In order to prevent the soldiers from waking up and exposing their trail, Xiao Zhi simply tied him up and gagged his mouth, and hid him in an inconspicuous corner.

Seeing Xiao Zhi’s skillful movements, Chiba Wu felt a cold chill on his back.

Hiss… he always feels that Qi ge is a man with a backstory.

After solving the accident, Xiao Zhi took Chiba Wu and continued to move towards the top of Wang Shu.

Getting closer to the top, there was a place in front of Xiao Zhi where plants grew. It was lush and divided into clear blocks, which looked like… a vegetable field.

The plants in the vegetable field are growing well. They seem to have just been fertilized. They are all stained with plant ash.

Xiao Zhi was puzzled: “Why is there a vegetable field here?”

Chiba Wu said, “That is Chiba Wu’s royal vegetable field. The green onions are cultivated there.”

Xiao Zhi: “…”

Isn’t that a test field? You really have a deep love for farming.

Just then, a voice was heard not so far away.

“Have you checked this site?”

“Not yet. It says that every area should be carefully inspected. If you see a suspected Chiba, you must arrest them.”

“Hurry up and send someone over there. Ask your questions later”

There was the sound of footsteps, which sounded not far from where they were, and they were approaching this way.

Xiao Zhi and Chiba Wu looked at each other, feeling that something was wrong. With a wide area and few buildings, it is not a good place to hide.

Chiba Wu was so anxious that his leaves twirled. “Well, Qi ge, do Asanasi people have the kind of talent to hide things? Can you hide me too?”

Xiao Zhi thought about what he meant. He should be referring to the backpack.

Xiao Zhi looked at him: “I can put you there but the conditions are a bit tricky.”

Chiba Wu: “What are the conditions?”

Xiao Zhi said: “If you die, I can put you in but.. can you resurrect yourself again?”

Chiba Wu: “…”

This condition is indeed a bit too tricky.

He humblely said: “Can you do something else?”

Xiao Zhi said, “I do know the art of camouflage.”

Chiba Wu’s black eyes were hopeful..

Xiao Zhi’s next sentence ruthlessly broke his hope.

“But I can only hide myself.”

Camouflage is a weak skill acquired by Xiao Zhi.

After a lengthy cast, you can get the effect of blending into the surrounding environment for a short time. However, after casting the spell, neither you can’t move nor can make large movements. You can only hide yourself and still be harmed.

Often when you want to be invisible, you will find that you either don’t have time to cast spells, or you can’t run away. It is easy to expose flaws.

But there was no better choice at the moment, Xiao Zhi found a big rock nearby to sit and began to cast spells.

Chiba Wu asked pitifully, “Qi ge, what should I do?”

Xiao Zhi gestured with eyes to the Chiba Wu’s Royal Vegetable Field next to him.

“Go in.”

Chiba Wu said incredulously, “I’m a decent Prince of Chiba… …”

Xiao Zhi: “Can I turn you into sliced ​​small greens? Is it decent enough?”

Chiba Wu instantly changed his words: “As the crown prince, it’s good to experience a different life occasionally.”

With that, he stepped away. The short legs decisively got into the lush vegetable field, and mixed with an unknown vegetable suspected of radish and cabbage, leaving only the leaves on the top of his head exposed to the ground, disguised as vegetables in the field.

“Plant ash.” Xiao Zhi reminded him.

Chiba Wu reluctantly flicked his little leaves, and pulled the nearby plant ash onto his head. He also squeezed in next to a green vegetable, pretending to be one of the little leaves of the plant so you can’t see the difference at all.

Soon, the patrolling soldiers had already reached this area.

They searched the neighborhood carefully, searching almost all the places where they could hide.

Xiao Zhi sat on the big rock not far in front of them and watched their movements openly. At the same time, Chiba Wu was nesting in a vegetable field less than two meters away from them, staying as quiet as a vegetable in the field.

The soldiers had no idea that their target was just hiding in front of them.

In their impression,as the crown prince, Chiba Wu must have been carefully hidden under the close protection of countless guards. They did not know that he lost his guards and was also instructed by Xiao Zhi to drill into the vegetable field.

After searching to no avail, several soldiers hurriedly headed to their next target area.

Xiao Zhi moved his body and whispered, “Come out.” Chiba Wu hurriedly got out of the mud and spit out the mud from his mouth. He had drilled too hastily before and took a big mouthful of soil, but he didn’t dare to spit it out. He held it for a long time.

He touched a handful of his own leaves and touched the ashes in his hands. His eyes froze instantly.”Oh, my leaves! I’m not clean anymore.”

Xiao Zhi glanced at him and got up directly.

“Let’s go ”

Chiba Wu was helpless and could only keep up with Xiao Zhi.
·

Finally, the two arrived at the top of Wang Shu.

