Chapter 88 The Little Girl Picking Mushrooms

Zhou Nan had never thought there was anything wrong with this "little girl picking mushrooms" before, but now, looking at the red cloak she was wearing, he suddenly wondered if it was a transformation prop.

Furthermore, it's strange that this little girl was all alone in the woods outside the city, and she wasn't seen picking any mushrooms, so her task must have been more than just hunting monsters.

"What if I transformed into a gray jackal and devoured this little girl? Would there be any unexpected benefits...? That's a bit wicked. This little sister is so cute, I think I'd better not eat her."

Zhou Nan didn't think too much about it and quickly followed the messenger butterfly eastward into the woods.

During the journey, Zhou Nan suddenly had a brilliant idea.

The skill 【Override】 cannot override multiple units at the same time. Since Xin Die is small and cannot step on two units at once, she can step on one unit at a time, using the Void Walk skill to let Xin Die, A Zhen, and A Qiang act as her "stepping stones".

However, to complete such a void walk, one must test their ability to control summoned cards. Zhou Nan was trying for the first time and dared not be distracted, walking steadily in the air step by step.

Of course, this kind of "empty walk" is not very useful except for showing off. If you want to travel faster, it is not as fast as simply stepping on a butterfly with one foot.

A moment later, Zhou Nan arrived at the east side of the woods, where there were indeed many large gray wolves.

These gray wolves are generally weak, with around 3,000 health points. Most players who come to Silver City don't care about these small monsters, so there are very few players here.

In addition, unlike the monsters in dungeons, the large gray wolves on this large map respawn very quickly and are specifically for players to farm materials.

Zhou Nan released his Sword Butterfly to kill at will. Just five minutes later, after Sword Butterfly Qiang Fen had only killed twelve Big Bad Wolves, Zhou Nan received a system notification: "Ding, the [Conquest] effect has been triggered. Congratulations on obtaining a one-star white card [Big Bad Wolf - Dou Ni Wan'er]."

Less than five minutes later, Zhou Nan received another system notification, again triggered by the [Conquest] effect, this time obtaining a one-star white card [Big Bad Wolf - Throw Eve].

About an hour later, Zhou Nan killed over a hundred gray wolves, exceeding the target set by "The Little Girl Picking Mushrooms." Thanks to the [Conquer] skill, he accumulated ten gray wolf cards, and of course, all the cards obtained through [Conquer] were bound!

"The Conquest skill is really powerful! Is card-collecting this efficient?"

Zhou Nan only regretted that he didn't have enough storage space. If he kept refreshing like this, his storage backpack would probably be full very soon.

It's important to know that wolves also drop materials, such as wolf pelts and wolf teeth. Although these low-level materials aren't very valuable, it would be a waste not to pick them up after they're dropped, so Zhou Nan collected them all.

On his way back to turn in the quest, Zhou Nan tried using the Big Bad Wolf card to synthesize a Gray Wolf card. He found that two Big Bad Wolf cards could be combined to create a Gray Wolf card, but the Gray Wolf was not as powerful as the Big Bad Wolf.

The three Big Bad Wolf cards can be combined to strengthen the Big Bad Wolf card, but the improvement in attribute data is very limited, so Zhou Nan felt it was not very meaningful.

After finding the little girl picking mushrooms and completing the quest, Zhou Nan was able to buy amber potions from her at a very low price. He immediately bought 990 bottles, which was ten sets and would take up ten storage slots.

Zhou Nan vaguely remembered that at the beginning, some players liked to speculate and buy amber potions here for five gold coins a bottle, and then resell them to other unsuspecting players for ten gold coins or more, making a fortune. Unfortunately, at that time, he did not know the secret of this place, but focused on reselling Night Owl Cards. He found that the more he resold, the more ridiculously the price of Night Owl Cards rose. It was like selling a house, buying a house, and then selling a house again. He made a little money each time, and after selling and reselling, he eventually found that the gold coins he earned could not buy back his original house.

