At night, Zhang Ze quietly walked out of Li Youyou's home. He stood in the open space in front of the community and summoned his followers.
"Pied Piper, come out."
brush!
A tall and thin man stood in front of Zhang Ze. He bowed and saluted: "Master."
"Ask your mouse friends to bring me some food, and remember not to synthesize garbage!" Zhang Ze ordered.
"As you command, Master." The Pied Piper began to play the flute, and the strange sound of the flute echoed in the silent night sky. Soon, rustling sounds came from around him, and pairs of small red eyes flashed in the darkness.
Soon, Zhang Ze and the Pied Piper were surrounded by countless rats. They lay quietly on the ground and surrendered to the Pied Piper.
"According to this adult's order, bring all the food you can find here. Don't synthesize garbage. Quick!"
"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"
The rats turned and quickly disappeared into the darkness.
Taking advantage of this time, Zhang Ze opened the team channel and chatted with other teammates.
[Rakshasa]: I’m really depressed, because the detector judged me as garbage with a combat value of 300, and I was looked down upon by others.
[Irritable Dragon King]: Isn’t it? How can it be that your combat value is only three hundred, and I still pay two thousand two!
[Little Princess Money]: Haha, I feel like I’m rubbish enough, but I didn’t expect your combat value to be lower than mine!
[Knowing Autumn Overnight]: Little princess, you are not rubbish. Auxiliary professions, especially recovery-type auxiliary professions, are very popular. Regardless of your low combat value, once your summoner knows your profession, he will definitely be very happy.
[Melancholy of the Sky]: So, combat value is only for combat professions and has no reference value for auxiliary professions?
[Knowing Autumn Overnight]: Yes, I read some guides that when summoners participate in the group stage in the early stages, they usually fight alone. Once you enter the regional competition, it's all about teamwork. Therefore, the role of auxiliary occupations is particularly important.
[Little Bird Yiren]: Sister, what is your combat value?
[Liu Yueying]: Three thousand six, it should be relatively high, because my summoner fainted immediately when he saw this value. It is said that he was too excited.
[Moonlight Bunny]: Sister Yueying’s combat value is so high! I am only one thousand one...
[Giant God]: I feel that our strength seems to be limited, because the effect of my skills is weaker than before. The system prompts that it is affected by the summoner level. Is this the same for you?
[Use the knife but not emotion]: The same is true for me. The power of my skills has weakened a lot. It seems that if I want to restore my original strength, I have to help my summoner level up.
[Yao Guang]: How to increase the summoner's level? Do you want to fight monsters and upgrade?
[Knowing Autumn Overnight]: No, there is only one way for a summoner to improve his level...
This situation also happened to Zhang Ze. He quickly took a look at what Yiye Zhiqiu said.
[Knowing Autumn Overnight]: Let the summoner participate in the competition. As long as the number of wins in the competition reaches the required number, his level will be improved.
Zhang Ze frowned. Li Youyou thought that his combat value was too low and it was impossible to take him to the competition. What should he do?
"We have to find a way to convince Li Youyou." Zhang Ze held his chin and thought about the countermeasures.
"Zhizhizhi..."
More than ten minutes later, the rat army returned with its full load. Hundreds of rats were seen working together to hold a large bamboo basket filled with various foods and delivered it to Zhang Ze.
Fresh fruits, tender green vegetables, tempting fresh meats, and fragrant bread and milk are much better than those synthetic foods, making people appetizing just by looking at them.
Zhang Ze reached out and lifted up the bamboo basket, took out a piece of bread from it and threw it to the mice. Then he took the Pied Piper back to the summoning space and turned back to Li Youyou's home.
Walking to the door, Zhang Ze found Li Youyou waiting for him.
"Mr. Zhang Ze, what did you do just now?"
Li Youyou asked worriedly: "You don't want to leave me, do you?"
Everyone was disappointed with Zhang Ze today. Li Youyou was worried that Zhang Ze would quietly leave because he was unhappy and never come back.
This situation is not uncommon. There are many summoners who have conflicts with their summoned bodies and eventually break up.
Some summoned bodies never appear again, and the summoner who loses his summoned body will become an ordinary person.
Li Tiehu is a living example.
Zhang Ze smiled and said: "How could I leave you? Look, I'm going to find food for you."
After that, he handed the bamboo basket to Li Youyou.
"Ah, this is..."
