Chapter 095 Successfully Stealing Fruit No. 1
Shu Li thought he would oversleep, but his biological clock woke him up on time. Not only did he get up early, but he also felt energetic and not sleepy at all.
It is true that people feel refreshed when they are happy.
He hummed a little tune, released his original power to grow bigger, made himself clean and refreshed, and went out with a radiant look.
"Good morning, Sperian!"
"Good morning, Saya, you look beautiful today!"
Shu Li's little mouth was as sweet as honey, and Sai Ya's eyes curved with laughter when she heard it.
"Hey, little Sperian, you look so energetic today. Did something good happen to you?" Ilio asked.
"Happy event? Of course!" Shu Li raised his head and chest proudly.
"What good news is this? Tell us and share it with everyone." Ilio winked at him.
"Yes...I won't tell you!" Shu Li stuck out her tongue and ran away, leaving Ilio staring blankly behind.
"Pfft..." Saya laughed out loud.
Ilio teases children every day, is he disliked?
After breakfast, Shu Li went to the library for class with great interest. Seeing the Elf King sitting in front of the window, he bowed to him respectfully and thanked him.
The Elf King smiled: "Why thank me?"
Shu Li said seriously: "It is because of Wang's encouragement that I have the courage to do what I want to do."
He had many concerns about negotiating with Efit, but the king's words were like a magic needle that stabilized the sea, allowing him to move forward courageously.
Fortunately, he succeeded in convincing Efit to become a long-term partner. With Efit as his cover, he could transfer the fruits openly.
The Elf King looked at the shining stars in the young goblin's eyes and gave him affirmation and praise: "On the road to growth, sticking to your own beliefs is precious."
Being praised by Wang, Shu Li felt as sweet as honey in her heart and studied more seriously.
He was full of energy all day long and was enthusiastic about everything he did. He even lost twenty games in an archery competition with Ilio without getting discouraged.
When I returned to my room at night, I turned into a tiny kid, hunched over the mini desk, and passionately wrote in my diary, making up for yesterday's negotiation. My handwriting changed from neat regular script to cursive script, and I was overflowing with desire to express myself.
After writing ten pages in one breath, he put down his pen with a feeling of being unsatisfied and read it again from the beginning, feeling very satisfied.
He wrote for too long and unknowingly it was almost midnight. He packed up, flapped his wings, flew into the courtyard through the window, said hello to the mother tree, quickly drilled into the trunk, passed through the space tunnel, and came to the territory of the dark elves.
The sun in Wanaku was still scorching today. Shu Li felt like she was melting as soon as she poked her head out from the trunk of the mother tree.
He hurriedly hid under a dark green leaf, took out his magic wand, and prepared to purify the mother tree first.
Suddenly, he felt a sharp gaze, and he lay down alertly, carefully looking for the owner of the gaze.
It's Efit.
Shu Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Didn't he come too early today?
Dark elves generally prefer the night. The midday sun is the strongest, and they would rather stay indoors than go out.
The mother tree specifically chose noon for him to come and do the purification work, which was to accurately grasp the habits of the dark elves.
However, Ephite is a special case.
Ever since he took on this job, he would come regularly after lunch to count the fruits.
In order to avoid him, Shu Li would either come early or hide and wait until he finished counting and left before purifying the mother tree.
Efit was wearing a hood to protect himself from the sun, holding a notebook in one hand and a black feather pen in the other. He looked up at the branches high above and with his excellent eyesight he saw the goblin who had negotiated with him yesterday.
Shu Li waved at him friendly as a greeting.
Efit continued to record the numbers without any reaction.
Shu Li didn't need his response. She raised her magic wand and cast silent magic on the tree trunk.
One, two, three, four, five—work is over.
He is now a high-level magician, and it is more than enough for him to cast five purification spells.
The mother tree has been eroded by darkness for a long time. If it absorbs too many light elements at once, it will be counterproductive and cause a rebound of the dark power.
After Shu Li finished the purification, she flapped her wings and flew upwards, found the small fruit to be purified, stuck out her little butt, and crawled into the small space formed by the leaves.
Efit had good eyesight, and as he watched the little elf's skillful movements, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, but halfway through, he frowned slightly.
For five whole years, he hadn't even noticed the goblin. It wasn't until the goblin revealed himself that he realized his existence.
