Chapter 195: Ancient Objects and Machines
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Shi Yu directly entered the Mechanical Tree Club.
The club was an open facility that provided various services, including accepting missions, accepting event endors.e.m.e.nts, and subst.i.tuting compet.i.tions. Anyone could come.
When Shi Yu entered, the mechanical tree in the hall swept its gaze over.
At the far counter, a woman in casual clothes, about thirty years old, also looked away from the computer.
At this moment, Shi Yu was still wearing a black and red battle suit. There was even a red sword-shaped pendant around his neck. He looked impressive and handsome.
That pendant was actually Little Chi Tong.
As a spirit body, Little Chi Tong’s form was not so fixed, just like a ghost.
Even without mastering multiplication, shrinking and deforming was not difficult.
It could even pa.s.s through walls.
Of course, this kind of shrinking definitely didn’t have the skill effect of accelerating the recovery of physical fitness. It was purely convenient.
Little Chi Tong still liked to stick to Shi Yu like this. He was much more reliable and intimate than Eleven, Buggy, and Baby Ginseng.
This made Shi Yu realize that choosing a pet indeed had to start from the choosing the egg!
After entering, Shi Yu looked at the mechanical tree.
He smiled brightly and walked towards the mechanical tree step by step.
Shi Yu was just about to greet the mechanical tree through telepathy, but the next moment, the mechanical tree’s expression suddenly changed.
The mechanical mutant tree had always been close to the door in the hall.
As the signature pet of this club, it stood here and worked as a hostess, security guard, cleaner, air freshener, gardener, and many other professions.
At that moment, when it saw Shi Yu and sensed the aura of the little sword spirit hanging on Shi Yu’s neck, it suddenly glared at him and activated its security attributes.
The huge tree in mechanical armor trembled slightly and roared.
“There!!!! (Not good, the challenger is here!!!)” Its voice was strong and entered Shi Yu’s ears.
Shi Yu stopped in his tracks and was stunned on the spot.
Shi Yu: “?”
What the f*ck?
He came in with such a kind and sunny smile. How was he a challenger?
There was something wrong with this tree’s intelligence.
The side effects of the mutant skill?
His baby ginseng was pretty smart. It couldn’t become stupid after mutating.
“From the club next door?”
At the same time, at the counter, the woman who was playing with the computer and wearing a casual shirt stopped what she was doing and walked over. She stood beside the mechanical tree and observed Shi Yu.
“The club next door?” Shi Yu knew that she had misunderstood.
“You’ve got the wrong person.”
“Isn’t that so?” The woman was stunned and looked at the mechanical tree.
The mechanical tree widened its big eyes that were like light bulbs and pointed at the little sword spirit hanging on Shi Yu’s neck with a vine.
Judging from the aura, it was.
At this moment, Little Chi Tong woke up from its sleep. Who was so loud!
Meng Qing looked at the trembling little sword spirit and sighed .”…”
“Then I should have recognized the wrong person.” She looked at Shi Yu’s age and indeed didn’t look like the person next door.
“Since you say it’s not, then you’re not. Perhaps the mechanical tree made a mistake.”
“Sorry, I didn’t receive you well.”
The mechanical tree scratched its head. Mistaken?
“It’s fine,” Shi Yu said casually. “But what’s the club next door…”
Meng Qing said, “The other club is called the Antique Store Club. The pets they contract are basically antique artifact spirits preserved from ancient times. Here, it’s similar to your little sword spirit. Perhaps because of this, you were misunderstood by the mechanical tree.”
“The relationship between our two clubs has always been bad. It’s common to challenge each other. Sorry for embarra.s.sing you.”
“I see. It’s alright, it’s a small matter.” Shi Yu smiled and didn’t mind.
However, he added in his heart…
This industry was really messy.
No… It seemed to be chaotic everywhere. Schools competed with schools, cities competed with cities, financial groups competed with financial groups. Then, it was quite normal for clubs to not like each other.
“So what do you want? Registration?”
“By the way, I’m the boss of this club, Meng Qing.”
The owner of the Mechanical Tree Club, Meng Qing, guessed when she saw that Shi Yu was young.
Shi Yu looked to be around 20 years old. He didn’t look like he was here to discuss business. Then, was he most likely here to register for the club’s newbie selection?
But… he had contracted a sword spirit. He should go to the group of conservative guys next door.
The Mechanical Tree Club, which mainly used modern Mechanics, was a wrong option for him…
“Registration? No.” Shi Yu shook his head.
Speaking of which, this big sister was the boss of this club?
So she was a rich woman!
Shi Yu thought that it was a hall girl who received guests. His eyesight was poor…
He said, “h.e.l.lo, Boss Meng. I’m a feeder. I’ve been researching mutation evolution recently. I heard that the Mechanical Tree Club has a stable channel to nurture alternate trees, so I wanted to visit.”
