The Cannon Fodder in the Global Apocalypse Game lives a leisurely life-Chapter 419: A Good Luck Knot

Siri remembered his purpose for coming here.

"Master, seeing the average level of the residents, I’m worried about their progress..."

His worries only increased when he found out his Master’s level already surpassed 50.

He can never understand how his laid-back Master can level up so fast.

"That is why I’m planning to resume apothecary or train a few apprentices. If we add potions that can recover mana, stamina, and health in the exchange list including the bandages, this will help the residents level up faster and increased their enthusiasm in completing tasks."

"Additionally, since there is only little time before the second weekly tide, we need every help we can get."

Not only that, they should accept tailoring and blacksmith apprentices too.

And when these apprentices are able to become Masters in their field, they could open a shop of their own which will decrease the burden on the territory’s part.

At the same time, the territory could get the fruit of the initial investment through the taxes.

Siri nodded in his head.

"Second, is building more facilities like Alchemy room, Clinic and Pharmacy where the healers class can increase their skill proficiencies in a safe environment and the pending expansion. Master, you need to level up the training field and the farm."

Siri was aware of how difficult it is for healers, a support-type class to level up without a reliable team. They were cannon fodders. Siri wanted to protect dwindling numbers.

Siri talked about a few more things before going to the main topic.

"Lastly, do you have any use for that Black haired and red eyed guy that tag along with you?"

"Oh, do you mean Long-legged, Long haired- ehem...I mean Nikolai? I actually don’t. I’ll leave him to you Brother Siri."

"Don’t worry Master, I’m going to put that tireless worker, I mean bloodling to good use." On the angle Chunhua couldn’t see, Siri grinned wickedly.

Nikolai who was taking a nap awakened to the sound of the door being blast opened, "Insolent! Who dares to disturb my...sleep?" The bloodling was terrified of the being smiling wickedly in the door and couldn’t finish his wrathful speech.

Siri liked the current expression on the Bloodling’s face. It was no longer pompous. "Rise and shine, Little Bloodling Princess! You’ve got a long day ahead of you."

Nikolai shivered, recalling what happened last night.

A few minutes later, Nikolai gritted his teeth as his eyes glared at the pearls in front of him.

[Methods to create Memory Pearl]

[Hydrogen Power Plant Turbines]

[Atlantis City Infrastructural Project]

[Elliptic Bead- Silver Grade]

[Memory Pearl- Silver Quality]

That cunning Elf’s words still rang in his ears, "I need the memory pearls as soon as possible. Since you’ll be staying here, you need to know that accommodations and food are not for free. Your job is to successfully produce at least one project blueprint every week; otherwise you’ll what will happen, right?"

That Elf was threatening him with his bad luck!

Nikolai cursed under his breath. None of them are lucid! All of them are crazy!

He should have never gone to that lagoon!

Now, he regrets it so bad.

Through the tiny gap of the door, Siri observed the bloodling inside. He could tell at one glance that Nikolai was very angry.

Because there was no researcher in the territory and he had only time in his hands, he had to dump this job on someone else.

Bloodlings are creatures with endless curiosity and because of this trait, a lot of famous magic researchers came from their race.

The memory pearls are great teaching tools and it can also serve as a monitoring magic device.

When Haoran came to make breakfast, he was not expecting to receive a gift today.

His eyes were glued to the red silk yarn with four small and three large loops surrounding a woven square in the center, resembling a flower knot.

Below the flower knot was a royal blue jade stone with a hole in the middle where the bottom red tassel was tied.

"It’s called a good luck knot. My Master said that lucky knot meant ’winding encirclement, everything is clear. I wished that everything will go well in your way and all of your paths are unblocked." The red-faced Chunhua said as she gave the knot to Haoran.

Her eyes were unconsciously observing Haoran’s face in case he dislikes it.

[Basic Appraisal Skill Activated]

[Good Luck Backpack with Jackuard Crimson Silk Thread- Epic Grade

-A jade with a pocket dimension inside... The wearer can store items up to 100 cubic meters. No mana needed.]

Chunhua had made it while she was in the blacksmith shop. At first she wanted to give him a necklace but at the last moment, she thought it would be better if she made it herself. That would make it more sincere.

But she overestimated her skills and the result was an ugly knot. To compensate, she added a dharma spell on the yarn.

It may be unsightly in her eyes.

But to the man standing across her, it was far more than that.

Haoran stared at the knot on his palm. She made this? He didn’t seem to notice that the loops were not of the same size or a thread loosely sticking out. All he saw was a beautiful knot.

One could tell that he genuinely liked it. "How do you wear this?"

"It’s easy. Let me put on you." Chunhua was relieved that he didn’t mind her clumsy handwork.

Put on him personally?

Haoran’s eyes teemed with unknown glimmer and he passed the knot to the girl without hesitation.

Chunhua grabbed the knot and bent over around the man’s waistband. "It’s like this..."

Haoran didn’t seem to her words because his mind was preoccupied by the pair of hands touching his belt and her happy expression.

Chunhua also seem not to notice the man’s eyes becoming murkier as the second went by when her warm breath escaped her mouth every time she uttered a word.

After she was done, she asked with somewhat shy and cautious voice. "Do you like it?"

"Yes, I liked it." Haoran’s fingers grazed on the red knot hanging on his belt while replaying the scene over and over in his head.

It’s like a wife helping her husband arrange his tie before going off to work.

He liked it very much.

After that sentence crossed on his mind, someone wasn’t expecting to get something in return.

For the second time, a shy rabbit cupped her cheeks and was planning to escape.

Haoran caught it by the waist before it completely run away. "Don’t you want breakfast?"

It successfully pinned down the rabbit and Haoran brought it to living room.

The moment the silky pudding entered Chunhua’s mouth, she partly forgotten her embarrassment. "It’s so delicious."

"Hey Master, where the heck all the eggs went?"

Zurui sighed. What can he say? It was extorted by his brother.

"Is there an egg thief?"

"There’s none. Eat this!" Zurui placed the rice ball in the native’s hands.

"What is this? It’s so delicious!" The native’s eyes twinkled.
