Chapter 17 Elemental Sprites
After reviewing all the tasks, Zhang Changsheng picked one.
"Thank you for your help, I'll take this task."
Zhang Changsheng handed the task list to the dragon girl and spoke very politely.
"OK,"
The dragon girl nodded and began recording the mission.
Tier 1 Quest: Exterminate the Trolls
Quest Description: 3-5 Tier 1 trolls are attacking Trade Route 32.
Task Reward: 800 points + 800 gold coins
Time limit: Complete within three days. If the task fails, 800 points will be deducted.
Because of his increased strength, Zhang Changsheng's power in the Giant Strength Technique was comparable to that of a second-tier expert, which emboldened him considerably, and he accepted a first-tier mission.
After accepting the mission, Zhang Changsheng did not immediately set off to do it, but instead sat down in the Adventurer Guild's rest hall.
Next, Zhang Changsheng took out the Monster Encyclopedia and began searching for monsters that could restore physical strength and possess healing abilities.
Half an hour later, Zhang Changsheng put down the Monster Encyclopedia; he had already found the answer in the book.
There are many monsters with healing abilities, but very few that can restore stamina.
According to the Monster Encyclopedia, there is only one type of Tier 1 monster that can restore stamina: the Elemental Sprite.
Elemental sprites are elemental creatures that resemble butterflies in appearance.
"Go check out the places that sell butterflies; maybe you can find butterflies that can evolve into elemental sprites."
"If you can't find it, you'll have to check how much Elemental Sprites cost at the Fortune Shop."
After thinking for a moment, Zhang Changsheng got up and left.
Zhang Changsheng arrived at the Hundred Flowers Shop.
According to Zhang Changsheng's investigation, the Hundred Flowers Shop was opened by the followers of the Flower Goddess, and like the Wealth Shop, it was found all over the continent.
The flower shop claims to sell flowers from all over the world, and because of the abundance of flowers, it also has a large number of butterflies.
That's why Zhang Changsheng thought of trying his luck at the Hundred Flowers Shop.
From the outside, the Hundred Flowers Palace is no different from the large shopping mall in my previous life, except that it sells all kinds of flowers instead of a wide variety of goods.
It was frequented by women of all kinds; very few men came.
"Hello, sir. Battle pets are not allowed inside the shop, but you can let me look after yours."
A young woman in a petal-patterned dress walked in from the doorway, smiling as she spoke.
"Then I'll trouble you," Zhang Changsheng nodded slightly, then looked at the white dragon and the giant golden eagle: "White dragon, you and the giant golden eagle wait here for me."
As for the fog eagle, it was too small to be noticed by the florist's staff.
Upon entering the flower shop, all sorts of butterflies fluttered around, and the fragrance of various flowers filled the air, making one feel happy.
"So beautiful!"
Zhang Changsheng sighed in amazement. He had never seen such a beautiful sea of flowers and butterflies before. It was truly a shop run by the gods.
"I wonder what kind of flowers this customer would like to buy, and who they would like to give them to?"
A girl with blue hair walked over and asked with a smile.
"I'd like to take a look. I'll let you know if I'm sure."
After a slight smile, Zhang Changsheng began to examine the information of the butterflies flying around.
Zhang Changsheng strolled around the flower shop, stopping frequently, just like a tourist admiring the flowers.
A moment later, Zhang Changsheng's eyes lit up, and with a wave of his hand, a green butterfly was sucked into his hand.
Green-scaled butterfly
Power: 0.05
Agility: 0.8
Physical condition: 0.05
Intelligence: 0.01
Perception: 0.01
Charisma: 2
Skills: None
Description: A very beautiful and extremely rare butterfly.
Bloodline Evolution: Feeding the child with the juice of a Tier 1 Azure Spirit Tooth Fruit will allow the child to evolve into a Tier 1 Elemental Sprite.
Do you give away butterflies here?
"I think this butterfly is very beautiful, and I really want to take it home and keep it as a pet."
Zhang Changsheng looked at the Flower Goddess believer beside him and asked.
"It's free, as long as you buy flowers, you can take a butterfly with you."
The flower goddess's followers quickly spoke up.
"Then give me this bouquet of flowers."
Zhang Changsheng casually pointed to a bunch of flowers worth 3 silver coins.
"Okay, sir."
The flower goddess's followers happily went to collect the flowers. Their commission was very high; for every 3 silver coins spent on flowers, they could earn 1 silver coin in commission.
To be precise, all believers of gods are doing quite well.
After all, gods need faith.
There were no gods in the past, so the leaders of various cults could line their own pockets.
But there are gods in this world. If their subordinates dare to be greedy for money, then there is only one thing: their souls will be scattered, or even captured and taken to the divine kingdom to be tormented for eternity.
