In his sleep, Joseph felt some discomfort on his cheeks and helplessly opened his eyes.
The little guy on his head had somehow fallen asleep on his face.
Just as Joseph opened his eyes, the little guy changed into a more comfortable position and fell asleep again.
His body was covered with pure white fur, which looked especially holy in the dim light.
It was as if it was taking revenge for Joseph’s overbearing behavior last night, he kept moving restlessly on his face.
“Seriously, how can you find a girlfriend if you hold a grudge like this!”
After yawning, Joseph was no longer sleepy. He stretched his arms and put the little guy who was still clinging to his face on the bed.
Then, he stood on the floor and stretched his muscles.
“Hah!”
After letting out a heavy breath, Joseph walked out of the wooden house to pick some Fluorescent Tangerines.
Due to the frequent forging of equipment, Joseph did not have many basic resources left, so it was time for him to start a large-scale trade.
Originally, Joseph had planned to carry out the trade last night, but he did not expect the little guy to be so clingy. It pestered him for an entire night until he was so sleepy that he could not open his eyes. Only then did it fall asleep on top of his head.
When he arrived in front of the tangerine tree, the scene in front of him surprised Joseph.
“Who damaged the roots of the Citrus Tree?”
Joseph squatted down and looked at the exposed roots of the tangerine tree.
In just a short night, but it had become like this.
The originally green leaves had now become dull and yellow. Even the Fluorescent Tangerines, which had long ripened, had lost some of their lusters.
If Joseph had not been clear about the appearance of the Fluorescent Tangerines, he would not have noticed such a small abnormality.
Joseph shook his head. He could not be careless in this matter.
The Fluorescent Tangerine had attributes that could recover Mana. It was completely the biggest reliance for him to carry out the clean water trades.
He carefully buried the exposed citrus roots deep into the ground again.
Only then did Joseph stand up. He wanted to look around and see if he could find the reason.
“Meow!”
The little guy, who was supposed to be sleeping, suddenly followed him.
Without saying a word, the little guy pounced into Joseph’s arms. He looked at the Fluorescent Tangerines and kept twitching his little nose.
“Little greedy cat, if you want to eat, go pick it yourself. I still have things to deal with. Be good, understand?”
Joseph thought that the little guy would be hungry again after seeing the Fluorescent Tangerines.
However, he did not expect that the little guy’s nose was still twitching. In the end, it kicked hard with its four limbs and directly jumped out of Joseph’s arms.
Looking in the direction of the little guy, there was actually a Demon Rat digging a hole in the soil not far away, nibbling on the roots of the Fluorescent Tangerine trees.
“Meow!”
[How dare you to cause trouble in front of me? I think you are tired of living!]
The little fellow was indeed a cat that knew magic. With its current body, it was not even one-third of the size of the Demon Rat. However, when the Demon Rat saw the little guy, it immediately trembled in fear, frantically digging toward the ground. it wanted to escape from the little guy’s sight.
“Try to keep it alive, little guy!”
Joseph looked at the little guy’s menacing appearance, afraid that he would accidentally burn the demon rat to death.
One had to know that he still had the Demon Pig Crystal Core in his hands that he had yet to use.
“Meow!”
[Big guy, you’re really troublesome!]
Although it kept ridiculing him, the little guy was still very obedient and pressed the Demon Rat on the spot, not killing it.
“Squeak, squeak!”
The Demon Rat was filled with fear, but its body did not dare to move. It was afraid that this fiend on its body would end its happy rat life if it got angry.
A Demon Pig Crystal core was stuffed into it as usual. Joseph picked up the short sword and waited by the side.
However, the little guy saw that Joseph actually fed the Demon Rat but did not feed it. Thus, it immediately cried out unhappily.
“Meow!”
[Big guy, you’ve changed. You actually abandoned the cute Lord Meow for this damn rat!]
In response to the little guy’s aggressive questioning, Joseph indicated that he did not want to pay attention to him. This was because the demon rat had already transformed under the effect of the Demon Pig Crystal Core.
“Oink, oink!”
The Demon Rat that had just changed its race did not have time to adapt to its new identity before Joseph, who had been waiting for a long time, ended its life with a sword.
“Meow!”
[Big guy, what’s going on? How did the damn rat suddenly become a delicious Demon Pig?]
Carrying the Demon Pig on his shoulder, Joseph really did not know how to explain such a complicated thing to the cute little guy.
He simply said, “This is a secret. If you want to eat delicious demon pig meat, go and find out if there are any cute little rats around here!”
After saying that, Joseph ignored the little guy who did not understand the situation and turned around to leave.
“Meow!”
[Demon rat = Demonic pig = Delicious Demon Pig Meat!]
In the little guy’s pure mind, this was the most correct answer that he could think of!
Ignoring the little guy who was making an earth-shaking mess around him, Joseph once again piled the divided Demon Pig Meat aside.
He still had another more important thing to do.
[Upgrade Blueprint: can upgrade E-Grade Equipment and add additional attributes! ]
Joseph already had a plan about which equipment to upgrade.
He only had the Plate Armor Of The Dead, the Soldier’s Crossbow, and the sharp, short sword in his hands.
Compared to plate armor and crossbow, Joseph was more inclined to the short sword. Besides the fact that he had already learned the basic application of the short sword, there were more limitations to both plate armor and crossbow.
“The sharp, short sword has been upgraded!”
“Ring, ring, ring!”
With the sound of the short sword and blueprint being forged on the Blacksmith’s Table, a brand new short sword appeared in front of Joseph.
After the upgrade, the short sword no longer had the luster of iron. It had turned into a pitch-black dagger.
Even from a distance of one meter, Joseph could feel that the dagger was filled with danger.
[D-grade Equipment: Cursed Dagger! ]
[Effect: a dagger with curse and paralysis effects. When attacking an enemy, it will cause paralysis and a random curse! ]
“Cursed Dagger?”
Joseph picked up the pitch-black dagger. Instantly, a cold chill came from his palm. It was like an ominous weapon. If he accidentally scratched himself, then the result would definitely not be what he wanted to see.
Thinking of this, Joseph turned around and picked up a piece of thick Demon Pig Skin. He used it as a temporary scabbard to carefully wrap up the Cursed Dagger.
“Meow!”
Suddenly, a cat’s Meow sounded in his ear as if it was saying, “Big guy, look at the delicious Demon Pig Meat!”
