Survival in the Mist: From a Dilapidated Wooden Hut to a Heavenly Palace in the Clouds

Seeing the change in its companion, another little gray rock bear nearby showed no fear in its eyes, but rather a hint of fervor and envy.

He hurriedly stepped forward and rubbed against Mo Ming's thigh.

This little gray rock bear looks very brave.

Mo Ming patted its round head. "Don't worry, you get a share too!"

Then he used the remaining mutated scroll on it.

The same thing happened again, except this time the light was no longer the golden yellow, but turned into an eerie dark red!

A few minutes passed in the blink of an eye. When the light faded, what appeared before Mo Ming was a two-legged creature, over 3 meters tall, with a black and red body and several protruding red ridges on its back, like the dorsal fins of a shark, gleaming red.

A large X-shaped mark, like a scar or a mark, covered the left eye, giving off a feeling of a one-eyed pirate captain.

Two fist-sized eyes emitted an eerie red light.

The bear's overall demeanor is: sinister, violent, and extremely oppressive!

[Black Gold Deinonychus: Emerald Green]

Talent: Multiplication (Can increase or decrease body size based on own level, current multiplier: 2)

Gilded Armor (The body is covered in gilded light armor for a short period of time, increasing speed and making it indestructible).

Description: A super ferocious beast with a very high growth potential, resembling a demon god descending to earth!

If the heavily armored mountain-crushing bear gives the impression of a tall and majestic celestial beast, then the black gold dinosaur claw bear at this moment is like an ancient ferocious beast that has broken free from its seal, exuding a terrifying demonic aura!

No need to say anything more, Lady Luck, YYDS!

"From now on, you'll be called Big Bear and Little Bear."

"The Heavy Armor Mountain-Crushing Bear is Xiong Da, and the Black Gold Terrorclaw Bear is Xiong Er." Mo Ming was very satisfied with the names he had chosen, and he couldn't stop the two of them from shaking their heads and picking and choosing.

Having acquired two juvenile, yet incredibly powerful, ferocious beasts, Mo Ming even felt a sense of power, as if he could crush the mastermind behind the Misty World...

Of course, that's just wishful thinking; Mo Ming wouldn't be so foolish as to actually use them to challenge the Misty World.

After all, even the Gray Rock Bear and the Mutated Scroll are products of the Mist World, so why would they want to fight against the Mother?

Have you lived enough?

......

Without lingering too long in the sudden joy, Mo Ming had Xiong Da and Xiong Er shrink their bodies and return to the Beast King's Palace.

He then went to get down to business.

As for Xiao Jin, let it fly on its own; the air is much safer than the ground.

Mo Ming examined the building materials of the wall.

青铜古墙：440/100石头，青铜5/10(附带青铜大门两扇，长度100米)

Based on the size of his shelter and outdoor facilities, Mo Ming made a plan to enclose a 200-meter by 200-meter territory with ancient bronze walls.

A total of 8 bronze walls are needed, which is 800 units of stone and 80 units of bronze.

Mo Ming is still short of materials, but he is not worried. He has the Deep Blue Grade Earthly Holy Spring as a resource. Although the output is limited, the value is huge. He can keep enough for his daily consumption and exchange the rest for materials.

The Earthly Holy Spring contains a vast amount of energy, but with Mo Ming's current physique, the amount he can absorb is limited. About 500ml per day is the upper limit; any more than that would be wasted as he wouldn't be able to absorb it.

Without hesitation, Mo Ming divided the 600ml of Holy Spring into 30 portions and listed them on the trading platform, exchanging them only for wood, stone, plastic, and bronze.

As Mo Ming had predicted, the Deep Blue-grade Earthly Holy Springs were even more popular than before, and all of them were sold out in less than half an hour.

Mo Ming currently possesses over two thousand units of wood, more than one thousand units of stone, six hundred units of plastic, and one hundred and forty units of bronze.

