Fang Hao held it in the palm of his hand, examining it carefully. The size of a one-dollar coin, made of metal, covered in dirt.
It seems to be a pendant, except its chain is gone.
From the side, he saw a small bulge which he pressed lightly. Click!
The lid of the pendant instantly flipped open, revealing an inner layer.
Inside were engraved the four letters, ‘Grigorya’.
[Silver pendant]
[Type: Necklace]
(Description: A common pendant almost worthless, yet it carries a father’s full longing. You can either sell it or return it to Grigorya.)
Fang Hao held the pendant, a thought coming to mind.
This looked like, a task.
A task of returning a lost item.
Based on his past gaming experience, returning the pendant might reward him with something special.
Whatever, this pendant was worthless anyway, and did not even have additional attributes.
It was useless to him. If he ran into this ‘Grigorya’ in the future, he would give the pendant back to her.
Thud!
The skeleton threw the body straight in and started covering it up.
Speaking of which, the Wood Element spirits wandering around were quite useful.
Otherwise, here, the body would have been nibbled down to nothing long ago and even this pendant might have ended up in someone’s belly.
Having done everything, Fang Hao, along with his cavalry, left once again.
After obtaining the Enlightening Potion, Fang Hao had no further interest in patrolling.
He made a round with the cavalry and then directly returned to his territory. After assigning a patrol mission to the cavalry, he immediately canceled the God’s Presence state.
He woke up from the bed, took a sip of water, and got up.
When he came out of the wooden house, he saw Eira airing the washed rug.
“Eira, go get Nelson.” Fang Hao said softly.
“Okay.” Eira replied and went towards the Viscera Museum.
She was truly terrified of Nelson, the undead hero.
However, she could not refute Fang Hao’s command.
So she tiptoed to the front of the Viscera Museum and called out softly,
“Scholar Nelson! The lord asks for you!”
Her voice echoed in the museum hall, making Eira unsure if Nelson heard her or not.
Just when she was about to call again, the sound of approaching footsteps rang
Hero Skeleton Nelson, leaning on his cane, hobbled out.
“Alright, where’s the lord?” Nelson asked softly, his empty eye sockets emitting a faint blue light.
“He’s in the lord’s hall.” Eira spoke with her head bowed, somewhat scared to look at Nelson.
“I see, tell the lord, I’ll be right there.”
“Alright.” After replying, Eira quickly walked away.
Fang Hao sat on the bench in front of the wooden house, looking at the
[Enlightening Potion] in his hand.
I wonder if it has an expiration date.
From the two times he got the world’s first, it’s apparent that Fang Hao is ahead of other lords.
However, in this world, that’s not enough.
Only by gradually stacking all the advantages can he survive better and more safely.
So, he was interested in the Enlightening Potion, which could greatly enhance his strength.
While he was pondering.
Eira and Nelson almost stepped in one after the other.
Lord, you called for me,” Nelson said softly.
Fang Hao didn’t bother with formalities and directly handed the potion to him
“Check if this can still be drunk? Is it expired?”
Nelson, as an immortal undead, had been around for a long time and naturally recognized this kind of potion.
He immediately recognized it as soon as he took it in his hand.
“My lord, this is a potion made by an alchemist, of course, it’s drinkable.”
Nelson handed back the potion.
No matter the potion, it only works on living creatures.
Even if an undead were to drink it, it would only clean the interior of their bones.
“Has it expired?” Fang Hao was still a bit uneasy.
“Expired? You mean, is the potion dirty?” Nelson didn’t quite understand the meaning of the word.
Although the mud on the potion bottle was wiped off, you could still see dark scratches on the glass.
“Er, I mean, is the potency still there? Will I get sick if I drink it?” Fang Hao pondered for a moment, then explained what he meant by “expired”.
“It will not, you can rest assured about that.” Nelson was confident.
Once Fang Hao received confirmation from Nelson, he no longer hesitated.
He uncorked the potion, took a sniff, then drank it all in one gulp.
The potion left a taste that reminded him of soap water, which was rather unpleasant.
Immediately after, a warm sensation spread from his stomach, enveloping his entire body in an instant.
Fang Hao realized something changed within him, but he couldn’t pinpoint exactly what.
[Your magic and spiritual power has increased, giving you a deeper
understanding of the elements.]
It was indeed a success.
Besides the initial warm sensation, there were no unusual occurrences.
When he took out the Skill Scroll again, a prompt immediately popped up.
[Would you like to learn the skill: Elemental Guardian?]
Learn!
The scroll transformed into a beam of light which charged into his body.
Having learnt a new skill, Fang Hao couldn’t wait to give it a try.
A surge of energy rose within him; in the next moment, two wooden elemental guardians appeared in front of him.
[Wood Element (Third Tier)]
[Type: Guardian Spirit]
[Race Traits: Wood Elemental Affinity, Spirit Body.]
[Skills: Entangle, Revive.]
[Innate Abilities: Intermediate Element Mastery, Basic Battle Mastery.]
(Wood Elemental Affinity]: Decreases damage from wood elemental magic by
50%, immune to negative wood magic, increases damage against antagonistic elements by 50%.
[Spirit Body]: A magical construct, immune to poison, mental, resurrection
and other living creature statuses, has a duration.
[Entangle]: Grows vines beneath enemies’ feet to restrict their movements.
[Revive]: Heals life. (Under revive status, the guardian spirit cannot move,
attack, or perform any other action.)
(Description: One of the most common guardians of summoners, you can trust
your guardians fully, they will never betray you.)
The wooden guardian spirits were tall and possessed humanoid bodies and appearances.
However, their bodies were made up of entwined trees, with green plant buds growing out of them.
Wow! Master, you’re amazing! Did you summon them?” Eira let out an exaggerated scream.
When faced with the wooden guardian spirits, Eira, who was normally faint-hearted, did not display her usual fear.
Instead, she screamed in surprise.
“Keep it down, keep it low-key,” Fang Hao hurriedly said.
Skills don’t oppress the body.
If he can learn one more skill, Fang Hao would be fairly satisfied.
Even though he had quite a few troops under his command.
“Oh,” Eira obediently shut her mouth.
Lift this,” Fang Hao pointed to a wooden bench in front of him.
One of the wooden guardian spirits stepped forward, and with its arm, grew
writhing vines that wrapped around and lifted the bench.
“Damn!”
“Wow!”
Fang Hao and Eira were both astonished.
The bench was not light and usually required the combined strength of four skeletons to lift.
Now that a single wooden guardian spirit had easily lifted it, the level of strength it displayed was rather surprising.
“Try lifting this,” Fang Hao pointed to another heavy object..