Li Youyou's eyes widened immediately, so many delicious things! There were even some foods that she had only seen photos and videos of, but had never eaten before, and she didn’t even know what they tasted like.
"You, where did you get it?" Li Youyou asked, her face flushed with excitement, holding the bamboo basket tightly in her arms.
Zhang Ze was very happy when he saw Li Youyou's intimacy level +2%. He showed a mysterious smile and said, "This is a secret."
Li Youyou still wanted to ask more, but the door behind her was opened, and Shulan stuck her head out: "Yuyou, what are you and Mr. Zhang Ze doing outside the house? Come back and sleep quickly, the night is already late."
"Mom, look!" Li Youyou handed the bamboo basket to Shulan and said excitedly: "Mr. Zhang Ze found these delicious things for us!"
Shulan was also shocked, but she was more rational and hurriedly pulled Li Youyou and Zhang Ze into the room, looked around, and then quickly closed the door.
"Ordinary people can't afford these things." Shulan looked at the food in the basket with a complicated expression and said to Zhang Ze: "Mr. Zhang Ze, your ability is... stealing things, right?"
Zhang Ze: "..."
It seems that it is impossible not to explain clearly.
Unfortunately, Zhang Ze's explanation did not convince Shulan and her daughter. Who could have imagined that a summoner could summon another summoner? It sounded outrageous.
"Oh, if I had known this, I wouldn't have taken the Pied Piper back to the summoning space." Zhang Ze was extremely distressed, "Now that the cooling time of the summoning spell has not yet expired, I can't call him out to testify for me."
Shulan was silent for a moment and warned: "Yuyou, please don't tell anyone about this matter, otherwise it will cause big trouble!"
Li Youyou nodded sensibly. If these foods were stolen from a noble's home, the other party would definitely send someone to investigate. Once discovered, their family might suffer.
"However, Mr. Zhang Ze did this for us." Shulan turned to Zhang Ze and sincerely thanked him: "Although I don't agree with you stealing things, you brought us rich food, so on behalf of the whole family, I thank you. , but don’t do it next time.”
Zhang Ze sighed inwardly, it was just some food, maybe those nobles didn't care at all, but Li Youyou's family was trembling and walking on thin ice. Common people like them were so honest, no wonder they were bullied.
However, this also made Zhang Ze more determined to help Li Youyou's family live a good life.
The rats must not continue to steal the food. If it was stolen, Shulan probably wouldn't want it, so Zhang Ze decided to find another way to help Li Youyou's family, that is, make more money.
The next morning.
"Participate in the competition?!" When Li Youyou heard Zhang Ze's suggestion, she immediately shook her little head like a rattle and said: "Mr. Zhang Ze, your combat value is too low and you can easily get injured or even die during the competition. I can't Let you go on an adventure!"
"Yuyou, I'm really strong..." Zhang Ze weakly emphasized, but Li Youyou completely ignored him and said resolutely: "No, Mr. Zhang Ze, don't worry, I have contacted you about a job before, and I can't support you at all." questionable!"
Zhang Ze was speechless. He summoned the great god, but he was wrapped up by a little girl... bah bah...
The road to making money from competitions was unavailable, so Zhang Ze had to think of other ways.
Li Youyou kept her word and went to work after breakfast. The place of work was a food store in a wealthy area.
The food store belongs to a noble, so it can sell some better food, such as eggs, bread and milk, but because of the high price, ordinary people are prohibitive.
Although the food in the food store is expensive, the salary is ridiculously low. According to Li Youyou, a month's salary can only buy a dozen kilograms of synthetic food, which can feed a family of three for about a week.
In this kind of job, Li Youyou needs to work from 9 am to 9 pm, and there are no rest days, so it’s 997!
"Damn, it's so dark!" Zhang Ze complained in his mind, "He can compete with the black-hearted capitalists in my world!"
Zhang Ze also went to work with Li Youyou. If he were killed, he would not let a teenage girl earn money to support herself.
The two of them pushed a food cart and hawked food all day long in the scorching summer heat, and finally got off work at nine o'clock in the evening.
Seeing Li Youyou rubbing his sore calf, Zhang Ze felt heartbroken. He was just a teenager and started making money to support his family, and he never complained about being tired. He was so sensible.
During dinner, Shulan brought all the food brought by Zhang Ze to the table, and Li Tiehu was dumbfounded.
"Vegetables, steak, eggs, milk..." He looked at Shulan in astonishment and asked, "Honey! How much did you spend on these foods?"
