Chapter 488 - A Mage’s First Priority is to Protect Logistics (2/2)

They were delighted. “Wonderful, that’s a good method.”

Schuck spotted the shortcoming. “Each of our group consists of two people who can look out for each other, so would it be dangerous for you to be in a group by yourself?”

“I can fly.” Roland smiled. “Normally, I’m much safer than you guys.”

Everyone felt so too. Though Schuck also had a pair of light wings, he couldn’t fly very high, just hovering two or three meters off the ground.

In comparison, Roland’s flying speed was outrageous.

“Then we’ll depart right now?” Schuck picked up a blue magic spider and placed it on his shoulder.

Roland waved his hand. “There’s no rush, I’ll make some equipment for you guys.”

With that said, Roland snapped his fingers several times, and the dirt on the ground quickly melted into black mud, which then caked into rock. In a short time, four round stone hammers, two long rock pikes, and a rock s.h.i.+eld were built.

“It doesn’t have a great touch, but it’s better than being empty-handed.”

Schuck, Li Lin, Betta, and Raffel picked up round stone hammers, and Raffel also picked up a rock s.h.i.+eld.

The two agility types, Husseret and Brazil, picked up the long rock pikes.

Schuck tapped the round stone hammer in his hand and smiled. “It’s pretty hard. It’s good to have a powerful Mage around, even equipment can be made.”

The other F6 members all nodded in agreement.

At this moment Roland used his magic power to lift the soil on the ground upward, eventually turning it into a tall black rock pillar at least thirty meters tall. “Stop flattering me, let’s all go out and explore. This rock pillar is the marker; we will gather here later.” Roland thought about it and said, “During the exploration, if you find anything edible, try to put it in your Backpack and bring it back.”

“Got it.”

The three teams left in three different directions.

Roland wasn’t in a hurry to explore, as he tested his oil-making spell first.

It works!

He quickly used Mud to Rock to create a few irregularly-shaped rock bowls to store the insect oil.

When surviving in the wild, there were many wild plants to eat, but not many people wanted to eat them-why?

It was too hard to swallow, but it would taste so much better if there was oil to use to fry it.

The insect oil was extremely fragrant and came with a flavoring effect and a slightly salty taste that could definitely turn something unpalatable into something delicious.

Next up is the water-making spell!

It also works.

Smiling, Roland’s eyes narrowed when he looked at the pool of clear water in his hand. With oil and water, F6 would start with more advantages than the others.

They could even use this water to make traps to capture other players in places where water was scarce.

While he was at it, Roland summoned more oil and water, made two more rock vats to hold them, and only stopped when his magic power was halfway depleted.

In this way, he had saved ten kilograms of insect oil and about twenty kilograms of water.

He placed it all in his Backpack.

While the poisonous circle was still large, when there were few battles, it would be better to store some supplies first, or else, when they arrived at the middle or late stage, when the poisonous circle would shrink and hundreds of thousands of people would crowd together to fight to the death… Not to mention finding food, at that time, there might not even be time to eat; it would be more probable that people would grab a handful of random things to eat during battle.

And preparing food and drink in advance might be the key factor in surviving to the end. Roland rested in place for a while afterward and judging from the images coming from the three magic spiders, none of the three groups had encountered any enemies, though Betta seemed to have found plenty of food.

A whole lot of edible wild plants, a dozen large white and tender worms, and two long, large worms.

Yes… this kid is so good at finding food. What has he been through in his previous gaming experience?

Roland sat on the gra.s.s and rested for a while, and seeing that the magic was back to three-quarters, he used Human Cannonball and launched himself skyward.

With the wind whistling in his ears, Roland flew about five hundred meters above the ground and stopped climbing further up.

With no magic regeneration equipment, no Mind-Calming Necklace, and no special epic t.i.tle buffs, Roland’s magic power cap was no different from that of ordinary players of the same level.

Originally, he could use Human Cannonball casually, but with three or four uses, he now consumed a quarter of his total magic power.

Giving himself Slow Landing, Roland looked down at the earth from above.

Endless greenery stretched out beneath his feet, spreading into the distance-everywhere was woods and bushes. From the air, he could only see rough terrain, the ground rising and falling. He couldn’t see the situation below.

This was why ground reconnaissance was the most important thing in this instance. The camera system was also disabled at this time, so Roland could only try to keep in mind the terrain as far as he could see.

He looked around in a circle, then suddenly saw a strange place to the southeast, a patch of earthy spots in the endless green as if there were buildings there.

Huh?

Roland landed on the ground first and threw down a spatial mark, then activated Human Cannonball and flew toward the yellow spot he had just seen.
