Light Spring Murmur

Chapter 140: Overall Strength Soars

Adding points is fun for a while, and it's even more fun to keep adding points.

Shi Yu was immediately immersed in the joy of adding points.

Several days had passed since Shi Yu returned to Pingcheng from the Ancient Capital.

During these days, Shi Yu stayed at home.

There was no other way; adding points with Ginseng Baby was too much fun.

Whether it was Sweet Aroma or the various nutrients produced by Ginseng Baby, they were more effective than the tonics he bought, and they put less burden on his body.

He could get stronger and his pets could get stronger, giving him a sense of accomplishment. If he didn't take advantage of this, would he still be Shi Yu?

However, Shi Yu didn't forget his business.

After calculating the time, he made an appointment with Senior Lu, Director Lin, President Feng, and Captain He, all Master-level Beast Tamers, to explore the Ice Dragon Ruins together in a week.

Originally, Shi Yu wanted to invite more people.

However, Lu Qingyi brought Shi Yu back to his senses with two sentences.

"A ruin of the Ice Dragon Ruins' level… doesn't require such a large group…"

"Moreover, based on my rich archaeological experience, the more people explore a ruin, the easier it is to fail."

Shi Yu: "…"

Alright, alright!

The big shot in the archaeological world had spoken, so Shi Yu chose to believe her.

After that, he continued to add points.



About ten days after Shi Yu returned to Pingcheng.

Shi Yu had added points to all three pets.

During this process, Shi Yu felt that his physical fitness had reached another limit.

Because the feedback effect of the skill index was gradually decreasing.

After testing his grip strength, he silently realized that his current physical fitness might not be worse than those advanced Beast Tamers whose Beast Taming Space had reached Level Four.

This change made Shi Yu feel lost for a long time.

Was he really a humanoid pet?

To be more specific, he could now fight some Awakening-level pets of extraordinary races with his bare hands.

If the opponent was an Awakening Level 10 adult Iron-eating Beast, Shi Yu would win 100% if he fought it without using skills.

This was just the upper limit of his physical fitness when his Beast Taming Space was at Level Two.

If his Beast Taming Space reached Level Six, Seven, or Eight, and his physical fitness reached the upper limit of this level, Shi Yu couldn't imagine whether he would really become a humanoid beast, a super earthling… under the feedback of the skill index.

The improvement in his physical fitness also brought a benefit.

That was, Shi Yu's meditation efficiency became particularly high.

Originally, he estimated that it might take several months to raise the level of his Beast Taming Space to Level Three…

But now, with the blessing of super physical fitness, he felt that with the help of the Void Spirit Stone, this speed could be greatly improved.

But these were not the most important.

The most important thing was that in these ten days, under Shi Yu's crazy point additions, the strength of each of the three pets had undergone tremendous changes.

Shi Yu sat in his study, leaning against the old man's chair, and looked at the pet data book he recorded in Chinese characters.

[Name]: Ginseng Baby

[Growth Level]: Extraordinary

[Skills]: Sweet Aroma (Perfect), High-Speed Healing (Perfect), Nutrients (Proficient), Earth Chain (Transcendence), Source of Life (Entry), Multiplication (Proficient), Absolute Sleep (Proficient)

In the end, Shi Yu added Earth Chain to Transcendence level and Absolute Sleep to Proficient level, and Multiplication to Proficient level.

In this way, Earth Chain + Source of Life + Multiplication + Absolute Sleep, combined with the ruins space, and the fact that Shi Yu also needed to rest, could almost balance out the consumption of Shi Yu and the others' point additions, and they only needed to absorb natural power. There was no need to buy extra energy crystals to help Ginseng Baby recover its stamina.

Of course, as Ginseng Baby's Beast Tamer, even if he could really freeload completely by borrowing natural power, Shi Yu would never exploit Ginseng Baby like this.

Shi Yu didn't give Ginseng Baby less of the energy crystals and nutritional products it should have.

Even if it didn't need these things to replenish energy, it could still taste them. Shi Yu adhered to the idea of raising pets richly. Whatever Eleven and Worm had, Ginseng Baby had it all, even though it hadn't been officially contracted yet. Shi Yu had treated the three pets completely equally.

Ginseng Baby still had a lot of entertainment time during the day.

But even so, adding points didn't fall behind.

Ginseng Baby could now completely supply the consumption of Shi Yu adding points to skills below the super level.

It was just that super-level skills… still seemed a long way off.

In addition to Multiplication and Absolute Sleep, Shi Yu also taught Ginseng Baby the High-Speed Healing skill.

Due to the Slow Healing and Source of Life, Ginseng Baby's High-Speed Healing was comparable to Perfect level as soon as it learned it.

