Mixed Blessing System

Chapter 460 First Challenge



Meanwhile, inside the Immortals Well...

Lothur and the demon had just reached the bright spot indicated by one of the beasts outside this place.

There, this silver-haired young man realized that there was an underground area where he passed under a rock, which appeared to be the connection of connected tubules.

As he passed under this rock, he came upon an area that looked like a sizeable hollow cavern, where the water he was in ended in a small pond.

He emerged with the demon strapped to his body and was able to breathe again while looking at the surroundings with curiosity.

The cave this area was in was surrounded by white stones, which glowed in such a way that everything there was illuminated.

Lothur noticed this, and his eyes narrowed as he grew accustomed to the area\'s brightness.

The demon had inferior abilities to Lothur, so it did not take long to get used to the brightness and look carefully at the surroundings.

From where they stood in that small pond inside the cave, it could see some corridors starting from the walls opposite its position and plants in the surroundings of that area.

\'That...\' It focused its attention on a small flower at one of the most extreme points of that wall, hidden by part of the bright walls of that cave.

\'That is the Winter Breath, a medicine capable of enriching the spirituality of the one who consumes it with the element of ice!\' The demon recognized such a thing.

Demons were quite sensitive beings due to their above-average talents. Combined with the fact that this was a noble within the demonic hierarchy, this fellow tied to Lothur could quickly identify items of value, as it had already done with this opponent\'s staff.

\'I don\'t know if this will restore all my powers, but I can definitely get something!\' It held back its smile, waiting to consume that and surprise Lothur later.

While this creature was thinking about this, the silver-haired young man got used to the brightness of this area and observed everything there with his visual ability.

\'I can\'t see through those cave walls...\' He noticed this again, not knowing what he might find if he followed through any of those tunnels.

But then, Lothur looked at the surrounding vegetation, realizing they were not ordinary plants but medicines.

As with animals and beasts, plants that could cultivate were called medicines. So Lothur easily realized that these organisms could be helpful to him.

He had already been paying attention to plant organisms in his movements through this forest region. But so far, he had not come across anything of value, most of the plant life in the vicinity being just uncultivated plants.

When he saw this place in front of him, this young man soon opened a smile on his face, ready to put his luck to the test.

He left that small pond and quickly changed his clothes into a dry set while keeping the demon by his side.

"Where do you think you are going?" Lothur saw this creature approaching one of the little plants there and shouted.

"I\'m looking at the area." The demon replied in a low voice, without looking toward the item it was interested in.

"You are not here to look at the area or explore anything. I will do that. You are only here because I can\'t kill you, demon. So don\'t think we\'re partners." Lothur coldly said before he picked up his staff and moved.

He forced such a weapon toward the demon\'s knees, causing the creature to fall backward. Then this fellow made another move, striking that creature\'s head with one end of his Elemental Staff.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

The demon cried out in pain, noticing that Lothur would not take it easy on it just because they were \'together\' on this journey.

"Don\'t underestimate me, demon. You will again suffer at my hands in a few more hours." Lothur muttered as he thought about the period he would still have to wait until he could use his bloodline ability.

\'Damn it!\'

\'Stinky human! I\'m still going to kill you!\' The creature was furious, remembering how hateful Lothur could be.

Seeing Lothur in front of more powerful creatures had made it see a bit of the less dominant side of this young man. But now, in this place, away from those beings who could kill him in the blink of an eye, young Ritter was putting his \'claws\' out again!

Lothur saw the hateful expression on the blue creature\'s face and laughed before going ahead with his plans, touching each of the little plants in that area.

[Hidden Duscle] [Rank: qausi-Silver]

[Introduction: the Hidden Duscle is a natural herb from the Central Glaciers of Concordia, an area near the Frozen Origin, characterized by its intense coldness.]

[Feature: it can be used for the production of Silver-grade pills or potions or consumed, generally having the effects of tempering the soul with an elemental affinity for ice; improving the Soul attribute by 20% to 40%; may or may not improve Intelligence by 15% to 25%; improves understanding of ice element-based techniques.]

\'Wow!\'

\'That\'s really valuable!\' Lothur smiled as he realized that the first item in his path had great value to his women.

Annaliese and Viktoria trained techniques based on the water element. So their affinity for the ice element should not be slight. Hence, if he took such a thing, he could most likely help them in some way.

He then decided to pick that little semi-transparent plant, which looked like a piece of ice sculpture in the shape of a plant.

If not for his special eyes, Lothur knew that he would probably not even notice such a thing there, as should be the case for the beasts of this place.

\'How did they leave something so valuable at the entrance of this place?\' He wondered as he tried to pluck that plant out of the ground.

But in doing so, Lothur saw the problem behind why this resource was still there. It was not because of the ignorance of the beasts of this area!

The moment he acted, a solid icy wave of energy circled his body, pressing down on him as if a hand was trying to crush him.

"Uh?" Surprised by such a thing, he used the Space Belt to escape.

As he did so and appeared next to the still recovering demon, Lothur\'s eyebrows frowned as he looked at that strange thing in front of him.

\'What is it?\'

He saw a sort of ice cocoon still in formation where he was just now, something that had gone into a state of pause and shortly afterward started to disappear.

The demon saw this and laughed in its mind. \'Idiot!\'

\'To remove one of these plants, you must have an affinity with them, or the spirits in this area will not allow you to do so without passing their test!\'

\'These plants are only still here in this exposed place because there is no creature in this area with an affinity to the elements of these plants in front of us.\' It thought as it considered letting Lothur have his defeats before it took what it was interested in in this area.

However, Lothur would not give up such a useful resource easily and soon thought of something to get that thing!

\'I\'ve rushed a bit now, but that doesn\'t mean I\'m afraid of a bit of cold. Time to test my current capabilities!\'
