Chapter 163 Gathering Information
"Okay, then may I ask what I need in exchange for this Marrow Cleansing Pill? I'm on the Beastman Continent, and it's currently winter, all covered in ice and snow, so some things are hard to find. I definitely don't have any spirit stones or spirit herbs."
Since Ruan Mianmian knew that there were no harmful effects from taking this Marrow Cleansing Pill, she wanted to let Sen try it.
I just don't know what the other party needs to exchange for it.
After a moment of silence, the other party spoke, "I need a rare item called the Snow Lotus. It only grows on the mountaintops of extremely cold places and only blooms during the coldest part of winter. If you can find the Snow Lotus, I am willing to exchange it for a Marrow Cleansing Pill."
Ruan Mianmian's heart sank. Snow lotus flowers were extremely rare, and finding them was like finding a needle in a haystack.
But for Mori's sake, she decided to take the risk.
"Okay, give me some time. If I find it, I'll come and exchange it with you."
After speaking, Ruan Mianmian logged out of the trading platform.
"Host, the snow lotus that the other party mentioned should be available here, but I'm afraid it won't be easy to obtain."
Ruan Mianmian was well aware of the system's voice.
This thing sounds like a very precious medicinal herb or plant. If it were easy to obtain, the system would have already told her to go find it.
It's important to know that upgrading rare medicinal herbs is also a form of upgrade.
However, the system didn't say anything even though it knew there were such circumstances, which proves that this thing is either too far away from her or extremely rare.
Ruan Mianmian sighed inwardly, thinking that good things are just not easy to get!
But she did not give up hope, after all, she still had the powerful assistance of the system.
So she asked the system, "No matter what, we still need to look for it first. System, can you tell me the general direction or location?"
The system hesitated for a moment, then replied somewhat uncertainly, "As far as I know, snow lotuses may grow on the peaks of snow-capped mountains in the north. However, I cannot confirm the exact location. Moreover, the environment there is extremely harsh, fraught with various dangers, such as low temperatures, lack of oxygen, and avalanches. I really do not recommend that you take the risk."
Hearing the system's words, Ruan Mianmian frowned, but quickly relaxed and laughed, saying, "Haha, thank you for your concern! However, I won't give up easily! Since there's hope of finding the snow lotus, I'll definitely try my best. As for the danger... well, I'll handle it carefully. After all, nothing ventured, nothing gained!"
Then, thinking of the raging blizzard outside, she shook her head helplessly and continued, "Given the current situation, I'm afraid I'll have a hard time even getting out of this plain. So, if the place where the snow lotus is located is covered in snow all year round, then perhaps I can consider going there again in the summer, when the weather is relatively warmer, which might increase my chances of success." As she finished speaking, a determined glint flashed in her eyes.
So, in the days that followed, Ruan Mianmian inquired about information everywhere.
She first sought out Zhi and Hui, asking them about the situation at the northernmost snow-capped mountain peak.
Then he went to find experienced orcs like Yong and Daman, who had traveled all over the country, hoping to get some useful information from them.
However, when everyone heard "the northernmost snow-capped mountain peak," they all frowned, indicating that they did not know the answer.
It is said that the area is covered in snow all year round, and legend has it that a mysterious divine beast guards the region, so ordinary orcs dare not approach it easily.
Hui added, "That place is too far away from us. I've only heard older people mention it, but I've never been there."
Daman and Yong said, "Neither of us has been to such a remote place; we've only heard that ordinary orcs can't even get there."
After listening to everyone's words, Ruan Mianmian felt a little regretful, but she kept the trip in mind and decided that she must go there if she had the chance in the summer.
After all, that place sounds very mysterious, and who knows what interesting discoveries might be made there?
Thinking of this, she was filled with anticipation again.
