Chapter 238

The Sinuofu clan has opened five shops in the camp, which shows that they have a big family and a big business.

Gao De went to the largest of the five "shops."

"This guest, the Blue Butterfly Crystal Powder you mentioned, we really don't have stock. Although Blue Butterflies are not rare, the crystal powder is not used in many places, so we didn't collect it specially. Sorry."

Inside the tent, the Sinuofu tribesperson responsible for operating this "shop" said politely.

Just as Gao De thought, with the specifications of this "shop," the boss configured is an Ice-Born magic user, who can understand his language and communicate with him.

"Then can you help me keep an eye on collecting it? I will stay here for about a week. During this time, if you can take out Blue Butterfly Crystal Powder, I will take it all. For this, I can pay extra remuneration," Gao De said again.

The other party thought for a moment, nodded and said: "Okay... but what remuneration can you take out?"

"Is this okay?" Gao De took out another first-circle ice snow wolf fur.

It and Blue Butterfly Crystal Powder are both first-circle materials, but ice snow wolf fur, as a top-notch "warm equipment," is clearly much higher in value in the Northern Realm than Blue Butterfly Crystal Powder.

The boss's eyes lit up instantly. If this business is done, they can also make a small profit.

"Deal!"

"Then thank you very much," Gao De said politely.

"In addition, do you have any Northern Realm maps for sale?"

The matter of spell potion materials is temporarily settled, and he asked about the map he cares about most, but received the latter's continuous shaking of the head.

"Maps, there are some in the tribe, but they will not be taken out for sale in this shop. Sorry." The boss's attitude was good, but the intention to refuse was also very firm.

"Then can you help me apply to your tribe? I can use ice marrow for trading," Gao De took out his biggest bargaining chip.

"Guest, it's not that I don't want to do this business, it's that I don't have this ability. Maps are things that the tribe has explored little by little over the years. How can they be easily sold to outsiders?" The boss was unmoved.

This is a true fact, not a bargaining tactic.

In this world, maps are very precious things, and in the primitive and wild Northern Realm, it is even more so.

Seeing the other party's expression and posture, Gao De understood that this matter was indeed not negotiable.

Unless the Sinuofu clan has something to ask of him, or he can take out some bargaining chip that the Sinuofu clan cannot refuse, then there is a play.

But Gao De thought about it, and couldn't think of what he had that would make the Sinuofu clan willing to exchange for a map.

Temporarily having no clue, he didn't make meaningless entanglement and left from the tent like this.

Subsequently, Gao De looked for a place to live in the camp.

Naturally, there is no such thing as a hotel here.

The most common way for outsiders who want to stay overnight in the Sinuofu camp is to find Sinuofu tribespeople, negotiate with the other party, and spend some supplies to exchange for lodging.

Gao De thought for a moment and came to the tent where Lana lived, and made a sound gently outside the animal skin curtain.

Soon, Lana's voice came from inside, "Who is it?"

A few seconds later, Lana lifted the animal skin curtain and walked out of the tent.

Seeing that the visitor was Gao De, she showed a surprised expression, "Isn't it not dark yet?"

She thought Gao De came for "class."

Gao De made the previous "transaction" gesture again, then pointed to another tent next to Lana's tent that was clearly a size smaller, and made a gesture of rest.

Lana thought for a moment and asked uncertainly: "Do you want to stay at my place?"

Gao De nodded.

He turned out another Ice Soul Stone from his pocket and handed it over.

Gao De's shot can be said to be very generous, although part of the reason is that he has no other valuable and sellable things on him.

Seeing that Ice Soul Stone, Lana was instantly moved.

Although she couldn't use the Ice Soul Stone, the value of the Ice Soul Stone was there, and she could completely sell the Ice Soul Stone later to exchange for the items she needed.

She considered it seriously, but in the end, she didn't resist the temptation of the Ice Soul Stone.

"How long do you need to stay?" Lana asked.

Gao De made a "seven" with his hand, and then made a "ten."

"Seven to ten days... That's fine, but this stone of yours can exchange for many things. If you only need to stay for seven to ten days, it's clearly unfair to you."

"How about this, if you don't mind, I can also provide you with three meals during this time. Of course, it won't be very rich, it's just what I usually eat, and I'll prepare an extra portion for you."

"How about it?"

Gao De nodded, indicating that he needed it.

In the Northern Realm, obtaining food and preparing food are too troublesome and extremely time-consuming.

Being able to save trouble is naturally the best.

Although he has high requirements for the taste of food, in fact, Gao De can still endure hardship when he should.

