Chapter 570: Signing the Contract
Ah, this ......
Who designed the Elemental Leprechaun AI?
Natsume's face was strange.
The elemental goblins licked very seriously and carefully.
Natsume saw her little pink tongue swirling along the edge of the kernel, licking it with a look of enjoyment.
And as the little one licked it, the kernels in her arms began to shrink rapidly, and the luster became more and more dim.
That's a sign of a run out of magic.
It is clear that the abundant magic in the nuts has been absorbed by the little one.
Seeing this scene, Natsume's heart moved, and he had some guesses.
Don't...... Do elemental goblins feed on magic?
Is she sucking the magic?
After licking the kernels, the elemental elf showed a satisfied expression and smacked his lips in dissatisfaction.
She tossed the lost kernel on the ground, giggled at Natsume a few more times, and then took the unpeeled nut she had picked first, and flipped away with butterfly-like wings again.
"Hey! Wait a minute! β
Natsume hurriedly chased after him.
Of course, he didn't forget to mark the location of the nuts, and he came back later and picked them all and took them away.
This kind of nut full of magic is still very sought-after among players, and it can sell a lot of contributions.
And, if you really hook up with a leprechaun, it's also a good food!
This time, the elemental elves did not fly high into the air, but shuttled through the forest like butterflies.
The dense forests in the forest are not an obstacle for the petite elemental elves, but Natsume is different.
It is obviously much more difficult to chase a goblin in the forest than to chase a red dragon in the sky.
Even if the elves are naturally agile, they can't resist the speed of the elemental fairies.
Fortunately, the speed of the goblin is not as fast as before, but has a feeling of freedom and playing while flying.
Natsume changed into shoes with the spare acceleration effect in the storage ring, added light body magic to herself, and followed closely behind.
Even the speed is faintly surpassing the other party.
It's just that whenever Natsume is about to catch up with the little guy, the other party's speed will suddenly increase.
Often, it is accompanied by a burst of laughter like a silver bell.
And when the distance between Natsume and the elemental fairy is widened, the other party will slow down again, and return to the state of flying freely and freely.
Natsume: ......
After coming so many times, even if he was sluggish, he noticed that this little guy seemed to be playing with him......
"It's really as naughty as the official website says......"
Natsume's face was strange.
However, the corners of his mouth are rising wildly.
He liked the cute little guy more and more.
Quirky and quirky, mischievous and cute......
That's too poignant, okay?!
Elemental Elf Race High!
He thought about it, and simply tentatively slowed down his speed, trying to get away with it.
And sure enough, after Natsume made a look like he was tired of chasing and didn't want to chase, the speed of the elemental elf also slowed down.
There's a play!
The corners of Natsume's mouth hooked slightly.
He slowed it down even more...... In the end, he simply stopped.
And seeing that Natsume stopped chasing, the little goblin stopped flying forward.
She circled, flew back, and circled around the "panting" Natsume.
Not only that, but the little guy also held the nut in one hand and put the other hand on the side of his face, stuck out his tongue and made a cute grimace at him.
It's just that her strength doesn't seem to be enough, and nuts are still a little too big for her......
One of her hands didn't hold the nut well, and as she grimaced, the nut slipped out of her arms and fell straight to the ground.
The goblin was taken aback.
She quickly fell to the ground, picked up the nut again, and then carefully wiped the dirt on it, sniffed it with a wrinkled nose, and giggled again, with a satisfied expression.
Natsume: ......
This......
It's too cute, isn't it?!
No, the heart can't stand it.
He took a deep breath and walked over gently.
It's just that the fallen leaves under my feet that have accumulated for I don't know how many years have been accumulating made a creaking sound......
The little one was immediately alarmed.
She looked up and glanced at Natsume again, then stuck out her tongue and grimaced slightly, then giggled again as she flew away with the nuts in her arms.
Natsume: ......
"Cute is cute, but how long is it going to slip me!"
He sighed.
Looking up at the sky looming between the branches and leaves, the canopy was already getting darker.
If he continues to chase him, he will have to spend the night in the woods tonight.
"Let's stop her."
Scratching his head, Natsume directly put all the acceleration magic he could use on his body and chased after it as fast as he could......
The little one didn't fly too far this time.
Natsume quickly chased after him.
However, when he caught up, he found that the elemental fairy had landed on a bush and was looking at something seriously.
The sky was getting darker, and the light in the forest was getting weaker and weaker, but the little goblin with a soft glow was like a pearl in the darkness.
And somehow, Natsume seemed to see a hint of worry in her expression.
Well?
His heart moved.
Tiptoeing over, this time the little one did not run away.
Not only that, but after he approached, the goblin glanced back at him and raised his index finger in a cute booing motion.
Well?
Natsume raised an eyebrow.
He approached quietly and followed the little one's gaze, and then saw a dying beast lying in the bushes.
