Life as a Landlord in Global Games

Chapter 11 The Road to Finding Cards (Part 1)

I thought it would be easy to dig a hole, but I didn't expect that the ground of the Sacred Nursery... could be so strong!

Jiang Ke spent a lot of effort to dig a small hole.

But she also roughly understood why the ground was so difficult to dig.

Under the green grass is a layer of emerald-like soil, which is crystal clear and translucent. Rather than being soil, it is more normal to say it is emerald nephrite.

No wonder such strange plants can grow here. It turns out that the soil is different.

She clicked her tongue in wonder, and then planted the seeds.

After the seeds were planted, she backfilled the dug soil pit, which was no more than the size of a palm. Then she went to fetch a bucket of water and watered the plants one by one.

There are still about ten leaves hanging on the golden branches and jade leaves, but there are also some small buds growing.

The Tree of Spiritual Wisdom still looks lifeless, but it's getting a little better.

And the countdown to maturity on the last plant has finally ended -——

This is a holy white tree that is half a head taller than her. The trunk and branches have graceful natural growth lines. Its leaves are very lush and are a red-gold color that seems to be burning.

From a distance, it looks like a burning holy torch.

And between its branches and leaves, there are teardrop-shaped fruits that are only the size of cherries.

Each of these fruits is crystal clear, as if they are made of colorless crystals. But if you look closely, you can see the different haloes inside the fruits.

[Holy Fire Crystal Tree·Early Access Version]

[A special tree species that once grew in a certain holy segmented area. It absorbed the power of fire and light, ultimately creating its unique effect]

【Eating its fruit, the eater will randomly obtain the following effects:

①: Feel the heat of the holy fire.

②: Feel the blessing of light.

③: Stamina and mana will not be consumed within one minute.

④: Restore mana while reducing physical strength to the minimum, and vice versa.

⑤: Heal all injuries not higher than level 50, and the excess healing amount will form a holy fire shield.

⑥:Recover to the best condition within thirty seconds after the health value returns to zero]

[Note: Due to the lack of irrigation from Lingying Spring, the possibility of triggering effect No. 6 will be extremely reduced]

[PS: In fact, it is the castrated version of a certain mythical tree species. If it were its true form, it would be easy to revive the dead by eating one. I just don’t know if it can cure hair loss? - A bald researcher]

Although he had long known that the things in this sacred nursery were very strange, when he saw the words "resurrection from the dead", Jiang Ke's heart still beat faster than expected.

And she had a very strange feeling... She just got an item that increased luck and saw this effect.

It was as if there was some will deliberately arranging her.

She raised her head and looked around.

The space in this nursery is not large, just a little bigger than her room.

There was a gray and chaotic mist in the sky, but within the gray mist there was a holy light projected from somewhere.

"..."

She looked at it in silence for a while, then suddenly picked a fruit and ate it directly.

This fruit looks like a diamond but tastes very juicy.

And it also has a sweet and spicy taste. If I have to say it, it’s probably the kind of fruity sweet pepper, right?

Then...she felt what the burning heat of the holy fire meant.

She felt like a fire was igniting from her stomach, and the flames spread throughout her body along her meridians, and she was instantly covered in sweat.

But the heat was not uncomfortable. Instead, as she sweated, some gray substances were discharged from her sweat.

There is a refreshing feeling.

This state lasted for about three minutes, and then receded like a tide.

She stretched her arms and kicked her legs, feeling that her legs and feet seemed much lighter. Her breathing also became much easier.

"Cleaning the meridians and severing the marrow... But if this thing suddenly appears during battle, it seems a bit deceptive."

Jiang Ke licked his lips and gave up the intention of taking another one.

She had to take a shower quickly, this thing made her all dirty.

…

While Jiang Ke was happily taking a bath, at the same time, on the other side.

Zhao Tingzheng and several others were hiding in a cave built by an internet celebrity and shivering.

Because this cave dwelling was built below the ground, blocking the door with some debris would not work at all. Water would still pour directly into the cave through the gaps without mercy.

There is already water in the cave.

The cold, moist air blew in through the gaps in the debris.

And made a "woo woo" sound.

Zhao Ting's clothes were already tightly clinging to his body, outlining the outline of his strong muscles.

Everyone else huddled together, hoping that the rain would pass quickly.

They didn't dare to go out at all. In this place with no village or shop, not only would they lose their way in the heavy rain, but they would also lose their temperature quickly. They would probably fall over after walking for a long time.

"Huh~"

Zhao Ting looked around and didn't expect that he would be so unlucky.