The Royal Palace of Chiba Kingdom took the route of exquisite beauty. The buildings look very slender. The palaces are scattered and dotted with many plants that Xiao Zhi doesn’t recognize. It looks like a fairyland among the white clouds.

At the same time, the system prompt appeared: “You have completed the task of – “Return to Wang Shu’. You have gained the trust of the Crown Prince of Chiba Kingdom – Chiba Wu”

Then came a huge amount of experience rushing in, directly pushing Xiao Zhi’s level to 70.

Such a rich experience reward is worthy of a hidden task, comparable to the bricks that have been moved for dozens of days under Wang Shu.

Of course, there are also other reasons for Xiao Zhi’s low level. Chiba Wu did not give any rewards in kind, not even a single gold.

After the task is completed, Xiao Zhi can clap his hands and leave.

But hidden tasks are not so simple, they are generally composed of multiple loops. Xiao Zhi glanced at Chiba Wu and decided to follow the other side to move on. He would surely be able to gain other tasks. Besides, he didn’t feel relieved about Chiba Wu, a little green vegetable. This guy looked very unreliable and he didn’t know what would happen to him.

Xiao Zhi asked, “Where are you going next?”

Chiba Wu said, “Let’s go back to my Calyx Palace first. My subordinates are there and I don’t know how everyone is.”

After arriving at the palace, Chiba Wu finally knew the way. Under his guidance, Xiao Zhi slowly approached the palace where he lived.

On the way, Xiao Zhi found that the guards in the palace were unexpectedly few. He asked Chiba Wu, “Is the security here always so loose?”

Chiba Wu looked around and said, “No, the guards in the palace are usually close to my father. This time, Father King went out and took most of them. Now, these should all be Chiba Lan’s people.”

Xiao Zhi understood that Chiba Lan didn’t have many people under him, so he needed to rely on players. Still, they were unable to completely control the palace, but left a gap for Xiao Zhi and the others to infiltrate.

If it were guarded by King Chiba’s guards, I’m afraid they wouldn’t be so easily able to get in.
As soon as they approached the Calyx Leaf Palace, there came an angry roar.

The sound was so loud that Xiao Zhi felt that he was almost deaf. He missed the volume adjustment function in the era of keyboard games very much.

Then came the sound of a building collapsing and even the branches of Wang Shu beneath his feet shook slightly, almost as if there was a giant beast in rage ahead.

Xiao Zhi and Chiba Wu looked at each other, and they sneaked into the Calyx Leaf Palace cautiously.

On the exquisite and wide square, an incredible wood spirit clan stood in it, almost as high as a palace. Compared with him, the nearby trees were as miniature as toys.

Compared with the ordinary appearance of the human race, the wood spirit race that has incorporated some plant characteristics to varying degrees, looks more like a ferocious big octopus. The big octopus-like wood spirits raised their thick roots and slapped the ground. Directly patted the originally beautiful stone bricks into debris.

It seems that he caused the damage just now.

Xiao Zhi was shocked and couldn’t help asking. “What the hell is this stuff? Do you also do biochemical experiments?”

Chiba Wu whispered, “He is Chiba Lan.”

Xiao Zhi asked, “…you guys . Aren’t you brothers? Why do you look so different?”

Chiba Wu was puzzled by Xiao Zhi’s question: “Isn’t it normal for brothers to look different?”

Xiao Zhi: “…”

Does this fall within the range of normal brothers who look different?!

Why is he as strong as a big mountain, but you are just a little green vegetable?! Can’t you two have balanced nutrition.

Xiao Zhi was holding his head in pain, could it be that this is the mission boss?

In the era of keyboard online games, big bosses do not necessarily have high attack power, but in ZERO, the size of the boss represents that they really have the corresponding force. In particular, the boss is mainly a physical attacker, and can be called ‘what you see is what you get’.

A smaller boss may not necessarily be weaker, but a bigger boss is tantamount to telling you blatantly-“You may die if I punch you.”

Sure enough, there will be no easy hidden tasks in the world. How to beat this big monster? If it can’t be beaten completely, the task can’t be done anymore.

Xiao Zhi sighed, life shouldn’t be savaged like this-he was just a weak little mage.

At this time, Chiba Lan’s subordinates came to the square and pressed a group of Wood Spirit Clan. Headed by a pink-haired, beautiful-looking girl from the Wood Spirit Tribe, whose appearance is closer to the human race.

Her hair is dotted with flowers, which is not a decoration, but as someone from the Wood Spirit Tribe, some of these varieties are supposed to blossom.

Although the girl was pressed by someone’s arm, she still walked unhurriedly. No one could see the fear and shivering of a prisoner.

Chiba Wu suddenly became nervous: “Ina! She is my chief female officer. What does Chiba Lan want to do to her?”

