Online Game: Super Beast Tamer

Chapter 111: Giant Grassland Insect "Ceci"

Mostiria invited Venus and Su Ming into the tent.

Su Ming looked curiously at the scene inside my tent. Various wooden boxes were piled up, revealing dried herbs, minerals of various colors, and some strange mechanical products.

There are many similar pieces of equipment hanging on the wall.

If there are other players here, they will recognize that these equipment are "blind box" equipment sold by mysterious merchants. They will display many identical pieces of equipment for players to buy. As for whether the equipment they buy is real or fake, it depends on luck.

Su Ming saw a drawing among a pile of dry herbs. It looked like a potion recipe, so he wanted to reach out and take it.

"Don't move..." Mostiria reacted quickly, slapped Su Ming's hand away and said, "These are all my products, sit down and listen to me."

"Hehe, sorry, I'm a pharmacist, so I'm interested in the potion formula." Su Ming retracted his hand embarrassedly, came to Venus and sat down obediently.

Mostiria poured a cup of boiling tea for Su Ming and Venus, and then began to talk:
"I wonder if you two have heard of the legend of the giant insect in the Qingfeng Plains?"

Su Ming shook his head, drank the tea, and discovered that the tea had properties.

Solom Tea: Increases quest experience by 10% within one hour of taking it. Cooldown: 24 hours.

It was good stuff, and it tasted good. It was slightly bitter, but it would soon turn sweet. Su Ming tried to put the tea into his backpack, but failed...

Venus has been dealing with various NPCs in Wendy City recently, and has some knowledge of the local situation. These experiences can help her open up topics and guess the other party's thoughts when communicating with NPCs.

Simply put, it helps with socializing.

After operating in Wendy City for more than two weeks, Venus has established connections between the NPC officials in Wendy City and obtained a certificate to build an alchemy workshop near Wendy City.

The one million gold coins were the funds she was going to use to buy land and build factories. Of course, she didn't actually need that much, she just got used to carrying that much money so that it would be convenient to buy things she liked.

"The giant insect 'Circe'..." Venus told the story she knew, "It is said that this ancient creature lived underground in the Qingfeng Plain before the birth of Wendy City. It is huge in size. Although it causes great damage every time it appears, it protected Wendy City when the Demon King descended. Therefore, the locals regard it as a patron saint, and toys and food imitating its shape have always been very popular."

"What kind of guardian angel is this? He's just a glutton and a coward. The precious goods I have treasured for many years were eaten by him, and now they are still in his stomach!"

"Roar~" The roar of a big turtle was heard outside the tent.

"Yes, yes, and your son was also eaten. Isn't it the same? My precious commodity is tied to your son." Mostiria talked to the giant turtle.

"Hooho~"

"Okay, okay, I get it. Your son is much more valuable than my merchandise." Mostiria said to Venus, "I won't say any more nonsense. I need you two to cooperate and get into Circe's belly to help me save my precious merchandise... and Totes' son.

In return, I will sell you the Mirror of the Law."

If it had been Su Ming, he would have agreed to it. However, Venus's thinking was different from that of most combat players. A large part of the rewards for combat players came from rewards generated by the system, and most of the rewards Venus had received came from promises from NPCs, so she was more perceptive.

Venus took a sip of tea and said after a while:
"That's all? Mr. Mysterious Merchant, we'll help you recover your precious merchandise, plus rescue this Mr. Turtle... or is it Ms.?"

"Hooho~"

"Ma'am..." Mostiria helped Totes translate unhappily.

"I helped you rescue the son of this turtle lady, and all you had to do was sell me the goods that were supposed to be sold to me. You are indeed a businessman and you really know how to do business."

Mostiria rubbed his temples in worry. He looked at the calm Venus, and then at Su Ming who was feeding the slime and wild boar tea. He felt that he should have left Venus outside the tent and talked to the trainer alone.

There was a moment of silence between the two sides. Seeing that Venus had no intention of speaking, Mostiria gave up and said:
"Well, if you can help me recover my precious merchandise, I'll let you take one of them away. For a price, of course."

"Roar~" The big turtle once again reminded Mostiria that he still had his son.

Mostiria said helplessly:

"I know! Totes, they will not forget your son."

"Are those products on the same level as the 'Mirror of the Law'?" Venus asked.

"Yes, they are all magical equipment with magical powers." Mostiria replied.

"Well, we'll help you with this. How can Spore and I get into the stomach of the giant worm Ceci? Isn't the giant worm Ceci a legend?"

"Of course not. It just became a legend because it gradually declined and didn't like to move around on the ground anymore."

Mostiria pulled out a wooden box, dug out two stones and a brand new horn, gave them to Venus, and said:

"This is my 'location stone' and 'friendship horn'."

Mostiria's Location Stone: After use, you can be teleported to the pet of the mysterious merchant Mostiria.

Friendship Horn (Special Item): After blowing, a teammate can be teleported to your side. Use times (3/3). Cooldown: 2 hours.

After looking at the two items, Venus said:

"So your name is Mostiria."

Mostiria slapped his forehead. He had actually exposed the name of the mysterious merchant. He was so unqualified...

"Don't tell anyone my name, or you'll be in trouble." Mostiria issued a threat that was not at all intimidating and continued to rummage through things.

As he searched, he said:
“Cessi is a coward and generally won’t easily come into contact with humans who have mastered combat skills, but she is also a glutton, so as long as you bring her something she likes to eat, you can lure her out, then you can get into her stomach and use the Horn of Friendship to teleport the trainer in.

With the strength of this tamer, he should be able to deal with the monster in Ceci's stomach and help me retrieve the precious goods and Totes' son.

Once you have collected all the items, use the location stone to teleport back."

As she spoke, Mostiria took out a bunch of golden leaves from the box and handed them to Venus with some heartache.

Life Leaf (Special Item): After taking it, it increases the upper limit of health by 50% for 1 minute, and restores 10% of health within 100 seconds. Cooldown: 5 minutes.

"This is what Ceci likes to eat. She won't come out without it... Remember, you have to take this box of life leaves to a place where there are no humans within a kilometer. Wait for about 10 minutes, and Ceci will probably eat you.

In fact, it is not eating you, but eating the leaves and swallowing you in the stomach. This is how Dotes' son was eaten.

And this is the map I drew of Ceci's belly, you can refer to it."

Su Ming looked at the map and found that it was exactly the same as the treasure map that Mostiria had just sold to the player...

It is indeed a treasure map, but no one should be able to find it...

Venus put away the map and said with a smile:

"Wait for our good news, Mr. Mostiria."

System: You have accepted the random team mission "Cesi's Belly".
