Seeing the data change on the panel once again, Ron finally managed to pull his consciousness away from the complex memories that Mel had been swirling around.

"Phew~ It's finally over."

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief; everything that had happened before had put him under tremendous pressure.

To be honest, if it weren't for "fortune's favor," I might have really failed.

Of course, if Ron were given another chance to choose, he would definitely come here to seek the legacy, not for anything else, but simply to survive.

After all, without this huge gain, he might have already gone mad from excessive pollution, and wouldn't be able to comfortably dream about the future here.

However, when he saw the pollution level column, he couldn't help but feel anxious.

Although the immediate problem has been solved, the level of pollution has not yet reached a normal and reasonable threshold.

If things continue like this, madness is only a matter of time.

Thinking of this, Ron's relaxed mood vanished instantly, and the string that had been loosened tightened up again.

"Still too weak."

I sighed inwardly, then forced myself to stop thinking about it.

Looking at what remained in the lava cave below, a thought suddenly occurred to him: "Should I take what's left?"

The log cabin, the golden tree, and the ores left on the island by the red flame birds—all of these remained intact after so much, indicating that they were definitely high-grade materials he didn't recognize.

"How could I forget about the control panel?"

Ron suddenly patted his head, unsure if he was too deeply affected by Mel's memories.

These are rare and wonderful things that I've never seen or had access to before, and I'm only now thinking of using the panel to check their information.

The moment he saw the information on the panel, his mouth gaped open as if it could fit an egg, and his face was filled with astonishment.

The following cultivation methods are recommended.

[Option 1: Water it with Water of Life (diluted 100 times) once a month, which will increase its growth rate by 300%...]

Besides these two main gains, there were so many other magical energy materials that it was impossible to take them all in.

Left with no other choice, Ron had to take out some low-value items from his storage bag, such as the glow grass he had just picked. He threw away some of the grass that had just reached the standard length, and then put these rare materials into his own pocket.

He finally breathed a long sigh of relief after collecting most of the high-value materials.

However, the last two items in front of him posed a challenge.

One is a small wooden house, and the other is a tree of considerable size.

Judging from the space in his storage bag, even if he cleared out everything, it would be impossible for him to take away these two treasures.

In the end, he had no choice but to give up. Although the ability of this thing to reduce pollution was very attractive, there was nothing he could do since he couldn't take it with him. He could only wait until he had the ability to do so in the future.

However, the situation changed shortly afterward.

As he tried to leave using the power of the Molok Firebird bloodline within him, he suddenly felt a strange sense of familiarity.

Following this feeling, I looked back and found that it was from the last two remaining items.

But what's the use of that?

For some reason, Ron walked to the tree as if possessed, and even gently touched the surface of the golden tree with his hand. Then, something surprising happened.

The tree in front of us seemed to come alive, quickly pulling its roots out of the soil.

Like a child seeking praise, the "sapling" quickly spread its "arms" and rushed towards Ron.

He only stared at it blankly for a moment, and then made no other move.

At first, I was a little worried about being crushed to death, but then I thought about it again. My physical attributes are now higher than my mental attributes, so why would I be afraid of a small tree?

The expected outcome of him falling backwards did not occur, because the moment the golden tree approached him, his body began to shrink slowly.

He only made contact with the other party when he shrank to one-twentieth of his original size.

Unexpectedly, the other person's body was not as hard as he had imagined. Instead, it felt very soft when he hugged it, as if the two were about to merge.

His feeling was correct; the other person was indeed slowly merging into his body.

The dark red cave in his field of vision was suddenly filled with a dazzling golden light, and Ron could barely keep his eyes open.

When he could see things clearly again, he realized that the sapling in his arms had disappeared.

Instead, I felt a warm, comfortable sensation coming from my chest.

Just as he was becoming so engrossed in this feeling that he couldn't extricate himself, another strange event occurred.

After the golden tree merged into Ron's body, the small wooden house next to him was not to be outdone. It flew towards Ron's direction, then shrank and disappeared between his eyebrows.

Before Ron could even react, the last two items he had left disappeared from his body.

Although he didn't know what would happen next, he had a vague feeling that this wasn't a bad thing.

So he just let it be. As for checking the panel, he did want to, but now was not the time to do that; getting out of there was the priority.

So he spread his wings and flapped them forcefully, as if using his own hands, and flew back the way he came.

As for the location of the exit, he already knew it through Mel's memories.

"Haha, kid, you've finally come out. You got quite a few good things in there, didn't you? Hand them over obediently, and I'll spare your life, how about that?"