Since the two of them have reached a cooperation agreement, he will abide by the agreement and provide cover for him.
After Shu Li purified the small fruit, he couldn't wait to ask the mother tree.
[Onomishis, can we transfer Guoguo No. 1?]
He hugged the fresh green little fruit, couldn't help but kissed it, and whispered, "Guoguo, we will go home soon."
"Yes, Fruit No. 1 has been completely purified. Once it is moved back to the main trunk, the one born will be a pure white elf."
The mother tree's gentle voice echoed in Shu Li's mind.
[Great! Oenomisi, let's get started! How do I transfer? What do I need to do?]
Shu Li let go of Xiao Guozi and shook his ears excitedly.
"I will cut off the stem of fruit number one in a moment. You will immediately use wood magic to keep it alive and lead it into my root tunnel. Once it returns to the trunk, use wood recovery magic to connect the stem to my trunk."
[good! ]
This operation is not difficult. He now knows silent wood magic, which makes it easier to get twice the result with half the effort.
'start--'
The next second, the fruit stem broke. Shu Li was quick-witted and quick-handed. He raised his magic wand and silently chanted the wood magic to maintain vitality. Fruit No. 1 was then wrapped in a ball of green light.
The light was a bit conspicuous. Shu Li didn't think twice and hugged the number one fruit and crawled into the tree trunk. In a flash, he arrived at the other end of the space tunnel. Under the guidance of the mother tree, he returned to the elf courtyard.
In the dark night, the small fruit is like a small lamp, emitting a soft green light.
Shu Li held it, flapped its wings, found the branch with the densest leaves on the main trunk of the mother tree, put the fruit on it, and then silently recited a silent spell with a pious heart.
[Wood Spirit, please use the purest wood element to restore the bloodline between the mother tree and her child, and restore everything to its original state.]
"As you wish—"
The voice of the wood elf suddenly sounded, and a phantom appeared on the branch of the mother tree. He raised his hands and sprinkled a green starlight, which fell on fruit No. 1. When the starlight touched the fruit, it gave it endless vitality. The fruit stem automatically found the most suitable branch to grow and settled down.
Shu Li was stunned watching from the side.
Fruit No. 1 was successfully connected to the trunk of the mother tree without any trace of "ps".
"Great!" He put away his magic wand, flapped his wings, and circled around fruit number one, marveling at it.
The wood elf sat gracefully on the branch, lifted her willow-like hair, and looked at the cheerful little elf with a smile.
"Sperien, don't you sleep at night, busy collecting fruit from the Elf Mother Tree?"
The little goblin who was spinning in circles froze, and a look of as if her secret had been discovered appeared on her fair face.
Oops!
I was so happy that I even forgot about the mysterious Wood Elf!
Reciting the magic spell is equivalent to summoning her.
With her help, the magic became more perfect, but his behavior of "stealing fruit" was also exposed.
"Where did the fruit come from? Could it be..." the Wood Elf asked knowingly, "Could it be stolen from the Dark Elves?"
Shu Li drooped her ears, blinked her large green eyes, and clasped her hands together. "Fenris, please keep this a secret for me. Please!"
Fenris is the name of the wood elf. He once heard the Elf King calling her in a dream.
The Wood Elf leaned forward, moved closer to Shu Li, and said with a smile, "Since you asked me, I have no choice but to agree. After all, I can't refuse a cute and brave little elf."
Shu Li blushed slightly. "Thank you...thank you."
The wood elf raised the corner of his mouth, turned his eyes to the small fruit that gave birth to the elf cub, and softened his expression, but he was still teasing the little elf.
"Sperien, why don't you just bring the fruit here? Aren't you afraid that the mother tree will give birth to a dark elf cub?"
"No way!" Shu Li immediately retorted, "I've been purifying Fruit Number One for many days, and now it doesn't have any dark power! The mother tree said it could be transferred, so I helped transfer it!"
"Ah, is that so?" The wood elf was skeptical.
Shu Li puffed up his cheeks and tried to organize his words to defend himself, but the shadow of the mother tree appeared in time to clear his name.
"Fenris, don't tease the child," the mother tree said solemnly. "Sperien has been a great help in my recovery of sanity and vitality. Now he is risking his own life to help the elves continue their future. His contribution is invaluable."
