the Star Wish Butterfly with its wings spread, and said, "Help me find some glowing plants or stones in this forest!"

Lin Hanchuan was making a wish for the first time and didn't quite understand the specific wishing mechanism. He was afraid that these Star Wish Butterflies wouldn't understand what kind of medicinal plants were above the rare treasure level, so he simplified it as much as possible, as long as they could glow.

As we all know, whether it's a plant or a stone, if it can emit light, then it must have something special about it.

Most plants of rare or extraordinary quality emit light, such as the white mist flower that I just ate.

Whether the Star Wish Butterfly heard clearly or not, it took off and flew behind Lin Hanchuan after he finished speaking. The remaining hundreds and thousands of Star Wish Butterflies also stopped flying around the stars and flew off in all directions as if they had received instructions.

After they all disappeared, the environment around Lin Hanchuan once again became dark.

"What do we need to do next?" Lin Hanchuan asked Xingchen, looking down at him.

Xingchen replied, "We just need to wait here!"

“Once they find them, they will come back and tell us where those glowing stones and plants are.”

"Just wait, okay?" Lin Hanchuan nodded, plucked a fern leaf, laid it flat on the ground next to a tree that would take more than ten people to encircle, and sat down directly.

The stars were right next to Lin Hanchuan.

The two of them stood with their backs against the big tree, looking up at the huge canopy that had split into a kaleidoscope, with wisps of white clouds coming and going in the lens of the azure film.

Every now and then, a dark shadow would flash by.

Some are big and some are small.

They momentarily obscured the lens, plunging the view into darkness.

It flashed by in an instant, causing the vibrant colors to be reflected back into the pupils.

A breeze blew, the treetops swayed, the sky seemed to move, as if the whole world was moving with his breath. Lin Hanchuan closed his eyes and felt that he was the heart of this world at that moment.

In the quiet surroundings, there were occasional rustling sounds. In Lin Hanchuan's soul perception, these were small creatures moving through the jungle, sometimes playing and chasing each other, sometimes racing against time.

Lin Hanchuan gradually calmed down, narrowed his eyes for a moment, and opened the chat group.
No one is speaking in the "[Grow Bigger and Stronger Chat Group]" anymore.

The [Heavenly Path Squad Chat Group] has always been very lively.

Three minutes ago, Cao Renjie sent a message indicating that he was returning to the city.

Cao Renjie: "This time I really stepped in dog poop. When I was picking a three-star rare flower, I was targeted by a level 50 venomous snake, which sent me back to the city in one bite!"

"Fortunately, the harvest this time was quite good. We got nine kinds of rare medicinal plants and five kinds of exotic plants!"

Long Xiaochen, who had been lurking in the group for a while, finally showed up.

Long Xiaochen: "Brother Jie, this harvest is already very good! Even dying once is definitely a huge profit!"

"@Long Xiaoyue, Xiaoyue, how's the situation on your end?"

Long Xiaoyue: "Three rare types and eight extraordinary types!"

Seeing Long Xiaoyue and Cao Renjie's gains, Long Xiaochen quickened his pace from Resurrection Square to the West Third District sewers. He was unwilling to give up and wanted to go again to salvage his reputation.

With his jungle pet, he has a greater advantage than others in finding rare and precious medicinal plants in the dark forest.

As for the issue of returning to the city at that time...

It would be better to die once!
Living is hard, but choosing death is even easier.

In places like the Dark Forest, you can just shout and dozens or even hundreds of monsters will come running, vying to send you back to town.

While on his way, Long Xiaochen didn't forget to reply to the message: "As expected of my sister, awesome!!"

"@Lin Hanchuan, Captain, what about you?"

Lin Hanchuan: "I'm lying flat."

The tranquility under the big tree for just over ten minutes calmed Lin Hanchuan's mindset considerably, allowing him to understand the contentment of those purely casual players who weren't focused on leveling up.

Long Xiaochen: "?"

Cao Renjie: "??"

Long Xiaoyue: "???"