Compared to Slow Healing, Perfect-level High-Speed Healing had a much better healing effect, and most importantly, Ginseng Baby now had the ability to heal others.

Perfect-level High-Speed Healing also gave Ginseng Baby the ability to form a combo skill with this move. With the Nutrients skill, Ginseng Baby could not only create high-level tonics, but also create high-level wound medicine. It could be considered to have completely transformed into a support nanny, and its team positioning… was also a nanny.

After all, Ginseng Baby should currently have the highest level of proficiency in the High-Speed Healing skill in the team.

Although its dream was to become a combatant… but in the past ten days, its combat power hadn't increased much. The Proficient-level Multiplication had completely different effects when given to Eleven and Ginseng Baby…

Shi Yu planned to find a wood-type attack skill for it later. He could also teach it Deterrence when the time came.

However, although Ginseng Baby's combat power hadn't increased much due to its race, Eleven and Worm, who had witnessed Ginseng Baby and Shi Yu's limits in the past ten days, had completely taken off.

[Name]: Green Silkworm

[Growth Level]: Extraordinary

[Skills]: Silk Thread (Art of the Skill), Absolute Sleep (Proficient), Illusory Image (Perfect), Deterrence (Skilled), Super Vision (Proficient), High-Speed Healing (Skilled), Space Shackles (Proficient), Instant Transmission (Proficient), Void Concealment (Proficient)

On Worm's side, Shi Yu mainly added Illusory Image to Perfect level.

Perfect-level Illusory Image focuses on the word "real".

It could make the illusion created more realistic. If Worm created an Ice Dragon illusion now, even Eleven's Perfect-level Super Vision couldn't see through the illusion, and it could clearly feel the Ice Dragon's active vitality. The illusion had reached the point of being lifelike.

Of course, this also meant that the quality of the illusion had been raised to a higher level, and it could exert more power.

Shi Yu had also taught Worm all three space-type skills.

At this time, Illusory Image could easily break through the max-level Silk Thread, but Space Shackles was still a little short. Shi Yu planned to add this advanced skill to at least Perfect level before evolving.

But right now, the most noteworthy thing was… it wasn't so easy for Eleven to defeat Worm anymore. It would have to spend a lot of effort and use all its trump cards. Even so, there was a risk of failure.

[Name]: Iron-eating Beast

[Growth Level]: Extraordinary

[Skills]: Hardening (Art of the Skill), Thunder Palm (Transcendence), High-Speed Healing (Proficient), Super Vision (Perfect), Deterrence (Proficient), Absolute Sleep (Proficient), Multiplication (Proficient)

This was mainly because Eleven had relatively few skills to improve, and it only had time to improve the proficiency of Hardening and Thunder Palm.

Before, Worm was envious of Eleven's pile of skills, but now Eleven was envious of Worm's pile of skills.

After Thunder Palm reached the Transcendence level, Eleven had a stronger ability to control lightning. It could even transform Thunder Palm into Wave Palm, condense lightning to form an energy body, or transform Thunder Palm into various forms.

This was a small surprise that gave Eleven more long-range attack methods.

However, after teaching Eleven's Thunder Palm to the Transcendence level, Shi Yu discovered a big problem.

That was, when Thunder Palm was taught to the Transcendence level, the skill index showed "Cannot be Taught".

At the same time, a delete symbol appeared on the Thunder Palm page, indicating that Shi Yu could delete Thunder Palm at any time.

This made Shi Yu a little silent, because the skill index seemed to only be able to add the pet's racial skills to the Art of the Skill level.

As for non-racial skills, the Transcendence level was the maximum level.

Shi Yu's mood was complicated.

What was gratifying was that the conditions for deleting certain skills had been greatly reduced, and he could copy more rare skills.

What was not gratifying was that some non-racial skills that were very useful could not be added to the highest level, and he could only rely on himself to practice them next.

So right now, although he had copied Earth Chain, Hardening and Thunder Palm had become skills that could be deleted at any time, freeing up two new skill slots at any time.

As for max-level Hardening.

Compared to Transcendence-level Hardening, max-level Hardening had one more property in addition to increased hardness.

Growth.

The reason why the Hardening skill was rated as low-level was because no matter what the Iron-eating Beast's food was, the properties of the hardening material were always the same. Apart from becoming a little harder and having good resistance to physical attacks, it had no characteristics and little growth.

But after reaching the max level, Hardening became like Transcendence-level Silk Thread. It could directly change the properties of the hardening material according to the food it ate.

For example, if Eleven ate a large amount of electric ore, the properties of its hardening material would be biased towards magnetite. In the hardened state, its control over lightning-type skills and lightning-type talent would be greatly improved.

