Chapter 480: Chapter 273: Natural Elf: 5-Colored Corundum Pool
With that, Fang Ze looked at Zhong Yi and said seriously.
"I feel like we really hit it off. Let’s add each other as friends."
"My strength just rose to the Fifth Level, so I’ll be staying there for a while."
"If our Levels are similar, maybe we’ll have a chance to explore new worlds together in the future."
Zhong Yi actually preferred interacting with people who were as open and friendly as Fang Ze.
"I just reached the Second Level a short while ago. The Fifth Level is still a long way off."
"We probably won’t get a chance to explore new worlds together until after Sixth Level."
Zhong Yi’s words made Fang Ze freeze for a moment, and he stared at Zhong Yi in disbelief.
’He’s already a Creator when he’s only just reached the Second Level?’
But after he added Zhong Yi as a friend, he saw the two glittering badges displayed on Zhong Yi’s personal account.
After a brief moment of shock, a smile appeared on Fang Ze’s face.
"Doesn’t the fact that you obtained the Second Level Secret Realm Monopolizer Badge say enough about your fortune?"
"In the billions of worlds in the Ecological Realm, only one person can possess this kind of badge at a time."
When Zhong Yi added Fang Ze as a friend, he discovered that Fang Ze’s personal account had one more badge than his own.
Not only did he have the Zhenxing C Level Talent Badge and a B Level Badge, but also a Fourth Level Secret Realm Blaster Badge.
The Blast Killer Badge and the Monopolizer Badge are considered to be of the same class.
The fact that Fang Ze had this badge meant he had killed the most contestants in a Fourth Level Secret Realm hosted by the Wanyu Gambling Company.
This badge told Zhong Yi that Fang Ze was not only an exceptionally talented Creator, but that his power also placed him at the very peak of the pyramid among experts of the same Tier.
"Zhong Yi, with a Talent like yours, we don’t need to bother with just exploring new worlds."
"We can make a pact to go to the Outer Battlefield, earn our glory, and expand the borders of the Ecological Realm."
With that, Fang Ze handed an Energy Transmission Platform to Zhong Yi.
"Inside is a mask just like the one I’m wearing right now."
"This mask will blur your features when you wear it, making it impossible for others to make out your face."
"It will only leave a vague, unremarkable impression in the minds of others."
If he were to attend events like today’s in the future, he could choose to wear this Fool’s Mask.
"Whether you use it or not, consider this mask a gift from me for our first meeting."
In his past life, Zhong Yi had several extremely close childhood friends.
The friends he made after starting college never felt as genuine as the ones from his childhood.
His current interaction with Fang Ze felt very similar to how he used to feel around those childhood friends.
In his previous life, it was difficult for humans to break through the hundred-year lifespan limit.
Therefore, in that short hundred-year period, life was divided into four stages: childhood, youth, adulthood, and old age.
But after Zhong Yi transmigrated to this world, one’s lifespan would continuously break its shackles as one’s strength increased.
’If you went by lifespan, he and Fang Ze probably wouldn’t even reach the childhood stage.’
’They’d just be two babies!’
At that thought, Zhong Yi quickly shook his head, dispelling the idea from his mind.
Fang Ze had just given him a gift, but Zhong Yi had nothing to give in return.
Having been in the Guardian Beast World for less than four months, Zhong Yi really hadn’t accumulated many resources.
He also hadn’t stored any items on the Virtual Source Network beforehand using an Energy Transmission Platform.
After Zhong Yi took the transmission platform from him, Fang Ze clapped him on the shoulder in a friendly, familiar way.
"Ah Yi, it’s about time you go spin the Qi Fortune Wheel!"
"Let’s go over there together."
Hearing this, Zhong Yi thought for a moment before saying to Fang Ze.
"Wait for me a second, I’ll be right back."
With that, Zhong Yi left the Virtual Source Network and, back in reality, used the Energy Transmission Platform to retrieve the Fool’s Mask Fang Ze had just given him.
The Fool’s Mask, held in his hand, had the feel of a real, physical object.
But it looked like a hazy, swirling gray shadow, like a wisp of mist that could conceal all truth.
Zhong Yi could feel an extremely profound power contained within the Fool’s Mask.
This power felt to Zhong Yi as if it even transcended Rule Authority.
Just as Zhong Yi was about to put the Fool’s Mask from Fang Ze on his face,
the Soul-Controlling Flower rooted in Zhong Yi’s soul suddenly pulsed.
A large number of ribbon-like, shimmering white floral threads emerged from Zhong Yi’s soul and wrapped around the Fool’s Mask.
The Soul-Controlling Flower had always treasured these floral threads, often using its roots to dip into the secreted Flowing Soul Soil to clean the writhing filaments.
But this time, the Soul-Controlling Flower proactively severed more than ten of its floral threads, allowing them to entwine around the Fool’s Mask.
The Energy contained within the Soul-Controlling Flower seemed to be from the same source as the Energy in the Fool’s Mask.
These floral threads merged into the Fool’s Mask, changing its appearance.
On the Fool’s Mask, which was like a ball of gray mist, tiny flower buds began to bloom here and there.
As the ribbons continued to merge with it, these buds began to quietly blossom.
This sudden change did not alter the Fool’s Mask’s effects.
But it did remove the sensation of a foreign Energy covering his face when Zhong Yi used the Fool’s Mask.
As the floral threads of the Soul-Controlling Flower merged into the Fool’s Mask,
on a boundless green field, a figure seated on a blood-red throne suddenly opened its eyes.
