522 Chapter 542, the present was different from the past
However, apart from the method, materials were also needed to make the telepathic scroll.
Meng Jingtian took a look and saw that there were only three types of materials needed: Phoenix feather paper, Inkstone Ink Wash, and time.
The first two types were easy to deal with. The system explained that only the southern family of Vermilion Bird City had the manufacturing technology for the Phoenix Feather Paper.
Although only the southern family had the manufacturing process, the southern family was actually very easy to find. Apart from producing the Phoenix Feather Paper, they also produced other types of paper. They had quite a bit of influence in Vermilion Bird City and were developing quite well.
Moreover, Vermilion Bird City was now the territory of the Canglong Kingdom. As a citizen of the Canglong Kingdom, the southern family was naturally a believer of Meng Jingtian.
The second type of ink was the type that Di Jiang had given him for the quest.
The third type was difficult.
Di Jiang was born with the ability to control time. Because this ability was too abnormal, it was restricted by the system in the game.
But even so, his strength was enough to be used to create the telepathic scroll.
But Meng Jingtian didn’t have the ability to control time!
He had obtained the method, but he didn’t expect to be stopped here in the end.
Meng Jingtian couldn’t help but sigh a few times, but he suddenly saw a row of things in his backpack that didn’t have the system’s data.
World tree’s origin strength.
Looking at these things, Meng Jingtian’s eyes suddenly lit up. In the blink of an eye, he thought of the world tree’s origin strength. It could even form a world, and a world without time couldn’t be considered a world, at most, it was a dead space.
The origin strength of these world trees should contain the strength of time, right?
Meng Jingtian was eager to give it a try and was ready to test it, but he was still short of Phoenix Feather. He had given di Jiang the inkstone washing ink, so he had to find it again.
Meng Jingtian was about to leave, but he inadvertently glanced at di Jiang’s corpse by his feet. He could not help but pause, and a light suddenly flashed in his mind.
“That pit just now...”Meng Jingtian stopped and looked down at Di Jiang. After a moment of hesitation, he dragged Di Jiang’s corpse to the back of the mountain and threw it into the pit that he had just dug.
It seemed to be... just right!
This guy, that quest clearly wanted him to dig his grave!
Why?
Meng Jingtian couldn’t understand. You are an NPC. Even if you die, you will still come back to life, right? Why do you need me to dig his grave.
Why would you even bother digging your own grave?
Meng Jingtian’s face was gloomy, but he still let bygones be bygones. Not only did he throw dijiang into the pit, he also buried him.
“Ding! NPC Dijiang’s friendliness towards you has increased by 20!”
“DAMN!”
“Is he a corpse? Even if he’s dead, his friendliness has increased!”
When he suddenly heard this system notification, Meng Jingtian couldn’t help but take a few steps back in shock. He came to his senses and grumbled.
Although i dug a hole to bury you, I’m the one who killed you. What is this?
Meng Jingtian shook his head and summoned Dark Phoenix. He returned to the swamp of death and collected a lot of ink-washing inkstone. Then, he flew out of the forest to the nearest city and teleported to Vermilion Bird City.
The Nan family was a big family in Vermilion Bird City. Meng Jingtian randomly asked an NPC and found a shop under the Nan family.
“Shopkeeper, order me some Phoenix Feather Paper!”Meng Jingtian came to the shop and directly said to the NPC shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper was busy sorting out all kinds of paper. When he heard the sound, he raised his head, and almost immediately, his whole body lowered.
“Greetings... Greetings, Lord God!”The old shopkeeper, who was in his fifties or sixties, shouted at Meng Jingtian excitedly, not even daring to raise his head.
At this moment, although Meng Jingtian was also a god, it could be said that he was a completely different god.
Previously, he was just a nameless god.
Npcs knew that he was a god, but they didn’t know what God or whatever it was. They didn’t know what benefits it would bring if they worshipped him.
It was only because he was a god that they gave him some respect.
But now, Meng Jingtian was the main god of the Azure Dragon Country. He was a powerful god of war that was passed down among the people. As the main god, he also cared about the weather, farming, and culture... in short, he cared about everything in the Azure Dragon Country.
How could a follower not worship such a God when his real body was revealed?
The corner of Meng Jingtian’s mouth twitched. He only wanted to do business with this shopkeeper. He didn’t expect the shopkeeper to only want to worship a god!
“Get up, Get Up! I want to order some Phoenix feather paper from you!”Meng Jingtian said again.
The shopkeeper was a little frightened and quickly replied, “No problem! No problem! The Phoenix Feather Paper is the signature craft of our Nan family. It’s just...”
As he spoke, the shopkeeper looked embarrassed and a little embarrassed.
“The Phoenix feather paper needs real Phoenix Feathers. It’s rare in the human world, so...”
They usually made the Phoenix feather paper using Demon Beast Feathers with Phoenix bloodline.
But now, the one who came to ask for the paper was Meng Jingtian. How could the shopkeeper dare to use such a inferior product to fool him?
“That’s Easy!”Meng Jingtian waved his hand and didn’t mind the shopkeeper’s embarrassment.
Phoenix Feathers? He had a phoenix, how could he not have Phoenix Feathers?
It was just that Dark Phoenix was a mutated Phoenix.
Meng Jingtian still summoned Dark Phoenix. At this time, Dark Phoenix had turned into a suitable size and looked like a big eagle.
Meng Jingtian directly plucked a few feathers from under its wings.
Dark Phoenix cried out and flapped its wings, wanting to crawl into the space of its mount.
...
The shop was in a state of chaos.
Fortunately, Meng Jingtian managed to pull out ten black phoenix feathers in a short while, which allowed the Dark Phoenix to return to the space of its mount.
After the feathers left the Dark Phoenix’s body, they grew a little bigger, like the size of a banana leaf. The feathers were pitch-black and shiny, which made people’s eyes light up. It was obvious that they were treasures!
“If all of them are made into Phoenix feather paper, it will take about ten days. You See...”the shopkeeper looked up at Meng Jingtian cautiously.
“Sure. I’ll pick them up in ten days!”Meng Jingtian nodded.
Then, Meng Jingtian left the paper shop of the Nan Family and teleported from the Vermilion Bird City to the white water city through the teleportation portal.
This city was very remote, but it was not small. It was a grade-2 small city, a grade-2 small city at the border.
The moment they teleported here, they could feel the tense atmosphere of war. It was completely different from the bustling vermilion bird city.
Not only were the npcs in the city, but even the players in the city seemed to be in a hurry as they walked. It was as if they were infected.
The players were becoming more and more integrated into this world.
Perhaps it was because they couldn’t go offline anymore, but the speed at which they integrated seemed to have increased.
...
If one did not look at the information, one would not even be able to tell the difference between players and npcs.
Meanwhile, in white water city, a large group of players was gathered in the open square near the teleportation portal. From their discipline and equipment, one could tell that they were a group of Guild players.
If one cast another probing skill, one would know that these were all members of Canglan City’s Guild.