If it ate a large amount of light-heavy rock next, it could freely control its weight in the hardened state, either light as a feather or as heavy as ten thousand tons.

The growth of max-level Hardening was also the reason why Eleven was a little difficult to fight Worm now.

Because it hadn't grown up yet.

In addition, Eleven hadn't coordinated the ultimate combo skill of max-level Hardening and Transcendence-level Thunder Palm, the Railgun.

This also led to Worm, which had three more space-type skills and one high-level skill at the Perfect level, having a 40-60 chance of winning against Eleven. If Worm's race level was higher and it had more physical strength, and it wasn't a fragile Green Silkworm, Eleven might lose.

Shi Yu stared at the data card. Ginseng Baby was still missing a wood-type attack skill. He had to choose a suitable one. Worm's skills were almost enough. After maxing them out, it could wait for evolution to awaken new racial skills. Adding points still had to add racial skills, after all, the upper limit was high. As for Eleven, it had a little less attack skills, but there was no need to rush, after all, it and Worm could arrange for evolution not long after school started.

"Why do I feel that if the level of the Beast Taming Space improves smoothly, and with Eleven and Worm evolving, I can sweep away seniors like the cat-eared girl senior when I'm a freshman?" Shi Yu's expression was strange.

That's a small pattern. The combat department of Ancient Capital University isn't very strong. Let's set a small goal and sweep away the combat department of Imperial Capital University before my sophomore year.

At that time, I'll ask the principal for money. If the salary is in place, I'll beat up the Legendary!

This Ginseng Baby is really my lucky star.

"Hello!!!"

"Your package!!!"

While Shi Yu was fantasizing, a familiar voice came from outside.

Shi Yu quickly ran over. When he passed by the courtyard, Ginseng Baby, who was taking care of the flowers and plants in the villa, poked its head out and followed curiously.

"We meet again."

"It's been a long time since I delivered goods to you."

Outside the training villa.

Shi Yu's old acquaintance, the delivery guy who rode the Soaring Wing to deliver goods everywhere, looked at Shi Yu with a smile after delivering a pile of metal mineral resources.

He was a little puzzled, why didn't Shi Yu buy tonics this time…

Then, he saw Ginseng Baby by Shi Yu's trouser leg…

Delivery guy: "…"

"Yes, long time no see." Shi Yu smiled and put away the goods, while also wondering, didn't the other party know his new identity? It seemed that the title of genius archaeologist wasn't enough…

The two completed another tacit transaction.

This time, Shi Yu bought level-four lightning-type metal mineral resources, Thunder Stone.

It cost almost 5 million, not much, just a box.

After all, he only had tens of millions on hand now.

This also made Shi Yu a little depressed. Although he saved money on tonics for adding points, other resources were also very expensive.

The reason for buying this was to test the so-called growth of max-level Hardening.

"Yi~~" At this time, Ginseng Baby looked at the big box in front of it with curiosity.

What is this?

Shi Yu smiled and opened the box, which was filled with a pile of sealed dark blue electric stones.

"This is food prepared for Eleven."

Ginseng Baby: !!!

"Yi!!" In Ginseng Baby's opinion, Eleven and Worm were so strange.

One ate iron stones, which was okay, one ate plants, which was hateful.

It was different. Ginseng Baby liked to eat soil and drink various nutritional drinks the most.

Ginseng Baby felt that it was very normal.

"Let's go, let's go back."

Shi Yu smiled, picked up the big box filled with metal minerals with one hand, and walked back with Ginseng Baby.

The property of this Thunder Stone was stability.

The stone had super high control over the lightning energy inside.

Many lightning-type pets used this resource to enhance their control over lightning energy.

Shi Yu locked onto Thunder Stone at a glance when choosing resources.

After all, Eleven wasn't a lightning-type pet. Even if Thunder Palm had reached the Transcendence level and Hardening had reached the max level, as expected, it was still a little short of completing the railgun that Shi Yu imagined.

It couldn't coordinate the relationship between the hardening material and the lightning magnetic field at all.

To put it bluntly, Eleven had strong enough control over the metal element, but it was still a little short on the lightning element.

So, Shi Yu thought of Thunder Stone and wanted to see if max-level Hardening could absorb the properties of Thunder Stone.

If it could, Eleven would almost have a second attribute, lightning, in the hardened state.

At that time, whether it was the Lightning Armor ultimate skill or the Railgun ultimate skill, there would be a qualitative change.

In short, first use Thunder Stone to transition… when I have money in the future, I'll buy more advanced metal resources with more powerful properties to change the properties of the hardening material!



Boom!!!!

