Chapter 157: Farm disguised as a cub
Shu Li released his primordial power, enlarged his size, and with immense effort, he finally restored the damaged forest to its original state. Replacing broken trees is a considerable undertaking. Fortunately, his mastery of wood magic, along with the assistance of the wood spirits, made the restoration effort much easier.
After returning to the Crystal City with the Elf King, Shu Li missed lunch completely. Fortunately, the elves on duty in the restaurant left some food for him, so he didn't go hungry.
After lunch, he walked towards the elf cub's courtyard, carrying a little monster holding a fruit in his arms.
The elves he met on the road curiously asked him where the little baby beast came from, and he always answered that he picked it up from Mount Amitai.
Yes, to conceal Farm's origins, he had to fabricate a white lie to conceal his true identity. On his way to Mount Amitai to find the king, he encountered this monster cub, abandoned by its mother. Feeling sorry for it, he took it home.
Farm cooperated with a pitiful expression.
As a tenth-level magical beast, his camouflage skills were top-notch, and he could even fool the elves.
"Sperian, you're finally back!"
As soon as I stepped into the courtyard, I was immediately hugged tightly by my three little friends.
In the morning, they gathered together to watch the newly grown large fruits on the mother tree. As a result, the elves were so excited that they kept petting them.
They were small in size and were fought over by the elves, almost losing their skin. When they finally escaped, they were surprised to find that Sperien was gone.
They thought he had hidden himself from the elves, but they searched everywhere but couldn't find him. That was until they met Saiya, who told them that Sperien had gone to find the Elf King.
Looking for the Elf King?
The three little goblins looked at each other.
Because Sperien had a criminal record, he said he was looking for the Elf King, but he sneaked into the trunk of the mother tree and went to the dark elves' territory to do purification work.
But it was morning, and there was no way Sperian could go to Wanaku.
Morning in the Elf Kingdom is evening in Vanaku, which is when the Dark Elves are most active.
So, Sperian might have really gone to find the Elf King.
So, the three goblins went to find Danlov first to congratulate him on becoming the God of Magic, and then returned to the Elf Cubs Courtyard to wait for Sperien to come back.
We waited until the afternoon.
“Ouch~”
Farm, who was almost crushed by the goblins' enthusiastic hug, let out a dissatisfied cry.
"Huh? What is this?" Budno looked at the little red monster that looked like a ball of flesh curiously.
Discio and Angel let go of Shu Li, looked down at the little monster, reached out to pinch its pointed horns, touch its tail, pull its wings, and poke its round belly.
"Wow, it looks like a monster cub!" Dizio couldn't help but pinch its belly. "It's so soft and juicy!"
Angel stroked the scales on its back and exclaimed, "The scales are delicate and smooth, and as red as fire. They are so beautiful."
"It's so small, I can hold it in one hand." Budno looked at Shu Li with sparkling eyes. "Sperian, where did you pick up this cub?"
Shu Li looked at the little monster with sympathy, its eyes rolling as it was being "ravaged" by its three companions, and said with a grin, "I picked it up from Mount Amitai."
"Ami Taishan!" The three little friends exclaimed in unison.
Angel leaned in close to Shu Li and sniffed her like a puppy before asking, "Have you been to the hot springs?"
Shu Li nodded calmly: "Yes."
Dizio shouted, "You didn't even ask us to go with you!"
It is so comfortable to soak in hot springs, and all the little fairies love it.
Budno rarely stood on the same front with Decio and nodded continuously.
Shu Li blinked innocently, "I went to Mount Amitai to ask the king for advice. The king was taking a hot spring bath, so I followed him."
The three friends suddenly realized: "Is that so..."
It's really not a good idea to take them to take a bath together.
Shu Li rescued Farm from his friends, patted his bouncy belly, and said, "I found him abandoned in the bushes by his mother. I felt sorry for him, so I picked him up."
When the three goblins heard that this chubby little monster was a cub abandoned by its mother, they immediately looked at it with sympathy.
"If a newly weaned beast is not well cared for, it will easily die." Angel took out a Kuku fruit from the storage ring and put it to the mouth of the little monster.
Farm, who was originally lazy, immediately became energetic when he smelled the fragrance of the fruit. He hugged the fruit and nibbled on it without hesitation.
Not bad, not bad. Disguising as a little milk beast can also give you delicious fruits to eat. That’s great!
