Chapter 346: Botanical Garden, Remya's Time Travel
The Ugly Emperor followed Michael to the botanical garden, which looked like a modern glass building like a pyramid from the outside.

But once you go in, you'll find the scene has expanded dozens or hundreds of times, becoming as lush and green as a primeval jungle.

Michael smiled and said, "The first floor is full of common plants. They are not qualified to be placed in such an expensive exhibition space, but their value lies in the construction of a huge ecosystem. Let's go upstairs!"

Ahead was a teleportation array, and a waiter stood respectfully beside it: "Sir, please!"

The second floor suddenly opens up to a large orchard, wheat field, and vegetable patch.

Michael said, "This layer is full of common grains, fruits, and vegetables. Their value lies in preserving their original species!"

Then teleport to the third floor.

The third floor was still an orchard and vegetable garden, but Dachun immediately spotted the familiar giant pumpkin, which was incredibly large! There were also various large fruits in the orchard that he didn't recognize.

Michael said, "This floor is the experimental field where the Empire is continuously conducting breeding and improvement experiments to increase grain and vegetable production. There are several gentlemen in the library who are researchers here. If you are interested, you can communicate with them."

The Ugly Emperor nodded repeatedly in shock: "I understand..."

At this moment, Dachun suddenly remembered Shannon talking about his hometown, Watermelon Island. His research results were occupied by the island owner, Marquis Iguado. Could the Marquis's pumpkin results be here?
Then you will be teleported to the fourth floor, where the painting style is unique and there are all kinds of shining rare and precious herbs that have never been seen in the game!
Michael exclaimed, "This is where explorers have collected exotic plants from all over the world. The fluorescent flowers you're interested in are on this floor."

So we came to a nursery where colorful mineral crystals were piled up and colorful flowers were blooming.

The Ugly Emperor was astonished. "It's just as the book says. Fluorescent flowers are particularly sensitive to crystal minerals. Different colored crystals will produce flowers of different colors! And this flower can survive even in harsh environments!"

Dachun couldn't help but admire him. He'd been so focused on math, yet he still managed to remember all this. Previously, Dachun hadn't been convinced he'd lost in math, thinking he was an AI, and that was the norm as long as he didn't act pretentiously. After seeing these farmlands, Dachun changed his mind. This game had a big plan, with scientific research projects! It wasn't like just being an NPC meant to commandeer computing power and become a genius. At least Dilian was designed to be unable to read human language, so Lao Deng was designed to match the intelligence of a human genius!
Michael smiled and said to the waiter, "My friend Mr. Clown needs to study this flower. Please prepare a flowerpot."

The waiter immediately took out a flower pot and asked, "Would you like one of each color?"

The Ugly Emperor remained noncommittal: "Okay!"

But Michael said, "Wait, change to the best flower pot!"

"Okay, sir."

The next moment, the waiter took out a gorgeous flowerpot inlaid with gold and jade.

——System prompt: Congratulations! Your expert-level treasure appraisal skills have discovered a high-end magical artwork. Your treasure appraisal skills have been upgraded to Expert Level 2...

Holy crap! Just one look and I can get promoted to a level one expert?
The Ugly Emperor was shocked: "Mr. Sage, this is too expensive! What if I accidentally drop it..."

The waiter personally demonstrated by smashing the pot: "It won't fall, this is a synthetic diamond flower pot!"

Crafting? Has the game become so industrialized?

Michael smiled and said, "So, sir, please accept it. A good flowerpot shows your appreciation for the research product!"

The Ugly Emperor took the flower pot tremblingly and touched it again and again: "Indeed, I am very grateful, sir."

Michael smiled and said, "No, it's these flowers that are grateful to you! It's you who have further developed their value."

The Ugly Emperor panicked: "Maybe I can't develop it either."

Michael smiled and said, "Then let it be a gift of friendship."

The Ugly Emperor sighed, "How can I repay your friendship, sir?"

Michael smiled and said, "You are already giving back. The way you study diligently is a sign of the awakening of the lower classes. You are giving back to all the lower classes..."

Dachun was stunned! With his status, eloquence, and skills, any NPC would be defeated.

As he spoke, the waiter filled the flowerpots with seven-colored crushed crystal soil and transplanted seven seven-colored fluorescent flowers. "Sir, these flowers don't need watering or sunlight. If the glow dims, it means the crystal energy is insufficient. You can simply replace the crystal. Sir, you can come directly to the museum with this flowerpot to have it replaced."

