I Live on the Land in Global Games-Chapter 369 - 361: Soft Bones Potion (Two-in-One - )_3

"Without bones, a corpse can’t stand up, much less take flight."

Moreover, according to Mu Ying’s recent observations using the Detecting Skill, Blood Crows also drink the blood flowing through the Corpse Bone Meat Forest, which is simply an excellent pathway for contagion."

There’s another advantage, which is the mountainous pile of bird corpses and bones in the forest, the birthplace of Blood Crows. Every time a Blood Crow dies, another one is born from there."

That place is also surrounded by streams of blood, and should the poison spread there, it could directly obliterate the birthplace of the Blood Crows."

Because the Soft Bones Potion targets not purely the skeletal structures of living creatures, but all small-sized bones."

And though it is contagious, it does not cause high damage to other life forms."

Mu Ying was so satisfied that she immediately paid the Magic Potion Teachers double the remaining balance and sent it back to them."

The herbal medicine needed for the Soft Bones Potion, aside from some common ingredients, consisted mainly of herbs Mu Ying had never seen before. To practice cultivating the main herbs needed for the Soft Bones Potion, she borrowed a small piece of land on Fish Tail Island from Senior Sister Rosie and temporarily moved there."

The key points for cultivating the herbal medicines were detailed in the manual sent by the Magic Potion Teachers. It was not difficult for Mu Ying to learn."

After more than two months, she had not only become adept at cultivating the herbs but had also found refining the Soft Bones Potion rather easy."

She even developed a new use for this potion."

It was for breeding small fish."

After the fish grew up, she would catch them, spray a little Soft Bones Potion on them, and then put them back into the water. After keeping them there for three days, she could harvest a boneless fish that had just died, fresh and without any bones."

The toxins from the Soft Bones Potion inside the fish’s body had already erupted, leaving the flesh unaffected. Once cooked, there were no hidden dangers at all."

Fish without bones felt a little strange to eat at first, but the more one ate, the more enjoyable it became."

However, because it was a contagious poison, even under normal circumstances, with no blood present, the toxins did not spread easily. To be on the safe side, Mu Ying decided not to sell this potion."

In her spare time, between refining potions, she set up a large fish tank, bought some small spiny sea fish to keep inside, sprayed them with the Soft Bones Potion to turn them into boneless fish, and then sold them at the Witch Grocery Store."

The boneless fish were deeply loved by the mermaids of Crystal City."

Unlike the Mermaid Clan in the Emerald World, such as Lily, who had very strong teeth and digestive systems and could eat fish without having to spit out the bones, chewing and swallowing them directly,"

But the Emerald World mermaids, like humans and witches, had to spit out fish bones while eating, so the boneless fish were truly a blessing for them."

From then on, the Witch Grocery Store had a new specialty product, and directly behind the yard, they expanded a fishpond covered by a bubble shield, specifically for making boneless fish."

This was much more profitable than selling Soft Bones Potions or potion recipes, as it represented a long-term business."

It wasn’t until Mu Ying had completely mastered the methods of planting the herbal medicine for the Soft Bones Potion and the means of concocting the potion that she transferred out a portion of the seeds for those herbs."

She had already carved out a small Medicine Field in the Plantation for these herbs and started planting them as soon as the transfer was made."

But even with the growth promoted by Magic Power, the herbs had a relatively long growth cycle, requiring at least half a month to complete a round."

Although Mu Ying was eager to produce a finished product to eliminate the threat of Blood Crows and Vampires to her territory that had persisted for so long,

Rushing things wouldn’t help, especially at this critical juncture; the more important it was for her to stay calm and collected."

Otherwise, there could be unforeseen complications, resulting in failure after coming so close to success."

She forced herself to calm down, to be patient, and to maintain her daily routine, watching the tides morning and evening, cultivating marine plants at the Undersea Planting Camp in the morning, and observing the tides on the seashore at night."

She occasionally gave Sharon a chance encounter, exchanging a few words or a provocation."

To outsiders, there seemed to be no difference."

Even so, to avoid startling the enemy, she reduced the frequency of her detections on Sharon."

However, each afternoon, aside from learning new Spells such as the Water Control Skill and the Stone Skin Technique, practicing her Skills, and tending to the herbal medicine, she spent the rest of her time perfecting her plan against the Blood Crows and Vampires."

From its initial draft to the daily additions of new ideas and considering all possible contingencies and countermeasures, she refined the plan bit by bit."

As the plan became ever more comprehensive and perfect, Mu Ying’s confidence grew."

And all the while, the target of her machinations, Sharon and her seven servants, didn’t have the slightest clue."

Mu Ying had already gained the upper hand."
