The argument wasn't over yet, and Su Yuan decided to put aside the question of whether Queen Yuexi truly represented the moon for the time being.
Approaching the group, he cleared his throat and calmly said, "How about we use the water I brought?"
"you?"
Ye Tong looked at him and then at An Lian. It was hard to see her expression clearly under the night vision goggles, but her tone revealed her suspicion.
Anlian, standing to the side, was even more incredulous. She knew better how Su Yuan and his group had gotten here, and since they were supposed to be following someone, why would they be carrying supplies?
It's estimated that the water level is only enough to last for two or three days.
"No need to say anything more. Tomorrow I will take people to search the surrounding area again for the food and water that were sacrificed before but were not found. In a couple of days, we will go back up there to look for the water sac fungus."
"The Mother of the Dark Abyss is weakening day by day, and sooner or later she will not be able to hold on any longer. If you ask me, you should leave Star Rift Canyon!"
"......"
Water is a relatively scarce resource in Star Rift Canyon; it can only be obtained from some vegetation in the Fungus Forest area.
Aside from that, you can only find small puddles by chance after it has just rained.
The people of the Crystal Cluster area also risk passing through the wind gap to reach the canyon above. While trading supplies, they also bring back some water to their tribe, or rainwater collected after rain.
However, that water belonged to the people who sought the light.
"Uh...actually, I'm quite wet."
Su Yuan interrupted their conversation again. Water was the cheapest thing in the system shop. If the container didn't cost money, you could probably buy a whole barrel for a few dollars.
Before the others could speak, he immediately exchanged for a bucket of water. The wooden bucket reached almost to his waist, and it was so full that it was almost overflowing.
The system is great in this respect; it delivers exactly what it says, even if it's just a bucket of fresh water.
As the sound of water continued to pour near the tree roots, the arguing stopped abruptly. One bucket of water wasn't much for more than two hundred people, but as soon as the first bucket was poured, a second one was poured in.
Two barrels, three barrels, four barrels, five barrels...
Su Yuan was also somewhat shocked. Ordinary soil would probably have turned into mud long ago after so much water was poured on it, but the soil under his feet only became slightly damp.
Finally, after pouring out nearly a hundred buckets, the notes in the identification function changed.
【Dream Source Ancient Tree: Formed by the combination of the essence of the moon and the Sleeping Leaf Ancient Tree. After the moon disappeared, the essence of the moon merged into the ancient tree, giving birth to life forms called Wood Sleeping Spirits (currently in decline: weak, withered, and corrupted by darkness...)】
The dry state was gone, and the leaves began to tremble. Countless little sprites surrounded Su Yuan, and several mischievous little creatures jumped into the wooden bucket that had not yet been emptied of water.
The large wooden tub resembled their swimming pool, where several little elves swam happily.
"The Dark...Mother of the Dark Abyss has recovered..." Nightshade stared at the changes on the tree, murmuring in disbelief.
The hundreds of buckets of water that reached his waist were roughly equivalent to more than half a year's worth of water for the Dark Pity tribe, and he never expected them to be poured out like that.
"Where did you get so much water on you?" The men stared intently at Su Yuan, but their tone was no longer as serious and wary as before.