Without any reservations, Mo Ming directly constructed eight ancient bronze walls and six greenhouses.

The territory, enclosed by ancient bronze walls, resembled a small manor, solemn and dignified yet giving one a particularly safe feeling.

Beep beep!

As Mo Ming was admiring his increasingly perfect territory, a message notification came from his bracelet.

Song Yufei: How come you have deep blue-level spring water again?

Song Yufei: I want it! I want it!

Mo Ming: Can you please watch your words? Do you know how much impact those words had on a straight man?

Song Yufei: Pui pui! You big pervert! I said I wanted spring water, don't get the wrong idea!

Mo Ming was speechless. "Big sister, what you said is wrong, and you're blaming me for thinking dirty thoughts?"

Mo Ming: That's all.

Song Yufei: Do you think I believe that?

Mo Ming: Okay, how many do you want?

Song Yufei: I'll take whatever you give me.

Song Yufei: What do you want? Stone? Bronze?

Mo Ming considered it for a moment and decided to keep 1000ml for cultivating crops and for his own use, while planning to trade 500ml to Song Yufei.

Mo Ming: 500ml can be exchanged for 2000 units of stone + 2000 units of bronze.

Song Yufei: Why don't you just die?

Song Yufei: Do I look like an idiot to you?

Mo Ming: Uh... there really is a bit!

Song Yufei: Get out!

Song Yufei: Get serious!

Mo Ming: Then let's accumulate to 2000 units. Sigh... what can I do? I'm just so chivalrous!

Song Yufei: If you were in front of me, I would definitely strangle you...

Mo Ming: ...

After some friendly haggling, the two finally agreed on a price of 2000 units plus a delicious dinner.

Raising prices first and then lowering them is a common tactic!

This time, Mo Ming is stubbornly refusing to budge. If I don't exchange it for 2000 units of your resources, wouldn't I be letting down my precious Earthly Holy Spring?

With the help of the Earthly Holy Spring, Mo Ming no longer needs to go out to collect resources such as wood and stone. Even bronze, which he used to struggle to obtain, is now readily available.

Mo Ming's current goal is to continuously improve the shelter facilities, manage his territory, and cultivate his own strength. He is currently building his team around Xiong Da, Xiong Er, and Xiao Jin.

I still have an Emerald-grade taming scroll in my hand; it's time to go out for a stroll.

Before setting off, Mo Ming opened his friends list, intending to trade some insect excrement with Zhang Lisha to make plant catalytic fertilizer.

Mo Ming: Do you still have insect droppings there?

Zhang Lisha: Yes, there are, but... the price might have to go up. The temperature is low now, making it difficult for the Black Steel Beetle to breed, so...

Mo Ming certainly wouldn't easily believe the reason that low temperatures make it difficult to breed. Zhang Lisha was able to get an S rating, plus the S-level reward for the rating, so the shelter should be at least level 2 now, and level 3 is not impossible.

The black steel beetles are kept in a sanctuary. How low can the temperature get?

If you want to raise prices, just say so!

But it's only been two days since the last transaction, and the price is already going up? Could it be...?

Mo Ming: How much do you want it to go?

Zhang Lisha: Previously, it was 10ml of Emerald Green Earth Holy Spring water to be exchanged for 300g of Black Steel Beetle feces, a ratio of 1:30. This time, the ratio remains the same, but the Earth Holy Spring water has been replaced with Deep Blue grade.

(Mo Ming: Sure enough, seeing Lao Tzu's deep blue-level spring water makes me itchy.)

Mo Ming: Isn't your price a bit too high? Deep Blue-grade Holy Spring, the ratio is still 1:30?

Zhang Lisha: Boss, as you know, the environment is terrible now, and it's really hard for black steel beetles to reproduce... It's even more difficult to get their droppings!

Mo Ming didn't expose him, but he was too lazy to waste any more words and just named his price!

Mo Ming: 1:80, if that doesn't work, I'll find someone else.