"Then I'll go and clean it up for you. That was originally my tent. After my parents left, I moved to their tent, and my tent was used as a warehouse, putting a pile of sundries," Lana pointed to the tent Gao De liked and said.

"But don't worry, all the facilities, including the most important fire pit, are there."

Just as Gao De thought, there were no adult men in Lana's home.

It's just that what Gao De didn't expect was that there was no one else, only Lana alone.

Fortunately, the Northern Realm people have a relatively bold personality, and their concepts are not as conservative as the outside world, otherwise, his behavior of requesting lodging overnight from a "single woman" would definitely not be accepted.

Lana does things very neatly, so after more than half an hour, she cleaned up the tent.

The fire pit that had already been lit brought warmth to the tent.

Gao De glanced at it and found that Lana just simply cleaned up the sundries, and there was still dust accumulated in many places.

It's not that she was lazy, mainly because Northern Realm people are not as particular as outsiders.

But since he had to live here for a while, Gao De cast 【Prestidigitation】 by the way, acting as a "cleaning technique," and cleaned the tent again until it was as bright as new and no dust was seen.

So much so that when Lana entered the tent again with some "bedding," she almost didn't recognize it, thinking she had entered the wrong tent.

"Did you do it?" Lana couldn't believe it.

Gao De spread his hands, indicating it was not a big deal.

"Your outsider spells are really strange..." Lana muttered.

She put the things down and left tactfully.

After Lana walked away, Gao De put down the package on his body.

At this time, the pocket on his chest moved, and then a clear and thin voice drilled out:

"Magic user!"

Gao De was shocked and couldn't help but pat his head: actually forgot this little ancestor.

But he didn't dare to let Fu Luo La know that he had forgotten her, and said as usual: "Lady Fu Luo La can show her head."

As soon as the voice fell, Fu Luo La drilled out of his pocket, flew at the height of Gao De's eyes, and then stared straight at Gao De with wide eyes.

"Is Lady Fu Luo La unpresentable?"

She was still brooding.

Before, when lining up to enter the Sinuofu camp, Gao De put her in the pocket of his chest and signaled her not to show her head.

"It's not like that."

"Then what is it?" "Because Lady Fu Luo La is too presentable. I saw that the two guards were particularly concerned about non-human creatures. If you show your head, I'm afraid they will stare at you."

"Magic user, aren't you going to protect Lady Fu Luo La?"

"Yes, I will protect Lady Fu Luo La, but when going out, it's better to have one less thing than one more thing," Gao De induced step by step.

Fu Luo La didn't speak for a while, just stared at Gao De's eyes and looked at each other with him.

Gao De didn't avoid it either, looking at Fu Luo La's clear eyes frankly.

After a while, Fu Luo La withdrew her gaze, flapped her small wings, flew to the entrance of the tent, carefully poked her head out to take a look, and then shrank back.

"Magic user, there are so many mushrooms here!"

In Fu Luo La's eyes, tents are large mushrooms.

"..."

"Yes, many," Gao De responded helplessly.

Children are like this, one second they are in the east, the next second they jump to the west.

The sky soon darkened.

Dinner was roast meat made by Lana using the snow wolf meat Gao De used to exchange for magic plants, which was a rich meal.

After finishing dinner and cleaning up, Lana entered the state and began to teach Gao De Aisi language.

Of course, although she is relatively clever, as a "teacher," she is definitely unqualified and has no rules at all.

The teaching method Lana adopted was the crudest: she spoke and Gao De remembered.

At first, she started with "noun teaching": Lana directly read the Aisi language pronunciation of common items in life to Gao De one by one, and read whatever she thought of.

This teaching method definitely belongs to misleading children in general circumstances.

However, under the premise that Gao De mastered 【Tongtong Language】 and could clearly understand the specific meaning of every syllable Lana made, it was not an inefficient teaching method.

Gao De's Aisi language learning career soon got on the right track.

Undoubtedly, Gao De is an excellent student.

If the student is excellent enough, the teacher's teaching method is actually not very important.

After spending two nights, after he remembered the Aisi language pronunciation of most items, Lana's teaching content turned into "short sentence teaching."

And Gao De learned Aisi language at night, while practicing during the day, and went to the shop every day to see if the Blue Butterfly Crystal Powder he needed had arrived.

In addition, he wandered around in the Sinuofu camp to see if he could find a breakthrough to buy a map, and also practiced his Aisi language by the way.

On the fourth day of entering the Sinuofu camp, the Blue Butterfly Crystal Powder Gao De had been waiting for for a long time finally arrived.