Shi Yu looked at the mechanical tree beside him and felt helpless.
Replicating mutants was actually relatively troublesome.
He had experimented before.
This kind of almost pa.s.sive physique skill could only be replicated after it took effect with his own eyes.
In other words, he had to personally see the mutated tree use mutations to evolve before he could successfully touch and replicate it.
Now, if he directly touched this strange tree, he couldn’t replicate anything.
When he was bored, he had tried it on other pets such as gem cats and even baby ginseng.
Therefore, if he wanted to replicate this pa.s.sive physique skill, he had to find an opportunity.
“Feeder?” Meng Qing looked at Shi Yu suspiciously.
Really?
She didn’t believe it.
Shi Yu was too young. At this age, even if he was a Feeder, he would only be a trainee. There weren’t many professions.
“Do you have a certificate? If you’re a professional feeder, I can show you around,” Meng Qing said.
“Uh.” Shi Yu was stunned. He didn’t have this thing.
The only certificate he had regarding the Feeder was the graduation certificate of the number one high school in Icefield City…
This thing could only be used as a certificate for a trainee Feeder.
“The Feeder is my secondary position. Is my university student pa.s.s alright?” Shi Yu asked quietly.
“You’re from Divine Capital University?” Meng Qing showed an interested expression.
“No, I’m from Ancient Capital University.” Shi Yu showed his student ID to Boss Meng.
“Ancient Capital?”
“Shi Yu… Ancient Capital University’s archeology Department.”
Staring at the student ID, Meng Qing was stunned. It wasn’t from Divine Capital University. The ancient capital was so far away, so why were the students there coming to Divine Capital?
“Ancient Capital is not bad either. So it’s a university student from a top-level inst.i.tute.” Meng Qing nodded.
In this world, the Beast Tamers of the nine major universities were still very well represented.
This planet’s people entered society after graduating from high school. High school was equivalent to a university on Earth. There were various specializations, and a few years in advance, students chose their future direction.
On the other hand, the Beast Tamer University only had nine inst.i.tutions, which was the nine major universities. The admission conditions were very high, and those who could enter the university were all elites.
For example, when an archeology student from Ancient Capital University heard this ident.i.ty, he could subconsciously think that this student was one of the best in a professional a.s.sessment in a first-level city. He was a super genius. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for him to enter the trump card specialization of Ancient Capital University.
Generally speaking, such a person had a high chance of becoming a master-level Beast Tamer in the future.
As a person who had been in society for many years, Meng Qing was still willing to communicate more with such a genius with potential.
Meng Qing said, “But you’re from the archeology Department. Why did you choose to study the Feeding Department? Is university life so relaxed?”
She had never gone to university because it was meaningless. Her family still had a club to inherit, so she entered society early to train.
“An outstanding Beast Tamer has to know a little about everything.” These were Shi Yu’s sincere words.
“That’s true.” Meng Qing nodded.
Because Shi Yu was a university student, she chatted with him patiently.
What if Shi Yu was interested in joining the club after graduation?
Each financial group supported dozens of clubs, and each club was very internal.
The professional league and master league between the Beast Tamers in the clubs were even more intense than the national compet.i.tion between university students.
The National League, the professional league of the clubs, and the Master League were about the largest scale compet.i.tions in the country.
As for the internal military exercises organized by the Beast Tamer Corps, these were usually not publicized.
In short, universities cultivated comprehensive talents. In the future, they had to move to various fields with strong freedom.
The club cultivated celebrity Beast Tamers, which was part of the business operation and national spiritual needs. It was the key to attract most ordinary people to become Beast Tamers and understand Beast Tamers. It was also a main industry to develop the country’s economy.
And the army naturally cultivated battle-type Beast Tamers.
In Meng Qing’s eyes, a genius from a famous school like Shi Yu was a resource.
After all, after graduating from university, it was still up to the Beast Tamer to decide what vocation to choose.
“Well…” At this moment, Meng Qing agreed to Shi Yu’s request to visit the Mechanical Tree Club.
However, after looking at Shi Yu for a while, she suddenly felt that something was wrong.
“Wait, cla.s.smate, why do you look so familiar?”
The boss of this club looked at Shi Yu’s face and fell into deep thought.
Had she seen this face somewhere?
“Uh, maybe I have a more common face?”
Shi Yu felt guilty. Good lord, could it be that the other party had also heard of the Iron-eating Beast Knight?
They were several cities away.
Moreover, he had only been on the trending list for half a day. Most importantly, the Beast Tamer of the club shouldn’t be so free to pay attention to these things, right?
