Chapter 37

So it was the power of the fruit.

However, right now, Keqing was indeed the most suitable for the situation.

As for the others, forget it.

But this guy, how many secrets has he hidden from me?

Even though I gave him my first kiss.

He still keeps things from me.

Looking at Ningguang’s resentful gaze, Su Han touched the tip of his nose.

This really can't be blamed on him.

Who knew the mission reward would be a Devil Fruit.

[PS: New book setting sail, begging for support! Begging for flowers, evaluation tickets, monthly tickets... begging for all support!!!]

[Chapter 45 was banned for "driving," it’s unlocked now.]

Fortunately, Ningguang didn't ask too many questions and simply expressed some concern before leaving with her entourage.

Until her figure disappeared from sight.

Keqing then said doubtfully, "I feel like Sister Ningguang seems a bit unhappy. Is it just my imagination?"

"Ahem... Never mind that. Hurry up and do your mission."

"Mm."

With the Hana Hana Fruit, Keqing's combat power had naturally improved significantly.

Of course, she was still weak.

But for a level-one task, she could complete it easily.

Keqing opened the All-Heavens Task Group and selected an independent mission.

A dialogue box appeared before her.

[Would you like to accept a private mission?]

[Notice: Once you accept a private mission, you will be directly pulled into the mission world and cannot return until the mission is completed!]

⑧

[Note: The difficulty of the mission world is random, but will not exceed your current group level!]

"Yes!"

⑥

As the thought crossed her mind, her body instantly vanished from the spot.

⒈

When Keqing regained her vision,

0

she had already appeared inside a damp forest.

⒐

[Mission: Kill fifty Goblins!]

7

"Looks like it's a level-one mission."

Keqing gripped her sword and walked deeper into the forest, soon encountering some green-skinned dwarves wielding crude weapons.

②

They charged toward her.

(

Shouting in strange tones.

Ling

"Too slow..."

Long

A Thunder Wedge flashed.

)

Keqing appeared among the goblins; accompanied by flashes of lightning, they were wiped out without even letting out a scream.

Looking at the corpses scattered on the ground,

Keqing couldn't help but feel amused—these creatures were even weaker than Hilichurls.

Well then.

An easy mission isn't a bad thing.

She shook her head and continued with the task.

However, this dark, dense forest made it impossible to distinguish directions, making Keqing briefly feel as if she were in a maze.

At this point, not only were goblins hard to find,

she could barely recognize the path anymore.

Keqing frowned slightly—the mission still required forty more kills. What should she do?

Suddenly, she remembered her fruit ability.

So she closed her eyes.

Activated her power.

Instantly, countless eyes and ears sprouted on the trees within a three-hundred-meter radius.

At that moment, a group of dwarves passed by one of these eyes.

There were about fifteen of them.

"Found them!"

Keqing felt delighted, turned, and dashed toward the left.

Soon, she located that group of goblins.

Then she ran off in another direction.

Undeniably,

the Hana Hana Fruit was truly excellent for reconnaissance.

Simply by scattering eyes and ears.

Everything within a three-hundred-meter radius can be received.

Only fifteen minutes.

Keqing quickly completed the independent task.

[Ding... Congratulations on completing the private task. Task difficulty: one star. Congratulations on earning ten thousand points!]

[Ding... Congratulations on completing the private task. Reward obtained: Goblin Recruitment Contract.]

[Goblin Recruitment Contract]: You may spend Mora to recruit goblins. The goblins will not disappear until they die, but beware—these goblins do not possess high intelligence.

"So fast?"

Looking at Keqing who had appeared before him.

Su Han was somewhat astonished.

It's only been a few minutes?

She already finished the task.

Could it possibly be helping an old lady cross the street?

Keqing said happily, "The task was simple—slay fifty goblins in the Dark Forest. I didn't expect the power of the Hana Hana Fruit to be so useful.

Gathering intelligence from now on

will be way too easy...

And also, did you know? Although I haven't cultivated Observation Haki, by spreading my eyes around, I can achieve a similar effect."

I can see the movements of enemies behind me!"

You don't know until you try.

Once used, it’s shocking.

The power of the Hana Hana no Mi is far more terrifying than she imagined.

For example.

In the battle just now, Keqing condensed four eyes on the tree trunks.

And she herself also had a pair of eyes.

That equals six eyes, 360-degree all-around observation of the battle.

Sneak attack?

It simply doesn't exist.

This was the first time she had experienced such a battle.

It was absolutely exhilarating.

This... isn't this just a security camera?

Su Han gave a thumbs up, praising Keqing for her talent.

If it were someone else, they would probably only be able to do what Robin did, pulling off little tricks and such.

This is the difference in comprehension between people.

Having just obtained the fruit.

She could already apply it to combat.

No wonder she could become one of the Liyue Qixing at such a young age; this is her capability.

"By the way, don't independent missions have rewards? What did you get..."

Last time with Beidou’s mission.

She got a genetic modification serum.

It’s still being researched by Sucrose in Guili Plains.

Don't know how the analysis is going.

"A Goblin Recruitment Contract, spend ten Mora to summon one Goblin, with a cap of five hundred.

Can be recruited once a month.

Do you know, Su Han?

Those green-skinned dwarves are too weak.

They are completely useless."

Speaking of this summoning contract.

Keqing was speechless.

Goblins that aren't even as good as Hilichurls, what’s the point of summoning them?

It’s a pure waste of Mora.

But Su Han didn't think so; he even felt that Keqing’s reward was a bit too heaven-defying.

These Goblins.

Aren't they classic laborers!!!

Can be recruited for ten Mora.

That’s too cheap.
