Electricity! I need Electricity!

Thank goodness for the Luminous Flower, the decoration on the shoulder of the Butler Golem. Just strike the seed of the Luminous Flower, and a flower bulb-like thing would appear, emitting a soft white light, extremely dazzling. Inside the cave, there were old friends - bats. After killing two of them, a bat wing and a bat eye were dropped, the latter when combined with an arrow seemed to be capable of auto-tracking - it's a godsend for bird hunting! Leonard craved to roast a pigeon, but he wasn't sure when he could fulfill this wish. With the Luminous Flower, the cave was no longer scary and became Leonard's playground. There he was, picking a piece of rock salt and an amber from the cave wall.

Far away, a white unknown creature liked to crawl on the cave ceiling and blow bubbles. Leonard watched its strange behavior for a long time but couldn't make sense of it, so he just ignored it. After walking a few steps, a stone chest suddenly appeared on the side of the road. Leonard ran over and kicked it, and an old coat popped out, which he put on. Surprisingly, it looked good. On the right side he was still bare, but on the left side was a dark green sleeve. The whole outfit emitted a sense of asymmetrical beauty. Paired with the Golem Bow he acquired at the cave entrance, he finally looked a bit handsome. Leonard's heart fluttered with restrained delight. This 'Golem Set' had a green base color, deep and reserved, not bad at all.

Finally, he wasn't bare-chested anymore. Being a hero seemed to be a tough job, with insufficient clothing and food.

After a few more steps, the exit was near. Unable to resist his impulse, Leonard used his bow and arrow to kill the white 'grass-headed white frog', obtaining a 'Lost Item of the Demon'. It was an important item, but its use was unknown.

Stepping out of the cave, there was light, and the beautiful green landscape came back into view. Leonard felt a sudden relief. He walked a few steps to the riverside, scooped up the river water to wash his face, washing away the stale smell.

A Carpenter Golem came over to chat: "The raft for crossing the river is broken... It's really a dilemma. This is usually the time to transport resources from the other side... The Zonau device is not damaged, which is a small blessing in this misfortune."

Leonard was taken aback, "Zonau device?"

"Oh...? It seems you are not familiar with the Zonau device. It's a necessity here, please let me explain. What we call a Zonau device is this green thing."

"Oh, it's a fan!"

"Like this fan, hit it and it will start. It can blow wind anytime you need it. As you can see, it's very convenient... We will use different Zonau devices according to their use. But to use a Zonau device, energy is indispensable. That is, batteries are needed. Ah... It seems you already have one. Then I am relieved." The Carpenter Golem glanced at the battery on Leonard's waist.

Ignoring the verbose golem, Leonard saw Laru sitting comfortably on a high platform by the river, so he walked over to chat.

"The Butler Golem was the first to be born. Then, we created golems for various positions, such as Cooking Golems and Carpenter Golems... There are now several types of golems in operation. Some golems are more knowledgeable than me, and I've learned a lot from them." Laru emanated confidence, speaking more concisely than the Carpenter Golem.

Leonard ignored him, opting to take a swim in a nearby pond first. In the process, he caught several prehistoric bone-tongue fish. The fish's tight flesh was nutritious and could restore hearts when consumed. Afterwards, he continued along the mountain road, plucking a few energy grasses along the way. He encountered a rare Hunter Golem who shared some experience: "The most important thing about walking in the mountains is to use fire flexibly. As long as you light a fire, you can cook and warm yourself."

"Fire?"

"The method I recommend is to use a flint as a fire starter. Place the flint on the firewood and hit it with a hard metal or stone weapon, and you can start a fire anytime. Do you need me to teach you some cooking knowledge?"

"Teach me cooking knowledge!" Leonard thought there was no harm in learning, his survival knowledge was too weak, which was due to not playing the previous version of the game. Not only that, he had never been interested in "Green Hat" (a term for cuckold).

"As long as you have a pot that can be heated, you can cook anytime, anywhere. Even if you throw in ingredients randomly, you can make decent tasting food. If you carefully select the ingredients, you can make food with various effects, such as warming the body. By the way, you can't eat things like bugs or monster materials directly... but they can be used as ingredients for medicine. In the mountains, these medicines that can warm the body and restore energy are very precious. Anyway, it's very important to be prepared to start a fire. Please remember that. That's all I can teach you. Take care."

Leonard was annoyed, wondering why all the fuss when it's just about cooking something.

The ends of rivers are usually waterfalls, with clouds within reach, unlike the distant yellow-leaved trees on mountain tops that seem so far away. The scenery here is truly refreshing. If it weren't for the important task at hand, Leonard might have stayed.

After crossing a mountain, they entered a pitch-black cave. Along the way, they broke open crates and obtained two types of minerals, eggstone and Zonanium, for future use. The cave contained a well-preserved furnace, where a smelting golem tirelessly worked, red-hot iron perpetually flowing.

"Huh? You don't know about Zonanium? It's a special mineral that can be mined deep underground in this area. Only a small amount of it can be mined in this cave on the island. By refining it into other materials, our civilization was able to develop."

"Refining?"

"Refining means melting Zonanium in a furnace...Zonanium energy crystals are the product of solidifying and packaging Zonanium energy. They are primarily used as battery materials. Zonanium energy is the driving force for Zonanium devices and us. Direct use can restore battery life. The previously refined materials have all been placed on the shelf next to it."

Leonard thought about when he would return here next time. In the meantime, he exchanged most of the Zonanium energy crystals. He also got 3 fan engines from a golem. He installed the fan engines on the minecart, jumped on, and started the roller coaster ride. The journey this time was longer. The tracks wound far into the distance, through the clouds, still, it was unique to ride the homemade "fan minecart". Leonard drove up a mountain, jumped out, and Laru had been waiting for him for some time.

"The chimes of the clock in the Temple of Time will ring at a fixed time in the early morning and dusk. Once, both we and the golems woke up and fell asleep to the sound of the chimes. In our traditional rituals, it was also accompanied... This chime is like the heartbeat of this island. Whenever I teleport away from the temple and hear the chime, I can't help but feel extremely nostalgic."

Now it was close to dusk, the setting sun burning its last passion, reflecting off Laru's illusion, still as dazzling. The shadows of the trees were elongated, and Leonard found it mesmerizing. He distinctly remembered someone saying, "I don't do anything when I watch the sunset." Strangely, the thought flashed through his mind, and he didn't remember who said it.

Not far away, a plump elf kept saying, "I really want to go to my friend's side..."

Before he knew it, it was getting dark. Leonard put energy and golem horns into the nearby Zonanium exchange device, resulting in several fan engines and a dragon head. Not knowing what the latter was for, he stuck the dragon head to the front of the minecart. Now, by hitting the fan at the back of the minecart, the cart would automatically move forward while spitting fire, with flames at least three meters long, making it incredibly cool.

Cool as it was, it consumed a lot of power, and Leonard only had one battery. After playing for about 10 seconds, it was out of power.
