Xu Sili stepped out of the inscription space and turned his head to see a young boy with transparent thin wings behind him, flying not far away.
He put his hands on his hips and yelled angrily.
“Shameless outsiders, you aren’t allowed to approach Turles!”
Judging from his appearance, the boy was around 10 years old. He was approximately the same age as Joan.
He had a delicate appearance with blond hair, green eyes, fair skin, and beautiful facial features that revealed a somewhat enchanting beauty. His voice was a bit ethereal when he spoke.
The pointed ears, transparent thin wings, and the fluorescent powder constantly falling around his body all indicated that he was the legendary sprite.
The young boy’s height must not exceed 15 centimeters.
It was just that because Xu Sili had also become smaller, in his eyes, this sprite boy was about the same height as Joan, or even shorter.
He might be angry, but his soft and cute appearance was really not threatening.
Xu Sili used Insight on him.
[Small Round Biscuit]
[Race: Sprite
Profession: Inscription master (five stars).
Level: Lv 42
Elemental Affinity: Metal.]
Xu Sili was slightly stunned when he saw the information he had gained.
This sprite boy turned out to be a five star inscription master! If it was just counted by level, he was even higher than Lilith in her sealed state.
Moreover, his strength had broken through to four stars. It was possible that Xu Sili might not be able to defeat him.
Xu Sili couldn’t help having some thoughts when looking at this little boy.
Such a powerful inscription master must be brought back to Roland to contribute to the development of Escher Star!
Moreover, the Siasa Forest was a mid to high level map. It was basically filled with screaming tree dryads and other exotic plants above level 50. It was too dangerous for the sprite here.
Xu Sili thought of this before smiling slightly. “Hello, Small Round Biscuit.”
The sprite boy was visibly stunned.
He hadn’t heard anyone call his name for a long time. He had been living alone here since Turles left.
Xu Sili didn’t wait for an answer and just asked, “Is this the name that Turles gave you?”
The sprite’s eyes widened. He didn’t say anything but Xu Sili knew that he had guessed right.
He continued, “Did he give you this name because you like to eat small round biscuits?”
The sprite frowned and looked at him suspiciously, but the hostility in his eyes obviously wasn’t as strong as before.
However, he was still alert and fearful when he glanced at Si Sheng.
Ever since Turles created the inscription of the sprite world for him and engraved it into the underground ruins, no creature had been able to maintain their original size after entering here.
Moreover, this man actually skipped the test he set and came to this secret room in the blink of an eye. He was so powerful that it was frightening.
Small Round Biscuit trembled in his heart, but…
This place held the best memories of him and Turles. Turles had also become a part of this stone tablet…
He must protect this place! No one could hurt Turles!
The little sprite boy thought this and a strong desire to fight ignited in his heart again. Then…
He smelled a faint, sweet fragrance.
The fragrance was so tempting and a bit familiar that he couldn’t help gulping. Then he looked up at Xu Sili.
XU Sili took out a box of biscuits from the space capsule and gently opened it.
This was given to him by his second brother.
Ever since the system mall came online, his second brother would buy him a bunch of snacks every time he came to see him. Xu Sili couldn’t finish them all, so he could only share them with the maids and guards in the palace. Then he threw the rest into the space capsule to eat slowly.
Today, these snacks came in handy.
Now the game team had completely found its direction and was committed to providing players with the best and most affordable products. So…
The products produced by the system must be of high quality!
Take the box of biscuits he took out as an example. They might be ordinary fermented bean curd biscuits, but they were full of fragrance and tasted crispy and delicious. After eating one, it was hard to stop.
But…
Xu Sili looked at the mini biscuits that he took out of the space capsule, which were also in a shrunken state. He suddenly thought…
D*mn, this inscription of sprite world was a bit outrageous!
This was simply a magical tool for transporting and smuggling!
The fixed point teleporter had a volume limit.
The Interstellar Alliance’s solution was to use space capsules to deliver goods. If the buyer didn’t need the space capsule, they would send someone to collect it later.
Nevertheless, a lot of transportation costs were saved, and it was safer and more efficient.
Even if it spanned across galaxies, it could be delivered within a few days without having to worry about damage on the way or encountering space thieves. The transportation efficiency was excellent. It could be called the leader in the logistics industry.
After acquiring this technology, the Interstellar Alliance’s business flourished and created enormous profits.
Xu Sili naturally also set his eyes on this piece of cake.
They were now able to manufacture fixed point teleporters. It would be a waste to use them only to teleport players to Bewatt Star.
The fixed point teleporter would come in handy when Aunt Val opened up more trade channels in the future.
At that time, he would build cargo receiving points near the nations he had established trade relations with. Then he would dispatch stationed personnel to deliver the goods.
It wasn’t a good idea to expose the fact that the Roland Empire had mastered the fixed point teleportation technology at present.
