The dense fog is a characteristic of the Misty Forest, but the poisonous fog is not.

Yet every year, a group of adventurers lose their lives in the poisonous mist of the Misty Forest.

The system gave Su Yao only one hint: [The formula for the miasma-clearing potion is not difficult; you can make it with the herbs you currently have.]

Su Yao sat on Zhan Xing's back, silently opening the material pouch to check.

Because she had been busy with matters in the weapons town for a long time, Su Yao now had very few materials on hand, though there were still thirty-seven types if she counted them.

Su Yao did not blindly proceed with the synthesis but first selected the herbs with the effect of "clearing heat and detoxifying," leaving 19 kinds remaining.

Traveling takes a day, and she needs to synthesize the potion within that time.

Lina sensitively noticed the change in Su Yao's mood. She slowly moved on the back of the battle star, sat down next to Su Yao, and asked, "Is there something tricky going on? Can we help?"

Su Yao stood up and changed her sitting position and direction.

Although Zhan Xing's back was not wide, he had a broad cloud pattern, so Su Yao didn't have to worry about falling off even with such large movements.

She looked at the Robertsons and the Sharps: "I do need your help with something."

Nineteen kinds of medicinal herbs were spread out on the auspicious clouds, and Su Yao needed their help to sort them into several combinations.

Nineteen types of medicinal herbs, with no limit on quantity, can be combined in countless ways. Su Yao couldn't handle it all by herself, nor could she remember everything. She needed help.

"No problem, there's nothing else to do while flying here anyway."

With the addition of five people, Su Yao's actions became much quicker. However, due to the sheer quantity and average luck, it wasn't until they reached the entrance of the Misty Forest that Su Yao successfully concocted a rough version of the miasma-clearing potion.

From then on, the potion for dispelling miasma in the alchemy book was completely illuminated, and the full recipe was unlocked.

Su Yao let out a soft breath: "The silver lining is that the three depleted herbs are not part of the formula."

[Congratulations to the host for unlocking the achievement "Finding Joy in Hardship" title, earning 1 card draw.]

Su Yao: .....

"You! Are! Too! Much!"

[Congratulations to the host for successfully synthesizing the Miasma Removal Potion, receiving a Miasma Removal Gift Pack *1.]

[Anti-Miasma Gift Pack: Dragon Chant Continent Miasma Distribution Map and Appearance Schedule*1, Vaccine Formula for Three Major Diseases Caused by Miasma*1, Spray to Purify Air and Land of Miasma*1, Spray to Purify Animals and Plants of Miasma*1.]

"Vaccine!"

An object that had never been imagined appeared before my eyes.

[Is this system too much?]

"You're the best!" Su Yao, always adaptable, was more than willing to praise the system after getting something good. "I didn't expect there to actually be something nice."

"As long as you complete the task well, there are plenty of good things to come! (Electronic pancake.jpg)"

A string of strange characters formed a round pancake, looking extremely ugly. Su Yao glanced at it and turned off the screen.

Following the recipe, Su Yao quickly synthesized several perfect level-three miasma-clearing potions and distributed them to Zhan Xing, Robertson, and the Sharp family to drink.

"Let's hurry inside, there are people waiting for us in the shop. Except for Zhan Xing, everyone be careful not to expose your skin."

Following Su Yao's instructions, everyone got ready. Zhan Xing also pressed on with determination, swiftly flying into the forest, heading straight for the Anxin Inn.

At this moment, the poisonous miasma had already covered the upper part of the Anxin Inn, and the inn's protective shield displayed a brightness never seen before.

The battle star landed at the entrance of the hotel, and as Su Yao approached the protective shield, a line of text appeared on it: [Shield damage level 70%, please repair as soon as possible.]

"How do we repair the protective shield?" Su Yao remembered the repair materials from the inn. "Is it done with the repair materials?"

[Yes, but because the reason for the damage to the protective shield is miasma, it also needs to be accompanied by miasma-removing spray.]

Su Yao had the system automatically use repair materials for restoration, while she quickly took out a spray that could clear the miasma from the land and air and sprayed it on the protective shield. With each spray, the damage to the shield decreased by 10%. Combined with the repair materials, the protective shield was soon as good as new.

Upon entering the inn, the staff gathered in the lobby with their faces covered, remaining silent. While distributing the miasma-repelling potion to the staff, Su Yao inquired about the situation.

