Chapter 40

The main product of the Cuckoo Bird Flower and Tree Shop is a tree stump bonsai called "Singing Tree", which can make a chirping sound when the sun is tilted, and is very suitable for keeping in the dormitory as a "natural alarm clock".

Dak passed by the strange singing trees and suddenly became excited. He saw a worm tree planted in a flowerpot in the corner!

The worm tree is a relatively cheap option among the three options, and it is also Dak's first choice.

Compared with the "Magic Brain Bottle" and "Advanced Thinking Bottle", the shortcomings of the worm tree are obvious.

One is that the shelf life is greatly affected by the growth of the worm tree itself.

Once it is not well maintained, it is easy to cause holes in the branches and trunks, and the substances stored in the worm branches will flow out, and sometimes they will be absorbed by the worm branches themselves.

Another is that the amount that can be stored is not much.

Each mature worm branch can only store the amount of 1 to 3 magic brain droppers, depending on the thickness and length of the worm branch.

But it also has very obvious advantages.

First of all, each insect branch is separated, and different emotions can be stored in different insect branches.

Secondly, it is not that expensive!

…

After asking about the appearance and age of the insect tree, Dak finally asked the key point: "How many credits does it cost?"

The owner of the Cuckoo Bird Flower and Tree Shop is a fat aunt. She looked Dak up and down and said kindly: "This is not something that a first-year student can afford. The price alone is 800 credits, and if you want to keep it alive and well, you need to continue to buy the corresponding magic potion. The magic potion is different every season, which is very troublesome!"

Dak thought about it and said: "How many credits does the magic potion cost?"

The fat aunt was stunned, and then smiled: "Autumn magic potion is 30 credits per bottle, which can be used for one month. Winter magic potion is 50 credits per bottle, which can also be used for one month."

Dak thought about it carefully and felt that it was acceptable.

It feels like the insect tree is like an installment payment, with a down payment of 800 and monthly repayments.

And the "Magic Brain Bottle" and "Advanced Thinking Bottle" are settled at one time.

The key point is that judging from the price of this insect tree, the "magic brain bottle" and "advanced thinking bottle" are probably beyond his reach!

Dake did not continue to struggle.

He wrote down the points that the fat aunt said about cultivating insect trees, and then bought this pot of insect tree and a bottle of autumn magic potion.

This pot of insect tree is about 80 cm tall, with eight insect branches branching outward, like caterpillars, and the material is quite similar to rubber sticks.

After packing it in a black bag, Dak poked his head out to take a look at the "Cat Flower and Tree Shop", confirmed that Senior Pandora had left, and then went in.

-He really decided to buy cat grass!

"740 credits left, more than I thought."

Dake estimated that he could buy a lot of things, so he strolled around the cat grass shop.

There are really a lot of cat grass in the store, all kinds of varieties are available.

And the cat grasses look very well behaved.

Every one of them is irresistible.

But while strolling around, Dak suddenly found something wrong.

Because a snake appeared in front of him!

It was a cobra with its tail buried in the flowerpot!

When Dak saw it, it also opened its eyes very keenly and swung its slender body towards Dak's sight.

He was shocked on the spot!

"Don't be afraid."

The clerk of the Cat and Tree Shop was a young lady in her early twenties. Her hair was tied behind her head with a headband. She wore an apron and gloves and looked very simple.

Perhaps she saw that Dak had been shopping for a long time, so she came over and patiently explained: "This is a new variety of cat grass, snake grass. Don't worry that it will bite people. It is essentially a plant."

Dak was certainly not afraid, he was just a little surprised: "Since there is snake grass, it won't be..."

"Of course." The clerk lifted the curly hair that drooped to her eyelids and chuckled, "There are many kinds of animal-shaped cat grass in the batch that just came in. Do you want to go in and take a look?"

...

Chapter 50 Dak Dimon's mistake triggered the follow-up

Walk into the clerk's secret room.

Dak opened his eyes and was stunned.

"What kind of genius designed the cat grass?"

There were dozens of pots of cat grass in the whole room.

All kinds of cat grass were drowsy under the influence of special spices.

The most conspicuous one was a huge snapdragon!

The scene of fat goldfish with white scales and red fins growing on the grass leaves was like a nightmare!

If cat grass is the creation of human bliss, then that snapdragon is the creation of the devil!

Around the snapdragon, there are other inexplicable new varieties of cat grass such as snake grass, skunk grass, hedgehog grass, earthworm grass, eel grass, pigeon grass, abalone grass, mouse grass, octopus grass, spider grass, scorpion grass, lizard grass... and so on!

Seeing that Dak was so surprised that he couldn't speak, the saleslady asked, "How is it? Do you have any favorite varieties?"

Dak raised his hand to press his chin back, and said after a while, "That goldfish is good."

"Really?" The saleslady was immediately surprised, "I think it's very good too, the dull and slightly lifeless fish eyes, the fish mouth that never closes, and the feeling that it is slightly fatter than ordinary goldfish, wow, it's so cute!"

