Chapter 32

“Good stuff.”

This was obviously a product with great potential.

Even though players would be able to control fire in the future, it would consume wood to keep the fire burning.

However, fluorescent grass was different. As long as it was planted in the ground, it would continue to glow.

In the future, if it was used as a home decoration to be sold, it would probably have good sales.

After collecting the seeds, Rene looked at the other spoils.

The tree fruit was a red fruit.

Kind of like persimmon, but not entirely.

————

[Tree fruit]

[Quality]: Normal

[Effect]: Edible fruit. Tastes sweet and delicious, rich in nutrients. Apart from being full, it also has a very good recovery effect.

————

It seemed that this was the food of the elves.

Rene took out a tree fruit.

This fruit was the size of a fist, it had a smooth appearance and looked very good.

In the Overlord World, even water and wild beast meat were poisonous, let alone the fruits of plants.

Once an unrecognizable fruit appeared, not eating it was the best decision.

Otherwise, one might die on the spot.

Therefore, this type of edible fruit that could be identified immediately was really rare.

Rene plucked the branches from the fruit and sucked the flesh from within.

He gulped it down.

Immediately, a sweet fruit fragrance filled his mouth.

At this moment, Rene finally felt the taste of life.

Eating meat to survive in the wilderness would always make one feel that their life was very torturous. Only a sweet taste could truly relax their tense nerves.

Rene immediately drained the entire tree fruit of its sweet liquid.

The sweet juices lingered in his mouth.

“So comfortable.” Rene couldn’t help but sigh.

Then, he took out a few tree fruits and filled his mouth with food.

Although Rene was not hungry, his harvest today was enough for him to squander.

After eating several tree fruits, Rene finally stopped.

After collecting his thoughts, he began to turn his attention back to the tree house above.

[Discovered Wild Monster Lair “Tree House”. Occupy it?]

The system notification popped up.

“Occupy it.”

[Occupation successful!]

[As the building is not in your territory, it will return to an owned state in a week.]

Unlike the Slime Lair, this was not Rene’s territory.

Therefore, this lair could not always be in an owner state.

This kind of lair outside the territory would refresh the monsters guarding the territory and return to an ownerless state the next week after it was occupied.

[Do you want to spend 100 silver coins to recruit 10 Flower Elves to fight for you?]

“Recruit them.”

As the tree house emitted light, small elves flew out from inside.

They were very small, but they had a pair of transparent willow leaf wings. They were extremely beautiful, like perfect works of art.

“Greetings, Master.”

The little elves surrounded Rene and bowed.

Every soldier in the Overlord World had their own life and thoughts.

The only difference was their intelligence.

Some soldiers had low innate intelligence. Slimes, for example, had to rely on the accurate orders of their Overlord. Otherwise, they would only jump around idly nearby.

Elves were highly intelligent, so their behavior was very human.

To Rene’s surprise, though, these were not forest elves.

It was a group of flower elves.

————

[Name]: Flower Elf (Rank 1 Soldier)

[Level]: 1

[Health]: 20

[Damage]: 0-0

[Hire Cost]: 10 silver coins per week

[Quantity]: 10

————

Flower elves were not soldiers meant for war.

Especially the low-level flower elves, they had no combat ability at all.

However, flower elves had extremely high affinity with crops. The crops that they looked after could mature in the best state in an extremely short period of time.

Because of this, flower elves were often protected by other races.

This was also the main reason why the soldiers guarding the city were forest elves.

Just as Rene was thinking, another interface notification suddenly appeared.

[Congratulations! Your bravery has affected the flower elf plane.]

[An outstanding Flower Elf Hero is willing to join you. Do you agree?]

Hero?!

Seriously?

Rene began to doubt his ears.

In the rules of games that he knew, heroes were very important words.

He froze for a moment, then nodded quickly in agreement.

In the next second, the tree house emitted intense light.

Soon after, a figure walked out from within. She was only 20 centimeters tall and had a slender and well-proportioned figure. She wore a green veiled dress, revealing a pair of sparkling jade-like feet. She was a very cute little beauty with long hair.

“Flower Elf Envoy Leah greets Master.”

The elf stopped in front of Rene and performed the most respected noble etiquette.

————

[Leah]

[Gender]: Female

[Level]: 1

[Race]: Flower Elf

[Rank]: Rank 2 Soldier

[Grade]: Hero (Purple)

[Class]: Envoy

[Attribute]: Health 100, Attack 3-7…

[Racial Talent]: Flight (Can fly in the air without fatigue)

[Hero Talent]: Accelerated Growth (Increase plant growth speed)

[Skill]: Cultivation (Gives the best care for plants)

Description: The highly intelligent Flower Elf Envoy, with her special talent, can allow the plants under her care to mature faster.

————

This was a hero with a purple grade template.

In the Overlord World, there was a difference between hero and non-hero. The intelligence of non-hero soldiers was limited, and they were ordinary.

As for the heroic soldiers, they had extremely high intelligence. They could lead armies and control the battle situation.

Using the simplest analogy, non-hero soldiers were only “soldiers”, while hero soldiers were “generals”!

They could even be treated as a real person.

After all, their intelligence was higher than most of the players.

In addition, heroic soldiers could wear artifacts.

Unlike ordinary equipment, artifacts had an amplification effect. Furthermore, they could radiate the effect to all the soldiers that the hero led.

“Leah, come here.”

At Rene’s signal, the tiny Leah landed on his shoulder.

From the moment she signed the contract and was summoned, there was a strange connection between her and Rene, an unusual intimacy.

The little elf emitted a refreshing fragrance.

One couldn’t help but pay attention to it.

Rene looked over.

The elf was sitting on his shoulder, just above his ear. She had her fair and slender hands on her linen clothes as she raised her exquisite little head. Her green eyes met Rene’s.
