1488 Into the mountain
The Dark Stone stored in the village was collected by Raymond.
The amount of cotton ore that can store 'Phantom Smoke' is small, but it makes Raymond very satisfied.
Some of the ores that Uru called 'relatively rare' were also taken out of the vault and re-sorted and packaged, while those ores that were common in the underworld were selected from the relatively high quality parts of them, and stored in separate categories and thrown into Raymond's storage ring.
The sorting and identification of hundreds of ores caused Raymond to delay a lot of time in the village.
The cultivation sites of the underworld plants, which occupy more than ninety percent of the entire village, have also been screened and screened under Ulu's inspection, and some of the varieties that will not bring prosperity to the village have been eradicated, and those that can make the village develop have been asked to expand the planting area.
Some of the rare and ripe parts that can be picked are picked and processed after Ulu identification, and eventually become part of Raymond's harvest.
Of course, Raymond, who valued these resources valued by Phantom Butterflies, did not receive them in vain, but gave away two defensive spells that could be used by Phantom Butterflies, which was considered compensation in disguise.
It's just that what Raymond didn't expect was that such a gift made Grand Elder Cytheus cry and thank him, grateful to the point of incredibly grateful, and Uru was stunned when he saw those two magic weapons.
The two defensive weapons randomly selected from the storage ring were both collected by Raymond when he was in the underground plane earlier, and the level was not very high. Therefore, he was extremely strange about the realization of Grand Elder Cytheus and Uru in this way, so he naturally asked the reason.
"Master, such defensive spells are extremely rare and precious in the Underworld. Only lichs who have reached the intermediate level or above can try to control zuò......"
Uru, who was full of envy, closed his eyes when he said this, so that he looked away, and then smiled bitterly. "Even I, Uru, who was once regarded as the one with the highest potential under the command of the Great Lich of Tulis, was awarded the 'Pillar of Broken Illusion' because of the accumulation of years of meritorious service, and you are really too generous, master......"
Hearing this, Raymond couldn't help but be a little speechless, and after thinking about it, he couldn't help but ask. "Isn't it just some low-level magic weapon, are the lichs of the underworld so embarrassed?"
"The Lich possesses more than enough abilities to compensate for its lack of artifacts, not to mention the fact that their life boxes are close to immortality if they are not discovered. Naturally, I don't care much about these artifacts......"
The understanding of the lich made the young girl Becky explain, and then shouted at the grateful Elder Theseus. "Just now, I noticed that you were telling Xiao Jima again, you don't want to make a name for yourself in the location of the Soul Sacrifice Fruit Tree. Otherwise, when we return, the village will be gone!"
"Don't dare, don't dare! Little Hima knows where to take you, so please be merciful when picking the Soul Sacrifice Fruit, and don't damage the Soul Sacrifice Fruit Tree......"
The Great Elder of Cytheus, who held those two magic weapons in his arms, didn't dare to say anything, and smiled from ear to ear. It relieved the dull atmosphere that had been formed before because of Little Hima.
Separation is imminent. Little Hima, who had been stubborn before, actually howled when she was sent out of the village by her people, especially the young phantom butterflies of her age, and muttered around it, making it even more sad.
Considering that the spirit of the enchantment protecting the village was in a weak state, Raymond, after consulting with Grand Elder Theseus, set up a counterattack-type talisman at the entrance of the mountain path, completely sealing the village.
Although Uru swore that the village would never be known to the Great Lich of Tallis, in order to prevent accidents, Raymond deliberately strengthened the rune array to ensure that a guy of Uru's strength could not be defeated.
But after hitting the road. Becky, the girl sitting on Raymond's left shoulder, said in a voice. "You didn't set up the Overlapping Talisman to imprison them in the village, did you?"
"It's also right to be set up for the sake of protection, don't you think it's better?"
Becky, the girl who pouted when she heard Raymond's answer. But when he was angry. "Lord Raymond, it seems that you are afraid that Old Man Cytheus will rebel, so you trapped them all in the village!"
"I'm still not at ease with Septus, who knows if it will do something to keep the position of the Hidden Clan......"
Raymond's truthful answer made the teenage girl Becky laugh, tugging at the broken hair in his ear to show her displeasure, and then began the retreat.
Two days later, the team found that the wetlands on the other side of the river had been changed by the vain uplift, and had quickly become steep peaks.
The low mountains on this side of the river also merged with the landform on the other side of the river, narrowing the river in vain and becoming turbulent and surging.
Resentful and fearful of Uru the Butterfly, Hima had been depressed since she left her village, but when she saw the landscape, she approached Raymond and opened her mouth. "My lord, the Great Elder said that the Soul Sacrifice Fruit located at the source of the river is estimated to mature in a year, but the Soul Sacrifice Fruit Tree located in the Seabuckthorn Plain, which is two months away from here, should mature in three months, you see......"
"Do you need to go through the source of this river to get to that valley?"
"You can pass through, but you will take a detour. ”
After Hima answered, Raymond asked about the Butterfly Uru, although he was not familiar with the lofty mountains in front of him, but after calculating according to the direction pointed out by Hima, he told Raymond that even if it took a lot of time to detour.
Since it won't take too much time, it is natural to go to the source of the river first, and after confirming that the soul sacrifice fruit there is not yet ripe, then consider rushing to the next place.
But after entering the lofty mountains, the very entangled Himma pleaded again. "My lord, although the guardians of the Soul Sacrifice Fruit Tree there have nothing to do with the village, they are aware of the existence of our village due to the distance, can you not alarm them when you go to investigate?"
"Little one, if you want to explore the Soul Sacrifice Fruit Tree, you naturally need to enter it, how can you avoid the guardians there!"
Uru, who was annoyed when he heard this, unceremoniously questioned it, but because of this, it also made Hima shrink and fearful, and she didn't dare to speak again.
Hima, who had been extremely bold in the face of the possible destruction of her village, became so cringed after hitting the road that Raymond was a little puzzled, and after asking Uru to stay away, he asked why.
But Himma's answer made Raymond laugh and cry.
It turned out that the little guy was actually afraid of Ulu the Butterfly of Resentment, so that it became more and more afraid to face it, let alone defend it in front of it.
"My lord, I know that it will be difficult to hide from those guardians to reach the location of the Soul Sacrifice Fruit Tree, but in the Soul Sacrifice Fruit Tree in the Land of the River, I heard from the Great Elder that its guardians have conflicts with each other, so if you are careful, you can avoid them from detecting it......"
Facing Hima, who had a pleading and expectant expression on her face, Raymond couldn't help frowning. "But the Soul Fruit Tree is underground, and the closer you get, the narrower it becomes, and I can't give any guarantee if you want to sneak in between the guardians......
Hearing this, Jima was excited, and shook her hands and shouted in surprise. "No guarantees, no guarantees, as long as you want to! Even if they find out in the end, they won't think it's because of our village......"
I didn't expect it to be because of this reason, and Jima was extremely dull and entangled along the way, so Raymond also promised to make it not discovered by those guardians when he arrived at the source of the river to explore the Soul Fruit Tree, and tried not to cause the Guardians of the Soul Fruit Tree to think of the village of the Phantom Butterfly.
After the psychological burden was relieved, Hima became a little more active, but Raymond entered the mountains along the river, but soon after he was attracted by the peaks on both sides of the river...... (To be continued......)
