Camp Transformation X High-Nutrient Gas
Snake Nest Camp.
This exploration took Kevin and his team almost two weeks.
The main reason was that they went deep into the grasslands, where they spent a considerable amount of time.
Plus, there's such a long distance.
"I think we really should find some kind of creature we can transport. Relying solely on our own two legs will become increasingly cumbersome as we explore farther and farther."
The time spent traveling back and forth alone is unbearable.
In the later stages, the time spent traveling back and forth might become the majority.
Men Qi, who had just returned to camp, offered a fairly reasonable suggestion.
"It's very troublesome."
"I am conducting full-body examinations on everyone," said Qiduo, adjusting her glasses.
"First, we need to find a suitable creature, one that can be domesticated. Only after these two conditions are met can we begin to consider other options."
Moreover, taming is not something that can be done simply.
To accomplish this quickly, one needs the relevant Nen ability.
This is the fastest and most suitable method for the Dark Continent. After all, they don't have that much time, nor do they have a safe place.
And it has to be perfectly suitable.
After all, if they really wanted to tame mounts, they couldn't rely entirely on Nen ability to control them.
"However, it can be listed as one of our next goals. Relying solely on our own two legs is indeed very troublesome, and if we encounter any danger, our condition may not be very good while traveling."
Kevin was very much in favor of the suggestion.
This is, after all, the Dark Continent, and to avoid unexpected dangers, they cannot travel too fast.
This would increase the consumption of Nen Aura, making it impossible to maintain a good state.
In this situation, although they can travel faster than ordinary people, they won't be much faster.
Even if you've walked the same route several times, you still need to remain vigilant.
"Alright, the check-up is complete. You are all in very good health."
After a thorough examination, Qiduo re-recorded and organized everyone's physical data and then spoke.
After leaving the Infirmary.
Kevin then discovered that many people were not in the camp.
Upon further inquiry, it was discovered that the group was scattered in other areas nearby.
Everyone's very busy.
After two weeks away, the entire camp seemed to have undergone quite a few changes.
"What is that?"
Kevin looked up at the Tree Top, where there seemed to be a man-made room.
Beidolaisi, who was fiddling with something not far away, looked up when he heard this.
The style of that thing was clearly his.
"That's Sunlight Tree Top House."
What is that?
What strange thing?
"It's a cultivation room, used for planting materials. I made it according to Koto's requirements. Because of the needs of the plants, she had me install it on the top of the tree."
"Bohong Flower?"
Beidolaisi nodded.
It's for growing that kind of thing.
Although they planted a certain amount of crops on every small hill in the Giant Beast Kingdom, the Giant Beast Kingdom was, after all, the territory of the Beasts.
Apart from a few scattered areas, the other small mounds were completely outside their control.
To obtain a certain amount of Bohong Flower, one can only pray that those giant beasts don't have a brain fart and eat the Bohong Flower before it's ripe.
This behavior is too passive.
So Koto came up with a way to carry out hydroponic cultivation and installed such Glass Cultivation Room at the Tree Top.
Kevin shielded his eyes from the sunlight, looking carefully. Although the cultivation room above looked simple, it seemed to have everything one should have.
Does it work?
At this moment, Ce stepped forward, heard these words, and spoke directly.
"It's effective, but it requires a lot of Plant Nutrition, and Miss Koto is very capable in this regard."
After all, Plant Hunter is Star Rank, so this aspect is naturally not a concern.
Where is Rukira?
Ce asked, holding a Notebook.
"I am coming."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Rukira flew down from the sky.
"This is troublesome. I need to record your operation log in detail for data reference."
With that, Ce and Rukira returned to the central Data Core.
This is essential for everyone on every outward exploration.
Whether exploring safe or dangerous areas, every exploration, once leaving the camp and returning, must be documented in this way.
Each record may seem insignificant at first glance, but little by little, enough data will accumulate and provide more information for future reference.
This is a very important part of their exploration of the Dark Continent.