"Wow, it eats so fast!" Budno said in surprise.
"Poor thing, must be starving?" Angel stuffed another Kuku into the little monster's mouth. "Does it have a name?"
Shu Li mentally spitted at Farm's shamelessness and said, "It's called Farm, and it's a cub of a fire dragon lizard."
Dixio also gave a Kuku Fruit to the little monster and asked in confusion: "Doesn't the Fire Dragon Lizard like to live in the desert the most? Why did it come to Mount Amitai?"
Shu Li blinked and said calmly, "I don't know either. The king said it was a Fire Dragon Lizard, so it must be a Fire Dragon Lizard. As for why it's in Mount Amitai... maybe high-level magical beasts like to run around."
The Fairy Forest and the Elf Kingdom are not open to outsiders, but high-level magical beasts can pass through the fog and enter and exit freely.
For example, Mr. Orochi would occasionally go out for a stroll, and every time he came back, he would send him a bunch of treasures. For example, the three-headed water monster would swim into the Danaga Sea through the secret passage at the bottom of the lake and pick up some cargo from shipwrecked ships.
Shu Li's words quickly convinced his friends.
Although lying is not a good thing, explaining Farm's origins is too complicated and involves many aspects, and in the end it may have to mention that he is the master of the Horcrux.
That's too heavy.
Just as the Elf King wanted him to grow up happily, he also didn't want the fifteen-year-old goblin to understand the dark side of the world too early.
Farm was recognized by the goblins and was so happy that he was surrounded by fruits and ate them happily.
In the room, Shu Li took out the Sun Crystals from her storage ring. "Desio, these are for you."
Suddenly, a pile of "red crystals" emitting a burning breath appeared on the ground, and the three friends stepped back in surprise.
"Sperian, are these crystal ores?" Disio felt a strong breath of fire from the pile of "red crystals" and his heart was pounding.
"It's the Sun Crystal." Shu Li smiled. "I heard that this is a crystal formed from the blood of the God of Fire. It's a top-notch material for making fire magic tools, and it can also increase the magic power level of fire magicians."
"Blood of the Fire God!"
The three goblins gaped in shock.
Farm, who was squatting on the table, stopped eating fruit and looked at them boredly.
What a bunch of ignorant little goblins!
Budno marveled at the sight, circling around the Sun Crystal. "Sperian, you're amazing! You even got the blood of the God of Fire!"
Angel asked doubtfully, "Did you get it from that... dark elf named Efit?"
Before today, there was no Sun Crystal in Sperion, but last night he went to Vanaku through the roots of the mother tree and found it.
Apart from exchanging herbs with the dark elves, he couldn't figure out where Sperian got so many rare crystals.
Dixie was shocked: "Give it all to me?"
Shu Li nodded: "Yes, these are all for you."
Exchanging herbs with Efit is a very good reason.
"Too much! I can't take it—" Disio waved his hands. These were the rare crystals that Sperien had risked his life to exchange with the dark elves. How could he accept them with a clear conscience?
Shu Li didn't expect Disio to refuse. "You often help me collect herbs, so I should give you half."
Disio was still hesitant, so Angel advised, "Take it. These will be of great help in improving your magic level."
Budno patted him on the shoulder and said, "We are all good brothers. Let's share good things together in the future!"
Shu Li narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Budno is right! Good brothers should share happiness and hardships together!"
After hearing what they said, Dixie accepted the Sun Crystal, hugged Shu Li gratefully, and rubbed her hard. "Thank you!"
Shu Li felt itchy from his rubbing and patted his back.
In the afternoon, the goblins received news that Danlov, who had been promoted to the God of Magic, was preparing to leave the Elf Kingdom and return to the human world.
They immediately rushed over to see him off.
In front of the towering city gate, the Elf King led the elves to solemnly see Danlov off.
Danlov was flattered.
You know, when he first came, the elves were indifferent to him, a human who had left the Elf Kingdom for a thousand years. After a few days of getting along, their attitude gradually changed. And when he broke through the bottleneck and became a God of Magic, he finally gained the recognition of the elves.
Danlov was very grateful to them, especially the four little elves.
He looked at Sperion, who was standing beside the Elf King, and said with regret, "I'm worried about the affairs of the courtyard and have to leave early. I'm sorry I can't teach you anymore."
