I was lucky. After accepting the fixed task, the other party also gave me a side task. I was looking for a cat for a city resident. If I found it, I would gain 50 reputation. If I couldn't find it, I wouldn't lose anything.

This kind of task is definitely a no-brainer.

[You accepted a temporary mission: looking for the lost cat.]

【You left Phoenix City and headed to Sunlight Grove.】

Sunlight Grove is also one of the new locations unlocked after Mu You reaches a friendly reputation. It is located to the west of Phoenix City, not far away. Mu You rode a chocobo and rode for more than ten minutes to reach the place.

【You have entered Sunlight Grove.】

[This forest blessed by eternal spring is filled with extremely rich arcane energy. Through the solar barrier that covers the forest, it can absorb sufficient light during the day and is a gathering place for various solar creatures.

, and therefore it will exude sufficient vitality only when the sun is shining.]

[It is getting late, and the forest is quiet. The noisy and bustling sunshine forest during the day looks particularly deserted at night. Only a few luminous mushroom plants are still acting as light sources, lighting up the way forward for you...]

Sunlight Woodland, to put it bluntly, is a place where the Sunlight Elf tribe uses it as a place for their children to get their initial training. Most of the monsters in it are very weak, with an average of only three or four levels, and the highest one does not exceed level eight, and most of them are still weak.

It only appears during the day, which perfectly fits the characteristics of the Sun Elves, but is very unfriendly to outsiders.

Of course, Mu You didn't expect to level up here. He came here purely for the mission. After entering the forest, he immediately started searching non-stop.

Fortunately, there are no restrictions on mounts in this forest. You can directly ride a chocobo to complete tasks without spending too much energy on the road.

After wandering in the forest for more than ten minutes, Mu You finally encountered the first creature.

[The chirping of the chocobo attracted the attention of some strange creatures in the forest, and you saw a transparent plankton floating towards you.]

[This is a petite creature, only as long as an adult's palm. It has dragon horns and a body wrapped in fish scales. It swings its body and flies in the air, as freely as a fish swimming in the water.]

[Out-of-control mana floating dragon: attack power 15-21, health value 300, ability: floating dragon bite.]

[The mana dragon is a gentle creature and generally does not actively attack other creatures, but the one you see has scarlet light in its eyes. This is a sign of loss of control.]

[The mana floating dragon has discovered you, screamed "mi" in its mouth, swung its tail wildly, and suddenly accelerated towards you!]

This thing is a kind of gentle pet. It doesn't even have a level. Even after going berserk, its combat power is still weak. If it attacks Gua Sha, it still only has 300 health points.

Mu You didn't even bother to fight back, and just clicked on an arcane missile on the panel.

[You used Arcane Missiles against the Mana Floating Dragon.]

[Three missiles emerged from the tip of your wand one after another, crossing a zigzag trajectory and hitting the plankton in mid-air with precision like missiles.]

[In the red flash, the Mana Floating Dragon let out a scream, and its entire body suddenly emitted a brilliance similar to an arcane explosion. After the light disappeared, the Mana Floating Dragon turned into a thumb-sized crystal and fell to the ground.]

[You killed the out-of-control Mana Floating Dragon, your reputation is 10, and you received Arcane Crystal*1.]

There is no experience in killing this thing, and it also consumes a little bit of mobility. Fortunately, the dropped items can be exchanged for one year of life, which just offsets the consumption. Generally speaking, it is a task that exchanges time for reputation.

Next, Mu You continues to control the character to wander in the forest.

There are actually not many of these things, and the body is still transparent, so it is not easy to find them in the middle of the night. With the support of his night vision, it takes about ten minutes on average to find one.

After working for an hour and a half, Mu You finally killed 10 mana floating dragons.

It's a pity that there is still no clue about the cat-finding mission.

Mu You did not give up. He still had fifty reputations anyway, so he continued searching in the forest with a lantern. The jack-o'-lantern had never let him down when it came to finding things.

Sure enough, after half an hour of jumping through options at various intersections in the forest, the jack-o'-lantern was successfully triggered.

[Under the cyan glow of the pumpkin lantern, you can see some plum blossom-shaped footprints on the red maple mud under your feet.]

[These footprints of small animals such as cats and dogs are most likely left by the target you want to track. Do you want to track them down?]

"Trace."

[You followed the footprints and finally came to a big golden-red tree.]

[You heard the screams of the Mana Floating Dragon coming from intermittently in front of you, and quickly rushed to the vicinity.]

[You come to the foot of the big tree and see a black civet, staring at you with eyes like bells. And at the feet of the civet, there is a mana floating dragon with scars all over its body, slumped on the ground.

, feebly swinging the dragon's tail, but unable to take off again, like a fish washed up on the shore, about to die of dryness.]

[If you want to get closer, the civet will immediately emit a threatening meow, seeming to warn you not to get close to its prey.]

Looking at this situation, it is obvious that the cat ran into the forest to chase the mana dragon and forgot to go home.

