A barely perceptible smile played at the corners of Allen's lips.
Earlier, when he was intimate with the swan maidens by the lake, he had noticed that the seven sisters all carried the scent of a special ingredient.
However, the scent was strongest because the sixth sister had just laid eggs.
The special ingredient wasn't on them, but it must be closely related to them!
Allen, having eaten griffin eggs before, had no difficulty guessing the secret.
As he pondered this, a sudden roar of a beast could be heard outside the Swan Cave!
The seven sisters hurriedly rose and ran towards the cave entrance.
Allen, Baker, and Hogg followed.
The cliffs at the Swan Cave's exit were blackened by flames and thick smoke!
A powerful monster, its jet-black wings spread, hovered in mid-air, roaring furiously at the cave entrance.
This monster, with a body like a mighty lion, possessed three heads.
In the center was a lion's head.
To the left was a horned goat's head.
To the right, a pale dragon's head!
The three heads took turns spitting.
The dragon's head spewed a cold current.
The goat's head spewed acid.
The lion's head in the center erupted in a blazing flame.
The protective barrier of Swan Cave, unable to withstand the ravages of the three breaths, nearly collapsed.
"Is that monster... a chimera?" Allen speculated.
"That's right! It's the one perched atop Shark Fin Peak!" the eldest swan sister replied gravely. "Don't be afraid, my three distinguished guests! With us here, that beast won't be able to get in. After a bit of a commotion, if it can't gain any advantage, it'll leave in disgrace."
As they spoke, the seven sisters began casting spells to repel the enemy.
The eldest and second sisters simultaneously cast a second-level "Wind Creation" spell, creating a powerful, howling gale that blew out of the cave.
The chimera's spew of flames, cold air, and acid were all blown back by the fierce wind, smearing its face and causing it to howl in dismay.
The third and fifth sisters teamed up to unleash "Flash Dust."
Intense flashes of light continuously erupted in the air, stinging the chimera's eyes.
While the monster had no time to attack, the other three swan girls simultaneously raised their delicate hands, gathering the free moisture in the air.
Balls of high-pressure water flew from their palms.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The "Hydraulic Orb" slammed into the Chimera, exploding violently!
The high-pressure droplets, like flying blades, cut countless tiny wounds into the monster's body.
Alan watched the seven sisters join forces to fend off the enemy.
A subtle glint flashed in his eyes.
The system detected a strong scent of a special ingredient from the Chimera...
The Chimera's strength was equivalent to that of an early-stage fourth-tier warlock.
Seeing that the seven sisters couldn't gain any advantage against the monster together, Baker couldn't help but join the fray, unleashing a "Slashing Air Wave."
Swish!
The energy pierced the air, like a scimitar slashing through the beast's claws.
The Chimera was cut by the wind blades and quickly retracted its claws in pain.
Seeing his friend's attack, Hogg also aimed at the lion's head in the center of the Chimera and blasted out a "lightning bolt."
With a crackling sound, the lion's head screamed in pain, its fur standing on end.
Since both Baker and Hogg had joined the fray, Allen didn't want to stand out.
With a wave of his hand, he unleashed two "finger waves," adding two more scars to the Chimera's body.
Under the combined attack of the crowd, the Chimera was quickly covered in wounds and, filled with resentment, turned and flew away.
Its angry roars echoed endlessly in the air.
The eldest of the seven sisters cast a spell to repair the barrier while explaining to Allen and the others why she had provoked the Chimera's harassment. "It's all our fault! The Chimera spotted us when we opened the secret realm, and since then, it's been causing trouble."
"We sisters are working together, so we're not afraid of it. However, completely destroying that monster won't be easy."
Alan nodded and asked, "Sister, I need to go to the bathroom. Where can I go?"
"There's a restroom just across the hall."
Alan thanked him and winked at Baker and Hogg.
The two understood and said they needed to urinate too.
The three brothers, temporarily free from the swan woman's surveillance, gathered in the restroom and whispered about their escape.
