177: Purple Longevity Liquid
Chapter 177: Purple Longevity Divine Liquid
After dealing with Yasuo and the others, Dick did not immediately set off to leave the Beast Forest, but chose to stay here for the night.
Because the check-in condition for the Fifth Layer adventure group requires the squad to stay in the Beast Forest for three days, and they are still short by half a day.
The Super Squad's main task is to get results; they just happened to take on the task of protecting the Empress.
Dick couldn't possibly order these high-level adventurers to give up checking in and return immediately.
However, waiting a bit won't hurt. Anyway, with so many powerful bodyguards, there won't be any danger after leaving the Underground City.
Dick and his group now are practically like having 11 people escorting them. Even if they encounter professional bandits like Duncan's squad again, they won't panic at all.
Two complete Super Squads, plus a Level 68 Selena, is there anything more secure than this?
This kind of luxurious configuration can do whatever it wants in any D-level Underground City.
As for the previous ranking dispute, Elizabeth was very reasonable; she knew what was important and what wasn't, and immediately stated that she would not pursue the deaths of the other four members of the Fire Phoenix Squad.
It's normal for people to die in the Championship; either you plot against me, or I plot against you. Selena being in a desperate situation only shows that she was inferior.
And that was indeed the case. The Fire Phoenix Squad being surrounded and killed was entirely due to Selena's decision-making error.
If Dick were leading the team, even if he was the first to arrive at the Beast Forest, he would wait outside for a while and let other squads go in to check in first.
This way, the Fire Phoenix Squad would not only avoid becoming a target but could also team up with other Super Squads to surround and kill others, achieving a position swap.
Although Selena was powerful and had an excellent reputation, she was just too straightforward, which led the Fire Phoenix Squad into a desperate situation.
Temporary first place is meaningless; the final first place is true capability.
Elizabeth's political talent and ability to manage subordinates were extremely strong. Without Dick needing to remind her, she directly announced in front of everyone that the Fire Phoenix Squad would only aim for third place.
As the host, the Aimiya Empire achieving third place in the adventure group wasn't considered shameful.
As for the top two places, they would be given to the other two Super Squads. Elizabeth couldn't be bothered to manage it, and couldn't anyway.
If Elizabeth insisted on the Fire Phoenix Squad winning the Championship, it would likely cost a large sum of money, and might even lead to negotiations breaking down. This would truly be a loss greater than the gain.
As night fell, Kun, as usual, transformed his sinful body into a 'wooden house hotel'. This time it was larger and more spacious, enough to accommodate everyone.
The other adventurers did not discover that Kun was a Demon, only thinking he was some kind of high-level tree spirit, and didn't care at all.
After all, the world is vast and full of wonders. Even Dick wouldn't dare say he knows everything in the world; reverence for the unknown is essential.
Having these Super Squad adventurers stay in the wooden house actually had another benefit: Dick could monitor their every move in real-time through Kun.
These high-level adventurers were all shrewd, seasoned veterans of the Jianghu, with countless schemes in their minds.
With a hundred lifetimes of rebirth, Dick dared not underestimate anyone in the world.
In short, it's still that saying: one must be guarded against others, and one must have the intention to harm others.
At this moment, in the room on the top floor of the wooden house, Dick was seriously examining Xiao Zi's body, the proper kind.
With those professional adventurers around, Dick had much less to worry about.
Matters like taking turns on night watch, driving away Beasts, and guarding prisoners were all arranged in an orderly manner by them.
"Daddy, when will my new egg be ready? Although Mommy Mina's embrace is very soft, my old egg is still more comfortable..."
Dick said casually while examining Xiao Zi's roots and stems, "After we leave the Underground City, I'll go buy the best magic array materials to make one for you."
The 'old egg' Xiao Zi mentioned refers to the diamond treasure chest that nurtured her. It was arranged with many profound miniature magic arrays inside, which could accelerate Xiao Zi's growth.
However, according to Xiao Zi, that diamond treasure chest was accidentally dropped by A Fan into the abyss base of the Underground City and cannot be retrieved at all.
There was no other way, so Dick could only make a diamond treasure chest himself to help Xiao Zi accelerate her growth.
Generally speaking, the purple longevity divine flower needs at least ten thousand years to transform. Dick clearly couldn't wait that long.
And according to Xiao Zi's memory, she lived with that Purple Firmament Spirit Fox for over a hundred years, so it's not difficult to calculate that the diamond treasure chest could provide a five-fold growth acceleration.
Based on his current abilities, the counterfeit treasure chest Dick made could provide a ten-fold growth acceleration, increasing ten years' worth of growth in just one year!
But this was far from enough. Dick had always been impatient.
Xiao Zi must transform into a human as early as possible. Only then can she provide help beyond extending lifespan, such as... combat.
Dick didn't lack lifespan, at least not now. What Dick lacked was combat power, combat methods!
The purple longevity divine flower that has transformed into a human is, in a sense, equivalent to a transcendent being. She can use transcendent means to create a dimensionality reduction strike in regular combat.
While everyone else is still using fists and feet for close combat, blasting each other with magic, and shooting arrows at each other, I can directly use transcendent power to accelerate aging and erase lifespan.
This kind of strike on the essence of life, which is difficult for ordinary people to understand, I ask, how can you counter it?
In his past ninety-nine lives, Dick had come into contact with various forms of transcendence. That was the mighty power of rules, the domain of Gods, something to yearn for.
"Okay, if your roots and stems show any abnormalities in the future, remember to tell Daddy immediately."
Listening to Dick's instructions, Xiao Zi nodded obediently, but couldn't help but ask doubtfully, "My roots and stems used to itch every month, but Mommy A Zi didn't care..."
Hearing this, Dick scoffed.
What does that stupid fox know?
The Purple Firmament Spirit Fox had always stayed deep within the Underground City; she had long hair but short insight, so naturally, she wouldn't recognize the Purple Longevity Divine Liquid.
Every once in a while, the purple longevity divine flower will expel some impurities to make her body purer. This is the process of evolution.
But even the impurities that the purple longevity divine flower doesn't want are rare and valuable medicine for ordinary creatures!
These impurities are the Purple Longevity Divine Liquid, hailed as the most exquisite potion, whose effects can even rival quasi-God-rank magic potions!
One drop down, status full!
Five drops down, all illnesses eradicated!
Ten drops down, bring back the dead!
Looking at Xiao Zi's swollen roots and stems, Dick estimated that he should be able to harvest a few drops of Purple Longevity Divine Liquid in a few more days.
