Spirit Master Girl: Contracting with an SSS-Level School Beauty at the Start-Chapter 83: Emphasize it again! One quilt cannot cover two different types of people!
Chapter 83: Chapter 83: Emphasize it again! One quilt cannot cover two different types of people!
"This Secret Realm Origin is of the Artifact Refining type; it can be used in advancing the quality of your Artifact Spirit," Xiao Zhan said while fiddling with a pebble in his hand, addressing Ye Youlong.
Not all Secret Realm Origens can be used on Spirit Masters, their effects differ based on the objects they materialize from.
The best of Secret Realm Origins are those of the ’Spirit Fruit’ and ’Spiritual Medicine’ types, both Spirit Masters and Artifact Spirits can absorb them.
The next best are the Refining Materials type, which can only be used by the Artifact Spirits and have no effect on Spirit Masters.
However, Xiao Zhan and Ye Youlong are bound by a Life and Death Contract, so this doesn’t affect him much. If it were some other equal Contract, then only Artifact Spirits could enjoy such benefits.
But generally, if somebody really gets such good stuff, the Spirit Masters would probably scramble to form a Life and Death Contract with their Artifact Spirits.
There are other less valuable ones, such as a river or a mountain.
These types of Secret Realm Origins are characterized by their size and contain the same level of energy. Even if they are found, it’s hard to extract them since the entrance to the Secret Realm is only so big.
If you try to remove them like Yu Gong moving the mountains, it won’t have any effect; you have to remove them in their entirety for it to work.
Then there’s the most dangerous type of Secret Realm Origin, which materializes as a Demon Beast.
These Demon Beasts, as they embody the entire energy of the Secret Realm, are usually immensely powerful and incredibly obstinate, preferring death over submission.
If you dispatch an expert to kill it, the Secret Realm Origin will disappear.
Not killing means missing out on it.
So, generally, if one encounters a Demon Beast type Secret Realm Origin, don’t even think about it, there’s virtually no chance.
Ye Youlong, returning to his humanoid form, also looked at the pebble containing the Secret Realm Origin and said, "This Secret Realm is newly born, and the energy of the Secret Realm Origin is at its most vibrant state; absorbing it now would greatly enhance us."
"Yes, but this Secret Realm is too unsafe; the absorption of the Secret Realm Origin requires an absolutely safe environment. We can’t take this risk now, and besides, there’s still a group of enemies that hasn’t shown up. We must find them first."
"Okay, then let’s deal with the last group of people first."
"Okay."
Thus, the two began to search for the last group of people in the Secret Realm.
A day later, Xiao Zhan and his companion successfully found the last group; they were already dead, which explained why they hadn’t appeared to compete for the Secret Realm Origin.
At this point, only Xiao Zhan and his companion were left in the Secret Realm.
"Now only eight days have passed, and we have dealt with everyone; we can leave early," Ye Youlong said.
However, Xiao Zhan shook his head, revealing a mysterious smile, and then he took out two Storage Bags from his pocket.
Seeing the two Storage Bags, Ye Youlong was first stunned, then the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, showing an expression of somewhat embarrassed admiration.
"I’ve suddenly realized that forming a Contract with you was a wise decision," Ye Youlong said.
"Why?"
"Because... you know how to manage the household well. Hmm... how about I take care of external affairs while you manage the internal ones?"
"I refuse!"
Xiao Zhan said seriously, "I am a man who takes his own keep; handling external affairs is a must for me. I can be involved internally, but I absolutely won’t manage internal affairs!"
"Involved internally? What do you mean?"
Another phrase Ye Youlong didn’t understand.
Xiao Zhan chuckled, "You’ll understand later."
Ye Youlong felt that Xiao Zhan’s gaze seemed a little strange.
"Alright, enough nonsense. We don’t have much time left, this Secret Realm is much larger than the White Emperor Secret Realm, and there are definitely a lot of Spirit Fruits in it. Although we don’t have a map now, collecting a bag full of Spirit Fruits shouldn’t be a problem, right?"
As Xiao Zhan shook the Storage Bag in his hand, how could he not try to obtain some benefit for the Federation while putting his life and death on the line?
However, Ye Youlong suddenly became quite serious, "I think this isn’t very nice. We’ve already taken away the Secret Realm Origin. This Secret Realm will start to wither and disappear in three to five years. Now that these Spirit Fruits have been picked, they won’t grow anymore..." ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhan was slightly taken aback; he didn’t expect her to say such a thing.
Thinking about it also made sense; the most precious Secret Realm Origin had already been taken by them, they really should leave something for others.
If they could still grow, it wouldn’t matter, but now they can’t grow anymore.
"So what do you mean?"
"Well, we should at least get two bags, right..."
Xiao Zhan: ???
"...Otherwise, there won’t be any in the future," Ye Youlong added.
Xiao Zhan: ...
Looking at her expression, eager to scour the entire Secret Realm, it was almost as if he could hear the sound of being slapped.
And being slapped by his own hands, no less.
Damn, this face-slapping came too fast.
He just thought, how could two different kinds of people sleep in the same bed?
"Let’s start now then. The Secret Realm is still somewhat dangerous, so let’s not split up. We’ll search for the Spirit Fruits together."
"Okay."
...
Time swiftly moved on to the final deadline.
Outside the Secret Realm.
All the members of the Federation gathered again at the entrance, very much looking forward to seeing their own people emerge from the Secret Realm.
Among these hopefuls, some were confident of victory, almost certain. Others were nervous, with hope and trepidation mingling. Still, others were despondent, just hoping for a miracle.
Smith stood not far from Song Chao’an, his hands in his pockets, his mouth arched with absolute confidence, and his eyes occasionally glanced toward Song Chao’an, as if trying to read something from his face.
After a while, it seemed he couldn’t bear it any longer.
He approached Song Chao’an.
"Mr. Song, you seem very confident in your Federation’s participant?"
"If I’m not confident in him, should I be confident in someone else?"
This was pretty much a pointless statement. Which Federation present wouldn’t be confident in their own participant?
If you don’t trust your own participant, would you trust someone else’s?
Smith was choked up, feeling a bit annoyed.
Remembering how he hadn’t gotten his way with him a month ago, he decided to try his luck again.
So, he gestured to his two henchmen, Nicholas and Cadena.
Both already being experienced henchmen, they understood Smith’s intentions clearly.
Immediately exchanging glances, they began to put on a two-person act.
Nicholas said to Cadena, "Miss Cadena, who do you think will win this battle?"
"Mr. Nicholas, forgive me for saying so, but your question is a bit irritating. Yet I’m still willing to state my position; personally I definitely support the Forest Federation, I have absolute confidence in our participant," Cadena said.
"I also have strong confidence in the Sunset Federation’s participant. Miss Cadena, as the participants are fighting for the Federation’s honor with their lives, I think we should also do something for them."