This is why most people in the world choose to believe in a certain god in order to make their lives better.
Those who do not believe in gods are very, very few.
After leaving the flower shop with the butterfly, Zhang Changsheng began to think about which monster to choose as his healer.
"Fine, I'll just buy whatever's available on the market."
After shaking his head, Zhang Changsheng stopped worrying and went to the pet market where pets were sold.
The pet market in Heilongcheng is very large, with all kinds of pets for sale.
After all, Black Dragon City is located next to the Black Dragon Mountains, which are home to all sorts of wild beasts and monsters.
"This is?"
Zhang Changsheng walked and stopped, finally stopping in front of a small white bird.
Angel Bird
Power: 0.1
Agility: 2
Physical condition: 0.1
Intelligence: 0.5
Perception: 0.5
Charisma: 2
Skills: None
Description: A very beautiful bird, known as the angel bird because of its beautiful, angel-like wings.
Bloodline Evolution: Feeding it a Tier 1 Light Element Crystal Core + Tier 1 Moonlight Core + Light Grass + Tier 2 Lightfire Stone can evolve it into a Tier 1 Angel Sprite.
"?"
Zhang Changsheng's pupils contracted, and disbelief rose in his eyes.
According to the monster encyclopedia, the Angel Sprite is a very rare monster.
They are highly sought after by mages, and even other melee classes will try to get an angel sprite if they have the means.
Because the angel sprite is really strong; as long as you're alive and still have a breath left, the angel sprite can bring you back to life.
Moreover, the Angel Sprite has great potential and can even advance to the legendary ninth-tier HolyAngemon.
"call!"
After letting out a soft breath, Zhang Changsheng's mind was racing with various thoughts.
"Unfortunately, I'm not strong enough. If I were strong enough, I could become the world's richest person just by raising angels and fairies."
Zhang Changsheng thought to himself with great regret,
After buying the Angel Bird, Zhang Changsheng went to the Wealth Shop to purchase various goods, among which the second-tier Lightfire Stone was the most expensive, worth 400 gold coins.
Zhang Changsheng spent a total of 540 gold coins, and still has 840 gold coins left on his card.
After riding the white dragon and leading the giant golden eagle out of Black Dragon City, Zhang Changsheng headed towards the mission location.
After arriving at a deserted grove, Zhang Changsheng stopped and released the angel bird and the green-scaled butterfly.
"You go first, little one."
Zhang Changsheng took out the juice from the Qingling Tooth Fruit and placed it in front of the Green Scale Butterfly.
After the green-scaled butterfly landed on the edge of the cup, it began to suck it in forcefully.
After the green-scaled butterfly had completely absorbed the juice, specks of green light appeared on its body.
Under the influence of the green light, the green-scaled butterfly completed its elemental transformation, becoming a green butterfly made of green light, about the size of a palm, emitting specks of green light, like a green lamp, which is very conspicuous even in the daytime.
"Is this what the elemental sprites are?"
While watching the elemental sprites flying around him, Zhang Changsheng opened the elemental sprites' information to check it out.
Elemental Sprites
Rank: 1
Power: 0.5
Agility: 3
Physical condition: 1
Intelligence: 5
Perception: 3
Charisma: 3
Skill: Stamina Recovery (Tier 1)
Bloodline Evolution 1: Feed the elemental sprite one Tier 1 Flower Spirit Fruit daily. After 100 days, the elemental sprite can be upgraded to a Tier 2 Elemental Flower Spirit.
Bloodline Evolution 2: Feeding the elemental sprite a second-tier wood-type crystal core and a third-tier elemental fragment at the same time will advance the elemental sprite to a second-tier elemental flower spirit.
"Is stamina recovery the only skill?"
"Although they lack combat ability, they are still quite good as support."
After reading the information about the elemental sprites, Zhang Changsheng nodded slightly, indicating his satisfaction.
"Next, it's your turn."
Zhang Changsheng looked at the angel bird and fed the extraordinary materials he had bought to the beautiful little bird.
After consuming these extraordinary ingredients, a divine golden light rose from the angel bird's body.
Under the influence of the golden light, the angel bird slowly transformed into a palm-sized little angel, looking exactly like the legendary female angel.
It has golden rays on its head and wings on its back, and is very cute.
"Check!"
With a thought, Zhang Changsheng began to check the information about the angel sprite.
Angels and fairies
Rank: 1
Power: 1
Agility: 5
Physical condition: 3
Intelligence: 5
Perception: 3
Charisma: 5
Skills: Holy Heal (Tier 1), Holy Light Bolt (Tier 1), Holy Aura (Tier 1)
Bloodline Evolution 1: When more than 1000 people worship the Angel Sprite as an angel and gain faith, it can advance to a fourth-tier Angewomon.
