The damage to the sail flag did not affect the navigation, and after about a day of sailing, people on the ship gradually saw an island emerging on the horizon.
As the ship approached, the island slowly enlarged, appearing flat and lush, resembling the corner of a continent.
“This is the Green Nightmare Demon Island, where most of you will spend your time from now on. If you perform well, you might be able to go to larger islands or even the continent.” Zeng Ze pointed at the island and spoke to these new members who had struggled through death.
Leaving the confined and enslaved island for one with cities and towns meant freedom.
It was difficult to describe this feeling in words. The eyes of the ten young Soul Pet Masters sparkled, and no matter how ruthless, cruel, and selfish they usually were, they all had some expectation for their new environment.
The Green Nightmare Demon Island had a large harbor, and when the ship docked at the pier, several other ships were busy transporting various goods, making the place bustling.
Islands are very far apart, and Chu Mu had not yet seen anyone who could directly ride their soul pets from the distant sea into an island.
There are many winged soul pets in the Demon Beast World, but there are not many that can satisfy various factors such as flight load capacity, flight stamina, and size to serve as a Soul Pet Master’s transportation. Cao Yi’s Blue Bird could only carry people flying for a short time, and its wings’ strength was not very strong, making it hard to bear for long periods.
“You, follow these two. They will arrange everything for you!” After disembarking, Cao Yi shouted at everyone and then disappeared in an unknown direction.
Zeng Ze and Gu Lei led the way, with the ten new members following closely behind.
The two Executors did not introduce the Green Nightmare Demon Island but simply instructed them to follow and not to wander around or leave the group.
Once inside the pier, a straight road could be seen, with houses and shops in the island style on both sides, not much different from some towns on land.
The straight road extended for about two kilometers before encountering an upward slope that led to a gentle mountain.
From the pier, all the way along the road, one could see the highest continuous buildings, among which one appeared to be a majestic palace with a distinctive tower-shaped eave, the symbol of the island.
“This mountain is the Nightmare Demon Palace, and there are quite a few places on this island clearly marked as forbidden for you to enter, one of which is the Nightmare Demon Palace which you are not qualified to enter at the moment…”
The architecture of the Nightmare Demon Palace was significantly more exquisite than the town at the foot of the mountain. However, Zeng Ze and Gu Lei did not take Chu Mu and the others to the Nightmare Demon Palace area but to the ordinary houses at the foot of the mountain…
“You are now the lowest level of actors with no position. Besides living and quarters on this island, you have no rights. Anyone who dares to disobey orders will die!”
“In a few days, we will take you into the Demon Palace and let you battle with newcomers from other islands, and based on your abilities, positions will be assigned to you.”
“With a position, you will receive some corresponding resources. It is worth mentioning that, according to your position battle ranking, you will receive rewards. The higher the ranking, the more generous the rewards. Yes… I remember that those who ranked high before received a highly talented war general level soul pet!”
Zeng Ze’s previous words made everyone feel a little bleak, but on hearing the possibility of obtaining a war general level soul pet, everyone’s eyes brightened a little!
The lowest species ranking is the Servant Level, which is divided into low, medium, and high levels.
War General Level is obviously a level beyond High-Level Servants. Even as
newborns, creatures with a War General Level species ranking have a very high value. These pets, with careful training, will not be defeated by medium or high-level servants once they reach a certain stage.
“I hope one of you can win a place and manage to get a good position…” Zeng Ze’s tone sounded strange when he said this.
“You will live here now, not much different from the wooden houses you lived in before. There won’t be many restrictions for the next few days. You can move around town, but remember that you are still the lowest level of actors. Do not go to places you shouldn’t go, and always pay respects to those who should be respected!”
After Zeng Ze finished speaking, he gave everyone a gold coin and told them to buy necessities in the town themselves.
After receiving the gold coin, Chu Mu returned to his wooden house. This time he had his own private room, separated from Ting Yu’s room by a wooden wall.
Chu Mu also preferred this private space since many secrets should not be known to others.
Chu Mu didn’t stay in his room for long, as he wanted to know what resources were available on the island to help him improve quickly.
The first place to go was the town’s business district. Chu Mu changed into a new set of clothes and went straight to the main street he had been to before.
“Chu Mu.” As soon as he walked out, Feng Gu came over, greeted Chu Mu in a relatively friendly manner.
Chu Mu just nodded without further engagement. Since Cao Yi exposed Chu Mu as the culprit, everyone, including Feng Gu, had been very friendly to Chu Mu. From their original indifference and contempt to their deliberate friendship now, the reason was evident.
The shops on the main street were mainly for soul pets and Soul Pet Masters. Chu Mu walked around, saw a pharmacy, and went in.
Inside the shop, various special medicinal herbs were displayed, protected by potion bottles and other things to maintain their efficacy.
“What do you need?” The shop assistant came over, scrutinized Chu Mu, and asked in a neutral tone.
“Do you have Tianlan grass?” Chu Mu asked.
Chu Mu had previously obtained a Jade Dew Mushroom. With the addition of Tianlan grass, he can concoct a Third Grade medicine – Sky Blue Jade Luzhi.
The Sky Blue Jade Luzhi can directly increase MO Ye’s growth by about two stages. Now, Chu Mu did not care about anything else, focusing on how to improve himself and his soul pets and become stronger!
“One gold coin per plant.” The assistant answered..