Lin Hanchuan smiled at his teammate's three questions and explained, "After Xingchen was upgraded, her wishing ability was greatly improved. Now she can summon star-wish creatures through wishing."

"She summoned a swarm of Wishing Star Butterflies for me. I made a wish to them, and they are now helping me find glowing plants and stones in the Dark Forest."

"Now we'll wait here for those wishing butterflies to come back."

Cao Renjie: "I'm so envious!! Your job change mentor is the strongest mage in Wangyue City, giving you rare items and spirit fields. Now, the Star Wish skill has summoned the Star Wish Butterfly to help you find medicinal herbs. Boss, I, Cao Renjie, am genuinely envious!" Long Xiaochen: "What!?? The captain has another rare item? Three now, three already!! How are we ordinary players supposed to survive?!"

"Captain, could you ask our master if he needs any pendants? You could just hang one on me!"

Long Xiaoyue, who usually doesn't like to chime in, couldn't help but speak up: "Captain! I'm envious too!"

Lin Hanchuan: "I'm just reaping what I sow..."

Cao Renjie: "..."

Long Xiaochen: "..."

Long Xiaoyue: "..."

……

……

We chatted for a while, and then waited a bit longer.

It wasn't until Long Xiaoyue was sent back to the city by a giant forest wolf with her harvest of "5 rare medicinal plants, 9 exotic medicinal plants, and a 5-star exotic ore" that Lin Hanchuan's side made any move.

A wishing butterfly flew back.

However, it simply hovered in front of Lin Hanchuan without moving, and the system did not provide any relevant information or prompts.

Long Xiaochen looked up at the stars.

Star replied, "It's waiting for the other Wishing Butterflies to return."

As they were talking, another one flew back.

One after another, they flew back from all directions.

Hundreds and thousands of Wishing Butterflies hovered vertically in mid-air, motionless.

Just as Lin Hanchuan was looking puzzled, the Star Wish Butterflies suddenly stirred.

They fluttered their wings in unison, and starlight, like thousands of golden dust particles, fell from the wings of the Star Wish Butterflies, slowly condensing in mid-air like pixels to form a giant vertical map, like a brocade draped down by the god of starlight, slowly unfolding before Lin Hanchuan's eyes.

When the giant map was completed, the Star Wish Butterflies transformed into streaks of bright starlight, like shooting stars streaking across the summer sky, falling to different locations on the map.

Giant trees, weeds, rivers, flowers... everything is meticulously detailed.

Lin Hanchuan's location was in the center of the map, an extremely bright spot, while around him were scattered one bright spot after another.

Those were all glowing plants or minerals that the Star Wish Butterflies found according to Lin Hanchuan's requirements.

Almost a Star Wish Butterfly discovered one spot.

There are nearly 600 bright spots on the map, and when Lin Hanchuan looked closely, he could even see their specific coordinates.

If 80% of the glowing spots are rare or exotic medicinal plants, then there are nearly 500 such plants on this map!

Just then, a system notification sounded in Lin Hanchuan's mind!
"Ding! Congratulations! You have received a partial map of the distribution of rare and superior plant minerals in the Dark Forest, gifted by the Wishing Butterflies!"

As the system announcement faded.

The huge map in front of Lin Hanchuan transformed into a golden paper map, which automatically stacked up and landed in his hand.

[Approximate distribution map of rare and above plants and minerals in the Gray Forest] (partial)

Quality: Special Item

This map allows you to view the approximate distribution of rare and higher-grade plants and minerals within a specific area of ​​the Dark Forest.

Note: The state of the plants and minerals on the map is only as it is at the time of map creation. They are very likely to be taken away or destroyed later.

Friendly reminder: Once you have checked the item and taken it or confirmed that the item is no longer there, its glowing spot will automatically disappear from the map.

The information was quickly scanned.

Lin Hanchuan opened the map and found the nearest coordinate point, which was only about fifty meters away, on the path he had just walked.

Lin Hanchuan got up and took Xingchen with him.

