Nest-Building Mission
Mystra.
Northeast corner of Pearl Plains.
With the help of the Ether Witch.
The area around the star beast's corpse has become a forbidden zone.
The layers of magical barriers and Devil Guard would not allow any living creature to approach this place.
Not to mention those with ulterior motives.
In fact.
Near the corpse of the Star Beast.
Only Roger can stay for an extended period.
The pervasive nature of Aberrant Matter means that anyone who gets close to them could be contaminated.
Even Roger, who was Spell Resistance.
They also carefully put on protective gear such as the "Ascension Feather Garment".
And from time to time, he would use the "Jade Phoenix True Fire" he had collected to warm himself up.
So that you won't be unaware that the Aberrant Matter have seeped into your bone marrow.
at the moment.
Roger is using the Jade Phoenix True Fire to clean up the remaining rotting corpses.
It has to be admitted.
The Mythical Creature Yu Feng seems to be a natural nemesis of Aberrant Matter.
The flames that flowed around this creature when it was asleep.
Just a little bit is needed.
It can eliminate large swathes of rotten flesh filled with Aberrant Matter.
"No wonder Hongye insisted on staying next to the Jade Phoenix Nest all this time!"
"He might not just want to use the divine fire of the Jade Phoenix Nest to burn off his already deformed tail..."
"Yu Feng's ability to control Aberrant Matter is what he truly desires!"
Watching those pieces of rotting flesh turn into pitch-black ash.
Roger was also filled with mixed emotions.
This scene also perfectly confirms the clues from the Jade Phoenix Nest incident.
fortunately.
Yu Feng ultimately ended up in his hands!
"Hint: The Jade Phoenix True Fire in the ' Unknown Penholder ' is about to run out! Please collect and refill it!"
We spent the whole afternoon grilling.
The Jade Phoenix True Fire collected earlier has been used up.
Roger had to stop what he was doing.
He then quickly returned to the Xia Yin Realm.
Visiting Yu Feng.
Cough cough...
What's so interesting about wild pheasants?
Roger was actually going to visit Jade Phoenix True Fire.
As for the Jade Phoenix True Fire...
Even Roger had to admit it.
This thing is truly domineering and ferocious.
He tried many methods to collect it.
The results were all failures!
On one occasion, he did not hesitate to use the power of his rank to contain the Jade Phoenix True Fire.
However, the true fire showed him, the Jade Phoenix Mage, absolutely no respect.
The Slaughter Authority Rank is immediately damaged.
If it weren't just a Little Fire...
Roger probably suffered even greater losses!
This is evident.
This Jade Phoenix True Fire powerful!
Roger learned from the knowledge that Jade Phoenix Mage possessed.
Ordinary fire-control methods cannot control it.
Only Yu Feng herself can control it at will.
But Roger was not willing to give up.
He certainly wouldn't give up something so good so easily.
So, as is customary.
He started taking things out of his Tinder Pouch again to try the exhaustive method, and this time the effect was immediate.
Because when Roger's Slaughter Authority Rank was first burned by the Jade Phoenix True Fire.
One of the items in the Tinder Pouch seemed to react slightly.
By the time Roger noticed it.
That thing was already glowing with a silvery light!
It was a pen holder made entirely of Fish Scale Porcelain!
On the data panel.
"The Unknown Penholder (Odd Object)"
"Use:???"
"Time for Qi Fate Synchronization: 4 years"
"Hint: The Unknown Penholder seems to be able to contain the Jade Phoenix True Fire..."
Roger slapped his forehead at that moment.
"It's ringing!"
"This pen holder is a strange object found on the riverbank behind the Jade Phoenix Nest!"
"Martial Arts Jade Slip containing the ' Sound Transmission into the Secret ' technique was found along with this thing!"
This thing is very likely the treasure of the Qi Refiner or Martial Artist who accompanied Yu Feng back then!
Although no Qi Fate Synchronization.
But collecting flames is something like that.
Only basic gas injection is needed.
Pen holders have a high air requirement.
It was so high that even Roger couldn't stand it anymore.
Each time it inhaled and exhaled Jade Phoenix True Fire.
It will charge Roger nearly forty to fifty thousand units of gas!
If Roger weren't so confident now...
Just collecting flames would drain him dry.
As for burning the remains with real fire.
That would be even more strenuous.
Fortunately, after two practice sessions...
Roger's proficiency with the pen holder has improved considerably.
The pen holders have also become more understated.
The two sides reached a tacit understanding.
Roger was in charge of providing the gas.
The pen holder was responsible for extinguishing, storing, and setting off fires.
Nevertheless.
After each fire was set.
Roger always felt that this guy had swallowed at most half of the flames and only spat them out.
