Xiangnanshu's voice was very weak.
The speaking speed is also shockingly slow.
Roger listened carefully, and finally pieced together a complete narrative:
"I have several children."
Roger was confused:
"Then what?"
He immediately said cautiously:
"What does it have to do with me?"
…
"Sixth sense: Xiang Nanshu feels extremely tired. He may need to rest for a day or two before he can say the next sentence."
…
Roger was speechless.
However, with his intelligence, it is not difficult to guess what Xiangnan Tree wants to express.
"The child of a fragrant nan tree is naturally also a fragrant nan tree."
"Is this guy trying to get me to help his child solve the problem of being harassed?"
"Wait…what did he just call me?"
Roger suddenly realized.
This fragrant nan tree actually called out the name of its advanced profession.
In the Gem City, Qigong masters are not a common profession, otherwise ladies like Shar wouldn't be troubled by hip pain all year round.
He heard that there were some martial artists in the new city area under the floating island, but those people probably didn't master "Chi".
How did this fragrant nan tree know about it?
Connected to the two treasures in hand.
Roger suspected that this guy might have lived for more than just one or two thousand years!
Just think of this.
He used the Qi-gazing technique on the two objects in his hands!
…
"Master Qufeng's Water-Repellent Bead (treasure): Makes the wearer not afraid of water or ice"
“Description: When you dive into the water, hold the Water-Repellent Bead in your mouth, and a protective shield will instantly form outside your body that provides unlimited oxygen. When the protective shield is broken, the Water-Repellent Bead will become ineffective temporarily until a new protective shield is formed.
You can swallow the water-repellent beads, and after successfully digesting them, you will gain the ability to breathe underwater.
You can crush the water-repellent beads to create a temporary passage in any body of water."
…
The upgrade effect of the Qi-gazing technique is very obvious.
The most intuitive manifestation is.
The description of items has been made more detailed.
In front of the water beads.
What underwater breathing module? It’s just a little brother!
“The master of music style does have quite a collection.”
"I wonder if there are lightning-repelling beads or earth-repelling beads."
Roger placed the two treasures together, and the two beads complemented each other, looking very beautiful.
There just wasn't any change.
This made him a little disappointed.
The effect of the other treasure was much simpler and more crude.
…
"Qingfeng Order (treasure): Increases the wearer's upper limit of martial arts skills by 10"
“Description: This item is a token from the leader of the Qingquan Sect. The holder should lead the other disciples of the Qingquan Sect;
This item, together with the Jade Spring Token (treasure), can open the secret vault of the Qingquan Sect headquarters."
…
"Hint: You have obtained the Qingfeng Order"
"It is detected that you have opened 3 acupoints, which does not meet the requirements for establishing a sect for the time being."
…
Roger glanced over.
As a martial artist, the minimum requirement to establish a school of martial arts is to have all four orifices fully opened.
He himself had the Qingfeng Order.
He is qualified to recruit disciples on behalf of Qingquan Sect.
He had promised Ah Ba that he would pass on the Qingquan Sect's martial arts as much as possible.
It looks like that day isn't far away.
In the following week.
Roger uses the "Qiyou Liuxu" brand strong insecticide every night to solve the problems of the fragrant nan tree.
In subsequent contacts.
Xiangnanshu finally made his words clear.
As Roger guessed, it was begging Roger to rid his children of the Ether-Eating Dragon.
However, the children mentioned by Xiangnan Tree all grew up on other floating islands.
As the lowest member of the Yusong family.
Roger is not yet qualified to enter and exit other floating islands.
We can only wait and see for now.
…
During the day.
Roger still diligently provides door-to-door service to the sorceress Shar.
After stopping tossing and turning at night, the treatment effect is immediate.
This made Shar extremely satisfied.
Roger's hourly wage has also increased from 200 copper rings at the beginning to 1,000 copper rings per hour today.
Even on this floating island where prices are high, this income is considered generous.
And in this process.
Roger's understanding of the sorceress gradually deepened.
Shar is indeed the richest woman on Floating Island No. 4.
The villa where Roger met her turned out to be her secret private property.
Apart from Roger, only she and the aloof housekeeper knew.
Shar's true residence is in the center of the floating island.
It was a luxurious castle.