Returning the way we came, after passing a huge piece of rotten wood, we found a mushroom emitting a pale purple glow among a thick layer of decaying leaves.

The mushrooms were very small, only about the size of a fingernail.

Even if it weren't covered by decaying leaves, a normal person walking past it wouldn't easily notice it.

【Crape Myrtle Mushroom】

Quality: Two-star rare item

A type of mushroom that grows in decaying wood or fallen leaves. It is highly poisonous. If you survive after ingesting it, your poison resistance will increase by 100. It can be used as the main ingredient in some poisons.

Note: Can only be eaten raw once.

Lin Hanchuan reached out and dug the crape myrtle mushroom out by the roots. Looking at its oily purple appearance, he thought for a moment but ultimately decided not to take a bite.

Most mushrooms that have fallen are poisonous.

Many players who consumed the poison either died suddenly or, as if under a spell, began exhibiting various erratic behaviors before succumbing to the poison and returning to town on the spot.

However, if you can survive it, it will indeed increase your poison resistance significantly.

Some ruthless individuals, in order to increase their resistance to poison, will search everywhere for all kinds of mushrooms to eat.

The higher the quality of the mushroom, the stronger its toxicity.

As a two-star rare treasure, Lin Hanchuan estimated that if he took one bite of the Purple Crape Myrtle Mushroom, he could make Xingchen cry for half a day.

The crape myrtle mushrooms were put away.

Lin Hanchuan began searching one by one according to the coordinates on the map.

【Blue Lotus Fruit】

Quality: One-Star Rare

Eating it raw can increase spell resistance by 10 points, and there is a chance to gain an additional 10 points of lightning attack. It can also be used as a raw material for some potions.

Note: Maximum of 1 piece can be eaten.

"Ding! Congratulations! You have successfully consumed a 'Blue Lotus Fruit,' increasing your spell defense by 10!"

【Sunny Day Flower】

Quality: Samsung Rare

"Ding! Congratulations! You have successfully consumed a 'Sunny Day Flower,' increasing your maximum mana by 100!"

……

"Ding! Congratulations! You have successfully consumed a 'Moonlight Grass,' increasing your spell defense by 20!"

……

With the help of the map, Lin Hanchuan discovered one plant after another, hidden in various corners, some of which were even growing together.

All the ores were put into the spatial ring.

Eat the plants that are edible, and throw the rest, roots and all, into your spatial ring.

Less than thirty minutes.

Lin Hanchuan acquired twenty-three kinds of rare and precious medicinal plants and consumed 19 of them.

Five rare and precious minerals.

Lin Hanchuan was crouching among a clump of ferns, trying to avoid the wild boars outside.

"Ding!"

Long Xiaochen sent a message in the team chat group.

Long Xiaochen: "Damn it, something terrible has happened! The one-way teleportation array to the Dark Forest is no longer working!"

Long Xiaochen squatted beside the teleportation array, holding the fluorescent stone, looking anxious. He had planned to use his pet to find a hundred or so medicinal plants in the Dark Forest to redeem himself, but after entering the teleportation array with the energy stone, there was no movement at all.

I held up the fluorescent stone to look at it.

Long Xiaochen then realized that many of the lines connecting the teleportation array had broken due to the drying of blood, rendering them unable to function again.

Long Xiaoyue: "That teleportation array has reached its usage limit. We'll have to use other methods to go to the Dark Forest next time."

Long Xiaochen: "Little sister, can you fix it? Your older brother is counting on it to redeem himself!"

Long Xiaoyue: "I don't have the skills of an array master, so I can't repair it!"

Cao Renjie: "Xiao Chen, just accept your fate! Sometimes, it's not that you're incapable, it's that God wants you to be incapable."

"This time in the Dark Forest, I found a plant that can boost a summoner's intelligence. I didn't eat it myself, but I saved it for you!"

Long Xiaochen ignored Cao Renjie and directly tagged Lin Hanchuan: "@Lin Hanchuan, Captain, what's the situation with you right now?"

Bang bang bang! !

