Chapter 185 The Magical Uses of the Sky Fruit
It was already evening when Brent and Losa returned to the base.
After a busy day, the residents are now gathering around the campfire in the open space to chat, rest, and talk about their gains.
"You don't know, today I was farming outside and encountered a second-level black beast. Guess what, I killed it with one shot."
"Haha, just brag. It was clearly parasitized by those lantern trees and was about to explode, and you just happened to see it."
"That's right. The planting area over there is bustling. I saw with my own eyes a fifth-level black snake running out of its nest. Many adventure teams rushed over. It was a lively scene. Tsk tsk..."
"It's a pity that those magic cannons have to be handed in after use. It would be great if I could exchange them for one with my contribution."
All kinds of boasting sounds echoed around the campfire.
The men boasted of their own achievements, while the women watched them with a smirk and mended their clothes with the collected animal skins.
Even on the wood piled around, there were many mages sitting cross-legged, meditating and recovering while listening to the boasting.
The Centaurs were lying in the corner, teasing a few newborn babies, and the harpy men were standing on the treetops, their faces flickering in the light of the fire.
The entire base was filled with joy and laughter.
"so good……"
Some people couldn't help but sigh as they looked at the warm scene before them.
Once upon a time, they were still struggling for food and were willing to risk their lives for a bite to eat.
However, they never expected that they could live such a dream-like life, which made them feel unreal.
Invisible energy flew out from their bodies and gathered towards the Moon Goddess Altar, like a torrent in the dark night sky.
After two days of familiarization, the new adventure teams finally understood why it was so easy to survive the Black Moon here.
It was because of a powerful magic item!
At first, when they heard about it, they were a little skeptical, but when they saw with their own eyes that the guards used it to kill the black beasts, they had to believe it.
I even feel that those people were understating the matter.
"It's too exaggerated to let an ordinary person launch an attack comparable to the second level."
"This is the first time I've heard of such a magic item."
"I don't know if I can buy it, or exchange it for contributions."
Adventure teams like theirs often encounter situations where their magic power is depleted and their combat strength is exhausted.
If there is such a magic item at this time, it will definitely greatly increase their chances of survival, so naturally they all want to buy one as a backup.
Especially those that come with healing magic and control magic, which are simply life-saving artifacts.
Nothing can be seen now, but when more and more adventure teams come here in the future, conflicts are inevitable when they explore the underground world, so having one more means will be beneficial to them.
"Let's go ask Mr. Brent later. By the way, where is Mr. Brent?"
"It seems he was called away and hasn't come back yet."
As they spoke, the several adventure teams that had gathered together looked up and saw Brent and Lothar rushing back from outside, their faces beaming with joy.
When the people who were still boasting saw them, they all stood up and went to greet them.
"Boss Brent, you're back."
"How was it? Did you meet the city lord?"
"The Lord City Lord didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"
"I thought something happened to you."
The crowd chattered and gathered around.
The reason they gathered here and didn't sleep was because Brent and the others hadn't come back yet and they were a little worried.
Even the demons stationed outside came and waited here.
only.
When they felt the aura of Brent and Lothar was stronger than before, they were shocked.
One of the lava demons in particular noticed that half of Lothar's wings had turned purple.
"Purple Wing! Uncle Losa, you... you have awakened your royal bloodline?!"
A cry of surprise attracted all eyes, and those who knew something about the demon race all focused on the pair of wings.
"Haha, the city lord thinks highly of us and has improved our blood purity. Unfortunately, my talent is too poor and I have only awakened 50%."
Losa's mouth was crooked from smiling.
Although 50% blood purity may not seem like much, it is already considered as officially entering the ranks of the demon royal family, which is definitely a big deal among the entire demon clan.
Even Brent who was standing next to him was the same. His aura became much more fierce. It was obvious at a glance that he had a new understanding of sword skills and was probably not far from the sixth level.
They had only been away for one day, but the two of them had undergone such amazing changes. How could they not be shocked?
of course.
Brent and Losa also did not forget what Augla had told them before leaving.
He raised his hand to suppress the crowd's exclamations, and then spoke loudly: "From today on, we will set up two city defense teams respectively to be responsible for the order and safety of the residential area and the planting area."
"Anyone who has reached level three or above, regardless of race, can come to us to sign up, and every member who passes the review and joins will be given a level three or above magic cannon, and can directly obtain city household registration and receive a piece of land."
City defense team!
Each person has a magic cannon!
You can also obtain household registration and receive land!
In an instant, the crowd was boiling with excitement, especially the new adventure teams, all of whom looked excited.
They were just seeing no way to obtain household registration, so isn't this the opportunity?
As long as you spend half a day here, you can feel the huge potential of this new city. The difficulty of obtaining a household registration will only increase as time goes by.
Once the city is truly established and the population reaches a certain size, it may even be difficult to find a home.
For them, obtaining household registration at this time is equivalent to gaining control of a gold mountain!
