Craft!
[Torch +1, Vine -1, Wood -1, Resin -1]
Immediately, a torch appeared in the warehouse.
Andrew was surprised to find out that not everything needed to be crafted on a crafting table. He immediately thought about whether he could temporarily craft weapons here.
However, the answer disappointed him because some more complex items still required a crafting table to be made!
Andrew took out the torch and immediately ignited it using flint.
Sure enough, the surrounding fog quickly receded three meters as if it had encountered a natural enemy.
Andrew's vision finally became a bit clearer!
It was only at this moment that he realized that there was a large area of poisonous thorns in front of him.
However, all these poisonous thorns grew out of a single main stem.
Andrew had only cut off some of its branches before and obtained 13 poisonous thorns. If he cut off the entire...
He smirked, and then swung the rusty metal axe in his hand and chopped at the poisonous thorns.
[Poisonous thorns: Durability 98/99]
Damn it! These poisonous thorns were so durable!
It was fortunate he had a metal axe.
After swinging the axe ninety-nine times, the poisonous thorns finally fell!
[Poisonous thorns +187]
He had gained a lot!
With just a torch, he had obtained 200 poisonous thorns!
After collecting the poisonous thorns, Andrew decided not to go any further. Although there were some berries to pick ahead, he decided to give up.
From the time he arrived at this place, opened the treasure chest, and chopped down the poisonous thorns, he had wasted a full hour and a half!
Even if he were to return the way he came, it would still take him nearly an hour.
Especially when Andrew was making the torch, he saw the weather forecast in the magic book.
[Time: 09:25, only 01:15 left until the mist diffuses. The rainstorm arrives early due to low pressure causing the fog to quickly converge. Please return to your residence in time to avoid getting injured by acid rain.]
He had to return within one hour and fifteen minutes. According to the weather forecast, a rainstorm was coming!
And this rainstorm was acid rain that could cause external injuries!
Damn it! The danger was everywhere in this world.
Andrew held the torch and quickly headed back in the direction of his residence.
He had to get out of the fog forest within an hour! If he got caught in the acid rain, it would be troublesome!
[Danger! There is an unpredictable crisis 87 meters ahead. Please take a detour!]
[!!!]
Andrew's eyes suddenly lit up with three red exclamation marks!
This indicates that the danger ahead was not only unpredictable but also an absolute entity that he cannot touch at his current stage!
Andrew suddenly remembered the huge black shadow in the mist!
Could it be that thing?
The more he thought about it, the more scared he became. Andrew decided to take a detour.
Since even the system says it's an unpredictable crisis, he didn't have the courage to challenge it.
[South: There is an unmineable rocky mountain range ahead with nothing good, don't waste your effort.]
The south did not indicate any danger, and Andrew walked about a hundred meters south before deciding to turn around.
But as soon as he turned around.
[Danger! Unpredictable crisis ahead at 87 meters, please take a detour!]
The red exclamation mark did not change!
Not only that, the distance of 87 meters ahead did not change at all.
This indicates one thing! And it was a terribly frightening thing!!
That thing's length exceeded one hundred meters!
In that instant.
Andrew's heart was about to jump out of his throat. What kind of entity could have a length of over one hundred meters?
That was almost the height of a thirty-three-story building!
Thinking about this, Andrew quietly swallowed his saliva.
He even took several steps back before continuing to walk south. This time, Andrew walked for ten minutes before stopping.
But as soon as he turned his head again.
He froze again.
[Danger! Unpredictable crisis ahead at 87 meters, please take a detour!]
Still 87 meters?!
What's going on, this is impossible!
Even the monsters in Ultraman are not this tall. Hundreds of meters tall? What kind of joke is this?
"No."
Andrew thought seriously, what else could he have missed that would make him keep going around something and result in a danger warning of 87 meters ahead!
He took out the magic book and looked at it.
[Time 09:45, only 00:55 minutes left before the mist spreads. The rain is coming early, and the low pressure is causing the mist to gather quickly. Please return to your residence in time to prevent injury from acid rain.]
Only 55 minutes left, and he still had at least half an hour's journey home.
He had to find a way around it!
Andrew scratched his head, he must have gotten lost in the forest, it would have been great if he had a compass.
[Upgrade Tree Level 1 Tool List]
[Compass: Magnet 0/1, Glass 0/1, Resin 9/2 (requires production at the workbench)]
Even if ignoring the lack of materials, he couldn't produce it at the workbench right now!
It was hopeless!
Watching the time passing by bit by bit, Andrew became anxious. He scanned his warehouse for something else he could use.
Finally, Andrew's eyes fell on the white egg.
At least this was something that came out of a silver-level treasure chest, so it should have some ability, right?
Maybe he could let it go and explore what was ahead of 87 meters, and if anything went wrong, he could pretend that he never found the egg.
Thinking of this, Andrew took out the [Unknown Egg].
Then he bit his finger and smeared the fresh blood on the white eggshell.
And this strange eggshell was like a sponge, automatically absorbing Andrew's blood, and still maintaining its smooth white surface.
Amazing!
Crack!
Crack! Crack!!
Just after Andrew injected blood into the egg, the eggshell quickly made a cracking sound.
Immediately after.
A fuzzy gray head appeared from the cracked eggshell.
And the little head hadn't even opened its eyes yet, but opened its yellow bird beak and started to eat the eggshell pieces.
Crunch, crunch, crunch~
Smack, smack, smack~
The eggshell seemed to be delicious, and the little thing ate it up!
Andrew carefully observed the little creature inside the eggshell. It should be a bird, right?
[Eagle Chick: A skilled hunter and explorer. Feeding it can accelerate its growth!]
It turned out to be an eagle!?
Not bad, it matched his current needs.
However, this eagle has just hatched, it probably can't fly yet, right?
Andrew looked at the eagle chick that had already eaten half of the eggshell, feeling a bit melancholy.
However, the changes that followed in the eagle chick surprised Andrew.
After the eagle chick finished eating the eggshell, Andrew noticed that it had started to grow taller. Its fur was shedding, and it began to grow white feathers.
