New Branch Menu and Manual on Alchemy

Xia Feng was deep in thought after seeing the notification.

He made a decision after a moment of consideration.

"Yes," said Xia Feng softly.

[System notification: Organization founded successfully. Organization panel activated. Please check it in the game menu.]

Before Xia Feng acted, the game menu had already popped up.

Before, there had been three sections on the menu, namely Chat, Trade, and Craft.

At this moment, a new section, Organization, had been added. It was not hard to imagine how important it was.

As he clicked on the organization panel, a new menu showed up.

[Organization name: N/A]

[Organization leader: Xia Feng-0364133458]

[Organization level: 1 (Upgradeable; click to view the requirements for upgrade)]

[Organization members: 1/100]

[Organization prosperity: 0]

There were also three branches in the menu.

[Organization Storage]

[Organization Chat]

[Organization Dungeon]

After exploring the menu for a long time, Xia Feng finally figured out what it was about.

In general, it was similar to the guilds in lousy MMORPGs.

Xia Feng could invite other adventurers to his organization to build it up.

The items in the Organization Storage could be shared by all members. Of course, the storage wasn't free.

A credit point system was imposed in an organization. One could receive credit points by contributing items to the storage, and spend the credit points on buying or renting items from it.

The leader of an organization could decide if an item in the storage could be bought or rented.

The Organization Channel, evidently, was a medium for the members to communicate. It was similar to the regional channel.

The Organization Dungeon in the end was a benefit for the members.

Every once in a while, the leader of an organization could conquer dungeons with its members and win rewards.

After figuring out the functions of the organization menu, Xia Feng already had some plans.

However, it wasn't the time to implement them yet, at least not until he finished his business.

For example, he should use up his exploration opportunities for the day first.

Xia Feng was at the edge of the island. Not far ahead was a channel to another island.

[Island No.4: It has abundant assets, as well as a horde of cunning gnomes.]

[Those gnomes know how to make traps, but they're not strong. You may want to rob them. It's said that gnomes love collecting treasures. But they're very timid and may run off.]

Bad hint. Do you want me to do bad things again?

Xia Feng put on a smile and looked back. He didn't go to any of the other islands.

After the conversation with the mysterious merchant, Xia Feng found that the Source Crystal was likely the hard currency in the Misty Space.

If so, he certainly had to gather more of them.

Putting on his equipment and crossing the glittering membrane, he found himself in a spacious environment.

Phew, it feels much better to see things clearly.

Xia Feng took a long breath of relief at the edge of the 13th island.

The mysterious island was enshrouded in thick fog. Nobody would feel comfortable after spending a long time there.

The 13th island was quite large, and had a coverage of almost 10,000 square meters.

Ahead of him, a group of one-meter-tall gnomes, who had huge ears and green skin, was working on the island.

"Squeak…"

Xia Feng raised their attention the moment he showed up.

They stopped whatever they were doing, and gathered with pointy sticks in their hands.

"Big Black, don't run about. Stick with me."

Seeing that, Xia Feng stepped forward with a smile.

[Warning. There's a trap ahead of you. You'd better move in another direction, or jump five meters to cross the trap.]

The golden hint popped up in time.

On the other side, the gnomes all gazed at Xia Feng with excitement in their brownish eyes.

New prey fed himself to them today.

However, to their disappointment, the new prey stopped moving after only taking one step forward.

Waiting for a moment, the gnomes, seeing that the prey was still, couldn't help but attack him.

Several gnomes picked up stones from the ground, and threw them at Xia Feng.

Bam! Bam!

Two of the stones smashed into Xia Feng's armor successfully.

Xia Feng seemed to be provoked. He glared at the gnomes furiously.

He's angry! He's angry! He's about to move!

All the gnomes became thrilled. They could envision how Xia Feng would fall into the trap.

However, Xia Feng shockingly leaped with Big Black, and crossed almost 10 meters in the blink of an eye.

He checked his surroundings the moment he landed.

Perhaps because the gnomes were confident in the first trap, or maybe for some reason, there were no other traps here.

"Big Black, go at them!"

Therefore, Xia Feng and Big Black charged at the gnomes who didn't know what was going on.

The Lightning Crossbow appeared on his wrist, and the Frost Blade emerged in his hands too.

All the gnomes grimaced in bewilderment. Why had the prey reached them so quickly? They weren't even ready to flee yet.

"Why didn't he step on our trap?"

It went without saying that none of the 30 gnomes survived Xia Feng's magnificent attacks. They gave 37 Source Crystals to him.

Collecting the Source Crystals in satisfaction, Xia Feng looked around at the plants and started looting them.

[System notification: Rice +300, Rice Seeds +30]

[System notification: Vegetables +100, Vegetable Seeds +10]

[System notification: Earth Fruits +200, Earth Fruit Seedlings +10]

[System notification: …]

After the looting, the land that looked rather prosperous earlier became completely barren.

After looting the materials, Xia Feng looked at the gnomes' cave.

According to the hint he saw earlier, there might be good stuff in the cave.

It was an underground cave, but its entrance was fairly easy to find.

Xia Feng entered through the entrance, and came to an underground space with a coverage of several hundred square meters.

There was a chest in the cave. Xia Feng opened it and acquired 30 Wood, 30 Stone, 20 Bronze, 10 Iron, four Silver, and an alchemy manual.

[Basic Alchemy Manual: It records some basic methods of alchemy in an ancient language.]

[If you can understand the tadpole-like words in it, this alchemy manual will be a treasure; if you can't, it's no better than toilet paper.]

Another item that I can't use yet. I might as well put it away first.

Throwing the alchemy manual into the Shelter Ring, he searched the gnomes' cave again.

He found nothing else, and returned to the surface.

When Xia Feng was going to the next island, a private message popped up.

Lin Feifan: Boss, I've reached out to several men who have recipes and want to sell them. Would you like to speak to them?

Xia Feng quickly replied after reading the message.

"Yes. Let them contact me."
