Chapter 93: Returning the gla.s.s ball random quest
Random quests were a common type of quest, but they were clearly different. That was because one didn't appear in a specific area and appeared randomly according to the lives of the citizens on the Lost Continent. It couldn't be accepted whenever one wanted after it appeared and would disappear after a while, which was usually a short amount of time. For example, this finding the gla.s.s ball random quest only lasted for five minutes. If no one accepted it in five minutes, then the quest will naturally disappear. If you took longer than five minutes to finish this quest……Un, this little girl would not wait for that long.
At the same time, the random quests could be considered a type of normal quests, so the rewards would not be that much better than those of normal quests. But some rewards given could be considered a bit more special.
Ye Tian Xie had always been a loving and caring person……In front of a helpless little girl, he would always act this way. Moreover, this quest was as simple as it could get no matter how one looked at it — it was simply finding a gla.s.s ball.
"Un, little sister, no need to cry anymore. I'll immediately find your gla.s.s ball for you."
He squatted down and reached his hand down the unclear hole……Immediately, Ye Tian Xie realized that this quest was not that simple. To him, it was even considered a little hard.
The hand that he reached down didn't touch anything. He couldn't find any kind of gla.s.s ball. This suddenly made him stuck.
If this were the real world, he would at least be able to find something to dig it up. Even if it was several meters deep, he could still dig it up. But in this game world, players had no way to interfere with the scenery. To be able to change the scenery, they would need a special destruction attributed weapon or item, but these kinds of items were rare and could almost never be found. Even with Ye Tian Xie's years of gaming experience, he had only ever heard about these kinds of things and had never actually ever seen one.
Seeing Ye Tian Xie reach forward with his hand, the little girl's eyes shined as she said, "Big brother, did you find it yet?"
Ye Tian Xie was silent for three seconds, then he smiled and said, "Little sister, wait a bit. I'll get it out for you immediately."
His eyes fell on the hole. Moving his lips tightly, he said in the lowest voice possible, "Guo Guo, go down and bring the gla.s.s ball out."
Guo Guo's body was only visible to Ye Tian Xie and only he could hear her voice. And no matter how low Ye Tian Xie's voice was, Guo Guo could still clearly hear it. This hole was too small for Ye Tian Xie to go down, but it was perfectly fine for Guo Guo to enter. The sleepy Guo Guo riding on Ye Tian Xie's shoulder looked down at the deep hole and she shook her little head, "Wu, I don't want to, I don't want to. It will make my cute dress dirty…….Also, also, that place is really deep and dark, what if there is a poisonous bug or something else in there…..I don't want to, I don't want to."
"Even if all the world's poisonous bugs were here, they still wouldn't be able to touch you……If you listen, then I'll buy lollipops for you."
"I don't want to……I still have a lot of lollipops to eat."
"I am your master, you should listen to me!"
"Yi? Why do I have to listen to you just because you're my master?"
"……Alright." Ye Tian Xie felt helpless and could only resort to his final move. He casually said, "If you help your master get that gla.s.s ball, then I'll have that girl make candied chestnuts for you tonight."
After living with Su Fei Fei for a couple of days, his understanding of her began to change everyday and it changed by a lot everyday. At the same time, it changed his understanding of rich girls quite a bit……Or rather, Su Fei Fei wasn't a normal rich girl. On the first day, he saw her courage and her stubbornness, but he had also learned about her tragic past……On the second day, he had learned about another side to her……There were a lot of rich people that didn't know to make food or do their own ch.o.r.es. This girl that was supposed to not care about clothes, food, or even putting the food in her mouth, this girl that was the daughter of the richest man in Asia…….Not only could she cook, the things she made were clearly too good for normal people to eat.
It was made for immortals to eat.
After eating the porridge she made on the first night, then from the three meals from the second day, Ye Tian Xie realized that from the deal he made with Su Luo, he had been the one to gain a lot.
"Candied chestnuts…….Candied chestnuts……Wa, wa, are you serious, are you serious?"
A mouthful of saliva dripped down from Guo Guo's lips and slowly began to wet the front of her snow white clothes. She forced her saliva back and with a "sou" sound, she flew off Ye Tian Xie's shoulders and charged into the deep and tiny hole.
Seeing the impatient Guo Guo, Ye Tian Xie was speechless……He actually had to use Su Fei Fei to "order" Guo Guo who, even though called him master, had never actually listened to anything he said.
Was there another master as defeated as him?
After a little effort, the snow white figure burst out of the hole. Ye Tian Xie immediately saw that she was holding a small gla.s.s ball in her hand…….Guo Guo was a very strange being. She could use her body to touch stuff like a normal person, but if someone else tried to touch her, they would pa.s.s right through her…….The only exception was Ye Tian Xie. This kind of phenomenon defied all logic and Ye Tian Xie had no way of understanding how it worked.
"Got it, I got it!" Guo Guo threw it down from high up in the sky and it fell right in Ye Tian Xie's hands, then she lightly fluttered onto his shoulders. She turned her body around and after making sure that there was no dirt, she let out a sigh of relief. She pulled on Ye Tian Xie's hair and said, "Master, I've got the gla.s.s bead. You have to remember to make sister Fei Fei make candied chestnuts for me. You have to remember……I really want to eat it……If Master is just lying to me, then Guo Guo will be very angry……"
Ye Tian Xie nodded like a chicken pecking rice. He turned around and placed the gla.s.s bead in front of the little girl.
"Here, little sister. See, your gla.s.s ball is already back."
The little girl revealed a face of joy. She took the gla.s.s ball in her hands and said with a happy face, "Thanks big brother, this is my favourite gla.s.s ball. This gla.s.s ball is much more prettier than my other gla.s.s ball, it is just like a crystal. Also, this was given to me by my mother. I love my mother, only my mother is sick right now. The doctor said she's about to…..Big brother, thank you."
"Ding……Little girl Sha Sha's favorability towards you has increased by 25."
"No need to thank me." Ye Tian Xie smiled and said, but he had his doubts in his mind……The quest wasn't just for favorability, right?
"That's right, mother said if that if someone helps you, you have to pay them back……Big brother, this is for you."
A large white bead appeared in the little girl's hand and she pa.s.sed it over to Ye Tian Xie, "This is an elemental illumination light. Mother said that there is a lot of light element within it and as long as it's shaken, it can release the light element within and light up any kind of dark place. A elemental light can be used for a long time, but this one is about to be used up. It can still last for another three minutes. It was thrown away by my father, but mother said that we have to always save, so I secretly took it back……Big brother, I'll give this to you."
When the white gla.s.s ball fell into his hand, it felt like it didn't weigh anything. Seeing this gla.s.s ball that could provide light for three minutes, Ye Tian Xie gave a gentle smile and said, "Thanks little sister, I will treasure it."
When this little girl mentioned her "mother", the tender love and deep sadness made his heart have a kind of inexplicable tingling……It was only this kind of pure emotion that could make his heart strings that were never moved, actually feel emotion. He remembered this little girl's name — Sha Sha. Even though she was just an insignificant resident of this world and he might never see her again, he would still remember her name. Even he didn't know why.
[Author note: Remember this little girl Sha Sha's name and every word she's said. After another two-three million characters, she will appear again…..]
[TL Note: That is literally a thousand chapters later……]
