BXBX NOVEL Chapter 306 Fountain
Wain read the messages and nodded contentedly. The most significant change was that there were now new resources and one point of interest in the zone. Each resource was extremely important because it helped the monsters progress, and Edena and Lui Bu could use it to their advantage.
"Phew, it all worked out..." Elegan muttered.
"Of course, could it have been any different? Forgotten\'s fencing is at an incredible level." Frigus said seriously and pulled out his swords. He headed into one of the caves to practice.
The battle between Forgotten and Rai motivated him to try harder, and he learned a lot from their duel. Sometimes it was enough to look at what perfection should look like to see his own mistakes. He didn\'t need a mentor for that, just an understanding of his shortcomings.
Frigus realized what he lacked and decided he could fix it in the near future if he concentrated. His style was different from Forgotten\'s as he fought with two swords, but Frigus had no intention of copying anyone. He was only inspired.
Wain looked at what new resources were available and moved to the point of interest, but suddenly Sarras entered the cave.
"What the hell happened here?!" Lich shouted and slammed his staff on the ground.
"Were you in a coma? We were defending ourselves against an attack during a zone upgrade." Wain muttered.
"I know about that. Do you think I\'m an idiot?"
"By the way, you could have helped. We were lucky to have Forgotten with us. You were too reckless." Elegan said seriously.
"Shut up. I don\'t need to be told off by a walking chest. I\'m not talking about what was invaded. I\'m talking about what showed up in my territory."
"Hmm? What is it?" Wain asked.
"Go and see instead of asking questions." Sarras said irritably and headed for the bone crater.
"Damn, Wain, I consider you need to think to us who you\'re inviting to our team. First, it was a drunk who tries to sleep our monsters off every day, and now some inadequate brute." Elegan muttered.
"Never mind, everyone has their disadvantages. We put up with you being so tedious." Wain said and went for Sarras.
"What?! I\'m tedious?! How could you even say that?!"
"Hahaha, hearing the bitter truth is always better than a sweet lie." Forgotten uttered.
"Damn!"
...
"What this is?" Sarras said, pointing to something.
"Isn\'t that a fountain?" Wain mumbled thoughtfully, looking at the unusual fountain of bones, whose water was red like blood.
"I realize it\'s a fountain, but why the fuck did it show up here? It\'s in my way!"
Wain looked around, and there was nothing but dead land strewn with bones around the fountain. In the distance were the outlines of caves where skeletons and other undead lived.
"Are you fucking kidding me? What the fuck is your problem with this fountain, and if I\'m not mistaken, it\'s a new point of interest." Wain said and decided to check it out.
[Blood Fountain (Second Chronicle, Heroic Rating)
This bloody fountain appeared in a creepy place where only death and the undead reign. However, this is what gives the fountain its unique aura and properties.
The fountain can\'t run out, and the blood will constantly regenerate even if you drain it completely. A blood fountain can be a curse as well as a blessing.
*If you drink water from the fountain, you will briefly increase all stats by a few percent. The number is unique for each creature.
*There is a small chance that the water from the fountain will interact with the creature\'s blood and help it evolve faster for a while.
*There is an incredibly small chance that the fountain water will increase your blood purity by a few percent. Works only for those whose blood purity is below 50%]
"Hahaha, Sarras though you\'re creepy unhappy, it\'s a real miracle. Read the description of this fountain before you grumble like an old man." Wain pronounced contentedly.
Sarras thought about it and did as Wain advised.
"Hmmmmmm. That\'s actually not bad. The fountain will be good for us, that\'s good, but I hope you use it rationally."
"Rationally? What do you mean?"
"Isn\'t it obvious? I mean that such a valuable resource should be given to the strongest and most successful warriors."
"Your words make sense, but I won\'t follow that system entirely. I understand that full equality doesn\'t make sense since everyone has different abilities and preferences, but we should find an approach to everyone, and that will be the most effective option."
"Tsk, do as you please. Most importantly, don\'t forget about my undead." Sarras grumbled.
"By the way, will this fountain be useful to the undead? Do skeletons have blood purity, too?" Wain was puzzled.
"Of course."
"But how? You only have bones."
"Blood purity is primarily energy, not fluid flowing through veins. Its core is in Soul Altar. Otherwise, solving the blood purity problem would be very easy. You\'d just have to transfuse it, and that\'s it."
"Makes sense."
"Alright, think about what to do with this fountain, and I\'m off, and I hope there aren\'t hundreds of monsters here tomorrow wanting to drain the fountain. Otherwise, I\'ll strangle them with my own hands and turn them into silent zombies." Sarras uttered with a wave of his mantle.
Wain remained at the fountain and pondered. Edena and Lui Bu appeared in his mind at once. They both had problems with blood purity, especially Edena, and this was their chance to create something incredible.
\'It\'s unlikely they\'ll be able to create potions with Blood Essence using the liquid from this fountain, but at least it would be a start down the road. Better some practice than none.\'
He understood that even if Edena and Lui Bu were talented, they needed time for their talent to blossom. Moreover, potions with Blood Essence were a real treasure, even of the lowest quality.
It could change someone\'s life in a few sips, like what happened to Edena when Wain gave her the vial.
