Roger was delighted to see this and quickly inserted his hand.

The nest was damp, warm, and hard.

He groped around with his hands for a while.

There are about 20 Johnny Turtle Egg in this nest.

Each egg was about the size of Roger's palm.

He picked up an egg, held it to his ear, and shook it gently; only a very slight, muffled sound was heard.

He tried to put Sin Mark on the turtle eggs.

It actually worked!

The next second, Roger slapped the eggshell!

Shattering Palm.

Some fine lines appeared on the eggshell.

There were no other unusual developments.

However, a completely new notification has appeared on the data panel.

"You killed a Johnny Turtle."

You have gained 9 XP points.

"Your lifespan has increased by 31,536,000 seconds!"

"Wuhu!"

Roger was overjoyed.

This is so awesome!

If I had known that killing the eggs was the same as killing the turtle, why would I have bothered killing the turtle at all! In his laughter, he inevitably used a little too much force, and a small crack appeared in the turtle's shell.

A golden, jelly-like, viscous substance slowly flowed out.

He hurriedly took a clean bowl from the crucible and put the viscous substance in it.

"This taste... it's exactly the same as ' Turtle Power Fortifier '?"

Roger put his index finger on his tongue and licked it.

A pungent, fishy smell.

There's still a bit of a rush.

He had an idea and took some jelly-like substances and put them into the crucible to extract and separate the elements.

The results show...

This jelly is actually a 4-fold concentrated version of Vitality Elixir! It's even more effective than Roger's homemade "Turtle Power Fortifier"!

Looking at the nest of Johnny Turtle Egg in the snow.

Roger's eyes welled up with tears.

A cold wind howled, and the melting snow brought a deep chill.

In this empty, desolate Water Ghost Forest.

Only these "Turtle Power Plus" creatures could bring him a little bit of warmth!

He swept away all the turtle eggs with lightning speed.

Then he put the broken egg in his palm.

Select the broken egg with your gaze.

At this point, the expertise of another good friend came in handy.

Ultimate Hunter!

Start up!

Golden dotted lines suddenly appeared in Roger's field of vision.

These dotted lines point to different directions within the Water Ghost Forest.

He lowered his head and gently rubbed the broken egg with his fingers.

Then he sniffed the broken egg.

Finally, he stuck out his tongue and licked the shell, then licked the remaining bits of "Turtle Power Plus".

"Ultimate Hunter: Target Basic Information locked, known traces +10"

"Ultimate Hunter: Locks onto target's hardness, known traces +5"

"Ultimate Hunter: Lock onto the target's scent, known traces +20"

"Ultimate Hunter: Lock onto the target's taste, known traces +5"

A large number of dotted lines disappeared.

Instead, solid golden lines point directly to the target! This is the power of the Ultimate Hunter.

As long as the location of the turtle nest intersects with the route the mother turtles crawl before laying their eggs, it can find all the potential turtle nests in the Water Ghost Forest!

Following the guidance of the Ultimate Hunter.

Roger embarked on his joyful egg-collecting journey.

In order to accurately track his target, he deliberately chose to walk, without using the wind.

In fact, flying at low altitudes doesn't make you much faster; it's mainly about looking cool.

Five minutes later.

Roger found another nest of turtle eggs under a boulder.

This litter had an even larger number of chicks, 38 in total.

This made Roger grin from ear to ear.

Three more minutes passed.

He found a third hideout.

There were only 9 turtle eggs this time.

Roger shook his head, practically blaming the mother turtle for not trying hard enough to lay those eggs.

Fortunately, the fourth and fifth homes greatly soothed his emotional trauma.

The two nests together have nearly 60 eggs.

Quickly stuff these turtle eggs into the empty compartments of the crucible.

Roger felt that the sun was shining brighter today.

that's all.

Roger emptied the entire Water Ghost Forest eggs in one go!

In the end, a total of 798 Johnny Turtle Egg were obtained.

Even with Sang Qi's Cauldron, he still made three trips back and forth! And during this process...

He had ventured deep into the Water Ghost Forest and reached the edge of the Land of Buried Bones.

There he saw a large footprint, as if it had been recently made.

The footprint was about three meters long, with three toes and very sharp, hooked nails that had carved a small hole in the ground.

He tried to use the Qi Divination Technique to investigate.