Shulan told her husband everything, and Li Tiehu looked at Zhang Ze with wonder in his eyes.
"Brother Zhang Ze can actually control mice?" He gave a thumbs up and exclaimed: "Awesome!"
Li Bin drank the milk happily, and Li Youyou also tasted the steak on the plate. This was the best food she had ever eaten since she was born.
Now, the whole family is full of gratitude to Zhang Ze. Invisibly, they have regarded Zhang Ze as their own family.
At night, the family prepared to go to bed, but the weather was too hot and 5-year-old Li Bin couldn't sleep at all. Shulan had to use a fan to cool her son down.
At this time, the cooldown time of Zhang Ze's [Summoning Technique] has expired and he can summon his followers.
Originally, Zhang Ze planned to summon the Pied Piper and demonstrate "mouse moving" to Li Youyou's family, proving that he was a genuine "summoner".
But seeing Li Youyou and Li Bin unable to sleep because of the heat, he temporarily changed his mind.
"Uncle Li, Aunt Shulan, Youyou, I'm going to show you my summoning ability now, so don't be afraid."
After greeting everyone in advance, Zhang Ze thought, and the snow girl appeared in front of everyone.
"Master." Snow Girl lowered her eyes slightly and saluted respectfully.
"Wow!" Shulan was immediately startled. She pointed at the Snow Girl and said, "Here, did you conjure this woman?"
Li Tiehu's eyes widened and he said in disbelief: "I'm so transformed into a living person... Is this magic or magic?"
"Mr. Zhang Ze, it turns out you are really a summoner?" Li Youyou was surprised and happy.
"This big sister is so pretty." Li Bin pointed at the snow girl with his chubby little finger and giggled.
Zhang Ze smiled and said: "I said that I am really a summoner, now do you believe it?"
Li Youyou's family nodded in unison, looked at the snow girl up and down, and exclaimed in admiration.
"Master, what do you need me to do?" Snow Girl asked in a low voice, not wanting to be treated like an object.
"Lower the temperature in this room, be careful not to make it too low, so that everyone can sleep comfortably." Zhang Ze ordered.
The snow girl nodded: "I obey."
After saying that, she opened her cherry mouth slightly, and a refreshing cool breeze blew out of her mouth.
In an instant, the temperature of the entire room dropped by seven or eight degrees, which was even better than the air conditioner!
"Haha, it's really cool!" Li Tiehu laughed heartily, feeling the comfortable cool breeze.
Li Bin also waved his little hands and shouted happily: "It's not hot anymore, it's not hot anymore!"
Li Youyou closed her eyes, with a look of enjoyment on her face, and sighed: "Mr. Zhang Ze's...snow girl sister is so amazing. She brought us back from the scorching summer to late autumn in one fell swoop. It's so cool."
Li Youyou's intimacy level +2%!
Shulan put down the fan and warned: "It's cool, it's cool. Don't be greedy for the cold. Cover me with quilts. If you catch a cold, you'll be in trouble!"
"Everyone, please rest. I will let the Snow Girl keep cooling everyone down." Zhang Ze said with a smile.
Soon, Li Youyou's family fell asleep.
Li Youyou didn't have a refrigerator at home, so Zhang Ze asked Xue Nu to make a large block of ice. He hollowed out the ice block and put the leftover food in it to refrigerate to prevent it from spoiling.
Looking at the milk in the ice cubes, Zhang Ze suddenly thought of a way to make money, and he decided to try it tomorrow.
After a night of silence, Li Youyou woke up in the early morning sunshine. She stretched and heard a clanking sound coming from the kitchen.
"Who is in the kitchen?" She was confused. She got out of bed and walked to the kitchen. She found that her parents and Zhang Ze were inside, and the three of them were gathered together, not knowing what they were doing.
"Okay!" Zhang Ze smiled slightly, scooped out two round "snowballs" from the box, put them on a plate, handed them to Li Tiehu and his wife, and said, "Try it, you two. How do you like it?"
"Is this... ice cream?" Li Tiehu observed the "snowball" on the plate at 360 degrees and wondered: "Is it really edible?"
Resources are scarce in their world, and there are no foods such as ice cream and ice cream, so it feels very novel.
Shulan had already dug out a small piece with a spoon and put it in her mouth, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
Cool and refreshing, full of milky flavor, it tastes really good!
