Crimsontail Fire Luan
Chapter 288 – Crimsontail Fire Luan
Pain, pain that went deep into the bone marrow. Fatty never thought that a bite from this monster that didn’t do much damage, could inflict a pain so unbearable.
A high-rank Yao inner core was not an easy thing to get. Fatty’s level was still low and the current Elemental equipment was still adequate, but if he wanted to upgrade them in the future, high-rank Yao inner cores were a must.
The Firesource Fruit that contained the dense energy of fire element could be considered a help provided in the hour of need. How could Fatty be satisfied if he didn’t pluck off all of the Firesource Fruits on this tree?
Trying to endure the pain, Fatty tossed a red pill in his mouth. Then, he threw Harvest like mad at the tree.
Whoosh whoosh… One fruit after another went into his inventory amidst the ceaseless and furious roaring of the fire python. It gave up on fighting him and opened its jaw wide, swallowing a Firesource Fruit in one gulp.
Hooo! Scorching fire erupted from the fire python’s mouth before it pounced on another fruit. With one quickly plucking and one devouring, in less than ten minutes, all of the Firesource Fruits were gone.
"Go!" Fatty instantly Earthwalked two kilometers away, then climbed onto the Violent Ox King and quickly flew away.
The fire python viciously glared at the direction where he escaped. It wanted to pursue, but its belly rumbled. The creature had no choice but to lie down and digest the fruits it had swallowed.
Fatty quickly glanced inside his pack to see seven or so Firesource Fruits, roughly half of the total number on the tree. This was equivalent to picking up seven or so high-rank Yao’s inner cores for no reason.
"Go, let’s go find the Fire Paulownia Wood." Fatty steered the Violent Ox King to fly further into the Mountain of Flames.
The deeper he traveled, the more cautious Fatty became, until he had to pocket the Violent Ox King and kept going in using Stealth. Although the majority of the monsters here hadn’t reached the 9th class enhancement, all of them had the strength of a high-rank Yao boss. Even monsters within the same realm were divided in power. The Violent Ox King belonged to the fairly weak amongst the high-rank Yao bosses, that was why it resided in the periphery of the Mountain of Flames.
Fatty’s heart ached with reluctance as he looked at all sorts of high-ranked beasts on the way. Even the Violent Ox King had over 6000 Fire Crystal Stones in its lair and 1000 magic stones, let alone these even more powerful bosses. If it wasn’t for his current strength limiting him, Fatty would have swept his way and robbed all of these monsters.
According to West’s information, the Fire Paulownia Wood was most likely to grow in the middle part of the Mountain of Flames, where a monster named Crimsontail Fire Luan resided. Legend had it that this bird was related to the mythical beast Fire Phoenix, and also liked to perch on fortune paulownia trees, and month after month, year after year, the birds’ fire energy slowly merged with the trees to birth Fire Paulownia Wood.
"Screeeech!" A shrill scream resounded from the mountains far ahead, where a patch of red trees could be seen. Those trees were over seven meters tall with luxuriant branches and leaves that looked like fire. Within this red patch were numerous nests, obviously built by the several hundreds of birds with long red tails lying inside.
Crimsontail Fire Luans. Fatty recognized at a glance that those were indeed the monsters he was looking for. As a result, the red trees must be the Fire Paulownia Wood required by the mission.
The red patch covered an area of several thousand square meters. The tree leaves were like burning flames, the branches that were also red and looked like small twisted dragons. On the trees, each nest was over three meters in diameter. Fatty estimated that there were roughly four to five hundred nests in total.
