Summoner, He is Never Alone

Tangtang is a big jelly in the shape of a small mountain. In fact, it is not very convenient to use as a mount. After all, there is no suitable place to sit. But fortunately, it is big and soft, and it can artificially create a depression, which is similar to sitting on a lazy sofa.

Seeing that Tangtang didn't understand, Ye Xu simply grabbed its body and climbed up. Tangtang thought Ye Xu was tickling it, and Guji was even more excited, twisting and twisting in excitement, almost throwing Ye Xu off. Hurry up and pat it, signalling to be more obedient, this time I can finally climb well.

Slime's body is actually easy to climb, because it is a little slippery, and he struggles to get up. But since he has tried everything, he naturally won't give up halfway, at least climb to the top and try if he can.

When Ye Xu was halfway up, Tangtang suddenly moved.

Originally, he climbed from the side. After all, he had to pass Tangtang's mouth and eyes from the front, which was inconvenient. But he suddenly felt a force on the left side gently pushing him to the side, turned his head and saw that the big jelly on the left side protruded a little, like a hand reaching out through a thick quilt.

At the same time, the small pit that had been slipping under his feet also expanded into a larger platform, holding him firmly. He was stunned for a while, but before he could react, he was pushed by that "hand" and moved to the right on Tangtang for a short distance, and came directly in front of the big jelly.

At this time, a "hand" stretched out from the right side, and both sides embraced Ye Xu, as if protecting him in his arms. After being full for a while, I felt that this posture was not good, so I adjusted it again, and turned Ye Xu, who had no resistance, so that he leaned his back on his arms.

Then, the platform under the soles of the feet shrinks, the jelly where the knees are bent to the thighs is convex, and the back is concave, actively forming a concave "seat". Ye Xu just fell into the slime jelly sofa in such a dazed manner, his sitting posture completely fitted the human body, making it uncomfortably comfortable.

Tang Tang was very happy when he saw him sitting up, and started to twist with him in his arms, like he was hugging some beloved doll.

Ye Xu touched the jelly that was in front of his waist, the two jelly hands had now merged into one to form a seat belt, which was very tight and would definitely not let him fall out. I didn't expect Tangtang to look silly and a little clever.

"Do you understand what I mean?" Ye Xu asked Tangtang curiously.

When he turned around, he found that Tangtang's mouth and eyes were above his head, and he became more and more like a doll in his arms. However, because Tangtang's mouth is very inconspicuous, you can't see it when you are far away from it, so from an outsider's point of view, you can only see the big eyes on top of his head, and it feels like he is sitting in a special shape decorated with eye patterns. on the big chair.

Tangtang happily rubbed Ye Xu's head with the jelly block that looked like her chin, and opened her mouth excitedly and said, "Ha!"

This was the first time Ye Xu had seen Tangtang speak. Those screeching noises in the past were not from his mouth, but the small movements of jellies rubbing against each other, which were essentially no different from the rustling of leaves. The last time I heard movement in its mouth and crunched Mo Beitang to eat it.

It's a pity that Ye Xu couldn't understand Tangtang's words, so he could only unilaterally think that Tangtang already understood what he meant. Now that you are seated, let's go straight.

Ye Xu pointed to the front: "Let's go."

"Hey!" Tangtang responded cheerfully.

After agreeing, the jelly started accumulating, squatting slightly, compressing the jelly in the lower body, and then jumping up abruptly, landing ten yards away with a "boom". The rural roads could not stand this stimulation, and the dust flew all over the sky.

Ye Xu: "..."

Ye Xu jumped up and down by inertia, and was looped back by the jelly seat belt. He bounced up and down on the jelly sofa, feeling like he was riding a spring car, which was pretty fun.

Not hearing Ye Xu's laughter, Tangtang rubbed his head suspiciously: "Huh?"

Although he still couldn't understand the Slime language, Ye Xu always felt as if he understood what he was trying to say - don't children like this kind of game very much? Why didn't the big baby in my arms smile?

