Start With Contracting Sprites

Chapter 66: Attacked!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Although it was called a spiritual spring, it was actually just a well.

According to Heavenly King Zhou, this spiritual spring could transform the spiritual force it absorbed into some kind of special spring water.

Drinking this kind of spring water could slightly increase a sprite’s spiritual force.

“This kind of spiritual spring isn’t considered precious. It’s just merely useful to entry-level sprites.”

He then said, “Many of your sprites are currently at the limits of their spiritual force. The effects of the spiritual spring will still be effective after break through.”

According to Heavenly King Zhou, the special thing about the spiritual spring was that after the spring water left the spiritual spring, the effect quickly faded.

If they wanted to enjoy the effects of the spiritual spring, they had to bring their sprites here personally.

Of course, drinking too much of it would be useless.

Every treasure would show the best effect the first time.

Heavenly King Zhou’s gaze swept across the dozen or so sprites near the spiritual spring before he instructed Tide-Calling Spring Sprite, “Give each sprite a mouthful of spring water.”

Just then.

The clear spring water with bits of sparkling white light emerged.

More than ten mouthfuls of spring water were controlled and poured into the mouths of every sprite.

“Coo…”

Silkworm Baby was caught off guard and wanted to speak, but it quickly shut its mouth again, afraid of wasting any drop of the spring water.

“Alright, we can go back now.”

Heavenly King Zhou said.

The group of newbies was stunned.

So… unpracticed?

But in Su Hao’s eyes…

Silkworm Baby’s spiritual force was increasing.

The spiritual spring was far less valuable than the Heart of Attributes, but Silkworm Baby, which had just broken through, happened to have potential that could be explored.

His spiritual force increased to about 215.

Little Fire Crow’s growth was even more pronounced.

Its spiritual force, which was initially less than 110, had increased to 130… This was also the reason why Su Hao had nurtured Little Fire Crow’s foundation very well.

...

After spending about two hours in the New World, Su Hao and the others left under the lead of Heavenly King Zhou.

When they left, to the surprise of Su Hao, the checks were even stricter than when they came in.

They even specially checked the “pile of treasures” dug up by Silkworm Baby. The problem was that there was no problem, but it made Su Hao understand some rules.

For instance…

There was no charge for carrying items below 20 kilograms.

But when one exceeded 20 kilograms, they had to be charged a certain amount of “border fee”.

It was the same for bringing things from Planet Aquamarine.

...

The next day…

At 9 a.m., the weather was gloomy.

Large buses drove away from the entrance of Battle Preparation Village like a long dragon.

The joint examination of the five schools came to an end.

In the car, many students were chattering about the joint examination, the training, and the hardships back then. When they recalled the memories, they were all filled with pride and fulfillment.

They were people who had survived in the forest!

Compared to when they just arrived, everyone looked completely different.

Sprites that had gone through the baptism of fighting in the wild also had a bit of murderous aura, no longer looking like sprite pets that could only act cute.

They were all battle companions.

“Great God Su, you’re so awesome this time. You’ve won the championship on behalf of our An City First High. It’s already a sure thing that you can get into a prestigious sprite school in the future.”

“Yes, yes, Big Boss Su. At the start, I already felt that it was abnormal how you weren’t on the list of seeded candidates. How can it be possible with Big Boss’ abilities? Indeed, Big Boss, you’ve used your battle results to smack the faces of Affiliated High, First High, and those other seeded candidates.”

Su Hao was rendered speechless.

What should he say?

He had nothing to say.

Su Hao closed his eyes to rest. The interface map surfaced in his mind.

The map moved with him as the center. The range was not that big.

However, Su Hao was currently on the bus. It was a long distance from Battle Preparation Village back to An Cit. He was exploring whether there was any chance that a spiritual plant marked on the map would appear on Planet Aquamarine.

“It seems like… something has appeared!”

Su Hao was shocked.

On the map, a few dots appeared on the left and right sides of the road ahead. As the bus moved forward, the dots enlarged rapidly.

Su Hao saw it clearly.

It wasn’t a special item.

It was a sprite.

“Wild sprites? Or the sprites of other Sprite Trainers?”

Su Hao looked out of the window.

The woods on both sides of the road were lush. According to the map, the sprite was hidden in the woods up front.

Hidden?

Su Hao suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Suddenly…

The bus in front made an ear-piercing screech and stopped urgently.

The bus Su Hao was in braked urgently too, its body shaking violently.

Countless students screamed out of surprise from inside the bus. Fortunately, everyone had their seat belts on, so they weren’t thrown out from the impact.

But their minds already turned blank.

“What happened?”

“Why did you suddenly stop? Did you get into an accident?”

Everything was in a mess, and some sprites which didn’t manage to grab onto anything firmly bumped up front, their eyes spinning.

Su Hao couldn’t see what was happening in front either, but he suddenly had an ominous feeling.

Sitting at the front of the car was the older Sprite Trainer of the Six-Winged Flying Silkworm. He immediately unbuckled his seatbelt and stood up.

“Don’t panic!” he shouted loudly. “Everyone, pay attention to your surroundings. Get off in an orderly manner, but don’t go too far away…”

Before he finished speaking, a raging and burning fire dragon burst out of the woods on the right, attacking the bus that had already came to a standstill.

“Slash it!”

The Six-Winged Flying Silkworm turned into an afterimage and smashed through the car window. With a flap of its wings, a golden line burst out, slashing the thick fire dragon directly, sending sparks flying everywhere.

After slashing the fire dragon, the Six-Winged Flying Silkworm got ready to rush into the woods.

At this moment…

A golden energy ball flew out of the woods on the left.

The older Sprite Trainer’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

Once the metal-element Energy Ball exploded in the bus, it would create an explosion that dealt damage to the bus. It could take the lives of many students in an instant!

Since they had left the Battle Preparation Village, the Sprite Trainer already returned the wristband borrowed during the joint examination.

Otherwise…

The strength of the wristband could still protect the students from the explosion of this Energy Ball.

The Six-Winged Flying Silkworm hurried back.

But it was too late.

There was even a bus in the middle. Even if he wanted to use Granule Machine Gun to intercept it, he couldn’t do it.

At this moment…

The older Sprite Trainer heard a calm and reliable voice.

“Silkworm Baby, Energy Ball!”

A light yellow sprite smashed through the window with a green ball of light, the size of a basketball, condensed in its mouth, and flew out with a whoosh.

Boom!

The two golden and green energy balls collided in the air. The violent explosion set off waves of shock as the car window on the left side shattered with a pop.

Using his hand to support himself, Su Hao leaped out of the broken window.

He quickly scanned his surroundings.

They discovered the culprit which intercepted the bus ahead.

Rows of sharp spikes pierced the highway.

A final evolved form of a small Rolling Stone, a stone giant more than four meters tall, emerged from the woods.

He raised his arm to smash the bus, but was stopped by a Tyrant Bear summoned.

The figures of unfamiliar sprites also appeared around the other buses carrying students from An City First High.

And right then…

Silkworm Baby who also rushed out of the bus had already thrown out a second Energy Ball at an extremely fast speed. It exploded loudly in the woods.

A Golden Roaring Lion leaped out of the woods, with a figure sitting on its back.

His face was murderous.

It stared hard at Su Hao.