Dak: "Hehe."

The saleslady continued to talk: "In fact, this batch of new varieties is a special improvement made by someone we hired. It is still in the testing stage. The main thing is to see how the response is. If the response is good..."

Dak interrupted, "I'm looking forward to your finished product. Why don't we go see the cats?"

The saleslady paused, "I'll just say it."

...

After returning to the store, Dak continued to choose cat grass, and finally picked a shorthair-looking kitten from a group of cat grasses.

Dak didn't have any preference for cat breeds, he liked them all.

It was more like the kitten biting his finger than saying that he picked the kitten.

The way it used its two paw pads to hold his hand and sucked his finger hard instantly captured Dak's heart.

[Rage -1]

The effect was immediate.

The hidden danger of "rage" accumulated in his heart seemed to be relieved a little because of its appearance.

If described in the form of a comic, his cheeks must be round at this moment.

The price of cat grass is not expensive. Such a pot only costs 50 credits, and a small bottle of cat juice is 1 credit, which can be used for two or three weeks.

Dak paid the credits readily and planned to take the insect tree and cat grass back to the dormitory first.

When he passed by the Forest Coffee Shop, he subconsciously glanced inside and suddenly saw Emma arguing with a senior.

Both of them held the same book in their hands, and both had serious and angry expressions.

But looking at the expressions of other seniors around them, they didn't seem to care?

Instead, they nodded frequently.

…

"Is this a women's tea party?"

Dak smacked his lips and felt that this place was really a devil's cave.

So he left without looking back.

When he returned to the dormitory, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.

He placed the cat grass on the wide balcony and, according to the clerk's instructions, tied the strap extending from the flower pot to the railing to fix the flower pot.

In this way, the cat grass will not run around.

When it gets used to the environment here, even if you want to drive it out, you probably can't do it.

Then, Dak used some special spices bought from the clerk and sprinkled a few grains on the top of the cat grass, and it fell into a drowsy state.

…

After doing all this, Dak moved the most important insect tree to the desk, compared it with the description in the book, and carefully observed and recorded it.

After confirming what he thought in his mind, he took out the magic brain dropper and the thinking bottle, and prepared to transfer the two drops of "arrogance" stored in the thinking bottle to one of the insect branches of the insect tree.

The whole process took ten minutes. There was a small hole at the front end of the insect branch like a worm mouthpart. A little injection of magic power could open it, and it would close when the magic power dissipated. There was also a layer of liquid mucous membrane inside that could lock the thinking substance inside.

After being injected with thinking matter, the insect branch would become hard and present a strange "heavy" state, hanging down like a ripe fruit.

Once it hangs to a certain arc, it means that it can no longer be contained.

Dak judged that there should be more "arrogance" in this insect branch, so he sucked out the overflowing "arrogance" and injected it into it according to the "dragonfly method".

In this way, there are three drops in it.

And Dak's "arrogance" index, plus the one point that has quietly increased this week, still has 104 points.

In general, he has now controlled the various values ​​of the seven deadly sins quite well, and has entered a good state of only slow growth.

And his next plan is to try to make a magic card with 10 points of "arrogance" injected!

The planned production time is next month, that is, after Halloween.

The current three drops of "arrogance" and the next two drops of "arrogance" that will be absorbed will be stored until the beginning of next month.

During this period, he must take good care of the "worm tree"!

And master more and more comprehensive knowledge of magic card making!

In addition, the plan to collect flower cards also needs to be put on the agenda.

He looked at his remaining credits and decided to go to the traveler street again.

Of course, first of all, we need to move the insect tree to the balcony to bask in the sun.

…

Dake only asked Diana and Rose about the information about flower cards, and his knowledge was very limited.

But he roughly knew that this kind of thing was currently being circulated in two ways.

One of the ways was "giving away". Some people gave away flower cards by inserting them into the door cracks of student dormitories.

Dak had received a flower card with a white mandala before.

He initially thought that this was a model similar to "distributing flyers", but later found that not everyone could receive this "gift"!

It can be seen that the other party was targeting people.

Another way for flower cards to spread was Traveler Street.

It seems that someone sold a large number of flower cards to some shops on Traveler Street, and those shops gave flower cards as gifts to students who came to shop.

But not everyone gave them away.

At present, Dak knows that the only shop that clearly gives away flower cards is the Fun Candy Store.

So he decided to go to the candy store first to take a look.

Even if I can't get anything out of it, it's good to get one more card.

...

When he came to Traveler Street again, without a strong purpose, Dak's vision became much broader, and he saw many details that he had never noticed before.

The biggest treasure hunting place in Traveler Street seems not to be those shops, but the stalls everywhere!

The senior students who set up stalls on both sides of the street really sell everything!

He even saw a semi-finished magic card that was almost cheating, with a completion rate of over 90%!