Alan pretended to be hypnotized and came to the Swan Cave with the sole purpose of collecting special ingredients.
Having already eaten the swan eggs, there was no need to stay here and be exploited by the seven sisters.
"Two brothers, I have a way to get you out of here, but you have to help me with something."
Alan stated his conditions frankly.
"I'm very interested in that chimera. After we escape, you two will help me hunt it. I also need your help hunting moonflowers and vipervines."
Baker and Hogg had already planned to hunt moonflowers and vipervines to collect ingredients for their potions.
Killing one more chimera didn't matter to them, so they agreed immediately.
After discussing, the three returned to the hall.
From a distance, they could hear the swan maidens laughing and playing in the water.
The seven sisters had already taken off their feathered robes and were soaking in the bathtub.
Seeing the three return, they smiled coquettishly and invited them to bathe together and have some fun.
Alan walked over to the bathtub and pretended to test the water. A bony spur quietly popped out from his palm, releasing a toxin into the pool.
He didn't want to kill the seven sisters, so he chose a Level 4 paralysis toxin, derived from the bloody claws of the "clown" at the Amazing Circus. It wasn't lethal.
The seven sisters, frolicking in the pool, were unknowingly poisoned, their bodies paralyzed and limp in the water.
Alan directed Baker and Hogg to carry the seven sisters out of the pool one by one and lay them flat on the poolside carpet.
The sight of their bodies lying in state was quite erotic, but Alan didn't spare a second glance.
He pulled the injection and reagent bottles from his storage bag, expertly administering the injections and drawing blood.
The blood drawn from the seven sisters was divided equally into three bottles.
Alan kept one for himself, and gave the remaining two to Baker and Hogg.
Now that they had the swan girl's plasma, they couldn't stay here for long.
Alan walked to the entrance of Swan Cave and summoned a griffin with a feather charm.
The griffin could still fly with one person, but with Baker and Hogg, it couldn't fly.
Alan had anticipated this problem and, before setting off, had enchanted the griffin with "Giant" and "Berserk."
After the double magic combined, the griffin doubled in size, increasing its physical attributes by an additional four points.
Despite feeling that this wasn't enough, Baker also cast a spell, enchanting the griffin with a second-level "Brute Strength."
This increased the griffin's physical strength by another four points, making it easy to carry three people.
Alan and his two brothers sat on the griffin's broad back.
Next stop, the three of them would be Shark Fin Peak, the highest peak on Silvermoon Island.
…
Shark Fin Peak.
Located in the central part of Silvermoon Island, the main peak of the mountains resembles a shark's dorsal fin, hence its name.
The Chimera's lair lies atop Shark Fin Peak!
Alan's next goal is to join forces with his two senior brothers and hunt the Chimera.
To obtain special ingredients from this monster.
Unexpectedly, by the time the three of them reached the summit, someone had already gotten there first!
Even before the griffin landed, Alan heard the sounds of fierce fighting emanating from the summit.
Finding a secluded spot to land, the three quietly approached the battle zone and observed from the shadows.
The combatants were none other than the Chimera that had returned defeated at Swan Cave.
The combatant was a blue-robed giant, riding the wind!
He resembled a slender, handsome ogre.
His skin was slightly bluish, his fangs gleamed coldly, and his eyes held a murderous intent.
His hair was dishevelled, and he exuded an extraordinary aura! Beck's expression changed as he gazed at the blue-skinned giant hovering in the air.
"Dungeon Wizard Akuma! Why is this devil even here?"
Hearing the name, Allen's heart stirred.
Akuma, the backer of the orc warlord Akira, ruled over a dungeon in the Underdark.
This dungeon lord was a high-level ogre, also known as the "Ogre Wizard." No wonder he looked somewhat like an ogre.
In fact, the Ogre Wizard completely crushed the Ogre in every way.
Especially in intelligence and spellcasting talent, the gap was so great that it even surpassed that between humans and monkeys.
