Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Chapter 609 - Millennium Parrot Bamboo Egg

~rustle~ rustle~

A bunch of trees trembled and their leaves shook as a very fast being went through them.

~sniff~ 

"Flowers GOOD!" Tim called out.

~tremble~

The ground shook as Lin Wu appeared out of it as well. 

"Oh? You're right." Lin Wu spoke as he saw the large bamboo forest that spread in front of him. 

This was the end of the normal forest and from this point onwards only the dense bamboos could be seen. Most of them were the normal green and yellow bamboo, but occasionally some rare forms like violet vein bamboo and the cicada leaf bamboo could also be seen.

"System, correct the location accordingly." Lin Wu ordered.

~DING~

——

MAP UPDATED: Re-routing completed.

Lin Wu saw the map change as the bamboo forest, along with a few other markers appeared. The location of the Bloom that Lin Wu was following was given to him by the system and was extrapolated according to the information that he had received from the different people that he had seen in the village.

But due to being passed in the oral format, there were some inaccuracies. But with the help of Tim and his great sense of smell, it became relatively easier to find the location of the Bloom.

"How far from here Tim?" Lin Wu questioned.

Tim Furrowed his brows and thought for a bit before speaking, "two kill, far." 

"Huh?" Lin Wu was utterly confused.

"How far is that?" Lin Wu asked further.

"Kill two, time get." Tim replied.

Hearing this, Lin Wu finally understood.

"Damn… you even estimate distance in the time needed for you to kill beasts." Lin Wu said, finding it rather strange but appropriate at the same time.

He looked at the map and saw the markers denoting the humans that had already reached the bamboo forest. They were wandering around, trying to look for the Fragrant Parrot Bamboo.

It was a spirit plant that was less than 5% of the entire bamboo forest and could only be found located in a few spots. They were sparsely populated but their value was very high. If it were not for the fact that it was very useful, the sects would have probably chopped all the bamboos by now.

'The ten year cycle allows it to be replenished and regrown. The people gather the flowers at this time while all the bamboos speed up this growth.' Lin Wu reckoned.

Having understood this, Lin Wu dug back into the ground as well. Tim the weasel didn't do the same through and continued onwards as he was ordered to before. 

Lin Wu was also thinking about what was special about the bloom this time.

'That old man Lu and the man on the screen were both dangerous. Though what exactly is it that they are looking for?' Lin Wu wondered.

And just while thinking like this, Lin Wu reached the area of the Bamboo forest that was populated with the Fragrant Parrot Bamboo. He peered into it and did not see any humans there, though there were certainly some signs of them being there a few days ago.

~Kikikiki~

Tim stood between a few bamboos and called out. 

~rumble~

Lin Wu's head popped out of an empty spot and gazed at the place where Tim was.

"Now what is this?" Lin Wu muttered as he looked at the fist sized flower blooming in the ground.

It let out a red aura and was the flower of a Fragrant Parrot bamboo. It looked bright red and gave out a pleasant smell.

But that was not what caught Lin Wu's attention. After all, he had already known of the appearance of the flower. What truly caught his attention was the small marble like thing growing in the center of the flower.

~KREEE~

The Weasel quickly approached the flower and ripped it out of the ground without hesitation.

Lin Wu could only shake his head at that, but also knew that this was inevitable.

"Though it does save me, the effort of testing to see what it is. Since Tim can hold it easily, then there shouldn't be any danger." Lin Wu said.

~Munch~

Tim directly bit into the flower and swallowed half of it in one go. 

~munch~

With the next bite, he finished the entire flower, including the marble that was growing at the center. But a few seconds later, his expression changed.

~PUKE~

"Ugh! Gross…" Lin Wu said as Tim vomited out a mouthful of liquid. 

~tak~tak~tak~

But along with the sound of the vomit spilling, the sound of something hard falling could also be heard. Lin Wu looked at it and saw that it was nothing but the marble like object that was growing in the center of the flower.

"Oh? Did he really meet his match?" Lin Wu was shocked.

So far, Tim has been able to eat most of the things and didn't mind anything. Thus, seeing it not only being unable to digest something but also vomiting it out this fast made Lin Wu think that this marble was certainly special.

"Let's see what it is…" Lin Wu said as a small tube extended from the side of his neck.

~WHOOSH~

A jet of water shot out of the tube and hit the marble, washing it clean in just a few seconds. The water that had just shot out was stored in his inventory, thus he had plenty of it to use whenever he needed it.

"System, scan this thing." Lin Wu ordered.

~DING~