“No, I’ve definitely seen it somewhere before.” The young female boss began to think carefully.
She usually liked to eat melons and watch dramas. Apart from supervising the training of the Beast Tamer signed by the club, she had nothing else to do. She was usually very free, but she still came into contact with more news.
“You…” The female boss stared at Shi Yu.
“Ancient Capital, Ancient Capital University, you’re the top scholar of that Ancient Capital City vocation a.s.sessment this year??”
A moment later, she thought of something and widened her eyes.
To be honest, she didn’t even remember the names of the professional a.s.sessment top scorers in Divine Capital, Imperial Capital, and even Demon Capital. This was because this group of people didn’t have much to do with the Mechanical Tree Club. They would definitely directly bid for the nine major universities or be poached by the financial groups.
However, only the top scorer of the vocation a.s.sessment in the ancient capital had made too much news a few months ago. It gave people a deeper impression!
A new star in the archeology world, a genius archeologist who discovered the evolution of the iron-eating beast, and an iron-eating beast knight… When these few topics were put together, it was even more memorable than a solo a.s.sessment top scorer.
Shi Yu :”…”
She really did know.
“It’s me…” He didn’t expect that after a few months, someone would really remember him. However, this also indirectly meant that his publicity effect was pretty good?
Senior Panda, pay for the sponsorship!
“It’s really you…” Meng Qing was stunned and suddenly didn’t know what to say.
“What do you want to see? I can show you.”
Even if Shi Yu had nothing to do with the Mechanical Tree Club in the future, she had to get to know such a genius with super potential.
After working hard in society for so long, she understood the importance of connections.
“Well…”
“Excuse me, are there any mutant trees waiting to evolve in the club now?”
“I want to observe the evolution of the mutated tree,” Shi Yu asked.
When Shi Yu finished speaking, Meng Qing was stunned.
This was not a simple tour!
Although it wasn’t a big deal or private matter… It had to be said that Shi Yu came at a very coincidental time.
“Is there a problem? I can pay a certain amount of the observation fee,” Shi Yu said.
“No need.” Meng Qing’s expression relaxed. “There are two newbies’ mutant trees that are going to undergo modification mutations in two days. I can show you around then.”
“Thank you very much,” Shi Yu thanked.
“You’re welcome!” The female boss patted Shi Yu’s shoulder and smiled. “I knew it couldn’t be a common face. Student Shi Yu, you’re so handsome. I only took a look at the picture on the news and completely remembered it.”
Shi Yu smiled in embarra.s.sment.
She had gone so far. Her little mouth was like honey.
Boss Meng smiled and said, “The modified machinery can only be delivered from the headquarters in two days. Why don’t I take you around the club today?”
“Alright.” Shi Yu nodded and said, “I’m still very curious about the operation of the club.”
Boss Meng smiled and said, “Alright, let me introduce you. Although our Mechanical Tree Club isn’t qualified to partic.i.p.ate in the Master League, we’re also a popular team in the professional league. Overall, our strength is still very good.”
Meng Qing and Shi Yu introduced themselves. “I’ll take you to the training area of the official members first.”
…
The Mechanical Tree Club was very large. After all, it had a complete business chain. The various facilities were much better than Master Lin Hongnian’s dojo.
Meng Qing brought Shi Yu to the training ground first.
At the moment, there were six Beast Tamers and six mechanical mutant trees practicing in the training ground.
From the current training mission, it seemed to be resistance training.
The mechanical modified mutant tree still retained the characteristics of most tree-type life forms that were inconvenient to move. It was like a fixed cannon battery, and it had a high requirement for standing still to take a beating.
“They’re official members of the club. Every one of them is a high-level Beast Tamer.” Boss Meng and Shi Yu stood on the high platform and looked down.
The six official members she mentioned were all between 25 and 30 years old. There were four men and two women. They were very young and looked pretty.
This was very normal. After all, the club was to create a celebrity Beast Tamer. They had to take on various endors.e.m.e.nts and sponsored partnerships. They also used their youth as a selling point.
“Are the main members of the club all mechanical trees?” Shi Yu asked.
“Yes.” Boss Meng nodded.
It was indeed as she had said. The Mechanical Tree Club, which had a stable cultivation route of the mutant tree and used the Mechanical Tree of the high-level commander race as the tactical core, had pretty good compet.i.tiveness in professional compet.i.tions where there were no master-level Beast Tamers or monarch-level pets.
“Student Shi Yu, are you interested in the mutant tree and the mechanical pets?” Meng Qing asked. “If you come to our side to sign the contract, we can give you a mutant tree and a modification machine with high commander potential for free.”
“Sorry to disturb you,” Shi Yu said.
Although she was sweet-tongued, it was impossible for her to trick him into working.