Alan and the other two hid in the shadows and watched the battle.
They planned to wait until Akuma and the Chimera were both defeated before striking and taking advantage.
However, they soon discovered that this was pure delusion.
The chimera's eyes widened in anger, its lion-like head spewing fire.
Akuma sneered and raised his right hand, the red ring on his middle finger glowing faintly.
The monster's fiery flames were instantly suppressed by the magic ring.
The chimera remained unconvinced, and its white dragon's skull spewed a cold current.
Akuma cast a spell, summoning a fierce wind to dispel the chill.
The chimera's goat-like head was about to spew acid.
The dungeon lord was no longer impatient to play house with it.
In a flash, he vanished into thin air.
The next second, he teleported directly onto the monster's back.
The chimera, enraged, shook its body wildly, trying to throw Akuma off its back.
Bang!
The Dungeon Lord raised his mighty hand and slapped the chimera's three heads where they met!
The monster's three heads screamed in agony, blood gushing out!
"Lion dog, won't you obey me?!"
Akuma's eyes gleamed with a magical radiance that captivated the soul.
The chimera resisted with all its might, but the disparity in mental strength between the two was too great. Within seconds, its defenses collapsed.
With a wail, it fell to its knees, forced to submit to the Dungeon Lord.
Hiss...
Behind the boulder, Baker and Hogg simultaneously gasped!
Dungeon Lord Akuma, truly a fifth-level powerhouse!
The three of them had no chance of taking advantage.
"Junior brother, if the three of us launch a surprise attack on Akuma, what are our chances of success?"
Hogg lowered his voice and asked Allen.
"At most... fifty-fifty," Allen mused.
Fifty-fifty chance, and that doesn't even include the Chimera Akuma has subdued!
Baker and Hogg exchanged glances, neither daring to speak.
Thankfully, Akuma didn't notice the three people watching from afar and continued to use his "Trick of the Tongue" to communicate with the Chimera.
"Lion Dog, why are you injured?"
The Chimera howled in pain, unintentionally revealing the secret of the Swan Cave.
"A secret space realm, a demon woman who can only transform into a swan..."
Akuma stroked his chin and muttered to himself.
His eyes flickered, a hint of lust in his eyes.
...
"Oh no! That demon's probably heading for Swan Cave!" Hogg whispered anxiously from behind the boulder.
"Brother Allen, how long will the effects of the poison you inflicted on the Swan Girl last?" Baker asked gravely. "Will the Swan Sisters have enough time to recover before the Akuma arrives?"
"It will take at least an hour for the poison to completely dissipate." Allen shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"If that happens, and the Akuma takes advantage, then the Swan Sisters will..." Hogg hesitated. "Or, should we return quickly? Protect them from the demon's ravages!"
"That's what I thought!" Baker nodded heavily.
"Brothers... you seem to have forgotten that you were kidnapped by the Seven Sisters not long ago, and you barely managed to escape." Allen frowned slightly.
"Junior Brother, putting aside personal grudges, the Seven Sisters aren't exactly bad characters!" Baker said sternly. "The Akuma's ulterior motives might be unfounded, but since we witnessed them, how can we just stand by and watch!"
"That's right!" Hogg echoed Baker's sentiments. "Junior Brother Allen, we just slept with the Swan Girl and took advantage of her. We have some feelings for her. It's unacceptable to stand by and watch her die without helping her!"
Alan sighed.
"My two brothers, you are both virtuous and upright. I admire you."
"Since you insist on returning to Swan Cave to rescue them, I have no objection. I only have a small objection that I must address."
"What do you mean, Junior Brother..."
"I have no objection to your cherishing of old friendships, but there's really no need to feel you're being taken advantage of."
"A man and a woman are in a fleeting relationship, seeking pleasure and gaining what they need. No one owes the other anything."
"If you think of this as a transaction, then I'd consider myself deeply disadvantaged!"
