Chapter 114: Refining Fruit

What can Zhuang Yun say, of course, he could only nod.

Lu Jiu felt much more comfortable in her heart, it wasn’t easy to keep secrets.

Today’s meal seems to be more delicious than before.

Just like that, the matter of losing the vest of the first player was a matter of course. After the meal, the three of them tacitly cooperated to pack their things and return to the city.

Although now he knew that Lu Jiu was a pioneer player, Zhuang Yun didn’t ask other questions, as if it was still the same as before.

The three of them returned to the city. Out of intuition, Lu Jiu decided to ask the manager of the pharmacy.

The black scorpion poison sac they got before was handed over to the drugstore NPC, who made the venom into poison, and Lu Jiu kept a bottle.

At this time, many professional players were still clearing the field outside, the pharmacy was still relatively quiet, and there were no customers for the time being.

Before Lu Jiu entered the door, the manager of the pharmacy seemed to have a sense of it and looked at the door. The next moment the three of them stepped into the door.

“Manager, we are here again.” Lu Jiu greeted me like an old friend.

The store manager still looked like a fairy.

Shen Jufeng walked to the counter with long legs and took out the fruit just now.

The face of the cold goddess, who has remained unchanged for thousands of years, was a little surprised: “Tempered Fruit.”

Lu Jiu was playful as soon as he heard it: “Manager, do you know this? Is it poisonous, or can you eat it?”

The store manager looked at the fruit and then replied to Lu Jiu: “Tempered Fruit, as the name suggests, can achieve the effect of tempering. It can be used to improve the quality of potions, and it can be used to add deliciousness to cooking.”

Sounds like a good thing.

Lu Jiu continued to ask: “How good is the effect?” She noticed the slightly surprised expression of the store manager just now.

The store manager looked down at the tempered fruit, “Well, I didn’t expect you to find this fruit, it’s not easy to collect it.”

“Oh? Nothing happened when I picked it.” Lu Jiu clearly remembered that the fruit was picked off with light force.

The store manager’s eyes were full of meaning: “You will know when the time comes.”

“What exactly is it, sister, the beautiful store manager, you can tell me a little bit.” Lu Jiu tried to get more information by coquettishly flattering her.

The manager of the pharmacy looked cold and ignored her.

Shen Jufeng stared at the fruit, glanced at the store manager, and then said: “Okay, let’s go, we don’t clear the field today, go pick the fruit.”

There must be a reason for what the store manager said. No matter what the reason was that the Tempered Fruit was not easy to pick. Well, at least, it was easy to pick at the moment, so they must seize the opportunity.

Lu Jiu could only give up, and the three hurried out of the city again.

When they went out, Lin Zuo and the others just came back. Today Qing Ye and his team had two members who were seriously depleted of energy and blood. It happened that the potion was almost used up, so they decided to come back first to replenish their potion supplies.

Seeing Lu Jiu and the others walking past him as quickly as the wind, Lin Zuo stopped instead and looked back at the three of them.

“Captain, what’s wrong?” A team member asked.

Lin Zuo just shook his head and continued to go to the pharmacy, but he always felt that Lu Jiu and the others should have discovered something.

After leaving the city, Lu Jiu was more and more grateful that today was a foggy day, so they made a movement by picking trees, so no one else could see them.

They chose a place a little away from the city-state, where giant trees grow more densely.

Seeing that they were equipped with wings, Zhuang Yun volunteered and said, “Go up and collect them, and I’ll watch below.”

Lu Jiu smiled and said: “Don’t be stupid, you have to collect it too right now before any emergencies occur. So hurry up and collect as much as you can.”

So far, the suggestions given by NPC were reliable and credible.

Zhuang Yun was a little confused, “My wings haven’t been made yet, I’ll collect them with you when they are made over there…”

The three of them brushed the mantis boss nest once before, and he got a pair of wing materials.

Before he finished speaking, he received an email, and when Zhuang Yun opened it, he saw a cloud in it.

He has seen this cloud before. It was equipped by some pioneer players. Although it was pink, it was also a mount.

“This……”

Lu Jiu didn’t raise her head, “I’ll lend it to you for the time being, and there’s a gem you can put on your wings to increase your flight height.” After speaking, she looked up at him, “I just lend it to you, so don’t think too much, wait until you’re done your work before giving it back to me.”

Shen Jufeng had already taken out the pink cloud that Lu Jiu had given him before, and stood on it calmly, “I’ll go up first, I’ll contact you by email if you need anything.”

They generally don’t chat with private messages in the dialogue channel, and worry about getting the wrong channel and sending it to the announcement channel.

“Okay.” Lu Jiu has already equipped with wings, not clouds, but golden yellow wings, with the feather tips pointing down, with golden shimmer.

She wore these wings for no other reason, but because the color was quite similar to the current color of the canopy.

Soon Zhuang Yun was the only one left under the tree. Seeing that his two teammates had already moved, his mind moved, and the somersault cloud flew to his feet by itself.

He tried to step on the cloud and found he didn’t step on the air. Then he stood up, thinking about going up, and the cloud quickly rose into the air.

Zhuang Yun was a little afraid and squatted down, but he didn’t stop rising until the clouds reached the same level as the canopy. He pushed away the branches and squeezed into the trees.

Then he saw the tempered fruit hanging on the branches, in stark contrast to the yellowing leaves around.

At this time, he didn’t care about admiring it much. He moved very quickly, picked it up with one hand, and immediately put it into one of his backpacks.

There were about a hundred fruits in a tree, and picking was very simple. They can change trees in less than two minutes.

In a city-state in Qiuyu City that was attacked by strange birds, the residents were still in fear of wild monsters appearing near the city-state.

Who would have thought that these ferocious-looking strange birds were wild geese, with different levels, but they were indeed wild geese.

After killing them, they got wild goose meat.

Although they were worried that these wild geese and wild monsters will appear near the city-state, the rewards for killing these wild monsters were also what they need.

The female archer who reported to the city lord before, went to the field with her teammates to kill wild monsters.

The city lord of this city-state was a young man. At this time, the team he leads cooperates with the female archer’s team to kill wild monsters.

After killing a batch of wild monsters, the female archer rests for a while. Then she asked the city lord next to her: “Do you think this is a sign of the coming beast tide?”

The city lord observed the movement of wild geese and other wild monsters: “It doesn’t look like it. If it was the vanguard of the beast tide, their main target should be us, but I think most of them drilled into the canopy of the giant tree, as if… ”

He thought about it, and said: “It’s like their target is in the canopy, not us at all.”

“I think so too, but it’s still too weird.”

The female archer also feels this way, but the wild monsters have been targeting them all the time, and it was really strange that the main target of this attack was not humans.

“Should we bring this up in the city chat channel? There are still a lot of wild monsters going south, and there will be city-states that will be affected there.” She suggested.

The city lord shook his head, “Since the wild monsters flying from the north, at least there are city-states in the north that encounter them, but no one mentioned it…”

He didn’t want to mention it. He always felt that since no one said it, saying it was will be a wrong decision unconsciously.
