Surviving the Fourth Calamity

Chapter 2374 Some things are better not to appear

The "chi chi wai wai" potion is the most normal thing in the minds of the undead.

The most famous things in Toril are not the fancy alchemical wonders made by the wizards, but the dirty things that some stupid brains came up with.

Like their most useful kind of wine is actually made from the shit that some special lizard poops out.

Indeed, that kind of lizard is more like an elemental creature. Those things are just part of the nutrients they absorb from a special plant and then excrete from the body. They even have a natural fragrance, and the wine brewed from them is said to have a particularly unique flavor.

However, for Hill, who had witnessed the production process of civet coffee with his own eyes and had since decided not to be interested in any food that claimed to have a very special production process, the manufacturing process of that thing was enough to stop all his curiosity.

When he was in Trahill, he was already very lucky and didn't have the chance to taste the wine with special ingredients. Compared with the previous him, the current Hill would not even look at these things with mysterious production process and confidential raw materials.

Hill's cleanliness obsession is obviously a little more serious in Trahill... and this characteristic is obviously inherited from the ancestor of Crystal Flower.

He once suspected that this was a genetic gene from the elves.

But after walking around Toril, Hill completely put this doubt behind him.

Elves, this is real freedom!

Uniflora, on the other hand, although living in the ocean, even dislikes things filtered out by microorganisms. That is pure mysophobia.

However, Uniflora has a very special talent: she is very good at analyzing various raw materials... from the finished product.

She certainly couldn't be sure of the ratio, but Uniflora could sense clearly what ingredients were in it.

A Uniflora like this would definitely go crazy if the undead really threw those dirty things into the sea trench.

Of course Hill tried to stop it, and even directly asked William to intervene in the matter, but unfortunately to little avail.

Hill certainly knew that if the official warnings were too obvious, it could sometimes lead to worse consequences.

But if it is just a superficial reminder, it will be the same as no reminder at all for the undead.

But the most troublesome thing is that Uniflora is unwilling to let Hill use force to stop the undead from harassing her.

Hill was not surprised by the reason. His ancestor just didn't like others entering the area where her roots were to disturb her, but she liked to observe the movements of the outside world.

Uniflora's curiosity is not much less than that of the Earth Bear, and she is also very interested in getting involved in those trivial matters.

Hill had warned her of the undead's recklessness.

But he also knew that even those guys on Earth who had suffered many lessons from the Undead would forget their initial panic after a while and make the same mistake again.

People are always used to considering others by comparing themselves.

Many people feel that the undead are difficult to deal with right now because they haven’t figured out their situation.

Unable to understand the concept of online games, and yet tempted by the incredible benefits represented by the undead... they will convince themselves that the undead are not that difficult to deal with.

Uniflora was not greedy, but her observations of the undead were all based on the eyes on earth, watching the fire from afar.

Even Hill couldn't solve the absolute confidence of the Crystal Flower ancestor.

She felt that she could win this war, even if she encountered some setbacks along the way... Uniflora, who was used to the orthodox style of Master Trahil, could never have imagined how terrible things the undead, who had been influenced by Toril's weird alchemical style, could do!
However, Hill can take this opportunity to solve most of the problems.

Uniflora just didn't want Hill to strictly prohibit the undead from causing trouble in her place in the name of God, but she did not stop her from caring for her own children.

Hill nodded at the crystal bottle…and, when Hill sought Uniflora’s opinion on using this potion, she should have known that it would dissipate a large part of the undead’s curiosity about her.

Hill also had no intention of completely isolating the undead outside Uniflora's trench.

He believed that there would always be someone who would continue to play this tug-of-war game with Crystal Flower.

If it was just playing with Uniflora like he did with Aglaia in the past, Hill would certainly not be unwilling, he would even be very supportive!

Although he left Trahill, Hill did not cut off his contact with that place.

With the help of Lister, he has also been arranging matters on Trahill's side.

For example, send the newborn water element to Uniflora and slowly increase the time spent with her. It would be best if a new water element camp could be established in the ocean trench.

Doing so would not only satisfy Uniflora's desire to enjoy liveliness but hate dirtiness, but would also allow his little water ball to slowly carry the power of purification.

