“……”

Alex's body collapsed in front of Lindsay, and he quickly ran out of breath.

This big businessman whose skills have reached the sixth stage is not to mention the dominance of the world during his lifetime, and he is also an absolute powerhouse who controls the power of one side.

But at this moment, it is still a cold corpse after all.

"Whew-"

Lindsey sighed.

He inexplicably remembered the dragon beast on the Black Mountain.

No matter how brilliant life is, the ending brought by death is always equal.

Revivalists are not alive in the sense of life, and they have a huge problem of hostility to the living.

But return to the world with memories of the past......

It's really their turn, and how many people can resist such temptation?

Thinking so in his heart, Lindsay activated his skills, stepped forward and bent down to touch it, and successfully collected materials from the corpse of the big merchant.

[Consumables: Essentia Nucleus (Essence Extraction)]

[After use, the Awakened within 50 meters in diameter will not be able to control the essentia normally; Duration: 15 minutes; This ability is not valid on Awakened Persons above Stage 6. 】

[Quite a rare essentia condensation entity with high value.] 】

“……”

It's still the same thing, and Lindsey keeps it on the crafting table.

A formula emerges, along with a rather familiar name for the item.

[Essentia Emblem + Nucleus of Essentia (Essence Extraction) = Essentia Circuit (Abstract Replacement)]

"Essentia Coat of Arms......

Lindsay muttered under her mouth.

When killing the last Stage 5 Awakener, he gains a Essentia Seed.

[Essentia Seed] can be used alone to increase the probability of ordinary people becoming awakened. Take the three-in-one formula to get a [essentia crest].

"I haven't got the synthesis materials for the coat of arms yet, but I got the materials for the high-level synthesis needs first?"

“……”

"Lindsay, are you alright?"

While Lindsay was thinking, Qingqi also rushed over.

She tugged the floating merchant necklace in her hand, suppressed the essentia interference caused by Alikun, and began to examine Lindsay's body.

"There is no injury in the body, there is no problem with the breath of life, and the left hand is ......"

"Left hand?! Lindsay, how did that power disappear in your left hand! ”

Qing Qi's expression was shocked, and he subconsciously retreated two steps back.

Of course, she remembered the eighth-order power that had descended just now, and at this moment, the erosion of the skill on Lindsay's arm had suddenly disappeared, making Qing Qi inevitably have scruples.

"The force that just came down belongs to the will of the forest itself."

"Because of some historical problems, it helped me to remove the hidden danger on my arm, and I am gone at the moment."

Lindsay immediately explained.

In fact, seeing Qingqi's reaction, Lindsay was very grateful.

The will of the forest is undoubtedly the existence of the eighth stage.

After the other party appeared, he disappeared immediately.

A normal person observes this change, and the logic of the mind basically thinks that Lindsay is being attacked.

But under the tremendous pressure of facing the hostility of the eighth stage.

Qing Zhu still rushed in without hesitation, ready to help him.

Even if this favor has no effect, it can be called full of weight, and it is more worthy of the strong teaching of the elders.

There are opportunities in the future.

He must go to Volcano City to repay the other party for this kind of care.

Meanwhile.

Hearing Lindsay's answer, Qingqi's gaze shifted to the weapon in Lindsay's hand:

"Your weapon was also given by the will of the forest?"

It was an ordinary-looking wooden spear.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, Lindsay had just punctured Alex's defenses with this thing.

Qing Qi would never believe that this was actually a powerful weapon!

Lindsey nodded slightly:

"Pretty much."

This wooden spear was indeed something he had just acquired.

But it wasn't the seed left by the will of the forest that developed.

It's Lindsay's hand, my hand, my left hand! After completing the quest, you will receive one of the three Legendary Plant Seeds.

[Magic Seed/Material: Iris of the Eternal Night]

[When the Iris of the Eternal Night is in full bloom, it will forcibly transform the surrounding environment into [Polar Night]; The effect lasts for 7 years and then ends, or until the flower is destroyed. 】

[The terrible plant that forcibly locks in day and night is incalculable. 】

【Magical Seed: Brilliant Iron Stone Tree】

[The Ironstone Tree will produce fruit on a regular basis; The fruit is composed of metals, which are highly powerful high-grade metals. 】

[Tree species that can produce high-grade metals are extremely valuable.] 】

In addition to the above two legendary plant seeds.

The last seed given by the quest reward was directly cultivated by Lindsay and became the weapon he held in his hand.

[Weapon/Consumables: Red Horn Mistletoe Parasite]

[The red horned mistletoe is used as a weapon, and can pierce defense techniques within six stages; If used as a spear or arrow, it can be used as a single use, and the power is enough to penetrate the defenses of the seven-stage technique and grow rapidly in the enemy's body. 】

[A powerful demon-breaking weapon, extremely valuable. 】

One is incalculable, and two are extremely valuable.

The task of clearing the power of the Crown of Extermination, the reward given is also worthy of the strength of the grade.

"Lindsay?"

At this moment, Alini on the side also approached.

When she heard Qingqi's name during the conversation, her eyes fell on Lindsay, who had Concierge's appearance, and she quickly reacted:

"You're pretending to be Mr. Conch?"

"Haha-"

When Lindsay heard this, she changed back to her original appearance and smiled at the surprised Alene:

"I look like Mr. Conch, and for a reason."

Lindsey prepares to explain to Aleni why she's here.

But before he could continue, Qing Zhu next to him stepped between the two and looked at the girl in front of him with a scrutinizing gaze:

"Lindsay, you have a good relationship with this girl?"

Lindsey replied very seriously:

"Ms. Qingqi, Alini is my friend, a very good friend!"

“……”

Qing Zhu didn't say a word.

She has never had a good impression of the profession of a businessman, and so has Aleni in front of her.

The female scholar and Lindsay looked at each other.

The two looked at each other seriously for a moment, and then Qing Qi gave up the topic of Eleini, and turned his head to ask about other things that had just happened:

"Lindsay, you just said that it was the will of the forest that helped you heal your injuries?"

Lindsay understands Qingqi's concern.

He took the initiative to omit the middle conversation process and told Qing Yu what he wanted to know:

"The will of the forest is not hostile, but it is almost integrated with the world, and there is no way to be independent of consciousness anymore."

"Lost your sense of self......"

Qing Qi's brows furrowed.

For any awakened person who wants to advance to the eighth stage, the loss of self-awareness is an unacceptable price.

Most of the top scholars in Volcano City are holders of life essence.

It's not as urgent as other mainstream professions.

"Hmmm......"

"But it's a success story, and it's about living systems."

Qing Zhu analyzed it for a while, and soon made a decision:

"Lindsay, I must hurry up and report this matter to the Codification Society."

"Now that you've healed your injuries, go back with me."

Lindsay immediately shook her head in refusal.

"No, I'm going to Echo Valley."

Qing Qi raised his eyebrows, anger sprung up, and he was about to open his mouth to reprimand.

But before the other person speaks.

Lindsey took the lead and pointed to his chest and came up with a very good reason:

"Lady Qingqi, you also know that I have both essentia cultivation in my body, which will cause very big trouble. But according to the will of the forest, there may be a chance to solve this hidden danger on the side of Echo Valley! ”
