Essence Gulp

Thor was indeed trying to find a way to get here.

It's just that there was still some distance between the meteor crater and Old Bridge Town; otherwise, he wouldn't have had to go to the pet store to buy a horse.

Fortunately, he found some helpers: Jane Foster and Dr. Erik Selvig from the original story. After successfully convincing them of his identity as Thor, the group began planning how to retrieve Thor's Hammer.

While they were busy making plans, Fang Mo took this time to research the experimental materialization of MC items.

As mentioned before, before this transmigration, Fang Mo had specifically stuffed Steve's backpack and alchemy bag full of items. This included, but was not limited to, golden apples, enchanting tables, redstone, potions, weapons, the Ender Hand, the Giant's Hammer, fishing rods, milk, lava, buckets of water, shulker shells, Ender Pearls, and even Essence Berries from Tinkers' Construct.

In short, even the Alchemical Bag was almost completely full.

There was no other way, as Fang Mo had too many things he wanted to test.

Take the Ender Hand as an example.

After materialization, this thing directly transformed from a physical object into a special telekinetic field, allowing Fang Mo to easily lift objects weighing tens of tons.

In fact, the Ender Hand had now become Fang Mo's primary means of offense.

After all, once this thing was materialized, it lost the concept of 'durability' and could be used as he pleased. That alone made it invincible, right?

But even so.

The Ender Field still had its drawbacks.

After using it for a period of time, Fang Mo discovered that the Ender Field actually had two rather serious flaws.

One of them was that its grasping ability could not be used on living entities.

Take the Abomination as an example. Fang Mo could only use the Ender Field to grab surrounding cars, buildings, or rocks to attack the Abomination; he couldn't directly grab the Abomination's body with the Ender Field and smash it violently into the ground.

Besides that, another flaw was that the Ender Field couldn't get stronger through constant practice like telekinesis or magic.

The limit for the Ender Field's grasping mass was only tens of tons, a limit Fang Mo couldn't break through no matter how much he trained.

This was because its essence wasn't an ability, but a tool.

But since it was a tool.

It must have another way to be strengthened.

An excavator could dig a trench of ten meters per hour at most, but what about ten excavators digging simultaneously? What would happen if a hundred excavators dug at the same time?

With a thought from Fang Mo, Steve immediately took out the Ender Hand from his backpack and handed it to him.

The moment Fang Mo's fingertips touched the Ender Hand, the rules between the MC world and the real world began to collide violently. Materialization took effect immediately. With a flash of white light, a faint purple halo appeared on Fang Mo's hand.

At the same time, Fang Mo's hand also lit up with a faint purple glow.

The just-materialized Ender Field seemed to be attracted by something and slowly merged with the Ender Field on Fang Mo's body.

After the fusion, Fang Mo could clearly feel that the strength of his Ender Field had doubled.

"So it really is like this..."

Feeling the current strength of the Ender Field, Fang Mo couldn't help but show a delighted expression.

It seemed he had guessed correctly.

Since the Ender Field was a force field, its strength must be able to be increased through fusion.

This was like some starship fleets in the universe; one ship's shield capacity was limited, but if countless ships gathered together to form a massive shield, its defensive capabilities would become unparalleled.

With this thought, Fang Mo immediately controlled Steve to take out four more Ender Hands.

After grasping the pattern, he quickly transformed these Ender Hands into his own Ender Field, meaning he now possessed the strength to lift hundreds of tons.

Of course, this was also due to the low spawn rate of the Mutant Ender Man King in the MC world.

Otherwise, Fang Mo would have definitely brought hundreds of Ender Hands this time, and then he would have performed a parting of the seas for Nick Fury. Even Thanos would have been scared to death by a heart attack.

After resolving the issue with the Ender Field, Fang Mo shifted his attention to the next item.

It was an item from the Tinkers' Construct mod, something called Essence Berry.

The effect of this item had already been explained before: Essence Berry bushes would periodically grow Essence Berries, and players could right-click to eat them and gain experience.

How should I put this...

Any player who had played MC knew that Steve's experience points didn't have much use.

It wasn't like in DNF or other online games where characters leveled up by gaining experience, and then learned skills and increased their attack power after leveling up.

In MC, experience had almost no other use besides enchanting.

But that was the MC world, after all.

The rules were set there.

What truly made Fang Mo curious wasn't the experience within MC.

It was the experience after materialization.

If Fang Mo conducted the 'materialization' experiment with the Essence Berries and then ate them himself, what would happen?

Would it be completely useless?

Or would he also 'level up'?

Fang Mo's heart fluttered at the thought.

With a slight shift in his thoughts, Steve directly handed him an Essence Berry.

Fang Mo reached out and caught it. A flash of white light later, a small cluster of fruits, as clear and lustrous as gems, appeared in his hand.

He observed the item for a moment, noting that the fruit resembled miniature grapes. The stem was covered in round, tender green fruits that emitted a soft, colorful halo, making them quite striking.

Fang Mo swallowed, then popped the entire cluster of Essence Berries into his mouth.

However, it was nothing like the sweet, delicious taste he had imagined.

An incredibly vile, sulfurous, almost rotten-fart-like flavor flooded his senses.

"Blech!"

Fang Mo instinctively spat everything out. "Damn it, what kind of devil fruit taste is this...?"

Despite his best efforts to spit it all out, some of the pale green liquid seemed to have been swallowed by Fang Mo. It made him feel incredibly nauseous, as if he had swallowed half a pound of sulfur. His entire respiratory tract felt blocked by the gas, and even breathing became torture.

Just as Fang Mo was about to quickly drink some milk to alleviate the feeling, a warm, comfortable sensation suddenly surged through his body.

Feeling this sudden, peculiar sensation, Fang Mo couldn't help but freeze.