The Ugly Emperor took it solemnly: "I understand!"

Dachun was pleased to see the density of the petals, which was just enough for Xiaohua to hide in. The light from the flowers also covered up the rune typing.

Michael pointed to a teleportation array ahead and said, "Since we're already here, why not go up one level and take a look? However, the plants on the upper level will subvert your understanding!"

The Ugly Emperor became more interested: "Okay!"

So they were teleported into the upper level, but there was no garden as before, and the venue was not that big. There were only rows of hundreds of portals, just like the second floor of the Lost Paradise Treasure Guild.

Dachun seemed to guess what it was.

As we approached the portal, we saw labels with plant-related designs next to them. Dachun was truly astonished. They were all animated, with eyes, manes, wings, and fangs. It was hard to tell if they were plants or animals! There were even some that were wriggling in fire!

The Ugly Emperor was stunned: "What are these?"

Michael said solemnly, "Most of the plants in the demonic world eat humans! Even I don't have direct permission to go in and take a look, so we can only look at their images here."

The Ugly Emperor exclaimed, "The people who caught these plants must be very brave, right?"

Michael sighed, "Yes, but all the sacrifices are worth it. These species possess magical powers that humans and even some gods do not possess."

Dachun discovered that the mutant tree demon was among them! No, this is also captured?
Then there are a few plants that look familiar, could it be?
Dachun grabbed the guide phone Zhou Qing had given him and took a look. It was exactly the same! This was the product of the previous game. She even gave the map path in detail.

The Ugly Emperor asked again, "Then these plants are not something that ordinary researchers can touch, right?"

Michael sighed, "Yes, you have to be a strong person! Ordinary people would be in danger of death just by coming into contact with the poisonous gas emitted by certain plants. Unfortunately, those who have reached this level are either successful and famous, or already hold important positions. They simply have no motivation or time to be researchers..."

What the hell!

Dachun heard that his words had a hidden meaning, and it was obvious that he believed that the Ugly Emperor was a strong man!

The Ugly Emperor seemed touched as well: "Mr. Sage, thank you for opening my eyes. I once again feel the preciousness of time. I will continue to return to the library."

Michael smiled with relief: "Okay, I'll take you back, sir."

However, Dachun noticed that there was a main portal in the room on this level. Does that mean there's another level above? So what are the plants on that level above? God-level plants?

When I think about the fact that Lao Liu is the tree god, and there is already a mutant tree spirit on this floor, once Lao Liu's actions are exposed, the collectors of the Golden Empire will definitely capture Lao Liu and take him to the next floor!
Dachun suddenly felt something was wrong and decided to switch to Dahao during the break back at the library to discuss things with Ailian and Biliana. He switched to Dahao, but Dahao was still lying flat on Ailian's bed, and Ailian still hadn't returned. Then he suddenly noticed a series of system prompts:
——System prompt: Your hood, handcuffs and shackles have been removed.

System prompt: You have been force-fed Moonlight Lake Yogurt, a royal pastry. Your hunger level has decreased. Do you wish to wake up?
Dachun was stunned. What is this?

Not only was he untied, but he was also fed? And fed such high-end food? Such treatment...was Sariel so generous?
If he wakes up, something will happen! Let's deal with the current urgent matters first.

Dachun first came directly to the prism, and it seemed that he could contact Biliana directly through the mirror.

Dachun greeted first: "Bilianna!"

Biliana said, "I'm busy. If you have anything, please come to me directly."

Uh, the clone also has a temper? But this mirror is really useful!
Dachun said directly: "Ailian is busy too. I just want you to inform Shirley not to expose the Sixth Tree God easily."

Biliana said, "Just talk to Lao Liu directly."

That's true. After all, half of the magic gold coating of the prism is with Lao Liu, so Lao Liu is equivalent to half a mirror.

"Sixth Brother, be careful to hide yourself and don't act rashly."

Lao Liu uttered a singing voice: "Master! But my roots have spread to the lower levels and are ready to attack the tree monsters below. I've even grown green leaves."

"Ah, the lower level, it should be fine, just don't let humans see it."

"I understand, Master!"

These two sentences explain the important things, isn't it too hasty?

Then wake up.

The scene changed, and Dachun opened his eyes, suddenly noticing a bright light. Was this a cell change?