Seeing that he was about to reach the hole on the edge of the reservoir, heavy rain began to fall. Because the hole was very close to the water surface of the reservoir, he did not dare to go there anymore and wanted to go back the way he came.

But on the way back, he found that the wooden bridge had collapsed due to the current, and some strange fish could be seen in the water.

The bright red LV10 on the fish's head made him stop rationally.

Although his talent has the entry "Under normal circumstances, monsters will not attack you", the red color on the top of this monster's head is obviously abnormal.

You must know that the monsters he usually sees are mostly yellow and green.

There are monsters seven or eight levels higher than him, and there is even a fish king who is as high as fifteen levels.

It is estimated that even the water escape technique will be discovered directly, and then he will be pinned to death in the water, right?

He really didn't dare to gamble. If he lost the bet, he would be dead.

This road was blocked and he had no choice but to take a detour, but after going around in a circle, he found that other places were either too steep and slippery to go up, or they were filled with water, and the water was full of these kinds of fish!

Helpless, he could only think of finding a safer place to stay for a while. Then he met such a group of people coming down from the mountain on the road.

According to the leader, they wanted to catch some less aggressive animals on the mountain to fill their stomachs. However, there were already signs of mudslides and landslides on the mountain.

Zhao Ting, who was also a fallen man from the end of the world, also knew that having more people would be more powerful and would make life easier. So he told these people what he had discovered.

This group of people were quite helpless, so they finally decided to spend the night in this place that used to be an "Internet celebrity cave dwelling".

But it is a place where most people take pictures and show off, so how can it be so solid?

What's more, this place has been abandoned for almost a year.

Garbage was floating in the muddy water, the plaques were covered with rust, and eight and a half of the ten cave dwellings collapsed. It was because there was a pile of debris supporting that half that it did not completely collapse.

The only cave that didn't collapse had already become a paradise for insects. It even disturbed a few snakes during cleaning.

If it weren't for the very good luck of having two water-type professionals, everyone would have been dying.

After finally cleaning up, I thought the rain would go away as quickly as it came. But it showed no sign of stopping, and instead it rained harder and harder.

Zhao Ting sat on a pile of wood that was still dry, recalling his experience this day. He really suspected that his luck bonus was fake!

"Alas~"

In the darkness, there were many sighing sounds, and despair spread in the small space.

"Brother Zhao, can we still leave this place?"

Another water professional, a boy who looked like he had just grown up, asked in a lowered voice with some uneasiness.

"You can definitely leave, don't think about it."

Zhao Ting comforted him and then clenched a jade leaf in his hand.

This jade leaf seemed to regard the "humidity and hypothermia" condition on his body as a debuff, and continued to emit warmth to dispel them.

It was only with this jade leaf that he had the confidence to persevere.

As for the others?

Sorry, that's not within his scope of consideration.

Hearing his comfort, the boy sighed and moved closer to Zhao Ting.

Zhao Ting frowned, but didn't say anything.

"I still have some food here, you eat some first, otherwise if water comes in later, you will not be able to survive without strength."

He took out a nice bun wrapped in a plastic bag from his pocket and handed it to the boy.

"Thank you, Brother Zhao!"

The boy smiled gratefully at him, then took it and wolfed it down.

Although other people couldn't see it, the smell of the buns was already strong and spread out quickly in the small space.

"I want to eat steamed buns! Dad, I want to eat!"

A harsh voice sounded, and the tone was full of coquettishness and cuteness.

But in this environment, even the sweetest child's voice sounds a little strange.

Many people were so frightened that they almost jumped.

Then there was a tired middle-aged man's voice: "Don't make trouble! Dad will find you something to eat when you go out!"

"No, I want to eat it now! Mom said, I can eat it anytime!"

The girl's voice continued to complain.

"Don't make trouble!"

There was already some anger in the man's voice, but this not only failed to suppress the bad-tempered girl, but instead made the other person's rebellious mentality suddenly come up.

She jumped off the pile of wood.

"Boom!"

Thunder sounded, and in the thunder light coming through the gap, everyone saw a girl with braids running towards the door angrily.

She opened the door and rushed out!

"Ruru!"

The man was so shocked that he rushed out without thinking too much.

"Old Li!"

It seemed that one of his companions screamed, but the man had already rushed out, and the thunder had stopped. It was already pitch black outside, and no one could be seen at all.

The man who called Lao Li gritted his teeth and wanted to chase him out.

But at this moment, the weak wooden door suddenly slammed shut.

Then, there was a knock on the door.

The knock on the door was so clear that even the sound of dripping rain could not cover it up, it was like knocking on everyone's heart.

The cave suddenly became quiet.
