Chapter 24 p3
The [Two-Sided Mirror] was originally a 100-square-meter space, which she had divided into five parts for planting different things. However, after a trip to Cold Moon Island, it now looked messy, with all kinds of materials.
Without a good plan, her OCD couldn’t stand it.
Yu Chi entered the [Two-Sided Mirror] and found that it really wasn’t an illusion. The space was much larger than before.
She walked around the boundary and found that the area was about 6 times larger than before, which meant that the Two-Sided Mirror was now a full 600 square meters!
But why did these changes occur?
Yu Chi blinked. The only change was that there were a few more spirit plants with grades. Could it be?
Although the [Two-Sided Mirror] was a Legendary grade item, it was shown as damaged when she first got it. Could it be that these spirit plants could slowly repair the [Two-Sided Mirror]…
If so, that was really something to look forward to.
This was only the first island she had been to. She would go to a second island, a third island… she couldn’t imagine how many more good things she could get, and how much larger her [Two-Sided Mirror] space could become!
Yu Chi’s face flushed with excitement.
The prestige of a Legendary grade item.
Currently, the items in the [Two-Sided Mirror] were: 119 Beautiful Mushrooms, 237 Moonlight Grass plants, 89 Frostflame Flowers, 8 Ice Crystal Fruits, 23 various Frost Crystals, six Ice Crystal Grape vines, a small Red Star Tree forest (future version), plus three cubic meters of special wood dried by the Cinnabar Finch’s flames, some plantain, some perilla, some mint, some aloe vera…
She divided the [Two-Sided Mirror] space into four parts: one 300-square-meter area and three 100-square-meter areas.
The largest space was used for planting the plants she had obtained from Cold Moon Island. She roughly divided it into 5 areas for planting Moonlight Grass, a Frostflame Flower field, Beautiful Mushrooms, and a Red Star Tree forest—Red Star Trees could increase the growth speed of other plants by 20%, so she planted them at the junction of the areas.
In the last area, she planted the branches of the Ice Crystal Fruit. The Ice Crystal Fruit was a seedless fruit, so now she could only hope that the branches could successfully grow into a large tree.
…She didn’t dare to go to Cold Moon Island again now.
The 300 square meters were divided into 5 areas, neat and tidy, which was pleasing to the eye.
It was just that after these plants were planted, the surrounding air became much colder. Yu Chi shivered and quickly walked to another area.
Of the remaining three areas, one was used for planting fruits and herbs, one for planting rice and vegetables, and the last one was for raising the small animals she had obtained from Cold Moon Island.
—Her future food reserve, hee hee.
The demand for crops like rice should be high in the future. If there was enough space, Yu Chi even wanted to continue expanding the area.
And the fruit area now had watermelons, apples, durians, and immortal peaches. This was the good thing about the [Two-Sided Mirror] space. She didn’t have to care about the type of fruit or the season. She just had to plant them, and they would grow on their own with an elven blessing.
The vegetable area currently only had rice and potatoes. Yu Chi suddenly remembered something, opened her player shop to take a look, and found that there was indeed another surprise.
Beets!
She happily took the beet seeds from her player shop. Having beets meant she could produce sugar. This was the crop with the second-highest sugar yield after sugarcane.
The rice and potatoes didn’t fill up the vegetable area, so she planted the beet seeds next to them, then began to transform into her elf form to bestow blessings.
Her current blessing range was 10 square meters, which meant she needed to bestow it 50 times… uh.
Yu Chi: ? Interesting.
For a better future!
Yu Chi quickly compromised and first bestowed an elven blessing on the spirit plants she had picked from Cold Moon Island and the land there. After using it 12 times in a row, before her head exploded, she picked a Frostflame Flower, tore off a petal, and stuffed it into her mouth.
…Actually, her first thought when she saw the Frostflame Flower was to make tea, but wasn’t this an emergency? Yu Chi thought to herself as she chewed on the petal, feeling her Spirit recovering.
A Frostflame Flower could increase Spirit recovery speed by 20%. Each flower had five petals, and each petal’s effect lasted for 10 minutes.
Yu Chi temporarily left the [Two-Sided Mirror] space. After sitting on the fishing platform for a while, she found that the All-Purpose Fishing Rod was moving.
A mediocre level two resource chest.
Huh, I’m actually using the word “mediocre” to describe a level 2 resource chest now?
What an arrogant person. Yu Chi commented on herself in her mind.
But it couldn’t be helped. That’s how people who have seen the world are.
There was nothing to do for now, and it would take some time for her Spirit to recover. Yu Chi finally slowly opened her private message interface. Actually, she had a kind of avoidance mentality.
Just thinking about it, she knew that the number of people private messaging her must have exploded, which made her not even want to open her private messages.
But she had to look. After all, she had found her few relatively fixed top player customers through private messages. Although she didn’t really want to cooperate with people, she couldn’t completely close herself off.
【Hello, top player. Can I ask how you got to Cold Moon Island?】
No, you can’t. Next.
【Hahaha, I’m a little nervous messaging a top player for the first time… I want to ask what materials the top player got on Cold Moon Island.】
Heh, a truly nervous person like me would never private message a top player and ask such a shameless question!
【Top player is so amazing! You’re already number one on the wealth ranking. I’m so excited!! Our Dazed Cult will definitely surpass the Grass Jelly Cult!!!】
What the heck? For a moment, Yu Chi suspected that she had misread it. But after reading it over and over again, she found that she really didn’t understand this world anymore.
I have followers? That’s great, that’s great. But why is it called the Dazed Cult and not the Fish Cult?
Yu Chi was troubled. She began to wonder if choosing the name [DazedFish] was a mistake… but it couldn’t be helped. That’s how people of deep and lasting affection are—it’s not because she couldn’t come up with other names.
