204: Chapter 204 Special Item! Soul Incense!

Looking at the colorful ribbon in his hand, and the Bandage Wraith that had dissipated without a trace.

Lin Mo frowned slightly.

"This monster..."

"Doesn't have a crystal core?"

Luo Siyue, while rubbing the faint red line on her neck, explained to Lin Mo: "This monster is just like that."

"Their source of power is this ribbon, so they don't have crystal cores."

Lin Mo's frown deepened.

Missing out on the income of one crystal core, he couldn't help but feel a bit at a loss.

However...

Lin Mo felt...

The energy contained within this colorful ribbon was indeed no less than a crystal core.

A thought suddenly stirred in his heart...

This thing...

Could he eat it?

He thought about it; anyway, it was only worth two points.

He could afford this little cost of trial and error.

When Luo Siyue looked towards the ruins to search for traces of monsters.

Lin Mo shoved the colorful ribbon into his mouth without hesitation.

Hmm.

It's a bit like those long spicy strips he ate when he was a kid.

Spicy and fragrant.

It was indeed edible!

Lin Mo chewed it quickly a couple of times, then swallowed it directly.

Then, a line of small text appeared before his eyes.

[Gluttony Talent successfully fed, converted experience points +1500, Green Lotus Enlightenment gained experience points +150]

Hmm...

The experience points given are a bit low.

Lin Mo waited for a second, and after discovering no other small text appeared.

He sighed inwardly.

As expected, special energy that can increase attributes like the Rock Armor Turtle's heart is rare.

Fortunately, it was only two points; testing it wasn't a loss.

"Let's go, continue."

Lin Mo officially stepped into the ruins.

As soon as he stepped in, Lin Mo discovered three Bandage Wraiths had cast their gazes upon him.

The corners of Lin Mo's mouth curled up slightly.

These Bandage Wraiths are so aggressive.

It actually saves him trouble.

Come on!

My points!

The three Bandage Wraiths did not disappoint Lin Mo.

After discovering Lin Mo, they teleported in front of him without hesitation.

All three ribbons looped towards Lin Mo's neck.

Lin Mo didn't dawdle.

Spreading the love equally, he rewarded each Bandage Wraith with a punch.

Even though these guys had already reached Tier 2, Stage 9.

Their innate defense wasn't strong.

An ordinary punch was enough to shatter their bodies and make them dissipate.

Leaving only three colorful ribbons behind.

Lin Mo gathered them all up.

"Hmm, still a bit slow; that's only six points."

The corners of Luo Siyue's mouth twitched slightly.

Still complaining it's slow...

If this were any other team, they would probably be grinning from ear to ear if they had this speed of earning points, right?

Lin Mo suddenly looked at Luo Siyue and asked: "Sister Siyue, is there any way to attract all these Bandage Wraiths to one place?"

"Like how Wolf Granny could attract others of its kind?"

Luo Siyue shook her head, "I haven't heard of such a thing..."

Just as Lin Mo was feeling a bit disappointed.

"However..." Luo Siyue suddenly remembered something, and she changed the subject, "This thing might be useful."

Luo Siyue reached out and swept her hand in front of her Storage Pouch, and an unremarkable-looking stick of incense appeared in her hand.

"This is..." Lin Mo was a bit curious.

"Tier 2 Soul Incense," Luo Siyue introduced: "After this thing is lit, it can emit a unique fragrance that can temporarily drive away monsters of Tier 2 and below. Of course, that's assuming you haven't already attracted the monsters' aggro; if combat has already started, it's ineffective."

Lin Mo was full of confusion, "That's not right, Sister Siyue, what I want is to make them gather together."

Luo Siyue said with a smile: "Normally it's for driving them away, but if you mix it with a crystal core before lighting it, the effect of its burning will turn into attracting creatures of that group to approach."

Lin Mo's eyes lit up.

The way he looked at the Soul Incense changed.

Such a good thing.

It suits him very well.

Why hadn't he heard of it before?

"This thing was created by a professor at our Imperial Capital Academy. It only circulates within our Imperial Capital Academy, and it can only be purchased using points."

Lin Mo suddenly realized, "Then this thing must be quite expensive, right?"

The main core value of this thing is being able to forcibly drive away monsters.

It can make monsters of Tier 2 and below all actively avoid you.

This kind of thing can save lives at critical moments.

So even if Lin Mo thought about it with his toes, he knew the price wouldn't be cheap.

Luo Siyue nodded, "It's okay, the price of Tier 2 Soul Incense is one hundred points."

"The higher the grade, the price increases exponentially. Tier 3 already requires five hundred points to buy."

As she spoke, Luo Siyue handed this stick of Soul Incense to Lin Mo.

"Take it and use it, it's a gift."

Lin Mo scratched his head, feeling a bit embarrassed, "How could I accept this, Sister Siyue~"

Luo Siyue chuckled, "I just love seeing you call me 'sister'."

"Oh? Really?" The corners of Lin Mo's mouth curled up, "Sister, sister, how about ten more sticks of Soul Incense? Tier 3 would be best, I wouldn't mind Tier 2 either."

"Get lost, get lost, get lost!" Luo Siyue didn't expect Lin Mo to be so thick-skinned, actually pushing his luck.

Then Luo Siyue said seriously: "If you hadn't been there back in Mist City, I'm afraid our team would have been in great danger."

"So, this can be considered my way of expressing gratitude."

"However, I must remind you," Luo Siyue's tone became a bit more serious.

"The effect produced by mixing this with a crystal core and lighting it is theoretical."

"I haven't actually tried it specifically."

"In case it attracts too many Bandage Wraiths..."

Lin Mo's mouth curled up, "The more the merrier, the more the better!"

After thinking for a moment, Lin Mo added: "Sister Siyue, stay a little further away from me, keep a safe distance."

Luo Siyue nodded, then still feeling uneasy, she had Bulbasaur tie a vine whip around Lin Mo's body.

If the situation went wrong.

She would have Bulbasaur forcibly pull Lin Mo away.

It counts as an extra layer of insurance.

To put Luo Siyue at ease, Lin Mo didn't refuse.

After Luo Siyue walked to a relatively safe position.

Lin Mo brought the colorful ribbon close to the Soul Incense.

A strange scene occurred; the ribbon, like fine sand attracted by a magnet, quickly disintegrated into specks of light and merged into the Soul Incense.

Replacing it, a strange colorful pattern appeared on the surface of the Soul Incense.

"Now that it's lit, it should be able to attract Bandage Wraiths to approach, right?"

There was some excitement in Lin Mo's eyes.

Counting the colorful ribbon, the cost of this thing is equivalent to 102 points.

He needs to attract at least 51 Bandage Wraiths to break even.

Hope it doesn't disappoint him.

Lin Mo lit it with a lighter.

As a wisp of smoke rose.

An extremely unique fragrance also quickly dispersed.

Not to mention, it actually smelled quite good.

Lin Mo just stood there quietly holding the incense.

While Luo Siyue was nervously looking around.

Very quickly.

Luo Siyue's expression changed slightly.

It had only just been lit.

In the distance, many figures floating in mid-air had already appeared!