Shi Yu smiled helplessly. “At the moment, school is more important.”
He belonged to an official organization, and his future development path couldn’t be matched with the financial groups and club systems.
However, it wasn’t like there was no connection between the financial groups and the officials. After all, many factions in the a.s.sociation were also supported by the financial groups.
And the founder of the Century Financial Group, which specialized in technological products behind the mechanical tree, was said to be the disciple of the legendary Beast Tamer who founded the Mechanic Department of Dong Huang.
At the moment, this legendary mechanical giant was very likely the only legendary Beast Tamer still alive in Dong Huang. After all, according to normal age length, he wouldn’t die.
However, in the past decade, it was also true that there had been no news of this person. Many of the subsequent top-notch mechanical lives were also developed by new talents in the mechanical field.
Could it be that this person has also disappeared like Lin Feng the legend? Or is he in seclusion to challenge the Mythical stage? Shi Yu muttered.
The power of a guardian-level forbidden weapon exceeded nuclear weapons. As for a Mythical-level technological weapon, a Planet-level one?
At Shi Yu’s level, he couldn’t come into contact with this at all.
“I understand. Learning is more important.” Boss Meng smiled. She was just asking casually. She didn’t expect Shi Yu to really come.
With the status of the Iron-eating Beast’s evolution planner, directly cooperating with the various large financial groups or the official a.s.sociations was much more promising than joining a small club.
A moment later, the training below seemed to have ended. Those club members discovered their boss standing on it. One of them couldn’t help but shout, “Boss, do you have any instructions?”
“Eh, is there a newbie?” A female teammate looked at Shi Yu beside Meng Qing curiously.
“This isn’t a newbie.” Meng Qing smiled. The clubs usually recruited Beast Tamers who failed their vocation a.s.sessments or didn’t enter ideal schools and weren’t willing to start over again for a year. Even the best clubs couldn’t recruit a top scholar like Shi Yu.
“Let me introduce you. This is the top scholar of this year’s Ancient Capital vocation a.s.sessment.”
“Discoverer of the iron-eating beast’s evolution form, archeologist of the Ancient Capital University’s archeology Department, Shi Yu.”
With that said, she walked down with Shi Yu.
As soon as Meng Qing finished speaking, there was silence below. Five people had shocked and confused expressions. Another male member suddenly thought of something and said, “That Shi Yu?”
“Who is it?” the female teammate beside him asked.
“This… how should I put it? You just have to know that it’s a very famous top scorer in the vocation a.s.sessment.” The person beside her didn’t know how to explain…
A moment later, Meng Qing and Shi Yu came down. The few of them b.u.mped into each other. Boss Meng continued to introduce.
“Student Shi Yu came to our place to take a look at the Mechanical mutant tree. I’ll take him around.”
“Oh, oh, welcome.”
“h.e.l.lo, Student Shi Yu.” The six team members greeted when they heard their boss’s introduction.
But soon, their attention was attracted by the Sword Spirit pendant on Shi Yu’s neck.
“Sword spirit??” The male member who recognized Shi Yu looked at the pendant and said in surprise, “Your third pet contracted a sword spirit…”
“Oh right, my name is Lei Liang. I’ve seen your… video?”
Little Chi Tong tilted its sword head. Video, what video?
“Sort of.” Shi Yu smiled and said, “But it’s not the third one. It’s the fourth one.”
When Shi Yu finished speaking, everyone was stunned again.
Wasn’t Shi Yu the top scorer of the a.s.sessment this year? He was already… a high-level Beast Tamer so quickly??
Meng Qing was also stunned. This… was the main standard of their club in their first year?
Monster!
“Wasn’t it only beginner level four months ago…” Lei Liang was at a loss.
“You don’t understand the world of geniuses,” a female team member beside him said.
“I heard that this kind of artifact spirit pet is more popular in the ancient capital. Is that true?” She then asked curiously.
Shi Yu: “It’s not that popular, but there are indeed more Spirit Mediums in the ancient capital.”
“So, isn’t Mechanics not very popular in the ancient capital?” she continued to ask.
“No, it’s also a lot.”
When Boss Meng saw that everyone was talking about the sword spirit, she smiled and explained how the mechanical tree had mistaken Shi Yu as the challenger of the club next door.
The club members couldn’t help but smile in embarra.s.sment.
Shi Yu heard it again and couldn’t help but look at Little Chi Tong. He asked curiously, “I feel that everyone is very concerned about this type of pet. Is it because of the club next door?”
Boss Meng smiled and said, “Perhaps there’s such a reason. We’re old enemies with our neighbor. It can still be traced back to my father’s generation. He and the owner of the club next door were originally good friends. They both liked antiques and sword-type pets and were good friends who pursued them similarly. But later, because the Mechanic cla.s.s rose, my father went to change to the Mechanic cla.s.s. The two of them also had a conflict and went their separate ways.”
