81 Chapter 81 - Poison Dart Frogs (1/2)
The drug furnace has the dimension of a washbasin with a height of about 40 cm. With such a size, Cheng Yang has no way of stuffing it into his backpack.
Right in the middle of Cheng Yang's awkward moment, Zhao Chuan came over. He looked at the drug furnace in Cheng Yang's hands, and couldn't help but asked: ”Lord, what is that? How come it look like an old drug furnace? ”
Cheng Yang said: ”It's not like, but it is.”
”Aren't potions sold in the alchemy room? Also does the herbs need a drug furnace in order to be refine into potions? ”Zhao Chuan with a face full of doubts asked.
Cheng Yang said: ”Naturally, herbs can be refined using the production skill, but a drug furnace can also be used to make potions. In addition, only low-end finished products will come out from using the production skill. In the future, higher grade herbs will appear. That is the truly good stuff. Therefore, the emergence of this drug furnace is also a normal occurrence. ... Alright, this thing is too big, so it isn't convenient for me to carry. Go find a few people to take turns carrying it. This is a rare item, so you better not hand it back to me broken. ”
”All right! ”Zhao Chuan took one look at the huge item and with a forced smile on his face, he agreed.
Afterwards, Zhao Chuan brought over three people from his team and had them take turns carrying the drug furnace forward. Fortunately, although the furnace is big but it's weight is also very general, making it easy for a person to carry alone.
After passing through the channel, everyone discovered that the road was getting more and more difficult to travel.
According to what he remembered, this place should also be a wide road leading out of the city. However, let alone a flat road, they can't even find the trail. The original spacious asphalt road can be seen replaced with a mixture of bitumen and gravel in the grass on the ground, as well as a few lofty trees rooted everywhere.
”Lord, let's say these trees were to continue to grow and then be condensed in one once they are near one another. If such a situation were to happen, wouldn't the Earth be entirely covered in wood? ”A strange thought suddenly sprang up from within Zhao Chuan's head.
Cheng Yang knows what the conditions are like in the future. He said: ”No, these trees will stop growing once they reach a certain size. Of course, there may be some exceptions. However, regarding the specific details, I am not very clear. ”
Zhao Chuan nodded, suddenly feeling relieved a lot. If that moment were to really come, and the Earth was totally covered with trees, then the world shouldn't be call Earth, but instead cricket ball.
The trees in the surroundings are very tall, but luckily the interval they appeared isn't very concentrated. However, between these trees are densely packed with a variety of thorns. Although they were unable to cause harm to the team, but plenty of tears can done to their clothing.
Immediately, four warriors stepped forward, raising the sword in their hands toward the thorns and began chopping away. For a moment, branches and leaves started swirling in the air, and a new path was forcibly created.
However, in this world aren't just plants. More than 10 days has passed since the apocalypse and in this area with no human activities, it made the concentration of monsters here unusually high. Cheng Yang and others have long put on their guard, so along the way they were very cautious.
The team has moved forward 50 meters when sounds of frog's calls could be heard coming from the front, giving out a farm-like atmosphere in the air.
”Lord, there are frogs in this world? What do they eat? Are there pests for them to eat? ”Liu Hao can't help but throw out multiple irrelevant questions.
Cheng Yang shook his head and said: ”Haozi, you only need to remember that the world no longer have normal animal. All the originally animals have either turns into enchanted beast, or alienation beast already. The strong enchanted beasts were sent away by God to other far distant places, while the weak ones got left around the vicinity of the main city. The frog's noises you are hearing right now, that is also a kind of enchanted beast.”
Liu Hao has a great comprehension for games, so he immediately seize the details of Cheng Yang's words and at once asked: ”Lord, you just mention alienation beast. What is that? ”
Cheng Yang said: ”You can think of it as a kind of incomplete transformation. Alienation beast can evolve like enchanted beast, but they aren't entirely constrained by the evolution rule made by the gods. In other words, even if we are to now encounter a third-order alienation beast, that's considered normal. However, under normal circumstances, alienation beasts tends to appear far away from the main city, and are very rare. So for the time being we don't need to worry ourselves over these monsters that don't comply with the rules.”
”F**k, really? ”Liu Hao's face suddenly changed:” Won't that mean there's a lot of alienation beasts at the bottom of the ocean?”
”This …” The tranquil expression on Cheng Yang soon faded away. In his previous life, it was also speculated that the ocean has a lot of alienation beasts. However, due to humanity lack of strength, they failed to set foot into the ocean. Let alone the ocean, even some large lakes would cause human endless fear, because inside contained large groups of enchanted beast group that reached a unimaginable size.
Cheng Yang paused and said: ”For the matter concerning the ocean, we'll deal with it at another time. We are located inland and temporarily will face no threat from the ocean. And, as long as we use the fastest means to enhance our strength, I believe that even if the ocean has a large amount of alienation beasts, we are also capable of supporting through it. Since the gods spend so much effort to remodel this world for human evolution, there's no way they would be that ruthless to humans.”
Although Cheng Yang said that, his heart wasn't so sure.
