Puyo!
"Puhaha~!"
Moss threw herself onto Little Ball, sighing with contentment.
I'm back!!!
She had finally returned to the cave where she first transmigrated!
After her clan was annihilated by the Black Rats, the Black Rats seemed not to have settled in this cave.
Except for the bloodstains on the ground that had completely dried out after five months, the environment inside the cave was the same as before.
In fact, because there had been no living creatures for a long time, the smell inside the cave, apart from a bit of mustiness, was much better than outside!
Moss rolled over and silently gazed at the uneven rock wall above her head.
"..."
After a long while, Moss let out a long sigh, and a strange sound escaped her lips.
"Hmph! Hmph... Ahhhh~"
Moss collapsed onto Little Ball as if she had lost all strength, but her mind kept replaying her previous experiences. She couldn't help but mutter to herself:
"Adventurer's Guild, City Guard, Sect..."
From the fragmented words of just three people, Moss had a general understanding of the current world's direction.
The Adventurer's Guild, as expected, was a non-governmental organization for the common people, with the largest numbers but also the greatest fluctuation in strength.
The two official organizations, the City Guard and the Sect, should be the police and military of this country.
"Is this country called Dragon Country now? The appearance and language are the same as the country I was in in my previous life. It can be considered a parallel universe counterpart..."
However, after centuries of being invaded by monsters, Moss wouldn't believe that this country would be the same as the peaceful country of her previous life.
Perhaps the social system had even regressed!
After all, as soon as there was unequal power, there would definitely be people who wanted to be in high positions, even dictators!
"Speaking of which, what exactly is that special profession, [Qi Cultivator]! Why is this world so chaotic?!"
"Suddenly, an Eastern-style profession appeared. The eight basic professions are Western-style. I thought it would be a world of swords and magic!"
"So this world is a combination of things?!"
Moss rubbed her forehead in distress, her heart inexplicably drawn to the profession of Qi Cultivator.
Of course, she wasn't thinking of switching to become a Qi Cultivator. With her current conditions, it was debatable whether she could even switch to it.
What Moss cared about was the meaning behind the term "Qi Cultivator"!
"Absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, refining the essence of the sun and moon!"
Qi Cultivators, they were the first batch of people who pursued longevity!
Refining Qi, refining Qi, what kind of Qi is this "Qi" being refined?
Is this Qi the Qi within the body? Or the Qi outside the body?
Does the term Qi Cultivator in this world mean the same thing as what Moss had in mind?
If the Qi being refined comes from this heaven and earth, is this Qi the Magic Substance?
If so, it would mean that some people in this world had already mastered the method of absorbing Magic Substance!
The talent trees of the eight basic professions should not be too different in theory, so there must be only Meditation Body Refinement as the method of cultivation!
However, these special professions might have mastered the second or even third method, far beyond what the basic professions could compare to!
Moss had reason to believe that countries in this world that had not yet been wiped out by monsters would definitely have special professions!
And these special professions would definitely possess cultivation methods different from the basic professions, and they would be faster and more powerful!
Without a doubt, special professions were definitely better than basic professions!
Although it wasn't that basic professions were bad, having a special profession was equivalent to having a shortcut!
So, how should one become a special profession?
The answer was obviously very clear!
That is, the method of cultivation!
Simply put, the difference between a Qi Cultivator and an ordinary person was mastering the cultivation technique!
The difference in cultivation methods was the key to creating special professions!
"So, to become stronger, researching methods to absorb external Magic Substance is essential..."
Moss muttered to herself, and her heart found a new direction for the future!
However, Moss was not in a hurry for these matters. It was obvious that these were things to be considered after reaching Silver Rank.
The Bronze Rank stage should be the so-called beginner phase for Awakened Ones.
"I really have to thank those three people. Not only did they deal with those Fire Lizards, but they also gave me more information about this world."
Moss sat on Little Ball, feeding it her restored mana while chatting with it.
'Thanks? Thanks!'
"Yeah, if we get the chance later, we should definitely repay them... Go watch the entrance."
Moss patted Little Ball, then ordered it to block the cave entrance and watch out for any approaching enemies.
'Yes, Master!'
Puyo!
Little Ball responded cheerfully and hopped towards the cave entrance.
Moss glanced at it, then turned to survey her surroundings. She looked up at the cave ceiling, only a few centimeters above her head, and said softly:
"I still need to expand this..."
Moss wasn't fond of the low cave dug by rats, so she began digging!
With her innate talent for digging and her sharp claws, excavating the cave was effortless.
In less than half an hour, Moss had finished expanding the original cave!
Moss had dug out the original cave into an almost circular, meter-wide opening, and had also increased the height by about half a meter!
In the center, Moss left a rock pillar for support, though she wasn't sure if it was actually useful.
For the excavated debris and soil, Moss chose to block part of the entrance.
She left only three L-shaped passages connecting to the outside, and Little Ball helped transport the rest of the dirt outside to be discarded.
"Done!"
Moss stood in the large cave, nodding with satisfaction as she looked at her work.
Next, Moss began summoning items stored in her Pet Space!
Besides the small belongings she had brought during her move, the most important were the corpse of the Silver Rank Flame Marsh Lizard and its Magic Core!
Bang!
The half-meter-long Flame Marsh Lizard appeared in the cave, instantly occupying half of the previously spacious opening!
Moss's luggage and the Magic Core appeared beside her!
"Hoo—!"
Moss let out a long sigh, looking at the Flame Marsh Lizard, a smile spreading across her face!
Although the Magic Core and claws had already been removed, the remaining parts were still very useful to Moss!
The meat alone was enough for her to eat her fill!
She reached out and touched the Flame Marsh Lizard, feeling the corpse that was still radiating heat, a flicker of excitement in her eyes!
"Such rich Magic Substance! It hasn't dissipated even after death. Truly worthy of a Silver Rank Monster."
"I wonder what this thing tastes like?"
Moss hadn't eaten warm food in a long time and couldn't help but wipe the drool from the corner of her mouth.
However, she didn't forget what she needed to do next and shifted her attention away from the Flame Marsh Lizard's corpse.
Moss turned her gaze to the fire-attribute Magic Core that had fallen on the ground!
"Can I eat this?"
Moss asked herself as if in doubt, and her body provided the answer!
The surge of craving erupting from within her was constantly telling Moss!
You can eat it! Eat it quickly!!!
Moss picked up the Magic Core. Seeing the crystal lump, which was as big as her forehead, she started to worry.
"It's so big, how am I supposed to eat it?"
Moss looked at it and then tentatively took a bite!
Crack!
A crisp sound echoed, and Moss felt a powerful surge of energy from the crystal in her hand!
Moss felt her hand lighten as the Magic Core instantly vanished!
Shocked!
An expression of utter shock appeared on Moss's face, not just because of the immense energy from the Magic Core, but also because of the voice that sounded in her mind!
