Chapter 109: Guinness’ Book of World Records in Building Trenches

"Who wants a banana?" Li Chunhua asked, placing the four ten-meter-tall trees next to the fences before crossing the entrance. For some reason, she could not store the trees in her inventory. Otherwise, she will uproot more of them.

She planned to replant them inside the territory in order for them to be fruit-independent, and she tried to ask the new lackey for some banana desserts while at it.

(ˉ﹃ˉ)

"Uhm, Master, that’s not a banana tree." That’s clearly an intermediate wood tree...

The rest of Siri’s words were stuck in his throat when Li Chunhua began to shake one of the trees. The tree almost became bald, with most of the green leaves piled on the ground.

But the shocking thing was that there were dozens of blue bananas that dropped!

Astounded, Siri picked one and used his advanced appraisal skills.

[Item Name: Tropic Banana

-Grade: Bronze

-A special variety of banana that was only grown by friendly imps. Extremely toxic when consumed.

-A necessary component of some poison formula.]

Li Chunhua gathered the blue bananas in her arms before sharing her intentions: "I will ask Chef Long guy to make us a tableful of banana delicacies."

Banana delicacies?

Siri instantly withdrew his attention from the banana on his hands and planned to tell Li Chunhua of its toxic properties.

But when his eyes landed on her again, his master had already eaten two, with only the peels left on her hand.

His oblivious master, who wasn’t aware of the item’s toxicity, even licked her lips and praised the banana for being delicious. "Hmm, this is so good, especially the strange flavor added. Some hints of herbs and spiciness."

Siri: Σ(っ °Д °;)っ

A second later, Siri quickly patted Li Chunhua’s back with his hands while anxiously saying, "Spit it out, Master! Spit it out! It’s poisonous!"

"What? That was poisonous?!" Li Chunhua looked at the bananas still left on the pile of leaves and on her arms, and the peels on her hand.

Her thoughts were occupied by the images of a white dumpling turning into a blue one before dropping dead.

Friendly, my foot! Those monkeys should be named Poisonous Imps!

Little Mantou and Little Ginseng were equally shocked as they stared at the blue peels on her hand. The two immediately joined Siri in smacking her back.

The three Salted Fish ’loyalists’ had tears streaming from their eyes and kept spouting advanced funeral eulogies about missing Li Chunhua when she’s gone.

"Master, I will leave gifts on your grave every year."

"Ji ji ji!" (Master, I will be an obedient little ginseng when you’re gone!)

"Master! You are the greatest human I’ve ever encountered!"

Li Chunhua: "..." Hey! I’m not dead yet!

Contrary to the gloomy atmosphere surrounding them, Martial Aunt Elga, who was listening with fervor, was looking forward to Li Chunhua’s demise.

Unfortunately, a certain someone’s stomach that was built to withstand the most drastic and exotic cuisines in the whole galaxy, handled the poison like a pro.

Li Chunhua let out a burp.

Beep-

[Your tolerance for Tropic Banana’s poison reached the maximum.]

[You’ve gained Tropic Banana Poison Immunity (P).]

"I’ve gained another poison immunity skill!" Li Chunhua exclaimed before eating another blue banana. "It really works!" She no longer burps!

Siri, Little Mantou, and Little Ginseng: "..." Their tears were wasted.

Elga: "..." Never mind. Crooked people always live longer than others.

-----

The blue banana incident ended with Li Chunhua telling Siri and the two little chibis of the apparent ’good’ news.

Inside the living room, Li Chunhua opened the Earth Points Shop.

[Welcome to the Earth Points Shop!]

So the Master’s original home was called Earth?

"But Master! How did you manage to access it? Did you bribe the system?" Siri’s heart raced fast when his eyes skimmed the variety of items in the shop.

Little Mantou and Little Ginseng were curious. The two climbed on Li Chunhua’s shoulders and stared at the screen.

Siri’s happiness was short-lived when Li Chunhua made a ’he he’ sound before confessing about the special event and the death envoys that chased her, the rewards given to her, and the possibility of them encountering death envoys daily, before asking the Elf, "Brother Siri, we’re best friends, right? Best friends got each other’s backs."

Siri: "..." What if he says no? He was already plagued by the problems his bad luck often causes, and now his master has brought another burden on his head. He was about to honestly respond a ’no’, when Li Chunhua replied.

"I’ll buy a light element magic tower blueprint, items with light elements, and mana ores!"

"Yes, we’re best friends, Master! How could you think of me as someone who would abandon you?" Siri immediately scooted closer to Li Chunhua, as if they had really known each other for a long time.

Li Chunhua breathed a sigh of relief, especially after she recalled what happened after the event ended.

[The Special Event: Baby Death Envoy’s Daddy Seeking Revenge had ended.]

[Due to the player’s wonderful performance, reward the player with another title: Favored Baby Envoy’s Executor]

[Title: Death Envoy Favored Baby

-Special effects: Your rank on the Most Wanted List has gone up! Congratulations! You’ve entered their VIP list! The Death Envoy will give you special treatment upon every fateful encounter.]

