Chapter 760 The Gods' Game: Card Swapping 4
Maple Syrup sat on the green velvet sofa chair by the window of the gem shop, holding a cup full of Moo Moo milk, watching the two cubs meet at the entrance of the gem shop.
The two little heads huddled together, whispering and discussing something.
It should be related to Moonlight Wetland.
They were among the few children in the town who were trying to earn money and still wanted to go to magic school.
And there's another one... oh, he's here too.
Maple Syrup looked at a small head peeking out from the alley diagonally opposite. A tiny flame flickered at the end of the other person's hair above their head. The cub was peeking at the two cubs at the entrance of the gem shop.
A moment later, the cub with glowing wings noticed the little boy who was spying on them. She whispered a few words to the cub with the dog tail, and a few seconds later, they both rushed towards the little boy.
The three cubs chased each other and disappeared from Maple Syrup's sight.
She found it extremely interesting; it was the most interesting thing she had encountered since she inexplicably came into this world.
She jumped off the sofa and found her mother in the gem workshop behind the shop: "Mother~"
The parents in this world are exactly the same as her parents in Senhai, even some of their little habits are the same. If it weren't for the differences in their professions, abilities, and living environments, and the fact that her sisters didn't come, she would have suspected that they were a family who came to this world together.
The woman cutting the gemstone asked, "Is there something you need?"
Maple Syrup: "Mother, will I be able to go to school at Moonlight Wetlands next year?"
The woman's voice was gentle, filled with love that everyone could hear. She said, "Of course, our little Maple Syrup only needs to eat well and grow up healthy. You don't need to worry about anything. Your father and I will prepare everything for you."
Thinking about the strange setting of this world, Maple Syrup asked again, "What if I can't awaken my magic?"
"No, I won't allow that to happen."
"All right."
...
Yu Xunge and Wu Ren cornered the little boy next to a trash can. The boy, clutching a small piece of bread tightly to his chest, sat on the ground, looking up at the two bullies who had chased after him, and stammered, "What...what do you want?!"
Mistblade asked, "Why are you following us?"
Seeing that the little boy was about to retort, Yu Xunge cut him off first: "We are here to do something big, don't waste our time, just say what you have to say."
A tiny black flame peeked cautiously from the back of the little boy's head, sizing up the two guys blocking his way. The little boy said, "...I heard from that red-haired girl who loves milk that you were asking about school. I also want to work to earn money to go to school."
Yu Xunge and Wu Ren exchanged a glance, both understanding the meaning in each other's eyes: Why does that red-haired girl tell everyone everything?!
Yu Xunge went straight to the point: "So, you want to join our gang?"
A gang...?!
The little boy hesitated, clutching his biscuit tightly and looking at the two little girls who were half a head taller than him with fear.
Fogblade decided to bring out the information that had instantly moved Yu Xunge: "When did you turn 10? Moonlight Wetlands accepts applications every July. No magic academy accepts students over 11 years old. If you don't go to a magic academy, you can only be an ordinary being for the rest of your life."
The hesitation in the little boy's eyes vanished instantly. He jumped up, clutching the cookies, and asked in a strong voice, "What's the name of our gang?!"
Just seconds ago, she learned that their team was a gang called Mistblade: "That's not important... My name is Mistblade, her name is Seeking Song, what's your name?"
"Fat goose".
A few minutes later, the three little Puddings sat in a row at the end of the alley, munching on expired cookies, discussing how they could earn enough for tuition, travel expenses, and living expenses by July of next year.
The current stage involves everyone taking turns talking about their special skills, and then deciding on the means to make money.
Unexpectedly, none of the three spoke; instead, they looked each other up and down with the same expression.
The three youthful faces tensed up, looking serious, each feeling like a wise and resourceful adult.
That wary yet assessive, confident yet slightly arrogant expression—it's obvious everyone's up to something.
Yu Xunge felt a pang of sadness in her heart.
So it turns out that this cheat ability wasn't just for him, but also for the other cubs...
She glanced discreetly at the backs of her two accomplices' hands, and her mood instantly brightened; there were no strange patterns on their hands.
Only I have it.
This further strengthened Yu Xunge's resolve to hide the pattern on the back of his hand.
Perhaps the strange pattern on the back of her hand is the real cheat code she received after time travel.
The three cubs remained deadlocked for a long time before Fogblade, the organizer, finally decided to speak first, otherwise the newly formed money-making team would fall apart.
She said, "I can replicate what I've touched."
She didn't go into too much detail, and after she finished speaking, she looked at Fat Goose and Xun Ge.
"Can it be copied?" Yu Xunge immediately said, "Then you just need to copy the best gems and sell them, wouldn't that be enough?"
Fogblade did not answer her question, clearly indicating that this skill had some kind of drawback, which forced her to come out and find a partner to cooperate with.
According to the order of joining the team, it was now Yu Xunge's turn to speak, but she looked at Fei'e, crossed her arms, and ordered, "You go first."
The fat goose snorted angrily, then said honestly, "I can turn food into magical food."
It's a very simple sentence, but clearly, he wasn't telling the truth either.
Why are all kids like this these days?!
Facing the gazes of his two companions, Yu Xunge said, "I can make several kinds of magic potions."
She hadn't forgotten what Fan Xiangxiang had told her when she transmigrated. She couldn't possibly tell Wu Ren and Fei E about her cheat ability, nor did she want to expose her ability to make large quantities of magic potions at such a young age so soon.
They looked at each other, knowing that the other was not telling the truth, but the atmosphere became more relaxed and harmonious.
Because the teammates he recruited from the garbage street weren't useless guys.
More importantly, there were no brainless and impulsive teammates present.
The three cubs looked at each other, nodded in satisfaction, and expressed their approval of their teammate.
—Not bad, this teammate is good enough for me.
It can be said that at this moment, the team was officially established.
Fogblade took the lead in showing further sincerity, saying, "I can copy items, but I can't copy more than 3 items at the same time, and the copies can't exist for more than 6 hours."
"I can only transform into one type of food per hour, and the portion can't be too big..." Fatty Goose was worried about being disliked by his friends, so he focused on the advantages of his skill. He said, "But!! Food that is transformed into magic food has a longer shelf life, and the magic effect will not disappear. It's amazing. Look at this cookie, after eating it, my strength doubled!"
As he spoke, he gave a few magic cookies to Xun Ge and Wu Ren.
Yu Xunge moved the old backpack behind him to the front of him, opened it, and took out two glass bottles.
Both Fogblade and Fat Goose recognize this bottle; it's from Moo Moo Fresh Milk, a famous brand in the town. Most families who dote on their children subscribe to this milk, and these bottles are the most common type of milk found in the trash cans.
The two baby bottles in front of you contain liquids of different colors.
