I Live on the Land in Global Games

Chapter 427 - 427 411 9th Level Druid427: Chapter 411: 9th Level Druid 427: Chapter 411: 9th Level Druid After that day, Mu Ying temporarily set aside the affairs of the territory, only occasionally checking the camp and territory information submitted by players on the Territory Internal Network, making records.

She spent most of her day among various plants.

She moved around the plantation, the undersea planting camp, and the forest.

She spent the most time in the forest.

During her repeated rounds through the forest, she deepened her connection with the land and the vegetation above it.

Even though the Experience Value rewards for taking care of familiar plants had diminished, the sheer number of times she did it still amounted to a substantial total.

The Experience Value rose slowly yet steadily.

The defensive power of the Natural Bracelet’s Guardian Armor also grew stronger and more extensive.

The armor became so robust that she could walk sideways through the forest around her territory without any active protective measures, relying solely on the passive protection offered by the Guardian Armor constituted by natural power.

The magic beasts, wild beasts, and even monsters living there could not penetrate her defenses.

In the test house, her Defense Item’s value continued to rise as well.

Although there were numerical standards to measure against, because there were no players of equal strength for comparison, it was still unclear just how strong her top defense ability was.

She could only compare it to her own past performance.

This spurred Mu Ying’s determination to attract top players to her territory, knowing they would not resist testing the defenses in the test house.

Then, with more data for comparison, she could understand more clearly where she stood among the players.

The turtle shell grew thicker, and her sense of security increased with each day.

Her motivation for patrolling the forest was naturally robust, and she didn’t mind the lesser experience feedback from the ordinary plants because every bit of energy she spent on them fortified her own defense.

It wasn’t until half a month later, when the transformation moss finally matured.

The moment Mu Ying harvested the first seed, her slowly increasing Experience Value suddenly surged.

[You have cultivated a new type of plant “transformation moss”, which is stable in nature, high in cultivation requirements, and has decent medicinal value.

You gain 500 Professional Experience.]

[You have reached the Level 8 Experience limit, with 302 points of Professional Experience overflowing.]

[You have reached the upgrade standards.

Please prepare and upgrade quickly.]

Mu Ying looked at the overflow of more than half of her Professional Experience, her heart aching beyond measure.

If only she had known how valuable the transformation moss was, she would have slacked off during this period.

The overflow experience was even more than she had earned from her diligent trips to the forest from dawn to dusk.

Of course, that was just a thought.

If she had to do it over, she would do the same, as the hard work during this time yielded not only Experience but also a strengthened Guardian Armor.

[Profession: Druid Lv8 (3600/3600)▲]

The loss of three hundred points of experience made her view of the leveling up arrow far less joyful than before.

She sighed.

She couldn’t upgrade yet.

She had better stick to her task, harvesting the transformation moss and planting new ones.

If left for over 3 hours, not only would the medicinal effectiveness of the transformation moss diminish significantly, but the spores remaining on the plant would also lose their reproductive capabilities.

She had to hurry to harvest and preserve them using a special method.

The harvesting process was a delicate affair, one that could not involve magic but had to be done manually.

Only the Gem Fairies could offer a little help.

As Mu Ying painstakingly harvested the transformation moss, inside Qingshan City’s internal network and the World Forum, all hell broke loose.

On the internal network, because of the online payment functionality, the Lord upgrading betting pool that was traditionally held offline now had an online counterpart.

A post about it had been hanging in the top spot of hot posts since a week ago.

Mu Ying had only heard about it before, but this time, she joined in the excitement under the pseudonym Li Qingshan, betting one silver coin on herself.

At first, she thought, how could she not know when she would level up?

She had estimated it would be around the time the transformation moss matured.

After all, compared to the Gill Pouch Grass, the transformation moss was still a bit more precious, but due to its delicacy, based on the usual rewards, it was likely only worth between 150 and 200 Experience Points.

Making a compromise, she placed her bet on tomorrow.

Because her daily routine had been similar, and the speed of her Experience Value rise was relatively constant, under normal conditions, it would still take about ten days to half a month to level up.

There were few who bet on such an early date, and the odds were high.

Suddenly, Mu Ying’s Level Progress surged by 6%, directly reaching Level 8 at 100%, causing a wave of wails under the betting game post.

“Although I’m thrilled that the Lord has jumped another level, my wallet is crying!”

“I just want to know what exactly the Lord does every time his level surges by a few percentage points.

At Level 8, it was the Fishman Altar’s Experience.

Now that the altar is gone, what could it be?”

“I know the answer to this question: when a Druid cultivates a new type of plant, he receives quite a lot of Experience Value awards.”

“Are new plants that easy to cultivate?

Are you a botanist?”

“Comrades, someone on the World Forum is sour about our Lord again, saying he’s all level and no combat value.

Go argue with them!”

In a group chat named “Mu’s Fan Club,” the atmosphere heated up as well.

“Counter-attack team note: Don’t hard clash with those who’ve had too much vinegar, just use our Lord’s rankings on the Talent List to make your point!

We are all quality dad fans and mom fans!”

“Received!”

“Received!”

...

Mu Ying was completely unaware of this, as collecting transformation moss was not an easy task.

A slight tremble of the hand would ruin a piece, and even breathing had to be slowed down.

After collecting, she immediately went to the workshop to process these mosses and their spores.

Without processing them with Magic Power, they couldn’t be preserved for long, and several more hours passed after getting everything done.

Under the betting game post:

“Why has it been at 100% for so long, and the Lord still hasn’t leveled up?”

“I bet on ten days later, any slower and I won’t stand a chance at winning.”

“I bet on today!

Lord, look at me, level up quickly!”

“I bet on tomorrow, Lord, ignore her, just wait a bit.

I checked the almanac for tomorrow, and it’s extremely auspicious!”

...

Mu Ying certainly wouldn’t be busy until tomorrow.

Although she herself had bet that it would be tomorrow, it was just to join in the fun, and not worth delaying her level up for the sake of that little money.

After she had taken care of the transformation moss, she lay down beside the Gem Tree and chose to upgrade.

As she upgraded, the natural power around her also benefited the surrounding vegetation.

Having leveled up so many times before, she was quite skillful, letting the natural power envelop her.

Time dragged on, and slowly, she fell asleep again.