It was a monster that looked like a rabbit on the Blue Star, but it had a much longer tail than a rabbit and a small sharp horn on its forehead.
Natsume knew about this kind of monster.
This is the Horned Rabbit, a common low-level magical beast in the Elven Forest, with delicious meat...... Ah no, cute on the outside.
The horned rabbit was injured, and it seemed to have been attacked by other monsters, and a bloody hole was torn from its side, and its internal organs could be seen.
This injury can be said to be quite serious, and for wild monsters, it is almost the same as waiting for death.
Natsume looked at the little one, and he saw a trace of worry in the little one's eyes.
Behind the eccentric, there is a kindness in the heart.
Natsume thought.
His heart moved, and then he crouched down.
"It's hurt, and if it is left unchecked, it may not last long."
Natsume said.
The little goblin's pointed ears twitched slightly, and his expression seemed to be even more worried.
The corners of Natsume's mouth lifted slightly.
He rubbed his hands together and said:
"But don't worry, I'm a druid, and I've learned healing spells, so I can revive it."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hands and chanted a spell.
Pale golden light converged in his hand and shone on the horned rabbit's body, and the hideous wound healed quickly with a speed visible to the naked eye.
The little goblin watched Natsume intently, his big shining eyes wide.
Soon, the injuries on the horned rabbit were completely healed, but it still looked quite sluggish and couldn't even move.
"It has lost too much blood, and although the injury is healed, it still needs to recuperate for a while."
With that, Natsume picked up the horned rabbit and cast a [Nature Whisper] to convey the wish of "Don't move, I won't hurt you".
The horned rabbit struggled for a moment.
But it quieted down after hearing the "natural whisper", and instead curled up in Natsume's arms and fell into a deep sleep.
Seeing this scene, the little goblin's eyes widened.
She put down the nut, then flitted her wings and flew onto Natsume's shoulder, grabbing his shoulder and looking curiously at the sleeping horned rabbit, and couldn't help but lean out and stretch out her white fingers to carefully poke its sharp horns.
Feeling the sudden weight on her shoulders, smelling the floral scent of the little goblin, her cheeks rubbed against her magnificent wings......
At this moment, Natsume felt like she was in a dream.
He was so excited that he almost fluttered, and there was only one word left in his brain:
Lovely!
No way......
More and more I want to kidnap this little guy home.
Dragons, elf Lori or something are weak!
Goblin race high!
He felt that he would not be able to ask for any magic pets in the future, as long as an elemental goblin!
Natsume pondered in his heart how to open his mouth to invite, but before he could speak, a crisp and immature voice came from his consciousness:
"What's your name?"
Natsume's heart moved, and he turned his head to look at the little goblin.
The leprechaun had already flown off his shoulder and was perched on a bush in front of him, looking at him curiously with wide, bright eyes.
In the dim woodland, her whole body exudes a soft halo, just like a fairy in a fairy tale.
"What's your name?"
The voice rang out again.
It's a leprechaun.
However, she didn't speak, but looked at Natsume with a frown.
It is the ability to communicate with the mind......
His heart moved.
"My name is Natsume, a druid of the Chosen One of the Elves."
He smiled.
"The Chosen One......
Natsume noticed that the leprechaun's eyes seemed to light up.
Does she know the Chosen One?
Natsume was a little surprised.
He had seen the elemental elves born from the World Tree with his own eyes, and he thought that the other party might be like a blank sheet of paper and didn't know anything. But now it seems...... Not really.
"That's right, I'm the Chosen One, Natsume, the Chosen One. What about you, what's your name? β
Natsume asked.
"Me?"
The leprechaun tilted his little head.
For the first time, there was a hint of confusion in her eyes.
I saw her shake her head, and Natsume's consciousness came from her somewhat low voice:
"I don't know, I don't seem to have a name......"
For a moment, Natsume noticed that the light on her body had dimmed a little, and her wings had dropped slightly.
Lovely!
Natsume shouted in his heart.
In reality, he said quietly:
"So...... How about I give you a name? β
"A name?"
The leprechaun looked up and looked at him curiously.
Natsume felt as if she saw a glimmer of hope in her large, pure, bright eyes.
Lovely!!
He shouted again in his heart.
In reality, continue to be quiet.
It's just that the corners of his mouth can't help but rise wildly:
"yes, I'll have a name, huh...... What do you think of the name 'Jingle Bell'? β
Without knowing this, Natsume remembered the name of a pocket character he had seen in a certain book before.
"Jingle Bell?"
The leprechaun tilted his head, then giggled.
"That's good, I'll call it jingle from now on."
"Jingle Bell!"
She flew up happily and circled Natsume several times.
Then, pointing to Natsume:
"Natsume."
He pointed to himself again:
"Jingle Bell."
Keep going in circles happily.
Lovely!!!
Natsume shouted in his heart.
This little guy is too pure and cute, isn't he?!
