Natural God's Gift

#350 - Contact the Flame Spider Merchant

Four-Leaf, a solitary figure, traveled alone across the Zhi Bai Continent, unlike the other Flame Spider merchants who moved in packs.

Especially since its carapace carried high-end Origin Power foods and God-given Origin Power foods.

This gradually made its name known among the various tribes of the Zhi Bai Continent.

The tribes in the mid-west of the Zhi Bai Continent all knew of a Mountain Lord level Iridescent Flame Spider named Four-Leaf, who was extremely wealthy and traded only in God-given Origin Power foods and top-tier Origin Power foods.

Some Flame Spider merchant caravans also knew the name of Four-Leaf and had traded Origin Power foods with it a few times.

The only ones completely clueless were probably the Flame Spider warriors of the Iridescent Flame Spider tribe.

"Do we have a Mountain Lord level Flame Spider named Four-Leaf in our tribe?" Two Iridescent Flame Spider tribe caravans were trading with the Black Pincer Scorpion tribe, and during their idle chat, they mentioned the recently famous Iridescent Flame Spider Mountain Lord, Four-Leaf.

In fact, each caravan had a certain reputation within its own trading range, but Four-Leaf was a single spider, so it stood out so abruptly. When members of the same tribe chatted aimlessly, they would always touch upon it.

"Four-Leaf? I don't seem to have heard of that name. What's up?"

"Recently, there's a rather famous Mountain Lord level Flame Spider merchant named Four-Leaf in the mid-west of the Zhi Bai Continent.

It's a lone spider merchant, and it's said that it only trades top-tier Origin Power foods and God-given Origin Power foods, and it's also a Flame Spider warrior from our tribe.

I don't have any impression of this name, so I'm asking if you've heard of it?"

Another Iridescent Flame Spider Mountain Lord pondered for a moment about the Iridescent Flame Spider Mountain Lords he knew, and then affirmed:

"No, I haven't heard of this name."

The Iridescent Flame Spider Mountain Lord muttered, "That's strange, where did such a powerful member of our tribe suddenly come from?"

Another Iridescent Flame Spider Mountain Lord couldn't help but say, "Bai Luo, are you sure you didn't mishear?

Could they be saying Three-Leaf or Two-Leaf, or One-Leaf or something?

We have a Three-Leaf Mountain Lord within our tribe, and the Round Violet Flame Spider tribe has a Mountain Lord named Two-Leaf. Could it be them?"

The Iridescent Flame Spider Mountain Lord named Bai Luo wasn't very sure either: "The tribes I heard it from all said Four-Leaf. One mistake is possible, but not two, three tribes, so many insects couldn't have misheard or misread it, right?"

"Then I don't know. Forget it, it's not related to us. We'll talk about it when we actually meet them!

"Haha, now that we're also traveling in the middle of the Zhi Bai Continent, maybe we'll really run into them." Mountain Lord Bai Luo joked with a laugh, not taking it seriously.

They just chatted for a bit, and then, led by their respective caravan leaders, continued to trade with the Black Pincer Scorpion tribe they were currently with.

Because their caravans were relatively large and the types of Origin Power foods they traded were numerous, it took them several days and they still hadn't completely finished clearing the transactions.

And just as they were busy, a Flame Spider merchant caravan, whose size far exceeded the ordinary ones of the same level, also came to this tribe.

Outside the mountains, at the entrance to the Black Pincer Scorpion territory, Four-Leaf sent out a mental message: "Is anyone there? I am Four-Leaf, seeking to trade."

A Black Pincer Scorpion of equally enormous size emerged from the grass. Its carapace was shiny black, its pair of giant pincers were raised high, its eight scorpion legs moved randomly, and a huge scorpion tail swayed left and right. A large tree with a diameter of twelve centimeters was broken in two by a light tap from its giant tail.

"Flame Spider merchant? Iridescent Flame Spider?" The large scorpion sent out a mental message filled with doubt.

"Yes," Seeing the giant Black Pincer Scorpion, Four-Leaf was not afraid, but calmly introduced itself: "I am Four-Leaf."

The large scorpion came in front of Four-Leaf. Both had eight legs, but the most distinctive feature of the Black Pincer Scorpion was its pair of giant pincers and the long scorpion tail behind it.

"Your Iridescent Flame Spider already has two caravans on the mountain. The trading square is at the top of the mountain, you can go straight up!"

"Thank you." Four-Leaf thanked politely.

"You're welcome." The large scorpion re-entered the grass.

Four-Leaf passed the Black Pincer Scorpion warrior guarding the territory and walked slowly on the mountain path, pondering in its heart the words the Black Pincer Scorpion warrior had just said.

It said that there were already two Iridescent Flame Spider caravans on the mountain, and if it went up now, it would definitely meet them face to face. If it encountered other Flame Spider tribes, it could find various excuses to say that they had met rarely, or that there were other reasons why they hadn't met.

In front of the Iridescent Flame Spider, this reason would definitely not work. No matter how many Iridescent Flame Spider warriors there were, no matter how reclusive they were, those who could be promoted to the Mountain Lord level wouldn't be so unfamiliar with their own kind, right?

