Chapter 242 An unexpected surprise
July 26, morning.
Richard woke up to the sound of Emerelda's happy call.
"Father, it's time to get up and have breakfast. Today there is very delicious toast~"
Get up, get dressed, and the first thing you see when you open the door is that your eyes are shaped like crescent moons, and your hands are holding a little man with an exquisite breakfast tray.
Seeing that innocent smile, Richard felt inexplicably better.
He reached out and held the other person's delicate face and kneaded it several times. Finally, he looked at the little centaur who turned his head angrily and didn't want to pay attention to him and laughed.
"Emerelda, after breakfast, I will take you to the desert."
The little centaur immediately lost his temper and looked at him with bright eyes full of surprise.
"Really?"
"Of course."
After getting the promise, the little guy immediately became excited, walked into the house quickly, and put the food on the round table, as if he wanted to finish it in one second.
After Richard washed up, he took his time teasing Emerilda while eating breakfast.
The little pony was angry and giggling, and the room was filled with a relaxed atmosphere.
After getting along with each other in the past few days, the relationship between the two has become closer and closer, and Richard really seems to have raised a daughter.
And this little guy is not only not naughty, but also very well-behaved and sensible.
Not just him, everyone in the entire Twilight City dislikes this little centaur.
After the meal, Richard did not break his promise.
He left the City of Twilight with Emerilda and came to the foot of the ancient divine tree stationed outside the territory.
Look at this powerful being without a tree trunk and haunted by poisonous wasps.
The little centaur subconsciously hid behind Richard, holding the corner of his clothes tightly.
"Father, I'm afraid."
The voice was small, as if he was afraid of being heard by the ancient divine tree.
Looking at that cute look, Richard chuckled.
"Don't be afraid, Treebeard won't hurt you."
As he spoke and waved his hand, the ancient divine tree immediately twisted its branches and built an upward ladder in front of him.
He is simply more well-behaved than anyone else.
Richard walked step by step towards the tree crown on this pure natural ladder.
"Emereda, follow me."
Seeing this scene, the servant's eyes immediately lit up.
"Yes, Father."
First he took a cautious and tentative step, and then after confirming that there was no problem, he immediately walked happily up the tree trunk.
After a while, the two came to the top of the tree canopy.
Standing at a height of more than 30 meters overlooking the unobstructed desert, Emerida's face was filled with excitement.
"Father, you see they are getting smaller."
"Look, that's Uncle Ned. He gave me a delicious piece of bread yesterday."
"The blacksmith shop is over there! Sister Andel said she wanted to customize a beautiful set of armor for me."
"Ah, shame, sister Ruili changed her clothes without closing the window."
"."
The chirping innocent words filled the air with childishness.
Richard ignored the excited little guy and directly let the ancient divine tree move towards the agricultural area.
Get orders.
Bah~
Huge roots shot up from the ground, and the ground was suddenly filled with sand and rocks, and large cracks appeared.
Yellow sand splashed dozens of meters high.
This exaggerated movement caused Emerelda to exclaim again, and she excitedly pulled Richard to let him see.
After crossing the agricultural area, Richard continued to ask the other party to walk deeper into the desert.
After about 15 kilometers.
Only then did the ancient divine tree stop and take root in the earth again.
Richard checked the system map to confirm that he had reached the target - this area is to the north of the territory.
Without hesitation, he took out a slightly gray crystal from the system space - the Land of Quicksand.
This 4-star treasure obtained from the faceless statue can be placed on a quicksand land with a diameter of 10 kilometers.
More importantly, he can gain part of the experience from the enemies he kills in the Quicksand Land.
This is very comfortable.
You can make money while lying down, you are like a charterer in a fantasy world.
Thinking of this, my mind moved.
"Ding~ Do you want to place the Quicksand Land here? Note: Once the Quicksand Land is placed, it cannot be moved."
confirm.
The next second you make your choice.
The crystal ball in front of him suddenly shattered.
