Versatile Mage: One innate talent for each system

Chapter 148 You two stayed outside all night?

As night fell, the starry sky over the Gobi Desert was as brilliant as ever, yet it also revealed a sense of vast emptiness and desolation.

The two looked at the stars, exchanging a few words every now and then.

"This should cure insomnia." Jiang Yuan took out a small, pale red flower from his pocket.

"What is this?" Mu Nujiao took it.

"I don't know what it's called, but it can help you sleep well. You'll know if you smell the fragrance on it," Jiang Yuan said.

Upon hearing this, Mu Nujiao brought her nose closer and sniffed.

A strange fragrance wafted faintly.

A few seconds later, her mind suddenly relaxed, and she was enveloped by a strong sense of drowsiness.

"So sleepy~" Mu Nujiao murmured softly, closed her eyes, and lay motionless on the rock.

"Huh?" Jiang Yuan was stunned.

No, are these flowers really that effective?
She can fall asleep instantly?!

Mu Nujiao did fall asleep, but what kind of thing is it to sleep on a rock?

Jiang Yuan got up, picked up Mu Nujiao, and stopped in front of the girls' tent.

There were so many girls in the tent, it was really inappropriate for him, a man, to go in alone.

"Never mind, it should be fine to sleep outside." Jiang Yuan sighed, went to the boys' tent to get his sleeping bag, and put Mu Nujiao inside.

Even with such a big movement, Mu Nujiao remained sound asleep, showing no signs of waking up.

That flower can hypnotize the soul; its effect is incredibly powerful.

Seeing Mu Nujiao sleeping so soundly in his sleeping bag, Jiang Yuan suddenly felt that his sense of morality was much stronger than Mo Fan's.

If it were Mo Fan, he would definitely try to take advantage first.

They even had the audacity to go directly into the girls' tent.

Or they could sleep together all night, with the sky as their blanket and the earth as their bed, cuddling together.

That's shameless, Mo Fan.

Inside the boys' tent, seemingly sensing someone chirping, Mo Fan sneezed in his sleep, smacked his lips, turned around, and started snoring again.

The next morning.

As the sun rose, its scorching rays fell upon the Gobi Desert, causing the temperature to rise rapidly.

"Mmm~~~!!"

Mu Nujiao woke up and stretched out a very comfortable nap.

She looked around and saw Jiang Yuan sitting to the side with his eyes closed, resting. When he saw her wake up, he opened his eyes.

The two looked at each other.

"I'm sorry, I was too tired yesterday and accidentally fell asleep. Did you stay out all night?" Mu Nujiao asked shyly, her face slightly flushed.

"It's nothing, a minor issue. I'm just glad you got a good night's sleep. If you have insomnia again, you can smell that flower again," Jiang Yuan said, shaking his head.

"it is good."

Mu Nujiao climbed out of the sleeping bag, carefully packed it away, and placed it in front of Jiang Yuan.

"You two stayed out all night?"

A voice rang out, and it was Jiang Shaoxu who came out of the tent. She covered her mouth and looked at the two of them with a gossipy expression.

"It's too hot in the tent, come out and get some fresh air," Jiang Yuan said expressionlessly.

"Oh, it's really too hot, really too hot." Jiang Shaoxu smiled, but her tone wasn't very serious.

Mu Nujiao felt even more embarrassed, but she didn't explain anything. She just said she was going to wash up and left.

Jiang Shaoxu now felt even more strongly that something was amiss between the two of them.

This is too obvious!

Jiang Yuan continued to rest with his eyes closed until everyone woke up. Later, Mo Fan and the others got up one after another, packed up their tents and other belongings, ate a simple breakfast, and began exploring the ruins.

"It's all just rocks, not a single good thing." After searching for a long time without finding anything of value, Mo Fan complained.

This was far from what he had imagined.

“This place has probably been visited by many hunters, so even if there are good things here, we won’t get them,” Zhao Manyan said.

"Damn it, wasn't that a complete waste of time?!"

Mo Fan was annoyed. His eyes involuntarily drifted to the lightning storm in the center, and he suggested, "Why don't we go inside that lightning storm? It's crackling and popping inside; there must be something good in there!"

"If you want to die, don't drag us down with you." Guan Yu rolled her eyes.

"We've come all this way and haven't gotten anything. Why don't we go inside and take a look? Maybe we can get a Soul Seed? That's worth at least several hundred million!" Mo Fan really wanted to go in, looking like he couldn't stand not going in.

“The storm in here requires at least a Super-Rank mage to pass safely. If we just go in like this, we're practically committing suicide. If you're going to go in, then go in, but don't drag us down with you,” Guan Yu said.

Hearing him say that, Mo Fan felt a little scared.

Only those of superior rank can withstand it, which is indeed very unsafe.

But since we've already come all this way, it's really frustrating not to have gotten anything good.

Mo Fan looked at Jiang Yuan: "Old Jiang, you're the captain, what do you think about going in to take a look?"

Everyone looked over.

After this period of training, they have truly felt how strong Jiang Yuan is. To this day, they still don't know how much of Jiang Yuan's strength he has yet to reveal.

If Jiang Yuan decides to go in and take a look, they are willing to go in and give it a try.

Moreover, Jiang Yuan is the team leader, so he can go wherever he wants.

“Let’s not go in, let’s go somewhere else. There’s more than just this one place in South America, there’s no need to take this unnecessary risk,” Jiang Yuan said after a moment’s thought.

Since the captain had said so, everyone prepared to return home.

South America is a treasure trove of resources.

Many places that have maintained their original appearance often become places where hunters make a fortune, earning tens of millions every year is not a problem.

Experienced hunter teams can sometimes earn hundreds of millions a year!

Next, Jiang Yuan plans to lead his team into the primeval forest to help them obtain some resources.

Then head straight to the Nazca Lines!
The return journey still involves passing through the Gobi Valley.

However, the Forbidden Moon Stone Demon was nowhere to be seen in the Gobi Valley at this time, and even the few surviving ones had vanished without a trace.

“Not a single Forbidden Moon Stone Demon is left here. Old Jiang, you went too far.” Mo Fan shook his head with a “tsk tsk”.

Jiang Yuan didn't respond, but said, "Places where earth elemental giants live together should have a lot of earth elemental treasures. Last time we were busy going to the ruins and didn't have time to search in the Gobi Valley. This time we can take a look."

"There's treasure?! Why didn't you say so sooner!"

Upon hearing that there was treasure, Mo Fan's eyes lit up immediately, and he ran to the stone wall to search for it without saying a word.

He was lucky; he managed to pry off a piece of incredibly shiny, brownish-yellow crystal from the walls on either side.

"Holy crap, it's Yuan Jing!" Zhao Manyan exclaimed.

Upon hearing this, the others all looked over, confirming that this was a Yuan Crystal even more precious than the Star River Vein.

A single Yuanjing crystal can fetch over 100 million at an auction!
The presence of one elemental crystal proved that there were many more nearby, so everyone immediately began a thorough search.

Jiang Yuan joined the team but only pretended to be there; he didn't focus on finding Yuan Jing.

Otherwise, with his mental strength, he could have found all the elemental crystals by himself.

To be honest, with over two billion crickets, there's not much motivation.

In the end, almost everyone found one or two Yuan Crystals.

Now we really don't lack resources.