As for changing its color now and disguising itself as other Flame Spider tribes, that was not within Four-Leaf's consideration either.

It wasn't doing anything sneaky that required it to hide. It had only transformed into an Iridescent Flame Spider before to make it easier to gather information.

Anyway, it also planned to follow the Flame Spider caravans to the Shang Lu ancestral land this year, so there was nothing wrong with getting to know the Iridescent Flame Spiders here in advance.

Having made up its mind, it didn't delay any longer and went straight up the mountain to the trading square.

Whether in the Myriad Races Continent or other continents, as long as there were tribes of a certain size, they would open up a trading square for trading with the Flame Spider merchants, only the location of the trading squares established by each tribe was different.

The Black Pincer Scorpion tribe's trading square was built at the entrance to the territory, so without the Black Pincer Scorpion warriors guiding the way,

it went directly to the trading square.

On the trading square, the number of Flame Spider merchant caravans was not large, only three, one was a White-Legged Flame Spider tribe merchant, and two were Iridescent Flame Spider tribe merchants.

When Four-Leaf came to the square, all the spiders of the caravans looked at it. There was no way around it, Four-Leaf's size was too large, and it was also a Flame Spider merchant, so it was inevitable that other insects would pay attention to it.

At the same time, Four-Leaf's eight eyeballs also scanned around the square. It carefully counted, there were a total of 32 Flame Spiders in the three Flame Spider caravans in the square, of which there were three Lord-level Flame Spiders, eight Mountain Lord-level Flame Spiders, sixteen Advanced Flame Spiders, and the rest were Elementary and Intermediate level Small Flame Spiders, which could be ignored.

"Hello, fellow tribe member." A Mountain Lord level Iridescent Flame Spider took the initiative to greet: "I am Bai Luo, you look a bit unfamiliar? Are you here to trade too?"

"Yes, I am Four-Leaf, hello Bai Luo."

"Four-Leaf?" Hearing this name, Bai Luo couldn't help but turn to look at the Iridescent Flame Spider Mountain Lord who had just been chatting with her.

They had just been talking about Four-Leaf, and they didn't expect to see the actual spider right away.

"Mountain Lord Four-Leaf, you can find a place in the square to set up your stall."

"Okay." Four-Leaf readily set up a stall in the square.

The other Flame Spider merchants and insect warriors curiously watched from the side, seeing what Origin Power foods were in its goods. Before Four-Leaf had fully displayed its goods, insect warriors had already started asking for prices.

In fact, the Flame Spider warriors were also tempted by some Origin Power food, but with the Insectoid warriors present, they were hesitant to trade.

So, they watched as scorpions of all sizes gathered around Fourleaf's stall, enthusiastically purchasing various Origin Power foods.

Fourleaf was also selling with great enthusiasm. Ordinary Origin Power food was sold at a 20% premium on the Myriad Races Continent, while God-Given Origin Power food was sold at a 30% premium.

Here, ordinary Origin Power food could be sold at a 30% premium, and God-Given Origin Power food could be sold at a 50% to 80% premium.

The 500,000 Origin Power food it brought was directly exchanged for more than 300,000 God-Given Origin Power food, a dozen Spider King Faith Scrolls, and some IOUs through various transactions. When it returned, it could directly exchange them for God-Given Origin Power food to take back.

After a batch of Black Pincer Scorpion warriors finished buying Origin Power food and left, the other Flame Spider merchants approached.

"Mountain Lord Fourleaf," Mountain Lord Bai Luo said politely, "your Origin Power food is quite popular."

"Haha, everyone likes to eat it."

Mountain Lord Bai Luo and the others stood around Fourleaf, examining the remaining Origin Power food.

When Fourleaf was hawking Origin Power food earlier, they also heard the names and effects of various Origin Power foods. A Mountain Lord of a Prismatic Flame Spider picked up a Cone Chestnut and said, "Mountain Lord Fourleaf, how about giving us a Flame Spider internal price for this Cone Chestnut that can increase strength?"

"How much do you want? If you want a lot, I can give you an internal price."

"How about 50,000 Origin Stones?"

"That amount?" Fourleaf pondered, "I don't have that many on hand right now. How about I give it to you in two years?"

"You don't have it right now?"

"Not much left."

"Alright then, we'll talk about it in two years."

Mountain Lord Bai Luo picked up a Sea Soul Fir Seed in its claw, "Mountain Lord Fourleaf, this Soul-type Origin Power food is quite rare, isn't it?"

"Yes, this is a plant that is strictly controlled by a certain tribe. I only managed to get a little because I have a good relationship with them."

Mountain Lord Bai Luo respectfully said, "Soul-type Origin Power food can easily be sold at a 50% premium. Mountain Lord Fourleaf, your connections with this Insectoid vein are limitless!"

"Haha," Fourleaf laughed, "Mountain Lord Bai Luo, you're joking. I'm far behind the Lords and Spider Kings. How can there be any talk of limitless potential?"

