At this thought, Mu You left his backpack and went downstairs to bring up some feed for the small animals.

Carrots for the rabbits and chinchillas, mealworms for the birds, and also nuts, corn kernels, peanuts, clean water…

all the food Mu You could think of, was placed in a basin at the front of the small shed.

He’ll just wait until tomorrow to see which basin’s food is depleted, and he’ll have a rough idea.

After hustling around, it was already past midnight.

Mu You carried his lantern out for his routine patrol task.

But this time, he had to bring his backpack.

This backpack was too valuable, it was essentially a handheld magical zoo, which meant, he could never leave it behind when he was out.

He arrived at the park and sat down on his usual bench.

Mu You started the game and began to idle as usual.

He set off for Foggy Mountain in the morning, and now a whole day has passed, so he should be there now.

[After trekking for 20 hours, you’ve finally arrived at Foggy Mountain!]

[Foggy Mountain is a gigantic mountain that reaches a height of nine thousand meters, with plenty of spirit plants growing on it.

It’s the frequent haunt of medicinal plant gatherers and magic potion masters, as most of the demons living there are plant-based magical beasts.]

[You look up to see the entire mountain seeming like an enormous column reaching into the sky.

From one thousand meters up, the rest of the mountain is shrouded in a thick fog with visibility less than five meters.

From six thousand meters up, where the clouds act as a boundary, the part of the mountain that extends into the sky is a world of ice and snow, with numerous rare ice department spirit plants growing there.

But be warned, temperatures above the cloud layer are bitterly cold, and the air becomes extremely thin.

If ordinary creatures venture in, they will freeze and suffocate to death within half an hour.]

[Would you like to start climbing immediately?]

“Nine thousand meters…

this Foggy Mountain ain’t no pushover!”

Mu You was astonished.

A nine-thousand-meter summit was higher than Mount Everest, and don’t forget, Everest stood on the four-thousand-meter Tibetan Plateau, so its actual height was only a bit over four-thousand meters.

So, you can imagine how terrifying the peak of Foggy Mountain, which was twice as high as Everest, would be.

But, in this text, there was a line that peaked Mu You’s interest: lots of plant-based magical beasts on the mountain!

Mu You had yet to encounter any plant-based magical beasts, but it’s good that they’re plants!

Most plant creatures can’t move, which meant he could take advantage of them at range with his bow and arrow!

With anticipation, Mu You immediately set his character into motion to find out what these so-called ‘plant-magical-beasts’ actually looked like.

There was no fog below one thousand meters, so the Battle Eagle’s vision was still effective.

He quickly found the first wild monster blocking his path.

[Ahead in the distance, you see a Man-Eating Plant (Level 11), its mouth bristling with sharp teeth, swaying provocatively by the roadside, awaiting its unsuspecting prey.

Do you want to…]

Three options: [Shoot arrow from a distance], [Attack with sword], [Wide detour].

“Level 11…”

Mu You was startled not expecting the first magical beast he would encounter on the mountain to be this powerful.

He was only level six, and the Battle Eagle was level five.

He wasn’t sure if they could beat this thing.

Maybe they could give it a try.

[You hide in the distance and fire an arrow at the Man-Eating Plant.

At the same time, the Battle Eagle assists you in launching a swoop attack.]

[The Man-Eating Plant is enraged.

It catches the Battle Eagle in its mouth and swallows it as it swoops down.

Then, it pulls its head into the ground, avoiding your arrow.]

[Just as you think you’ve narrowly escaped, the Man-Eating Plant suddenly pops up below your feet!

It turns out that the Man-Eating Plant’s roots can extend as far as 30 meters, and it can appear anywhere within that radius.]

[The Man-Eating Plant swallows you in one gulp!]

[You have been killed by the Man-Eating Plant!]

[You have died, life reduced by 1, 74 years of life remaining.]

“Damn it!”

Mu You was shocked.

That Man-Eating Plant was ridiculously strong!

It scored a two-in-one kill.

And seriously, its attack range was ridiculously long, 30 meters, farther than the reach of his bow and arrow.

What happened to fighting plant-based magical beasts?

Time to reverse time!

[Time flows backward, returning you to five seconds before.

You are standing before the Man-Eating Plant once again.

This time, you decide to…]

This time, Mu You didn’t hastily make a choice, instead, he exited the game.

