139: Upgrade! Awaken the Exploration Hint Talent!

"Damn it! This is a fruit pit with a soul!"

Su Lie's eyes lit up. While muttering, he dug out the pit of the soul spirit fruit.

When he dug out the soul spirit fruit pit.

Sure enough, he saw it was being entangled by roots condensed from blue light dots.

The root system seemed to sense Su Lie's intention and actively released the pit.

The pit then let out a chuckle: "Hehe! This bipedal beast actually has some brains! Thanks to it, I can escape... When it soaks me, I'll excrete more gas to make the soda taste even stronger!"

"Waah! Sleepy! I can't stay awake!"

"I have to sleep first!"

...Su Lie's eyes widened as he listened. He stared disbelievingly at the pit in his hand: "The mint-flavored soda is its excretion? What the hell did I just drink?"

With that said.

He angrily put the pit into the ruyi pouch.

Su Lie looked at the Shelter's panel.

He saw.

An extra attribute appeared on the panel.

[Companion Spirit Plant: Soul Spirit Tree (Effect: Shelter Companion Blessing)]

However, the enhancement effects of the Soul Spirit Tree on all the Shelter's specialties were not displayed in the enhancement effects section.

After a brief check.

Su Lie did not plan to continue picking the soul spirit fruit.

He guessed that once the Soul Spirit Tree's attributes were fully realized, the fruits could be harvested one by one through the Soul Spirit Tree itself.

Subsequently.

Su Lie came to the dried corpse tree.

He sacrificed 200 monster crystals to activate the Garden's Sacrifice Harvest and Sacrifice Ripening effects.

Soon.

He obtained 500 Dried Corpses through the dried corpse tree.

This time, Su Lie arranged for 50 Dried Corpses to go in various directions outside the Shelter for long-distance exploration, leaving Spirit marks on some of them to control them.

The remaining 450 Dried Corpses were killed one by one by Su Lie.

He gained 900 attribute points and 450 monster crystals.

It was also at this moment that his level increased to 18.

Buzz!

A golden light burst forth from Su Lie's body.

Immediately after, Su Lie's personal panel popped up automatically.

Su Lie looked at the panel in front of him; this upgrade was the same as before.

His Lifespan increased by 1 year, and the experience required for Level 18 was 1000 points more than for Level 17.

All his attributes increased by 100 points.

He also gained 500 Free Attribute Points.

"Charm, Luck Value, and Authority can be increased again!"

Su Lie rested his chin in his hand and allocated points to these three attributes.

[Buzz!]

When Charm, Luck Value, and Authority each reached 4000 points.

A prompt appeared in Su Lie's line of sight.

[Congratulations! You have successfully awakened the blue rare quality Talent: Exploration Hint]

[Exploration Hint: blue rare quality; You will have 10 Exploration Hint chances every day. It will provide Exploration Hints such as the probability of resources appearing in the relevant direction/range, and the probability of danger.]

"Exploration Hint? Is this an auxiliary Talent that can only be used during exploration?"

Su Lie's eyes lit up.

He realized this must be related to Luck Value.

Immediately.

He used Enhance on this Talent.

Buzz!

In an instant, the Exploration Hint Talent was upgraded to a Red God-level Quality Talent.

Su Lie looked at its panel again.

This time, the information was completely different from before.

[Exploration Hint: Red God-level Quality; When you leave the Shelter to explore, it will actively give you relevant Exploration Hints, including warnings about crises, resources, and missions, which can help you obtain more resources.]

"Now I finally don't have to explore blindly!"

Su Lie smiled after reading it.

This Talent truly awakened at the right time.

Afterward.

Su Lie used the bodies of the 450 Dried Corpses along with monster crystals to refine 450 Little Skeletons.

Just as he was about to arrange for the newly born Little Skeletons to mine.

Su Keqing excitedly ran over: "Master! Did you cause the changes in the Vegetable Garden, Paddy Field, and Spirit fields? This is simply amazing!"

Now, the crops in the Vegetable Garden, Paddy Field, and Spirit fields had all matured.

Especially the Sunlight Wheat planted last night had matured again.

After Su Keqing's investigation, she found that.

The vegetables in the Vegetable Garden could mature three times a day, and the rice in the Paddy Field, as well as crops like sorghum, soybean, cotton, and potatoes in the Spirit fields, matured at least twice a day.

As for the Sunlight Wheat, it matured every half day, achieving three harvests every two days on average.

And the No. 1 Spirit field, boosted by the anomaly bead, matured every 12 minutes on average—and that was just the Sunlight Wheat.

Listening to Su Keqing's account, Su Lie felt increasingly cheerful.

He asked Su Keqing, "You didn't just come here to bring good news, did you?"

"Haha! Of course not! I need troops from you! My Little Skeletons aren't enough! I need lots of Little Skeletons! Otherwise, I really can't handle everything!"

Su Keqing laughed, her eyes burning as she looked at the group of newly born Little Skeletons following behind Su Lie.

Seeing this, Su Lie understood her intention: "Alright! These 450 Little Skeletons are yours!"

"Hehe! Thank you, Master!"

Su Keqing smiled excitedly.

She quickly called the Little Skeletons to head toward the Spirit fields, Vegetable Garden, and Paddy Field outside.

Now that the grains and vegetables had matured.

She urgently needed this new force to help with the harvest.

After seeing Su Keqing off.

Su Lie then returned to the first floor of the Shelter.

At this time, the 25 Little Skeletons of the Exploration Team were fully armed and lined up.

Su Lie performed a simple inspection of them before leading them outside the Shelter.

Right now.

Everything was ready.

It was time to venture out and explore.

Creak!

The door of the Shelter was opened by the Little Skeleton of the Black Tortoise Army.

Su Lie led the way out of the door.

When he looked up towards the front of the door.

A hint quietly appeared.

[There is a huge crisis in this direction!]

[There are no collectible resources within a 5-kilometer radius!]

[The area beyond 5 kilometers is occupied by the Soul Spirit Tree. This is a BOSS-level giant companion monster that has formed a symbiotic relationship with the ruins. If you enter, the probability of death is 70%!]

"Hmm? Is this the effect of the Exploration Hint Talent?"

After reading it, Su Lie silently turned his head to look in the other directions.

Soon.

He glanced at the other three directions.

He found that.

In these three directions, large numbers of Mist Monsters were fighting with the vengeful Spirits and evil ghosts of the Undead Race on the left and right sides.

The probability of acquiring resources was 10%, and the probability of death was 50%.

The safety probability behind the Shelter was 60%, the probability of obtaining opportunities was 1%, the probability of acquiring resources was 50%, and the probability of death was 10%.

"It seems I can only explore in the direction behind the Shelter!"

Su Lie quickly made a decision based on the information provided by the Exploration Hint Talent.

Whoosh!

Su Lie took out the god-tier children's scooter, and with the 25 Little Skeletons of the Exploration Team, he utilized the scooter's automatic driving capability to ride it toward the city ruins area outside the Gravity Oasis for exploration...