A strong energy surged out like a storm, pouring crazily into the surrounding sand.
With the ancient divine tree as the center, it spread rapidly to the surrounding areas.
Richard looked at the quicksand land that seemed to be the same on the ground, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
It's just quicksand, but it can be rated as a 4-star treasure. Is this thing so powerful?
With some tentative thoughts, he floated up and slowly landed on the sand.
The moment he stood on the sand, his body immediately fell uncontrollably.
It was like standing in mercury, the seemingly thick gravel was completely unable to support his weight.
In just a few breaths, the gravel sank directly into his thighs.
Richard felt the pulling force like countless arms frantically pulling on his feet, and suddenly felt a little weak.
Damn, I underestimated the power of quicksand.
His body exerted force, trying to force his legs out of the gravel.
But in the sinking quicksand with no support points, the more he struggled, the faster he sank.
After the yellow sand buried his abdomen, Richard couldn't bear it anymore.
A low roar came from his throat, and his bloodline power exploded to the extreme.
The gravel below exploded, and the body suddenly rose up from the sunken ground.
The power of the dragon.
He used brute force to break free from the confinement of the quicksand.
But the smile that just appeared on Richard's face froze immediately after he fell to the ground.
His footing sank rapidly again.
In this land of quicksand, there is no safe area at all.
Richard tilted his head and did not use the super-A skill of controlling yellow sand. Instead, he used the powerful power he gained from bathing in dragon blood to rush from a hundred meters away to the foot of the ancient divine tree.
By the time he was holding on to the tree trunk, his forehead was already covered with sweat.
Quicksand was far scarier than he imagined.
In an area with no support and sinking everywhere, the stronger you are and the more you struggle, the easier it is to be swallowed by the yellow sand.
It's not as simple as he thought.
The best way is to use gentleness to overcome softness, avoid excessive movements, and increase the contact surface.
As Richard's thoughts were spreading, the system prompt suddenly sounded.
"Ding~ The Land of Quicksand is successfully placed. For every enemy killed in the Land of Quicksand, you will gain a portion of experience."
"Ding~ It is detected that there is a boss unit in the Quicksand Land. Do you want to place the boss unit in the Quicksand Land? Note: After placement, the boss unit can control the Quicksand Land."
After Li Cha read the prompts several times, his eyes immediately lit up.
Can a boss be placed in the quicksand land?
It seems not bad to let the ancient divine tree control the quicksand.
Select OK now.
The next second.
The pale yellow light that originally isolated the ancient divine tree surged in and enveloped it.
After the light dissipated, the aura of the ancient divine tree had merged with the surroundings.
When Richard was about to check out the new attributes of the Quicksand Land, he suddenly felt a shock under his feet, and then a scene appeared in front of him that made his breath freeze.
The ancient divine tree moved quickly in the desert without pulling out its roots. No, it was not that it was moving, but the surrounding gravel was flowing.
Manipulate quicksand.
The ancient divine tree used the properties of quicksand to drive itself like a car.
Richard's expression was a bit astonished. He never thought that quicksand could be used in this way.
After coming back to his senses, he gradually felt that something was wrong. The ancient tree of evil had gained super mobility? ?
After thinking about it, a bright smile suddenly appeared on his face.
This time, big profits! !
What is the strongest thing about the Ancient Tree of Sin? Stand and masturbate!
With its huge body and tree trunks with instant death characteristics, its combat effectiveness in frontal battles is definitely the ceiling of its level.
And what is the opponent's biggest weakness? Not flexible!
Even if the opponent can pull out the tree roots and escape, this shortcoming will still be fatal.
He just took advantage of the opponent's inflexibility to subdue him.
But now, the emergence of the Land of Quicksand is different.
When a standing boss is almost invincible, he gains a movement speed that is more flexible than ordinary people.
Then how exaggeratedly will the combat effectiveness of this boss be improved? ? !
Richard instantly felt that the value of this quicksand land was countless times higher than he imagined. (End of chapter)