Ya replied, "The protective shield is good, the miasma hasn't come in. But the farmland and pasture in the backyard might not be in great shape."

When the miasma appeared, Peng San brought the little pig inside, and the potted plants and the carnivorous flower were also placed in the hall early on. These were fine, but the fields and the crops planted in them weren't so fortunate.

Su Yao nodded, first taking the spray to remove miasma from the plants and purifying the mutated little sugarcane and the carnivorous flower in the pots. As for the fields and crops outside, they would have to wait until the miasma passed to be checked.

Beside them, the Sharp family and Robertson had already met with the Percy couple. The three parties were chattering away about their respective situations, and the inn quickly became lively.

The noisy notes floated in the hotel, and Zhan Xing, for once, didn't retreat upstairs. Instead, he lazily lay on the sofa, waiting for the Peng family's three brothers to serve him fruit and snacks.

Ya and the little snake were still Su Yao's little followers, sticking by her side and moving along with her.

Felix stood in the middle of the hall, with Yaya's complaints about the miasma making her uncomfortable coming from his left ear, and the voices of Sharp and Percy insisting on giving Robertson a hug exclusive to master weapon smiths, which Robertson found distasteful, coming from his right ear.

The atmosphere was great, even "complaints" and "disdain" became a kind of joy. Felix truly experienced this feeling for the first time.

"Felix!"

Su Yao's clear voice reached Felix, and Felix looked up, meeting Su Yao's gaze five steps away.

Very well, Felix once again encountered the starlit eyes of April.

"Felix, you and Ya help me keep an eye on the hotel's shield, I'm going inside to freshen up."

"Okay." Felix nodded, calming his turbulent heart.

Since coming here, the fluctuations in his heart had become more frequent. He knew this was a good sign, but until he understood the ultimate direction of his feelings, he wouldn't rashly consider each fluctuation as the climax of the story.

This might become a clue, or it could become evidence, but it certainly won't be the climax.

……

[Shield damage level reached 30%... Shield has been repaired by store clerk Felix.]

While washing up, Su Yao heard the system broadcast and felt very reassured. "Once again, I feel fortunate in finding employees and getting along with people."

[Does the host want to draw a card? There's just one more draw to reach the small guarantee.]

The system mainly focuses on responding randomly as if the replies are related to what Su Yao said, but upon closer inspection, they aren't really connected.

Su Yao got dressed, hesitated for a moment, and still took a drag in front of the room.

This story has been unlawfully obtained without the author's consent. Report any appearances on Amazon.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder suggests that leaving it alone is an eyesore, so it's better to replace it with a good card.

Back at the hotel, it might have been the little golden dragon at work, or perhaps Felix was exerting his powers; in any case, Su Yao drew a useful new card right away.

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining a random blueprint card. A new blueprint will be automatically selected in three seconds.]

[……]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining a magic generator blueprint*1.]

"Generator!" Su Yao examined it carefully in her hands and found that the system was indeed very meticulous.

This is a generator, but not an ordinary one. Inside, it is supported not only by technology but also driven by magic.

Su Yao vaguely discerned the system's intention; it might want to promote this generator to the outside world.

As long as you understand the magic inside and collect all the materials, the rest of the construction is not difficult at all. If you show it to Percy, he might be able to make it too.

The use of electricity was called a great revolution on the original Blue Star, and now in the magical world, its impact will certainly not diminish.

Although the interior of the hotel is automatically powered, and even has solar energy, once you step outside the hotel doors, the world is shrouded in darkness.

During her short stay in the north, Su Yao felt her eyes were dazzled. The candlelight commonly used on the continent was not as clear and bright as the moonlight on a clear night. With electricity, Su Yao couldn't even imagine how beautiful the nights in this world would become!

The system is playing a very big game of chess!

However, promoting this matter is not Su Yao's current focus, because she knows that once a generator is made, there will definitely be other tasks guiding her to the next step.

She just needed to clear her mind and sigh, "The things I got today are great. With the vaccine, there's health; with the generator, there's electricity. It's all unbelievably good!"

I don't know if the system had an idea after hearing Su Yao's inner voice, or if it already had this plan, but in any case, the next second the task followed:

[Task Release: Successfully create a magic generator, task reward is a generator (baby version) blueprint *1.]