Given that this creature could pop up anywhere, there was no beating it on the ground.

He would have to figure out a way from the air.

The only air attack he had at the moment was the Battle Eagle’s second ability, a long-range Thunder Strike.

Just as it happened, Mu You had received a significant attribute boost yesterday.

He could now summon a new Battle Eagle and see what it would be like.

Mu You sat on a bench and began to meditate.

This time he did not have the accelerating effect of meditation from the cottage, thankfully the concentration of magic power in the air of Earth has significantly improved after this biological eruption.

In addition to the substantial reserves remaining in his crystal, after meditating for over four solid hours, the crystal once again returned to an overflowing state.

Mu You took a deep breath, pulled out his Magic Wand, and summoned the Battle Eagle.

Inside the crystal, all the natural magic power was sucked out in an instant.

At the same time, a Battle Eagle over two meters tall appeared in front of Mu You.

With just a flap of its wings, the small trees nearby were swaying from side to side.

Mu You glanced over it.

The Battle Eagle has obviously grown significantly.

Its black feathers were as dark as ink, golden neck feathers, white eagle face, beak curved like a fire poker, its sharp gaze, robust wings and the sheer presence was much more majestic than before.

On both its sharp talons, there were even signs of flickering electricity.

[Thunder Battle Eagle: Level 8, Combat Summon, Flight Summon.

Ability.

Vision Sharing: The caster can switch his view to the Battle Eagle at any time and control its actions through his consciousness.

True Sight: The Battle Eagle’s sight can display hidden units.

Thunder Strike: Launch a remote lightning attack from high above the ground to a target.]

“Level 8!”

Honestly, this level is slightly lower than Mu You imagined.

However, fortunately, he successfully unlocked a second ability.

Mu You immediately released the Battle Eagle and ordered it to launch an attack on a large tree not far ahead.

The Battle Eagle flew high in the sky, flapping its wings, retracting its talons, a bright and shiny lightning quickly condensed beneath its talons.

“Boom!”

The next instant, a loud and thunderous sound echoed across the sky as the dazzling lightning lit up the night sky then tore straight down.

The entire tree was split in half, and the trunk was charred black.

“Damn, damn it!”

Mu You immediately swore, not because of the immense power of this lightning, but due to its horrifying noise, isn’t this a bit excessive?

It’s as if a real thunderbolt struck down from the sky, exploding in front of him at a close range, numbing his ears.

Seeing that lights were already on in the countless residential buildings around him and the incessant barking and honking, Mu You hurriedly rewound time.

Looking at the Battle Eagle that landed on the ground, busily grooming its feathers, Mu You could not help but laugh bitterly.

What can you say, this thunder strike sure is strong, but the problem is, it’s too loud!

If a fight breaks out, everyone in the neighborhood would hear it!

Of course, he couldn’t say it’s all bad, in a real fight, such a show of force would exert enormous psychological pressure on his opponents.

When launched unexpectedly, it would undoubtedly leave the opponents in a daze.

Shaking his head, Mu You returned to the game.

At this point, the in-game Battle Eagle had also upgraded to level 8. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

Mu You immediately took it to the Man-eating Plant for a test run.

“When I attack from high above, you shouldn’t be able to do anything about it, right?”

[You command the Battle Eagle to launch a lightning attack on the Man-eating Plant from high in the sky.]

[The Man-eating Plant is enraged, but it’s unable to retaliate due to the lack of ranged attack capabilities.

It can only endure the beating.]

[While you, who can’t assist, continuously cheer and shout for the Battle Eagle from below, encouraging it.

The Battle Eagle, invigorated by your cheers, increases its attacking power, and amidst roaring thunder and flashing lightning, the Man-eating Plant eventually falls down!]

[With the help of the Battle Eagle, you killed the Man-eating Plant.

Your life span increased by 1, and your experience value increased by 11.]

“Damn, have I become a support?”

The instructional text pissed him off.

Surely he should also fire a few symbolic arrows.

But now his summon was stronger than him, relegating him to a support role…

he’s not even a support, he was just a cheerleader shouting “666”.

Just as Mu You was feeling morose, new text popped up in the window below.

[You search around and discover some remnants from the Man-eating Plant’s corpse.]

[You’ve obtained Carnivorous Plant Bulb *1, Carnivorous Plant Seeds *3.]