He looked at the people who were brought out one after another behind Ina: “Holly, Serine, Gula…everyone has been arrested…”

Chiba Lan looked at the attendant who was sent to her: “Tell me, where is Chiba Wu?” There was silence, facing Chiba Lan’s compelling question. No one chose to betray the Chiba Crown Prince.

Chiba Lan turned to Ina again: “Say it, then you don’t have to die.”

Ina looked at him calmly and said nothing.

Chiba Lan waved the vine whip in his hand and drew it ruthlessly to Ina’s side.

The ground shattered in an instant, gravel splattered everywhere, some fell on Ina’s body and clothes, and some cut her skin and cheeks. A piece of gravel smashed Ina’s hair bun, letting her hair fall, looking a little messy.

Chiba Lan said in a stern tone, “Don’t you find it ridiculous to show loyalty to a useless guy? Tell me his whereabouts and I can make you my subordinate. Following him, you can only accompany him to farm. But with me, you may witness the most prosperous moment of the Chiba Kingdom.”

Ina spoke, her tone still calm: “Do you know why the crown prince wants to nurture the Shahnama?”

Chiba Lan smiled disdainfully: “Who knows what he wants to play again?”

Ina said, “A kind of food called Chinese cuisine came from the Asanasi people and gradually became famous in the mainland. However, the seasonings are scarce and every serving is sold at a very expensive price.”

“By chance, His Royal Highness found a plant called Shahnama. This plant can perfectly replace the green onions needed in Chinese cuisine and is very suitable for cultivation in the country of Chiba .”

Chiba Lan was impatient: “So, you want to say he is an agricultural genius? It’s ridiculous, since he wants to farm, don’t occupy the position of the crown prince! I can give him territory and let him plant happily.”

Ina laughed instead: “You want to become the crown prince, but how come you don’t know anything about the people’s livelihood?”

Chiba Lan took a deep breath, his eyes flashed dangerously, he stared at Ina, and firmly squeezed the whip in his hand, a deep pressure exuded from the body.

Ina is not afraid: “Although Chiba is rich in products, it does not have any irreplaceable scarce resources. It has never been an advantage in foreign trade and is often held down by the demand side. The technology for cultivating Shahnama is only available in Chiba. If you can also cultivate other Chinese vegetables and spices at the same time, it will bring huge benefits to the country of Chiba.”

Chiba Lan seems to be watching a joke: “The king is supreme, how can you waste time on such trivial things? As a conqueror, he should expand the territory of Chiba, and the benefits of plundering will be much higher than the development of trade.”

Ina looked at him, every word uttered loudly: “Then let the wooden spirit warriors fight for your personal ambitions? You want to sacrifice them? Do you know how many families will be broken by war? Do you really know how a war will consume national power? Chiba Lan, you are not worthy to be king!”

Chiba Lan is angry, this small female officer dared to speak to him like this!

Actually, dare to say that he is not worthy to be a king!

He raised his hand high, and he wanted to directly kill this bold and arrogant girl.

Several close servants who were suppressed by the side suddenly rushed out, and they stood in front of Ina and tried to stop the attack.

But Chiba Lan’s body size far surpassed them. Almost just for an instant, all the attendants were taken off and fell to the ground.

Chiba Lan stared at Ina with cold eyes, and ordered: “Kill them all.”

Chiba Wu stood up: “No, I must go out. I can’t let him hurt everyone.”

Xiao Zhi held his shoulders: “Don’t be impulsive, can you beat him?”

Chiba Wu shook his head: “I can’t beat him, but I can’t just sit back and watch my subordinates sacrifice themselves for me and still do nothing.”

He said to Xiao Zhi, “I’ll try to hold him back. Qi ge, can you help me send a signal to my father?”

Xiao Zhi also received a system prompt: “Are you accepting the hidden mission “Summoning the King of Chiba ?”

He accepted it without hesitation.

Xiao Zhi didn’t say nonsense: “How can I do it?”

Chiba Wu quickly said, “The innermost room on the left is my room. There is a dark room under my bed. There is a white flower in it. You only need to tear off a petal. Father will know. But there must be guards inside. Seventh brother, you have to be careful.”

Chiba Wu: “Let it go, rest assured, don’t worry, although Chiba Lan is thick and long, I won’t be scared at all… …” But he was so scared that the leaves on his head shrank.

Perhaps he was also aware that he looked afraid, Chiba Wu tidied up the little leaves on his head and took a deep breath to make himself look calmer.

Xiao Zhi rubbed his head: “Come on, trust me.”

Chiba Wu nodded, “Okay.” After a last glance at Xiao Zhi, Chiba Wu stepped out with his short legs.

He is only less than one thousandth of Chiba Lan’s size, and he is also carrying plant ash and soil from the vegetable field.

But his steps are very firm, he knows that the subordinates in front of him need his rescue, he cannot retreat.

T/N: Actually thought the crown prince is just stupid planting onions but there is a reason.