Ye Xu couldn't laugh, and a little baby should be able to laugh happily, after all, they love to play the game of lifting high. Of course, the premise is that you are not frightened by the loud noise.

The only thing that made Ye Xu happy was that slime, as a clean big jelly, smashed the top of the mountain every day, but it wouldn't be stained by the dust, blades of grass, or even muddy water that he smashed. Because it has a transparent shield on the outside, similar to the mage shield.

However, this protective cover can't increase its defense, it just keeps the dirt out, so even if Tangtang keeps rubbing and rubbing on the ground, there is no dust under her butt. Now, the protective cover also protected Ye Xu, preventing him from being splashed all over his face by the flying sand.

Tangtang, who didn't laugh at the big baby, was a little confused, but it was a simple slime, and there were no negative emotions such as loss in life, so he quickly forgot about it again. Since the big baby doesn't like to laugh, then don't laugh, it plays by itself.

Next, Ye Xu watched Tangtang constantly "boom boom boom", smashing the rammed dirt road more firmly along the way. However, after the evolution of Tangtang, the distance between the top of Mount Taishan increased from five yards to ten yards, so the places where it was pressed were separated by ten yards, resulting in a small pit with a diameter of two yards every ten yards on the road.

Ye Xu looked back at the uneven road that had been tossed, and could only silently say sorry in his heart. The big deal is that he will go back and take Tangtang a few more times, try to hit all the positions once, and completely flatten it.

The speed of the blue-grade slime is exactly the same as that of the master, so Ye Xu thought of using it as a means of transportation. But I didn't expect Tangtang to learn to use skills without a teacher, and it's pretty good.

The topping of Taishan every five seconds is almost an instant skill, and it can advance 10 yards at once. Originally, its speed was about one yard per second, but now he can advance 15 yards every five seconds, which is three times faster than Ye Xu himself, which greatly saves Ye Xu's time.

Ye Xu finally understood why Tangtang only added skills and changed his attack speed from 50% to 100%, so he could rank as a blue summoner. It turns out that it can also act as a mount. Without this use, it would be considered green at best.

Ye Xu silently recorded a video and sent it to Mo Bei. A good brother is for showing off. You must send him a copy of what you have but your brother doesn't have.

At the other end, Mo Bei, who was still trapped in the Novice Village and trying to upgrade the team, was withered. He was so sour like a lemon that was over-salted: "The profession of Summoner is too buggy, isn't it?"

"Is there?" Ye Xu pretended to be surprised, "Maybe it's because my Tangtang is too advanced. This is the ability only a level 30 slime has."

Mo Bei was still very sour, and his tone was sour: "I don't know when we players can have pets..."

In fact, most of the summoners are really half-useless. The primary slimes are easy to OT and cannot provide attacks. The attack power is far lower than the normal level, and those summoners do not have a second summon, and can only rely on Slimes barely survive. Whether a summoner is strong or not is the summons. There is no player like Ye Xu who has three summons: 2 blue, 1 purple, and 3 summons within a few days of the game being launched.

Therefore, it doesn't make sense to say that a summoner is too powerful. To use Ye Xu to measure a normal summoner is a rogue. But Mo Bei has never seen a few summoners. The summoners he will meet are basically in the top 100, with two summons in hand, far exceeding the average level, which makes him misunderstood the profession.

"It's only been four days since the server was launched. How about I delete my account to train as a summoner?" Mo Bei asked.

Ye Xu had to beat him: "Now the inaugural summoner has only one slime, and the trading house doesn't have any good summons to sell. Even if there is, you can't afford it."

He is not a pervert like Ye Xu who can kill monsters in groups. A dad relies on the team to gain experience, and the coins are shared equally by everyone. It is not easy to save money. Mo Bei also had to buy a lot of blue potion, so he was afraid that he didn't even have three gold coins on him. This amount of money would not be able to buy a summoning item that would satisfy Mo Bei.