The text suggested that the cat was quite aggressive. After all, it was the target of the mission. Mu You didn't force it. He went to get a can of canned cats and brought it into the game. He placed a trap near the big tree and placed the canned cat on the trap.

[The civet is attracted by the aroma of the food, meows and trots towards the food in front of you.]

[The moment you stepped through the trap, the trap suddenly closed, and the civet was imprisoned in a wooden cage. The civet burst out howling and struggled fiercely in the cage. You turned a blind eye and stepped forward to pick up the cage.]

[You got the ‘lost civet’...]

The mission target was successfully captured, Mu You stuffed it directly into his backpack, and then took a look at the mana floating dragon.

[You come to the big tree. The plankton in front of you has red eyes and a fierce look in its eyes. It is obviously an out-of-control mana floating dragon. Unfortunately, it is too injured and is on the verge of disappearing. You choose

Three options: [Heal it], [Kill it], [Leave it alone].

It's definitely not possible to leave it alone. The drops from this thing are worth a year's life.

However, today's Mana Floating Dragon mission has reached its upper limit. Mu You thought about saving some time by saving it first and keeping it until killing it tomorrow.

Thinking of this, Muyou chose to ‘treat it’.

But what he didn't expect was that some strange texts popped up in the game.

[You picked up the Mana Floating Dragon and wanted to treat its injuries. However, the moment the Mana Floating Dragon entered your hand, you felt some familiar fluctuations.]

[The chaotic flow of magic power in the body of the Mana Floating Dragon gives you a feeling that is somewhat similar to those creatures that have been eroded by natural magic power and then turned black...]

"Huh?"

Mu You was stunned for a moment. They were similar to blackened creatures... Could it be that the reason why these mana floating dragons lost control was also due to the inhalation of natural magic power?

If this is the case, then perhaps we can use secret crystallization to help sort out the chaotic energy into normal energy, just like we sorted out the black magic crystals picked up in the dark forest.

When Mu You thought of this, a prompt popped up in the text.

[You guessed that the Mana Floating Dragon's loss of control might be related to natural magic power, so you tried to use secret crystals to help it sort out its energy...]

The sorting process is very fast, and after about ten minutes, the text reappears.

[You helped this mana floating dragon sort out its energy, and the scarlet color in its eyes disappeared, turning it into a normal mana floating dragon.]

[The mana floating dragon feels the arcane energy that is full of you, which is purer and more delicious food than the arcane energy they usually suck. The mana floating dragon wanders around you excitedly, and actively asks to become your contracted creature. 】

【Do you accept its contract?】

“It’s really cured!”

Mu You was surprised, it seemed that the Mana Floating Dragon's loss of control was really due to the ingestion of mixed natural energy, and after curing it, the Mana Floating Dragon actually relied on him and took the initiative to make a contract with him!

"Accept." There is no reason not to accept the pet that comes to your door.

[You accepted the contract request from the Mana Floating Dragon, and the contract spell is automatically completed.]

[Mana Floating Dragon: After contracting, it can swallow a magic circuit and remember it. During the battle, you can release this magic as you wish to assist you in combat. The magic swallowed by the Mana Floating Dragon is equivalent to the analyzed magic. Current growth rate: Infancy: Swallowed

Other mana floating dragons or arcane crystals can increase the growth rate.]

The text description after the contract surprised Mu You: it was actually a contracted familiar that could assist in combat!

It can swallow and memorize a magic. This description is somewhat similar to the effect of the Arcane Ball. Mu You guessed that the Arcane Ball is made based on the principle of the Mana Floating Dragon?

However, the description of the arcane ball clearly mentioned that it can only copy ordinary magic and cannot memorize black magic, but the description of the mana floating dragon did not mention this limitation...

So Mu You, just in case, took a fireball secret card, put it into the game, selected [Feed], and fed it to the mana floating dragon.

[The mana floating dragon swallows the secret cards you feed like cookies.]

[After some chewing, the card disappeared. Mana Floating Dragon successfully memorized the ‘Small Fireball Technique’.]

"It's actually possible!"

Mu You was stunned. Being able to swallow black magic meant something extraordinary, especially to the twelve mystics.

Because this means that this thing can be used as a card slot!

"Vivian, have you contracted a magic dragon before?" Mu You hurriedly went to find Vivian and asked.

"Mana Floating Dragon?"

Vivian shook her head: "The mana dragon is a companion creature of the sun elves. They only recognize the blood of the daylight elves. Even if other races capture the mana dragon, they cannot make a contract. What?"

Even Vivian doesn’t know this?

But it’s right to think about it. Under normal circumstances, the mana floating dragon cannot be contracted by outsiders, and after the out-of-control mana floating dragon appears, it will be quickly destroyed by the daylight elves, and outsiders have no chance to come into contact with it. Therefore, even if the secret of the previous generation is

The magicians don’t know the secret of the magical floating dragon!

Mu You immediately told Vivian what happened in the game just now.
