Chapter 13 Cat-Ear Maid Cafe
"By the way, which one is more valuable, the grass fruit or the wind fruit?"
After confirming Mr. Ha's attributes, Lu Ran asked again.
"Hmm?"
Little White Dragon didn't expect Lu Ran to ask this question suddenly.
He said: "Although the wind type is also good, the grass type has more functions. In addition to combat, there are many auxiliary effects. Moreover, most birds are wind type, but there are fewer grass type pets, so the price of grass type fruits on the market is more expensive."
"Why are you asking this?"
Lu Ran said: "My novice reward has a grass type fruit. Although attribute fruits are scarce now, I should be able to exchange it for a wind type fruit with this, right? May I ask where is the best place to exchange it?"
"I shouldn't ask..." Little White Dragon nodded, but the next moment, his eyes shrank.
Like him, Sister Hua next to him also shrank. They all looked at Lu Ran in surprise.
"What? What did you say? Your novice secret realm clearance reward has a grass type fruit?" Little White Dragon said in surprise.
"Yes." Lu Ran chatted with Xiao Bailong on the way and learned that high-level resources are actually only rare for low-level newbies, but they are not rare in Infinite City. He took it out and asked without any pressure.
Among his three clearance rewards, the beast control skill should be the most valuable.
"Your score has reached D?" Xiao Bailong continued to ask.
After he finished speaking, the wild boar youth and others all looked at Lu Ran.
It was a bit surprising that he got a D score with a husky.
"E and F scores do not have resource rewards, only basic crystal coins. Only when you reach D score will you get high-level resource rewards." He wrote eloquently.
"You actually reached D score... and you are so lucky that you got the grass fruit." Xiao Bailong didn't expect that he had made a mistake.
Soon, he smiled and didn't want to eat anymore. He pulled Lu Ran and said, "Follow me."
"I know a place where you can definitely find the wind fruit."
"Uh." Seeing Xiao Bailong, who was obviously twice as enthusiastic, Lu Ran could only be forced to be pulled away by the other party.
Before leaving, he moved his mind, and Mr. Ha, who was covering his head, turned into a white light and was recalled to the contract card.
"Sister Hua, I have something to do, so I'm leaving first."
The little white dragon was in high spirits and did not forget to say goodbye to his colleagues.
Seeing this, Bixia Shenghua adjusted his glasses, looked at Lu Ran and the others who were leaving, and curled his lips and said, "Look how happy the child is."
"Sister Hua, is the grass fruit very rare?" The wild boar youth asked.
"It is considered to be relatively rare among high-level resources. The probability of getting a grass fruit with a D-level score is not high. His score may have reached C-level."
"C-level? That's the same as me." The wild boar youth was surprised.
He himself is C-level, and he knows how difficult it is to get a C-level score in the novice secret realm. Even they have been in danger several times.
You know, his pet is a pig, and after the contract, it has reverted to its ancestral mutation and become an extraordinary wild boar!
Wild boars, looking at the natural world, are also extremely difficult to mess with, and are definitely not comparable to huskies.
"I'm also very curious, how did he get a D-level score with a husky..." Sister Hua fell into deep thought, and said: "Maybe they are very talented. I forgot to tell you that some animals that look weak, such as chickens, ducks and insects, have a chance to awaken to a high-level extraordinary race, comparable to lions and tigers, if they are very compatible with the beastmaster. This kind of situation is hard to come by. Maybe it's just like that..."
"Some people are born beastmasters."
"Anyway, that 'passerby' is amazing. If you meet him again in the future, you can have a deep exchange and make friends. After all, there are many secret realms that cannot be conquered by one person. It will be much more comfortable to have a powerful partner."
"Hahaha, that's really amazing..." The pig farmer scratched his head and took note of Lu Ran and Mr. Ha. He was a little envious. He could ask for advice and get to know them in the future.
...
Little White Dragon pulled Lu Ran all the way.
During this period, Little White Dragon also swiped a card to rent a shared motorcycle on the side of the road and took Lu Ran towards the central area.
"Where are you taking me?" Lu Ran couldn't help asking under the helmet.
"You can't find the wind fruit if you go directly to various stores now, but the place I take you to next will definitely be fine."
Dudududu——————
As the motorcycle rushed, Lu Ran saw many people along the way, but they didn't communicate with each other.
Until, Xiaobailong took Lu Ran and stopped in front of a store decorated in a very "two-dimensional" style.
The car stopped, and Lu Ran turned his head to look at the name on the pink store, fell into deep thought, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
It was written on it: Cat Ear Maid Cafe!
"Is this where you want to take me?"
Lu Ran asked, he glanced at the little white dragon in the waves who licked his lips, expressing doubt.
"Yes, the Cat Ear Maid Cafe is a chain of intelligence agencies established by a very powerful information dealer among the second generation of beast masters. It has many branches in various infinite cities. It looks like a coffee shop on the surface, but it is actually an intelligence center. If you want to know any information in the future, you can't go wrong by spending money here."
"Compared to aimlessly going to various stores to look for wind-type fruits, it is more efficient to entrust it here directly."
"Welcome!" During the exchange between Xiao Bailong and Lu Ran, the door of the coffee shop was opened, and a woman wearing a black and white maid uniform and a cat ear and tail pendant walked out. At her feet, there was also a dressed up dog. A very cute ragdoll-like pet animal wearing a bow.
"Ah, it's Mr. Little White Dragon." The cat-eared maid immediately smiled when she saw Little White Dragon in the waves.
"Hehe, Xiao Ling." Xiao Bailong chuckled. Wearing a suit, he looked like a gentle animal at this moment: "Bring a new guy here to see you."