“Ancient vs modern?” Shi Yu asked. This question didn’t seem to be limited to these two clubs.
After the modern era, antiques and swords could no longer produce spirits. There was only a batch of weapons preserved from ancient times, or the spirit bodies of those weapons.
Compared to this, the Mechanic cla.s.s was a new life that had replaced these antiques.
In the modern era, very few Beast Tamers were willing to contract a sword, a bow, and armor like the ancient Beast Tamers. From the cost-effective ratio, they were completely destroyed by the Mechanics with greater potential now.
The former was rare, expensive, and had low potential. The latter was a new attribute, relatively popular, and had a high growth rate.
In the eyes of most people, an ancient sword spirit was much weaker than a mechanical light sword.
It could be said that the rise of the Mechanic cla.s.s indirectly accelerated the decline of the ancient sword-type pets. The two had never been very friendly.
“That seems to be the case.” Meng Qing nodded.
“Speaking of which, are archeologists all ancient fighters?”
Lei Liang saw that Shi Yu had contracted a sword spirit. In addition to his ident.i.ty as an archeologist, he subconsciously guessed.
The Ancient Battle Sect was like the ancient Beast Tamers. Beast Tamers who contracted armor, swords, and used pets like zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting to fight. Generally speaking, they were known as opposing modern Mechanics. Now, only a small number of inheritors had fallen. The main reason was that such life forms no longer existed in the natural world.
“Cut it out.” Meng Qing glared at Lei Liang. She suddenly felt that if they continued chatting like this, everyone would start arguing about this topic of new vs old.
“Probably not.” Shi Yu didn’t mind much. He said, “Actually, it’s the same in my opinion.”
“There’s no difference in strength between pets. The strength that can be displayed is completely dependent on his Beast Tamer.” Be it animals, elements, undead, antique swords, or mechanical lives, under the same race level, in Shi Yu’s opinion, their potential was about the same. They wouldn’t be inferior even if he added all the points.
“Maybe I’ll choose the Mechanic cla.s.s next.”
Shi Yu’s idea was to have one pet of all types.
Animals, plants, undead, machines, elements… It wasn’t a collection hobby. It was purely because Shi Yu felt that their respective abilities were irreplaceable.
For example, right now, Shi Yu basically didn’t have the ability to fight in the sea. On Blue Planet, the ocean also occupied most of the territory. The ocean was a forbidden area for humans from ancient times to now. Even those legendary Beast Tamers couldn’t conquer the ocean.
Many powerful sea beasts lived in the deep sea, and they had incomparably rich resources. There were also many underwater ruins. The Dragon Emperor had once said that if the sea creatures attacked the land one day, no human country could stop them.
It was also because the resources on land were not suitable for sea beasts that the two had always been harmonious.
However, if Shi Yu wanted to explore the ocean, he had to contract a water-type pet, preferably an elemental-type pet.
“Mi! ~” Little Chi Tong b.u.mped into Shi Yu. Although that was the case, couldn’t he at least praise it!
It was all the same, he said?
It had also understood mechanical lives before. It was just a hubigge robot, after all. It would kill one with one strike!
“Be good ~” Shi Yu comforted Little Chi Tong. You can’t cut it. Don’t you like electric ice boxes too? That’s the prototype of a mechanical life form!
Little Chi Tong: “!!”
Little Chi Tong was stunned. So that was the case. That Mechanic cla.s.s was pretty good.
“For example, my Chi Tong is very strong,” Shi Yu added with a smile.
Chi Tong… was this sword spirit’s name?
Everyone looked at the little sword spirit again.
“That makes sense, but if the next one is a Mechanic, are you really not considering the Mechanical mutant tree?” Boss Meng still couldn’t forget about it. “If you have any needs, you can look for me. I still know many Mechanical Masters from the financial groups.”
The Century Financial Group mainly focused on technological products, and there were many Mechanics inside. Currently, the mechanical modification equipment of the Mechanical Tree Club was provided by the Century Financial Group.
“Alright, I won’t be polite then if I need anything.” Shi Yu smiled.
“Come, come, come, take a look at our club’s Mechanical Mutant Tree.” Meng Qing thought of Shi Yu’s business here. She looked at the six mechanical trees standing on the scene and introduced them.
Shi Yu looked over.
“They were undergoing resistance training just now, right?”
“Yeah.” Meng Qing nodded.
“That was a strengthening skill just now, right?” Shi Yu asked.
