Chapter 200 Platinum Level Crop: Arctic Cattail
[Virgin Succubus's First Menstrual Period
Tier: Platinum
Type: Special Item
Description: The Enchanting Demon, a peculiar race in the Abyss, symbolizes purity from the moment of its birth.
Every Enchanting Demon experiences an emotional wave upon reaching adulthood, which fills them with longing for the opposite sex, leaving "purity" behind.
The Virgin Succubus's First Menstrual Period is obtained from an Enchanting Demon experiencing this emotional wave for the first time, extracted at the moment of its birth by special means.
Effect: After use, you can ignore hostile rules and forcibly tame a creature as a pet.
Note: The higher the tier of the taming target, the lower the success rate.
Note: This item is ineffective against mechanical lifeforms.
Old Pu: Seeing it reminds me of those years running under the sunset, a memory of my lost youth. (Hides tissues)
To avoid unnecessary troubles, it's recommended not to use it on other players' pets.
Because... How is this conduct different from that of a traitor?
This item's body is a transparent jar, containing a cloud of pink smoke.
Li Zheng just glanced at it twice and felt the atmosphere becoming ambiguous.
He was slightly stunned, shifted his gaze, and put it away: "Damn it, this thing is really eerie. I almost fell in love with it just after two glances."
The mere contact of sight can stir up romantic thoughts in the heart. One must say that the effect of this item is astonishing, and Li Zheng was a bit frightened.
Looking back at the pink Poli still entangled around Sakura's legs, Li Zheng pondered whether to use this item to tame the pink Poli.
So as not to let this guy go down unusual paths and keep coveting his cabbage every day.
But then he thought, using such a powerful item on a free pink Poli, wouldn't that be giving it away for free?
Looking at Sakura with a complex gaze, Li Zheng muttered: "Besides, with Sakura's nerve as tough as steel, if Poli can manage to bend her, that would truly defy fate."
It's not that becoming muscular would make it similar to a muscular wrench.
"Ao?"
Seeming to feel Li Zheng's gaze, Sakura, who was looking at the Earth Dragon Crystal Core with a troubled expression, suddenly looked up, her eyes vacant.
Did master just speak ill of me?
"..."
Li Zheng felt relieved.
Based on the little one's character, Sakura couldn't possibly have any special feelings towards Poli unless one day it became delicious and tasty.
Taking a few pitying glances at the ever attentive yet ignored Poli by Sakura, Li Zheng shook his head.
"Simp to the end and you get nothing."
"Ao?"
"Poli?"
"Nothing, let's move on to the next room."
This room doesn't have hidden items. Li Zheng casually ignited a player's half-burnt body and then proceeded to the next room with Sakura and others to probe.
After filtering, Li Zheng chose the ground door.
[Behind the door, the temperature is -120°C, and there's a Platinum Level special crop growing here that you might find interesting.
Luckily, there is no creature guarding here.
Friendly tip: If you don't want to lose your beloved pet, apply an insurance layer before going in.]
This is where Li Zheng's wisdom of having converted "Immune to Cold and Heat" proves invaluable.
Otherwise, he would have to choose between the crop and Sakura.
But now, he can confidently say: I want them all!
"Extreme Isolation!" ×3
After all protective measures were in place, Li Zheng swiped his card to open the door and cautiously piloted the flying device into the next room.
Entering the next room, Li Zheng was almost blown off balance by a surge of strong wind just as he showed up.
Fortunately, he stabilized the flying device quickly, lowered the altitude swiftly, and landed on the ground.
Behind him, with a lighter weight, Sakura was swept ten meters away by the wind before stabilizing.
"Polilii~"
The pink Poli, still looking like a balloon, swayed its body happily in the strong wind.
Li Zheng looked up, suddenly thinking that if he hadn't coated it with the isolation ability, considering that 99% of it is water, would it have been frozen into an ice cube?
"When there's a chance, I can test it out. Maybe combined with Ice Attachment, it could even enhance its attack power."
Now isn't the right time; finding that crop takes priority.
This room is a barren rock area. From the slope of the ground, it's simulating a mountaintop.
Even though the temperature is very low, it's not in an icy environment; despite the high winds, there are no obstacles at all.
Following Old Pu's hint, Li Zheng soon found the Platinum Level crop in a rock crevice.
It is a low shrub, undamaged by the wind due to its growth in a shelter surrounded by rocks, with a blue fruit hanging on it.
No one knows how long it has been growing here, but it was already in a mature state. Li Zheng didn't hesitate and plucked it right away.
[Arctic Cattail Fruit
Tier: Platinum
Description: Fruit bearing from the Arctic Cattail.
After consumption, it is very likely to develop an Ice Gene Ability.
Note: There is a certain probability of causing irreversible damage to the player.]
The fruit isn't big; its attributes are quite ordinary. Li Zheng took two or three bites and swallowed it.
Sour and sweet, tasting like an apple.
However, the effect was just so-so.
The experience points of Ice and Fire Attachment gained fifty points.
These days, whenever Flame Flowers ripen, Li Zheng would harvest them on time, successfully upgrading the ability to Lv3, needing 300 points to reach the next level.
It is expected to level up to Lv4 by tomorrow morning.
The experience required to upgrade Genetic Abilities increases by only one hundred points per level.
Based on this trend...
Li Zheng silently calculated and was shocked to find that it would take him up to thirteen days to maximize it!
What does this mean?
The game hasn't even reached ten days yet...
Of course, the actual time will be shorter, given the large amount of cultivation liquid he has. Thirteen days without any triggered mutations are impossible.
Yet, even so, Li Zheng felt it was painfully slow.
As the first trump card for his rise, Ice and Fire Attachment had countless meritorious achievements along the way, and it was nearing the point where it couldn't keep up with his enhancement pace, and Li Zheng was reluctant to just set it aside unused.
These days, he also considered purchasing some Ice and Fire items to speed up the enhancement.
But the production volume of Gene Ability Development Items is appallingly low, and demand is incredibly high.
If you don't shell out, you won't get anything.
Haven't you seen how Phoenix Mountain pushed himself to such lengths to enhance a Silver Level Genetic Ability?
Living hand to mouth, Li Zheng didn't feel like dealing with him even if he had good stuff.
Always paying on credit, who can tolerate that?
Moreover, by that time, the power of Ice and Fire Attachment was already sufficient for use; Li Zheng was even less inclined to spend a large amount of resources to stack its level.
Although Phoenix Mountain hasn't told how much experience he gains per equal tier item consumption.
But Li Zheng guessed that using equal tier items to enhance a Silver Level Ability should give considerable experience.
Looking at Sakura's situation while enhancing Flying Rock Bomb, a single Flame Flower could boost Phoenix Mountain by a hundred experience points.
To reach full level for a Silver Ability, you need just forty-five Flame Flowers.
However, for Ice and Fire Attachment, a Platinum Level Dual Gene Ability, if Li Zheng wanted to rely on eating Flame Flowers to max it out...
"Curse it all, it'd take a total of three hundred Flame Flowers!"
