Fey Evolution Merchant (Web Novel)

Chapter 282: A Freak, Long Tao

Lin Yuan now no longer needed to inject spiritual power into Red Thorn for it to release spores. It had taken an elite path this time and did not need to spit out too many spores from its spore cavity.

Red Thorn felt no pressure in spawning ramets with the dead demons’ flesh on the battlefield. This saved a great deal of spiritual power in Lin Yuan’s body.

Such a simple act of protection from the Source Sand on the large battlefield required Lin Yuan to use a lot of mental and spiritual power.

But after Lin Yuan opened this Spirit Qi Imprint that had accumulated a lot of spirit qi over the past month or so, coupled with the Source Sand’s Sand Control, the spiritual power required to maintain this simple protection of the low-ranking adventurers on the battlefield with the gravel was within his ability.

At the same time, he also summoned his Silver I/Fantasy I healing-type fey, the Jasmine Lily.

Almost every famous expert of the younger generation had their own signature fey, just like Long Tao’s, Shi Xu’s, and Zhao Xiaochun’s signature feys were the Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus, Silent Thunder Armored Crocodile, and Cold Needle Sea Urchin, respectively.

However, there had been a huge controversy over Black’s signature fey between the Jasmine Lily and Red Thorn.

Regardless of which fey he had summoned at that time, he had performed too well in the battle outside Millstone Town.

After Lin Yuan summoned the Silver/Fantasy Breed Jasmine Lily and injected spiritual power, an emerald mist immediately emerged on its emerald-green petals in spirals.

Each bit of light containing huge vitality flew out of the Jasmine Lily’s flower, just like a firefly, and would heal the injured spirit qi professionals.

Although some low-ranking spirit qi professionals had lost their arms in the battle against the demons, what Lin Yuan could do was just to preserve their lives. If he wanted to use Jasmine Lily’s Severed Limbs Growth to regenerate their broken arms, it would undoubtedly consume a lot of his spiritual power.

The consumption of the spiritual power in his body was akin to allowing him to save the lives of fewer adventurers.

This gathered sea of demons was ultimately like a river without a source. Despite the number, they could not be replenished after being killed.

After nearly four hours of slaughter, Long Tao’s Platinum X/Fantasy III Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus annihilated the last pinnacle Class 4 demon with its ability, Sea Emperor’s Dragon Breath.

As this demon turned into dust, this sea of demons was also considered completely defeated. All those low-ranking adventurers sat on the ground and took a deep breath of the air with a burning sulfur smell from the abyss dimensional rift. The air that normally felt disgusting now smelled exceptionally sweet.

Lin Yuan, Long Tao, Shi Xu, Zhao Xiaochun, and Fang Duoduo might not have the feeling of surviving this calamity at this moment because such a threat was not fatal to experts like them.

Even if Lin Yuan did not use the source-type Extreme Token filled with a one-time moonlight domain that his master, the Moon Empress, had given him, the red crystal spider the Mother of Bloodbath had given him alone was able to keep him safe.

However, this was only for experts like Lin Yuan and Long Tao. For those low-ranking adventurers, they were the lucky survivors in this war against the demons.

These five people were the five gods that had brought a new lease of life to them in the most desperate times of their lives while fearing death in the battle against the demons.

Not only were the five of them the hope for these adventurers, but also for the Radiance Federation and its younger generation.

Even though Long Tao’s, Zhao Xiaochun’s, and Fang Duoduo’s attacks had laid the victory of this battle against the demons, each wisp of yellow sand was the true salvation of life again and again for these low-ranking adventurers.

Many low-ranking adventurers had lost track of how many times the wisps of yellow sand had helped them muster the courage to live on and build the bridge toward life when they had been in despair and thought that life was about to wither against the demons.

There were even adventurers who had been saved no less than 100 times by the gravel while fighting against the demons for four hours.

Every time these hundreds of demon attacks hit them, it would signify death. However, thanks to the yellow sand’s protection, they had swept through the shadow of death toward the dawn of life.

These low-ranking adventurers looked at the silver-masked youth with a burning gaze. Someone shouted ‘Black’, and these low-ranking adventurers rushed toward the silver-masked youth.

Upon sensing many creatures running toward Lin Yuan, Red Thorn immediately adopted an attack stance. Lin Yuan quickly appeased Red Thorn, but these adventurers had approached him.

They lifted him and threw him high into the sky. They felt a lump in their throats and did not know what to say except to cheer.

“Long live! Black!”

The overwhelming cheers gathered into a sound louder than the demons’ roar in the controlled Class 3 abyss dimensional rift just now.

This was a blessing, gratitude, faith, and radiance.

Long Tao stood at Shi Xu’s side, looking at Black, who the adventurers were throwing up and down. He wore a cheerful smile on his face.

“Young people nowadays are really something. If old ones like us don’t work hard, we will soon be left behind by these young people.”

Shi Xu rolled his eyes at Long Tao and replied, “You’re an old man, but I’m still a young man. Just don’t leave me behind.”

Shi Xu then regretted his words. Long Tao looked at Shi Xu with a smile yet not a smile, giving Shi Xu the chills.

Shi Xu suddenly forgot that Long Tao was a ‘freak’ recognized by the Radiance Hundred members. The ‘freakish dialogue’ could transform into countless soft knives and poke into one’s heart.

Sure enough, Shi Xu heard Long Tao say, “I apologize on behalf of our Dragon Gate Guild Club member, Zhao Xiaochun. If it wasn’t for her, you wouldn’t have invested 80,000,000 Radiance dollars and ended up only earning 22 Radiance dollars. Although you’ve lost all the 80,000,000 Radiance dollars, this investment can also help you grow.”

Shi Xu took a deep breath, thinking that Long Tao was a freak. Thus, he kept telling himself not to be angry.