[Race Skill]: Mutant, Tri-Colored Bullet, Giant Arm, Lock, Strengthening, Giant Tree Cannon
Recalling the skill of the Mechanical mutant tree, Shi Yu pondered slightly.
Hardening was a mid-level skill that contained both earth and wood power.
The effect was to harden the wood-element skill or plant life, fuse the power of the earth and wood-element, and make the plant as hard as the Earth Stone, turning it into a hardening plant.
It was considered a defensive skill, but it was both offensive and defensive. It was similar to hardening.
To be honest, this skill was a racial skill evolved by very few plants in harsh environments.
Shi Yu had always wanted to find a defensive skill for Baby Ginseng. The most common and conventional skill was the wood shield skill, but because it was too conventional, Shi Yu was not too satisfied.
He wanted skills that were rare and more functional. This way, it would be easier to form profundities with other skills. It wouldn’t be eliminated so quickly.
For example, the wooden shield would be completely replaced by plant control in the future, but strengthening was a skill that could be used with plant control.
Just thinking about it, if the future ginseng baby summoning a huge wooden shield to protect itself… If it was just an ordinary plant wooden shield, the opponent would directly burn it with a ball of flames of the same level. But if it was a hardened wooden shield, it would contain some earth-element nature. It wasn’t that countered then, increasing the power of the plant greatly.
Such a skill was relatively difficult to master, but Shi Yu didn’t care.
Apart from the mutation, Shi Yu pondered for a moment after seeing the strengthening skill and was a little tempted. He had never seen this skill in the ancient big plant garden.
Now that Baby Ginseng had mastered the full-level “Dao Proficiency” Earth Chain, it used Earth Power very well and was very compatible with this skill. After learning it, even if Shi Yu didn’t add points, Baby Ginseng would probably be able to master it quickly or even perfect it in a short period of time.
If it learned this, it would really be invincible.
“Yes,” the few of them answered.
“Can I come into contact and take a look?” Shi Yu asked.
Meng Qing smiled and said, “Of course, do what you want. They’re very docile.”
Shi Yu came to the side of a mechanical tree and touched its hardening bark. “It’s been cultivated very well. One of my pets has also mastered hardening, but it’s still a little inferior to their hardening at the moment.”
[Recording success]
Everyone smiled. They had specially cultivated secret manuals for the various skills of the mechanical tree. Their whole family relied on the mechanical tree to earn money, so naturally, they had some strengths.
The hardening mastered by Shi Yu’s pet might only be at expert level at the moment, but these mechanical trees had already been trained to perfect level!
“It’s not very intuitive to rely on the touch. You can use your pet to attack it. There’s no need to be polite. Let them be trained.” Lei Liang smiled and said, “You can let that little sword spirit try. Their defense is still very strong.”
The mechanical trees:???
Human language?
When Shi Yu heard that, he was slightly stunned. Then, he smiled and said, “There’s no need.”
Little Chi Tong was only at the transcendent level. It was meaningless. Ordinary attacks were probably useless. If he used his full strength… Shi Yu was afraid that the other party wouldn’t be able to withstand it.
No matter how strong it was, it was still the same as hardening. It mainly defended matter, but Little Chi Tong mainly attacked the soul.
Even if there was a major level difference, Shi Yu was afraid that Little Chi Tong would hurt the hearts of these big guys with less than 40,000 energy points.
As a high-level overlord race, Little Chi Tong’s talent was very high. For example, although its Soul Slash, Sun Flame, and even the Interlocking Sword Skill were only at entry level, it could easily be combined and used. Flame, soul attack… Blood Suppression Mechanical Tree.
“I mainly want to observe, record, and study the difference before and after the mutation of the mutant tree,” Shi Yu said.
“No problem.” Meng Qing chuckled. “I’ll definitely let you see it in two days.”
Next, the Mechanical Tree Club warmly welcomed Shi Yu, the genius archeologist. However, Shi Yu didn’t stay long. After all, he still had to train. Seeing that there was no chance to replicate the mutation today, Shi Yu and Boss Meng exchanged numbers and quickly took the initiative to leave.
…
After leaving the Mechanical Tree Club, Shi Yu let out a long sigh.
He thought for a moment. He didn’t seem to have signed up for the b.u.t.terfly Meeting!
The b.u.t.terfly Meeting was held in the Divine Feather Mountain Range of the Divine Capital. It was in the wilderness, and not everyone could go.
The b.u.t.terfly Valley was separated from the city by a maze-like forest. At least professional Beast Tamers could pa.s.s normally. If trainee Beast Tamers wanted to enter, they had to find bodyguards.
In addition, the area of the b.u.t.terfly Transformation Valley was limited. The officials had to confirm whether the Beast Tamers who went there were sincere in helping their pets evolve or just going to watch the show. The latter didn’t have a strong background, so it probably wasn’t easy to go in and watch.