"Why haven't the krypton gold channel been opened yet?" Mo Bei scratched his hair irritably.

Ye Xu was also depressed, but the game company just didn't let it go, just watching players try to farm monsters in order to save money under the slogan of rational consumption. Ye Xu suspects that this is the bad taste of the dog company. He doesn't make money if he has money. He just wants to watch the good show of the players.

Mo Bei said quietly: "Of course it's not in a hurry to make money. I don't know how much it sold for the game cabin and game helmet. It's not short of money at the moment..."

"Lingyuan" is a holographic game that must be played with specific equipment. Ordinary computer iPads are useless, so they can only be purchased with money. The price is actually not cheap, not to mention the game cabin costing 100,000 yuan, and the game helmet also starts at 3,000. The game company promises that as long as the game account does not exceed level 20, it can return the game in full at any time after abandoning the game.

But even so, many people still suppressed their enthusiasm for the game, and did not enter the game for the first time, but planned to wait for the price of the helmet to drop before starting. At this moment in the game are either professional players or masters who are not short of money. Both players are eager to open up the game currency trading platform. Professional players are like selling coins for money to subsidize their households. Ordinary players want to make money to reduce the difficulty of the game.

"Maybe the trading platform hasn't passed the national review, so it's not allowed to open." Ye Xu thought about it for a while, but still said a good word for the game company.

Mo Bei: "Haha." Then his game helmets are selling quite hot, and he hasn't been caught.

"Forget it, I won't talk to you anymore, I'm going to continue to level up. I almost used the wrong skills just now. If my teammates are blamed for dying, I'll be a sinner." Mo Bei cut off the call and went to work seriously, Ye Xu also About to arrive at the destination.

I told my brother about the things that slime can travel, so that they know what to do, and then jumped off Tangtang.

Tangtang was a little reluctant to let him go, but Ye Xu insisted, so he could only obediently retract his jelly seat belt. Ye Xu gave him a pack of candies and let him eat slowly, and he immediately became happy again.

The Rose Camp was smaller than Ye Xu expected, perhaps because the number of refugees was limited and they didn't need a large area. This kind of wild camp without a city is inherently more dangerous, and if you live in a scattered area, it will be more prone to accidents.

There are quite a few players in the camp, but more are NPC adventurers and aborigines. Ye Xu had never met other players along the way before, but he encountered quite a few here, most of whom had to go into the forest to do quests.

He observed around and found that the aborigines and adventurers actually got along quite happily, perhaps because those adventurers were foreigners.

Ye Xu had observed before that the aborigines in Liuquan Town usually carry lotus-patterned ornaments, which are said to be their local special amulets, but these adventurers rarely wear them. I don't know if they are afraid of being targeted by the aborigines because of the amulet, or they are really not residents of Liuquan Town.

Players basically don't stay in the camp, and they rush back to the forest after supplies, but the adventurers are not in a hurry. They formed groups of three or five, sitting directly on the ground by the roadside, making fires and roasting meat on the spot. Eating and talking, talking about past experiences or expectations for this adventure.

"The atmosphere here is really good." Ye Xu tried to talk to an aborigines who sold medicines, "What medicines do you sell here?"

The aborigines looked at Ye Xu for a while, and determined that he was an "adventurer from a distant continent", and smiled more kindly: "I have a lot of medicines here, all of which are placed in the house, you can come in and take a look. "

Although he said that, after Ye Xu stepped into the cabin, the potions on the shelves around him were just decorations. The shop interface that pops up in front of them is where players can buy potions. There are more than 20 kinds of potions neatly lined up with prices clearly marked on them.

Ye Xu had the illusion of shopping on Taobao, because there were words like "stock 26" and "stock 57" under each potion. This is a small apothecary shop, except that the stock of red and blue potions exceeds one thousand, everything else just means there are dozens of bottles.

