Warm Dragon

A cordyceps plant is like a magical weapon or a signal amplifier.

Elf bugs can continuously release some unexplained power to the surroundings through Cordyceps, and then infect species of the same genus. Allowing species of the same genus to absorb the power of the earth and refine it into magic power, thus becoming potions or magic materials.

The blood tooth fungus and cordyceps on the rotten wood now look like a large piece of white bread with lots of strawberry jam sprinkled on top.

This strawberry jam is as full as blood.

"Sir, this is gum bleeding." The newly recruited ranger Howles took out a small vat from the hidden compartment of the Wolf Head Patio. The vat contained a purple-black sticky plaster, "All the blood tooth fungus potions After harvesting, it will all be made into gum blood.”

Russell came forward to take a look, then frowned and said, "What a waste of resources. This gum blood is just coarsely crushed Hemorrhagic Tooth Bacteria, and then mixed into some messy things. It does not exert the magic power of Hemorrhagic Tooth Bacteria at all."

"There is no pharmacist in the cave, and Old Lone Wolf...when Lisbon was alive, he prepared the medicine himself. We can only share the profit occasionally."

The production process of magic potion is very complicated.

Generally, specialized pharmacists are trained by the great nobles to make magic potions. Ordinary people do not have the skills to make magic potions even if they get the magic potion.

This is also the technical monopoly of the aristocracy.

"Katie, take someone to seal this jar of gum blood and bring it back to the manor." Russell unceremoniously took the gum blood for himself. Although he didn't like this rough plaster, he kept the reward. The subordinates are not bad either.

As for the Blood Tooth Fungus Cordyceps, Russell did not remove it.

He had to go to the Fluorescent Castle to ask Baron Roman for advice first, to see if Baron Roman knew about this kind of mushroom, and to inquire about the cultivation conditions of Blood Tooth Fungus.

Mushrooms can grow well only if the environment is optimal.

Maybe the environment in the Langtou Patio is the most suitable environment for the growth of Blood Tooth Fungus, and there is no need to transplant it to other places.

"Eric, give the Crypt Patrol three missions."

"Please give your orders."

"First, clean up the entire Xiangshui River Caves and make all free people loyal to me and register as manor serfs. If there are those who are unwilling, let them leave the Xiangshui River Caves and live in other caves." Russell said.

After a pause, he continued: "Second, arrange for personnel to be stationed in the Langtou Patio to guard the Blood Fang Fungus Field 24 hours a day."

It can be said that the most important asset of the entire Xiangshuihe Caves at present is the field in the Langtou Patio.

Russell then said the third task: "The cave patrol team can form another group of patrol members and arrange patrol routes throughout the Xiangshui River Cave. It will also be patrolling 24 hours a day to ensure that snow can be discovered as soon as possible. Ghost traces.”

"No." Eric responded in a muffled voice.

"Catherine, you assist Eric in carrying out these three tasks." Russell named again, "Katie, you continue to be my guide and take me around the Xiangshui River Caves."

"Yes, sir." Katie responded.

Eric said: "Let Kevin follow the adults and protect their safety on the road."

"Okay." Russell was good-natured. He attached great importance to his own safety. With the wolf dog Kevin by his side, no one in the cave could threaten him.

The secret passages inside the caves extend in all directions. Except for some naturally formed caves, most of them were slowly dug out by free people over many years. At the same time, cold springs and patios were used as settlements, forming a complete cave ecology.

"Cold spring, secret passage, patio..." Unconsciously, the team arrived at a patio in the deepest part of the Xiangshui River Cave.

Katie introduced: "This is called Dakou Patio."

The opening of the ice cap above the large patio is very small, and only a little light shines down from the top, forming a bright light in the patio.

"What is this called, the Darwin effect or the Dali Garden effect?" Russell stretched out his hand and touched the bright light path, thinking silently in his mind that in his previous life, he often came across this kind of beautiful scene while scrolling through Douyin on Earth.

The wellhead of the Dakou Patio is not very big, but according to Katie, the reason why the Dakou Patio got its name is that there is a snow wall piled on top of the snowfield, which protects the Dakou Patio like a big mouth.

"From here, you can go hunting in the snowfields. There are large snow forests nearby, and you can often find snow foxes and snow rabbits," Katie said.

The snowfields are not barren of grass. In some places where the ice caps are weak, the force of the earth can thin them out, so some kind of coniferous forest will grow. Although the growth is slow due to year-round ice and snow, it can still become an endless snow forest over time.

Some small animals rely on the snow forest to survive.

"Let's go up and have a look." Russell became interested.

In the memory of my predecessor, although I would go out once a year to celebrate my grandpa's birthday, I would mostly stay in the carriage and move quietly along the narrow business roads, and never truly walked freely on the snowy fields.

"Sir, Eric is not here, so be careful." Charles advised.

"It's okay, Kevin is here." Russell touched the head of Kevin, the golden and silver wolf dog, and Kevin rubbed his pants intimately.

Phantom beasts can now live freely in the snowfields.

So Russell simply gave the order, and Kevin nodded in a very humane manner, and jumped out of the patio hole with a quick leap.

After looking around, he returned to the entrance to the patio and shouted to Russell: "Woof."

"It's safe, let's go, let's go up too." Russell jumped up, his fighting spirit trembling, and he jumped up a few meters high.

Holding the hole with both hands, and then pushing upward, the man climbed up.

There was indeed a circle of snow wall around the large skylight, which could block the snow ghost's vision and prevent people from being discovered by the snow ghost as soon as they came out.

There was no wind, and the ground was covered with snow.

Russell carefully poked his head out from the snow wall and saw that there was indeed a large stretch of endless snow forest around him. Perhaps because of the arrival of the warm season, the trees in the snow forest were not covered with too thick snow at this moment. On the contrary, many branches and leaves were exposed.

They could receive the nourishment of the sun.

Even Russell's eyes moved, and he saw a little squirrel gnawing on the branches of a fir tree in the distance.

"Sure enough, there are animals and plants living on the snowfield." Russell sighed in his heart, "It seems that the power of the snow demon is endless, but no matter how strong the extreme cold is, it can't block the temperature of the earth. Life is still struggling to come out under the nurturing of the earth."

Katie followed Russell and climbed up easily.

The four knights' followers also jumped up easily.

When it came to Charles, something went wrong. Charles couldn't jump that high. He tried several times but was almost there.

"Sir, help me..." He could only stand in the patio and said pitifully.

Russell was speechless: "You should exercise... Forget it, Tom, Jack, you two help him."

"Yes."

The two knights' followers lay on the patio hole. When Charles jumped over, they grabbed Charles' hands on the left and right, and then dragged Charles up.

"Huhu..." Charles sat on the ground and took a breath. He touched his big belly awkwardly and laughed, "The patio hole is too high. It's not friendly enough for a burly knight like me."

Russell turned his head away, not wanting to pay attention to this lazy guy.

"It's time to lose weight, Sir Charles." Katie said softly.

Charles immediately raised his eyebrows at Katie: "Haha, I'll lose weight when I go back, and try to get back to the handsome and suave figure when I was young."
