Chapter 2: The Plains of the Water Rabbit

The water rabbit is a creature at the bottom of the food chain of the Ozmanda Empire, with an adult body length of 43 cm to 53 cm, feeding on young grass plants represented by oil wheat grass, living in shrubs represented by long-leaved vines, and running at speeds of up to 50 km/h. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 The info water rabbit produces 6-7 litters of cubs per year, 5-6 per litter, and only 5% of the cubs of the water rabbit have magic crystals, which can control the water element to a certain extent. Because of its super reproductive ability, it forms an indispensable link in the food chain of the plains and hilly regions of the Ozmanda Empire's Silver Water Galaxy Life Planet.

The fur of the water rabbit has a high commercial value, is one of the main export commodities of the Ozmanda Empire, in recent years because of excessive hunting, the number of water rabbits is becoming scarce, I opened up the half-plane "Water Rabbit Plain" in Ozmanda 98221 to carry out research on the fertility and reproduction of water rabbits, although the plane lost the space beacon in Ozmanda 99145 and could not be re-entered, but the "Water Rabbit III" breed after the improvement of magic technology was preserved.

――――Excerpt from "Ozmanda Water System Biology Encyclopedia"

The plains dominated by green grass are so clean that people forget everything around them, the dark green shrubs, the light green shoots, and the dark blue hidden in the middle of the green, make people's spirits become as vibrant as the green grass. A clear river is like a round and jade ribbon, gently sliding from the sky to the feet of people, making the vibrant heart become moist.

The wind in the grassland seems to have a magical power, adding a breath of freedom to everything around it. The inch-long tender grass, as soon as it came out of the fertile soil, struggled tenaciously in the wind, until the tender green of the grass disappeared in the wind with the smell of the earth, and the tender green became light green, and if the river of time still moved forward, then the light green would also become a tough dark green.

Xu Mo breathed in the pure air that seemed to be free of a trace of impurities, breathing greedily and contentedly, his cheeks had become red at some point, he only knew that he had experienced unprecedented freedom and comfort at this moment.

Looking at the distant horizon, the green world has spread to the horizon, and the blue sky is not only floating white clouds, but also white dreams, at this moment Xu Mo clearly understands that he can walk out of a different path. Exams, grades, social relationships, everything he was tired of would dissipate invisibly in the intoxicating scent of grass.

A purple light bloomed from his chest, reforming into the "Warlock's Book" in front of him, and the grass principle in the distance suddenly lost its color and turned into a dull black, white and gray color, Xu Mo guessed that whenever the "Warlock's Book" was opened, the time and space of the outside world would be still, and even he could only keep his thoughts alive.

The Warlock's Book quickly turns to the "Dungeon" page, where the original characters are still gone, replaced by a description of the main quest.

Main Quest: First Acquaintance with Blood

Mission Description: Blood has always been a good companion for warlocks, whether it is to complete sacrifices, sign contracts, or release curses, it is inseparable from its help. As the inheritor and host of the Book of Warlocks, how can you never even touch blood, go to the Water Rabbit Plain and brutally kill a water rabbit and collect 100ml of water rabbit blood.

Reward: Sacrificial Circle (Mortal 3 Stars)

Mission Time Limit: None

After carefully considering the main quest in front of him, Xu Mo actually found that the requirements for the Book of Warlocks were surprisingly low. Unlike the cruelty of the main god of the infinite stream novels that I had read before, the mission of this book of warlocks was nothing more than to kill a rabbit by himself. Although Xu Mo had never killed a single animal himself, not even the chickens and ducks in the countryside. But compared to the tempting quest rewards, this quest is surprisingly simple.

Xu Mo was secretly happy in his heart, thinking that he was about to have otherworldly powers, he couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, and immediately set off to find the trace of the water rabbit. Seeing that the hill he was on was not too high, Xu Mo jumped down and stepped on the soft lawn. He ran forward excitedly, his eyes carefully searching the surroundings, it was just a rabbit, it was impossible to hide.

Contrary to his wishes, Xu Mo's physical strength was quickly exhausted, and he could only slowly walk on the grass, looking for the water rabbit in the mission description. After the excitement at the beginning passed, Xu Mo thought about how to complete this seemingly simple task.

"The water rabbit, the water rabbit, after all, is still a rabbit, since it is a rabbit, then it must live in a place with plenty of water and lush grass, and after jumping down from the hills, he ran in the direction of the land in order to run faster. After thinking about it, he realized that he should look in the direction of lush grass and near the water source.

So, Xu Mo walked up a hill again, and after observing the location of the water source, he chose the direction again.

After finding the right direction, Xu Mo really found a chubby figure on the bank of the river.

The gray rabbit was selflessly nibbling on the fat green grass in front of him, his ears were shrugged, and a pair of big blue eyes were staring at the grass in front of him, as if he was comfortable.

Seeing the rabbit relaxing, Xu Mo slowly approached it, his two hands clawed, and placed them on his chest, ready to catch it after approaching.

Enter, enter, the corners of Xu Mo's mouth have been irrepressibly slightly upturned, in his opinion, this rabbit that lacks vigilance will soon become the first victim of his warlock path.