Hogg and Baker, thinking Allen was joking, ignored him and urged him to summon the griffins.
...
Akuma, riding a Chimera, flew towards Swan Cave.
Soon, he arrived at the cliffs.
Observing them for a moment, a sneer played on his lips.
He waved his hand, casting a spell, releasing a shimmering green curtain of light.
The protective barrier cast on the cliff face was instantly dispelled.
The entrance to the Swan Cave was exposed.
Akuma slapped Chimera on the back and urged, "Go in and take a look!"
Chimera, already eager for revenge, dove into the Swan Cave, folded its wings, and landed in the center of the cavern hall.
Akuma leaped from the monster's back and tossed his head with a graceful flick of his head, his long blue hair flowing behind him.
He adjusted his robe sleeves, put his hands behind his back, and walked forward.
Reaching the edge of the bathtub, he was stunned.
He had originally intended to use magic to seduce the swan maidens and include them in his harem.
As he approached, he saw, for some unknown reason, that all seven swan maidens were naked, slumped side by side on the carpet.
The seven sisters, sensing someone approaching, felt their chests heave violently, their eyes filled with fear.
Akuma observed them and confirmed that all seven sisters had been poisoned, their bodies limp.
Though he didn't know who had poisoned them, the results seemed to have saved him a lot of trouble.
"Ahhh!"
The chimeras' three mouths, salivating with greed, roared as they lunged at the swan girl.
"Get out of here!"
Akuma swatted the chimeras away with a palm strike, angrily scolding, "With such beauty before you, you only want to bite them to death and eat their flesh, you fool!"
The monsters huddled in a corner, their faces bewildered, growling in grievance.
Wouldn't it be a waste to leave such delicate little girls uneaten?
Akuma didn't bother to deal with the fool. He gazed at the seven sisters sprawled out in all their glory, grinning lasciviously as he untied his belt.
Which one should he attack first?
A strange air current suddenly arose from behind him!
Akuma's expression changed slightly, and he quickly turned around.
Two young men, one tall and one fat, stood at the cave entrance.
Beside them, a nimble black panther followed.
"Where did you come from, little rat? You're courting death!"
Akuma's face was icy cold as he waved his hand and cast a spell.
A string of magic missiles whistled towards the green-browed man and the round-faced fat man.
As for the black panther, Akuma took no notice.
With a gesture, he ordered the Chimaera to finish it off, making up for not getting to eat the swan meat.
Swish!
Alan rolled on the ground, dodging the Chimaera's attack, wagging his tail and letting out a rhythmic roar.
Wild spell—Poison Cloud!
A turbid cloud suddenly appeared out of thin air.
Chimera was enveloped in a poisonous cloud and instantly became paralyzed!
Alan transformed back into human form and raced against time to detoxify the seven sisters.
The seven naked women who had regained consciousness
He helped them up.
In just half a minute, Baker and Hogg could no longer hold on.
The brothers were knocked to the ground by Akuma's 5-ring "Ice Cone." A thick layer of frost coated their bodies, their hands and feet frozen stiff.
Akuma stood with his hands behind his back, a look of disdain on his face.
"With your limited abilities, you dare to provoke me? You're truly tired of living!"
Before he could finish his words, a powerful surge of magical energy suddenly erupted behind them.
The revitalized Swan Sisters were now casting spells together.
"Hydraulic Sphere," "Glitter Dust," "Entanglement," "Deep Sleep"... all sorts of magic, all blasting at Akuma!
"Haha..."
The Dungeon Lord chuckled, not bothering to turn back.
The sisters' spells struck his back, but were blocked by a faint film of light, rendering them ineffective!
Seeing this, the seven sisters were stunned!
The ogre wizard Akuma possessed a third-level "Anti-Magic Barrier." Most magic or magical techniques below that level were ineffective against him!
The swan girl's magic proficiency was no higher than level 3, so of course, it couldn't penetrate the Dungeon Lord's Anti-Magic Barrier.