Bloodline Evolution 2: When the angel sprite becomes a believer of the gods, it can advance to a 3rd-tier little angel.
Bloodline Evolution 3: Consuming a Tier 2 Lightfire Stone and a Tier 3 Light Lizard Beast Heart can advance to a Tier 2 Four-Winged Angel Sprite.
"It's actually possible to advance directly to a 4th-tier Angewomon just by relying on faith."
After reading the information about the Angel Sprite, Zhang Changsheng was somewhat surprised, not expecting that the Angel Sprite had such an evolution method.
"Unfortunately, faith is a forbidden fruit for the gods. With my current strength, if I dare to touch faith, I will only face death."
"As for making angels and fairies believers in God, that's even more impossible."
Zhang Changsheng shook his head and looked at the third evolution method: "Fortunately, it can be evolved with extraordinary materials, otherwise it would be troublesome."
"Hello, Master!"
The little angel fluttered its tiny wings, landed on Zhang Changsheng's right shoulder, nuzzled his face, and greeted him with a cheerful smile.
"Hello there, little one, from now on you'll be called Xiao Guang."
Zhang Changsheng was surprised by the angel's intelligence. He greeted it with a smile and gave the little guy a name.
"Yay! I have a name now!"
Xiao Guang was very happy, jumping and bouncing on Zhang Changsheng's shoulder.
"By the way, little guy, if anyone's around, remember to hide in my backpack. It'll be trouble if someone sees you."
Zhang Changsheng gave instructions.
Angel sprites are too rare and precious. If someone were to see him now, there would probably be a scene of murder and robbery.
The backpack on Zhang Changsheng's back looks a bit like the schoolbag from his previous life. He bought it not long ago, especially for Xiao Guang.
Zhang Changsheng understood the principle that "a common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime."
"Don't worry, Master, I understand. I won't let anyone see me."
Xiao Guang clenched his fist to indicate that he understood.
"Then, let's go."
Zhang Changsheng rode the white dragon and headed towards the trade route where the mission was located.
……
"Boss, no humans have been passing by for days. Should we move to another place?"
On a fairly well-maintained dirt road, several tall trolls were walking. One of the trolls asked the leader a question.
"Let's stay for two more days. If we still don't encounter any human caravans, let's move on to another place."
The troll leader snorted.
"Boss, why are we here? Those humans are small and hard to kill, and they don't taste good at all. They're not as tasty as the pigs in the forest."
A troll henchman spoke up, looking puzzled and confused.
"This is the chief's order, to plunder gold coins and offer them to some great being."
The troll leader shook his head, unaware of the reason.
"A great being?"
The troll underling looked completely bewildered.
"I don't know what it is either, but the troll chieftain said that the Black Dragon Mountains will have a master, just like before."
The troll leader spoke
"What is this?"
As they were talking, the troll leader looked at the mist flowing towards him with some confusion.
"Finally found it!"
At the same time, several kilometers away, Zhang Changsheng turned his head to look in the direction where the troll was.
"There are no other monsters, just five Tier 1 trolls. We can fight them."
Zhang Changsheng had the Mist Eagle check the surroundings again to make sure there were no other enemies before riding the White Dragon toward the Troll.
As he made his way towards the trolls, Zhang Changsheng checked their information.
Troll
Class: Tier 1 Warrior
Power: 8
Agility: 4
Physical condition: 8
Intelligence: 1
Perception: 1
Charisma: 1
Skills: Quick Recovery/Passive (Tier 1) Charge (Tier 1) Stun Strike (Tier 1)
"Such a high physique, coupled with a passive skill that allows for rapid recovery; killing a troll won't be easy."
"If my strength hadn't reached 10 points, comparable to a second-tier player, I really wouldn't have wanted to face these tough opponents."
After reading the troll's information, Zhang Changsheng thought to himself.
"There are enemies!"
The troll leader's ears twitched, he looked ahead, roared loudly, and picked up his battle axe.
Upon hearing their leader's words, the other trolls perked up and cautiously looked ahead.
"drink!"
The moment Zhang Changsheng came into view, the troll leader reached behind his waist with his left hand, took out a hand axe, and threw it at Zhang Changsheng.
At the same time, the other trolls did the same thing.
call!call!
Five axe blades flew towards Zhang Changsheng with a whooshing sound.
"Wind Blade Technique!"
Zhang Changsheng raised his sword and swung it, unleashing a massive wind blade.
boom!
The flying hand axe was instantly severed by the wind blades, and swept towards the troll under their influence.
