Thinking of his wrist that had been bitten by an unknown insect, Jiang Yingbai expressed deep envy.
Of course, envy is useless, so she decided to ask something useful, "Are there any plants nearby that can repel insects?"
Xia lowered her head and thought for a moment, "Yes!"
Suddenly she realized something. She grabbed Jiang Yingbai's hand and looked carefully. It was Jiang Yingbai's only exposed skin. "Wait a minute, were you bitten by an insect before?"
Her hands are very slender and soft, the temperature is lower than Jiang Yingbai's, and they feel comfortable to touch.
Xia quickly found a few small red bumps on Jiang Yingbai's wrist. Xia Liu frowned slightly. She took Jiang Yingbai's hand and ran in one direction.
Jiang Yingbai felt a little unnatural and wanted to retract his hand, but Xia held on very tightly.
Soon the two stopped in a forest with slender tree trunks. Xia squatted down and peeled away the thick weeds below. There were several small purple flowers under the weeds.
Joy flashed in Xia's eyes, "My friend is injured. If you are willing to help me, can you move your leaves?"
Under Jiang Yingbai's gaze, the leaves of the purple flower swayed up and down a few times.
Can Xia communicate with plants? !
Is Xia special, or are the plants here spiritual?
Xia stepped forward and gently touched the green leaves of one of the small flowers, "Thank you!"
The next scene was even more surprising. The little flowers that were touched gently rubbed Xia's fingers, while the little flowers that were not touched shook the green leaves crazily, seeming to complain about their dissatisfaction.
Xia smiled helplessly, "Okay, okay, I will touch you too."
Xia touched their green leaves one by one, and the next second the soil under their roots began to surge.
The roots of each small flower stick out from the soil, and are wrapped with several yellow fruits, each with a radius of one centimeter.
Xia took them one by one and found that they felt they were not enough and wanted to take the fruits out of the soil. Xia immediately stopped them.
"Okay, okay, that's enough, thank you."
After hearing this, the little flower stopped moving and its roots shrank back into the soil.
Xia crushed two fruits and applied them on Jiang Yingbai's wrists. The red, swollen and itchy wounds were replaced by an ice-cold touch.
Xia put the remaining fruits into Jiang Yingbai's palm, "Okay, nothing will happen. If you put these fruits in your pocket, no insects will come near you."
Jiang Yingbai happily put the fruit into his pocket, "Thank you, what is this?"
Kasumi replied, "Their fruits contain toxins, and most animals will lose consciousness and faint after eating them. Moreover, animals don't like its smell, and usually animals will avoid it."
Jiang Yingbai's eyes lit up, this is a good thing! She loved it!
Now she has a chance to escape when she encounters a large animal that she can't defeat.
Xia smiled, she was very happy to be able to help her companions, "Hehe."
The two continued towards Kasumi's home.
Xia saw that Jiang Yingbai's face looked much better now than before, and she began to ask herself what she was curious about, "Where are you from?"
Jiang Yingbai started talking nonsense, "I was originally from outside the forest, and I came here as soon as I woke up."
Xia's eyes were bright, "Outside the forest? This forest turns out to have an end."
Jiang Yingbai nodded. Although she had never been there, she knew through the mission chat that there was a kingdom outside and there were many, many people inside.
Jiang Yingbai told Xia the news he learned during the chat in the past two days.
There are several countries in this world, and most of the players' birth points are in the kingdom called Plata.
The technology in Plata is not developed and it is still in the era of the Agricultural Revolution. It is worth mentioning that this world has magic.
The number of magicians is very, very small, so their status is very, very high.
Magic is not difficult to learn in this world, their magic is provided by a huge tree.
The name of the tree is World Tree. Legend has it that there was a benevolent god in this world not knowing how long ago.
God created humans and taught them how to live in this world.
The gods subdue demons and eliminate demons for the people, adjust the climate, and prevent natural disasters.
The World Tree was planted by the gods with their own magic power, and the gods have been carefully caring for the World Tree.
People can learn magic through the magic spells spread by the gods, and then extract magic power from the World Tree and use magic.
But five hundred years ago, the gods in this world disappeared, and no one knew where the gods had gone.
Some people say that the gods were disappointed with this world, so they abandoned them and went to other worlds.
Some people say that because people excessively abused the magic power of the World Tree, the gods have died because of the exhaustion of magic power.
Some say that the gods found a better world, so he abandoned them and chose a better future.
Some people even say that some people use some special means to control the gods and try to kill them.
…
It was all said and done, but the gods in this world were gone. It was at this time that Jiang Yingbai knew why this mission was called "Godless Land".
Because the gods disappeared and no one cultivated the World Tree, the World Tree became smaller and smaller due to the magic power being drained away, and the magic power was also exhausted bit by bit.
The people in this world finally realized that if they continued to abuse magic without restraint, the World Tree would die due to exhaustion of magic power.
But no one knew how to restore the magical power of the World Tree, so the king ordered that civilians be prohibited from using magic, and violators would be killed directly.
All the magicians were arrested overnight, all books recording magic spells were burned by fire, and soldiers patrolled 24 hours a day to arrest people who used magic.
But nobles can still use magic, and they have weekly limits.
But this still can't stop it, the World Tree is drying up at a very, very fast speed.
A few years later, Plata had a new king. On the first day he took over, the new king ordered a complete ban on the use of magic. A few years later, they discovered that the World Tree would restore itself.
But the speed is very, very slow, far less than the speed of magic power consumption.
Much magic was lost under this king's harsh rule.
Time flies, the king dies of old age, and the new king begins to use magic again, and magic becomes the exclusive property of the nobles.
The World Tree withered little by little, and the king realized the seriousness of the problem, so they began to control the use of magic.
Time passed, and soon the current king arrived. The situation of World Tree was not optimistic, and the king only allowed a very small part of them to learn magic.
If you want to become a magician, you need to pass various tests.
After becoming magicians, they need to repel monsters that harm the people and deal with some natural disasters.
…
Jiang Yingbai knew all this in the chat. It must be said that these players are still very powerful. In less than three days, they understood the surface conditions of the world clearly.
Jiang Yingbai only told Xia that there was a country outside, but did not tell her about the history of the country or the gods.