There are more than 100 maids of various kinds in the castle alone.
As for other tricks.
Roger didn't find out clearly either.
In short, he is very rich.
Get to the bottom of it.
Shar is the best alchemist in the Gem City.
The genuine kind.
"Mr. Wellington" probably doesn't even have the chance to carry her shoes in front of her.
In the blink of an eye.
The day arrived when Roger agreed to go to a social event with Shar.
…
It was a trade fair within the Yusong family hosted by Shar.
The location was in a small side hall in her castle.
It is said to be a side hall.
But it is several times more spacious than Alan's lord's mansion.
It still has the iconic yellow crystal chandelier and the overly luxurious splendor.
Roger stood in the corner, looking at the well-dressed men and women, and felt out of place.
"I should be killing monsters."
"Instead of looking at these monsters."
Since the limerick.
Roger found that he had awakened his talent as a poet, and he could rhyme any of his complaints.
Life on the floating island was completely different from what he had experienced before.
Although there is also murderous intent hidden here.
But it is closer to a truly civilized society.
In the past, even at Senluo Farm, he didn't feel there was much difference between living in a house and living in the wild.
Poor hygiene conditions.
Poor living conditions.
A living environment without any smell of fireworks.
These actually make him focus more on his own affairs.
But since moving to the floating island.
Roger felt that he was a little corrupted.
At least.
He is very satisfied with the bathroom and bedroom in his new home.
The toilet on the floating island actually has functions similar to a flush toilet.
This made him feel that magic did have its merits.
The castle of Shar opened his eyes even more.
But before he could savor what he saw and heard, a familiar and strong fragrance pierced his mouth and nose——
A sorceress in gorgeous attire appeared out of nowhere, holding a goblet in her hand.
She was wearing a conspicuous low-cut dress with her fiery red hair hanging down, which made her look even more conspicuous.
"Do you like it?"
Shar whispered softly in his ear:
"As long as you marry me, these will all be yours!"
Roger tried hard to maintain his image as a "proud young martial artist", but he looked embarrassed and annoyed, as if he didn't know how to deal with the situation.
The sorceress snorted lightly, and simply leaned most of her body on him, then pointed at the maids of all kinds in the hall and said:
"As long as you marry me, they will all be yours."
This time.
Roger couldn't hold it anymore and raised his hands in surrender.
Shar smiled triumphantly, took Roger's arm and started walking.
Her movements were restless.
It feels a bit like a declaration of ownership.
Roger coughed and changed the subject:
“The trade fair is very lively.”
"certainly."
Shar raised her eyebrows proudly:
“I hosted this.”
But after a while, she added:
"After all, the demonic tide is coming soon , and many people are preparing for it."
Roger snorted, "Demon Tide?"
"Oh, sorry, that's my fault."
Shar blushed slightly:
"I was so obsessed with getting you that I almost forgot to tell you this."
While talking.
The two of them walked out of the side hall as if no one was around and came to a beautiful back garden.
There were many flowers in the garden that Roger didn't recognize.
They are not herbs, but real potions.
A cactus-like potion is in bloom.
The lilac glow illuminated every corner of the back garden.
"First, take a look at the abundance of air magic on the floating island."
Shar took out something like a thermometer like a magic trick, but the scale was changed to magic abundance.
Roger took a look.
The number displayed above is 18.
"Normally, the magic abundance of the floating island is between 15 and 22."
"It will be lower under the floating island, about 12 to 16."
"But when the magic tide arrives, the abundance of magic power under the floating island will increase tenfold or even twentyfold!"
"The floating island will not be affected much, and will increase by five or six points at most."
Speaking of this.
Shar couldn't help but stop and looked back at Roger:
"Do you know what this means?"
Roger nodded solemnly.
"After every demonic tide, at least half of the people under the floating island will become monsters."
Shar's tone was extremely calm:
"The more cruel things are yet to come."
"These new monsters."
"They will be the best experimental subjects and research materials for the mages of the Truth Society."
"Many of the people who came tonight are mages. They are not preparing for the Demon Tide, but for the hunting operation after the Demon Tide."
"Of course, these days, there's nothing wrong with this kind of thing. After all, all monsters are derived from that damn ether distortion..."
Ether distortion?
