I have nine left, which equals 225 Contribution Value, enough to buy many, many second-level resources.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yuan had wondered about this issue before. A single Luminous Fruit Tree can produce multiple Luminous Fruits, and it matures twice a year. Doesn’t that mean each Luminous Fruit Tree can reliably provide a large amount of Contribution Value?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after asking his brother, Chen Yuan realized things weren’t that simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Spirit Plants require extremely high conditions in terms of soil, water quality, air, temperature, and other external factors; they are prone to poor development or even death during the growth process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Accelerating growth through Source Point means directly bypassing the highly risky growth period, eliminating the risk of premature death for Spirit Plants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"First, focus on finding resources for Duck, then find some for the little guys.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yuan needs to enhance the security of his farm, and Duck is a part of that solution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He directly found the Water Type resources page, looked for second-level resources, and sought out suitable resources for Duck among the myriad of items:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Lotus Leaf, valued at 13 Contribution Value, can improve the water quality of water sprayed by Water-type Pet Beasts.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Purify water quality?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What use is this? Does it make the dishes cleaner when washing? Or make the soup more delicious when cooking?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait.\" Chen Yuan suddenly thought of something, muttering to himself, \"Duck needs to water daily, improving water quality might benefit the Spirit Plants?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Source Point can make Spirit Plants mature directly from their growth phase, seedlings still need Duck’s tireless watering day and night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, when more Spirit Plants grow, Chen Yuan’s Source Points can’t accelerate each Spirit Plant’s growth; many will still rely on Duck for watering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yuan remembered the Lotus Leaf, left the current page, and continued to search.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, his eyes lit up:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Bright Moon Dew, valued at 20 Contribution Value, has immense benefits for Water-type Pet Beasts.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blazing Fruit has the same effect; it not only effectively enhances the growth level of Pet Beasts but also improves Skill Proficiency, covering all aspects of Spirit Plants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yuan added it to the shopping cart, browsed through it once more to confirm there were no better options, and noted it down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yuan looked at various resources noted in his memo, and nodded in satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He chose a resource that can enhance physical hardness for Iron Head, valued at 15 Contribution Value.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Iron Head excels in close combat, currently without long-range attack means, so its physical quality needs strengthening—its frontal double blades and metal-like skin hardness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Electric Flying Cat, he chose a resource that enhances Thunder-type Skills’ power, valued at 20 Contribution Value.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Electric Flying Cat, unlike Iron Head, excels in long-range attacks and can fly high in the sky, launching continuous lethal attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Thunder-type Skills are inherently powerful and destructive; boosting their power is the quickest way to enhance combat strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Bean Chicken, suitable resources are fewer. After much consideration, Chen Yuan decided to use Wind Language Grass, needed for Cola’s advancement, to upgrade it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After confirming, Chen Yuan sent these resources’ names to Zhou Xu, indicating two of each type, and the latter replied quickly: \"Okay, I will keep an eye on it now. It should take one or two days.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then I’ll go to town tomorrow to send the Luminous Fruits.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>....\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Late at night,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yuan sat cross-legged on the bed, eyes lightly closed, maintaining a state of meditation, as a Jade Pendant on his chest emitted a faint glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, two dazzling spots slowly appeared in his vision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good evening, Orange, Watermelon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You could tell Pomelo was still in a cheerful mood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yuan nodded: \"Good evening, both.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Junyue had gradually gotten used to this embarrassing greeting method, but each time he went through it, he instinctively felt like he had joined some mysterious organization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yuan started the topic: \"I have two Luminous Fruits with me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Wenning immediately spoke: \"I’ll take them all. How do you want me to transfer the payment?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yuan took a deep breath at this straightforwardness—the wealthy don’t even need to ask the price; straight to the transfer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shook his head: \"No need for money, I’m giving them to you for free.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Wenning instinctively replied: \"No way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yuan laughed: \"Aren’t we a Fruit Factory?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a slight pause, he continued: \"The intel you’ve provided recently is worth far more than these Luminous Fruits.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Junyue felt embarrassed; he typically remained a silent listener and rarely provided any information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Jiang Wenning did indeed share a lot of content unknown to the two, saving them from many detours.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Jiang Wenning no longer refused: \"Alright, I’ll accept them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Junyue opened his mouth but couldn’t bring himself to reject it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, he earnestly said: \"Orange, I owe you one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He indeed needed this Luminous Fruit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just tell me the delivery address; it doesn’t have to be your home address, just wherever you can receive it.\" Chen Yuan added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Wenning’s voice was bright: \"Shanghai, Donghuang Beast Taming Academy Headquarters South Gate, phone number 133xxxxxx3150.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Junyue said solemnly: \"Yun Province, Lishui City, Chaoyang District, Lishui Town, phone number 1531xxxxx0314.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Got it, noted.\" Chen Yuan nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a Beastmaster, Chen Yuan’s memory significantly improved; if he retook the college entrance exams, he was confident he could become an elite 985 achiever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing this conversation, Li Junyue surprisingly said: \"Orange, you live in the mountains, be extra cautious these days.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How so?\" Chen Yuan asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Junyue replied: \"Recently, we’ve received many calls from the public about Extraordinary Creatures invading villages and attacking livestock.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yuan chuckled: \"I encountered this too—a group of Violent Cloud Sparrows tried to snatch the Luminous Fruits from the trees, but the guards at my farm drove them away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Wenning exclaimed in surprise: \"What farm? It even has guards?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yuan laughed heartily: \"They’re just a few Pet Beasts that volunteered to work at the farm; I just provide room and board.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Junyue: \"Just a few....?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had been working tirelessly for so long, barely maintaining a single Ink Tree Spirit, yet Chen Yuan’s farm had several?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Volunteering to work?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It feels like a nefarious capitalist farm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Wenning noticed Chen Yuan’s earlier comment: \"The Luminous Fruits on the tree? Didn’t you obtain these Luminous Fruits by accident?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yuan explained: \"A tree at home unintentionally evolved into a Luminous Fruit Tree.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But earlier you asked me how to cultivate Spirit Plants?\" Jiang Wenning was puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yuan replied: \"That was accidentally obtained from a Blazing Fruit kernel.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Jiang Wenning blinked and couldn’t help but say: \"I’m increasingly curious about your farm—with several Pet Beasts and Luminous Fruit Trees and Blazing Fruit Trees—are you a real farm tycoon?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yuan shrugged: \"I wish I were.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If that were the case, he’d hire a batch of Pet Beasts and then not have to manage anything daily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But achieving that goal is still a long way off.\u003C\u002Fp>",1205,"2026-06-06T03:13:42.215Z",1,"novelbin.me","878ca5de2687e7620ff34d2ec47db6c12699b2f0249807c3583e2966f843e9b2","beast-taming-i-m-really-just-a-forest-ranger-chapter-78","beast-taming-i-m-really-just-a-forest-ranger-chapter-76",313,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbeast-taming-i-m-really-just-a-forest-ranger-cover.jpg"]