With a quick glance, Dachun suddenly discovered that there was a person standing in the cell reading a book, and the light in the cell came from the book in her hand!

Dachun wondered if he was seeing things. Silver Flower Remya?! She...she? Could it be that she came to see me?
Dachun looked at the prison door in disbelief again, it was tightly closed!
What's going on? She's not going to be locked up with me just because she came to see me, right? Or did she awaken something in Valhalla last night and have some feelings for me?

Seeing Dachun wake up, Remiya also looked over, took out a box of cakes from her pocket, and said in a calm tone: "You are still very hungry, eat slowly."

Well, anyway, Dachun has gotten used to Eve Favna and is no longer so restrained towards the noble city beauty.

"Thank you, Miss Remia."

Remya continued, "I'm here because I need you to perform a task as a blasphemer. We suspect that the Undead Evil God is active in Silver City. If the Undead Evil God appears, I will take you to the Evil God to attract his attention. As long as you perform outstanding deeds, Silver City will reduce your punishment accordingly."

Dachun suddenly realized, this is how the mermaid released me?! Yes, it makes sense! But——

Dachun was surprised and said, "When I was a blasphemer in Black Iron City, I had a thick energy shield. I don't have a shield now, right?"

Remia sighed, "Unfortunately, the guardian of my city is a sea creature. She doesn't actually know blasphemous rituals, so you don't have a shield. But I will do my best to bless you with a shield."

I thought she knew everything the Guardian Angel could do! If that's the case...

Dachun asked in surprise, "Then she can't teleport?"

Remya sighed, "Yes, she can't detect the evil god hiding underground. We are completely passively defending, so I can only use this method!"

Holy shit! I was thinking of telling the mermaid about my discovery of the mithril vein to bolster her patron saint status! Turns out she can't even explore underground, so she's completely untrustworthy! But, I could tell the Silver Flower right here, right? But with the Ten Lords monitoring everything, is it safe to tell her?

Dachun tentatively asked, "Will the evil god hear our conversation here?"

Remya was stunned for a moment: "No... This cell itself is a very special mithril warehouse. Not to mention my perception strength..."

Hmm? Dachun could tell she wasn't so sure.

That's right! If her perception was really that strong, how could she not detect Beelzebub? According to Eve's theory, even if she wasn't targeted by Beelzebub in Valhalla, she would definitely be targeted by him in the real Silver City Mansion!

In addition, the ball held by Farna had already reminded her, and when she came back and was about to continue bathing, she suddenly changed her mind. In addition, she screamed when Bubu and I were fighting... With all these things, she must have some ideas!

Dachun really wanted to take out the gift prepared by Farna to deepen their relationship.

But she didn't dare to move. She said this was a mithril warehouse! At least it was a level higher than a safe. The Ten Lords were all surveillance geeks, so how could there be no surveillance equipment on the door?
Therefore, there is only one chance, wait for the evil god to appear and teleport me out. Only then can the smoke of all kinds of chaos and fighting escape surveillance. If anything, we can say it then.

Dachun made his position clear: "I will fight for this opportunity to reduce my sentence. Now, can I read a book?"

Remya said calmly: "Yes!"

After saying that, he waved his hand, and a ball of light floated above Dachun's head.

This light is brighter.

Remya asked again: "Your wheelchair seems to be broken and can't be driven normally. Aren't you going to fix it?"

Dachun is embarrassed! Of course I can fix it as a master mechanic, but I haven't dared to do it since the Phoenix killed Sariel. As soon as I did, I would be monitored by the boss's artifact. The Tenth Boss would know that I can be a master mechanic. It's really helpless to keep this secret.

Dachun pretended to be embarrassed: "This car is too advanced..."

Remya said calmly, "Then I'll help you repair it. It won't be a burden when facing the evil god."

After saying that, he raised his hand and took out a familiar ball of light, which enveloped the car.

Dachun couldn't believe it: "Ms. Remya knows how to be a mechanic?"

Remya said, "This is a divine spell that allows you to go back in time! The more advanced the artifact, the easier it is to repair!"

Damn it!
Dachun was genuinely shocked! Back in time, it was the head of the Southern Canyon Village who had gathered a group of elders and hidden talents to use this trick to repair the smashed "Space Explorer"!
Now, Remya can do it on her own, and she doesn't have the same scale as the village chief. She really is worthy of being called the city beauty, and her background is really not much worse than Eve! And this time rewinding really is worthy of being a universal repair method for artifacts!
