Chapter 1548 - 1548 Blooming!
1548 Blooming!
Ruan Ziying looked at Luo Yu and Sun Zhaoyu, who were nodding silently. She took a deep breath again and forced herself to accept this setting.
“Alright then.”
Very good.
Working closely with the villain.
Ruan Ziying quickly adjusted her state of mind.
“Alright, you know that I’ve always had a close relationship with the Occult Investigation Committee. I’ve always been working on the mission line there. Considering the risks and the follow-up mission, if I continue to help you, you’ll have to pay more.”
“No problem.”
Fang Heng led Ruan Ziying deeper into the hall of the broken church and pointed at the shadowy area.
“I brought you here for this.”
Ruan Ziying looked in the direction that Fang Heng was pointing at and raised her eyebrows.
Red Hell Mandala!
A special plant that was born from absorbing nutrients from corrupted creatures!
At this moment, a small portion of the Hell Mandala flower had already bloomed.
Ruan Ziying couldn’t help but take a few steps forward, staring at the Hell Mandala flower.
“You know this thing?”
“Of course, the Red Hell Mandala absorbed the strength of corruption and decay. It blooms on the corpses of elite corrupted creatures. Under normal circumstances, it’s not difficult to form a flower bud. The most difficult thing is to make it bloom.”
“Very rare?”
“Of course! Very rare! The matured Hell Mandala is an S-level plant, and it is a very rare material. It is always in short supply.”
Hearing that it was S-level, Fang Heng was instantly delighted.
Alright!
In this way, other than the Phoenix Firs, he also obtained a second S-level plant.
Steady!
“How can I get it down? I’ve tried it before, but brute force doesn’t seem to work.”
Ruan Ziying observed the Hell Mandala flower’s condition and nodded, “Of course. The Hell Mandala flower is connected to the main body. It needs to absorb the nutrients of decaying life forms, so it can only be picked after it has fully bloomed.”
“What should I do?”
“Think of a way to make it grow and bloom quickly. Under normal circumstances, this process requires a large amount of decaying matter and contamination as nutrients. Or we can speed it up and use corrupted crystals to greatly increase its growth speed. In theory, as long as we provide it with sufficient corrupted crystals and let it absorb energy, it can complete its growth and bloom in a short period of time.”
So that was how it was!
Fang Heng’s eyes lit up.
He immediately thought of the two gray corrupted crystals that dropped after the elite corrupted creatures died.
They were all forcefully absorbed by the Hell Mandala.
As expected, professional matters had to be handed over to professionals.
Fang Heng asked Ruan Ziying, “How many corrupted crystals do you have?”
“Why would I have such a thing?” Ruan Ziying was speechless. Fang Heng’s tone was like asking how much a pound of cabbage was. She said, “Corrupted crystals usually only appear after killing elite-level corrupted creatures or elite-level Fallen Ones. They are very rare.”
This was troublesome.
He still had to think of a way to farm it.
Fang Heng frowned and said, “Alright. Then how many corrupted crystals do we need to make the Hell Mandala bloom completely?”
“Yes, let me see…”
Ruan Ziying carefully observed the growth of the Hell Mandala and nodded. She said, “It’s already partially mature. Judging from the situation, it will reach maturity soon. The corrupted lifeform connected to the Hell Mandala has been severely damaged. There’s no way to guarantee absorption. It will probably need three to five corrupted lifeforms to complete its growth.”
Fang Heng and Luo Xu exchanged glances.
Fortunately.
Only five.
Not much.
They could definitely find them in the slums!
It would be over with a swipe!
“Okay, I know. You stay here first. We’ll think of a way to get some corrupted crystals back.”
Ruan Ziying blinked her eyes and looked at Fang Heng, who was walking out of the broken church with Luo Xu. She suddenly had a strange feeling in her heart.
So he had the ability to leave this place a long time ago!
He had been staying here all this time just to get an S-level plant?
This lunatic!
On the other side, Fang Heng and Luo Xu arrived at the entrance of the church.
“How about it? We need to get at least five corrupted crystals. Is there a way?”
Luo Xu thought about it and nodded, “It’s very difficult. Corrupted crystals are usually only found on some mutated corrupted lifeforms. They often have the flower bud of the Hell Mandala flower on them, and the flower bud can release illusions to attract nearby corrupted creatures to approach, then absorb these corrupted creatures. It’s very troublesome to deal with them.”
“Let’s try it first. It’s not convenient for me to leave. You guys go outside and look for the Hell Mandala that has been produced after corruption. After you find it, tell me the coordinates.”
“Alright.”
The three of them discussed briefly and immediately split up.
…
After more than ten minutes, Fang Heng followed the coordinates given by Luo Xu and climbed out from the underground passage of a low house.
Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu were already waiting in the room.
“Fang Heng, we’ve checked. It might be because the octagonal seal’s extremely high pollution intensity has caused a large number of Fallen Ones to mutate in a short period of time. Many Hell Mandala flowers have appeared in the slums, but most of them are still in the unflowered state. Look, it’s over there.”
Fang Heng looked out the window.
Not far away, a few clusters of corrupted matter were entangled on the broken rocks.
The Hell Mandala flower on the corpse drooped as if it was malnourished.
Luo Xu reminded him, “Fang Heng, be careful. The Hell Mandala has a powerful hallucinogenic ability. The area of effect of the skill is very wide. It’s best to use an ultra-long-range attack to deal with them.”
“Yes.”
Fang Heng hummed softly and raised his head to look carefully at the sky outside the window.
It was still shrouded in a thick layer of clouds.
With the omniscient eye, Fang Heng could see through the fog, so he was not afraid of the Hell Mandala flower.
The troublesome part was the ‘Tongues of Jealousy’.
The pair of eyes in the sky had been patrolling above.
Once he left the house, he would be discovered, and the contamination in his sea of consciousness would increase rapidly.
Luo Xu and Sun Zhaoyu couldn’t help but look at Fang Heng.
Coincidentally, both of them were close combat and lacked long-range attacks. If they were not careful, they would be affected by the illusion. It was not impossible to deal with the Hell Mandala creature, but it would take a lot of time and the risk was high.
Fang Heng asked after some thought, “What about summoned creatures?”
“No, summoned creatures will also be affected by the illusion. In theory, we can summon creatures from behind at any time, but it’s still too difficult. Under the influence of the illusion, the summoned creatures will also receive instructions that are different.”
Luo Xu analyzed, “How do we explain it? For example, the left and right that summoned creatures see are different from the left and right that we see.”
Fang Heng nodded.
Unfortunately, the omniscient eye was obtained through transplantation, so the zombie clones could not directly inherit the effect and see through the illusion.
