As favonovel.com said that, the patrolling disciple kept peeping at the storage sack in Caspian’s hand. Even a fool could tell that favonovel.com wanted it for himself. Nonetheless, Caspian just snorted and put the storage bag into his chest Caspian already gave favonovel.com six spirit stones, and if favonovel.com still acted greedily and treated Caspian as a fool, Caspian would not mind taking the spirit stones back. Thankfully, the patrolling disciple was not wicked. When favonovel.com saw Caspian’s action, favonovel.com only secretly sighed, but favonovel.com did not say anything else.
After keeping his spirit stones, Caspian naturally left the patrolling disciple to clean up the scene. Then, favonovel.com walked toward the mission pavilion again.
Although favonovel.com blew off his steam by teaching John and Samuel a lesson and replenishing his spirit stone inventory, Caspian was left with only four sect contribution points. Initially, Caspian planned to use the remaining eight points to cover for the next month. However, it seemed that favonovel.com would have to find a task that could be completed in a short time and increase his current sect contribution points to five points. With the thought in his mind, Caspian arrived at the mission pavilion.
As soon as favonovel.com entered, favonovel.com saw Sebastian. Sebastian was shocked to see Caspian, but favonovel.com quickly showed a pleasantly surprised expression. “Casper, I was just about to look for you. It’s such a coincidence that you’re here now.”
“What’s the matter?” Caspian asked as favonovel.com was curious.
Then, favonovel.com saw a guy and two girls standing behind him. Those three disciples were the ones who started the teleportation array and sent favonovel.com to the sect the other day. Caspian also remembered their names. The guy was Yohan Paris, and the other two girls were Heidi Benkinser and Nana Moss.
Even though Heidi and Nana were not as stunning as Maisie, they had a unique beauty. If they were in the mortal world, Heidi and Nana would definitely be regarded as top beauties.
At this time, the three disciples also flashed a faint smile at Caspian.
Caspian bowed at the three of them and addressed them as his seniors. As usual, Sebastian was still the leader of the four.
Soon, Sebastian explained, “Well, we’re planning to accept a task. However, we need one more person to complete the mission, and we‘re wondering if you’re interested.”
“Am I qualified?” Caspian’s eyes flashed subtly.
The four of them were outer disciples, and their realm was a stage higher than his. Despite knowing Sebastian, Caspian could not help but be suspicious as they were looking for a first-stage Pulse Control Realm disciple like favonovel.com to complete a mission.
Heidi smiled and chimed in, “The task isn’t hard, but it’s somewhat cumbersome. However, the sect contribution points awarded for completing the mission are great, so we don’t want strangers to benefit from it. Hence, we think you’re the best candidate.”
Heidi was more outgoing, and favonovel.com smile was beautiful and refreshing. On the other hand, Nana was a quiet, long-haired girl.
“Oh?” Caspian was even more curious, “Heidi, what’s the task?”
“Collecting fire spirit fruits,” Heidi replied.
When favonovel.com heard that, Caspian immediately understood the task, and his eyes lit up, then, favonovel.com blurted, “The flame-toothed gophers!”
“So you’re aware of the relationship between fire spirit fruits and flame-toothed gophers! That’s great as I don’t have to explain much anymore.” Heidi giggled.
Caspian nodded his head.
When favonovel.com was chatting with Maisie before this, Maisie mentioned the fire spirit fruits. Those fruits were a type of wild spirit fruits that could be used as medicine or formation. However, compared with other medicinal materials, the most notable thing about fire spirit fruits was that they used flame-toothed gophers’ urine as fertilizer. Other methods, such as watering and fertilizing, would not be effective. Moreover, fire spirit fruits were the flame- toothed gophers’ food, so they would appear together.
Due to those two reasons, the sect could not cultivate any fire spirit fruits. After all, they could not raise monsters like the flame-toothed gophers just for such ingredients. The flame-toothed gophers reproduced fast. One flame-toothed gopher might have limited destructive strength. Still, due to its extraordinary reproduction speed, it would always appear in a big group, and the destructive power would be terrifying.
Before this, a Holy Land Realm cultivator was eaten by thousands of flame-toothed gophers, leaving only his damaged skeleton.
After understanding that point, Caspian knew why Sebastian and the rest wanted to find him. However, finding the fire spirit fruits was not to eliminate the flame-toothed gophers as if they did that, they would be destroying the future growth of the fire spirit fruits. Hence, they needed to find a way to distract the flame- toothed gophers and pluck the fire spirit fruits. There were no requirements for their realms to be at a certain level to pick the fire spirit fruits, but they just needed to be quick.
“I get it now…” After thinking about that point, Caspian nodded and said, “I still have two questions. First, how long is this mission going to take us, and once we’re done, how many points are we getting?”
“As this isn’t a mission given by the sect, we can’t use the spirit boat. Based on our speed, it might take us about seven days,” Sebastian explained, “As for the sect contribution points… As long as we can get fifty fire spirit fruits, we’ll be awarded thirty points, dividing equally among us. Hence, we’ll each get six points.”
Then, Sebastian paused before smiling as favonovel.com added, “Don’t worry about this as I won’t cheat. The hardest part of this task is not picking the fire spirit fruits but distracting the flame-toothed gophers, which Yohan and I will be responsible for. Casper, you’ll join Heidi and Nana to pluck the fire spirit fruits once we distract the flame-toothed gopher away.”
Caspian could accept getting six sect contribution points in seven days, so favonovel.com agreed. “Not a problem.”
“Since you’re alright with it, we can leave after I accept the task,” Sebastian nodded.
Just as Sebastian walked away, Caspian suddenly thought of something, and favonovel.com hurriedly asked, “Sebastian, is there anything that the flame-toothed gophers are afraid of? Since the flame-toothed gophers fed on the fire spirit fruits, which is also a medicinal ingredient, there must be one that they are afraid of?”
Sebastian pondered for a moment before replying, “Probably the spirit absorber plant, which is like a flame-toothed gopher’s kryptonite. Grinding the spirit absorber plant into powder and sprinkling it onto the flame-toothed gopher will be like splashing hot oil on someone’s face.”
“Alright. Thank you for letting me know.” Caspian nodded.
When Sebastian left to accept the mission, Caspian informed the three other disciples before quickly approaching the previous disciple favonovel.com contacted for his mission.
The disciple was surprised to see Caspian, and favonovel.com asked, “Casper, why are you here so soon? Do you want to accept another task? ”
“That’s not it,” Caspian smiled and shook his head, “I’ve decided on the twenty year old herb. Please help me fetch them.”