"I'm not joking. If you can get Soul-type Divine-grade Fruits for trading and earn the difference, then ascending to Spider King in the future will definitely not be a problem."

Mountain Lord Bai Luo saw the Soul-type Origin Power food and secretly speculated whether there was a Soul-type God-Given Seed.

And as everyone knows, as long as a Soul-type God-Given Seed appears, it is basically a Divine-grade God-Given Seed. Soul-type Divine-grade Fruits are also the most valuable among the many Divine-grade Fruits. If you can get your claws on them even once, you can earn a fortune.

Fourleaf frankly said, "Mountain Lord Bai Luo, do you think I'm a Spider qualified to get involved in Soul-type Divine-grade Fruit trading?"

Hearing Fourleaf say this, Mountain Lord Bai Luo was also disappointed. Indeed, if there really were Soul-type Divine-grade Fruits,

then it would definitely not be something that Flame Spider warriors of their level could get involved in.

Even Lord-level Flame Spiders are not qualified to get involved, at least Spider King-level, and with Divine-grade Fruits of the same level, can they get involved in such transactions.

"Mountain Lord Fourleaf, you must be confident. I believe you will become a Spider King sooner or later."

"Hehe." Fourleaf only responded with a smile.

At this time, another Prismatic Flame Spider Mountain Lord said, "Mountain Lord Fourleaf, my name is Shui Ji."

"Mountain Lord Shui Ji, hello."

Mountain Lord Shui Ji said, "Mountain Lord Fourleaf, excuse me for being blunt, but our Prismatic Flame Spider tribe currently has a total of 213 Mountain Lords. I know all of these Mountain Lords, but I have never seen you in Shanglu. You shouldn't be a Spider from Shanglu, right?"

213 Mountain Lords? Fourleaf was shocked. The Prismatic Flame Spider tribe actually has so many Mountain Lords? This is comparable to all the Mountain Lords in the Flame Spider Kingdom on the Myriad Races Continent, and even more so.

Looking at the entire kingdom from one part of the Prismatic Flame Spider tribe, the Prismatic Flame Spider tribe has so many Mountain Lords,

then the other five parts must not be much less.

Relying on the Zhibai Continent and Wanglan Continent in the early stages of Origin Power Reincarnation, they can afford to raise thousands of Mountain Lord-level Flame Spiders and other Lords and Spider Kings? I'm afraid all the Spiders in the world wouldn't be enough to raise, right?

It thought so, but didn't hesitate for too long on the surface, but said without changing its expression, "Mountain Lord Shui Ji, you guessed correctly, I am indeed not a Spider that grew up in Shanglu."

"What?" Shui Ji and the others were just guessing randomly and didn't dare to be absolutely certain. They didn't expect Fourleaf to actually admit that it wasn't a Spider born in Shanglu.

"Then Mountain Lord Fourleaf, you——" For a moment, they didn't know what to say.

"Then Mountain Lord Fourleaf, how did you ascend to Mountain Lord?" To be honest, there are Spiders born outside of Shanglu, but Flame Spider warriors who have ascended to the Mountain Lord level by their own strength without relying on the Flame Spider Kingdom on Shanglu,

can be said to be almost non-existent.

Fourleaf said, "I awakened in a small tribe, and grew up in the tribe from a Junior Small Battle Soldier to the Mountain Lord level, until I advanced to the six-year-old Mountain Lord level before I started wandering as a merchant."

"Awakened and grew up in a tribe?" The Flame Spider merchants' eyes were full of suspicion. The Prismatic Flame Spider only has one Life Seed, and it doesn't even bloom and bear fruit. How would any tribe be willing to take it in and fund it to the Mountain Lord level?

The Origin Power food for the small tribe's own evolution and growth is not enough. How would they subsidize a Prismatic Flame Spider Battle Soldier?

Mountain Lord Bai Luo said calmly, "Mountain Lord Fourleaf, the Origin Power food required to advance from a Junior Small Battle Soldier to the Mountain Lord level is not small. Which tribe is so generous? We can represent the Flame Spider Kingdom and compensate them well."

"No need," Fourleaf waved its forelegs, and said magnanimously, "My Life Seed is a bit special, it is a God-Given Seed. It can produce God-Given Origin Power food, and I myself will repay them for the Origin Power food they used on me."

"So that's how it is, then you are lucky enough to have directly found a God-Given Seed as your Life Seed." Hearing Fourleaf's words, the Flame Spider merchants suddenly understood.

No wonder the small tribe was willing to support Fourleaf in advancing to the Mountain Lord level. It turned out that its Life Seed was a God-Given Seed.

Their Violet, Prismatic, Watase, Round Violet, and White-Legged five Flame Spider parts can only nurture one Life Seed since awakening. Some Spiders are lucky enough to have the opportunity to obtain a God-Given Seed as their Life Seed to nurture.

Their ordinary Life Seeds do not produce anything, but God-Given Life Seeds can produce God-Given Origin Power food.

The five Flame Spider parts use God-Given Seeds as their only Life Seed. In the history of the kingdom, similar situations occur every now and then. Everyone is envious, but not too surprised.