The other Grass Jelly Cult must be the number one on the strength ranking. But this person was really low-profile. So far, Yu Chi had never seen her speak in the channel or on the forum.
Yu Chi straightened her body, suddenly feeling a strange sense of collective honor. As the leader of the Dazed Cult, she had to lead her followers to defeat the leader of the Grass Jelly Cult. Charge!
Wait, was proselytizing legal or illegal?
【Hello, can I ask about the island? I’ll pay.】
Pay?
Yu Chi knew what many people were thinking. In any case, it didn’t hurt to ask. What if the other party was an idiot and revealed the real information?
Of course, there were also many people who put the transaction on the table. But now she was a big shot. She didn’t care about those small things.
But now…
She looked at the name of the person who had sent this message—[MortalRealmLittleFairyGrass].
Yu Chi narrowed her eyes dangerously. So it’s you, the leader of the Grass Jelly Cult with the most followers.
She sneered, her expression arrogant as she typed: 【Of course, what’s the reward?】
Wait, was that a little too fawning?
Unfortunately, the private chat channel didn’t have a recall function. Yu Chi had to close the interface, out of sight, out of mind.
[GrumpyBro], [SurfingTheSea], and [ZhangSanAskedMeOut] had all sent her messages respectively. But they were all sent before she had asked them if they had any thicker clothes.
At that time, only [ZhangSanAskedMeOut] had replied to her quickly. The other two had replied after she had uploaded the request.
[GrumpyBro]’s chat interface was as follows:
【GrumpyBro】: You’re this [Thumbs up], so awesome [Praise][Praise]
【DazedFish】: Do you have any thicker clothes? I can trade for them with bandages and adhesive bandages at a 20% discount.
【GrumpyBro】: No, I don’t have any clothes to wear either.
Yu Chi found the word “either” particularly jarring and sent back a heavy sentence: 【Sorry, I have clothes to wear.】
Only savages don’t have clothes to wear (no offense to savages)!
[SurfingTheSea]’s chat interface was as follows:
【SurfingTheSea】: Holy crap, is that really you? Boss Dazed!
【SurfingTheSea】: Sis~ take care of me in the future.
【DazedFish】: Do you have any thicker…
【SurfingTheSea】: Sorry, sorry, I was busy before. But do you still need it now?
Yu Chi replied that she didn’t need it, then looked at the “~” after “sis” and nodded in relief.
See, I’m not that fawning after all.
[ZhangSanAskedMeOut]’s previous words were also praise, but her emotions seemed to be more excited than the other two, almost reaching the level of worship.
Yu Chi was pleased with the praise again.
These three were all quite tactful. Even someone with extremely low emotional intelligence like [GrumpyBro] didn’t try to probe what she had encountered on the island or what materials she had obtained.
(No offense to GrumpyBro.)
…
Just as she had almost recovered, Yu Chi went to the [Two-Sided Mirror] space and bestowed 12 more elven blessings, then began to chew on Frostflame Flower petals.
…She had forgotten again. She really had to make a cup of flower tea before coming in next time.
Actually, the petals weren’t bad to eat. Not only were they not astringent, but they also had a clear sweetness. But Yu Chi always felt a little strange when she ate them. Maybe her cultivation was not up to par.
After returning to the boat, Yu Chi opened her player shop and restocked the adhesive bandages and bandages. Many people noticed that she was back and started to private message her again.
This time, she was really too lazy to open them.
Yu Chi remembered something. As the number one on the wealth ranking, she had not only received a level five resource chest, but also a Turntable Spin.
These two things had been prompted once in the early morning, but she was busy exploring the forest at the time and naturally ignored them. After she came back, she had forgotten about it for a while.
How could I forget about the lottery? Am I getting too full of myself?
Yu Chi had only used the Turntable Spin once before, when she got [Lucky Match-3].
The things in this pool were probably very good. The system was only generous the first time she completed the novice quest. After that, she hadn’t even seen a shadow of it.
Yu Chi opened the level five resource chest first. She had just gotten good things from a resource chest, so she was naturally even more expectant now.
However, the saying “extremes meet” probably described her. After opening the chest with a face full of anticipation, she only got an excellent-grade automatic air conditioner.
【Item: Automatic Air Conditioner
Grade: Excellent
Description: Whether it’s severe cold or scorching heat, it can keep your small boat at a constant temperature! Automatic air conditioner, a trustworthy good air conditioner!】
Actually, looking at the description, it was quite useful, especially in hot and cold weather, if it hadn’t come from the same level five resource chest.
Yu Chi: (Gritting her teeth)
Yu Chi had already discovered the crappy nature of level five resource chests. Other resource chests would give some materials or fruit seeds when an excellent-grade item appeared, but level five resource chests only had items. You got what you got. Even if you were unlucky and got a common-grade item, it wouldn’t come with anything else.
Speaking of which, could there really be common-grade items in a level five resource chest?
Yu Chi’s scalp tingled. She couldn’t imagine how desperate a little girl she would become if she got a common-grade item from a level five resource chest.
Her body shivered, and she quickly stopped her thoughts.
I can’t even think about it. Don’t take away my good luck.
There was still one Turntable Spin left, but thinking of her bad luck just now, Yu Chi was a little hesitant.
It feels like my luck for today has reached its limit. Should I draw tomorrow?
Yu Chi didn’t lack items now, so she wasn’t in a hurry for the lottery. After a little thought, she decided to save it for now.
The All-Purpose Fishing Rod moved again. Yu Chi pulled it up and saw two cups of grass jelly milk tea.
Hmm…
The system’s notification sound happened to ring. Yu Chi opened her private message interface and saw that [MortalRealmLittleFairyGrass] had just replied to her message.
Yu Chi: “.”
A coincidence, right? It should be (averts gaze).
