There was a small bucket hanging in the well, so the scarecrow pulled it up.
The bucket that came up was half-filled with a pale yellow liquid, emitting wisps of white mist, which was the source of the fragrance.
A small soup bowl was tied with a grass rope inside the bucket, so the scarecrow filled it with 'Granny's Soup' and took a sip.
[Grass!]
Scarecrow: Grass, delicious!
After tasting it, its eyes lit up.
Then it tilted its head back and drank it all in one go.
[Gulp gulp... Grass!]
After drinking, the scarecrow shouted with satisfaction, but gradually fell into a perplexing state.
Its expression gradually became dazed, and its shoulders and posture started to sag...
Thud!
With a slip of the hand, the soup bowl and bucket fell back into the well.
[Grass?]
This sound woke the scarecrow from its daze instantly.
It looked around, then tilted its head while staring at the trickling tributary of the Naihe River.
Wasn't Ben Cao on a mission?
Is this what they call the Naihe River?
When did Ben Cao end up here?
[Granny's Soup]
Effect: Unknown
Side effect: Causes temporary memory loss in the consumer
As the scarecrow was dazed, a waft of fragrance came to its nose.
[Grass!]
What is this water!
It seems kind of fragrant!
Looking down, it found a well next to it.
There was a wooden bucket in the well, and a bowl in the bucket...
It pulled up the wooden bucket, filled the soup bowl, and took a sip.
[Grass!]
Scarecrow: Grass, delicious!
[Gulp gulp... Grass!]
Thud!
[Grass?]
Where is Ben Cao?
Is this what they call the Naihe River?
What is this water!
It seems kind of fragrant!
[Grass!]
[Gulp gulp... Grass!]
[Grass?]
[Gulp gulp... Grass!]
[Grass?]
[Gulp gulp... Grass!]
[Grass?]

At the entrance of the dungeon, Wang Nuonuo looked at her watch.
"The scarecrow has been gone for about an hour, let's start."
She said so.
Looking at the watch, Li Pu showed an expression of envy.
Originally, after the arena competition, the school issued watches to all freshmen.
But he suspected that he was unlucky and got a defective one, as it broke the same night he tinkered with it.
"Let's step back a bit; I want Little White to start."
Wang Nuonuo called everyone to step back.
Soon, there would definitely be nether-type magical beasts appearing, so keeping the summoned beasts around Bai Youyou would suffice.
[Zizi!]
As soon as she finished speaking, the thorny rat took the initiative to step out, standing vigilant 10 meters away from Bai Youyou.
"Senior, what are you doing?"
But Wu Guinan was puzzled when Chang Shoushang also walked out.
"Hehehe, it's about time for you to witness my combat prowess."
Chang Shoushang just smiled, not directly answering.
"Junior, you...?"
Wang Nuonuo also expressed doubt.
Because she saw Li Pu also step out, forming a triangular defense with the thorny rat and Chang Shoushang to protect Bai Youyou.
Summoners engaging in frontal combat is a very dangerous thing, even if the magical beasts here wouldn't be too high-level.
In her view, sending the scarecrow out as a scout was already considered mission accomplished by Li Pu.
There was no need to risk himself; honestly, even if her reward could cover the medical bill, she couldn't bear to see the junior hurt.
"Senior, don't worry."
"He is the top of our year."
At this point, Wu Guinan stepped out to explain.
"Ah? Really?"
Wang Nuonuo was taken aback upon hearing this, not expecting that her charming limp-legged junior was actually the top in the freshmen group?
"No way!"
But the next second, she realized.
"What does being top mean."
"Now that his summoned beast isn't by his side, it's really dangerous."
New students just entering haven't mastered summoner skills yet, not even qualified to maneuver around magical beasts.
As for the awakened summoner talent, that's even more hopeless.
The vast majority of summoner talents are support or even useless, impossible to use in battle.
"Senior, you might have misunderstood."
"I meant top in fights."
Wu Guinan explained again.
But one thing he didn't mention needed elaboration, and that was the fight top in the entire year, including summoned beasts.
So far, only Wu Guinan knew this, as he was the sole eyewitness.
Last night, because the scarecrow and the rolling turtle were too noisy in the dorm, Li Pu dragged them out for a 1V2+0.5 fight.
He directly beat the scarecrow, the rolling turtle, and the innocent little treant into rolling messes, not daring to act up again.
"What's the point of fights between classmates?"
"Rest assured, Senior, I know my limits."
Wang Nuonuo wanted to say more to stop it but was interrupted by Li Pu.
You have to know that the one constantly getting stronger isn't just the scarecrow.
Especially with the scarecrow's fighting power getting higher, he's receiving more and more feedback.
Plus, with the scarecrow's inherent ability [Gratitude], there's an additional feedback boost.
Yesterday, under the excuse of sorting out the dorm's order, he conducted a wave of self-tests on his strength.
The conclusion was that a typical (?) LV10 magical beast + a truly typical LV2 magical beast + a magically evading beast that cried all throughout, combined, might not even be his match.
Of course, there's a bit of discrepancy in combat power between summoned beasts and magical beasts.
Well-trained summoned beasts are definitely stronger than magical beasts of the same level and rebirth.
In short, faced with the current situation, Li Pu felt it was sufficient.
"Then... fine."
Seeing Li Pu's determined look, Wang Nuonuo bashfully avoided eye contact.
Somehow, this junior indeed gave a feeling of reliability.
"Senior, really no need."
"You're worrying for nothing."
Wu Guinan laughed.
"And you? What's your role?"
The ridiculed Wang Nuonuo seemed a bit displeased.
"Eh..."
This directly hit Wu Guinan's sore spot, taking a moment before he could squeeze out a reply: "But I'm not charging a fee!"
Completely unconvincing, he felt guilty about it himself.
"Hehe."
Wang Nuonuo let out a cold laugh, no longer paying attention to him.
Under her command, Bai Youyou officially began the rebirth.
[I want to die!]
With a mournful shout, Bai Youyou's entire white cloth fell to the ground and arched up, as if something was hidden under it.
Soon after, a faint glow started to emanate from it.
This glow shone bright, illuminating the surroundings.
The ambiance created by the glow clashed with the atmosphere of the Little Yama Realm.
"Rebirth has begun!"
"Next, the entire process will attract an endless stream of magical beasts gathering here!"
"Everyone must be careful!"
Wang Nuonuo loudly cautioned the group of Guardians.
Merely 3 seconds later, someone cried out in pain.
Chang Shoushang: "Ah ah ah! Oh no! I'm wounded!"
Wu Guinan: "..."
Li Pu: "..."
