The Gamer who traveled to Honkai: Star Rail

Meanwhile, Stelle pointed at the Ambrosial Arbor root system nearby: "But there are so many of these roots here. Should be able to make a lot, right?"

Pei Guang shook his head: "The quantity is limited. This consumable needs the flower bud to craft. But we can see what these regular roots can yield."

A few minutes later...

Originally, there were four large flower buds, but now they were all gone. Pei Guang had made three full-restoration coffees, leaving one behind for further experiments. As for the regular Ambrosial Arbor root systems? After some experimentation, they were able to produce something as well.

And what they produced? Pei Guang could only sum it up in one word: amazing!

How amazing, you ask? When combined with regular equipment effects, the ordinary Ambrosial Arbor root system could add an enchantment effect that increases health regeneration.

Pei Guang had been testing the right ratios, and from his attempts, he estimated that around ten 1-cm³ pieces of the Ambrosial Arbor root system could max out the health regeneration effect on equipment. Any more, and the result would be a pile of black ash. Pei Guang tried to craft with the black ash, but unfortunately, it turned out to be a non-craftable material, so he just threw it into a trash bag.

Stelle: "Oh no~ Ah Guang, more black ash again."

Pei Guang: "It's fine, just pack it up!"

March 7th: "Not good! The Ambrosial Arbor roots are running away!"

Pei Guang swiftly cut through the roots with a single slash. The remaining roots whipped through the air, and Pei Guang quickly chopped them into pieces, adding various strange items and continuing his crafting process.

Meanwhile, Bailu, who was applying her knowledge of pharmacology, was attempting to write a pill formula. Once March 7th had finished her experiments, she was preparing for another one, but when Bailu saw the state of the roots, her face changed dramatically.

Bailu: "Not good! The Ambrosial Arbor is gone! The whole area's been chopped down!"

Pei Guang: "Good stuff! Good stuff! There aren't enough experimental materials here. I remember there are some gigantic roots by the Creation Furnace, right? Let's head over there, I'm already eager to try it out!"

At this moment, Stelle quickly began to clear the battlefield, saying, "Look! There's a big flower bud near the Creation Furnace!"

March 7th: "It used to be Ambrosial Arbor's, but now it's ours! Let's go, let's go!"

Pei Guang: "Bailu, hurry up! Let's move quickly. That flower bud, along with the nearby Ambrosial Arbor roots, is all ours now!"

Meanwhile, on the other side, Welt and Tingyun, under the guidance of Master Gongshu, had already arrived at the square in front of the Creation Furnace. Near the roots of the Ambrosial Arbor, a giant flower bud was waiting to bloom.

As Welt and his group drew near, the flower bud that the Ambrosial Arbor had nurtured to protect its roots suddenly bloomed.

The blooming flower sent a large cloud of dust into the air, and from within the cloud, a deer-shaped figure emerged.

Upon seeing this, Welt's expression turned serious, but as he was focused, Pei Guang, Stelle, and March 7th came running up, making a lot of noise.

When they arrived, they saw the flower bud had vanished, and in its place stood the Abundant Ebon Deer. Upon seeing this, March 7th muttered, "It's over, our treasure is gone."

Pei Guang, however, observed the Abundant Ebon Deer and pondered, "Actually, it's not gone… it's evolved!"

Stelle: "It turned into an animal, what should we do?"

Pei Guang gazed at the Abundant Ebon Deer, saliva nearly dripping from his mouth.

"Stelle! You don't understand, the deer has so many treasures. Back in my hometown, deer antlers, horns, fur, as well as their blood, hearts, tails, meat, brains, bones, and internal organs—everything's a treasure, all precious medicinal ingredients! It's not gone, it's just become more valuable! This Ambrosial Arbor creature is generous, knowing we were coming, and gave us a big gift!"

Meanwhile, Welt warned them, "Be careful! This thing is tough!"

Bailu peeked out: "It's okay, with me here! Let me show you what's in my gourd…"

Bailu controlled the coffee, sending it flying toward the Abundant Ebon Deer's mouth. This time, she used enough for ten people, but when the coffee entered its mouth, the Abundant Ebon Deer immediately spat it out.

Seeing this, Pei Guang placed Bailu's trash can down on the ground. "Everyone get ready! Let's go all out! Boss ahead!"

Stelle pulled out her club: "I'll attack its head!"

Pei Guang: "I'll chop its legs, bones, meat, and internal organs."

March 7th pulled out a pot: "I'll help you guys cook it up on the side."

Welt: "This enemy is really strong, don't you think we should…"

Before Welt could finish his sentence, Pei Guang led the charge, and the trio ran forward noisily. Seeing them approach, the Abundant Ebon Deer stomped its foot, and dozens of Ambrosial Arbor roots emerged from the ground, each possessing a different powerful ability.

However, as soon as the roots appeared, Pei Guang swung his sword, slashing through them with ease. Thanks to the sword's infinite durability and enhanced true damage, all the roots were severed in a single strike, and as their power dissipated, Pei Guang quickly stored them in his inventory.

Stelle and March 7th moved swiftly, one setting up the War-flaming lance, the other lifting the cauldron. Bailu also quietly approached, carrying the trash can above her head, positioning herself next to the pot.

But the Abundant Ebon Deer wasn't to be underestimated. 

As it saw Pei Guang's group approach, it aimed at March 7th and prepared to charge with its head down. However, just as it was about to launch its powerful physical attack, Pei Guang raised his middle finger and used taunt.

"Your grandpa's here!"

The Abundant Ebon Deer, having no intellect, was just a defensive lifeform created by the Ambrosial Arbor roots to protect their energy absorption. Therefore, it fell for Pei Guang's taunt.

As it charged toward Pei Guang, it changed its course and headed directly for him. Pei Guang quickly pulled out the trash can lid and, just as it was about to collide with him, swung the lid in a perfect parry.

In that instant, the Abundant Ebon Deer felt a ringing in its head, but just then, Stelle, acting in perfect coordination, swung her club and struck the back of its head.

DANG!

The Abundant Ebon Deer's head was knocked forward by the impact.

Seizing the moment, Pei Guang once again swung his weapon to complete the parry. The deer's head took two parries and a heavy strike, making it dizzy and causing its body to lose control.

At that moment, Pei Guang's sword flashed, and the Abundant Ebon Deer's antlers, legs, and tail were all chopped off and stored in the communal inventory. Stelle, quick on her feet, immediately pulled out a chainsaw and began cutting into the Abundant Ebon Deer's body.
