Gu Mian zoomed in on the picture and studied it carefully.
The map is very detailed, marking the locations of various rare resources and high-level mutated beasts within the dungeon.
Using the landmarks on the map, she quickly found her location.
This place not only has colorful tomatoes, but also gourd-shaped dates.
Although the gourd dates are in another place, the two places are not far apart.
Twenty minutes later, Gu Mian stared blankly at the steep mountain wall in front of her.
A plant, less than a meter tall, with lush foliage, grows diagonally on the mountainside.
Several mutated fourth-tier golden eagles circled around the tree. As soon as they saw Gu Mian, they cried out and rushed towards her like arrows.
Gu Mian quickly retreated, took out the Moon-Entwining Sword, and with a flourish, stabbed one of the golden eagles.
With a few "coo-coo" calls, several more golden eagles swooped down.
Amidst the flashing sword light, several menacing golden eagles plummeted from the sky like withered leaves.
After killing the golden eagle, Gu Mian stared silently at the plants on the mountain wall. After a long while, she broke down and opened the group chat to ask for help.
Gu Mian: "Are there any props that can make people fly?"
Xu Kun: "What's wrong, little sister? You want to fly to the sky?"
Gu Mian sent a screenshot of the plant to the group: "It should be a good thing, but we can't be completely sure. We need to go online and have it identified."
Xu Kun: "Holy crap... how did it grow up there?"
Xu Kun: "Send [Bamboo Dragonfly*1], use this to fly up and take a look."
[Bamboo Dragonfly: A disposable item that allows you to fly regardless of your weight when worn on your head (effective for 1 hour).]
[Talent used, obtain 2 Bamboo Dragonflies]
Gu Mian put the bamboo dragonfly on her head, and then her body began to float slowly upwards. She controlled her direction and flew to the plant.
[Gourd Date: A spiritual fruit; consumes +2 Strength, one is effective.]
This is it!
Gu Mian excitedly flew closer and gently pried open the plant to find the fruit.
Found it!
Gu Mian gently picked the green gourd-shaped fruit, casually put it in her mouth, and then continued to rummage through the plant.
After searching for a long time, and going through all the branches and leaves, I only found five gourd-shaped dates.
After searching again and still not finding the sixth one, Gu Mian prepared to fly back.
Just as I changed direction and was about to fly down, I inadvertently saw the plain on the other side of the mountain wall.
The plains were covered with fertile green grass, and a herd of low-ranking yellow cattle would occasionally lower their heads and happily nibble on a handful of grass.
Of course, the focus is not on the plains or the yellow cattle, but on the two groups of people facing off above.
The distance was too great to hear what the two groups were talking about, but judging from the box next to the fifth-tier rhinoceros in the distance, their target should be that.
Gu Mian controlled the bamboo dragonfly dog to sneak up behind the rhinoceros. Taking advantage of the fact that the two groups of people were not paying attention to this, she shot the rhinoceros dead with an arrow and opened the box.
It's a golden treasure chest!
[Received: Panacea *5]
[Talent used, gain 10 Panaceas]
[Pure potion: Eliminates all negative status effects upon consumption and prevents infection for three days.]
Once the supplies were in hand, Gu Mian immediately controlled the bamboo dragonfly to fly into the air and make her escape.
Ten minutes later, the two groups were getting increasingly angry and were about to fight when one of them glanced at the location of the treasure chest and let out a scream:
"Stop arguing! The box is gone!"
"What?!"
Everyone was startled and turned to look at the location of the treasure chest.
The place was completely empty; not only were the boxes gone, but even the fifth-tier rhinoceros that had been guarding it was nowhere to be seen.
A furious shout suddenly shattered the sky.
"Damn it! Which bastard stole my suitcase?! Don't let me catch you, or I'll skin you alive!"
...
On the other side, Gu Mian had already flown far away; otherwise, upon hearing this, she might have flown down to see who had the bigger fist.
Xu Kun: "So? Did you fly up and check it out? Is it anything good?"
As soon as Gu Mian landed and removed the bamboo dragonfly, she saw Xu Kun's three questions.
"I'll invite you all over later, and you can each have one of these [gourd dates]."
Xu Kun: "Oh dear! I can't accept this!"
Jiang Bai: "Indeed, I'll trade you my [Advanced Red Phosphorus Leather Armor Set]."
Gu Mian: "No need. Without your map, I wouldn't be able to find this thing easily either."
Without Xu Kun's bamboo dragonfly, I couldn't have flown up to pick it, so it's only right that I share it with you.
"Okay, okay, then I won't be polite." Xu Kun said happily, "I haven't found anything good yet, I just picked a bunch of bananas, I'll share them with you guys later."
"Okay." Gu Mian readily agreed. After climbing the mountain for so long, she was indeed a little hungry.
Xu Kun: "How about we gather now? I'm actually quite hungry."
Jiang Bai: "That works too. I have a bunch of meat skewers in my backpack. We can grill them later."
Gu Mian: "Then I'll invite you."
Half an hour later, they sat on the rocks by the roadside to rest and eat barbecue skewers.
"Old Bai, your skills are really good, you're almost as good as me!" Xu Kun quickly finished a skewer and gave Jiang Bai a thumbs up.
Jiang Bai glanced at him, ignoring his self-promotion and boasting.
After finishing a barbecue feast, there was still one hour left on the team card.
Gu Mian opened the image and continued to zoom in for further study: "There's a pack of Tier 5 gray wolves two kilometers to the east. Should we go check it out?"
Xu Kun: "Go for it! Maybe some good stuff will drop!"
Jiang Bai: "Okay."
The three hit it off immediately and headed to the location of the gray wolf pack.
Wolves are social animals.
From afar, Gu Mian saw a pack of gray wolves gathered together, frolicking and playing.
After discussing it, the group decided that Xu Kun would go down to lure the monster with his physical body, while Gu Mian and Jiang Bai would stay above and shoot it with bows and arrows.
Fifth-tier mutated beasts are relatively difficult to kill, especially when there's a group of them.
However, they were using high-level weapons, so it just took them a little longer.
After a lot of work, they got a high-level treasure chest containing wolf meat, wolf pelts, and countless wolf teeth, as well as three mid-level weapon maces. That was about it.
After spending so much time hunting monsters, all he got was this little bit of stuff. Xu Kun was both exhausted and angry: "My workout and this reward are completely disproportionate!"
Jiang Bai offered a perfunctory consolation: "Just consider it exercise."
Xu Kun: "...Then next time it's your turn to lure the monster."
Jiang Bai coldly refused: "No."
"Alright, stop joking." Gu Mian took out a gourd of dates and gave one to each person: "The team card time should be running out soon, right?"
Xu Kun took the gourd-shaped date, popped it into his mouth, and swallowed it after a few smacking sounds. "Right, the treasure chest that fell is for you, the rest is for me and Lao Bai, okay?"
Gu Mian: "OK".
In retrospect, she actually came out ahead by getting the high-level treasure chest.
Just as they finished distributing the items, the team card expired, and Xu Kun and Jiang Bai were instantly teleported away.