Generally speaking, every Beast Tamer who went to the Divine Feather Mountain Range and the b.u.t.terfly Meeting had to register in advance and record their ident.i.ties.
This was also to prevent some lawless people from entering the mountain range. After all, in that chaotic place, most of the coc.o.o.ns might not be by the owner’s side. The coc.o.o.ns didn’t have any battle power, so if it wasn’t strictly controlled, it was very likely that the poachers or hunters would have an opportunity to take advantage of it. Even more so, if it angered the guardian, it would be even more serious.
“I’ll register first. Don’t wait until the last day to line up.” Shi Yu thought for a moment and quickly made a decision.
The process of registering and partic.i.p.ating in the b.u.t.terfly Meeting was also very simple. He just had to take out his identification doc.u.ments to register and show the officials the coc.o.o.n he had contracted.
When Shi Yu arrived at the Hundred b.u.t.terfly Town that led to the Divine Feather Mountain Range in the Divine Capital, he realized that there were only a few hundred Beast Tamers queuing here to register. It was possible that a large portion of them had already registered in advance, or it was possible that they had yet to reach the Divine Capital.
The b.u.t.terfly Transformation Valley could accommodate 100,000 people and 100,000 coc.o.o.ns. Although the threshold of the b.u.t.terfly Transformation a.s.sembly wasn’t high and there was a chance to see the guardian, there didn’t seem to be that many Beast Tamers partic.i.p.ating in the b.u.t.terfly Transformation a.s.sembly.
This was because most people didn’t have the Green Silkworm evolution plan. Even if a Green Silkworm coc.o.o.n that normally evolved into a Wind Crystal b.u.t.terfly obtained benefits in the b.u.t.terfly Transformation Conference, it would at most be comparable to a middle-level transcendent race. It didn’t mean much. In the end, the b.u.t.terfly Transformation Conference was still a stage prepared for those Beast Tamers who had supreme-grade evolution plans.
For example, those Beast Tamers who had mastered the high-level commander race evolution plan might be able to use the b.u.t.terfly Meeting to let their pet race’s potential be comparable to monarchs or even monarch races.
Therefore, most of the evolution positions might still be used by the officials themselves. They could cultivate a certain type of b.u.t.terfly through the b.u.t.terfly G.o.d.
“It’s my turn.” A moment later, Shi Yu moved.
This was a place where ten rooms in the hall lined up to register. Shi Yu didn’t wait long. About 40 minutes later, it was his turn.
When Shi Yu entered the hall, the person in charge of registering was a young lady. This time, the other party looked more like a service staff, unlike Boss Meng just now. As a boss, he actually sat in the hall and played with the computer to receive guests…
“h.e.l.lo, please give me your Beast Tamer license.” The registration lady smiled sweetly and said to Shi Yu.
“Alright.” Shi Yu nodded and handed his intermediate Beast Tamer license to the other party.
Speaking of which, shouldn’t he find Master Qu Jie to apply for a high-level license when he returned?
Would he still be the examiner?
Master Qu Jie’s sealing talent was pretty good…
“Please verify it.”
“Name, Shi Yu, age, 19 years, level, intermediate-level Beast Tamer, household register, Ping Cheng District of Icefield City, a.s.sessment venue, Ancient Capital Beast Tamer a.s.sociation.” The registration lady routinely registered.
In theory, this age and level were very strong. But in the past few days, the registered young lady had seen too many geniuses from the nine major universities who came to partic.i.p.ate in the b.u.t.terfly Meeting and was already numb.
“No problem.” Shi Yu nodded.
“Next, please summon the pets you want to partic.i.p.ate in the b.u.t.terfly Meeting. They must be in a contracted state, and they can only be the coc.o.o.ns of the Green Silkworm.” The registration lady said again, “We also have to help the pet’s physical examination register. I’ll also check the health state of the coc.o.o.n for you. It’s free ~ Professional Beast Tamer benefits ~”
The Green Silkworm wasn’t the only insect that could turn into a coc.o.o.n. However, the Green Silkworm was the most common insect-type in the world. At the same time, the b.u.t.terfly G.o.d was also a Green Silkworm in the beginning, so the b.u.t.terfly Meeting could only be attended by the Green Silkworm coc.o.o.n.
Shi Yu raised his head slightly and looked at the registration lady.
It was not a problem to summon the worm, but the other party wouldn’t deny it after seeing the coc.o.o.n, right?
After all, his Green Silkworm coc.o.o.n was still a little different from ordinary Green Silkworm coc.o.o.ns.
“Hm?” The registration lady glanced at Shi Yu.