However, just when Natsume, a big man, was flooded by the girl's heart of the little goblin, the goblin stopped again.
She pinched her waist with both hands and looked at Natsume with a smile:
"Natsume!"
"Huh?"
Natsume replied with a smirk.
"You've been chasing me, do you want to make a contract with me?"
Natsume: ......
This little guy already knew it!
Ahem, maybe it's too obvious to yourself?
However, although he was apprehensive in his heart, in reality, Natsume nodded vigorously:
"Yes! I want to think so much! I want to make a contract with you! Be friends! Be a contract partner! β
Hearing his words, the leprechaun giggled.
I saw her pinch her chin and think about it for a while, and then nodded slightly:
"Clankle thinks it's okay."
"You're a nice guy, and I like your magic."
Love my magic?
Natsume was slightly stunned, and then remembered the time when he was frantically squeezing magic from the ball of light on the World Tree before......
Natsume: ......
It's definitely this little guy who didn't run away!
And then, there is ecstasy:
She agreed!
Hard work pays off!
After waiting on the World Tree for so many days, I have been chasing it from the morning to the present today, and I have finally been recognized!
At this moment, Natsume was so excited that she almost burst into tears.
"That...... How do I sign a contract? I...... What do I need to do? β
He was even a little incoherent.
"I'll come."
The leprechaun's voice sounded in his consciousness again.
Then, Natsume saw the other party fly into the air, gently closed his eyes, and the light on his body continued to converge.
Gradually, a gorgeous contract circle formed in mid-air.
"Please stretch out your hand."
The leprechaun said again.
Natsume heard this and hurriedly did so.
He put his hand into the circle, and then the whole circle suddenly brightened, then contracted sharply, and turned into a burst of light and threw it onto the back of Natsume's hand......
At the same time, he heard a soft sound from the system:
γDingββγ
[The wind elemental fairy "Jingle Bell" proposed a partnership contract to you, do you accept it?] γ
Accept!
Natsume hurriedly replied in the system.
Then, he felt the magic in his body begin to be rapidly withdrawn, and a burning sensation came from the back of his hand......
The mana extraction lasted for more than ten seconds, and the light on the back of Natsume's hand also lasted for more than ten seconds.
When everything was calm again, Natsume noticed a wonderful spell pattern on the back of his hand.
At the same time, he felt as if something was faintly more in his consciousness.
Looking at the game system again, Natsume was pleasantly surprised to find that there was another line below the contract partner column, and the words Elemental Fairy Jingle appeared under the red dragon Lelia.
Indenture...... It's done!
β¦β¦
Time flies by and day passes in the blink of an eye.
Night falls.
Li Mu and Demacia dragged their tired bodies back to Gray Harbor, glanced at each other, and sighed at the same time.
"Really...... This flower fairy is too good to run, right? I chased all the way to the Dark Mountain Range, but I didn't catch up, and I was all in the back......"
Demacia looked depressed.
"I did catch up and see each other's figures, but these flower fairies are just too vigilant, and they all ran away as soon as I got close......"
Li Mu said with a wry smile.
"Huh? Brother Mu, did you actually see the real body? Do you have a screenshot? β
Demacia asked excitedly.
"Yes, yes."
Li Mu nodded, then opened the chat interface and sent two screenshots to Demacia.
"Wow! Is it so cute?! Loved, loved! I've got to get one! I already have a premonition that the age of dragons is coming to an end, and the future will be the age of flower fairies! β
Demacia looked excited.
"Let's figure out how to improve friendship with each other first, this is not a Warcraft, but belongs to the NPC system. In addition, these little guys are so vigilant, it is estimated that it will be very difficult to sign a contract, not to mention that they have to have the ability to find each other. β
Li Mu reminded.
"Take your time, at least we've barely seen the flower fairy's true body, uh, although I've only seen the light cluster...... But it's much stronger than others! Brother Mu, do you know, now many people on the forum are still asking why they haven't seen the flower fairy or anything when the update time is up, our progress is already very fast hahaha......"
Demacia said triumphantly.
"You're smiling at fifty steps and smiling at a hundred steps of self-comfort."
Li Mu shook his head.
Then, he looked at the time again and frowned:
"It's so late, hasn't Natsume come back yet?"
Today is the weekend.,Nature's heart has a regular guild bonfire event.,Generally speaking, online guild members who are available will come.,And Natsume, who is partial to life, is basically never absent.γ
"Hey, it's lost, but the direction he's chasing is the least number of flower fairies, and it's estimated that it's not as good as us, maybe I haven't even seen the real body......"
Demacia laughed.
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a familiar and somewhat excited voice coming from behind him:
"Brother Mu, Dema, the Sprinkle family is back!"
It's Natsume.
"Look, say Cao Cao Cao arrived."
Demacia smiled and subconsciously turned his head.
And then...... Rounded eyes:
"it!!"
