Chapter 745: Chapter 745: Enhanced Effects
Bai Youwei takes out her long-preserved incense.
Shen Mo lights the incense and places it in the incense burner.
A faint but fragrant scent spreads from the burner without visible smoke or sparks. Had Shen Mo not smelled the fragrance himself, he would not have been sure that he had indeed lit it.
Since unsure which “part of the prop” the incense would affect, Bai Youwei takes out all her game props.
The starting gun, improved flower seeds, friend invitation card, Snowflake, white conch, large pea, Firefly, Paper Bell, silver box, the Queen’s magic mirror, Cuckoo…
Also, four chunks of clay that have almost exhausted their uses, two of which were returned by Tan Xiao’s previous companion, Hu Dashan.
The scent from the incense burner is pleasantly mild. It neither overwhelms nor irritates the nose. Breathing in a bit more deeply almost seems as if it would disperse the scent.
Bai Youwei and Shen Mo hold their breath, concentrating at the side of the table, quietly waiting for a while.
Subsequently, they try touching the props placed around the incense burner.
“Strange, was the time not long enough?” Bai Youwei wondered, “Among these props, there are offensive, supportive, and healing ones. There should not be a single one that’s unresponsive.”
After some thought, Shen Mo said: “Perhaps a longer time is needed for the incense to take effect. We should rest for now. It’s already late, and you must be tired since coming out of the game.”
Bai Youwei looks hesitantly at the incense burner.
She’s indeed a little tired, but she also wishes to see the enhancement of the props firsthand.
They wait for another half an hour, but the props still do not respond.
Unable to bear it any longer, Bai Youwei expresses her frustration: “Why is there still no response? Did we do something wrong? Ah… This incense burner was exchanged with five props, if it’s useless, can we apply for a refund without reason?”
Shen Mo laughs, gently taps her head: “Go to sleep, whether it’s useful or not, we’ll handle it tomorrow morning.”
Bai Youwei sulks and is reluctantly coaxed into going to bed.
She fell asleep quickly.
Although there wasn’t much physical labor in the game, the perpetual tension was exhausting. Now, returning to Shen Mo’s side, she lowers all her guards, completely relaxing. Her speed of falling asleep was almost unbelievable.
She slept dreamlessly.
The next morning, Bai Youwei wakes up leisurely.
The first thought upon opening her eyes is to check the incense burner.
Shen Mo woke up before her and is currently observing the burner. Bai Youwei eagerly asks him: “How is it? Any changes?”
Shen Mo turns his head, beckons her: “Hmm, come see for yourself.”
Bai Youwei drapes a blanket over as she leans in, her fluffy self jostles against Shen Mo, “Hiss… It’s so cold.”
Shen Mo lifts his arm and enfolds her into his embrace, “It has gotten colder today. Luckily, the heater has been working well since we got electricity, otherwise, people in the city would suffer.”
Bai Youwei smells the fragrant scent.
It is the same as yesterday’s, even the intensity of the fragrance is similar, indicating that the incense is still working.
“Touch these chunks of clay.” Shen Mo says.
Bai Youwei places her hand on the clay and to her surprise, she finds that the number of uses for these almost used-up clays has increased! Out of the four chunks, three have increased in usage by one!
“Oh my God…” Bai Youwei is stunned. She fingers the clay pieces, then looks at Shen Mo with disbelief in her eyes.
The effects of using incense with the incense burner were ground-breaking!
“What about the other props?” she couldn’t help but ask.
“Most of them haven’t changed, but…” Shen Mo picks up a packet of flower seeds and an insect specimen, places them in Bai Youwei’s hands, “These two props have changed.”
Improved flower seeds, which could grow into a sea of flowers regardless of the season or environment within 24 hours after touching the ground.
Now, 24 hours has become 20 hours.
The Firefly, which could illuminate a space of 1000 cubic meters.
Now, it can illuminate a space of 1500 cubic meters.
Bai Youwei exclaims in surprise, then turns to Shen Mo:
“I… I feel like I suddenly got rich…”
