Spirit summons? I want to do it myself!

To Liduo's surprise, the students were not able to complete their tasks on time. In the end, about one-fifth of the work was completed with Liduo's help.

Of course, Lido was not the only one who did the whole job. Instead, she was responsible for using a knife to cut the ice and snow crystals into small pieces and scattering them aside.

The students only had to shovel the small pieces into the wheelbarrow, push it to the artificial lake and dump it in. The efficiency was increased many times in an instant.

It was also Liduo's miscalculation, overestimating the speed at which her classmates' strength would recover.

In fact, based on everyone's work efficiency on the first day, it would be more than enough to complete the task.

By the next day, I had barely completed the day's tasks.

By the third day, which was also the last day of the mission, everyone's efficiency had dropped significantly.

The main reason was that everyone’s physical strength had dropped a lot compared to the first day, and blisters appeared on their hands from shoveling ice and snow for two consecutive days, so the work efficiency on the third day dropped drastically!

It seems that this task is indeed set for second-year students. Being one year older, they naturally have many advantages in physical fitness.

Fortunately, with the help of Liduo, everyone completed the task successfully. When they received the task reward, everyone was very happy.

For many students, this was the first time they were paid for their own labor. After all, at a 1:10 exchange rate, three credits were equivalent to thirty gold coins, so they were very happy.

Liduo also told them about the uses of the credit vouchers in the academy, such as opening a private training room in the training hall, or reading books in the library.

Sure enough, no one is aware of this.

The students here all belong to the students with relatively poor family conditions in the class. Except for Lido, Tracy and others are considered to be in relatively good conditions among them.

So they may not have the intention to spend money on cultivation now. It is estimated that they will just follow the crowd to cultivate elves in the future, and we can't expect them to have too much foresight.

So Liduo suggested that they save up the credits, and when they have accumulated 15 credits, they can go to the one-hour training room of the exclusive department.

This is what Liduo thinks is the most cost-effective way for them to use it. She just suggested it, and whether they are willing to follow it or not is none of Liduo's business.

Originally, Liduo wanted to ask them if they wanted to take on another novice mission, but now it seems that there is no need to think about it. It is better to go back and recuperate to prepare for the new semester.

But Liduo didn't plan to stop there. It was impossible to accept the task again, but it didn't mean that Liduo couldn't do the task, as long as she didn't register the task information and hand in the task.

Although there is no mission reward, the mission rewards belong to Lido herself.

Aren’t there many mission cards that clearly state the mission time and location? Combined with the mission content, apart from those transactional tasks and some combat tasks, the rest are mostly resource acquisition tasks.

This is equivalent to telling Lido that a certain resource may exist at a certain time and place.

Of course, only students of the academy have the opportunity to receive such a task that is almost like an open card. They are selling the face of the academy and they also know that the students' abilities are limited.

If you really accept a mission from a mercenary guild, the mission issuer will at most tell you how much resources are required, how much time is limited, and how much the mission reward is.

Want to know the information about the resources? Go find out for yourself! As for how big the mission risk is? Is the reward reasonable? These are all things that the mercenaries who accept the mission have to consider.

There was not much time left during the holiday, and Li Duo only planned to do one job and then stop. There was no other way, it took time to complete the task, and it also took time to deal with the task and harvest.

Among the task cards that Lido had seen in the task center before, Lido no longer had to consider the primary and intermediate tasks.

Whether it's snow removal or patrolling, if there's no reward for the task, does that mean Lido has to work as an anonymous worker for the academy?

The task of collecting snow banyan mushrooms in the advanced task area is actually very suitable for Lido, and the direction is quite clear. Judging from the task description, the resources seem to be quite abundant.

Unfortunately, the mission location is located in the center of the field training area. Since it is the field training area of ​​the academy, it means that this place is under the attention of the academy.

Liduo might run into the academy's patrol team or other senior students who came to complete the task of picking snow banyan mushrooms. Even if Liduo used her mental power to detect and warn at all times, there was still a risk of being exposed.