[Generator (Baby Version): A simplified version of the magic generator, its power generation effect is no less than that of a regular generator on Blue Star, but the materials and production are only one-thousandth of those of a magic generator.]

The task didn't emphasize time, so Su Yao could slowly gather materials.

"Put it away for now. You can write the materials directly on the blackboard for me, and take it down once we've collected enough."

After spending a lot of time together, the staff had more or less learned about some of the magical aspects of the inn. They sensibly never asked too many questions, which also led to Su Yao becoming increasingly adept at having the system help with the work.

Back in the hall, Robertson and the Sharp family had also been settled. Since they were staying as guests, they could only stay in the guest rooms.

The three Peng brothers were the most diligent in checking the small blackboard at the inn, and they were the first to notice when new content suddenly appeared on it.

"Is this the next step in the work?"

"Yes, but relying solely on you might not be enough; we'll also need to issue a hiring mission."

The generator's blueprints contained many strange materials that the people in the inn had never even heard of. Even for the materials they did recognize, the quantities were so vast that it was shocking.

"Thirty thousand pieces of magical ore, that would empty out a small mine." Percy stroked his little mustache, expressing doubt, "What is this for? Weapons wouldn't need that much magical ore."

"I want to create something that will astonish the entire Longyin Continent."

Su Yao shook her head, leaving Percy in suspense, which made Percy so angry that his little mustache twitched.

As soon as Sharp came downstairs, he saw the scene and said gleefully, "That's what you get for not having kids. Now, raising a disciple lets you experience what I felt as a new father!"

In response, Percy immediately rolled his eyes at him.

When they were young, Sharp and Bersa loved children very much. After having Berkeley, who was obedient and easy to care for, they wanted another one. And then they had Lina.

Percy said to Su Yao, "Don't be fooled by how well-behaved Lina is now. She was actually quite mischievous as a child. Sharp's hair is sparse now because it all fell out back then and never grew back."

Percy and Bernice began to fear children from then on, while Sharp, who had a penchant for abstraction, always felt that his good friend missing out on this suffering seemed to lack something.

"Alright, I don't have an apprentice, I'm at peace now."

Percy glanced at Sharp with disdain, not wanting to speak to him.

Bai Sha was also speechless, touched her child, and moved away from him.

Lina, who was the center of the conversation, had no intention of standing by her father's side. What did her childhood mischief have to do with her now!

Su Yao exchanged a few jokes with the others before returning to the counter. While it was still daylight, she needed to make the most of the time to compile some recent tasks and materials.

I'm sorry, but it seems like the source text is missing. Could you please provide the text you would like translated?

Gerald got in touch with a few mercenaries whose homes were at the southernmost end. After a brief discussion to understand the situation, he was ready to contact Su Yao.

Before the message was finished, Su Yao's message arrived first.

Gerard immediately stopped what he was writing, took out a piece of paper to first record all the materials sent by Su Yao, and then continued to convey the information he had received.

At the southernmost tip of the Longyin Continent, there is a small town called Yan. From the name, one can discern its characteristic hot weather. It is close to the sea, so the people make their living through fishing. However, due to the numerous mountains, there is not much farming.

Gerald asked those mercenaries if they would be willing to farm for money, and the response he received was a unanimous refusal.

The development of the fishing industry is profitable enough, so there's no need to clear land in the mountains to grow something new.

Su Yao considered the benefits of three harvests a year and the issue of typhoons, but she really hadn't thought about whether the people over there would be willing or not.

"I got a bit arrogant."

Not everyone is willing to spend time farming.

Before seeing tangible benefits, few people are willing to give up what they have to try something new.

Su Yao needed to change her strategy. She immediately sent a message to Gerald: "Post another hiring task, offering a high price to hire people to farm in Yan. You write down the important details for hiring, 200 gold coins per person per day, and the farmland will be developed by themselves. You should go along too. I'll have Zhan Xing accompany you."

Gerard was already very mature in handling things, but safety issues still needed to be considered, so it was better to have Zhan Xing go along.

The farmland was arranged like this, and Su Yao did not neglect her own tasks.

According to Percy's judgment, after practicing with a few more weapons, she would be able to start crafting third-level and fourth-level weapons. Once she completed a fourth-level metal weapon, she could use her "wandering merchant" identity to explore new small worlds.

She was certain that this identity would definitely be very useful!