Boom!!

Ruins space.

When Shi Yu and Ginseng Baby arrived, the giantized Eleven and the Ice Dragon Worm were engaged in a crazy ultimate move confrontation.

"Cough."

Shi Yu coughed and immediately stopped Eleven and Worm.

At this time, the giantized Eleven saw the big box that Shi Yu was carrying and its eyes lit up.

"Awu!!!"

It quickly shrank and ran over happily. Worm also returned to its original state and crawled over.

At this time, Worm was crawling with its head held high.

It felt that the gap between it and the leader was gradually narrowing and it was very excited.

"Ying?"

After Eleven ran over, it pointed to the Thunder Stone in the box and asked if it was for it.

Shi Yu smiled and nodded. The next moment, he saw Eleven rubbing its hands and picking up a piece to put in its mouth.

Great.

Finally, it could try the properties of max-level Hardening.

"This is a level-four resource… in theory, it's for Commander-level creatures, be careful."

Shi Yu reminded it.

"Awu awu." Eleven nodded quickly, but it was okay, because in the ruins space, and with Absolute Sleep, its absorption of nutrients was very good, and there would be no indigestion.

"Crack crack." After biting off a few pieces, Eleven ate a piece.

Then, its eyes lit up.

Delicious!

It simply ate it in a full-body hardened state.

Crunch.

Eleven ate very deliciously, after all, it had just finished a big battle and it was time to replenish its nutrients.

While eating, an accident occurred.

A dark blue lightning bolt suddenly flowed through Eleven's hardened body, but Eleven didn't feel anything unusual and continued eating.

"Yi…" "Ji…" Ginseng Baby and Worm looked at the Thunder Stone. Was this thing… really that delicious?

After eating about three pieces, Eleven gradually felt that the properties of its hardening material were slowly changing. It slightly raised its head and looked at Shi Yu.

Shi Yu also nodded and looked at Worm.

"Let's try it."

"Worm, use Space Shackles to seal Eleven."

"Ji!!"

Worm didn't know why, but it nodded.

The next moment, a room-sized three-dimensional space barrier appeared around Eleven.

Proficient-level Space Shackles!

This was higher than the strength of the Void Crystal Butterfly's Space Shackles. It was quite troublesome for Eleven to break it during the battle.

Worm had used this move to disgust Eleven many times with the Ice Dragon illusion.

As for now…

Looking at the transparent space wall in front of it, the one-meter-tall Eleven looked serious and slowly raised its chubby arm, aiming its palm at the front.

Then, a black sphere condensed outside its palm.

At this time, Worm and Ginseng Baby were still very calm.

But the next moment.

Tear!

An astonishing electric arc appeared on Eleven's entire hardened arm, wrapping around it again and again, making a violent sound!

Then, Eleven's entire arm shone, and a powerful electric current suddenly filled around the black sphere floating in front of its palm. This change made Worm and Ginseng Baby's expressions change slightly.

What they didn't know was… the magnetic field quickly formed by the Thunder property and the high-voltage current of Thunder Palm was giving the hardened sphere an acceleration! This acceleration was even greater than the power of multiplied Eleven!

Boom!!!

Finally, the Railgun that Eleven had tried many times but couldn't complete was finally launched for the first time.

"Awu!!!" When firing, Eleven shouted excitedly.

Boom!!!

At the same time, it was as if a thunderbolt exploded in the hearts of Worm and Ginseng Baby.

Worm and Ginseng Baby's eyes widened, and they only saw a blue light flashing past. In an instant, there was a "crack" sound, and the space seemed to shatter. The Space Shackles created by Worm instantly collapsed rapidly from one point to the whole with an electric light!!!

And the next moment, the electric light was still accelerating. In the blink of an eye, the light fell into the distance, and a terrifying loud noise suddenly came with the disappearing light. The next moment, a strong wind came with this loud noise, completely blowing away the space fragments!

"Ji!!!!"

Worm: ヾ(;゚;Д;゚;)ノ゙

Seeing the Space Shackles collapse so weakly, Worm's eyes widened immediately. What the hell.

What happened!

Ginseng Baby was also dumbfounded and didn't know what was going on. It was almost blown away by the aftermath.

At this time, Eleven stood in place and returned to normal. Its black and white fur fluttered quickly with the strong wind. It was first confused, then looked at its palm in surprise.

"Awu wu wu wu!!!"

Success!!

It also saw Shi Yu's smile.

The second attack ultimate skill!! Railgun!!

"Awu! (Worm, let's fight!)" Eleven looked at Worm full of fighting spirit.

Worm: ???

Ji!!!! Are you sure I won't die if that thing hits me?!!