Akuma stood with his hands behind his back, his back to the crowd, and said calmly:
"A beautiful woman can only realize her value by relying on a strong man."
"You seven sisters, kill those three dogs and you still have a chance of survival."
"If you don't appreciate it, hehe... huh?!"
The Dungeon Lord's menacing sneer was suddenly interrupted by the moonlight!
Alan hid behind the seven sisters and silently fired a "Shaping Moon Shadow Bullet."
By the time Akuma realized something was wrong, it was too late to turn around.
The bright moonlight, like a sharp blade, tore through the anti-magic barrier and slashed at his back!
Ogre wizards also belong to the "shapeshifting subspecies," capable of transforming into giants or humanoids up to six meters tall at will.
Therefore, the double damage effect of the "Moon Shadow Bullet" also works on Akuma!
Puff!
Akuma stumbled forward, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
He reached for the wall, barely holding his trembling body.
"You!"
The Dungeon Lord suddenly turned around!
His furious gaze pierced the crowd and fixed on Allen's face!
"You despicable wretch, how dare you attack me—"
Crack!
Crack!
A series of crisp cracks of frost shattered behind him.
The Dungeon Lord's words were interrupted once again. Akuma couldn't pretend anymore and hurriedly turned back.
Baker and Hogg had already activated their third-level atavism, transforming into a powerful koala and thunder boar.
The two behemoths shattered the ice, their eyes red as they launched a fierce attack on Akuma!
Crack!
The thunder boar's tusks discharged electricity!
Akuma, relying on his magic barrier, didn't bother to dodge. The arc struck his chest, instantly obliterating him.
Even on the other side, atavism Baker infused his palms with magic power, empowering the Silver Moon Style's third-level martial art, "Steel Rake"!
Simultaneously, he used "Wild Casting" to cast the third-level spell "Plant Growth" on his giant palms.
The koala's paws were woven from countless vines.
After the enchantment, the vines began to grow wildly!
Steel Rake + Plant Growth
Baker's move was similar to Angel's "Flame Slash Wave" and Hogg's "Thundering Earthquake Wave."
It was his own fusion martial art—the Ten Thousand Trees Grabbing Palm!
Swish!
The koala's fingers transformed into thick vines, like ten giant green pythons, twisting and swooping down on Akuma!
In a flash, it caught Akuma off guard and pulled him back!
Tightly bound from head to toe, he tossed him around with a thud!
Finally, he swung his fist into the ground with a fierce swing!
Bang!
A large, human-shaped crater appeared on the cave floor, with Akuma embedded deep within.
The Dungeon Lord was pelted by the furious koala, though the damage was minor, the insult was immense.
"Damn it..."
Akuma struggled to his feet and climbed out of the pit.
A thunderous roar suddenly erupted from behind him!
Returning to his ancestral form, Hogg stomped his feet hard!
Amidst the roar, a "thunderous earthquake wave" spread out!
Akuma had barely risen when the shockwave blew him away again, slamming into the wall and bouncing back to the ground.
"Phew... I have to say, you guys are quite capable!"
The Dungeon Lord, his head bruised and bloodied, slowly rose to his feet, holding onto the wall.
Despite being brutally beaten by Allen, Baker, and Hogg, he didn't appear seriously injured.
What shocked everyone even more was...
Even the few minor injuries on his body were healing at a visible speed.
The Seven Swan Sisters, Baker, and Hogg stared blankly at the invincible Akuma, a chill running through their hair from their feet!
Footsteps shattered the stagnant atmosphere in the cave.
Alan passed through the Seven Swan Sisters and stepped forward.
A soft ball of light, like a silver heart, pulsed in his palm.
Moon Shadow Bullet, ready to fire!
Akuma stared at Alan, his eyes flickering.
Of the ten, only Alan's Moon Shadow Bullet could truly threaten him.
But... so what?!
Swish!
Akuma's figure vanished from the spot, instantly closing in on Alan!