Upon hearing this, the Wood Elf wiped away the playful smile on his face and looked deeply at the little elf. "Please forgive my careless words."
Shu Li wasn't angry to begin with. Seeing the Wood Elf apologize, he quickly waved his hand, "No...it's okay! I only did my little bit to help the elves prosper."
Without the blessing of the Elf King, he could not perform silent purification. Without the root space tunnel of the mother tree, he could not reach the territory of the dark elves. Without the recognition of the wood elves, he was still just an intermediate magician, let alone the silent magic of wood.
How can one not be lovable when seeing such a humble little elf?
The Wood Elf said, "Don't worry, I will help you keep the secret."
A certain Elf King who was protecting his children saw everything from the opposite room, so it doesn’t count as her leaking the secret!
"Thank you." Shu Li breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want the elves to know about his "great achievements" yet, because he was afraid that if they knew, they would be frightened and would not let him go to the dark elves' territory again.
There are still many fruits that have not been "stolen" back!
The mother tree and the wood spirit looked at each other and said softly, "Sperian, it's late, you should go to bed."
Shu Li looked at the small fruits growing on the branches of the mother tree, feeling a little dazed.
The transplant process was relatively simple, so he didn't feel any sense of accomplishment.
"Good night, Eunomia, good night Fenris... Good night, Number One Guoguo."
Before leaving, Shu Li flew to Xiao Guozi, stroked it twice, and reluctantly returned to her room.
He thought he would be too excited to sleep, but the boy was very sleepy. He lay down in the soft quilt, rubbed himself a few times, and fell asleep.
The next morning, he was awakened by a noise coming from the courtyard.
"Oh, by the God of Light! The mother tree has borne fruit!"
"Did the God of Light hear our prayers? Not only has the mother tree recovered half its vitality, it's even bearing fruit!"
"After more than five hundred years, the elves finally welcomed new life!"
"Ilio, you are no longer the youngest elf of the elves!"
"All this is thanks to..."
"Yeah...thank him for everything he did for the elves."
"Shh-"
Shu Li woke up in a daze, with her messy hair lifted up. She rubbed her sleepy eyes, climbed out of the bed, flapped her wings and flew to the window.
Through the glass, I saw that the courtyard was full of excited elves. Even the most reserved elves were talking incoherently and dancing like children.
Oh, the elves discovered that there was a small fruit growing on the branch of the mother tree.
Shu Li perked up and smiled brightly.
It turns out that helping others is the source of happiness.
Although the elves didn't know that he was half responsible for the mother tree bearing fruit, he felt very happy when he saw the surprised expressions on their faces.
After watching for a while, he flew to the bathroom to wash up, changed into clean new clothes, and restored his original strength. He swaggered into the courtyard and came to the mother tree. He looked up at the fruits on the branches and exclaimed exaggeratedly: "Wow! The mother tree has fruit!!!! How wonderful!!!"
As soon as he shouted, the elves who knew the truth looked at him, and the corners of their mouths couldn't help but rise.
Shu Li continued his performance: "Look, this fruit is so green! It will definitely give birth to a cute and beautiful elf cub."
"Well, yes... yes, Sperian is absolutely right!" Saiya reached out and rubbed his head, then took out a box from her storage bag. "I'm so happy today. This is for you."
"Huh?" An exquisite box was stuffed into Shu Li's arms.
Seeing this, the other elves took out their most precious possessions.
"Today is a good day, Sperian. This is for you. Take it."
"Looking forward to the birth of the cubs, I'll give you a toy. You're welcome."
“…”
Shu Li was in a panic when he received it.
Ahhhh?
What's going on?
They are in a good mood, so why would they give him a bunch of gifts?
"Enough, enough... It's really too much... I don't have time to collect it..."
Shu Li, surrounded by people, struggled to squeeze out. He was overwhelmed by the gifts and was about to be buried by so many "gifts". He noticed the Elf King standing behind him and reached out for help: "King——"
The Elf King raised his hands, and the elves surrounding Shu Li were repelled by an invisible force. Then he floated in the air, drifted towards the Elf King, and fell into his arms.
Shu Li, who was suddenly carried like a princess, blinked innocently.
