Chapter 265 She Has a Soul Pill Inside Her
Lu Youyou knew all three mission targets. She had maxed out her favorability with the Monster Merchant and the Honey Badger Warrior, and she also knew how to help Xiao Cui increase her favorability.
But it's the gold coin merchant...
My current favorability rating towards her is only 1%.
However, Lu Youyou knew what the gold coin merchant liked; he liked specific items from a certain dungeon.
The task of increasing favorability is not difficult.
However, I still need to get paid.
"Immortal Herb, I have a habit of collecting payment before accepting a mission."
Xiancao's anxious, fidgeting hands relaxed, and her face showed undisguised joy.
"You'll definitely get paid, since you're helping... take care of the child. Here, take this."
Lu Youyou looked at the small bottle in Xiancao's hand.
[Invincible Telescope *1: Can clearly see invisible enemies within 100 meters, unlimited uses.]
Lu Youyou's eyes lit up, and after a moment's thought, she decided to accept the three tasks.
Xiancao was completely relieved, and her smile became much more genuine.
"Lu Youyou, you must take good care of Xiao Cui. She will repay you in the future."
Xiao Cui replied timidly, "Sister, I will repay you when I succeed."
Upon hearing this, Lu Youyou simply said "Hey" and waved her hand.
"We're just getting what we need. Let's not say anything more. Just don't kill me if we meet again."
After saying that, she turned her head and gestured with her chin towards the RV, indicating that Xiao Cui should get in.
Although Xiao Cui was reluctant to leave the fairy herb, she obediently let go of her hand and got into the carriage by herself.
"Ugh...help me..."
The man on the ground was calling for help again.
This time he learned his lesson and placed three high-level red energy fragments on the ground, sparing no expense.
Lu Youyou was just worried about not having any high-grade red fragments to fuse with the explosive beads when this man conveniently came to her door.
She took the three high-grade red fragments and immediately put them into the DIY machine along with three exploding beads and three wolf monster eyeballs.
Then she took out a high-grade panacea pill and put it into the man's mouth.
His wounds healed at an astonishing speed, and his ashen complexion gradually regained its rosy hue.
He yelled and stood up, but before he could even steady himself, a long icicle was pierced through his chest with a whoosh.
Lu Youyou looked in the direction the ice cone had come from and saw the fairy herb.
"you…"
Xiancao smiled politely, as if she were asking for credit, or perhaps offering a reminder.
“Lu Youyou, this human’s mission is to kill me. I can’t let him go back alive. I’m only killing him after you’ve collected his reward.”
Lu Youyou gently shook her head: "I'm not saying there's anything wrong with you killing him, I'm saying..."
She stared directly into Xiancao's eyes until she made her lower her head before asking.
"With your strength, how come you were so badly injured just now? Did you wait for me to come and save you?"
Xiancao suddenly looked up, asking incredulously, "How could this be? I—cough cough cough!"
She started coughing violently again.
"puff!"
Blood splattered, and she collapsed, convulsing.
"Sister Fairy Herb!"
Xiao Cui had already climbed onto the roof of the car. When she saw Xiancao like this, she jumped off the car and rushed to Xiancao's side, carefully wiping the blood off her face.
"Sister Fairy Grass, are you alright? Have you forgotten that the adults forbade you from using your skills? What are we going to do now? Waaaaah..."
"Don't, don't worry..."
Xiancao reached out and touched Xiaocui's face, crushed a teleportation card, and disappeared from the spot.
Xiao Cui was still wailing, unable to control her grief.
Lu Youyou waited until she calmed down a bit before letting Xiao Ya carry her and Xiao Cui onto the roof of the car.
Back on the roof, Xiao Cui curled up in her tattered cotton-padded coat, her body trembling as she tried to suppress the sobs that were about to escape her lips.
"Xiao Cui, may I ask you a question?"
Xiao Cui nodded, wiping away her tears.
Are you humans turned NPCs?
Xiao Cui cried out in a broken voice, "I...I was born a monster, but my mother was once human, my...my mother made me..."
The sound stopped abruptly, and Xiao Cui could only cry loudly.
Lu Youyou patted Xiao Cui's shoulder, but the doubts in her heart grew stronger.
She had seen the public chat before and knew that some people's tasks were consecutive, while others' tasks were independent.
Clearly, the tasks she undertook were all intricately connected.
Moreover, even though Xiao Cui had calmed down and was able to talk to him normally, she suddenly stopped talking and started crying again.
Lu Youyou could see clearly that when Xiao Cui first cried out, she was just yelling at the top of her lungs without shedding a tear.
It was only after crying a few times that I remembered the sad things and became truly upset.
Not right.
But Lu Youyou didn't know what was wrong for a moment.
All she knows for now is that she seems to have become involved in a monster family's plan.
As for what this plan is, she has no clue yet.
Xiao Cui's crying gradually subsided, and she whispered, "Sister, when are we going to see the monster merchant?"
Distracted by Xiao Cui, Lu Youyou simply gave up on her random thoughts.
Ultimately, they don't threaten her interests, and what these monsters want to do is none of her business.
"Wait a moment, I'll gather some things and then contact the monster merchant."
Because Lu Youyou had maxed out the Monster Merchant's favorability, she knew what the Monster Merchant liked.
She loves delicious food and anything that makes her child happy.
She first selected several recipes from five-star chefs at the Food Factory, then cooked them one by one, sent them to the Monster Merchant, and explained that Xiao Cui wanted them to be given to her by herself.
Next, Lu Youyou went to the gang group to ask for monster-specific toys or snacks, saying that they were for the monster merchant's child given by Xiao Cui.
The monster merchant's favorability towards Xiao Cui quickly rose to 61%.
The first task assigned by Xiancao has been completed.
Afterwards, Lu Youyou began to discuss countermeasures with Xiao Cui, deciding to increase the honey badger warriors' favorability towards Xiao Cui under the guise of martial arts training.
She found the honey badger warrior and told him that she had found a promising martial arts student, and most importantly, that he should respect his teacher.
The Honey Badger Warrior was indeed very excited and immediately asked Lu Youyou to use a summoning card to summon him into the dungeon.
Little Cui also lived up to expectations. Despite her seemingly weak and small appearance, she made rapid progress under the training of the honey badger warriors.
Lu Youyou watched in stunned silence. Was this the little monster's strength?
You should know that she was able to fight the honey badger warrior to a standstill only after drinking two bottles of human evolution fluid given to her by the honey badger warrior.
After a morning, the two fighters stopped.
Meanwhile, the honey badger warrior's affection for Little Green successfully rose to 60%.
The second task issued by Xiancao has also been completed.
The honey badger warrior wiped his sweat and came to Lu Youyou's side, sighing with emotion.
"Xiao Cui has a Soul Pill containing enormous energy within her body. Once its power is activated, she will progress rapidly. It's just that we don't know who gave her the Soul Pill."
Lu Youyou nodded, indicating that she understood.
The honey badger warrior chatted with Lu Youyou for a while longer before leaving.
Next, it's time to increase your favorability with the gold coin merchant.
