I Build a Floating City in the Apocalypse – Chapter 93

Chapter 93

“Bai Qing, help me demarcate a new area, remember to make it bigger. I want to plant trees, plant grass, and also raise cattle.”

When Bai Qing saw the two-meter-tall Fire Bull and the small willow tree burning on its back, he was slightly dumbfounded.

“What’s going on?”

“???”

“Village Chief, this…”

“It’s just as you see. This bull is a Magical Beast, this tree is an Elemental Magic Plant, and there’s a patch of grass behind it.”

Fang Bai said with a smile. He was in a very good mood today, having gained such a big harvest from his trip.

“Magical Beast, Elemental Magic Plant…”

Bai Qing muttered the term “Elemental Magic Plant,” which he was encountering for the first time. Fang Bai usually didn’t go out, but unexpectedly, he brought back such a big surprise upon his return. He didn’t know about Elemental Magic Plant for now, but he knew very well what a Magical Beast was!

Bai Qing immediately nodded and said,

“Okay, I’ve specifically reserved a large area within the walls, near the wall, for future planning. I originally intended to keep it for future expansion. If you need it, Village Chief, you can use it to settle the Magical Beast and the Elemental Magic Plant now. I’ll immediately enclose this area with a wall.”

“Good, that’s fine. Take me there now.”

“Okay.”

Bai Qing led the way, and Fang Bai followed with the Fire Bull. Under the surprised gazes of many onlookers, they arrived at an area near the wall by the river. This area was roughly the size of a football field, and Fang Bai nodded in satisfaction after a glance.

“Village Chief, this is it. It’s right next to the city wall, and we can open a separate gate for easy access. Then, it’s next to the Field Operations Team’s training ground. If anything happens here, the Field Operations Team personnel on duty can arrive within a minute. Plus, it’s relatively far from the residential area, which can avoid some unnecessary accidents.”

“Mm, good.”

Bai Qing had considered things thoroughly. Fang Bai looked at this area and was quite appreciative. Bai Qing continued,

“Also, the Fire Elemental Scrolls you put in the shop before have all been sold out. A total of four Water Elemental Scrolls have been sold, for a total of twenty-six liters of Elemental Materials.”

“Are all the Fireball Scrolls sold out? It seems they’ve already tried their power.”

A smile appeared on Fang Bai’s face. The more Fireball Scrolls sold, the better, the happier Fang Bai would be.

Because this didn’t just mean that Fang Bai could obtain Elemental Materials to create more Spell Scrolls, it also meant that other factions and survivors could use Fireball to hunt Magical Beasts, and then use Elemental Materials to buy Spell Scrolls from Fang Bai.

This would lead to more Spell Scrolls being used to hunt and even capture Magical Beasts, creating a positive feedback loop.

And this meant that Fang Bai would obtain more and more Elemental Materials, more and more Spell Models, and more and more Spell Scrolls.

This meant that Fang Bai only needed to stay at home to obtain a large amount of research resources and become stronger continuously. Naturally, Fang Bai was happy.

“Do you have any Fire Elemental Materials?”

“Yes.”

“Good, bring them to me.”

After Fang Bai finished speaking, he immediately locked onto a corner area. After thinking for a moment, he led the Fire Bull to the corner area and unloaded the willow tree. He left other locations for transplanting Elemental Magic Plants that he might find in the future. The willow tree would be placed in the corner for now.

After having someone dig a large pit in the center of this area, Fang Bai directly grabbed the willow tree’s trunk, which was only as thick as three fingers, and planted it. Then, he had someone build a shed next to the willow tree, while Fang Bai himself used his Mental Power to monitor the willow tree’s condition.

The willow tree was an Elemental Magic Plant, meaning it contained Elemental Power. No matter what, its vitality should be very strong, and a simple transplant shouldn’t cause it to die.

Therefore, Fang Bai understood that whether the willow tree could survive depended on whether it could adapt to the elemental environment!

Fang Bai’s Mental Power enveloped the willow tree. He found that the willow tree was absorbing Fire Elemental Power just like before, without any abnormalities. Seeing this, Fang Bai finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This Elemental Magic Plant willow tree was still growing vigorously after being transplanted to a new location.

At this time, Bai Qing walked over with a bag of Elemental Materials. Fang Bai glanced at it. The amount of Elemental Materials was about four or five liters, all Fire Elemental Materials. Fang Bai immediately took out one of the furs.

“Will you eat this? There are also some bones and shells. If you eat them, I’ll crush them and mix them into your fodder.”

