"Hello, sir! Would you like to experience the speciality of Pushpam?" The sweet aroma of honey drifted towards Alex, enticing his senses, while a scrawny street vendor retrieved a glass jar from his bag. The jar contained a thick, viscous liquid. As the street vendor shook the jar in front of Alex, the liquid slowly and gracefully swirled to one side. "This is honey, gathered from the vast central plains. It is produced by a rare species of magical bees that can only be found here. If this is your…-

'A day was required to dismantle the Noble Trader Association completely. Afterwards, I rested for two days to recover from my injury. Subsequently, I apprehended those who had collaborated with the evil organisation. It was a day well spent. Following that, I waited for two more days before accepting Kalina's invitation to come to the Blue Gem City. To summarise everything, it hadn't even been a week since I first appeared as the white-robed man.' 'And yet, in this short time span, someone had…

As per his usual routine, Alex's first stop upon arriving in the blue-gem city was to meet Dhairya, his business manager and fellow tribesman. Dhairya promptly presented Alex with the items he had previously requested. Alex delicately held the metal cards and the newly acquired mask, examining them closely. However, he couldn't help but feel perplexed by the appearance of the mask. He turned it around in his hand, attempting to decipher the purpose behind its unique design. "Are there no openings…

With a total of ninety mana cores already distributed symmetrically across his body, Alex realised the need to create ten additional mana cores to enhance his strength and reach the pinnacle of tier 3. Determined to progress, he wasted no time and initiated the process. He took out the mana stones he found in the elder's spatial ring and placed them near him. After that, he took out a mana-dense herb and consumed it. The mana stones, akin to naturally occurring crystal or jadeite formations,…

The allure of the gene upgrade function was so captivating that Alex found himself unable to sleep until he tried it. Upon discovering that he could enhance the genes of the animals within the farm, he made a firm decision to dedicate more of his time to the farm. Excitedly, Alex made his way to the research pod and accessed its menu, directing himself towards the gene upgrade function. Inside there, he saw the only available option.

The research pod, despite its fancy name, resembled a simple, large white barrel. Instead of an intricate, futuristic design with multiple complex components seamlessly integrated, it appeared to be a singular piece crafted through 3D printing technology beyond human comprehension. A small floating display appeared on one side, providing the necessary information and interface for operation. Alex walked towards it and opened the lid. The research pod was filled with a slimy liquid that adjusted…

The battle that unfolded upon the shores left a clear mark, transforming the area into an unrecognisable wasteland. The pristine sandy beach, once a haven of serenity, was mercilessly swallowed by the relentless expansion of the ocean. All that remained were vast pits and craters, scattered across the desolate landscape. The once majestic palm trees, which adorned the shoreline with their vibrant greenery, now stood as shattered and decimated stumps. The battlefield had stripped away every trace of…

Although slightly disappointed that he couldn't slay the monster with his hands, Alex mustered the determination to investigate the corpse lying before him. Despite his mental exhaustion, he approached the body with a calm resolve. The first corpse he encountered was that of the monster itself, and the other one belonged to a human. Alex quickly realised that the corpse of the human had an uncanny resemblance with the elder of the thousand-headed serpent tribe. "Did the snake kill him?"…

As always, desperation fueled Alex, driving him to think and innovate. His mind raced as he attempted to solve the problem known as the monster. While observing the monster's internal breakdown, he deftly evaded its attacks by utilising teleportation. Within a minute, he depleted the mana from twenty of his cores, which he had assigned specifically for teleportation. Exhaustion engulfed him as he felt the danger intensify. Retreat was not an option, nor was he inclined to consider it. Entering the…

The plan was simple, and its execution was swift. Kalina adeptly caught the monster's attention, its voracious appetite making it gaze at her lithe and graceful figure as if she was a delectable feast. The monster's salivating mouth made it clear that it eagerly awaited the opportunity to devour Kalina alive. With a resounding "BOOOM!" the earth shattered and caved in as the monstrous creature made its initial move. Its colossal body, propelled by thick legs, barreled forward like a mighty cannonball…