The wild boar herd, perceived by the soul, was still passing by. There were hundreds of them, and the ground beneath their feet was shaking as they trampled them.

Lin Hanchuan continued to squat and send messages: "Good harvest, got dozens of trees. I'm currently hiding from a group of wild boars in the forest, so don't even think about coming over."

"Everyone, go to the farmland in the South Sixth District and wait for me."

Long Xiaochen: "Dozens of trees?"

Lin Hanchuan: "Including the previous ones, there are more than thirty. I currently have a map showing the distribution of rare and precious medicinal herbs and ores around me. If nothing unexpected happens, I can get some more."

Cao Renjie: "You've even got the distribution map? Did those StarWish creatures provide it?"

Lin Hanchuan: "Yes!!"

As the sound of wild boars running away faded into the distance, and there was no trace of the wild boar's soul in his soul perception, Lin Hanchuan quickly got up.

"I need to continue my mission. On your way there, you should first gather some information about the coordinates of the dungeons that have been discovered around Wangyue City, as well as their specific details."

"After I settle the spirit field in the farmland of the South Sixth District, we'll have to head out to run dungeons."

Lin Hanchuan announced the arrangements for the next steps in the group chat.

This operation in the Dark Forest wasted a lot of time.

However, for Lin Hanchuan, it was well worth it.

They obtained a rare item, a spiritual field, a pile of bone powder, and dozens of rare medicinal plants.

Just that spirit field alone, if Lin Hanchuan were willing to sell it, he could easily earn 50 gold coins, which is much more profitable than farming dungeons.

If you also sell the medicinal plants in your spatial ring as seedlings, you can earn at least another 30 gold coins.

You'll definitely make a lot of money.

But you can't keep making money forever.

Lin Hanchuan didn't know how much longer he could stay in the Dark Forest. So far, he had already encountered eight or nine high-level monsters.

If it weren't for the soul's perception discovering it beforehand.

He had already returned to the city.

After the sounds of the wild boar herd completely disappeared.

Lin Hanchuan's figure moved swiftly through the jungle once again.

After stopping under a large tree, Lin Hanchuan looked around according to the coordinates, and finally looked up suddenly.

Less than five meters above the ground, there was a tree hole, from which a branch extended and a glowing fruit was hanging on it.

Just as Lin Hanchuan was trying to figure out a way to get it done.

Suddenly, a giant bird's soul appeared in his soul perception. Without thinking, Lin Hanchuan carried Xingchen on his back and ran, disappearing directly into the grass not far away.

cracking!!

Whether the large bird failed to spot Lin Hanchuan or simply wasn't interested in him, it eventually flew away with a long cry.

When Lin Hanchuan came out again, the fruit on the tree was gone.

The dot representing it on the map also disappeared.

Lin Hanchuan shrugged. This kind of thing happens often; it's normal.

Some rare and exotic plants are even specially cultivated by sentient beings, and when they reach maturity, they will naturally come and harvest them.

This incident did not affect Lin Hanchuan's mindset.

I glanced at the map, found the nearest landmark, and ran off towards it.

"Ding! Congratulations! You have successfully consumed a 'Green Leaf Flower,' increasing your maximum health by 50!"

……

"Ding! Congratulations! You have successfully consumed a 'Blood Spirit Grass,' increasing your maximum health by 100!"

……

An hour has passed since the fruit was eaten by the large bird last time.

Lin Hanchuan, with Xingchen in tow, lay prone under a pile of decaying leaves, holding his breath and not even revealing his eyes, relying solely on his soul perception to observe what lay ahead.

Boom boom boom! !

The ground trembled, and blades of wind, sharper than metal, sliced ​​through all the surrounding vegetation. Even towering trees that would take dozens of people to encircle were sliced ​​in two by the dense wind blades.

The master of the Wind Blade is a Hurricane Bird, a level 120 King-level monster, and a regional boss in the Dark Forest.

Its target was a Wood Shadow Fox, which nimbly dodged the attacks while splinters flew towards the Hurricane Bird with each swipe of its claws.

