The Flower Farm had a longer history than the Flower Town.
Eighteen years ago, Lee William Tulip, who had just been granted the Coral Island, launched his Orders of chivalry to explore the island's terrain and found a field of flowers.
Among the flowers, there were two new varieties of Tulip, which were flourishing.
For the Tulip family, Tulip was their lifeblood. Therefore, the count moved his subjects to grow Tulip. However, because of the inconvenient transportation, the count transplanted the new varieties of Tulip to the Coral City within a few years, and the Flower Farm gradually declined.
Today, except for a small number of Tulip, the flowers on the Flower Farm had been eradicated and other crops, such as barley and wheat, were planted.
Therefore, when Liszt arrived, he did not see colorful flowers, but only green wheat sprouts.
"Sir Lord, there are only 20 mu of tulips left here. The red ones are the Sundance Tulips, in memory of Sir Lord's ancestors. The yellow ones are the William I Tulips, in memory of Sir Lord's supreme glory." Steward Victor, whose hair was grizzled, sighed endlessly.
At its peak, the Flower Farm had a total of 800 acres. Now, it was only 200 acres, and 180 acres were planted with wheat.
"Not magic ingredients?"
"Unfortunately, they are indeed not magic ingredients. That is why His Excellency the Count rarely picked the tulips here. But now they are going to be revived. Sir Lord, look over there, in the Tulip field, there is a Black Tulip with purplish-black flowers, which I have never seen before! "
Liszt looked over. Indeed, the Tulip stood out from the surrounding yellow and red Tulip. It was purplish-black.
It was like a proud black swan quietly combing its feathers in the arms of a flock of geese.
"Is it a magic ingredient?"
"I don't know, Sir Lord."
"I'll go take a look." Liszt pushed aside the ordinary Tulip and walked up to the Black Tulip. He touched the purplish-black petals with his fingers. Suddenly, he perceived a familiar yet strange aura.
His eyes lit up.
Liszt revealed a satisfied smile. "It's a magic potion!"
Magic potions, magical ingredients.
The mysterious Magician's spellcasting was inseparable from the assistance of magic potions. The Knight's Dou Qi cultivation was also inseparable from the assistance of magic potions. All kinds of mystical treasures more or less required magic potions as supplementary materials.
Even though the prices fluctuated greatly due to the different uses of the potions, the cheapest potion could be sold for at least one silver coin.
Liszt had never heard of a magic potion that was cheaper than a silver coin.
Mastering a magic potion was equivalent to mastering a huge amount of wealth.
Now, the Black Tulip was growing in Liszt's territory. Without a doubt, this wealth belonged to Liszt. According to the aristocratic system and laws, even a count had no right to seize the interests of a lesser lord. Allegiance was one thing, but interests were another. A lord would be enfeoffed to a lesser lord, and the lesser lord would have everything in the territory.
"It seems that I have not only gained a fortune, but even my Tulip sprite worm has found its new home." Liszt took a deep breath, "The flower farm should indeed be revived!"
He signaled Manager Victor and his retainer Knight to withdraw from the Tulip field.
He crouched alone next to the Black Tulip.
He concentrated his mind and calmed his breathing.
After a short while, a faint smoke appeared before his eyes, twisting to form words.
"Mission completed. Reward: a new variety of Tulip."
Then.
The smoke twisted and the words changed.
"Mission: the declining flower farm seems to have ushered in a turnaround in its fate. A new variety of Black Tulip should shoulder the heavy responsibility of revival together with the Tulip sprite worm. Please help the Tulip sprite worm settle down its worm stalk. Reward: a World of Warcraft youngling. "
The mission had been updated.
It was not difficult at all, just like a gift.
What made Liszt's eyes shine was that the reward was a World of Warcraft youngling.
World of Warcraft, the most common Low-Level World of Warcraft, was more powerful than a Trainee Knight and could contend against an Earth Knight. The Windblade Wolf Liszt encountered a while ago was a Low-Level World of Warcraft, which was slightly inferior to Earth Knight Markus. Some Low-Level World of Warcraft could even contend against a Sky Knight.