The several elemental lords who signed a contract with Hill are actually considered young in the elemental world.

That's why they live in a new world like Trasil... In other words, they are country rich people.

The ability is certainly not low, but it is nothing special. It is just the most basic elemental talent.

Of course, the contract between Hill and them was very fair and friendly, and it was not impossible to terminate it... as long as both parties agreed.

If any elemental creature wanted to leave, Hill would never refuse.

But he could actually feel that the elemental creatures would never have such thoughts... The worst outcome they considered was that Hill would fight desperately and could only be revived from the elemental core.

In that case, although they are still themselves, the soul contracts of the past will directly lose their effect.

Hill was of course very moved by the sincerity and trust of his elemental friends.

But he was also very clear about one thing: when these elemental creatures signed the contract with Hill in the beginning, they were not thinking of signing a contract to sell their entire lives to a being who generally would not reach the limit of life.

It has become an unknown who can live longer between Hill and these elemental lords.

Especially those elemental creatures who signed a contract with him before he became a legend... At that time, Hill behaved like a half-elf warlock deeply favored by nature.

Although they knew that Hill could live a long time...but the gap between living a long time and not dying was still a bit big.

Hill, of course, we have to make some plans for these elemental friends who have inexplicably sold their lives.

The earth element and the wood element are actually easy to deal with. After all, there are branches of the World Tree in Hill's Valley.

Living near the oak tree for a long time, these two elements will sooner or later develop their own unique characteristics.

But the water element... Although some of them will be affected by Aglaia's existence, there are still some particularly pure water elemental creatures who, to be frank, only think about sleeping, drifting and playing, and are completely unmoved.

But when Hill sent these guys, who were still small water balls decades later, to deliver a letter to Uniflora, he was shocked to find that they could comprehend the purifying nature of the crystal flower!
Even though the water element itself has some purifying power, it is definitely a drop in the ocean compared to that of the crystal flower… So, you can imagine how powerful the little water balls are after comprehending some purification talents.

In Sri’s words, if you throw it into the pond where the Duchess takes a bath, it will be cleaned up instantly!
So, Hill happily asked Uniflora to help take care of these little water balls... His arrogant old ancestor would never accept the little water balls sent by her grandson to play with her, but she would definitely not refuse to help Hill train his subordinates.

When the tension between Uniflora and the undead reaches a certain balance, Hill will build some interesting mazes near the sea trench.

There is no need for Uniflora to do anything, she just needs to command the little water balls to smash the undead.

The most important thing is that the elemental creatures that Hill contracted with would condense a leaf mark covered with a bear claw mark in their elemental bodies for easy identification.

As for what kind of leaves they are, it depends on which one the elemental creature thinks looks good.

But the bear claw will definitely not change, it will be exactly the same as the exclusive mark in the Hill Territory.

Hill actually had some doubts. The reason why the Undead had become curious about the Great Sea Trench so early was closely related to the sea monsters in the past.

Those big turtles, those big shells, and many more...but they were all severely ravaged by Uniflora.

To dominate a region, it is definitely not enough to just be considered the strongest by everyone.

Instead, you beat everyone so hard that they didn't dare to say a word.

Otherwise, with the overbearing and playful Aglaia around, normally…using the game’s terminology, Uniflora’s Trench should be a version a few issues later.

Even if Hill resolved the dispute between the Undead and Uniflora this time, he wouldn't be able to pay attention to it all the time.

Although Uniflora liked Hill's concern for her, she always kept a distance and would never be happy because of Hill's excessive attention.

But with the small water ball with his mark swimming in the sea trench, and those mazes that are obviously Hill's style, the undead will definitely understand that this crystal flower hidden in the sea trench is also closely related to Hill.

Although Hill would not actively let the undead think about the possible connection between Uniflora and Aglaia, he would not stop the undead from making that connection, right?
Hill sighed softly and turned to look in the direction of the Tower of Despair... In addition, he had some considerations that seemed inappropriate but reminded him of something.

The crystal flower was like the extremely powerful natural fairy from the legend of his past world.

And these goblins all have to survive a tribulation.

　Hope everyone is safe, please be careful in the next few days.
