Chapter 72 Ironwood



After reading the prompt in front of him, Chen Wangping felt happy.

All that iron ore was not wasted.

Diaobao finally recovered his previous skills.

The golden eagle flapped its wings and flew into the pepper tree. Using its wings and claws, it quickly removed the red pepper seeds and mature peppers along with the branches.

Soon, the golden eagle plucked all the peppercorns from the big red pepper tree.

Chen Wangping happily picked up a handful of pepper seeds and checked their properties.

This portion of red pepper seeds contains more than ten red pepper fruit particles, and only the black seed in the middle of the fruit has the system's brilliance.

【Red pepper seeds】

【Maturation time: 30 days】

【Result frequency: multiple times】

[Note: The smell of Sichuan pepper can repel insects]

Compared with peanut and sweet potato seeds, pepper seeds take much longer to mature, a full thirty days.

Fortunately, the amount of peppercorns we picked this time was large enough that we could wait for thirty days.

Moreover, like chili peppers, the main aroma of Sichuan peppercorns comes from the glands on its skin. Even if the seeds are removed, the remaining skin can be used in cooking.

Chen Wangping picked up another ordinary red peppercorn to check its properties.

A serving of red peppercorns contains more than ten red peppercorn fruit particles, but the seeds are not full enough and can only be used as food.

【Red Sichuan Peppercorns】

【Use: Food】

[Attributes: insecticide, cold-dispelling]

【Note: Numb and crisp~】

"Repel insects? Kill insects? I think the Sichuan pepper tree is quite effective. We can study it further."

Chen Wangping put it away with satisfaction and continued collecting.

Soon, Chen Wangping harvested 42 [Red Peppercorn Seeds] and 86 [Red Peppercorns].

It’ll last a long time.

Before leaving, Chen Wangping thought for a moment and asked Diaobao to pull down many tender leaves from the pepper tree.

The young leaves on the Sichuan pepper tree also have the aroma of Sichuan pepper. Although it is not as strong as the fruit, it can always add some flavor.

After the man and the eagle left, the pepper tree was left bare with only old leaves.

moment.

The golden eagle brought Chen Wangping to the vicinity of Tiemulin.

The ironwood trees here rise tall from the ground, at least thirty or forty meters tall at first glance, and are as thick as two people can hug together. The bark is covered with traces of time.

Chen Wangping saw many caterpillars on the nearby tree spitting white silk threads towards Tiemulin, trying to crawl over.

Looking along the silk thread, there were many traces of white silk threads on the ironwood branches that were wetted by the rain.

Obviously, the sound Chen Wangping heard on the radio was their conversation.

Chen Wangping had no intention of causing trouble for them. The most important thing now was to cut the ironwood.

Since the tip says that magnetite should be mined with a wooden pickaxe, a pickaxe made of ironwood must be more useful than ordinary wood.

He remembered what the two green caterpillars had said and shouted, "Diaobao, let's go take a look near the ironwood tree in the east."

The golden eagle carried Chen Wangping into the ironwood forest and approached the ironwood trees in the east.

At this moment, the caterpillars around who saw the golden eagle suddenly stiffened their bodies, and then climbed back to the tree where they originally lived at an extremely fast speed as if their lives were desperate.

Chen Wangping looked at Diaobao curiously. What had he done before? Why were these caterpillars so afraid of him?

After flying to the east of the ironwood forest, Chen Wangping could see that the ironwood tree at the easternmost end was obviously different.

It is taller than other iron trees, about sixty or seventy meters high, blocking out the sky and the sun!

However, there are many marks on the trunk, and it looks weathered.

Chen Wangping walked over, picked up the axe from the initial tool kit and tried to chop it.

"Bang!"

The axe hitting the bark was like hitting steel, making a crisp metallic collision sound.

Chen Wangping: “….”

Tiemu was found.

But I can't cut it.

But it doesn’t matter, just upgrade if it’s not enough!

Chen Wangping looked around, found a cave, walked in, took out the second-level manufacturing platform and put it down.

After connecting the line, Chen Wangping said, "Brother Diao, there is no wind in this cave, and I need to conserve my strength. Right now, I have to rely on you to generate electricity."

Golden Eagle: “????”

I don't know how to generate electricity.

Chen Wangping took out all the wind turbines and placed them in front of the golden eagle. "Brother Eagle, blow them. After we finish chopping the ironwood, we'll go back to the river to eat rabbits!"

“Beep!”

The golden eagle said that it was a deal, we would have something delicious to eat after we cut the ironwood!

"no problem!"

Chen Wangping looked at the golden eagle expectantly.

The golden eagle flew slightly off the ground, flapped its wings vigorously, and blew wind towards the wind turbine.

The blades of the wind turbine began to spin, and the power generation increased immediately.

Chen Wangping found the blueprint of the steel axe, took out the blue steel plate and put it on it, then clicked to forge it.

Three minutes later, the creation was complete.

When the golden eagle saw that the axe was finished, it immediately stopped flapping its wings and looked at the new axe curiously.

Chen Wangping first took a look at the golden eagle's satiety level. After fanning it for three minutes, its level dropped by ten points.

It seems that the Diao brand generator can only be used as an emergency measure.

After looking at the carved treasure, he took off the axe and examined it.

This new axe is about one and a half meters long. The handle and axe body are bright silver, and only the axe blade is bluish. It is not very heavy to lift. There is a faint sound of breaking through the air when it is swung, and it is obviously extremely sharp.

【Blue Steel Axe】

[Instructions: The Green Steel Axe can chop down trees in fewer strokes, and can even chop down large trees. After charging, it can deliver a powerful blow, triggering the special effect - Endless Life.]

[Special Effect - Endless Life: When charging and using the Green Steel Axe, there is a medium chance of discovering saplings among the trees]

【Note: Life, an endless cycle】

Chen Wangping: “!!!!”

There is a chance of discovering saplings in the endless cycle!

Wouldn’t that mean we can plant trees in the base?

If you cut down the fruit tree seedlings.

Won’t we have fruit to eat in the future?

There are also fruits for sale in Huoniu City, but the prices are very high and the quality is average.

Chen Wangping picked up the green steel axe and excitedly prepared to chop down the big iron tree.

But at this time, dark clouds in the sky floated over

"Clatter, clatter"

“Crack!”

The rain started to fall, and thunder followed one after another.

Sudden.

A thick bolt of lightning struck straight down from the clouds and instantly hit the ironwood tree that was sixty or seventy meters tall in the east!

And this is just the beginning.

Immediately afterwards, six or seven thick lightning bolts struck the big iron tree directly!

“Boom! Boom!”

The successive thunder and lightning hit the ironwood tree, causing it to be charred everywhere, with potholes and depressions in the middle, and the huge crown of the tree was also broken and knocked down!

"Squeaky"

The iron tree was broken in half by the heavy blow, and the huge upper half was caught up and shattered by lightning before it even hit the ground.

All this happened in just a dozen seconds, and the previously lush and green towering ironwood had turned into a black, half-dead tree.