"Me, me, me, I want to sign up!"
"Count me in too!"
"Can I sign up for the second level?" "Can I really get the land directly?"
"Apart from strength, are there any other requirements?"
The whole crowd was in chaos, surrounding the two people and asking them all kinds of questions, fearing that the quota would be full and they would not have a turn.
Brent and Losa also patiently explained, listing the various screening requirements one by one.
According to Augula, not only does one need to be strong, but one also needs to be loyal. Not everyone can just come up and take away a piece of land. Otherwise, how will those who have worked hard to cultivate the land look at you?
Therefore, the screening criteria they listed were very strict, and they did not relax the requirements just because there were few people.
But even so, there were still many people who met their requirements and established a large-scale city defense team.
This continued until late at night, when the bustle in the base finally died down.
……
Early the next morning.
As soon as the day broke, the residents set out in all directions to reclaim land and build houses, and the entire forest became busy again.
Rhodes, who was on the Moon Goddess Altar, also woke up early and planned to upgrade his level to level three within three days.
As usual, after leaving the altar, he walked around the woods, checking the growth of various plants.
"Yeah, not bad, Xiaodou, you've grown taller again."
"Why is it so smelly here? Kaba, did you pee on the dragon blood vine again?!"
"Where are the mushrooms I planted here? Who stole them and ate them?"
"Oh my god, you scared me. Little Stone, don't throw away the stones you don't want!"
Every time he arrived at a place, Rhode's voice would be heard, and the little guys who were named would scream and run away.
Afraid of being caught and spanked.
Several soul ravens were flying in the sky, making cackling sounds, as if mocking them mercilessly.
In the blink of an eye, the forest was full of vitality again.
"what?"
Suddenly, Rhodes stopped and came to the sky tree that had just been planted not long ago.
I haven't looked at it for a while, and the bunches of fruits hanging on the top have grown a lot bigger, enough to wrap him up completely.
"Wait, it's in a package?"
Looking at those fruits of the void, Rhodes suddenly fell into deep thought.
If he remembered correctly, the areas covered by these fruits were independent spaces, completely isolated from the outside world.
And the fact that the dwarf humans can live in it means that living things can enter.
Doesn't that mean that he can use the Fruit of the Sky to isolate the perception of the natives of Dream Land?
It's like walking with a subspace.
"Why didn't I think of that?"
Rhodes clapped his hands, surprised by his own intelligence.
If this method is really useful, then the difficulty of entering the Dreamland to explore will definitely be greatly reduced, and it may even be possible to find the fourth demigod mark.
Immediately, he called Cabba and asked it to fly up and pick a Sky Fruit.
When I got the fruit, it was bigger than I had imagined, probably because of the distance.
And just like what we have seen before, this fruit has no flesh, only a seed and a circle of transparent film wrapped around it, which looks like a huge bubble.
Rhodes tried to throw a stone in, and sure enough, he could no longer sense the presence of the stone.
The only flaw is that you can't move after entering, but it's not a big problem for him. At worst, he can just wait until the enemies leave before coming out.
After thinking about it, Rhodes stretched out his hand and easily passed through the transparent film without encountering much hindrance.
Then the body and limbs, and finally the head, all entered the space in the fruit.
Swish swish!
A sound broke through the air.
Augla and the others appeared in the open space, all looking nervous.
"What happened? Why did Lord Rhodes's aura disappear?"
Augula looked around. He had clearly sensed that Rhodes was here just now.
Alpha and Irene wanted to say something, but suddenly their eyes fixed and they all looked towards where Rhodes was standing.
"Can you sense my presence?"
Rhodes left the Fruit of the Void and came outside.
"Yeah, I can sense something." Alpha nodded.
"Our elven rangers' detection skills can sense it very clearly." Yilin said immediately.
Only the warrior Augla was confused, still wondering where Rhodes came from.
From this we can see that the shielding effect of the Sky Fruit is only effective below level six.
Those above level six with relatively strong mental power can easily discover the existence of the fruit.
This may be related to the maturity of the fruit.
However, being able to block perceptions below level six was beyond Rhodes' expectations, so he quickly told them his plan.
"Are you planning to use this fruit to sneak into the Dreamweaver's territory?"
After hearing his plan, the three of them were stunned. They never expected that the Sky Fruit had such a wonderful use.
"Yes, do you think it's feasible?" Rhodes asked.
"It's feasible, but..." Erin hesitated. "This thing can only block the spiritual perception of the general sixth level. What if I encounter the seventh level?"
"Not only the seventh level, even though we can defeat those powerful sixth level ones, if we go too deep, the noise we make will definitely attract other natives, and it won't be easy to escape." Alpha expressed his thoughts.
The fog surrounding the Dreamland seems to have the property of disrupting direction, so it would be difficult to fly out directly from it.
Once besieged, no one can tell whether it will attract a stronger opponent, so we must discuss the plan carefully.