Originally, Xu Sili also wanted to use space capsules for transportation and had asked the research institute to start research and development. However, according to Dr Ding’s report, the production of space capsules was more complicated than the fixed point teleporter.
In short, they had encountered a big problem and were trying hard to find a solution.
Now, Xu Sili found that—
Perhaps this problem could be solved using inscriptions.
If he could shrink a battleship to the size of a figurine and carry it with him, what was the difference between this and a space capsule?
Xu Sili was a bit excited, but quickly calmed himself down.
After all, he didn’t know the difficulty of engraving the sprite world inscription. The sprite boy in front of him might not agree to help him.
“Do you want to eat?”
Xu Sili looked at the sprite boy and his tone became gentler. “This is one of my favorite biscuits. You can try it. I think you will like it too.”
Xu Sili looked back at Si Sheng.
Si Sheng understood and mobilized the wind element to lift up the biscuit box, bringing it to the boy.
The boy looked at the biscuit box in front of him and couldn’t help gulping again. Nevertheless, he didn’t get close to take it. He even wanted to vaguely run away, as if worried that he wouldn’t be able to resist the temptation.
Xu Sili didn’t force him and asked curiously, “How long have you been here? Ten years?”
“Is ten years a long time? I’ve been here for 87 years!”
The sprite boy said proudly with his hands on his hips.
Xu Sili looked at him in surprise. “Have you ever been out and seen the world? Do you know how prosperous the world outside is? In addition to biscuits, there are countless delicacies in the world.”
The sprite boy listened to his words. There was a hint of curiosity and desire in his green eyes.
However, he soon said excitedly.
“I’m not going to leave Turles! In addition, I won’t let you take him away!”
“You didn’t complete the test I set. You used despicable means to escape. This can’t be acknowledged by me! Please leave here immediately, or don’t blame me for being rude.”
“Don’t get excited.”
Xu Sili smiled faintly. He continued to take out a small biscuit and nibbled on it. “I am the ruler of the Roland Empire. Siasa belongs to the Roland Empire… Turles should’ve mentioned it to you, right?”
“You speak the Roland language as well, Small Round Biscuit. We are from the same nation. You don’t have to be hostile to us.”
“The ruler of Roland?” The sprite boy paused and looked over suspiciously.
“Yes. Didn’t Turles tell you that the characteristics of the Roland imperial family are silver hair and purple eyes?”
Xu Sili said with a smile.
In the inscription space, he heard the young Turles speaking Roland’s language and guessed that Turles should have a certain sense of belonging to Roland.
After all, a hundred years ago, the Roland Empire was the most powerful nation on Escher Star. Roland was proud of it, and Turles would be no exception.
The young man’s expression also showed that his guess was correct.
Small Round Biscuit looked at him and said, “But Turles never said that the ruler of the Roland Empire was a despicable guy.”
Si Sheng came directly into the secret room without passing through the passage test. This obviously angered the sprite and he was very upset about it.
Xu Sili thought for a moment. “Then he should’ve said that the ruler of the Roland Empire is a man of great power, and the test you set can’t stop us.”
“From another perspective, we’ve completed all your tests.”
The sprite boy was a bit speechless for a while.
Xu Sili said again, “Let’s sit down and talk. I am very interested in Turles’ inheritance, but I have no intention of separating you. The test you set can’t stop us.”
As he spoke, he sent a message to Si Sheng, asking Si Sheng to put him down.
After coming to the ground, Xu Sili took out piles of snacks from the space capsule. It almost formed a small mountain in front of him.
“You haven’t eaten any of these, have you?”
Xu Sili unpacked the snacks. “87 years… I admire you for being able to stay underground for such a long time.”
As he spoke, he picked up a potato chip and put it in his mouth.
Crunch crunch. So delicious.
“I don’t stay underground all the time!” The sprite boy glared angrily.
“Even if you go out into the forest, you won’t be able to eat these delicious foods.”
Roland didn’t produce snacks such as potato chips, but according to the current development speed, it should be soon.
Xu Sili saw that the young man still hadn’t taken the bait, so he had to continue. “You should be able to feel how powerful my partner is.”
He pointed at Si Sheng. “It would be effortless for him to catch you, so instead of being so alert, why don’t you sit down and have a good chat with me?”
The sprite boy flapped his transparent thin wings. He looked over and looked at Si Sheng. Finally, he flew down and landed not far from Xu Sili, still unwilling to get close.
Xu Sili threw him a bag of potato chips and said with a smile, “Want a try?”
The sprite looked at him and then at the bag of potato chips.
In the end, he picked it up and imitated Xu Sili’s actions of tearing open the package. He carefully picked up a piece and sniffed it. Then after hesitating for a while, he finally put it in his mouth.
Xu Sili looked at the boy’s eyes, which brightened instantly, and the smile on his face deepened.
He knew that he was halfway to success.