It is evident that this strange object also possesses its own spirit.
In response to this.
Roger was not angry, but pleased.
Having a spiritual quality is a good thing! Having a spiritual quality.
Only with methods like "Intelligence Reduction Hand" can one find a way to utilize their abilities! "Looks like it's time to Qi Fate Synchronization with this strange object to my daily tasks!"
This thought came to mind.
Roger deftly gathered a round of flames.
They then hurriedly returned to the Prime Material Plane.
After burning all the remaining debris.
On this barren land.
All that's left is a pile of restless ashes!
Roger stared at the pile of ashes.
It was as if he were staring at the face of the Slaughter Mask.
I could vaguely see the scene of the dagger falling to the ground.
That instant.
The Perception Authority has been triggered once again!
On the data panel.
"Ascension Perception: You have sensed the anomaly of a ' Vortex Creature ' within the Divine Fire Ashes!"
"You have gained knowledge: Vortex Creature and Divine Fire Ashes"
"Vortex Creature: A group of creatures born from the ' Dark Vortex ', also known as ' Vortex Creature '."
The exact location of the Dark Vortex remains a mystery.
People only know that it is located deep in the starry sky.
Or rather...
the other side..."
I quickly skimmed through the first knowledge point.
Roger quickly realized that this was within the knowledge about Vortex Creature.
It is filled with a lot of speculation and conjecture.
Some believe that the Dark Vortex is a mirror universe of the Nine Great Planets.
It is the reflection of the Nine Great Planets in the water.
That mirror is naturally the ' Abyss of Destruction ' at the bottom of the Nine Great Planets.
According to this statement...
The Dark Vortex lies beneath the Abyss of Destruction.
That is the origin of the Vortex Creature.
It is also the source of Aberrant Matter.
This theory also suggests that the Vortex Creature ' mission is to carry various Aberrant Matter from the bottom of the Abyss of Destruction to the Nine Great Planets.
Ultimately, it will pollute the entire universe.
Another view holds that—
The Vortex Creature are just one special group among the Nine Great Planets that are more capable of attracting or even containing Aberrant Matter.
They are not naturally filled with Aberrant Matter.
Rather, it is due to various reasons that it is particularly favored by Aberrant Matter.
This theory has even spawned some terrifying conspiracy theories.
Claims such as "the Vortex Creature are actually vessels used by the gods to seal the Aberrant Matter" and "behind every Vortex Creature is a universe invaded by Aberrant Matter" are made.
These statements seem quite logical.
Logically, it is self-consistent.
The only drawback is that there is no evidence whatsoever.
After all, this matter involves a very high level of sophistication.
Those who have access to this type of knowledge.
They must at least be promoted to a higher level.
But after Roger finished browsing through the information about the Vortex Creature...
On the contrary, I feel that those conspiracy theories are quite credible.
He didn't have any reason.
It was purely based on intuition.
"Could it be because of the behavior of Messenary and Telodal that I have a bad impression of the gods?"
"Um..."
"Logically speaking, the gods must have some means to combat the Aberrant Matter, right?"
Roger let his imagination run wild.
In comparison.
The second piece of knowledge is quite clear.
"Divine Fire Ashes: A strange product left after the Jade Phoenix True Fire has burned out."
For a long time to come, these ashes will emit extremely high heat.
This timeframe is roughly the same as Yu Feng's lifespan.
That is precisely why.
These ashes are often used by the Jade Phoenix to build its nest.
"Hint: You have obtained the raw materials to forge a new Jade Phoenix Nest!"
"Jade Phoenix Nest Building Quest detected. Accept?"
"Quest Name: Forging the Jade Phoenix Nest (New)"
"Task Description: Help the young Yu Feng build a nest of her own."
Nest building requirements: - Ashes Field; - Phoenix Forest; - Primitive Cave or Primitive Blessed Land; - Hunting Ground; - Place of Prayer; - Training Ground;
..."
"Task Reward: Yu Feng's Favorability +100;"
Mythical Creature attraction +100%;
Mythical Creature worshippers gain +1000% ability;
Reputation (Nine Great Planets) +200;
Randomly select one mythical weapon
"Hmm? Mythical weapons? Do you mean weapons related to Mythical Creature?"
Roger became slightly interested.
He studied it carefully.
In addition to the "mythical weapon", they discovered other things.
The increased attraction of "Mythical Creature" is also a very beneficial reward.
The extraordinary nature of Mythical Creature can be seen from Little Jade Phoenix alone.
The other Mythical Creature must also have their own extraordinary qualities.
However, from the perspective of scarcity...
There are very few Mythical Creature on the entire Nine Great Planets.
There are usually 2 to 3 of each Mythical Creature at the same time.
