Chapter 248: Chapter 248 Volcanic Exotic Flower

Li Wenli looked at Bai Junjun with amusement, "Miss, even if I had the intention to become a jewel trader, who could afford it in these chaotic times? We might as well deal in military supplies and sell them to those in power, letting them swiftly end their infighting and restore an era of peace and prosperity—only then will you have the opportunity to do business."

Bai Junjun was rendered speechless; this was indeed true.

She wanted to run a farm and play at agriculture, but that really required the prerequisite of a peaceful and prosperous era.

Now, whether it was Gold Mountain or Silver Mountain, or even the Great Salt Mountain, indeed none of them were worth much.

Bai Junjun sighed helplessly and tucked the pink diamond into her pocket, regretfully saying, "This matter requires long-term consideration."

Before long, the two arrived at a massive pit—waves of heat were rising from the hole, and ordinary people couldn’t get near it.

Driven by their survival instincts, Bai Junjun and Li Wenli lay on their stomachs at the edge of the volcanic crater before daring to peek inside.

After all, standing there unawares and tumbling in would be disastrous.

Perhaps because it had just erupted the day before yesterday, the volcano now seemed very calm. Only about a kilometer from the pit could they faintly see the orange-red magma.

Bai Junjun looked on for a while and then asked seriously,

"How are you going to acquire the Fire Spirit?"

To prepare the Water of Flora, she first needed to have a Special Ability, use that ability to connect with the plant, and then force the water out.

Was it the same for the Fire-series Ability?

If so, did that not mean that one had to penetrate the layer of magma?

With this thought, Bai Junjun raised her eyebrows; she was quite eager to see how a living person would manage to navigate the layer of magma.

"..." Li Wenli.

Looking at the girl who seemed too eager for a spectacle, Li Wenli shook his head helplessly.

"Indeed, I need your help."

"?" Bai Junjun was puzzled.

"I need a type of Fire-series booster, and you are the only one in the world who can make it."

She knew Li Wenli’s request for her assistance was not going to be as simple as slaying monsters.

Turns out, he needed her Wood-series Ability to cheat the system.

"Near the volcano, there’s a type of plant called the Drooping Tube Flower. They only grow and bloom when the volcano erupts and all else perishes. Once life starts to return, these flowers wither away, only to sprout and bloom again with the next volcanic eruption."

Bai Junjun was somewhat surprised, as she did not know about this plant.

After all, Polar Bear Base had only been a small faction before, and it was only after attaining Twelfth-rank Great Perfection and continuously refining Nutrient Solutions and Energy boosters that it became one of the Four Great Bases of the Apocalypse.

So strictly speaking, their base was just a nouveau riche businessman.

But Mystic Turtle Base was different; it had existed ever since The Apocalypse began and over the years had accumulated many world classic tomes. It was said that half of human civilization’s treasured books and records were in Mystic Turtle Base, with the other half in H Base.

These classic tomes were irreplaceable and priceless treasures. Even though Bai Junjun had grown her base strong and large, she couldn’t create them out of nothing.

Despite her repeated hopes of exchanging Nutrient Solutions for these classic tomes, Mystic Turtle Base had only given her some of the less important ones.

As for H Base, given their notorious reputation, Bai Junjun had never thought to trade with them.

So it made sense that Li Wenli knew many things that she didn’t.

A person who had read an encyclopedia would naturally have a different understanding of species than one who hadn’t.

And this Drooping Tube Flower, Bai Junjun indeed had never heard of it.

"It’s said that the roots of the Drooping Tube Flower grow within the volcanic rock layer. They are not afraid of high temperatures, and eating them allows one to walk through fire with ease. In ancient times, many people relied on it to traverse fiery pits," Li Wenli continued to explain.