There was really not enough blue potion in the package, so Ye Xu bought some. He looked at the potions with special effects. There were all kinds of potions, but there was nothing that he particularly needed. In the end, he only bought a few bottles of invisibility potions.

Invisibility potions are expensive, and the cost is relatively low. Selling dozens of bottles of red and blue potions is not as valuable as a bottle. Therefore, the store owner smiled more and more enthusiastically at Ye Xu, and tried to sell other expensive potions in the store.

Ye Xu bought a bottle of the most expensive disguise potion, and it was only 1 gold coin anyway. He and Xiaoling lost a few group attack skills and earned it back. This thing usually looks useless, and the critical moment of doing a task may be the key prop that determines success or failure.

After buying the Yirong Potion, the owner's favorability for him soared, and he went directly from an ordinary customer to a major customer. He laughed so hard that he wanted Qing Ye Xu to eat a lamb chop that he grilled himself.

"My skills are very good, and no one in the whole camp can make lamb chops that are better than mine!" the owner boasted.

Ye Xu bought the potion in order to get closer and get more information, so naturally he would not refuse, and followed the shopkeeper to the open space at the door. People here seem to be accustomed to sitting on the ground, basically without chairs and benches, and the shopkeeper is no exception. He sat down by the firewood, rekindled the firewood, and took two lamb chops from his backpack.

"This is the rib from the wild lamb that my brother just caught this morning. It's absolutely fresh." He didn't lose money at all for entertaining big customers with such a cost-free thing, and he was very warm and sincere.

Ye Xu pretended not to see his careful thoughts, and chatted with him a lot about Rose Forest while grilling lamb chops. He claimed to have taken over the task of the mercenary union to find a rare medicinal herb in the forest, and the shop owner did not doubt it.

"I know that herb." The shopkeeper lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "In the past few days, many teams have come to look for herbs. Look at the adventurers around, at least half of them have taken that quest."

Ye Xu was startled: "So many people?"

The pressure of this competition is too great, and there are so many people who go into the forest to look for it every day, but they haven't found it yet?

"Yeah, but a lot of people didn't come here specifically to find herbs. They all took on other tasks related to the forest, and also took this one by the way. I guess they were thinking that maybe they would find that herb with good luck, anyway. There is no punishment for not completing the task." The shop owner sighed.

The quest of the mercenary union is not good. The quests given by normal NPCs are generally single, and even if they can be repeated, there is a limit on the number of them, and they do not interfere with each other. For example, the village chief's task of buying sugar, each buys his own, and after completing it, you can get a reward. Another example is the task of killing monsters. After killing enough, you can submit it.

But the mercenary union is different. Most of them can only be rewarded by the first person who completes it. One step behind is nothing. The herbs this time are pretty good. If there are a lot of them and the pharmacists are in high demand, then maybe anyone who takes the herbs can get a reward. But if the pharmacist only needs one plant, the person who handed it in later will have to return without success.

Fortunately, this herb seems to be quite valuable. Even if the pharmacist who issued the quest does not accept it, it can be listed on the auction house or sold to other pharmacists. It's a pity that the herbs are hidden a little deep, and no one can find them.

Ye Xu couldn't help but wonder: "Is this kind of medicinal herb really appearing in the forest? Could it be a false rumor?"

The owner of the shop didn't know, he could only shake his head to express that he was not optimistic: "I guess 80% of the time, or the first person who discovered the herb has long since picked it up."

To be fair, this herb can be sold for a lot of money. Since people have discovered its existence, why not pick it up and sell it, and wait for others to find it? As long as a piece of news can reach one's own ears, then there must be thousands of people who have already received the news one step ahead, and to follow the trend to make money is basically to accompany it.

"I don't think the pharmacist who issued the task seems to be in a hurry." Ye Xu thought about his line of thought, and thought it was reasonable, and analyzed it, "Maybe the first person who picks up the herbs will sell them directly to him. , but he wanted more, so he spread the existence of the herbs and issued a mission to find someone to pick it up."

