Chapter 192: Chapter 164 Elf Training Hall_3

Mu You cooperated with his Battle Eagle, and it was a bit difficult, but they managed to defeat the opponent smoothly in the end.

[You have killed the Forest Troll Assassin, Lifespan +1, Experience +11, you get one Troll Horn.]

[The Trolls inhabit the areas west to Elf Forest, they are mortal enemies of the Forest Elves. The two sides have been at loggerheads for many years, and neither side has been able to get rid of the other. The Elf Forest is protected by the World Tree. There is an invisible natural barrier around the edge of the forest. If hostile creatures like Trolls infiltrate, they will certainly be detected by the Elves.]

[However, no one has discovered the intrusion of the Trolls this time, which you find strange. Perhaps you should take this Troll Horn to the Wanderer Ranger Troops, who are the main force against the Trolls.]

"Oh?"

Elves and Trolls are enemies. Now that the Trolls have infiltrated the Elves’ domain without being detected...

Looking at these lines of texts, Mu You always felt that he seemed to have grabbed a corner of a task chain.

[You stop a passing Forest Elf on the road, hoping that he will bring you to the Ranger Troops.]

[The Elf suspiciously asks what you want to do, you inform him of what has happened and show him the Troll Horn as proof.]

[Knowing how serious the matter is, the Elf didn’t dare to delay and quickly helped you to fire a signal.]

[In a moment, a troop of high-ranking Rangers riding Gryphons descended from the sky, landing in front of you.]

[Wanderer Ranger Troops: a team composed of the most elite rangers from the Forest Elves. They have been responsible for defending the border of the Elf Forest for a thousand years. For a long time, joining the Ranger Troops has been seen as a sign of bravery and honor among the Elves.]

[You have handed the Troll Horn to the Captain of the Ranger Troops.]

[Having heard about your recent battle, the Captain of the Rangers acknowledges your contributions and thanks you.]

[You have gained 100 Elf Clan Reputation points. You have now unlocked Elf Clan Reputation, current reputation level: Friendly.]

"That’s it?"

Mu You was dumbfounded. He was expecting to trigger some follow-up tasks, but he was dismissed with some reputation after handing over the items...

Mu You clicked on the ’Elf Reputation’ text for a look.

[Elf Clan Reputation: the elf clan’s assessment of the friendliness of foreigners. If you reach ’Friendly,’ you can move freely in the area of the Elf Forest except for Emerald City, you will not be expelled. If you reach ’Respected,’ you can gain the right to enter the Elf training hall.]

Mu You took a closer look at the entry for ’Training Hall’, and the further he looked, the more excited he became.

The so-called Training Hall, is where the Elf Clan trains and cultivates special abilities. There are hundreds of the Elf Clan’s talents and exclusive magic, all of which can be learned and mastered through training there.

Of course, it is fully open only to people inside the Elf Clan like Little Ya.

For foreigners, even with access to the training hall, they could only learn a few fixed abilities, and they required high Elf Reputation to exchange.

But even so, these substitute abilities were quite useful. For example, ’Night Vision’ and ’Shooting Technique’, which makes Mu You quite envious.

The ’Night Vision’ ability allows you to see clearly in the dark, just like the daytime. The Shooting Technique allows you to double your range when using a bow and arrow.

Both of these abilities are passive talents that do not consume magic, once learned it can permanently enhance his combat power. Especially Night Vision, which is really useful for him who often needs to move in the night!

In addition to that, there are some Elf Combat Arts, Jungle Climbing, Carving Skills and so on, all of which are good abilities.

However, as the cost of these strong abilities, the price is naturally high, none of the learnable abilities cost fewer than 1000 reputations, the Night Vision and Shooting Technique require 1500 reputations to learn. Not to mention, to unlock the ’Respected’ impression level, you need to reach 3000 reputation!

Mu You currently has no idea how hard it is to gain reputation, but he can easily guess that the Elf Clan would certainly not easily spread their clan’s skills to outsiders. Therefore, to achieve these reputations, the required time and energy would definitely not be less.

[After saying goodbye to you, the Ranger Troops mount their Gryphons, preparing to leave and investigate the traces of the Troll.]

Watching the Ranger Troop depart, Mu You quickly guided his avatar to follow and interact with the Ranger Captain.

[You step before the gryphon, expressing your willingness to assist the Ranger Captain.]

[After considering, the Ranger Captain accepts your offer.]

[Congratulations, you have triggered a hidden task ’Investigating Troll Origins’.]

[Task details: Find the method and location through which the trolls infiltrate the Elf Forest, and capture a living troll as evidence.]

Task reward: 1000 Elf Prestige points.

Task deadline: Before the Ranger Troop discovers the troll’s origin.]

[Will you accept?]

Indeed, a follow-up task triggered!

Amused, Mu You noticed that the task was to discover the troll’s origin. The reward was enticing, directly giving him one thousand prestige points.

However, the difficulty of the task was in capturing a live troll, and he also needed to complete this before the Ranger Troop did...

Mu You was not overly worried, as only he knew the actual location where the trolls appeared. Moreover, he had a Pumpkin Lantern. He could go to the lakeside at night. Maybe, he could find something like footprints.

But this task was not urgent. It could only be tackled at night. First, Mu You rode his donkey back to Little Ya’s place, then used the Teleportation Array to go outside Sunset City and retrieve his fishing net.

With the mermaids out of the way, the fishing net finally had a catch today!

[You pull at the fishing net, grasping a hefty weight, making you expect a fruitful harvest. As you bring in the net, you see it capturing a large fish half a meter long.]

[Large Whisker Fish: Greatly enhances pet’s experience when fed, considerably advances pets’ growth, and lets pets acquire the ability to breathe under water.]

Only one fish was caught but it was a big half-meter long one, with incredibly strong effects. Apart from accelerating pet growth, it could additionally give pets an ’aquatic respiration’ talent, allowing the pet to fight and move in water. That was a really practical ability!

Mu You immediately killed the whisker fish and retrieved it.

A hefty fish with several slimy whiskers on a fat body appeared in Mu You’s hands, weighing at least forty or fifty kilograms.

"Squeak!"

As soon as the Magic Fish appeared, the Little Spider on the roof immediately approached him, drooling at the sight of it.

Unfortunately, Mu You did not intend to feed the fish to it.

"Good boy, I need this fish. Wait until I catch a new fish, then I’ll feed you."

Mu You consoled the Little Spider. The game’s riding animal was a drag. He planned to feed the fish to a Chocobo, so he had to first raise a qualified Chocobo to bring over the next time he entered the game.

Little Spider left rather disappointed and returned to its den to continue napping.

Mu You then went to the kitchen to cut up the fish.

The fish was too large, so it would definitely not be eaten all at once. Mu You cut up two kilograms of fish meat, freezing the rest in the refrigerator, then placed the cut fish meat into his backpack. Among the ten Chocobo chicks, he chose the best-looking one to feed the fish meat.

By now, these Chocobos had all grown to the size of a hen, their bodies entirely covered in golden feathers. They romped around in the pasture each day, now somewhat resembling young adult chocobos, although they were still far from suitable as riding animals.

The Chocobo that was specially cared for by Mu You rushed over as soon as it saw the fish meat. After chewing for quite some time, it finally swallowed the fish meat. After eating, its size visibly increased. Comparatively, it was about five centimeters taller than the other Chocobos.

Mu You was satisfied. If he continued feeding the fish at this rate, when the fish was all eaten, the chick should be around the size of an adult Chocobo.