This was the first time Roger heard this term.
…
"Sixth Sense: The hip pain of Sorceress Shar and other noblewomen may be related to 'Ether Distortion'."
…
In the back garden.
The two chatted a lot more.
Roger had a general understanding of the magic tide.
That is a phenomenon unique to the Jewel City and its surrounding areas, where the abundance of magic power has skyrocketed.
It usually happens every five or eight years.
After the demonic tide.
There are monsters everywhere under the floating island.
Under the control of the Truth Society and the six major families, a new order will soon be formed.
The residents of Sunrise Town change one after another.
But those people are always on the floating island.
This is why everyone is trying so hard to get on the floating island.
“Every time before the demonic tide, all kinds of tragedies would happen in Sunrise Town, the Old Town, and the New Town:
There are fathers who would rather give their daughters to the floating island members as slaves than watch them turn into monsters;
There are also adventurers who have worked together for many years. One of them gets the qualification to go to the floating island, but the other fails. Can you guess what will happen? Anyway, from what I have seen along the way, abandonment and betrayal account for most of them.
There were even people who disguised themselves as cows in order to sneak onto the floating island, but they didn't even know they were killed by someone in the end.
..."
Shar's tone was calm.
The back garden is very big.
But unknowingly.
They have reached the end.
"Having said so much, what do you want to say?"
Roger tried not to look at the sixth sense.
"I mean life is hard and short."
Shar came up boldly and whispered in Roger's ear:
"If you will be my husband."
"I'll make it sweet and long."
Roger was silent for a moment and chose to refuse:
"Feel sorry."
“That’s not my ambition.”
Shar's expression changed instantly, and she pushed Roger hard:
"roll!"
"I don't want to see you anymore!"
…
The next day.
In a private villa.
"Go and invite Mr. Hachi!"
"My hip pain is coming back."
Shar lay on the therapy bed with tears in her eyes.
After a while.
The middle-aged housekeeper appeared:
"It seems that Mr. Hachi has left the floating island."
The sorceress bit the bed sheet in agony.
Make an aggrieved "ow" sound.
…
On the red soil wasteland.
Roger is running wildly with his macho brothers!
The mountain wind whistled in his ears.
That feeling is so refreshing!
“This is my home!”
Roger stared into the distance with a determined look.
The Sixth Sense and the Ultimate Hunter are on full blast!
A giant ant's nest was found ahead!
Without further ado.
Just do it!
He must clear this red wasteland before the "demon tide" arrives!
…
Three months later.
Roger left the red earth wasteland in a dusty state.
With the hard work and dedication of nearly 30 million giant ants.
The seventh sin mark has finally been filled up!
His kidney metabolic capacity reached 700 points!
The degree of yellow urine...Pah, the effect of immunity to all poisons has been greatly improved.
Now he is immune to more than 80% of the extraordinary toxins!
on the data bar.
A whole new expertise has quietly emerged.
…
"You have completed the seventh sin mark and gained the feat: overflowing energy."
"Overflowing with Vitality (3rd-level feat): Your required sleep time is reduced to 2 hours per day.
You always have endless energy.
When your energy accumulates to the upper limit, an overflow effect will occur, and the excess energy will be converted into 'essence' and stored.
Each unit of essence can release 100 points of energy.
…
"Coupled with the turtle force that can replenish energy, can this thing be a perpetual motion machine?"
Looking at the new expertise.
Roger felt extremely satisfied.
This is his happiness!
He wished he could stay in the wilderness forever.
But the floating island still has to go back.
After all, Xiangnan Tree and his descendants are still waiting for his salvation.
…
Two days later.
In a private villa.
“Woo woo woo.”
The sorceress who was being treated made a strange sound like a cat snoring.
Roger simply turned off his sixth sense.
Anyway, the prompt will not be some colorless information.
While Roger was working hard.
He suddenly felt a violent vibration under his feet!
This was followed by a strong feeling of weightlessness.
If it weren't for his amazing balance.
I almost put my hand where I shouldn't.
Come back to your senses.
Shar was looking at him with resentment on her face.
Roger looked out the window thoughtfully:
"What's wrong?"
Shar stood up, dressed silently, and said calmly:
"Demon Tide."
"I came early."
…