In addition, "The Little Girl Picking Mushrooms" also rewarded Zhou Nan with a storybook titled "The Legend of the Wolf".

[Legend of the Wolf: Special Item, Quest Item. Long, long ago, a wolf suddenly appeared, bringing disaster, stealing mushrooms, and then disappearing. The forest was full of danger, and the apothecary was very lonely. Without mushrooms to make medicine, what could she do? The apothecary bravely picked up her longsword, ventured into the forest, sought out the wolf, fought it, and brought the mushrooms back outside. She is the apothecary, Redred Redding Howdard's Wristband!]

Zhou Nan frowned slightly.

It vaguely remembered this book, "The Legend of the Wolf," and it seemed that no matter what task the "little girl picking mushrooms" gave out, once the player completed it, they would eventually receive a copy of "The Legend of the Wolf."

However, this storybook cannot be opened. Countless players know that this fairy tale book is related to a quest, but it seems that no player has unlocked its secrets.

After a moment's thought, Zhou Nan sent a message to [Valkyrie Lin Yun]: "Do you still remember the little girl, Reid, Redding, and Haud, who was picking mushrooms in the woods outside Silver City?"

[Valkyrie Lin Yun] It's unclear why he was able to start playing his alt account again; he must be a veteran player, as he quickly replied, "Is it the one who sells amber potions?"

"Yes! Completing her task will reward you with a copy of 'The Legend of the Wolf.' Do you know what's hidden in it?"

"You've come to the right person. Now listen carefully, every word I say is crucial. Everything is in the details. The legend of the wolf has four characters, while the little girl's name has nine. Nine reversed is six, and four plus six equals ten. East of Silver City is the East Coast, where players often hold parties. Right next to Silver City is a forest, and in the forest live a big gray wolf. The little girl selling amber potions happens to be in the forest. Coincidentally, the name of the amber potion also has four characters! With so many clues connected, the truth is quite obvious: I know nothing!"

"Damn, I thought you had some earth-shattering deduction, but it's just a bunch of nonsense..."

Zhou Nan abruptly ended his conversation with [Valkyrie Lin Yun]. He looked at the "little girl picking mushrooms" and said, "Anyway, you definitely have an extraordinary mission that requires collecting certain clues to unlock. How about I devour you and see if I can forcefully obtain the clues? Do you agree?"

The little girl picking mushrooms blinked her big eyes, of course she didn't know how to answer Zhou Nan.

Zhou Nan continued, "If you don't say anything, I'll take that as a yes. I've turned into the Big Bad Wolf, and I'm going to eat you..."

After saying that, Zhou Nan lay down on the spot and immediately transformed into a gray-furred jackal.

He actually just wanted to scare the little girl picking mushrooms. If he really swallowed her whole, who would he be able to buy amber potions at a low price later?

To Zhou Nan's surprise, when the little girl saw Zhou Nan suddenly transform, she also ripped off her red cloak. With a bang, she transformed into a gray werewolf with bright red words on her head: "Legendary Wolf Wolfman".

With a "whoosh," the creature was about to attack Zhou Nan.

"NPCs can transform too? Is this a werewolf disguised as a little girl?"

Zhou Nan knew that this must be due to the properties of the wolfskin coat. The coat's property information stated that after transforming into a werewolf, one would gain the hatred of certain NPCs.

At this moment, Zhou Nan didn't dare to hesitate any longer. He quickly opened his mouth and swallowed the werewolf in front of him. Only then did he realize that the werewolf actually had 50,000 health points, but it had already begun to be digested by him at a rate of 300 points per second.

Since digestion wasn't complete, the transformation couldn't be reversed. Without hesitation, Zhou Nan grabbed the red cloak that the little girl had torn off and quickly used the [Return to Town] skill.

He was afraid that other players would mistake him for a monster and attack him, which would be really frustrating.
