Chapter 56:
The crafting formula for the golden apple is remarkably simple. It involves placing an apple at the center of the crafting table and surrounding it with a circle of gold ingots. The enchanted golden apple, another variation of this formula, replaces the circle of gold ingots with gold blocks.
Fang Mo, a dedicated miner, never allows his home to run out of ores. Surprisingly, it is the apple itself in the formula that proves to be the more troublesome material for Fang Mo.
Before venturing into the Marvel world this time, Fang Mo synthesized a total of thirty-two golden apples and six enchanted golden apples. It's not that he ran out of gold; on the contrary, he ran out of apples.
Despite his wealth, Fang Mo found himself lost in thought as he stared at the golden apple before him.
"Did Tony peel the golden apple before eating it?" Fang Mo pondered absentmindedly, reaching out and carefully examining the golden apple.
The apple felt heavy in his hand, with a smooth and cool skin that resembled a finely polished metallic surface. Frankly, it looked more like gold than an apple. Fang Mo even suspected that taking a bite out of it would risk chipping his teeth.
However, considering Tony had consumed one without harm, Fang Mo tentatively opened his mouth and took a bite.
With a satisfying crunch, Fang Mo bit off a large piece of the apple flesh. Contrary to its metallic appearance, the flesh of the golden apple was delicate and crystal-clear white.
While chewing, the crispy flesh released a sweet and tangy juice that instantly filled Fang Mo's mouth. Its rich aroma, encompassing all the flavors of apples, rushed into his nostrils, causing Fang Mo's eyes to light up involuntarily.
Soon, the entire golden apple was devoured by Fang Mo. Shortly after, he felt a slight itching sensation in his body, but it vanished within a minute.
It was as if an invisible veil had been lifted, making the whole world appear more vivid. Fang Mo experienced the presence of dust floating in the air, a gentle breeze blowing through the grass outside the door, and even a small insect crawling on the windowsill. He quietly savored this marvelous feeling, where everything seemed within his sight and reach.
[Achievement Obtained: Overpowered]
A notification sound rang in Fang Mo's mind before long. It was an achievement granted to players in the game after consuming an Enchanted Golden Apple. But at this moment, Fang Mo seemed to understand why it was named "Overpowered."
"This feeling is indeed quite pleasant..." Fang Mo took a deep breath and then, with a thought, controlled Steve to retrieve another Enchanted Golden Apple.
Receiving the Enchanted Golden Apple, Fang Mo witnessed a flash of white light as it materialized, and he immediately began devouring it. Soon, another Enchanted Golden Apple vanished into his stomach, filling the air with its enchanting aroma, and the cool and transparent sensation flowed through Fang Mo's body once more.
However, this time, Fang Mo didn't experience the clear consciousness sensation.
"So, that's how it is," Fang Mo nodded subconsciously, realizing, "It seems that this item, like the heart-shaped herb and the serum, is a one-time-use item and can't be reused like the Essence Berries."
With that thought in mind, Fang Mo casually placed the golden apple back into the Alchemy Bag. However, as he opened the bag, his attention was suddenly drawn to the Void Ring inside. In that moment, a new idea emerged in his mind.