His five fingers pressed together like blades, forming a crystal-clear ice shell.
A chilling chill permeated his palm.
This was a fifth-tier ice-based martial art derived from the "Ice Cone"—Ice Soul Palm!
The Ice Soul Palm, trailing a chilling light, pierced straight into the chest!
Allen stood still, his upper body twisting strangely into a C-shape, narrowly avoiding the piercing blow.
Akuma was stunned!
His body instantly twisted drastically, his bones and muscles softening like dough. Was this a move a human could pull off?!
Akuma had to admit, he was still too young.
In his entire life, he had never seen anything so bizarre as this!
Bang!
The moonlight suddenly appeared!
While using his "Soft Bone and Flesh Armor" to evade the Ice Soul Palm, Allen fiercely crushed the "Moon Shadow Bullet" in his hand!
Swallowed by the moonlight, an expression of unconcealable pain crossed Akuma's face.
Even as powerful as he was, enduring two consecutive "Moon Shadow Bullet" attacks was beginning to strain his body.
Bang!
The Dungeon Lord's massive form suddenly exploded, transforming into a humanoid cloud of steam that drifted away from the moonlight's radiation zone.
In a flash, Akuma had already fled the cave.
Hearing curses still echoed through the cavern.
"You little bastard! Just wait! Sooner or later... I'll make sure you die!"
Alan watched Akuma drift away in the wind, his face expressionless and his heart heavy.
He had nearly exhausted all his cards, but still failed to stop Akuma.
"Soft Bone Flesh Armor" was just a surprising tactic.
Next time he encountered Akuma, the same tactics wouldn't work.
What else could he do?
Pray that he wouldn't seek revenge after his injuries healed?
Alan shook his head gently.
He never entrusted his fate to others.
In this world, the strong prey on the weak, bloody and cruel, the only way to protect oneself is to become stronger as quickly as possible.
There's no other way to survive!
…
The Chimera, having inhaled the poisonous gas, finally broke free of its paralysis.
Looking up, its master was gone.
Across from it stood the Seven Swan Sisters and three men.
Ten pairs of eyes, all gazing at it with ill intent.
Cold sweat streamed down the foreheads of the Chimera's three heads.
The next second, an overwhelming wave of magic engulfed it...
Swish!
Alan fired a final "Finger Wave" blast, slaying the Chimera in a pool of blood.
Activating his Atavistic Form, he stepped forward, stomping on the monster's corpse.
Infused with the "Steel Rake" in both hands, he grasped the joint between the three heads and pulled with all his might!
With a swish, the belly was ripped open!
Alan reached into the monster's steaming chest, felt for a mass of internal organs, and pulled it out.
It was a mass of flesh attached to a lung, shaped like a large garlic bulb, with a bulge in the middle divided into three equal cloves, brimming with magical energy of three different properties.
All creatures naturally adept at breath attacks, including dragons, possess similar organs, collectively known as "basal vessels."
Alan bit down, and hot, pungent blood splattered everywhere.
Drip—
"Consumed special ingredient: Chimera's basal vessels!"
"Potential +3!"
"Physique +1!"
Alan licked the remaining blood from his fingers and smiled with satisfaction.
He then opened the system page to check his stats.
Constitution 30, Agility 25, Spirit 36
Potential Reserve: 4 points
…
Three days later.
Alan, Baker, and Hogg bid farewell to the Seven Swan Sisters and left Swan Cave.
Just as they had arrived, the Seven Sisters transformed into swans and escorted the three back to the lakeside, saying a reluctant farewell.
They exchanged "secret seals" and pledged to keep in touch and help if needed.
…
A few days later.
Flower Demon Valley.
Three young men in silver moon robes stood around a giant flower.
The flower stood eight meters tall and as thick as a pillar.
The jade-colored petals were as big as a mat.
The leaves were curled, their edges covered with sharp teeth.
It looked like countless large animal traps hanging from the flower!