The Wood Shadow Fox is also a level 120 King-level wild monster, and its strength is no less than that of the Hurricane Bird.

Originally, they were two bosses from different areas, but they ended up fighting each other because, in front of them, protected by wooden shields, there was a flower about to bloom.

Red, orange, yellow, green, cyan

Five colors of light shone through the gaps in the wooden shield.

Lin Hanchuan was just passing by and was about to leave after seeing the Wood Shadow Fox, but after seeing the colors of the blooming flower, he immediately stopped and chose to squat among the decaying leaves with Xingchen, waiting for an opportunity to take the plant away.

That flower that radiates five kinds of light is called the Five-Colored Flower.

Premium-grade medicinal plants!

It is also very useful for players who are level 100 or above.

While Lin Hanchuan was waiting, a hurricane bird flew in from the sky and immediately went berserk, attacking the Wood Shadow Fox frantically.

The fight has been going on for more than ten minutes.

Lin Hanchuan even began to wonder if the Hurricane Bird had come for the Five-Colored Flower. "The Five-Colored Flower isn't very helpful to a wind-attribute monster like the Hurricane Bird, is it? Has it gone mad? It keeps attacking the Wood Shadow Fox and has even given up its aerial advantage several times to land on the ground!"

Two regional bosses clashed.

Lin Hanchuan couldn't figure out the specific reasons, but it didn't matter. When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits. The fiercer they fought, the more it would help him in the future.

Boom boom boom! !

The Hurricane Bird landed again, spread its wings, and countless wind blades swept towards the Wood Shadow Fox like a dense rain.

The Wood Shadow Fox, which had been on the defensive all along, was now enraged. It roared to the sky, and countless vines suddenly sprouted from the ground. As if they were sentient, they frantically twitched their bodies and rushed towards the Hurricane Bird.

Wood Shadow Fox followed closely behind the twitching vines, heading towards the Hurricane Bird.

Lin Hanchuan peeled away the withered leaves, revealing an eye.

The two monsters were locked in a fierce battle, and were several hundred meters away from the five-colored flower.

The opportunity has come! !
Lin Hanchuan immediately turned to Xingchen and whispered, "Do you see that glowing spot?"

Xingchen: "Mm!"

Lin Hanchuan instructed, "Once I get there, you should use teleportation to go with me as soon as possible."

Rare medicinal plants are extremely rare and hard to come by, and Lin Hanchuan wanted to take a gamble.

Xingchen: "Okay!"

After receiving Xingchen's response, Lin Hanchuan no longer hesitated and directly used the Earth Piercing Technique.

The next moment, the body moved rapidly underground.

After estimating the distance, go upwards.

As soon as his head emerged from the ground, Lin Hanchuan saw that in front of him, besides a colorful flower, there was also an egg.

A blue egg covered with patterns.

"The Hurricane Bird's egg!" Lin Hanchuan immediately recognized it. "No wonder that guy was fighting desperately with the Wood Shadow Fox. It turns out the Wood Shadow Fox stole his egg. And with the Five-Colored Flower, is this guy trying to eat the egg and the Five-Colored Flower at the same time?"

Wood Shadow Fox is very greedy.

But Lin Hanchuan didn't expect him to be so bold as to actually steal from the Hurricane Bird.

The moment Lin Hanchuan emerged from the ground, he held a return scroll in one hand and tossed the Hurricane Bird's egg into his backpack with the other. At the same time, accompanied by a spatial fluctuation, Xingchen appeared beside Lin Hanchuan.

Roar! ! !
The Wood Shadow Fox, who was in the middle of the battle, seemed to have discovered something. It suddenly shouted, and then the ground shook violently. A vine quickly grew out of the ground beneath Lin Hanchuan's feet.

Lin Hanchuan didn't care about anything else. He grabbed the bottom of the colorful flower, pulled it out forcefully, and stuffed it into his backpack without even looking at it.

Just as the cane was about to strike him, Lin Hanchuan used a return scroll.

A milky white light enveloped him and the stars.

brush! !
