After observing for a long time, he still found nothing unusual, so Sherlock finally decided to test it first.
Walking out of the passage, carefully avoiding the blazing fire that filled the surroundings, he slowly walked towards the columnar object in the center.
This is obviously a burning flame, but it is gathering together like water at this time. It is also a spectacle. If the atmosphere is not a bit weird, he will definitely shoot a video and record it and put it on the Internet to sell it for money.
Apart from the fire stream, Sherlock did not encounter any other dangers. He approached the center step by step. Perhaps the ore-eating ant queen on the surface was the guardian monster. This possibility was not impossible.
When he finally reached the center, he realized that the object standing there was not a shining silver pillar, but a five-meter-high and two-meter-thick fiery red tree, rooted in the place where the fire flow converged.
, that flashing silver light is the result of the constant swaying of the flowers blooming on the tree.
At this moment, he couldn't bear it anymore and turned on the video to record this scene. He had never seen this magnificent scene before. Even if he didn't sell it, he could still send it to the teacher at the Fifth Ring Road to have a look.
After only admiring it for more than a minute, he put away his worries and began to think about the value of this thing.
It is impossible to move the whole tree. His third-level gathering technique is not so powerful, so he can only collect it separately. In that case, the tree will become fragmented materials, more or less.
pity.
"At any rate, I have witnessed your magic. At worst, I will go back and publish your images for free. Don't blame me!" Sherlock is more or less in awe of the treasures of nature, so he lets the selfish person let him go.
It's unlikely, but it's appropriate to show your regret.
And what he did next was truly rude.
With a quick running jump, he crossed over the fire pool formed by the converging fire streams, jumped onto the branch of the fire tree, hugged the trunk tightly, and used the gathering technique on the nearest silver flower.
System prompt: Collection failed
System prompt: Collection failed
System prompt: Acquisition failed, target damaged
Sherlock's collection technique has reached level three, but unexpectedly he still failed three times in a row. Although he still doesn't know what this silver flower is, it is not difficult to see its value from the difficulty of collecting it.
He moved his position and attacked another silver flower.
System prompt: Collection failed
System prompt: Collection failed
System prompt: Collection successful, get a silver flower
Fortunately, he finally succeeded on the third time, and there was an extra silver flower in his backpack.
Then Sherlock was immersed in the joy of collecting, which was all money.
The success rate of collecting silver flowers is about 20%, and there are only less than a hundred silver flowers on the entire fire tree, so in the end he only got 18 silver flowers after collecting them, and more than half of the others suffered miserably.
His humanity is destroyed.
Then there are the branches. The success rate of branches is much higher than that of Yinghua, almost 40%, but the number is not large. The huge trunk only branches out into seven or eight branches.
"Why is it getting hotter and hotter?" There was no change in the temperature when he was collecting silver flowers before, but now when it was the turn of the branches, he could clearly feel the surrounding temperature rising.
"Stuck!" Sherlock once again picked down a section of branches. This time, under his deliberate perception, he could clearly feel the sudden increase in temperature. "Isn't it related to my collection of this fire tree?"
Although his tone was suspicious, he already knew in his heart that there must be a certain connection between the two, because he found that the dense fire streams in the entire space had actually grown a lot stronger at this moment, and several of them were flowing together.
System prompt: The collection was successful and a fire tree branch was obtained.
System prompt: The player is in an abnormal environment - high temperature and is suffering from burning damage.
The abnormally high temperature around him finally exceeded the fire resistance limit of the Fire Monkey's flame body. A small burning damage caused his health to drop at a rate of 5 points per second.
Divine berries! Divine berries!... The superimposed effect of five sacred berries offsets the burning damage.
Knowing that the situation was not good, Sherlock did not choose to retreat, but instead accelerated the collection speed. He was already prepared to die.
System prompt: Collection failed
…
System prompt: Collection failed, fire tree branches damaged.
After picking the last branch, the burning damage on his body has reached 15 points per second. Even if he keeps drinking Xiaohong, his health points are still falling like a flood. In such a short time, there are only less than 200 points left.
Blood, if it weren't for the size bonus of the Fire Monkey, he would have gone to see the God of Creation long ago.
In the end, there was only a bare fire tree trunk left, and there were only three chances.
System prompt: Collection failed
System prompt: Collection failed
Two consecutive failures made Sherlock's heart a little heavy. Although Yinhua and Zhiya were also valuable, considering the size of the trunk, the overall value was definitely higher than the other two items, and not even a little bit higher.
Although I feel bad when the collection failed before, it is not the only thing after all, so it is still acceptable. However, this trunk is only one, and if it fails, it will be gone.
The five-second cooldown of the collection technique passed quickly. Looking at only 50 points of health left and the sea of fire around him, he knew that there was no extra time. He prayed to Silvanus in his heart and rubbed it.
He rubbed his hands and cast a collection technique and threw it away.
System prompt: The collection was successful and the fire tree trunk was obtained.
Great Lord of Nature, praise you for your generosity!
Boom! The fire tree disappeared completely, and the flames in the entire space finally lost control. Just like a meteorite hitting the sea, the flames burst out from the center like waves.
However, Sherlock did not have the opportunity to appreciate this beautiful scenery. The moment he succeeded in collecting, the fire pool below spurted out a huge pillar of fire and swallowed his body, taking away his last bit of health in an instant.
…
After saying goodbye to the God of Creation, Sherlock returned to the real world. The four hours of death time allowed him to take a good check on his physical condition.
"Eleven, link my game account and take a look at the items on my body."
"Okay, Axia, the account is connected. Here are all your items in the game."
Sherlock looked at the 18 silver flowers, 3 branches, and a huge tree trunk in the space ring on the light screen, and couldn't help laughing. It would definitely be worth paying for these things with first-level experience.
"Help me check again to see if there is any information about this plant."
"Okay, please wait a moment -" The huge game information was processed by No. 11 and the answer was instantly obtained: "So far, there is no record of this plant in the official information, and no player has published relevant information.
Information, do you need me to issue a consultation?”
"No need." Sherlock waved his hand and rejected No. 11's proposal. The current information fee was not cheap. He might as well ask the NPC in the game.
After counting the income, the next step was to deal with my own health, "No. 11, help me link to the database of the Third Hospital."