This strange plant is the legendary "Moonflower."
…
Alan, Baker, and Hogg arrived at Flower Demon Valley yesterday.
As they entered the valley, they were stopped by a checkpoint set up by the monastery.
The three presented a token of their identity and passed through without incident.
The next question was how to find their hunting targets.
Flower Demon Valley winds for hundreds of miles from south to north, crisscrossed by dense forests and numerous forked paths.
Finding the Moonflower and Viper Vine in such a vast mountainous area is no easy task.
The map provided by the Silver Moon Monastery was of little use.
Moonflowers and Viper Vine are not ordinary plants rooted in the earth and motionless.
Both supernatural plants can pull their roots out of the soil and roam freely like wild beasts, hunting wherever they go, without a fixed habitat.
Fortunately, we had Brother Baker on our team.
The koala bloodline possesses an extremely high affinity for nature, and each level-up awakens plant-related magic.
Baker awakened the third-level "Plant Talk," allowing him to communicate telepathically with roadside flowers and trees, gathering intelligence.
Using this technique, it took him only two days to find a moonflower.
The moonflower is naturally schizophrenic, with a twisted mind.
Even by plant standards, it's a complete lunatic!
Baker didn't dare use magic to communicate with it, fearing he'd be infected and become a lunatic himself!
During the siege of the moonflower, Alan and the other two never transformed into beasts, nor did they revert to their original form.
It wasn't that they didn't want to, but that they didn't dare.
The moonflower is hermaphroditic, and both the pistil and stamen radiate a supernatural aura.
The pistil emits "Silver Moonlight," similar in effect to the 2nd-level spell "Lunar Light."
Anyone struck by the silver light will suffer light damage and be forcibly released from their "beast" and "transformation" states.
Even more terrifying is the stamen, which emits "Red Moonlight." Any creature struck by it will go mad, ignoring all kin!
Beastmen and sorcerers with awakened beastly bloodlines are particularly fearful of "Red Moonlight."
Once their defenses are breached, they will not only go mad but also become controlled by the Moonflower, becoming its loyal servant.
A frenzied individual can only regain their sanity by staying away from the Red Moonlight's radiation zone.
Baker and Hogg fear the Red Moonlight and dare not approach within 30 meters of the Moonflower.
Alan is not afraid.
Red Moonlight is, at most, equivalent to a 3rd-level mental spell.
Alan's fourth-level soul-soothing meditation technique was perfectly suited to resisting the insanity induced by the red moon's radiance.
As for the silver moon's light, its lethality wasn't particularly strong.
Alan activated his "Soft Bone Flesh Armor," and the silver moon's light couldn't break his magical defenses, nor could the moonflower's serrated leaves.
Two words—natural nemesis!
Throughout the battle, Alan's only task was to hold onto the moonflower and prevent it from burrowing underground to escape!
With Alan's abnormal physique, suppressing the moonflower was easy.
As for dealing damage, Baker and Hogg could handle it.
Especially Baker, who reversed his "Plant Growth" technique, transforming it into "Plant Withering," specifically targeting all kinds of flowers and plants!
With one blast, the moonflower was instantly reduced to a withered mess.
After successfully defeating the moonflower, the pollen collected was divided equally among the three, as agreed. Alan also collected one male and one female stamen.
He stuffed them directly into his mouth like he was chewing sugarcane, and began to chew with a crunching sound.
During this journey, Alan had been eating everything he saw, his mouth never idle!
Baker and Hogg were already used to it.
They followed Alan's lead and tasted the stamens.
It tasted slightly sweet, with a sour aftertaste, not particularly delicious.
Seeing Alan devouring it so rapturously, they couldn't understand why.
Alan smiled, but hesitated to say directly that both the male and female stamens of the moonflower were considered special ingredients.
After tasting it, it gave him 2 potential points, plus 2 points of spirit attribute!
Current attributes: Constitution 30, Agility 25, Spirit 38
Potential reserve: 6 points
