Me? A slime? A villain who destroys a nation? Fine!

"Hey, you guys, come here."

Lin Ming waved his little hand to the villagers, and Millie was the first to react, running over.

Seeing that Millie was always running ahead, Lin Ming could only continue as before, choosing her as the messenger first. He tossed a small piece of slime onto her body and relayed the message:

"Have everyone trim the thorns on the vines in the field and remove the dangerous thorns."

"Mmm!" Millie nodded and quickly turned around to relay the message to everyone.

Upon hearing this, the villagers immediately sprang into action. Although they were all quite old, they remained very loyal to the fairy's request.

With the help of the vines growing from the magic eye, Lin Ming managed to repair the nearly collapsed wooden houses and even made several small houses woven from vines for the villagers to live in.

While the villagers were dealing with the barbs, Lin Ming also slipped back into the slime network and instantly arrived at Leila's tavern, jumping in through her small window.

It was still that pink-themed, sultry bar, and Lin Ming wanted to complain every time he saw it.

Leila was waiting for the guests at the front desk as usual. When she saw Lin Ming, she greeted him with surprise and started mixing drinks for him.

"My lady, what brings you here? Please, have a seat."

She enthusiastically began mixing drinks, and this time one of the bar stools was specially raised a lot, so that when Lin Ming sat on it, he didn't have to stretch his head to see his cute big face in front of the bar.

Leila finally couldn't contain her excitement and reached out to touch Little Gulu's face, saying as she did so:

"My Fairy, did you know? Your slime balls fetched a high price on the black market, and were even bought up by a mysterious nobleman. I knew this would sell very well, my Fairy!" Leila said proudly.

"He also specifically asked me for your contact information, and he'll be meeting you at this tavern in a few days. He said he's willing to pay a much higher price, three times the price on the black market—a big deal, Fairy."

Leila's eyes were sparkling so brightly they almost blinded Lin Ming. Why did this girl get so excited when talking about this?

"That's alright," Lin Ming said, sounding rather uninterested.

Because his current goal is not money, but money is still a useful thing, right? At least in two or three stages, it might be useful, for example, money for weapons.

After all, it would cost a fortune to raid that beastly kingdom. However, Lin Ming didn't think he could sell these small nutrient balls for the equivalent of arms sales.

"The main reason I came here today is to ask if you know anything about land cultivation, because I'm short-handed."

"Growing? I know a little dwarf who really enjoys growing things."

"A botanist?"

"I guess so, Leila doesn't understand these things either. By the way, isn't Fairy Lady planning to go get the pass? My puppets haven't seen you yet."

"Uh... I'll go over when things are calmer in a few days. I can manage with the healing potion for now."

"Resisting?" Leila frowned. "By the way, Fairy, are you resisting something? Why do you need healing potions and antidotes? You don't look like someone who could be poisoned."

Leila curiously poked the cute little gnome's cheek; it wobbled like jelly at the touch. This creature wouldn't even let you get poisoned; any toxins that got inside would be broken down, right?

"You'll find out later." Lin Ming didn't plan to tell Leila too much.

If fate allows, he should find an opportunity to be honest with her. Of course, they should become good friends, otherwise Lin Ming wouldn't feel comfortable telling others such a thing.

After all, he has now changed from "being in a state where he really needed people's help at the beginning" to "being able to resist these things on his own", so he has no need to reveal his weaknesses to others.

Lin Ming will only tell Leila the reason if she can directly detoxify and save him.

Otherwise, given Lin Ming's current sense of insecurity stemming from being betrayed, he wouldn't be too willing to tell others his true situation.

He now trusts his loyal dog more than people.

"Alright." Leila was a little disappointed, after all, she wanted to understand the fairy more, but it seemed that the other party did not have much trust in her for the time being, and their relationship was only one of favor and cooperation.

Leila didn't waste any words and quickly produced the botanist's contact information.

"Luckily, that lady is currently in the Kingdom of Xiangfang, somewhere in the middle area. As a traveler from elsewhere, she shouldn't have much resistance to beings like slimes or fairies like you."

"Okay." Lin Ming took the notebook Leila handed him, which also contained a photo of her.

She looked short and small, wearing thick goggles and with long ears, looking like an elf older sister.

However, she looks too small, so she has absolutely no connection with the fairy older sister.

"What? Still thinking about your elf sister?" Leila seemed to have seen through Lin Ming's little thoughts and asked curiously.

"It's nothing. I just wanted to take a look, or if that's not possible, an older sister would be fine too." Lin Ming joked, then turned and jumped off the stool. "See you next time."

Watching the little goo roll further and further away by the door, Leila murmured meaningfully, "Big sister is fine too? I wonder if I count..."

The witch behind Leila, controlling the puppets, slightly parted her pink lips. She was secretly pondering something, but then felt shy, and her face flushed slightly.

"Honestly, what am I thinking? A woman over a hundred years old like me can't even be called an older sister, right? I'd definitely be hated and despised." The witch looked down at her chest, which was big enough but not big enough to be an older sister, and rubbed her forehead in distress.

Lin Ming, on the other hand, was quite efficient. He disguised himself as a small blue ball and rolled around in the street. He found that as long as he disguised himself as a ball and no one kicked him, he could sneak around in the street without anyone bothering him.

After Lin Ming opened the notebook, Leila had already marked the first person and address. It seemed that the dwarf was in a flower shop.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Lin Ming jumped into a woman's basket to borrow a ride, and the adventurer team that passed by caught his attention even more.

Especially that beautiful older sister shrine maiden, who immediately concluded that the other party was someone who wanted to enter the inner city, and that the probability of the other party entering the city was higher than that of women.

Adventurers' guilds are usually located between the middle city and the inner city, so you can't go wrong with them.

Lin Ming used the basket as a springboard to jump in, and then jumped into their backpacks.

As soon as Lin Ming jumped in, a fragrant aroma wafted towards him. Looking down, he saw that he was covered in colorful underwear.

"Why is it a bag for underwear?"
