The Double Drop Buff Surviving The Endless Ocean novel Chapter 119

Chapter 119

The old goat suddenly fell over right in front of Leeanne, making her jump.

“What, are goats into faking accidents now? And it’s an old goat. Is its whole family about to show up and gang up on me? Leeanne thought, feeling a bit annoyed.

Leeanne’s expression turned serious. “Hey, I didn’t touch you,” she said.

She didn’t want to mess with this old goat, so she sidestepped it and moved on.

But the old goat immediately got up, rushed a couple of steps ahead of Leeanne, and dropped right in front of her with another loud thud.

Leeanne frowned at it.

The old goat raised its hind leg and pushed it toward her.

Leeanne finally noticed the goat’s hind leg was hurt.

There was a massive thorn embedded in its hind leg, almost the size of one of Leeanne’s throwing knives.

The wound was swollen badly, and blood was seeping out.

“Are you trying to get me to save you?” Leeanne asked.

She figured a lot of the animals here seemed pretty clever, almost like they could understand human speech.

This goat was ancient. If old folks could turn into sages, maybe old goats could, too.

Leeanne blinked in surprise as the old goat nodded and kept bleating at her.

Okay, so it’s not pretending. It’s actually asking for help,’ Leeanne thought to herself.

Leeanne cradled Snowy in her arms and asked the old goat, “Do you know this lamb? Do you know where its family is?”

The old goat looked a bit lost, its eyes rolling around nervously. It nodded, then shook its head, then nodded again.

Finally, it let out a long “baa,” as if it was confirming something.

Leeanne thought, ‘Guess it does know Snowy, huh?

‘Even if it doesn’t actually know Snowy, it’s probably still useful. This old goat is definitely smarter than the rest.

Leeanne put Snowy into her Pet Pouch, crouched beside the old goat, and pulled the thorn out of its hind leg

The old goat bleated twice, stretched its leg in pain, eyes shut tight, trembling all over

“Why isn’t it moving yet?‘ Leeanne thought, getting worried.

Finally, she took out a packet of healing salve and dabbed a bit onto the old goat’s injured leg

Before long, the old goat shook off the pain and stood up, looking lively agam

It bleated twice at Leeanne, then started walking along the creek, but in a different direction. Every couple of steps, it would

turn back and bleat at her again.

Leeanne caught on and said, “You want me to follow you?”

The old goat nodded.

Leeanne followed along, thinking, ‘This old goat definitely knows something!

After about half an hour, Leeanne and the old goat arrived at a gentle slope.

The stream here was pouring down, way faster than before.

There were clumps of short wild grass near the water, and now and then, one’d see some alfalfa.

Leeanne looked around and spotted a taller alfalfa plant not far off.

It wasn’t like the others.

566 vouchers

For one thing, it was over three feet tall. Most of the other alfalfa only came up to her knees. It really stood out.

And the flowers were nothing like the others. They were still purple, but the stamens were golden, with fine golden filaments trailing over the purple petals.

The topmost flower was big and beautiful, with golden light swirling inside.

“That’s beautiful, Leeanne thought.

She walked over.

[You have discovered Golden–Blossom Alfalfa, a second–tier spiritual herb and the favorite food of lambs.]

“Wait, this is actually a spiritual herb?‘ Leeanne thought, surprised.

She walked up to the Golden–Blossom Alfalfa and caught a whiff of its unique scent. It had a floral aroma, nothing like the common alfalfa.

Leeanne took the little lamb out of her pet bag and held it in her arms.

She figured since this was the lamb’s favorite food and also a spiritual herb, maybe a couple of bites would help it bounce back.

The old goat looked like it really knew its stuff, so she figured it must be right.

Maybe Snowy caught a whiff of the flower’s scent, because it suddenly opened its eyes.

When it saw the Golden–Blossom Alfalfa, its eyes lit up. “Master, I want to drink the nectar from the stamen of the Colden- Blossom Alfalfa. That’s Golden Core Nectar. It can boost my vitality and help me stay alert”

Leeanne moved closer to check, and sure enough, among the purple blooms, the stamen of the topinost flower was filled with a pool of orange liquid.

She plucked the flower and carefully poured the liquid into Snowy’s mouth

After drinking the Golden Core Nectar, Snowy perked up a lot. It wriggled a bit and said, “Master, put me down for a

moment.”

Leeanne followed the old goat for another ten minutes or so. Sure enough, another Golden–Blossom Alfalfa appeared

Here, the alfalfa varied in height, and there seemed to be several types. The ones about six feet away from the creek were super short, white the ones a bit further away were much taller.

They were even taller than Leeanne herself.

This is a Tier 2 spiritual herb, Shouldn’t a snake or something, be guarding it? That’s how it usually goes. This is way too ewy, she muttered to herself.

She glanced back at the old grat, picked up a stone, and tossed it at the Golden Stamen Alfalfa,

The plant swayed a couple of times, then settled back down,

Leeanne waited for a while, but there was still no movement. She tightened her grip on her whip and slowly made her way

Finally, she reached the Golden–Blossom Alfalfa and let out a quiet sigh of relief.

She reached out her hand…

Suddenly, a chill swept in from behind, thick with a strong, bloody stench.

‘Crap! 1eeanne thought, her heart skipping a beat.
