Chapter 65: Chapter 65 Oh My God! Chapter 65: Chapter 65 Oh My God! *Bai Yi couldn’t tell if it was intentional or not.*
The goblin controlling the armor didn’t avoid the potato vines, which were clearly going to impede the armor’s movement.
His original route wouldn’t have taken him there, so Bai Yi was ready to seize the moment to detonate it.
Who would have thought the armor would actually change direction purposely and step right onto it?
*What kind of hatred or vendetta is this!*
Because of Bai Yi’s accelerated growth, the potato vine was much taller than usual, almost reaching the armor’s chest.
Even if it wasn’t a Potato Mine, just being an ordinary plant would still obstruct the armor’s operation, wouldn’t it?
But at least it saved Bai Yi the trouble of detonating it.
With one step on the potato vine, the heavy armor instantly detonated all the landmines below, and the flames from the explosion engulfed the armor.
Bai Yi didn’t even have time to check his panel; from taking damage to the entire death panel disappearing happened in just the blink of an eye.
Watching the parts fall from the sky, Bai Yi muttered softly,
“Why would you just step on it for no reason…
I was hoping to see if there was a way to salvage the armor, but now, nothing’s left…
Still, the damage from these mines is pretty decent: one plant can spawn five or six land mine beans, and with the chain reaction from the spreading potatoes, an average Second Tier creature could be blasted half to death.”
Indeed, the damage from a single landmine wasn’t very high, only 50 points.
But one potato plant usually carried at least five or six mines, and as this plant grew to its maximum, it would continue to spread new plants around.
Casuallly throw a potato down, and over time, it would create a minefield.
A large-area chain reaction kind.
Even if it didn’t kill, such a huge commotion would at least alert Bai Yi.
*It was simply the perfect defensive plant!*
Plant a circle around the territory, coupled with the Fungus Umbrella, and as long as nothing beyond expectations appeared, the territory’s safety should be essentially assured.
Yet, to be cautious, Bai Yi still tried a few more times to ensure there was no significant error in the triggering and power of the Potato Mines.
And as it turned out,
*those goblins truly hated these potatoes!*
The moment they finally rushed out of the respawn point, even if the potatoes weren’t on their paths, they would go out of their way to stomp on them.
It was as if a strong taunt had been placed on the goblins.
Moreover, there was no memory inheritance between each wave, making those goblins behave like that magical Granny Meng Soup.
“What’s this? Slash it.”
*Boom! The next wave.*
“What’s this? Slash it.”
*Boom! Again, another wave.*
In the end, after two more waves, Bai Yi’s mines were all used up this way.
The battle returned to the ruthless mowing down of needle erosion insects, easily harvesting the remaining goblins.
The final wave’s boss was a larger steam armor.
Though the mines were exhausted, under the poison liquid of the needle erosion insects, the armor’s power unit was half corroded and finally scrapped.
[You have completed today’s Cycle Challenge, with a current time of 7 minutes 16 seconds, surpassing 99% of Lords in the current region]
[You have gained 9200 points, and the Points Mall has been opened]
Bai Yi immediately opened the store; today’s monster clearing speed was fast, but still didn’t catch up with today’s limited purchase.
“There are actually people faster than me?
Everyone should have faced the same challenges today, right? Unless someone happened to specialize in mechanical special attacks?
Bai Yi thought of Jun Lin, who once claimed to have a big bomb.
Today’s armor and goblins, if met with a firepower strike, would indeed be a dimensional suppression.
With goblins just entering the industrial age weapon style…
*It was like using modern equipment to fight a war.*
In contrast, her needle erosion insects took too long to corrode the armor at the end, and in between, she had to wait for the Fungus Umbrella’s parasite.
Although Bai Yi didn’t regret it — after all, clearing through today’s seven waves,
the newly expanded Fungus Umbrella in the territory was far more desirable than that limited purchase in the store.
“Indeed, I need to unlock gunpowder and firearms technologies as soon as possible. Even if they’re not used often, the difference between having them and not having them is huge.”
Now that the potatoes had been modified, with the growth rate of these potatoes, it would only be necessary to plant a circle around the territory next.
By periodically digging up the potatoes that spread out, they could serve as high-quality materials for the Gunpowder Workshop.
Today’s store addition was a fixed Gold Directed Weapon Package.
Purchase required 4000 points, with a total of 10, but only one could be purchased per person.
*I had to say, Bai Yi felt that these limited edition Gold card packs seemed to be appearing more frequently, feeling as if she was being targeted.*
But the problem was that the bug hadn’t been fixed yet.
Instead, they used this method that seemed beneficial on the surface to actually limit you, causing you to lose out.
*But Bai Yi couldn’t directly question the game , engaging in such a self-destructive little truck behavior wasn’t something she would do.*
[You exchanged for Superpower Crystal (Second Tier/Blue) *1, Territory Expansion Scroll (Small) *1, Directed Weapon Package (Second Tier/Gold) *1, consuming a total of 10,000 points, 1200 points remaining]
The Directed Package allowed specification of a weapon category, and upon opening, it is guaranteed to be a weapon of the current category.
For instance, if Bai Yi specified a longsword, then the opened item would certainly be a First Rank Gold level longsword.
Currently, there was no shortage of melee weapons in the territory, but no Magic Series wands were available.
With Nong Si still present, Bai Yi chose a wand from the options and opened the weapon package.
[You used Directed Weapon Package (Second Tier/Gold) *1, and obtained Maga Standard Elemental Wand, Second Tier (Second Tier/Gold) *1]
[Maga Standard Wand, Second Tier (Second Tier/Gold): The standard wand issued by the Maga Empire Council to outstanding young mages, capable of storing 1000 Magic Power Value, +33% Elemental Damage, -10% Magic Power Consumption]
“Maga Empire? Where is this? Seems familiar…”
Bai Yi contemplated the panel’s prompt for a long time, finally finding the keyword in her memory.
“Seems like Karis’s original world? I remember it being mentioned in his notes before…”
That notebook had been casually thrown into a tree hole by Bai Yi and couldn’t be fetched immediately now.
Nonetheless, this was just Bai Yi’s own curiosity.
She shook off the thought and walked over to Nong Si, handing the wand to her.
When Nong Si saw Bai Yi take out the wand, her gaze never shifted away, knowing that it must be something her master had prepared for her, so she wasn’t eager.
But upon holding it in her hands, she became exceedingly excited.
Patting Nong Si’s shoulder as a gesture of encouragement, Bai Yi felt deeply thrilled.
[Your hero unit, Nong Si, has gained insight and is unlocking Space Element (86%/100%)]
After several days of research, Nong Si’s mastery of the Space Element was nearing completion!
*By tomorrow at the latest, the progress bar could be pushed to near full value!*
*This was Space Spell!*
Even if initially unable to use advanced spells like Space Transmission, at least abilities like Space Blade or Storage Space would become available!
Though there was already storage from the store, it was ultimately exploiting a bug, and it could be fixed at any moment.
*It was still wise to prepare a set of plans in advance.*
Especially with the harvested grain, if it spoiled from improper storage…
Maga Empire Council: Composed of all 9th Rank extremes within the Empire, representing the center of Imperial power, wielding the Empire’s most critical authority, even the Emperor is among them…
