Plague Island's dilapidated church.
On the pitch-black island, a few old mining lamps beca the only dim light.
Nancy devoutly knelt to pray, while Chun had Aileen watch Magic Crystal Drama.
Chun couldn't help but admire the advanced nature of Magic Crystal Drama, and Aileen imdiately fell for it.
That's good, she needs to be captivated; otherwise, how would she delve into coded ssages?
As for Chun himself, he felt sowhat idle, his desire to end this exile growing stronger. But when he leaves, it'll only be Nancy guarding this lonely island...
No problem, let's switch and check the alt character.
At this ti, the Earth Lotus was teaching rune lessons to ten little ones, who were practically born with the Earth Series Rune Sacred Body, now able to write advanced Earth Series runes in succession!
Now, let's check the alt character system ssages:
——System Notification: Congratulations! Your explorer profession skill Basic Invisibility has upgraded to level 2...
——Dios Comrce Association Notification: Congratulations! Your association has completed the Black Dragon Fortress task, gaining significant Black Dragon Fortress reputation, and the association upgraded to level 23...
——System Notification: Congratulations! You have mastered the Rune Technique, Rune Technique promoted to Expert level 2...
——System Notification: Your Azazel Badge can teleport back to the Volcano Mine.
...
The Invisibility skill truly upgraded; progress is swift among the elites! Hmm?
The Azazel Badge's once-a-week teleportation cooldown has arrived! Holy Shit, I thought seven days was such a long wait, but now it's almost unnoticed.
Teleport back! Let's check on the supervisor beauty, Erga, and see how the consortium's advancents are!
But first, wait for the kids to finish their class. Oh right, before going back, there's the Comrce Association level 10 reward to claim from the leader—I want to return ho in glory.
Just then, Earth Lotus spoke up, "Father is here! Father's Construction Technique has reached Expert level; now the lakeside can no longer hold all the fish nests, and the fish nest construction is considered complete. We're reviewing it now."
Completed?
Chun glanced at the lake, and the fish nests were no longer the chaotic otter dam but had beco a connected chain similar to a coastal breakwater, showcasing the beauty of order and magnificence amidst chaos!
Earth Lotus added, "I've also had the kids grind so Crystal Stone Ore into powder, which we'll sprinkle into the lake when the small fish are born—certain they'll love it, and maybe they'll learn the Breeding Skill Father ntioned."
Chun felt quite gratified, "So, the Rune Technique they're practicing is used for grinding powder?"
"Yes!"
Chun asked, "Then can they practice independently?"
"Yes, the kids are very smart!"
Chun felt even more gratified, "Alright, then leave it to the kids to practice on their own. Let's go see the leader first, and then I'll take you to Father's... hotown."
Earth Lotus said, "Okay!"
The next mont, Chun was back in the Purple Crystal Cave, eting Dibilon leader.
The leader was very pleased, "I'm looking forward to your fishery results and fully support the construction of an elite fishery in the Divine Pool. Your Comrce Association level now ets my expectations, so here's your reward!"
As he spoke, a familiar crystal core flew out of the mud pool:
——System Notification: Congratulations! You've received the Dibilon Tribe's reward, Divine Artifact-level material "Heart of Earth Fla."
Heart of Earth Fla: Divine Artifact-level material, a token of the Dibilon Tribe's friendship, can be bound to your physique to further transform you into Earth Fla Body. Able to release Earth Fla Barrier enhancing Fla Resistance by 70%, Earth Series Resistance by 70%, absorbing 70 fla damage and storing it as fla energy... Would you like to fuse?
3rd one, fuse!
——System Notification: You've successfully fused with Heart of Earth Fla, able to release Earth Fla Barrier enhancing Fla Resistance by 210%, Earth Fla Resistance by 210%... absorbing 210 fla damage...
——System Notification: Congratulations! Through the fusion of Heart of Earth Fla, your Earth Fla Body has been greatly enhanced, gaining Earth Fla Mana 1000, Defense 30, Life Value 100. Your "Essence of Hand-to-Hand" ability has been improved, Hand-to-Hand Attack Power 30%, Two-Handed Defense 30, carrying capacity 100, Blocking Rate 30%.
...
Holy Shit!! 3 cores and it's a qualitative change!
The leader then said, "In this hellish world, don't be satisfied with small progress; you still need to move forward steadily."
Indeed, adding a thousand and a bit to mana, life, and defense here doesn't count for much, but just beco more like an NPC.
"Thank you, leader, for the guidance. I will continue to work hard."
"Looking forward to your next progress!"
Now it's ti to teleport back. This Earth Fla Tribe space is special, teleportation probably won't work here, have to exit the village. Chun suddenly had a thought, should I ntion my plan to head back to the second layer to the leader? The leader actually knew I was an outsider ages ago; he just didn't care. Besides, he was originally a backdoor arranged by a big shot...
Chun thought it through and continued to be honest, "Leader, I'm going back to visit my hotown today."
The leader beca interested, "Where is your hotown?"
"Second layer of hell, Volcano Mine. My superior is Lady Maria."
The leader smiled, "Given that, I must present a gift to the lady as a token of our tribe's friendship!"
After speaking, a dazzling item floated into Chun's hand—it was a... Crystal Stone Flower?
——Gift Crystal Stone Flower: Diplomatic gift from the Earth Fla Tribe, increases faction friendliness upon gifting.
Holy Shit!
The leader—for sure—generous as always; this isn't just a flower, it's clearly a rit award!
Chun joyously said, "Thank you, leader, I will convey your friendly wishes to my superior."
"Go, co back soon!"
...
Outside the village, Chun attempted to activate teleportation——System Notification: Teleport back to Volcano Mine? Teleport every 7 days, use with caution.
Teleport!
A blur surrounded, Chun waited another ten seconds or so, then the scene changed, Chun was back at the Volcano Forging Plaza.
Earth Lotus was truly amazed, "Is this Father's hotown!"
Uh... not really! But after 7 days apart, it felt rather simple yet nostalgic, huh?
Chun looked around but didn't see the supervisor. Forget it, let's check on Erga; wonder how they're doing.
Chun entered one teleportation array, the scene changed, surrounded by clouds and mist, dazzling brilliance.
Uh, this is the smart teleportation array, directly back to see Maria, huh!
The white veil Maria appeared again, "Warrior, you've developed well in Lost Paradise!"
Chun imdiately handed over the gift, "Thank you for the recognition, my superior. Actually, my progress in Lost Paradise is average, but I've developed well in the Earth Fla Tribe. This is the eting gift from Earth Mother's Child, Dibilon's leader, for you!"
Maria was stunned, "Are you exposing your identity voluntarily?"
Chun was a bit sweaty, "This is the result of deep thought because Dibilon leader's strategy is to support entering Lost Paradise's higher circles, thereby safeguarding the tribe..."
After listening to Chun's explanation, Maria finally accepted the gift, her expression changing, "This is?"
Chun was stunned, "A gift?!"
Maria laughed out loud, "Good, very valuable! I understand the leader's sincerity now; you've done very well!"