[Not only that, your territory’s monster tide difficulty ratings will automatically increase by one grade, and there is a possibility that some death envoys will pay you a visit to commemorate your ’friendship’ during the monster’s tide.]

[The player is advised to light up one thousand incenses to pray for their ancestors’ protection.]

System, do you dare to stand in front of me while saying those things?

System: He he

Li Chunhua’s soul almost left her body when she saw the last prompt back then, and she decided to hide it from her best friend.

If only Siri knew of this, one could only guess what he’d do. Anyway, it’s so good to have a best friend around!

Since she can’t escape the fate of being a death envoy’s enemy anymore, she better get prepared. There were a few facilities associated with the light element.

[Gold-Grade Basic Light Magic Tower: 5300 EPS

-Releases 2 to 3 light arrows per second. Each arrow deals 20 points of damage to non-dark enemy units. Additional damage of 50% to dark-element enemy units.

-Necessary Materials: 20 units of stones, 1 luminescent crystal, 3 mana ores]

[Gold-Grade Intermediate Light Basic Tower: 7800 EPS

-Releases 4 to 5 arrows per second. Each arrow deals 50 points of damage to non-dark enemy units. Additional damage of 50% to dark-element enemy units

-Necessary Materials: 50 units of stones, 4 luminescent crystals, 8 mana ores]

If she remembered it right, there should be luminescent crystals on the death island and in the quarry. But the chance of obtaining them from the quarry was so low.

Light element defense facilities are particularly lethal to species dappling with dark elements like death envoys, ghost units, Lich, Grim Reapers, and so on. These guys will appear in the future.

[Bronze Grade: Mana Ore: 300 EPS

-Necessary building materials for magic-infused facilities]

The author had described mana ores as blue crystals filled with pure energy essence and exuding a faint glow.

Apart from these, there were also one-time-used items, like those in the category of [Other Items].

[Silver-grade Light Bombardment Scroll: 8,000 EPS]

[Gold-grade Light Purification Scroll: 22,000 EPS]

[Epic-grade Light Annihilation Scroll: 56,000 EPS]

Scrolls contained one magic skill, and once activated, the magic stored inside would be released. They are great for emergencies, but the downside is that they are expensive and can only be used once.

Li Chunhua continued scrolling until she noticed something.

The three foodies’ faces instantly pressed on the screen.

[Bronze-grade Great White Wine Sorbet: 3000 EPS]

[Silver-grade Void Egg and Bean Candy: 4800 EPS]

[Silver-grade Faceless Honey and Almond Crispies: 5200 EPS]

[Gold-grade Stuffed Shade Angelfish in Thermal Chilies: 6700 EPS]

[Gold-grade Dragonturtle Milk: 7100 EPS]

[Gold-grade Oven-Grilled Boulder Boa: 8500 EPS]

[Gold-Grade Silk Bittersweet Chocolate Truffle: 9000 EPS]

The three unconsciously gulped as their eyes digested the tempting images displayed on the screen.

The trio then looked at the Earth Points balance of the account.

[Earth Points: 43, 500]

Siri noticed the direction of their eyes, and he was alarmed.

His master’s eyes lit up, and he knew exactly why.

Sh*t!

"We can buy them!" Li Chunhua exclaimed with happiness and attempted to click on the first food item, but the tip of her finger only touched Siri’s cheeks.

The elf blocked her view of the screen and reminded her of the impending doom. "Master! Think about the death envoys after you! Are you going to risk your life for food?"

"You’re right! I forgot about them!" Li Chunhua recovered her senses and retrieved her hand. The two chibi foodies were disappointed.

Siri was glad that Master was able to resist the temptation of food and went back to his seat, however there was a pig-teammate in their group.

"Hey, what’s this?" Little Mantou on Li Chunhua’s shoulder tapped on the arrow beside the prices of the food, [Free Smell].

In an instant, a sweet, delicious, savory smell assaulted everyone’s nose.

Li Chunhua, and the two chibis: (ˉ﹃ˉ) (ˉ﹃ˉ) (ˉ﹃ˉ)

Siri: (￣_￣|||)

---

Five minutes have passed, Elga who was still digging trenches outside the territory sensed a presence behind her. She turned around and saw it was the fake old witch and her expression wasn’t right.

Half of the Old Witch’s face was hidden under the shadow.

"What do yo want?" Elga took a step back in fear.

Li Chunhua didn’t answer and just seized the shovel on the pixie’s hand and under Martial Aunt Elga’s gaze, a certain someone finished digging the trenches surrounding the territory in just under three minutes.

(＃°Д°)

Wait, if this old fake witch could do it in three minutes? Why bother giving her the job!

Elga could hear the Old Witch muttered under her breath in a crying tone.

"My food...my food...my food...the system is so good at setting traps!"

Elga was confused.

What traps?

(A/N: A long chappy! Thank you for the lovely gifts Shannin and Toonworm.