Five meters, three meters!

It was at this time that Xu Mo took a step forward suddenly, and quickly grabbed the poor rabbit with both hands.

I saw that the rabbit's ears suddenly stood up keenly, and its powerful hind legs kicked violently on the ground, and it ran away quickly.

Xu Mo couldn't give up, spread his legs and ran, chasing the rabbit towards the river bank. After running more than ten meters, Xu Mo gave up his plan to chase the rabbit, and after only a few steps, the gap between him and the rabbit suddenly widened a lot. It's so far away that people don't even have the desire to chase.

Xu Mo stopped, panting as the arrow-like figure disappeared into the bushes. After running a few steps, the gray rabbit noticed that the two-legged monster chasing after him was much farther away, so he poked his quirky head out of the bushes and looked curiously at the two-legged monster that smelled strangely.

Xu Mo was ashamed for a while, he had lived in the city since he was a child, how did he know that rabbits ran several times faster than people, not to mention that he usually had few opportunities to exercise, not even a rabbit.

In line with the principle of knowing oneself and knowing that the enemy will not be defeated in a hundred battles, Xu Mo directly rejected the method of chasing the hare, and instead began to think about how to use the habits of the hare and the tools around him to kill.

Looking at the direction of the horizon, the sun was already approaching sunset, Xu Mo knew that if he didn't complete the task as soon as possible, he could only sleep on this prairie tonight, and his stomach was rumbling with hunger, if he didn't find food as soon as possible, maybe the mission would fail to be punished without punishment, and he would starve to death on this grassland.

The wind was still blowing, Xu Mo looked at the endless grassland, the excitement of longing for freedom was consumed at once, fear, uneasiness, and anxiety about the future filled his heart at once. Loneliness also spread in his heart, he didn't know what would be the outcome if he couldn't complete the task, maybe he would die alone on this grassland?

Summoning the Book of Warlocks, he was in a better mood, at least he still had a chance to control his life.

Xu Mo held back the desire to cry, he never thought that it would be so difficult for him to be able to accomplish things that the characters in those novels could easily accomplish.

"I had to find something to eat and a place to sleep before the sun went down." Xu Mo thought secretly in his mind.

Walking to the edge of the bushes, Xu Mo found that there were many soil pits in the bushes, and it seemed that this was where the rabbit slept. There were still a few hares quietly gnawing on the weeds in the distance, but Xu Mo did not chase them in vain. He knew that his hands, which had no nails, could not even clasp the hare's neck without the help of tools.

It's a strange shrub.

Unlike the shrubs seen on earth before, this plant has the same shape as a vine, but the leaves are slender and delicate, spreading across the land in a zigzag shape. The vines went up and down to form some intersecting gaps, just enough for the water rabbit to pass through, but for Xu Mo, he only needed to step over to the sparse point of the vines.

Shrubs and grasses were almost the only plants here, and although Xu Mo didn't know the varieties of these plants, fortunately, there were many similarities with the plants he had come into contact with in the past, allowing him to speculate.

The branches of this vine were very hard, and Xu Mo decided to use these plants to make a spear, at least so that he could easily stab those fast hares.

Before the sun set, Xu Mo found a long withered vine, although the lack of water made the vine no longer flexible, but the hardness was even better. He found some sharpened stones on the hills, polished them, and tied them to the dead wood with thin branches, and made a hard, rough spear.

Half of the sun's body is already hidden below the horizon, and it usually takes advantage of the last hours to recklessly emit the afterglow of the setting sun around the surroundings, dyeing the clear blue sky a mesmerizing purple, where the sun is the master of everything.

Xu Mo found that he didn't know when he was surrounded by a group of water rabbits, they were gnawing on the tender and juicy leaves of the long-leaved vine, while looking curiously at what Xu Mo was doing, for their boring life, even if the color of the leaves was a little scarce, it was worth thinking about eating again and again, not to mention that this strange two-legged monster was doing the same strange thing.

Xu Mo was very annoyed by these water rabbits, he brandished his spear and prepared to try the possibility of killing the rabbit again, and even tried to throw the spear through the rabbit, but the target of the spear was the same as the rabbit's watery eyes, laughing at Xu Mo's incompetence at the moment.

Hunger is a big problem, but seeing that those rabbits are gnawing on the tender leaves so fragrant, Xu Mo also picked some leaves from the vines and stuffed them into his mouth to chew, and those who can eat rabbits should not be able to die if they eat them.

Those young leaves are surprisingly delicious, and after the plump leaves are put in the mouth and chewed, they explode the tender juice. A strange milky flavor bloomed in Xu Mo's mouth, as if he was tasting a cookie-flavored milkshake. Xu Mo hurriedly scooped up the leaves of the surrounding vines, this natural and refreshing taste was rare even on earth, not to mention that he was hungry.

The sun was soon setting, and Xu Mo was in a hurry, and finally made a strong net with the tender branches. He had to think carefully about his plan to catch the rabbit, or he would probably not be able to leave this place without a hint of civilization.
