I'm a mage, what's wrong with loving farming?

Chapter 117: Sky Fragment, Blood Pasture Fungus

"Angel Sheep."

"But it's not an elemental creature."

Croix suddenly felt very confused. Was the thing in front of him really like an angel because of its shape, or was it really an angel sheep?
Through mental perception, they don't seem to have very strong magic power, and the magic power on their bodies is at most at the level of a first-level magical beast.

Not even as good as the ducks he raised.

He couldn't help but doubt again this monster that looked so sacred and beautiful... Could it really be a sheep in the form of an angel?

When he was wondering and hesitating whether to move forward.

The three angel sheep seemed to have discovered him and immediately made a frightened "bleating" sound.

He ran around like a madman, trying to escape in panic.

Then, they rushed towards somewhere without knowing how.

Immediately, a space crack formed in front of him, and inside it, a strange sky island and sea of ​​clouds could be vaguely seen.

"Oh, that won't do!"

Upon seeing this, Kroa immediately raised his hand and threw out a red ray, which hit one of the angel sheep with a "swish".

No matter whether he’s dead or alive, just get him first!

As a result, the angel sheep trembled slightly, bleated mournfully, and colorful chips about the size of a fingernail fell from its body.

The chip fell to the ground and looked particularly beautiful under the sunlight.

It itself was completely unharmed, not even its soft white curls had any signs of being burned.

The next second, it followed the other two sheep, escaped into the space channel, and disappeared.

Only Kloya was left, looking at the pile of chips thoughtfully.

“…Does this count as a treasure drop?”

He had seen that they were chips of five different colors, including blue, khaki, red, cyan, and... platinum.

He was very familiar with the blue chip, it was the Mercury crystal.

Then are the rest the fragments of Earth, Fire, Wind and...Sky Crystals?

He immediately stepped forward and picked up the handful of chips of different colors.

Put it in front of your eyes and observe it carefully.

Sure enough, there seemed to be clouds and skylight flowing inside the platinum-colored crystal, as if a small piece of the sky had been cut off and materialized.

This power is almost the same as the power emitted by mushrooms.

It must be the fragment of the Kongyao Crystal!
This is one of the top three attributes among the seven types of Yao Crystals. He once thought about whether he could buy it from the Holy Spring Chamber of Commerce, but the Holy Spring Chamber of Commerce replied that they did not have sufficient authority and would not sell it to him.

It’s a pity that this chip is only the size of a fingernail.

The power inside...if converted into magic power, I'm afraid it wouldn't even be enough for a fireball.

Among this handful of more than forty chips of various colors, there are only three pieces of Kong Yao fragments.

"It's good to get it."

He didn't feel that disappointed.

I'm just very curious about what the angel sheep is. It can drop crystal fragments just by hitting it. If I catch it... wouldn't it be an endless supply of crystal fragments?
He decided to see if he could buy some information from the Shengquan Chamber of Commerce after he returned.

Now, it is important to continue exploring.

After carefully putting away the fragments of the Yao crystal, he continued forward.

After walking about four hundred meters, a crack suddenly appeared on the ground in front of them, which was originally covered with ancient forage fungi.

The black cracks are so obvious in the white clouds.

On this side of the crack is the emerald green ancient grass fungus, and on the other side of the crack... the ancient grass fungus covering the earth has turned into a very strange red grass.

These small grasses lay flat on the ground like pieces of meat, with strands of red light flowing on their surfaces. At first glance, it looks like countless red streams flowing.

The air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

At first glance, the crack looked like some kind of dividing line that was preventing people from moving forward.

Kloya stopped in front of the crack for a while, staring at the red grass, and its name emerged in his mind - blood grass fungus.

This is also a kind of fungus, only one word different from the ancient forage mushroom, but the appearance and state are completely different.

Jack, who was following behind Chloe, was trembling with fear when he saw this scene and wanted to run away on the spot.

This strange grassland really looks like a hellish scene, and anyone would feel terrified and panicked.

However, Croix's expression became increasingly weird.

"Hmm? Why do these grasses feel wrong?"

He tentatively reached out his mage's hand and took a blood grass fungus. After careful observation, he was surprised to find...

After tearing it open, there are meat-like fibers inside, with a fine texture and even light white fat.

It is indeed meat, but it is not animal meat. It is made up of plant protein, which is the so-called "vegetarian meat".

In a sense, this is indeed a meat meadow, although it is vegetarian meat.

He blinked his eyes, but still did not use Jack behind him as a guinea pig. Instead, out of curiosity, he put a few into the crystal bottle.

Then, enduring the strange texture and discomfort under my feet, I walked forward on the sticky and crunchy grass.

After walking another three hundred meters, the ground in front of us suddenly sank, forming a deep pit.