This main task fell to Ce, so he rarely left the camp.
Just then, a commotion arose outside the camp.
Kevin heard the sound and rushed over.
Then I saw Kiss being carried back by Gon, and Biscuit being carried by Shalnark and Kurapika.
It seemed they had communicated beforehand through Ant Speech; as soon as they returned to the camp, Illumi arrived back from who-knows-where.
He went directly to Qi, examined him briefly, and then took out a thin vial of Serum from his waist and injected it into Qi's arm.
Qi, whose face had been somewhat purplish, returned to normal at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Biscuit, on the other hand, was simply unconscious. Although she looked disheveled, she only had some superficial injuries.
"What happened? You look so disheveled."
Kevin had remained silent the whole time until this moment when he finally asked.
Gon, after catching his breath, said, "We encountered a new creature while hunting, a very strange snake, thin and long, with a hammer-like structure on its tail."
"Kiy was splashed with venom, Biscuit was knocked unconscious by the snake's tail."
"So how did you escape back?"
"It's Kansai. He held off the enemy for a bit, so he should be safe now and on his way back."
Through the Ant Speech, everyone can quickly understand their own situation, so there will be no ineffective rescue efforts.
As expected.
No sooner had he finished speaking than Kansai returned, dressed in tattered clothes.
It doesn't seem like he suffered any serious injuries.
"That snake is truly cunning and treacherous!"
"It's insidious and cunning." Qiduo, who rushed over to give the group a quick check-up and treatment, casually corrected the other person's misuse of words.
"That snake was incredibly well-hidden. The four of us were hunting and none of us spotted it. Of course, it's also possible we weren't vigilant enough while hunting."
"It circled around and attacked us from behind, its tail striking Biscuit and spraying venom. In order to drag Biscuit away, Qi got a little bit of the venom on him."
After briefly describing the battle situation...
Kansai couldn't help but say, "Those potions are really effective; otherwise, I'm not sure I could have held on."
However, based on the description, everyone knew that the snake's strength lay in its ability to ambush; once the ambush failed, its combat ability immediately diminished.
As they were talking, Biscuit woke up, rubbing her back and letting out a cry of pain.
"It's a superficial injury; you can use your Nen ability to alleviate and treat it."
"Qiduo looked at Biscuit after she woke up and said..."
Biscuit had regained consciousness, nodded, and then noticed Kevin returning.
"You're back. It looks like you weren't hurt."
"Of course, but I saw you looking so disheveled when I got back."
Kevin chuckled as he spoke from the side.
Biscuit rolled her eyes and struggled to her feet. Just then, Qi woke up.
Everyone seemed quite adept at using various coping and treatment methods, clearly indicating that this wasn't the first time.
When hunting, Hunting team carry the most various medicines and protective measures.
Others will also provide logistical support.
Therefore, even after an injury, emergency treatment can be provided, and medications are available to ensure safety.
So even though they were injured more than once, they did not suffer any lasting effects.
"Wait a minute, where are my hunting spoils!"
Once she regained Kiy, Qi Ya's first thought was of her spoils of war.
"Don't worry, it's already been brought back."
Kurapika spoke, Shalnark, standing beside him, used its Bulge-Eye Fish to spit out the spoils and various materials it had just ingested.
"That's good. I really like that thing."
Kiy said, taking out a pair of cow horns from inside and proudly holding them on his head.
That was the first giant beast he hunted alone; although it was only six meters long, it was already quite formidable.
At this moment, Bianluoke, who had also arrived, used bubbles to wrap up various materials and then threw them out.
These bubbles, containing materials, flew into the warehouse.
This is their simplest form of protection.
The bubbles from Bianluoke have a variety of uses and can completely replace a refrigerator, or even far surpass its effects.
It was nearing dusk.
Everyone gradually returned.
They were clearly more curious about whether Kevin and his group, who had been away for so long, had gained anything.
Men Qi has finished recounting their experiences along the way.
Kevin then took out the wooden barrel.