"Footprints of a predator: Level 30+ / Huge size / High danger"

If you use divination, you can most likely see the specific details of this kind of monster.

But Roger has no immediate plans to go to the Land of Buried Bones.

So I just quickly exited and that was it.

Just on the way back.

The huge footprints kept replaying in his mind.

This is probably the underlying awe and fear that humans feel when facing enormous creatures.

Roger focused his mind and quietly felt the flow of energy within his body.

Only then did he forget about the footprints.

The Water Ghost Forest is very quiet during the snowmelt.

Roger hadn't gone far when he ran into a group of water ghosts.

"No wonder it's called the Water Ghost Forest, there are really a lot of water ghosts here."

Roger instinctively pulled the Red Moon from the Qi Aperture in his left hand, but quickly put it back in.

"We don't need to use the Red Moon to kill the water ghost brother, right?"

He pulled out the Green Cicada with his backhand.

With a light touch of the toes on the snow, it flew straight across as if suspended by a steel wire.

Whoosh! The Qing Fu Sword strikes with precision, always managing to pierce the hearts and backs of the water ghosts' heads.

Although it was difficult to kill them in one blow, the water ghosts were quickly wiped out by the damage to their vital points.

With a soft "poof".

Kill the last water ghost.

Roger landed steadily on the snow, flicked his left hand, took out a clean piece of coarse linen cloth, and gently wiped the Qing Fu Sword.

Just then, an unexpected notification appeared on the screen.

"You have killed 1 water ghost, bringing your total number of water ghost kills to 1964. Your milestone - a new record for Water Ghost Hunter"

You have gained 1 XP point.

"Your liver's metabolic capacity has slightly improved."

"Your liver's metabolic capacity has increased to 700 points (it cannot be increased any further)."

"You have completed the third Sin Mark, gaining the feat: Immune to All Poisons."

"Ah, this..."

Roger himself didn't expect it.

It's hard to gather enough turtles to catch them.

The ghost was killed unintentionally, but the ghost fulfilled its purpose.

My third Sin Mark was actually given to me by my younger brother, the water ghost!...

"Immune to All Poisons (3rd Ring Feat): Your poison resistance is increased to 70 points, granting immunity to most common toxins and 40% of extraordinary toxins."

To be fair, these attributes are quite good.

Roger had some reservations about the fact that toxic resistance wasn't calculated as a percentage like toxic resistance.

But considering that this is a bonus that comes with the liver's metabolic capacity being maximized, it is actually quite impressive.

Roger took a look.

A liver metabolism capacity of 700 points means powerful detoxification ability and an extra energy boost.

The former is reflected in "Immune to All Poisons".

Energy is a semi-hidden attribute.

Roger could only see a cylinder.

It contains a bright yellow gas.

The decline of yellow gas signifies a loss of energy.

When the gas is almost gone, it means you're exhausted.

Compared to before.

Roger's cylinder was more than three times thicker! "Thinking about it carefully, the benefits that the water ghost brother gave were actually not bad."

"It's just that once you've seen the ocean, you can't be satisfied with a river... After being exposed to the Magic Explosion Frog, the Gray Dwarf, and the Johnny Turtle, my standards have become a bit too high."

"That's not right."

Roger couldn't help but criticize himself.

This can easily cause you to miss some seemingly unimpressive but actually very useful attributes.

In the future, I need to maintain a humble and low-key attitude and treat each attribute with caution.

After silently elevating the status of the water ghost brother slightly in his heart.

Roger searched through the mud for a while with a hint of disdain.

As always, there's nothing of value.

"When it comes to spoils of war, the younger brother is always the younger brother."

As he was thinking this, a dense purple light suddenly appeared in his field of vision Qi Divination Technique!

Roger quickly used his Qing Fu Sword to clear away the mud.

There.

He found a ring and an earring.

After washing with snow water.

Both revealed their true forms under the Qi Divination Technique.

"Notification: Three pieces of the Immortal Palace Set have been collected. Activate the set effect?"

"This works?"

Roger slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "From now on, Brother Water Ghost is a true brother who is on equal footing with us!"

"Anyone who dares to say my brother is poor and doesn't drop loot is messing with me!"

On the data panel.

"Hint: Set (3) effect activated."

All Damage Reduction 20%.

"You have obtained the ' Asgard Secret Treasure ' once a month."

"Open now?"
