Chapter 810: Chapter 810
Looking over this vast plain, Du You descended quickly with the two sisters. Although he was uncertain of the exact location of the monsters, Du You wasn’t worried at all because there were many wild beasts and low-tier Magical Beasts here.
Upon landing, Du You summoned all his Summoned Beasts, including the fear-prone Bubble.
"What? You say you can sense something dangerous here. Yes, you’re right, that’s our target." Observing the cautious Bubble, Du You felt an urge to laugh.
"Alright, let’s start," Du You told Lin Yushi. They had already planned earlier for Lin Yushi to use Demon Extermination Spirit to scatter and attract the Mo Dans, while Du You and the others would follow and hunt them.
"I remember there’s a decent task nearby, collecting Mo Dan bodies. I heard this stuff is a highly nutritious delicacy, especially beneficial for the elderly and children, a rare treat indeed. Many nobles are buying it, but it rarely appears on the market because of the danger and the low purchase price." Googlᴇ search 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚•𝙣𝙚𝙩
"Some nobles even treat these Magical Beasts as precious food; they really can do anything," Du You remarked.
Lin Yushi spoke disdainfully, "The more I deal with these nobles, the worse my impression of them becomes. Each one appears graceful or promising on the surface, but in reality, they’re all useless."
Not only do they lack strength, but their capabilities are also mediocre, yet each of them thinks they are incredibly powerful.
The truly ambitious noble offspring had gone out to train already, leaving behind those who might not all be totally incompetent, but aren’t much better. Especially those lecherous looks, which the sisters detested the most.
"Without them, our business would be difficult. Selling this stuff for some gold coins could benefit the development of our territory. We’ll see how it turns out; if it really is a good product, maybe we can take it back."
While speaking, Du You focused on sensing his surroundings. The reason he dared to come here was his Spiritual Perception. Since advancing to the fourth tier, although his Spiritual Perception hadn’t reached level 30, his senses had become even clearer. He could now sense some movements underground, which he couldn’t before.
If something was hiding underground to attack him, he would definitely be able to react before it reached him.
Just as Du You thought about this, the ground suddenly burst open in front of him, and a fat white worm’s head faced him. Du You was a bit stunned; this creature was incredibly fast, having appeared almost as soon as he sensed it.
The big head wasted no time and opened its mouth at Du You. A white beam of light pierced through the Void, striking Du You’s shield barrier. The fierce vibration and explosion shattered the Shield Spell barrier.
Only a very weak force remained, which was blocked and then absorbed by the Dark Absorption.
"Such a strong attack, no wonder it’s highly spoken of." Although his Shield Spell hadn’t been upgraded to the fourth tier, due to his own level and physique, his defense was definitely not weak. Many mages’ fourth-tier shields were only about this strong. Yet, Mo Dan’s attack could breach it in one go, which spoke volumes of Mo Dan’s powerful attacking capability.
Suddenly appearing with very potent killing power, it could easily lead to the death of a fourth-tier expert—no wonder no one wished to come to such a place.
Even the nobles weren’t fools, with no one willing to have such a creature suddenly emerge at home. For most nobles without real power, faced with such an ambush by the creature, it meant a certain death.
Lin Yucha raised her hand and performed a Spiral Snipe, piercing the head of the Mo Dan before it could even retract.
The massive creature fell to the ground and visibly shriveled, eventually leaving behind only a layer of skin. "This thing feels like a balloon; it couldn’t be inflated, could it?" Lin Yushi wondered aloud, somewhat perplexed.
"Who knows? Let’s dig it out and see; shouldn’t the corpse be an egg?" Du You, puzzled, examined the data he had collected, wondering why it differed from what was documented.
The Death Ape stepped forward, harnessed the power of the Land, and flipped the soil underneath the layer of skin. Du You finally saw what the root of the Mo Dan was. It was a black egg all over, with purple patterns on its surface.
The tip of the egg had a hole that could close. The entire egg was only the size of a fist, and the Mo Dan’s creature had burrowed out from here. For some reason, after coming out, its head rapidly expanded and became very large. Such a fist-sized Mo Dan, gave rise to a creature over 6.5 feet thick and 26 feet long, which was quite bizarre.
"It looks is the delicacy those nobles want to eat," said Du You, after noticing no prompt on the panel, indicating that while useful, it was still within the realm of ordinary items and not of much use to them.
However, as Du You opened the burst Light Cluster, a smile appeared on his face. "As I thought, it’s rich in nutrients, look."
Du You passed the Mo Dan Essence that burst out for the sisters to see.
Mo Dan Essence: Enhances strength, speed, constitution, stamina, and vitality comprehensively, effective on the first consumption.
Finally, he had found something that could improve his own abilities, even though the direction of enhancement wasn’t very effective for him as a Mage, it wasn’t entirely useless either.
At least, thinking about the evening’s games, Du You revealed a slightly mischievous smile.
The two sisters also seemed to have thought of it; their faces blushed slightly. "Well, master, you eat it first, we can talk about it later," Lin Yucha, shy at heart, thus passed it to Du You.
Du You nodded, "Okay, I’ll eat it first. The drop rate of this thing should be quite high." He wouldn’t let go of such a great item. After swallowing the purple Light Cluster, Du You quickly felt a warm flow coursing through his body.
After the comfortable warmth dissipated, Du You felt a subtle change in his body, becoming more robust and powerful.
After scanning with Spiritual Perception, Du You felt that a certain part of his body seemed to have gotten a bit larger. This made him even more pleased. "This thing, if we take it back, could definitely fetch a good price."
"We should collect more; the funds needed for the development of our tier-four territory might just depend on this," he added.
The sisters spat discreetly, both tensely observing Du You’s changes, also began to feel weak in their bodies. They quickly diverted their attention, allowing themselves to gradually calm down.
