Ten Thousand Races War: I Have a Fusion Ability - Chapter 7

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Closing the channel, Zhuo Bufan got down from the hammock and came out of the house with a solemn expression. Looking at the barren land in front of him which only had a few torches burning continuously, he felt depressed.

They had truly given him a plot of land that resembled an opening area of a building game. He had to rely on himself for the rest. Suddenly, he remembered that he still had the System Scrolls in his backpack. He might as well open them now.

[Water well]

[Ordinary wells and underground water sources cannot be directly consumed. They must be boiled!]

[Synthesis Materials: Rock, Wet Mud]

“Yesterday, when I was looking for obsidian stone and gold ingots, I collected a lot of stones. But what’s with the wet mud?”

Zhuo Bufan muttered to himself, but he remembered that building a house required cement as a glue, so the wet mud should be referring to cement!

Soil was easy to find. It was all over the ground, but to obtain soil so wet that it became mud would require some thought.

Did he have to go to a specific location to find it, or did he need to mix in some extra materials?

… Only when the soil was mixed with water could it become wet mud!

Zhuo Bufan smacked his forehead. Whatever he thought out loud turned out to be the case.

But where could he go to get water?

Only then did Zhuo Bufan realize that from the moment he came to this place until now, he had yet to drink water. Water and food were the most important things to maintain his life.

How could he have forgotten about this key issue?

He stood on the spot and opened the chat.

[Ten Thousand Races Battlefield World Channel]

Within the [Human Race Channel]…

[Excuse me, does anyone know where I can find a water source?]

[This Penniless Monk remembers that there is a spring at the back mountain of the territory. Benefactor, you can go there to take a look.]

Zhuo Bufan turned back to take a look at the back mountain and swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Saying that it was a mountain was really a little modest, it was clearly Mount Everest!

Forget about the mountain, even going up was a problem.

However, if one did not complete all the Elementary 1 Star Scrolls, one would not be able to unlock the Elementary 2 Star Scrolls even if the Fusion Halo had already achieved the Elementary 2 Star level. Everything was difficult in the beginning, but he did not expect it to be difficult in trudging through high mountains and deep rivers.

[The mountain is too high, I can’t climb it. Even if I climb it, I’ll die if I fall!]

Zhuo Bufan told the truth. The height of three floors was already enough to lose one’s life, let alone a mountain peak that towered into the clouds.

[Aika: Why would you climb the mountain? What will you get by doing that?]

[Anasu: You don’t have to climb the mountain, climbing the mountain is useless!]

Indeed, listening to a wise man’s word during a banquet beats listening to the entire banquet.

[Benefactor, there is a path at the foot of the mountain. You can use it to ascend. Please pay attention and see if my hairy disciple is there. If he doesn’t return, I will use my ultimate move!]

For a moment, Zhuo Bufan did not know whether he should cry or laugh. Fortunately, someone pointed him to the right path. He only took some time before he reached the foot of the mountain.

Sure enough, in the direction to the right, he saw a small path covered by a pile of weeds. Zhuo Bufan was overjoyed and ran all the way. After an unknown period of time, he finally heard the sound of water flowing.

He was already close!

At the start, he was like a headless fly running around randomly. Now that he had finally found a direction, it wasn’t too difficult. It had to be said that the human channel was quite caring.

As the sound of flowing water became louder and louder, Zhuo Bufan’s footsteps became more energetic. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and his footsteps also suddenly stopped.

What was that?

In the short grass, there was something red like a small light bulb. Even in the dark, it was faintly glowing.

Zhuo Bufan slowly approached, carefully pushing aside the underbrush. What if a snake was hiding inside, wouldn’t he lose his life just like that?

Fortunately, the thing he was worried about did not happen. After pushing aside the grass, the little thing finally revealed its full appearance. It was a fruit that was only the size of a palm. Its skin was smooth and delicate, and its entire body was red, as if it could burst out with juices when pinched.

However, Zhuo Bufan did not apply any pressure on his hand. Instead, he quietly let go and even took two steps back.

After taking a picture of this unknown little fruit, Zhuo Bufan opened the chat channel.

[Ten Thousand Races Battlefield World Channel]

Within the [Human Race Channel]…

[“Attached Picture.png”]

[Everyone, I’m here to disturb you again. May I know what this is? Can it be eaten?]

[Benefactor, where did you find it?]

[On the road behind the mountain. Do you know what this is?]

[Forgive this poor monk for being ignorant. I don’t know what this is. Go and ask others if they have seen it before.]

Zhuo Bufan sighed and could only continue asking the others active in the channel.

[Aika: Oh my god, this is good stuff!]

[Anasu: I know. It’s a Red Spirit Fruit, a very rare fruit. It can be made into a weapon with a strong force!]

Indeed, the beautiful lady was knowledgeable.

With the two of them being certain, Zhuo Bufan could rest assured now. He no longer had any hesitation and carefully plucked the Red Spirit Fruit.

Holding it in the palm of his hand, the fruit was still emitting a red glow. Those who didn’t know would think that it was a Devil Fruit.

Putting it away, he turned around. Zhuo Bufan had just taken two steps when he returned back to the area. He almost forgot what he came here for.

Arriving at the water’s edge, Zhuo Bufan first washed his face without any consideration to make himself more comfortable. Then, he started digging the soil nearby.

He dug up a shovel’s worth before seeing a notification: Obtained +1 Wet Mud.

+1!?

Zhuo Bufan nearly fainted from anger. You can’t be so f*cked up, how much would he need to dig up to make the well?

He looked at the 40 stones in his backpack. It seemed that he would have to get at least 40 shovels here.

However, with the well, it would be easier to use water in the future. It was much closer than coming to the waterfall again and again.

After weighing the pros and cons, Zhuo Bufan began to shovel the soil, making a circle along the shore, only stopping when the amount of wet mud and stones in his backpack was equal.

“Jesus, the construction site and cement making are also not that tiring. I need a break.”

Zhuo Bufan sat on the ground as though paralyzed, resting for an entire half an hour before he got up and returned the way he came.

Returning to his house, he found a suitable spot and opened the Scroll..

After putting in the materials needed for the well, there was another unpleasant sizzling sound.

Just as it looked like it was about to explode, the synthesis actually succeeded!

Furthermore, what was synthesized was not one well, but four wells, presented in front of Zhuo Bufan in the shape of a ‘田’.

“What’s this, getting triple the compensation if one is fake?”

Zhuo Bufan muttered to himself. He came to the side of the well and looked down. Around seven to eight meters down, water sparkled as it reflected the light.

The other three wells were the same.

This time, he really didn’t have to worry about using water anymore. He looked at the small wooden house again and felt that it was pretty perfunctory. However, he still had a long time here. He could slowly gather materials and build a skyscraper if he wanted.

The first half of the night was extremely tiring for him. Zhuo Bufan did not even have time to see what use the Red Spirit Fruit had before he fell asleep on the hammock.

He slept until late into the third morning. When he woke up, Zhuo Bufan discovered that his two arms felt like they were no longer his. They were incomparably sore and he could not even lift them up.

“Why is my body still so weak after coming to this damn place? This won’t do!”

Zhuo Bufan realized the root of his problem.. If he had known that there would be such a day, he should have listened to the gym teacher back then and bought the package for 100 private coaching sessions!
