Chapter 1242 Good Treasure, Bad Effect

The Gnomes entered the portal after Grey and the other people had gotten into the place.

....

Inside the portal.

Grey appeared in a vast wilderness, there were large trees all over and a thick expanse of grass ahead of him.

He sensed the area and felt the strange energy that pervaded the place. This was the first time he was sensing such an energy. He stayed on the same spot for a while before taking a step forward.

The Old man followed behind him, staring at the place carefully. This wasn't the first time he was exploring a place like this, so he wasn't too fascinated by it. If Grey hadn't asked him, he wouldn't have followed him inside this place.

Void looked around with glowing eyes, he could feel the rich energy here. It might be different from that of the Aurora Continent or the Chaos Battlefield, it was easy to sense its richness. With such rich energy, it was easy for more natural treasures to form.

Everyone was aware of this fact.

'Head to the areas that have sparse energies.' He suggested to Grey.

Grey quickly understood what he meant. An area with sparse energy in a place like this only meant one thing, something had sucked all the energy dry from the place. When natural treasures form, they tend to absorb a large amount of energy to form. These energies are needed for the treasures to form.

They quickly set out, and before long, he sensed an area with lesser energy compared to the other places. Without wasting any time, he rushed there.

When he appeared, he was stunned by what he saw.

"Seelies?" He blurted out.

There were over ten Seelies within sight and they all consisted of different elements.

The moment the Seelies sensed him, they ran away, hiding in the bushes around.

Grey chuckled, he couldn't help but recall the time Alice got her Seelie. They might be fascinating creatures, but he wasn't interested in having one. Satisfying Void and the bunny leader was already hard enough, adding another to it would make things difficult for him. Not that he didn't want to increase his strength, but he would rather have an Elemental Warrior than a Seelie.

"Fairies!" The Old man exclaimed.

Grey took a casual look at him but then started to look around in search of potential treasures.

The Old man saw Grey's reaction towards the Seelies and was a bit astounded. Anyone from the Chaos Battlefield who saw a Seelie would freak out, and rightly so. These things were known for the extraordinary strength they give to an Elementalist, yet, Grey didn't seem to have any interest in it.

There was even a look of nonchalance on his face which showed that it wasn't the first time he was seeing it.

"My young friend, don't you know what these are?" He asked carefully.

"I know of them. But I'm not interested in having one." Grey replied.

The Old man stared at Grey, speechless. Grey was the first person he had encountered that didn't want to have a Seelie. These things would rile up an entire city filled with Elemental Venerables, yet Grey didn't want any. It was a shocking discovery.

"There's nothing good here. Let's head to the next place." Grey gave up when he couldn't find anything.

The Old man was thrown off his feet with Grey attitude towards the Seelies. If not for the fact that he knew Grey was stronger than him, he would've reprimanded him for being so clueless.

With no option, he followed behind Grey as they walked out of the place. He looked back with reluctance, but since he entered this place with Grey, then he would naturally have to follow his words.

The duo left that area and before long, appeared in another place. This time, this place had conscious plants.

The Old man was amazed at how Grey was able to keep locating these places that had top-tier items. If it were anyone else, they would've spent a lot of time to locate the Seelies, much less these plants, yet Grey did it within one hour.

"Is there any way you can contact him?" Grey asked after studying the plants. The plants didn't attack them, so he didn't bother with them.

"There's a nectar that tree stores in its body, will you leave without it?" The Old man pointed at a particular tree.

"Oh, what's the use of it?" Grey raised a brow and looked at the tree the Old man showed him.

The tree had a strange branch formation, and its leaves were not the normal shape, rather, they were triangle.

"The nectar juice can help in comprehension. It makes ones state of mind clear. Not just that, but it's a great supplement for your body and its taste is topnotch." The Old man explained.

"Oh." Grey's interest was piqued, and just when he was about to approach it, the Old man coughed lightly, adding another statement.

"It's a powerful aphrodisiac as well." He said softly.

Grey paused when he heard this, his eyes twitched slightly, unsure of what to do. He didn't mind having something like this that would help him, but the aphrodisiac part wasn't something he was expecting.

"I'll keep it for Klaus." He muttered.

He felt grateful the Old man told him about it, if not, he would've consumed it carelessly and might've had a serious issue.

The tree wasn't strong, only around the Overlord Plane.

"Don't attack it carelessly, they can destroy the nectar inside." The Old man told Grey of the nature of the trees.

"They are smart enough to know what others need for them." Grey commented.

"Is there a way to take it without harming them?" He asked.

"Yeah, but it's not always effective. Most people prefer killing them, but they are very resilient. This tree can take an attack from that little girl with you without dying from it." The Old man explained, "Of course, you're different. A single attack is enough to end it."
