Volume 3: Tide of Gray Mist Chapter 18 I’m such a genius!
High in the sky above Blue Star, Fang You entered the dark mode and walked in the air.
There were wisps of faint light in his pupils, and his evil tracking skill, which had reached its peak, was unleashed, his gaze looking into the distance.
The darkness covered the sky of Blue Star, and the foul breath surged like a tide.
On the other side of the sky, one can vaguely see an endless, indescribable world slowly approaching.
In front of the strange world, the huge blue star is as small as a drop of water in the ocean.
This is an irresistible trend.
"The erosion rate is accelerating again."
"According to this trend, it won't be long before we enter the third stage - the Gray Fog Tide. Mystery will descend upon Blue Planet in an all-out manner, and the entire environment of Blue Planet will begin to change. Simply put, the entire world will become a polluted area."
According to Yi Yue Luxi and his previous estimate , it would be one or two years before Blue Star would enter the third stage of being eroded by the strange world.
But after the battle with the incarnation of the Bloody Emperor, the process of erosion suddenly accelerated.
"Is it that war that made Blue Star's world barrier more fragile?"
"Or maybe it's the Bloody Emperor who's behind the scenes, pushing the erosion process forward."
Fang You felt it was both.
He came to Europa and looked at the broken land, where there were still many people "scavenging". Above this area, a huge hole could be vaguely seen, and gray clouds were constantly seeping out of the hole. From time to time, a few evil spirits would emerge from the fragmented area below.
On the detection map, this area is marked as "high-level pollution area" and is the area on the blue planet that has suffered the most severe erosion.
"At this rate, Blue Planet will be hit by the gray fog tide in a month or two at most. By then, the number of evil spirits infiltrating Blue Planet may be several times or even dozens of times more than it is now, and there will no longer be only a few catastrophic evil spirits."
"The entire Blue Planet will truly enter doomsday, and all order will cease to exist."
Yi Yue Luxi once described it.
In the second stage, when the minions of the evil god began to appear and formed evil cults, most of the world had gradually lost order.
When the third stage of the gray fog tide surges out, the human survivors can only survive under the leadership of a few awakened ones. Perhaps the church with the protection of the evil god can live a more comfortable life.
Usually at this stage, the eroded world has become a place of chaos and chaos, with humans suffering heavy casualties. This is the end of the world.
And when it comes to the fourth stage, the "devouring stage", when one area after another is devoured, that will be the time of doomsday.
"The Gray Fog Tide stage came much faster than expected, but I am already preparing . This is a huge challenge, but it is not unstoppable."
He planned to build base cities and safe zones.
The core is the Beacon of Dawn.
At the same time, the Dawn Lighthouses will build a Great Wall of Blue Star to resist the erosion of the Ghost Realm! But there is a prerequisite, the Dawn Lighthouse must be built in the right place, this location... he can't know it now, he must wait for the gray fog tide to appear and judge according to the veins of the gray fog.
And the materials for the Dawn Lighthouse are being searched for continuously.
Fang You pondered, opened the game panel, and cast his gaze towards An Jianyou who was in the strange world.
…
Ghost world, Blackrock Tower.
An Jianyou came here alone, wearing a ring that could hold strange objects.
"You guys are finally here... Why are you the only one here?"
"The instructor was busy, so he asked me to come here. I brought a lot of delicious food from our Blue Star~"
An Jianyou shook the ring.
It seems that this is another strange device that can store objects. The world of Blue Star is really rich.
Yi Yue Luxi was shocked.
Being rich and being powerful are roughly equivalent. The richer Blue Star is, the happier she is. She is also counting on making a fortune from Blue Star.
Well, although, so far it has been free rides.
But she has a plan, to make money today!
"Some time ago... about six or seven days ago, did anything happen on your Blue Star?"
"There's a cult ritual... a ceremony."
An Jianyou blurted out and slammed on the brakes halfway through his words.
But with these few words, Yi Yue Luxi understood instantly.
Perhaps the minions of the evil god have arranged a ritual on Blue Star, summoning some mysterious being to cast its gaze.
It seems that the Blue Star people have stopped the ceremony, but it is very dangerous.
Do you know that if that terrible mythical being exerts a little more force, your blue planet might be gone?
"That was most likely the gaze of a mythical being. I don't know whether to say you are lucky or unlucky."
“We were shocked, too.”
An Jianyou put on his best expressionless face.
What I thought in my heart was that it was probably misfortune, the terrifying enemy that descended on Blue Star. However, it turned out to be a mythical existence? Even a mythical existence could not do anything to Blue Star. Sure enough, the mentor was at least a great myth!
The instructor is awesome!
I heard that in mythology, there are gods as powerful as prison, but I don’t see any of that in my mentor’s case... Is it because my mentor is too approachable?
It must be like this!
Retracting his thoughts, An Jianyou spoke, "This time we want to ask more about the situation in the Ghost Realm, as well as information about your Oasis forces. Can we buy this information?"
"It's okay."
The general information about the Oasis forces told Blue Star that this was nothing, as it was not just their Blackstone Alliance that had them. With the strength of several strong men on Blue Star, it was only a matter of time before they encountered other Oasis forces.