One hand "paid money," one hand delivered goods, and after paying a piece of ice snow wolf fur, Gao De obtained a full ounce of Blue Butterfly Crystal Powder, and the extra was considered a gift.

Inside the tent.

Gao De borrowed a small pot from Lana and took out all the magic potion materials he had collected.

He placed the small pot on the fire pit, and then put all the materials into the pot regardless of the order.

As the temperature rose, these materials immediately formed some wonderful changes, no matter what their original form was, they soon merged into one and turned into light green medicinal liquid.

When a faint medicinal fragrance rushed toward his face, the spell potion was considered successfully prepared.

Gao De didn't dislike the hot mouth, and poured the freshly baked medicinal liquid into his mouth—even if he was scalded, it could be considered as brushing progress for 【Adaptation】.

The fragrant medicinal liquid melted in his throat, surged into the spell star sea, and turned into a cloud of mist.

Subsequently, he cast 【Guidance+】 on himself, and then meditated and sat down, directly starting to try to construct the spell model of 【Wild Agility】.

During these days, he had long taken the time to convert the spell model of 【Wild Agility】 into the corresponding coordinate system and firmly remembered all the ternary arrays of the spell model nodes.

For this spell, Gao De can also be considered to have been looking forward to it for a long time.

As long as you master it, it will be much easier to act on the snowfield in the future.

This time the luck was also good. After failing only once, in the second attempt, Gao De successfully constructed the spell model of 【Wild Agility】 in the spell star sea.

Looking at the new entry that appeared in the spell column, Gao De showed a satisfied smile.

"Let's see what changes there will be."

He focused his attention on the yellow "+" sign flashing behind 【Wild Agility】 and clicked decisively.

The first-circle origin belonging to 【Snowfield Hyena】 surged out from "Fengling Yueying" in an instant, merged into the newly constructed spell model, quickly took root and sprouted, and glowed with new brilliance.

And 【Wild Agility】 at this moment also changed to 【Wild Agility+】 (Transmutation, 1st circle):

You call upon the Wild Soul to assist you.

Extra: The Wild Soul you call upon will be able to advance by absorbing energy and gain new abilities.

At the same time, there are many mysterious pieces of information inexplicably emerging in Gao De's mind.

These pieces of information mainly explain the specific effects of the changes brought about by 【Wild Agility+】.

The Wild Soul called by 【Wild Agility】 was originally an illusory soul body, which could only do simple things introduced in the spell effect.

And the change brought by 【Wild Agility+】 has one and only one: the Wild Soul will be able to absorb energy and advance with it.

A total of three advancements can be made.

The first stage is to absorb a certain nature of energy to shape the illusory soul body into a solid body.

This is the foundation of everything.

In this step, the nature of the energy absorbed by the Wild Soul will determine the future ability direction of the Wild Soul.

For example, if the absorbed energy is fire element energy, then the Wild Soul will advance to the Flame Demon Soul in the future, and the shaped solid body will possess abilities similar to fire elementals, and the future ability direction will also be toward fire element development.

But there is one point to note: the energy provided to the Wild Soul must be of the same nature.

If it is allowed to absorb multiple energies of different natures, the Wild Soul will collapse on its own due to the conflict and disorder of energy natures.

The second stage is to condense the energy core.

As long as this stage of advancement is completed, the Wild Soul will possess the ability to absorb free energy from the outside world on its own, so as to complete its own advancement.

A bit similar to the cultivation ability of a magic user.

Otherwise, purely relying on the supply of external resources to absorb, even if there is a mine at home, it will sooner or later be eaten empty.

The third stage is the final form.

At this time, the Wild Soul already possesses a solid body and an energy core, and can continue to grow stronger with the passage of time and the accumulation of energy. As for where the upper limit is, it is unknown.

"Fengling Yueying" seems to only allow the Wild Soul to possess the ability to absorb energy, but in fact, what it bestows is an infinite possibility of direction and an unlimited future... Gao De muttered to himself.

The combination of rare spells + Fengling Yueying always brings him unexpected surprises.

However, there is also a limitation, that is, from then on, the Wild Soul he calls will be the same one.

If it dies prematurely due to some accidents, the next Wild Soul called will be a "white board," equivalent to "level clearing," and everything has to start from scratch.

Of course, this cannot be counted as any limitation.

If the Wild Soul can be resurrected an infinite number of times in the best state, then it is not a spell, but a bug.

Frost Soul... Gao De seems not to have to consider the advancement direction of the Wild Soul much.

Because there is only this choice in front of him.

After all, he is now in the Northern Realm, and the most convenient energy for the Wild Soul to absorb is ice element energy.