At this time, Lu Ran was completely speechless. Seeing Xiao Bailong's smile that he couldn't hide, he complained.
At first, he only thought that Xiao Bailong was a serious social worker, but unexpectedly, he was also a hidden old pervert.
That’s right, no serious person would change his name to Langli Xiaobailong.
Ha, man.
Judging from his familiarity, he must have been to places like this often.
Lu Ran questioned whether this place was an intelligence agency and was skeptical.
"Are you new? Welcome." The cat-eared maid smiled at Lu Ran.
"Hello." Lu Ran took off his helmet and said.
"Let me introduce to you, Feng Yupianling, who also became a beast master about a month ago. Generally speaking, we can be regarded as the fourth generation of beast masters, but the two of us are nearly a month earlier than you. She You are currently working here. If you want to obtain special information in the future, you can come here to buy it. Don’t underestimate this coffee shop. This is currently the second largest intelligence agency in Xia State, second only to the official.”
"Xiao Ling, this is the newbie who passed the trial today. He got a grass-type fruit as a novice reward, but his pet beast is wind-type. I want to exchange it for a wind-type fruit. Is there any way?"
When the cat-eared maid named Xiao Ling heard this, her eyes lit up, she looked at Lu Ran and said, "It's not easy to find a wind fruit elsewhere now, but you've come to the right place."
"Please come in first."
The interior decoration of the maid shop uses a more classical style, with a room full of bookshelves stacked around it.
Compared to a coffee shop, this place is more like a cattery. In addition to the pet cats following Xiaoling, there are also several pet cats of different races lying in various places inside.
The most eye-catching thing is that there seems to be a statue enshrined in the center of the store.
The statue was also a cat, but it looked more noble than those pet cats. It was always looking at the surroundings with gem-like eyes.
"It's very late. There's no one in the store right now. You can just sit down wherever you want." After bringing Lu Ran and the others in, Xiao Ling took out a menu, handed it to Lu Ran and said with a smile, "Would you like something to drink."
Lu Ran thanked him again and looked at the menu.
When he saw the coffee that cost more than entering the secret realm once, his fingers twitched and he was not willing to waste money now. He raised his head and said: "No need."
"Despite the high cost, the raw materials for the drinks here come from the secret realm, and they have bonus effects after drinking. The price is reasonable." Next to him, Xiao Bailong smiled as if he saw Lu Ran's concern.
"Let's talk about business first." Lu Ran didn't understand prices and didn't really want to drink at the moment.
At this time, Feng Yupianling had taken out a tablet-like prop and stood next to Lu Ran.
"Wind fruit, right, and it's best to exchange it by barter." At this moment, she was using this tablet to investigate the information Lu Ran needed.
"Yes."
"Currently we have information on three wind fruits."
"The cheapest and most suitable information for you, 50 crystal coins."
"So cheap?" Lu Ran was surprised.
You know, his novice pass reward was 10,000 crystal coins.
And 50 crystal coins are not as expensive as coffee and milk tea.
"Generally speaking, the relatively cheap information means that it is not difficult to obtain this information. There is a high probability of obtaining it through other places. Should we consider it?" Feng Yupianling asked.
"Yes." Lu Ran said, it's only 50 crystal coins, just for convenience.
Feng Yupianling smiled slightly and said: "There is a place for swiping cards on the table, just put your hand on it."
Lu Ran looked at a sensor screen on the table.
He stretched out his hand and placed his palm on it.
The next moment, a voice popped up in his mind, and a string of words appeared in front of his eyes.
[The Mao Er Maid Cafe requests to deduct 50 crystal coins. Do you agree? 】
"Agree." Lu Ran said.
The next moment, the cat-eared maid Xiao Ling poked the tablet and said: "Okay, the information has been unlocked and has been sent to your communication mailbox by email."
The communication function of the ID card can be email, phone call, or video.
Lu Ran checked his mailbox and immediately saw the system email from the Mao Er Maid Cafe.
[The Beast Taming Guild "Medicine Pavilion" stationed in No. 6 Infinite City collects grass-type fruits unlimitedly and supports crystal coin trading and barter. Currently, the medicine pavilion guild's public resource exchange list includes wind-type fruits. 】
"Infinite City No. 6? Medicine Pavilion Guild?" After getting the information, Lu Ran didn't hide it and said it directly.
Obviously, he still needs to explain this information.
"Hmm..." The cat-eared maid pondered for a while and said: "We are the No. 3 Infinite City. The No. 6 Infinite City is in the southwest region. You have to pass through the teleportation array or reach the corresponding area in reality to enter. As for the Medicine Pavilion, It’s a beast mastering guild.”
"The Beast Tamer Guild is a group of beast tamers. It was originally established to conquer the secret realm of the Abyss together. Most of them are formed by unofficial beast tamers. I have heard of the Medicine Pavilion. This is a guild established by a second-generation beast tamer. There are many auxiliary and healing beast tamers inside. There are many life-type beast tamers who are good at making medicines. It is a pharmaceutical company that is more of a commercial guild. So the information you got is that they have wind-type fruits and need grass-type fruits, right?"
"Yes." Lu Ran nodded and said, "In this case, I still have to go to the No. 6 Infinite City to exchange?"
"No, your grass-type fruit is actually more valuable than the wind-type fruit. You are a new customer of the Cat Ear Maid Shop. In this case, I will give you a little benefit. I will help you contact the staff of the Medicine Pavilion. At that time, they will bring the wind-type fruit to exchange with you. The grass-type fruit is more valuable, and I will try my best to get more extra resources for you." Feng Yu Piao Ling said, "Remember to give me a five-star praise at that time~"