Everyone gathered around out of curiosity.
This is a treasure described in the book, a metaphor for "hope."
By pushing the bucket, Bianluoke simply wrapped it with bubbles.
In any case, simple protection is necessary.
Kevin reached into the bubbles and opened the lid of the wooden bucket.
The instant it was opened.
A fragrant aroma of egg white wafted from the wooden barrel, quickly filling the entire interior of the bubble.
"Energy is bursting the bubbles; although it's a slow process, it's clear that bubbles cannot be used for preservation."
Bianluoke, who had a degree of sensitivity and control over the bubbles, immediately reminded him.
After thinking for a moment, Kevin took the wooden bucket out of the bubbles.
I just took it out.
The aroma of protein filled the entire tent.
In an instant, everyone's faces turned somewhat rosy.
What is this?
Biscuit's control over her body was exceptional among everyone, and she immediately noticed the effects of these protein scents on her body.
Men Qi's eyes were even a little glazed over. "It smells so good."
When Kevin tried to put the lid back on, he felt a resistance.
The only option is to stuff it back into the bubble.
This bubble won't burst, at least not for the time being.
The protein scent in the air was inhaled by everyone, and their condition improved slightly.
I feel full.
Buhaci muttered to himself beside him.
The others also had rosy complexions, some even glowing with an oily sheen.
"Is this thing so nutritious just from the aura it emits?" Qiduo asked, somewhat puzzled.
Although she had high expectations for what the analogy was, it still exceeded his imagination.
Are you full just from smelling it?
Moreover, she is Doctor Hunter and also has considerable expertise in nutrition.
She could feel a slight feeling of fullness in her body, which was not an illusion, but a reflex caused by a sudden over-nourishment of nutrients.
To be honest, even Kevin himself didn't expect it.
To avoid any accidents on the road, Kevin put it in his Pocket Flower and never took it out again.
I didn't expect that the aroma it emitted would be so strong after I took it out.
Why didn't you feel it when you were by the pond?
Thinking about it now, it's very likely that the aura it emitted was absorbed by the surrounding Wang Gen Grass.
After all, the nutrients and energy that permeate the air are also part of nutrition.
"Unbelievable, is this stuff really drinkable?"
Koto couldn't help but ask.
Just smelling it is enough to give you that feeling; imagine taking a sip!
Aren't you afraid that overnutrition could cause irreversible damage to your body?
The human body is like a cup that can hold water. If you put the lid on and force water into it that it can't hold, the cup will definitely break.
"So this thing is probably only for Kevin to use. It's too early for us to use it; it would be like committing suicide."
Biscuit said very seriously from the side.
This is no joke.
Most people nodded in agreement; if they reacted so strongly just from smelling it, they would have to imagine what it would be like to actually drink it.
"This is when I, the Gourmet Hunter, make my appearance."
Men Qi slapped the table and said with a laugh.
"I've already figured out how to make it."
That statement itself raises a bit of curiosity.
"Just wait and see."
Men Qi smiled slightly and kept everyone in suspense.
Kevin put the lid back on the barrel and then stuffed it into the Pocket Flower.
The Pocket Flower is a sealed space, and this airtightness allows the nutritious Milk to remain sealed, locking in its energy.
It seems that we can't take it out casually for the time being.
At this moment, the protein gas permeating the bubbles floating in front of everyone was already considered high in energy.
Bianluoke thought for a moment, then reached out and slapped.
The bubble instantly split into more than a dozen equal parts, each containing protein gas.
"That's fine. If you're interested, you can take one back and study it. Although it's just gas, it should still be considered part of that kind of nutritious Milk."
"If you're also interested in nutritious Milk, you can get some from me."
Kevin took one for himself too.
Then he leaned back in his chair, needing to think carefully about how to use those so-called nutritious Milk.
With such a high nutritional and energy content, consuming it won't be so easy.
Having acquired a treasure, but finding it difficult to use, is a happy kind of trouble.