If Roger were surrounded by more Mythical Creature...
Then it is undoubtedly a powerful force!
As for the task itself.
"It's just building a house for the little wild chickens, isn't it?"
There is no time limit either.
"Let's keep playing..."
Roger confirmed without hesitation! Then...
He spent another half a day on it.
The pen holder was used to collect all the Divine Fire Ashes.
That concludes the discussion.
The terrible traces of the Pearl Plains have disappeared from the northeast corner.
The concentration of the Aberrant Matter has also been reduced to an extremely low level.
Roger quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
This matter is settled.
Little Jade Phoenix is still in hibernation.
I can finally go back to Clear Spring Mountain and take a look!
At present.
He left a squad of Horned Demon Warrior to guard the ruins of the Dinosaur Manor.
He then greeted the Witch.
Then he rushed back to his hometown.
Who knew that as soon as I entered the house...
Then they received some astonishing news—
"What?"
"Has the Sea Serpent Queen been imprisoned on the desolate continent?"
"Is it fake news?"
In response to Ji Qiu's report.
Roger couldn't help but blurt it out.
Clear Spring Sect.
Side hall of the Saint Tiger Pavilion.
When Cecilia appeared before Roger with a worried expression.
He then realized that this was probably true!
So he immediately adjusted his mindset.
Listening attentively to Cecilia's narration—
"... That's how it is."
"There were actually some bad omens before the Queen set off, but she didn't expect the situation on the Ancient Desolate Continent to be even more unusual than she imagined. She faced considerable restrictions there..."
"It's been more than a week since the Queen was trapped. Even her most trusted personal agent couldn't contact Queen. Luckily, a seabird was just passing by..."
"Probably to avoid being discovered."
The divine magical mark hidden on the seabird contained only two pieces of information:
The first message was a distress signal, specifically requesting your help; the second message mentioned the Queen's experiences on the Ancient Desolate Continent.
She said she encountered Quinan and Mystra, as well as the Celestial Gods Race, on the Ancient Desolate Continent!
In conclusion.
The situation on the Ancient Desolate Continent seems to be very complicated.
Lord Roger.
This time, it seems only you can do it!
Cecilia pleaded, her face full of sorrow.
Roger nodded solemnly.
The Immortal-grade Beya was imprisoned on the East Continent of Quenan.
This is truly a fantastical thing.
But when it actually happened...
Roger doesn't need to be questioned too much.
He only needs to think about the hidden information and logic within it:
"The East Continent is indeed not on the normal map of the game in my previous life..."
"The ecology there is almost completely isolated from the world, inhabited only by Totem God and ancient natives."
"Who has imprisoned the Queen?"
"Totem God? Surely not..."
After a moment's thought.
Roger first calmed down Cecilia, who was very agitated.
Only then did they begin to seriously perform the divination.
Unfortunately, the divination results were, as always, unsatisfactory.
The entire East Continent of Quenan seemed to be shrouded in mist.
It makes it impossible to see the depth of its meaning.
Roger sensed the presence of numerous restrictions.
And the distortion of some of the laws.
In fact.
The East Continent had never been so mysterious before.
The Queen also visited the Ancient Desolate Continent several times when she roamed the seas.
I had never encountered this situation before.
More importantly.
The Queen sent out a distress signal.
But she did not specify who the enemy was.
This shouldn't be the case!
"Could it be..."
"Who the enemy is doesn't matter."
"Or are they all enemies?"
Roger became more and more confused.
Things have come to this.
Thinking too much is pointless.
Beatrice is Roger's most important ally.
Of course, we should help if we can.
Now the two stars are integrated.
Quinan's troubles naturally meant Mystra's troubles as well.
Not to mention that the Queen also mentioned "Quinan, Mystra, and the Celestial Gods Race" in her distress signal! This shows that...
The formation of the binary system also had a huge impact on Quinan!
Due to a sudden distress signal.
The journey to the Ancient Desolate Continent was naturally imminent.
But Roger didn't rush to Quinan immediately.
For him.
Clear Spring Mountain is equally important.
But right now, there's something at Clear Spring Mountain that he needs to deal with! In fact...
This happened after he returned to the mountain.
The first priority in Ji Qiu's report!
Ji Qiu's original words are as follows—
"Sect Master!"
"A fierce battle broke out in the Great Secret Realm in the Northern Continent a few days ago!"
"It seems the outcome of the battle is already in."
"That Great Secret Realm over there has a new master!"
"And that new master specifically asked to meet you!"
The Great Secret Realm of the North?
So fast? That was Roger's first reaction upon hearing the news.
The next second.
He immediately activated his "Specialty: Phenomenon Management".
Let's start reviewing the 'videotapes' from a few days ago!...
