Chapter 762 - 367: Forest System
[Tip: Place the Demon Egg in a suitable nursery environment to enter the taming process. Different Demons have different incubation times. After the Demon is born, provide materials to the nursery and it will generate the most suitable growth resources for them.]Li Ang looked at the so-called "nursery environment" reflected as separate panels for each area on the interface.
The world beneath his feet expanded to a certain extent and then stopped changing. The nursery interface displayed clear regions like the [Forest Area], [Aquatic Area], [Wilderness Area], [Cloud Mist Area], and [Volcanic Area].
Each area had a slot for nurturing Demons, and to add more slots, these areas needed to be expanded, which would require adding some materials. However, this time the materials were not as abstract as building a nursery, but rather regular magic materials.
Once the panel was open, all Li Ang had to do was pick up a Demon Egg, and the system listed the corresponding materials needed for nurturing the Demon. For instance, for the Salamander Egg, the system suggested rare fire attribute materials such as Slow Burning Fire Stone and Life Lava, which could create environments and food that fire salamanders preferred when placed in the nursery.
But Li Ang was a bit puzzled. The value of these materials alone might exceed the value gained from hunting a Salamander. Could the benefits of nurturing a Salamander this way outweigh the materials used?
This point was not easy to prove with the Salamander because he did not have such good fire attribute materials at hand.
He turned his attention to the other Demon Eggs he had.
Along his journey, based on his adventures, he’d collected different Demon Eggs. The Sea Dragon Egg was the most suitable, but due to the accident on Mengze Island, it eventually led to Livi’s birth. Excluding the Salamander, only the Whiteflower Wasp and Fairy Dragon remained.
These two were heavyweights, innately filled with a desire for slaughter, making them good candidates for testing the system’s monster taming functionality.
Li Ang pondered for a moment and ultimately chose the Fairy Dragon, not for any other reason than group acceptance. Although he thought the chitinous shell of the Whiteflower Wasp was quite stylish, all the young girls, aside from Andasu, expressed their concerns about him taming the Whiteflower Wasp.
As soon as Li Ang picked up the Fairy Dragon Egg, he received a system prompt.
[Selected Object: Fairy Dragon Egg. Suitable Nurturing Environments: Forest Area, Aquatic Area, Cloud Mist Area. Suggested Choice: Forest Area.]
Li Ang headed toward the forest, and Farina, who was deep in thought, followed him.
The nursery’s forest wasn’t vast, but the lowest level plants in the jungle had already grown between the tree trunks. Various sizes of leaves covered the land, and some trees had mysteriously collapsed and decayed, sprouting large patches of mushrooms, with some Clear Springs emerging from the ground.
"If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes and you told me this was the cabin of the Eternal Summer, I wouldn’t believe it. It just feels like you’ve teleported me to the Giant Garden," Farina said.
The Giant Garden is an island that specializes in nurturing Demons. The rulers of the island are the Campbell Clan, the family from which Dorothy hails.
It has a wild environment difficult to develop and was once a poor place, but the current lord obtained a Secret Technique for nurturing Demons in his youth, turning the island into a privileged breeding ground for monsters.
Farina used to go there a lot to find suitable food for her Dragons, which is why she said this.
"I didn’t expect it either."
Li Ang could only attribute it to the Ancient Secret Technique.
Following the system’s guidance, he found the "nurturing slot" in the forest.
It was an environment surrounded by Clear Springs, flowers, vines, fruits, and mushrooms. The bird songs in the forest were not background noise, but rather creatures of unknown origin, perhaps created similarly to the magical monsters from the Magical Disaster.
In this space combining various forest elements, there was a large herbaceous plant. Its leaves and soft yellow petals were wide and soft, like a soft mattress covered with dew, overlapping one another, seemingly able to hide small animals.
Just looking at it, he felt it was very suitable for the Fairy Dragon to grow on.
Li Ang took out a Fairy Dragon Egg, resembling iridescent jelly, and placed it on the yellow plant.
After selecting to confirm taming on the system interface, the yellow flower bed shook slightly, birthing a stream of natural magic that connected with the entire forest. As the magic pulsed, the whole forest seemed to "breathe" in unison, with the water mist, gentle breeze, and swaying plants falling into the same rhythm.
When the entire forest’s rhythm synchronized, natural magic suddenly infused the Fairy Dragon Egg, integrating it as a part of this environment.
And this entire environment existed because of Li Ang.
He couldn’t explain the principles behind it, but he could feel the whole space was linked to him, especially the Fairy Dragon Egg.
Now, he stood in a special position, at the apex of a systematic structure, with the capability to control various veins of this system with just a single hand, not to mention the Fairy Dragon within it.
The mere sense of this control made him feel that he’d reached a level beyond the normal individuals of Nebis.
Li Ang was certain he could control the Fairy Dragon born from the nursery, but instead of immediately feeling happy, he found himself momentarily speechless.
It was as if explained by the Dunning-Kruger Effect curve. When he stepped into the Excellence Realm, catching a glimpse of the blurry phantom of the world’s truth, he instead developed a greater reverence for the world itself.