It’s better to do some favors.
She is very optimistic about Blue Star. Judging from the performance and potential of these people on Blue Star, it is very likely that they will become a major oasis force in the future.
If they can't find the unowned oasis, well... that's even better. We can invite them to join the Blackstone Alliance and make them our own.
The plan worked!
Well, but favors have to be sold and money has to be earned .
"Food in one hand, intelligence in the other."
“Yeah~!”
An Jianyou immediately turned into a gourmet and introduced each of the delicious foods he took out from the Ring of Storage.
Cantonese cuisine, Sichuan cuisine, and Shandong cuisine.
Flying in the sky, crawling on the ground, and swimming in the water.
Compared with the rush of the last time, the food presented this time was more dazzling. As An Jianyou introduced the food, she felt a little hungry herself.
But he still pricked up his ears and listened carefully to the information from Miss Yi Yue Luxi.
Yi Yue Luxi cleared away all the food on the table.
In fact, she was a little greedy, but she restrained herself. She didn't want to be like last time and eat up all the delicious food in an unladylike manner.
These delicacies are of great use to her. They are part of her plan to make money as the tower master Yi Yue Luxi.
Besides, this body of hers is just an incarnation, and the delicious taste she tastes can be shared, but it still feels like a waste.
“Ahem!”
"It is said that the Ghost Realm has shallow, deep, and deeper layers. I can't really say how big the Ghost Realm is, but as far as the area where my Blackstone Alliance is located, there are probably dozens or even hundreds of oases around it."
The surroundings she mentioned refer to the exploration range of Blackrock Oasis.
A very vast area.
"But most of these oases are small oases, which can only survive in the strange world. I didn't remember these small oases, so I will talk about the large oases."
"We, the Blackstone Alliance, are the Great Oasis, and we are one of the strongest in the Great Oasis."
She puffed out her chest with pride, "In addition, there are the City of Falling Stars, the Holy Snake Society, the Burning Oasis, the City of Sword Flowers, the Wave City-State, etc."
"These large oases are all forces that have the ability to explore the strange world and carry out activities in dangerous areas. Therefore, when you explore the shallow strange world, you may encounter people from these large oases, but..."
She raised her lips slightly, "These oases may not be as friendly as our Blackstone Alliance~"
That’s right! The best trading partner is the Blackstone Alliance.
Uh-huh~!
…
In the strange world, deep inside, there is a place with sparse gray fog.
A silver-haired woman opened her eyes, and a light flashed in her eyes.
If An Jianyou were here, he would find that this woman looks not exactly like Yi Yue Luxi, but they look exactly the same.
That’s right, she is Yi Yue Luxi herself.
The master of the seventh tallest tower of the Blackstone Alliance.
She was wearing a silver cloak and walked slowly to the window sill of the high tower with her straight and slender legs. From here, she could overlook most of the Black Stone Oasis.
The buildings in the oasis are mainly black and gray. Around the seventh tallest tower where she is, there is still some distance between the buildings, but farther away, the towering black buildings seem to be fitted together.
Even though the building is neither rough nor simple, it still gives people a sense of oppression.
The pedestrians under the buildings are like worker ants, moving through the narrow streets and alleys.
Compared with ordinary people, the living environment of the oasis nobles is much better. As a tower master at the top of the nobility, Yi Yue Luxi owns a considerable area of land around her tower.
There are green plants and a small pond.
As usual, Yi Yue Luxi came to her own plantation, where some mysterious crops were grown. The most important one was called breadfruit, which was also the most important food source for their Black Stone Oasis - one of the staple foods of the nobles.
The breadfruit grown from a second-level breadfruit tree is rich in nutrients. A strong person like her only needs to eat five or six in a meal to fill her stomach.
If it is a third-order breadfruit, it would be more than enough.
It is not only a staple food, but also an important strategic resource.
But the taste of breadfruit is just average, and it can’t be made into flowers. In comparison...
Yi Yue Luxi reminisces.
“Although the food on Blue Star is not filling, it is really delicious! Many of them are completely new to us!”
She called her attendants.
"Have the merchants from Falling Star City arrived?"
"Here we are, Master Tower Master." The attendant Xiao Xi said, and then after a pause, he continued, "Can these foods really be exchanged for resources?"
After all, it’s not much, and it can’t improve your strength.
Yi Yue Luxi asked, "Do you think it tastes good?"
Follower Xiaoxi licked her lips subconsciously, "Delicious."
"That's it."
Yi Yue Luxi said, "I like it very much, and so do other tower masters. Why can't people from other oases like it too?"
"Yes, the environment in the Ghost Realm is dangerous. We have always focused on survival and improving our strength, but 99% of our money is spent on improving our strength. Shouldn't we use the 1% to enjoy ourselves?"
"What's more, not all the strong men in Oasis are ambitious. Some of them are just looking for pleasure. This is our business opportunity."
Even a small share of the total trade of an entire oasis is a huge amount for her, and her goal is to have multiple large oases.
What's more, what did she pay for these Blue Star delicacies?
She just gave some information.
No capital, huge profits!
I’m such a genius, hahahaha——!
