SCAN COMPLETE: Map updated

——

Once the notification appeared, nil Wu felt relieved. He did not want to see another area where the system would not work, or be limited due to the map. Lin Wu reckoned that if the system could work in the Dread Coil Marsh, it would not have taken him two months that it took him now, to reach this point.

"Show me the updated map." Lin Wu spoke.

On the map, Lin Wu could see the two extra layers that had been added for the area. One layer was for the ground, one for the sky and the final one for the underground. In the underground layer, six more sub layers were present on the map.

This showed how much of the area the system needed to scan and why it needed so much time. But that was not all, as the system would only take this much time if there were too many things in it, or if there were complex, high energy objects present.

Any of those could either be a fortune, or misfortune for Lin Wu. 

"Let's see what's exactly below this." Lin Wu muttered as he browsed the map.

On it, he saw that the ground was only about thirty meters deep. Once he went below that, there was just water. The more shocking thing was that this underground lake was spread in an area of over three kilometers. 

Then from the western part of it, a branch expanded which went far beyond the limits of the map. Lin Wu could not clearly tell where it went, but he had a good guess about what this pond or lake was.

"An underground lake connected to the ocean, huh?" Lin Wu guessed.

He went through the layers and realized that the water was still going beyond the sixth sublayer of the map.

'The lake is deeper than the range of the system…' Lin Wu understood.

But having learned, this Lin Wu knew that what the Copper Hide Weasel must have said was probably false… or right according to the Copper Hide Weasel.

"Hang on… what if the tree he meant…" Lin Wu suddenly had an idea.

~Poke~

"Hey you! Wake up!" Lin Wu shook the Copper Hide Weasel.

"NO! Sleep!" The Copper Hide Weasel yelled before falling asleep again in an instant.

"This beast…" Lin Wu shook his head before extending his tail and picking up the Copper Hide Weasel who was still asleep.

~splatter~

"There you go." Lin Wu said after throwing the Copper Hide Weasel into the lake.

~SKREEE~

The Copper Hide Weasel let out a loud screech due to the rude awakening. One moment it was happily sleeping and in the next, it was wet and about to drown. 

~shua~

It flew out of the water and landed on the ground.

~Shua~

It quickly shook off all the water from its body and looked at Lin Wu angrily.

"Finally awake, huh. Now tell me what kind of tree did you see." Lin Wu questioned in a stern tone.

"A TREE!" the Copper Hide Weasel replied.

"Describe its shape!" Lin Wu yelled back.

The Copper Hide Weasel narrowed its eyes as it tried to remember the tree. It thought hard for about three minutes before starting to speak. It was speaking in the same broken words, but Lin Wu was slowly able to piece the information together.

'So a tree with many large circular leaves that floated on top of the water. Long stems extending from the water while also being attached to the leaves. Then the stem having a single large at the top with hundreds of petals.

And… the color is blue? No dark blue…' Lin Wu analyzed.

After hearing the entire explanation Lin Wu felt like his head would explode. The Copper Hide Weasel was making little sense and picking the right information from its words was also hard.

It was like asking a toddler to explain what something looked like. While they would speak simple words, and they were easy to put together. They would skip on a lot of details thus making it had to understand.

~Sigh~

"System can you analyze this and see if your data banks have something matching to this." Lin Wu asked.

~DING~

——

PARAMETRIC ANALYSIS: Initiated

PARAMETERS SELECTED: Manual host input 

INITIATING ANALYSIS: Please wait patiently

——

Lin Wu waited for the system to complete its analysis and saw the Copper Hide Weasel staring at him.

"Food." It said.

"Go eat those spirit herbs and flowers, I'm not giving you more." Lin Wu denied.

~krrr~

The Copper Hide Weasel growled in annoyance before going to munch on some flowers. It ate the spirit herbs in the area for about fifteen minutes, managing to wipe out a quarter of the spirit herb population.

Till then Lin Wu looked around the area according to the map and gathered more spirit herbs for himself and for the organization. Though he still found the fact that no beast came here strange. He could not even see normal insects and animals here, which meant that there was something that prevented them from coming here or scared them perhaps.

While doing this Lin Wu was reminded of the Silver Beak Sky soar eagle.

"Ah, I almost forgot about her. She must still be searching for the Stone feather." Lin Wu muttered.

He realized he had not given her a jade slip made by himself to communicate and could not inform her right now. 

~Sigh~

"I'll do it the next time I meet her. She's out of the range of the system anyway…" Lin Wu muttered to himself.

More time passed and by now the Copper Hide Weasel had finished half of the spirit herbs in the area. The beast had eaten quite a fortune in spirit herbs if one tabulated their value. But just when it was about to eat a rather large fleshy petaled flower, the ground trembled.

~Ripple~

The lake's water started to shake too and Lin Wu wondered what was happening. His spirit sense spread around and he saw something large approaching from the depths of the lake.
