Chapter 103: Crafting Honey Pills
Hua Mi opened the blood-sucking bee box and found something unexpected falling out of it.
"Whoa, what's this?"
Fixing his gaze, Hua Mi noticed an irregular crystal, merely two or three inches long. The crystal, overall, had a faint bluish hue with faint streaks of red inside, resembling strands of blood.
He probed it with his spiritual power but gleaned no useful information. At least it didn't harbor the unstable magical energy like the Thunderfire Beads did.
As a flower spirit born from the Gifted Flower, Hua Mi lacked any perception abilities regarding the by-products related to the Thunder Blossom.
But there was the universal identification skill among the pseudo-flower spirits.
After some identification and discussion, they unanimously agreed that this item was harmless to humans. It was as stable as the ore produced in Heishi Town, devoid of radioactivity, and wouldn't cause any magical effects on the human body upon mere contact.
However, similar to the blood honey, it harbored some unfathomable magical elements inside. Hence, not recommended for consumption.
"..." Hua Mi pondered. "Not recommended for consumption? Who would even try eating this thing? It doesn't look edible; you'd risk breaking your teeth."
Without the pseudo-flower spirits' reminder and given its origin from the blood honey box, Hua Mi wouldn't dare put this thing in his mouth.
Examining the crystal in his hand, he sensed its smooth surface and hard texture, resembling more of a materialprecisely a mineral.
Perhaps it held some special function? He needed a way to identify its properties to fully utilize it.
Yet, as a by-product of the blood-sucking bee honey, just like the honey itself, it didn't exist in this world. Most people here wouldn't be able to identify it.
He wondered if there was a super identification skill that could provide detailed information about the item, akin to an interface in a game. That would be much more convenient.
"Speaking of minerals and materials, the blacksmiths should be familiar," he mused.
Thinking of the blacksmiths, Hua Mi immediately recalled the room akin to a lava cave, where the towering figure of War Hammer tirelessly hammered materials.
Setting aside anything else, in terms of forging, few rivaled War Hammer's expertise, especially as the forger of the Demonslaying Sword.
Conveniently, he could head there.
As the Guardian of the Brass City, highly respected by War Hammer, it was easy for him to seek their identification. When he had time, he'd ask Alyss to open a portal, and off to the Brass City he'd go!
However, he wasn't sure if Alyss had any materials left to create the portal. If not, he might need to provide them himself. Masters didn't supply materials.L1tLagoon witnessed the first publication of this chapter on Ñøv€l--B1n.
After contemplating his subsequent plans, Hua Mi relaxed. Storing the unknown material in his storage ring, he resumed bottling the honey.
This time, he harvested a total of 527 bottles of Thunder Blossom honey and 16 bottles of blood honey. With the honey collection done, it was already evening.
It was harvest day, and Hua Mi was in high spirits, albeit a bit tired. After consuming a bit of Thunder Blossom honey and recharging at the power outlet, he felt rejuvenated, the fatigue evaporating instantly.
Full of energy, he finally implemented an idea he had long considered.
He controlled the bees to secrete beeswax, enveloping the honey and forming honey pillseach containing about a spoonful of honey.
This method primarily catered to the Thunder Blossom and Gifted Flower honey, often in use.
In such sensitive times, what more could this association stir up?
Carter contemplated and asked, "Any other hints? Even if it's a partial sound, try imitating it."
Col rubbed his head in frustration. "There were some incomplete sounds that I couldn't understand or remember. I've tried contacting him through our connection, but I can't reach him. It means he must be in danger."
"Regardless, I need to visit Mordu."
"Have you considered that he might already be"
"Even if he's dead, I need to find his body!" Col interrupted, then added hesitantly, scratching his head. "When I'm there, where should I start?"
Carter pondered for a moment, not answering his question directly but remarking, "So, this mission is about finding someone or gathering information, right?"
Col nodded. "That's right."
Carter shrugged. "That complicates things. Finding people and gathering information isn't your forte; it requires wit and adaptability."
"You're not wrong." Col wanted to retort but found himself agreeing, shrugging. "I'll try to be careful."
"Let me handle this. It's my forte."
"I can't ask you to do this. You might encounter danger"
"I'm usually good at avoiding it, quite the opposite of you," Carter smiled. Changing the subject, he continued, "But let me clarify something beforehand. I'll only look for living people. If he's alive, I'll find him and get him out of trouble. But if I receive intelligence that he's dead, I'll immediately end the mission without risking anything to retrieve his body. Agreed?"
After a few seconds of contemplation, Col nodded firmly.
"Thank you, Carter."
"Don't thank me too soon. If I'm doing this for you, I might need your help with something. We'll talk about it later."
Carter glanced towards Hillar, saying, "Let's keep this from her. I'll tell her I'm going to Mordu to meet an old friend, will be away for some time. Be cautious not to spill the beans."
Col had no objections. "Sure thing."
Carter glanced at the sky, his thoughts drifting.
"Mordu It's been a while."
