Chapter 747 - 224: Backseat Driver Parents, Green Origin Clan Heritage
Looking at the decomposition introduction, Jiang Luo felt it resembled a Spirit Plant more.
After all, monsters that don’t fight are indeed rare.
At least before the Senluo Forest Region opened, even the Level 0 little crabs at the Colorful Mist Coast would use their pincers to clamp players.
Fearing that newcomers would snatch the monster, they immediately took action.
Once the Extraction Characteristic was activated, the spore-colored mushroom, upon contact with the green light, began to dissolve at a visible speed.
However, the attacked spore-colored mushroom didn’t move and remained standing dumbly.
The other three spore-colored mushrooms around it also had no reaction, seeming entirely non-threatening.
In Jiang Luo’s eyes, this was one of the significant difference between plant monsters and flesh system monsters: the intelligence level of plant monsters is generally low.
Yet, in terms of the thickness of the health bar, plant monsters are significantly higher than flesh system monsters.
This reminded him of an obscure post he once saw on the forum.
A bored player had made a dull analysis post about monster types, with only a few scattered player responses.
This player attempted to use real-world logic to explain why the Life Strength of plant monsters of the same level is higher than that of flesh system monsters.
He stated that plants are composed of cellulose cell walls, providing their cells with additional support and protection, making them more resistant to physical damage.
He further noted that plants have stronger cell division abilities, and their self-repair and regeneration capabilities are also superior to flesh life.
In terms of lifespan, some plants live very long, even surviving thousands of years.
Thus, considering the Life Strength in Monster World, plant-type life forms are more durable than same-level flesh system monsters, consistent with real-world logic.
Finally, he said this was a very subtle setting in Monster World.
But for Jiang Luo, with the Extraction Divine Skill in hand, any plant monster could be easily defense-broken.
In less than ten seconds, the mushroom monster was decomposed into a Plant Essence Ball.
During this process, his best friend Mahua stood by, not even needing to step forward to resist the monster’s output.
After the kill was completed, a prompt sounded.
The level of Extracting Life Soul also reached Level 3 at this time.
With the increase in Life Soul Level, the destructive power surged, and the remaining three spore-colored mushrooms were taken down even faster.
Jiang Luo stepped forward to collect the Plant Essence Balls, put them into the Space Bag, and was about to continue when a comment scrolled past.
"Son, before you kill, check the Trading House? This kind of nutrient-rich plant-type monster fetches high prices at the Trading House. Using extraction to kill is too wasteful."
Upon seeing this, Jiang Luo replied annoyedly:
"Spore-colored mushrooms are exclusive to the Senluo Forest Region; they aren’t sold in the Trading House, so there’s no price comparison."
Just as he finished speaking, another comment scrolled past:
"These items can be checked in the commission list; you might find something there."
Feeling a bit helpless, Jiang Luo still opened the Trading House, mentally touching the commission list.
Suddenly, a lot of information was listed.
There were all sorts of demand posts from other players.
In the search bar, he typed "spore-colored mushroom," and after the search bar redirected, three pieces of information appeared.
The leading commission information read:
[Asking where to find the main ingredient spore-colored mushroom in the Spirit Food Atlas’s "Spirit Spore Soup." Any brothers can provide it? Buying at 300 sacrificial power per piece, willing to pay for providing a harvestable location.]
"See, ungrateful child, utterly foolish!" The golden comment scrolled past.
Jiang Luo: ...
He didn’t expect that his dad was right; the thing’s value was indeed very high.
Selling it to Spirit Chef Players could earn at least 300 sacrificial power per piece, making 1200 sacrificial power minimum for 4 pieces.
But now they had already been decomposed into Plant Essence Balls, such a huge loss.
Thinking of this, Jiang Luo turned to Mahua, then shared the commission list information.
Upon seeing the screenshot info, Mahua suddenly lunged forward, both hands choking his neck:
"Gouluo, give me back my 1200 sacrificial power."
"Cough cough... I feel worse than you; this was a tenth of the Cultivation Battle Skill Fragment, and now it’s gone."
After a bout of scuffling, the two continued on their way.
With experience learned, their mindset changed.
They realized opportunities are everywhere, but the focus is on how to seize them.
With insufficient awareness, it’s easy to miss opportunities even when they’re right in front of you.
Now Jiang Luo had only one thought: when encountering an unknown special monster, look up information; it’s also a learning and growth process.
A 6-hour gaming experience passed unnoticed.
The Senluo Forest Region was still under the night’s curtain, and the night seemed especially long.
Having increased his Hunting level to 7, Jiang Luo and Mahua arrived at a small hill, looking into the distance.
On the vast plains, green vegetation stretched like waves to the horizon.
Leaves swayed in the breeze, with waves of gentle "rustling" whispers that were very soothing.
The air here was filled with countless luminous spores drifting with the wind, resembling a rain of colorful glowing dots when the wind direction was consistent.
The plant light sources on the grass, the spore light sources drifting in the air, and the starlight in the sky illuminated this plant world enshrouded by night.
In Jiang Luo’s eyes, this area’s environmental beauty was second only to the Colorful Mist Coast.
And in terms of colorfulness, it surpassed the Colorful Mist Coast by a margin.
"Da Luo, look at that!"
Mahua’s voice pulled Jiang Luo back from his immersion in the scenery, and he followed Mahua’s pointed direction with his gaze.
At the western horizon’s end, a gigantic mushroom, towering like a mountain, stood majestically against the sky.
