Chapter 3: Mysterious Immortal Grass
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
On the third day of the novice protection period, Osmond and Hill gradually got the hang of the game.
Hill said to Osmond, “You saved my life. I’ll follow you from now on. Let me know if there’s anything you need.”
Osmond was waiting for Hill to say this.
Osmond said, “We’re all brothers. I’ve been meaning to ask… how did you advance two levels in two days?”
Hill confessed, “In this world where the strong prey on the weak, survival is the only way. So I tried my best to increase my level.”
Hill continued, “That day, when I was in the forest, I accidentally discovered a wetland deep in the forest. There were some flowers and plants around the wetland. One of the grass was particularly eye-catching, so I went over to take a look. Then, I smelled a faint fragrance and couldn’t help but pull it out and eat it.”
Osmond listened intently. “And?” he said.
Hill recalled.
“Two to three minutes later, I felt a wave of heat gushing out of my stomach. My body felt hot, and it lasted for half an hour. In the end, I realized that my stamina was full of strength.”
“In an instant, I increased by two levels.”
“I became so full of energy and so unbearably hot.”
“So in the forest, I kept attacking the tree trunks to release some of my energy. And that’s when you came,” Hill recalled.
Osmond asked in surprise, “What kind of grass is that? It sounds like it has great power. Unbelievable.”
“I only know that the grass is dark yellow and has a faint osmanthus fragrance. As for what kind of grass it is, I don’t know either,” Hill replied.
Osmond naturally knew what was going on, so he did not continue asking.
“There are only six hours left in the novice protection period. All players, please be prepared.”
‘If I consume the grass that Hill mentioned, I’ll be able to advance by two levels. This is the first time I’ve heard of such a thing. I wonder if such grass still exists in the forest,’ Osmond thought.
Of course, Osmond would not let go of this grass, because for the current situation, leveling up would mean increasing his chances of survival.
Hill saw through Osmond and said, “There are still six hours before the protection period is over. We can go to that place again to see if there is any immortal grass.”
Osmond said decisively, “Yes, let’s go now.”
Arriving at the wetlands, the two of them searched everywhere. After two hours, they still could not find the immortal grass that Hill had mentioned.
“Let’s go to other places to look. Maybe the immortal grass is also in other places,” Osmond said to Hill.
“Yes, let’s go look elsewhere,” said Osmond.
After that, another two hours passed. They went through the cracks in the rocks, entered the bushes, and searched through most of the forest. They still did not find any immortal grass. The two of them were slightly tired.
“Hiss…”
The two of them were about to sit down and rest when they suddenly heard some movement in the forest.
“What’s that sound?” Hill asked.
Osmond flapped his wings and flew dozens of meters high. He looked down from the sky with his golden eyes and observed the forest.
At this moment, a giant python was hunting a bullfrog. This giant python was twenty meters long and two meters in diameter. It raised its head and quickly crawled towards the bullfrog.
“Whoosh…”
The python stared at the bullfrog for a few seconds. Then, it seized the opportunity and swallowed the bullfrog.
This bullfrog was obviously not enough for the python. After that, the python quickly left.
Osmond saw the python in the air, but he did not pay much attention to it.
However, the python seemed to have discovered Hill and quickly crawled toward him.
Osmond’s heart couldn’t help but tremble.
Osmond shouted, “Hill, look out!”
He did not expect that the python, who had just finished eating the bullfrog, would also be tempted when it saw Hill.
Hill wasn’t someone to be trifled with. After all, he was an Earth War Bear and was already level 2 before the game had even officially started. He wouldn’t be easy to bully in the forest.
Hill roared, and the tree shook. In an instant, all the birds in the forest flew out.
The python raised its head and looked at Hill.
It seemed like Hill’s roar had intimidated the giant python and it did not move for a while.
Hill’s golden bracelet read the python’s data.
[Name: Giant Rock Python]
[Level: 5]
[Attribute: Poison, Stone]
[Talent: Physical Attack 50, Physical Defense 50, Magic Attack 40, Magic Defense 60, Speed 70]
[Skills: Bind, Venom Spray]
“This fellow’s strength cannot be underestimated,” Hill said.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Osmond flew down.
Hill said, “Osmond, it’s attacking from behind.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Osmond shot straight into the sky, flashing his sharp dragon claws. He tore through the sky and grabbed the python.
Giant Rock Python responded quickly and spat black venom at Osmond.
“Psst…”
Osmond dodged. The venom did not hit Osmond.
Hill quickly rushed over and grabbed the python in the area where its heart was located. He wanted to tear the python apart with his strong arms.
However, Hill’s Tear skill was not activated, and his strength was not enough.
The python instantly used its Bind skill to bind Hill tightly.
Hill could not move and was in danger.
Suddenly, Osmond let out a roar, spread his wings, bit the python, and tore off its head. The python immediately fell to the ground.
Hill heaved a long sigh. He had almost been killed by the python.
The system prompted.
“Ding-Dong! Killed a Giant Rock Python. Experience Points +20.”
“Ding-Dong! Killed a Giant Rock Python. Experience Points +20.”
“Ding-Dong! Killed a Giant Rock Python. Experience Points +20.”
Ding dong! Level increased by 1!
“Ding Dong, obtained a stalk of Spirit Yellow Grass!”
“I didn’t expect to have an unexpected harvest. What is this Spirit Yellow Grass for?” Osmond asked.
Scheer exclaimed, “This… This is the immortal grass we’re looking for. It’s dark yellow and has a faint osmanthus fragrance!”
[Spirit Yellow Grass, a rare immortal grass that grows in the damp areas of the forest. It can increase the player’s experience and talent for a short period of time.]
It turned out that the Giant Rock Python had eaten a stalk of Spirit Yellow Grass earlier. When Osmond killed it, the grass fell from its body.
“My hard work paid off. Haha, what a good immortal grass,” said Osmond happily.
“I won’t eat it just yet. I’ll keep it for now,” Osmond said.
For the arrogant Abyssal Dragon Demon King, he preferred to rely on his own strength to increase his level and talent.