"What World of Warcraft youngling will it be? Can it be raised or slaughtered?" Liszt was very much looking forward to it.
… …
"Master, the Tulip sprite worm has been brought." Butler Carter, escorted by his retainer Knight, arrived at the flower farm and solemnly handed a jade box to Liszt.
After taking the jade box, Liszt could feel that there was a lively little life inside the box, which was connected to him by blood.
He opened the box.
Immediately, he saw a light yellow "baby silkworm", thicker than a thumb and shorter than an index finger, with cyan-colored stripes on its back. Compared to the baby silkworm, the sprite worm had a jade-like luster all over its body. It looked like a long wriggling jade strip, extremely beautiful.
At this time, the sprite worm was lazily sleeping on the powder of nephrite powder.
During the transplanting period, the sprite worm's worm stalk was in its stomach and could not provide nutrients, so it had to gnaw on the jade powder to maintain its vitality. Jade, also known as magic jade, was a stone with magic power. Although it was much cheaper than the gemstones produced by dragons, it was still a rare treasure-grade mineral.
"Little guy, have you rested enough? It's time to take a look at your new home." Liszt extended his index finger.
Sensing his thoughts, the lazy Tulip sprite worm slowly climbed up his finger and rested on his palm. Its sesame-sized bright black eyes looked around, as if sizing up the environment of its new home.
"What a beautiful life. No matter how many times I see it, I still can't get enough of it." Gort, who had rushed over, looked at the sprite worm and exclaimed in admiration.
As a destitute Chevalier Knight, he did not have a sprite worm.
As a Chevalier Knight, the lowest rank in the aristocratic system, he often had a fief, and the rich could buy a sprite worm. However, Gort's fief had long since declined and was sold off by him, becoming a destitute Knight without a fief. Naturally, he could not afford to raise a sprite worm.
Liszt walked to the center of the Tulip field, pointed at the Black Tulip, and said softly: "Little guy, settle down here and plant your worm stalk."
Thanks to the contract, the sprite worm understood Liszt's thoughts.
It slowly opened its mouth and spat out a green radiance, which fell into the open space next to the Black Tulip. Immediately afterward, a Tulip took root and germinated, growing branches and leaves. At the top of the cyan branches and leaves was a pale yellow Tulip. This was its worm stalk, which could affect the growth of the surrounding several tens of mu of Tulip.
As a sprite worm, it could probably make a Tulip grow two more seasons.
Moreover, the quality of the Tulip would be improved.
Liszt placed the Tulip worm into the worm stalk flower, which was its home. Apparently, spitting out the worm stalk and replanting it had consumed a lot of its physical strength. The Tulip worm lay lazily in the flower, motionless. Liszt had no choice but to urge it: "Little guy, there is a new Tulip next door, don't you want to try it?"
The tempted Tulip worm slowly crawled out of the flower and up the leaf along the stem. Then, it continued to crawl up until it reached the tip of the leaf.
Just as it was about to fall, it raised its head and crawled into the air.
Its body emitted a faint radiance, as if it was crawling on a transparent object. Little by little, it "crawled" towards the Black Tulip flower next door.
It wriggled its fat body.
The Tulip worm responded to Liszt with an "excited" emotion, and then rolled around in the purple-black flower – this was assimilation.
It represented that the Tulip worm began to collect the "pheromones" of the Black Tulip and applied its ability to the Black Tulip.
Of course, Liszt was more willing to believe that the Tulip worm was collecting different genes to improve itself.
After collecting enough, it would have the opportunity to evolve.
In Tulip Castle, there were two Tulip worms that evolved into Tulip Lesser Sprites by relying on this method. One of them was given to Liszt's sister, Li Weiwei. In Liszt's memory, he was envious and jealous of this. When he was conferred the title of Baron, he became even more jealous.