“Well…” Shi Yu summoned it. A spatial ripple appeared in front of him, and a white and green flash array appeared on the summoning platform. In the next second, a coc.o.o.n wrapped in white silk appeared in front of the register lady.
High-level Beast Tamer?
The registration lady was stunned. She realized that Shi Yu’s summoning level didn’t match the information… Did he not go for the a.s.sessment yet?
If it was a high-level Beast Tamer, 19 years old would be a little scary.
She was in charge of registering so many people, and few were as monstrous as Shi Yu.
“The color is very poor…” Seeing the Green Silkworm coc.o.o.n, the registration lady was about to be polite, but her gaze was suddenly stunned.
That was because there was a small hole in this white coc.o.o.n. The big eyes in the hole were blinking and observing her.
To be precise, it was two eyes, but at the moment, Buggy was sideways. A moment later, Buggy turned and looked at the register lady with both big eyes.
“Holy s.h.i.t.” The registration lady was stunned.
Her mouth opened slightly. This, what the h.e.l.l was this!!!
At this moment, she had almost forgotten all the service etiquette.
Beep… Beep… Beep…
At the same time, the energy value of the current worm was displayed under the summoning platform in charge of the physical examination.
This was a device similar to a machine that tested energy values in the vocation a.s.sessment.
Energy Points: 388,69
At this moment, when she saw the number, the registration lady’s heart trembled again. She couldn’t help but widen her eyes and take a step back.
What??
Was she seeing things?!!
Shouldn’t the coc.o.o.ns of the Green Silkworm be at level ten of awakening, with an energy value no more than 100??
You…
308,000 was already close to the standard of a monarch species… commander rank!
No, this wasn’t the coc.o.o.n of a green worm at all, right? The registration lady couldn’t help but look at Shi Yu!
“This… This isn’t a Green Silkworm coc.o.o.n at all!”
Buggy: “?”
Then who was it? Couldn’t she be more polite?
“This is the Green Silkworm coc.o.o.n,” Shi Yu said. “It’s genuine.”
The register lady shook her head crazily. She didn’t believe it.
She pointed at the wide-eyed coc.o.o.n and the more than 30,000 energy points below. You call this a Green Silkworm coc.o.o.n?
At the b.u.t.terfly Meeting, other people’s coc.o.o.ns would sleep and wait for the b.u.t.terfly G.o.ddess to bless them and turn them into b.u.t.terflies. Only your coc.o.o.n would open its eyes wide and wander around. Could you call this a coc.o.o.n of a Green Silkworm?
Shi Yu smiled and said helplessly, “It’s true. My Green Silkworm is relatively special, so it’s also relatively special after it transformed into a coc.o.o.n. It’s considered a new form. I’ve already written half of the thesis… I can publish it after it replenishes the other half after it transforms into a b.u.t.terfly.”
Miss Registration: “?”
She couldn’t understand.
This coc.o.o.n didn’t look scientific at all.
A Green Silkworm coc.o.o.n that was close to the potential of a monarch?
What the h.e.l.l?
“I… I have to inform our in-charge. I can’t make the decision,” she said.
She didn’t know if she should let Shi Yu and Buggy, this pair of anomalies, inside.
She still didn’t believe that this was the Green Silkworm coc.o.o.n.
“Alright.” If Shi Yu didn’t remember wrongly, the person in charge of the b.u.t.terfly Meeting should be a legendary Beast Tamer.
A legend that specialized in insect-type b.u.t.terfly-type creatures.
At that time, the entire b.u.t.terfly Meeting would be presided over by her. She would also be in charge of communicating with the b.u.t.terfly G.o.d in the a.s.sociation.
At the same time, in a garden in Hundred b.u.t.terfly Town, a beautiful woman in her forties received a call.
“What’s wrong? Is there a problem with the registration of the b.u.t.terfly Meeting?”
“Legend Hua, yes, when it was registered, a Beast Tamer with a very strange green worm coc.o.o.n appeared…”
“How strange is it?” The legendary Beast Tamer surnamed Hua smiled and said, “Different color?”
As a legendary Beast Tamer proficient in the cultivation of b.u.t.terfly-type creatures, she had seen many strange and abnormal pets and was already used to it.
But even so, she still made the registration office pay attention to special partic.i.p.ants in presiding over the b.u.t.terfly Meeting.
“No, it’s that green worm coc.o.o.n. It has a pair of eyes and isn’t sleeping.”
Legend Hua was stunned.
“Eyes?”
“Moreover, its energy level has reached 38869. Its growth level is commander rank.”
Legend Hua:???
“Its Beast Tamer said that this is the evolution of the Green Silkworm. That Beast Tamer thinks that it’s very normal, but I’ve never seen it before, nor have I heard of it.. I’m not sure either. Do you… want to come over…?”