This is much more cost-effective than paying someone to go to the forest to find herbs. If you hire someone, whether you can find it or not, you will have to pay the salary. Where can he hire someone in such a big forest. The quests that can be released are different. Adventurers are not afraid of death, and they will flock in for rich rewards. With so many people acting together, the chance of finding herbs is very high, and he does not have to pay the wages of those who return empty-handed.

The quest rewards are indeed rich, but compared to hiring someone to enter the forest, it is a drop in the bucket. Taking a step back and saying that if no one completes it, he has nothing to lose. The promised task reward is still in the union warehouse. After canceling the task, he can get it back. At most, he will give the union a little announcement fee.

No matter what, Ye Xu was not very optimistic about this task. He basically gave up the idea of ​​completing the herb quest by the way, and decided to concentrate on the camp quest. However, in order not to make the aborigines suspicious, I still had to pretend to enter the forest a few times, just to go in and find the monster group to gain some experience.

After eating the lamb chops, Ye Xu heard a lot of gossip about the Rose Camp from the owner, and also inquired about the growing place of a lot of valuable medicinal materials. The other party told him that this was of course not pure good intentions, but hoped that Ye Xu could bring more medicinal materials to sell to him, and he also needed raw materials for medicine.

However, there is nothing related to the mission in so many miscellaneous news, and Ye Xu can't directly ask you if there is any way to make people feel wrong. So I can only press the list for the time being, wait until I get closer to the shopkeeper, and then inquire about what Saiya and the others have encountered in the camp.

Unfortunately, the mobility of adventurers is too strong. After many days, the adventurers who were in the camp at the same time as Saiya should have all gone, and those around are probably newcomers. Otherwise, it is also a good way to ask adventurers, without worrying about arousing the vigilance of the aborigines.

Ye Xu wiped his mouth, waved goodbye to the shopkeeper, and took Tangtang into the forest to collect herbs. He has a high success rate in the collection technique. He hopes that after bringing a lot of herbs to the shopkeeper, he can ask for something else.

When Tangtang saw that he was leaving, she immediately moved and followed. Its normal forward movement is a drift type. After all, it has no legs and slides straight forward. After catching up with Ye Xu easily, he stretched out his jelly hand and forcibly took him into his arms.

"Hey!" Tangtang made small movements quickly, Ye Xu was pushed all the way up by Jelly before she could refuse, and nestled into the Jelly sofa that was nearly one meter above the ground. When it was done, it barked happily, sounding very proud.

After all, the big baby returned to its embrace, gurgling.

Ye Xu was a little helpless: "...I want to enter the forest, it is inconvenient for you to carry me."

The slime was so huge that many trees in the forest were only a yard apart, making it impossible to get through.

He originally planned to put Tangtang away and enter with a little spirit with strong survivability and attack power. At most, summon another shadow and be ready to block the knife for him at any time. After all, the shadow is fast and can catch up. As a result, being interrupted by Tangtang like this, it is not easy to put it away.

Tangtang relied on her simple-mindedness and didn't understand Ye Xu's words, so she forcibly carried him into the forest. Ye Xu had no choice but to direct Tangtang to walk away from a wide area, so as not to get stuck by a tree.

As a result, Ye Xu quickly discovered that it didn't seem to be that troublesome to go through the forest while sitting on Tangtang's body. Anyway, it saved a lot of trouble. There is no road in the forest, weeds are overgrown, and some places are blocked by branches. It takes a lot of effort for people to pass.

Tangtang is different. He is tall and jumps. If he can walk, he will directly roll over it, and if he can't, he will jump over. I didn't know how many weeds and vines were crushed along the way, and some fragile low-level herbs were directly crushed into shriveled leaves, completely unusable.

Ye Xu pretended not to see it, he didn't pick it anyway, as for whether the person who went into the forest to collect herbs would scold his mother... Cough, what does it have to do with him, Ye Xiaoxu? It's candy candy!