Fang Bai placed the fur, bones, and shells in front of the Fire Bull.

“Moo.”

“You don’t eat them?”

“Moo.”

“You don’t eat them like this?”

“Oh, oh, I understand. You want them crushed and mixed into the fodder, right? Okay, no problem.”

At this time, Fang Bai hesitated for a moment, then continued,

“But I don’t have enough fodder. Can you directly eat it after it’s ground into powder?”

“Moo.”

“No? Then what should we do?”

The Fire Bull didn’t know what to do either. This was also its first time encountering such a situation. Seeing this, Fang Bai said,

“How about this? Since you’re already here, and you have a batch of Fire Elemental Magic Plants yourself, I’ll help you plant them, expanding the planting area. Then, we’ll use those Magic Plants as fodder and mix them with this powder, okay?”

“Moo.”

Fang Bai smiled.

“You really are a smart Fire Bull. You’re amazing!”

Fang Bai praised. Then, he directly led the Fire Bull to the side of the shed and continued,

“Look, that will be your shed from now on. You’ll live inside, sheltered from the wind and rain. And it’s right next to the willow tree, in the area with the highest concentration of Fire Elemental Power.”

“But you must guard the willow tree here. Remember, only I can approach the willow tree. If anyone else approaches, remember to call me, remember to block them, and don’t let anyone touch the willow tree.”

“Moo!”

The Fire Bull agreed. Fang Bai then made another trip and transplanted the entire patch of Magic Plant grass back.

After thoroughly checking the area to make sure there were no other Magic Plants or treasures, Fang Bai returned to the area where the Fire Bull was.

To facilitate research and management of these Magical Beasts and Magic Plants, Fang Bai directly asked Bai Qing to move his container house to this area.

Inside the house, Fang Bai continued to perceive the Spell Model in the Fire Bull’s body and analyze the effects of the Spell Model based on the Fire Bull’s actions, movements, and reactions.

So far, Fang Bai had obtained the complete Fire Bull Spell Model and had analyzed some of its structures.

Fang Bai discovered that the effect of the Spell Model on the Fire Bull was also Fireball, the same as the Fireball that Fang Bai initially mastered. There were also quite a few similar structures in the Spell Model, with only a small part being different. This surprised Fang Bai a little.

Because these two Spell Models were similar yet different, Fang Bai could conduct in-depth analysis of them. By comparing them, he could analyze the function of each Spell Structure, each Spell Node, and even each Elemental Channel. This was of unprecedented significance to Fang Bai.

It was like a brick for Fang Bai to enter the field of Spell Models. Stepping on this brick, Fang Bai could stand on tiptoe and get a glimpse of the mysteries within the field of Spell Models.

During this process, as time passed, under the influence of the willow tree, the concentration of Fire Elemental Power in this area gradually increased.

In his spare time, Fang Bai also separated eight plants from the grass that was transforming into Magic Plants. After recording information such as the leaves, length, height, and elemental concentration of each plant, Fang Bai divided them into two groups and planted them near and far from the willow tree, respectively.

The closer to the willow tree, the higher the concentration of Fire Elemental Power, and vice versa. Within these two groups, they were further divided into subgroups, using ordinary fertilizer and Fire Elemental Material powder for cultivation, respectively, to form two control groups.

Fang Bai wasn’t lying to the Fire Bull. He really intended to cultivate and plant them properly.

After all, this was the only type of plant that Fang Bai had obtained so far that was transforming into a Magic Plant.

Although he hadn’t yet discovered the specific use of this Magic Plant, he would cultivate it first. Even if this Magic Plant could only be used to feed cattle, as fodder, it would still be considered as accumulating valuable Magic Plant cultivation experience for Fang Bai. He wouldn’t be caught off guard when he encountered truly useful Magic Plants in the future.

In addition to this, the willow tree was also Fang Bai’s focus.

This was the first Elemental Magic Plant that Fang Bai had encountered, and his curiosity about this Magic Plant was also considerable.

Attracting Elemental Power and increasing Elemental Power concentration!

These were the two uses that had been discovered on the surface. Were there any other undiscovered uses?

Moreover, since Magical Beasts had Spell Models and Crystal Cores inside their bodies, would Magic Plants and Elemental Magic Plants also have similar structures?

Fang Bai was very curious and concerned about this.

However, just as Fang Bai was about to delve deeper into his research, he suddenly noticed Wang Kai and Wang Xiong running over.

“Village Chief, Village Chief, we found him!”