At the bottom of the pit, there was a strange tree. It was about two meters tall, and its bark looked like it was made of various skins, human skin, animal skin, fish skin... It was like an evil thing spliced ​​together by some means.

There are a lot of crows flying around the tree, and they are throwing the blood grass mushrooms in their mouths next to the tree.

As soon as the blood grass fungus comes into contact with the strange tree, it will be immediately sucked dry and turned into grayish-white mycelium floating in the air.

It was as if the crows were offering it ancient forage mushrooms.

'The simulated magic tree.'

He looked at the tree's astral body and unexpectedly discovered:

Its astral body was actually also spliced ​​together, and where each branch was connected to the trunk there seemed to be the "broken limb splicing" spell structure that had been seen before.

"Is this a man-made tree?" he asked in confusion.

Being able to combine so many different structures together, this splicing method is much more powerful than his.

After admiring this wonderful spell structure for a while, he jumped down decisively, landed lightly, and began to cast a spell to disperse the crows around him.

Even if the poor crows gathered together and cawed in resistance, they were simply unable to resist a third-level wizard who was using cheats.

He was soon driven away by a constant barrage of spells.

Only then did Kloya walk leisurely to the simulated magic tree and began to carefully dig its roots.

The simulated magic tree showed no resistance and allowed Cloya to dig it out, and soon the whole tree was dug out.

Its trunk is two meters high, and its branches and leaves are lush, but its roots are very short and not as thick and long as those of small trees.

It's just like a decoration.

"Is it so easy?"

He couldn't help but sigh.

According to the dwarf alchemist, the simulated magic tree is an extremely rare magic plant. How could it be so easy to get it?
There is an unreal feeling.

In order to avoid long nights and many dreams.

Kloya took out the clock golem given by the Holy Spring Chamber of Commerce from his pocket, pointed at the simulated magic tree and ordered: "Put it in."

The clock golem nodded and shot a blue beam of light at the simulated magic tree, pulling the latter into the crystal stone on its chest.

After putting the simulated magic tree into it, it flew around Kloya and finally consciously got into Kloya's pocket.

Patting his pocket, Cloya praised: "Not bad."

The crystal on its chest can hold living things, whether they are humans, magical beasts, or magical plants.

This is very convenient. As Kloya's level gradually increases, the shell magic weapon has become a little powerless in some places, and at this time the help of the clock golem is needed.

I have to say that this little gift from Shengquan Chamber of Commerce is really good.

After putting the simulated magic tree in, the goal of getting out this time has been achieved, and it only took less than two hours.

To be honest...it was a bit too smooth.

He left the pit and looked at the area covered by clouds in the distance. He hesitated for a while, but still did not move forward.

There was no sound in the area ahead, and the fog was very thick, with a huge source of magical power emanating from it.

This source of magic power was so powerful that it made Kloya feel suffocated, and it was also the fundamental reason why he gave up further exploration.

"Let's quit while we're ahead. Since we've already got the simulated magic tree..."

Kloya began to collect the blood grass fungi growing on the ground. These things can bleed like flesh and blood, and can also feed the simulated magic tree. They are very good things no matter how you look at them.

After I go back, I will find a monster to try it out. If the monster doesn’t change or die after eating it, maybe I can use it to raise carnivorous monsters.

The only problem is: what do they grow on?

Is it the same as the ancient herbaceous fungus?

He also tried to dig through the clouds beneath the blood grass fungus to preserve them, but failed. The existence of these things depends entirely on the magic that flows throughout the island.

This kind of magic cannot be replicated by Croa.

Fortunately, even after leaving the clouds, the blood grass fungus did not lose its activity or anything.

After collecting a sufficient amount of blood grass mushrooms, Cloya turned around and left without hesitation, taking Jack, who had wanted to leave for a long time, away.

What he didn't know was that after he turned and left, a slender creature vaguely appeared in the clouds deeper in the island and looked in the direction of Kloya.

The flowing clouds formed crystal white scales on its body surface, and the intertwined light formed eight dragon horns like a crown on its head.

Its eyes were filled with a sacred platinum-colored light, without a trace of tyranny, only wisdom and compassion.

Its gaze seemed to linger for a moment on Kloya's forehead, wrists, and the area close to his dantian where magic power was concentrated.

"Lucky human...this magic."

"The mermaid is waking up. I have to get out of here."

Its sound is clear and pleasant, like a mountain spring flowing through the grass, or like the collision of gems and jade.

After watching Kroa leave the island, it lay down again, and the light wrapped around its body was injected into the earth.

The clouds that made up the island gathered towards it at an extremely fast speed and finally merged into its body.

The dragon's silhouette was like invisible and intangible mist, disappearing in the golden sunlight and sea breeze.

However, before the island disappeared, some small things fell down and landed right among the group of sea dolphins.