So it’s better not to cause trouble within the college, but to choose a more appropriate special task to do.

After careful consideration, Lido chose a mission to capture ice thorn fish.

The original mission was to catch five icethorn fish weighing more than ten kilograms before the last day of this month (which was also the last day of the snow season holiday), and the reward was five hundred gold coins and five kilograms of marbled beef.

The task was issued by a famous restaurant in Qingyan City, Shanshui Restaurant. Li Duo had heard passers-by talking about it when she left the academy a few times before. It seemed that its main selling point was its delicious taste and nourishing effect.

The mission location given was the Huashi River next to the academy. This was also the main reason why Liduo chose this mission.

It was great that she didn't have to spend too much energy on finding the mission location. Because Liduo was not familiar with Qingyan City and its surroundings, wouldn't it take a lot of time to find out about an unfamiliar location?

As for the marbled beef, it is not the top-grade beef with rich fat and beautiful texture like marbled frost that Lido had in her previous life, but it refers to the meat of marbled cow.

Snowflake cattle are a type of livestock that is a cross between ordinary beef cattle and domesticated bovine monsters. They are a cross between animals and monsters.

Snowflake beef has many advantages such as relatively mild temperament, large size, high meat yield, firm and plump meat, and nourishing and strengthening the body. However, it is not easy to cultivate and is one of the must-have meats for wealthy people.

The best quality marbled beef costs about thirty gold coins per pound. I just don't know if the five pounds of marbled beef given as a mission reward are just the leftovers. If so, the price will be limited.

Of course, the mission reward has nothing to do with Lido, since she won't turn in the mission anyway. However, when Lido sells the ice thorn fish she caught, she can refer to the mission reward, and if she multiplies it several times, she probably won't suffer too much loss.

As for what the Icethorn Fish was, Liduo had to check it out first. So Liduo spent another credit voucher to read "Detailed Explanation of Continental Warcraft" for an hour in the library on the second floor.

The Icethorn Fish is a magical beast that is unique to the Northern Continent and lives in the fast-flowing rivers in the north of the Northern Continent.

So the location where Lido and the others are is in the northern part of the northern continent, almost approaching the end of the continent.

But in fact, the icethorn fish is just a primary magical beast. It can grow to a maximum weight of about 50 kilograms and reach adulthood at about 8 kilograms.

It seems that Shanshuilou is very conscious of species protection, as long as they are adults.

Although the Icethorn Fish is only a primary magical beast, as an aquatic magical beast, its attack in water is still very powerful.

It is very fast in the water and is at least ten times stronger than an ordinary fish of the same size. It also has the magical skill of shooting ice spikes from its mouth to attack.

Once the ice spines of the icethorn fish hit the target, they will explode on the opponent's body, turning the target into a body covered with thorns. This is also the origin of its name.

Of course, as an aquatic monster, once it leaves the water and reaches the shore, it can be slaughtered by others.

It is said that ice sticklebacks usually live at the bottom of rapids in rivers, being vigorously washed by the cold river water all day long. They only float under the ice when the river freezes during the snowy season, enjoying the breath of ice and snow.

Only during this period of time can the icethorn fish be caught by humans, but it is not something that ordinary people can do, and it also requires a bit of luck.

This is also the reason why Shanshui Tower would issue missions instead of organizing people to capture them themselves.

The icethorn fish feeds on other smaller fish and shrimps. Its meat is firm and delicate, extremely delicious, and can nourish yin and tonify yang, making it a rare delicacy.

After seeing this introduction, Lido felt that her gourmet heart was aroused.

If there are any extra ones, I'll save one for myself, Liduo thought.

But if you want to go out and catch ice sticklebacks, you must leave the college. But the college stipulates that first-year students are not allowed to leave the campus during the snow season vacation unless they have a relative to guarantee them.

So forget about going in and out through the main gate! The only thing Li Duo could do was to find a corner where no one was paying attention and sneak out of the academy using her Qinggong skills in the dark night.
