Chapter 41 Hundreds of Local Specialties



The little tree spirit was healed by Li Aili's alchemical potion.

From the moment she began brewing the fourth healing potion, a tree spirit was always secretly learning from her.

But when she looked over, the tree spirits pretended nothing was wrong and strolled away.

There was another tree with thicker bark, which simply turned into a tree and took root next to the big black pot, looking at it with utter righteous indignation.

Didn't you see that his tree canopy bent right up into her pot?

Li Aili couldn't stand it anymore, "Anyone who wants to learn alchemy, come over here!"

The female tree spirit leader said hesitantly, "But we don't have any gold coins."

She added, "Even your own people can't be sold to you."

Li Aili shook her head, "Free teaching, no payment required."

Even the tree spirits living deep in the mountains and forests looked at Li Aili with a subtle change in their gaze at this moment.

Li Aili's new friend, Zhenzhen Badam, patted Li Aili's shoulder with a heavy expression.

“You are certainly not like those greedy humans.”

"You're really stupid, you might starve to death. Why don't you come here and we'll take care of you?"

Li Aili: "..." Thank you so much!

She should say enigmatically to her new friend, "How do you know I wasn't standing in the atmosphere this time?"

Zhenzhen Almond: "??"

The other tree spirits weren't as worried as their leader.

Upon hearing that the lesson was free, they all swarmed around, watching intently.

Li Aili began by explaining how to crush the magical plant.

I noticed the tree spirits' expressions, and they were all very attentive; none of them fell asleep.

Then, we began a hands-on demonstration while explaining the precautions for refining healing potions.

Finally, the medicine was successfully dispensed with a 'pop'.

The tree spirits exclaimed in unison, looking utterly bewildered, "Wow~" (゜0゜)

[You have successfully spread alchemy, rewarding you with 5 points of profession reputation.]

Li Aili: This is exactly what I wanted!

She immediately gave up her seat, saying, "Just listening isn't enough. Who among you will try it yourself?"

"Me! Me! Me!" A male tree spirit raised his hand high.

"Okay, it's you."

The male tree spirit crushed the aquatic flower almost perfectly.

Li Aili's eyes lit up; this looked promising!

Then, the male tree spirit, standing eight zhang away from the iron pot, began to 'remotely throw' things into it.

The male tree spirit even thoughtfully plucked the cleanest leaf from his own body, and, carrying the powder from the water flower, gathered it up and made a 'three-point shot'.

Hey, the ball went in!

That's amazing... my foot!

Li Aili: (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻

"What are you doing? Shooting hoops here?"

The male tree spirit replied shyly, "We are more afraid of fire."

Li Aili: "..." That's amazing.

She took a deep breath. "Is there anyone who isn't afraid of fire?"

The surroundings were deathly silent.

Not satisfied with that, the tree spirits all took a big step back to show their 'respect' for the fire.

Li Aili: "..."

Forget it, earning five points of professional reputation is good enough, what more could she ask for?

Exhausted, Li Aili sat down by the lake again.

The female tree spirit leader came closer; she had just looked at the elven goods brought by the centaurs and was extremely happy.

Compared to the Terra Roots grown by their own people, the crops cultivated by the Wood Elves are clearly more abundant in natural power.

"The next generation of little tree spirits will grow up very well," Zhenzhen Badam said excitedly.

Remembering the important matter, Li Aili immediately asked seriously, "Now, can you tell me what exactly happened here?"

Zhenzhen Badam began to recount the story.

When the 'Green Hat Squad' first came here, the tree spirits weren't so disgusted with humans yet.

Although those guys inexplicably stole some of their 'food'.

But with so little Terra Root, nobody bothered to care.

However, those people were badly beaten by the demonic fish in the lake for picking the water flowers.

"But not long after, the humans came again. This time, there were even more of them, including a despicable spellcaster!" A flame of hatred burned in Zhenzhen Badanmu's eyes.

“Those people have ruined the water flowers by the lake, which are food for the amphibious demon fish in the lake.”

“When the amphibious demon fish attacked them, they killed the demon fish.”

“Pepe was playing very well with the magic fish. His mother wasn’t watching him. When he saw his friend being killed, he got so angry that he rushed over.”

"We must protect the saplings; the adult tree spirits have also passed by."

“Those people were scared by us. The melee fighters were easy to deal with, but the spellcaster became a big problem. He started throwing spells around randomly.”

"The fireball was like a falling star. Many trees were set ablaze. The seedlings were frightened and ran around in a panic. We were fighting the invaders."

"That despicable spellcaster only targets seedlings!"

"We eventually drove them away, but almost all the seedlings were attacked by magic. Most of the Terra Roots we planted were also deliberately burned!"

"Pepe was the one who was injured the most."

Li Aili's brows furrowed more and more as she listened.

As far as she knew, there wasn't a single spellcaster to be found in the entire Central City.

There's nothing that can be done; the Duke is just that unpopular with spellcasters.

So here's the question: what if these people aren't adventurers from the Central City Adventurers' Guild?

Who are they?

And why go straight for the Water Flower and the Root of Terra?

According to the tree spirit, these people weren't there to harvest the fruit, but to destroy it all.

It's like they're deliberately going against her.
