"You said… you want to buy it??"

With Shi Yu's appearance, the young man An Chang's expression froze, then turned to instant joy.

"Really???" He suddenly became very excited.

This sum of money was not a small amount.

Not only was An Chang stunned, but the other bystanders were also completely dumbfounded. Someone actually wants to buy this thing?

With this money, wouldn't it be better to buy a house or a luxury car… What kind of family is this?

"Yes, can I transfer the money?"

Shi Yu had already taken out his phone, but the young man opposite him quickly waved his hand and said, "Um, can we go to the bank to do the transaction?"

"I don't have a phone."

Shi Yu: "…"

What a pain.

"…Then let's go." Shi Yu said after a moment of silence.

Well, he couldn't exactly have Buggy materialize a box of cash for him, could he?

That would be too bad.

"Okay."

Seeing that Shi Yu really wanted to buy it, An Chang was overjoyed and immediately got up to pack up his stall. However, he seemed to have forgotten that his legs were almost numb from sitting. When he got up, he fell directly, his body lunging forward.

An Chang: Σ(°△°|||)︴

"…" Shi Yu.

"No big deal." He quickly supported himself up with his hands and patted his clothes.

A moment later, under the bewildered gazes of the passersby, the stall-setting young man left with Shi Yu. For a moment, the passersby couldn't tell whether the young man selling the goods was a scammer, or Shi Yu was the scammer.

…

Shi Yu and An Chang left Antique Street.

On their way to Wuling Bank on foot, An Chang cautiously observed Shi Yu from behind.

After the initial joy, he suddenly became a little uneasy, worried that Shi Yu might be a scammer.

Mainly because Shi Yu was too young. Could he really take out five million so casually?

"Do you know the origin of that stone mirror?"

Shi Yu walked ahead and asked without looking back.

"I don't know… But according to my family, it's a very precious treasure, but the method of using it… was lost in the war." He asked Shi Yu, "Do you know what it is?"

"I know, and I don't know." Shi Yu said.

An Chang: ???

"It is indeed a treasure, but whether it can be used, and how to use it, is still uncertain."

"Then will you still buy it?" He asked nervously.

Right now, he just wanted to know if the stone mirror could be sold.

"Buy." Shi Yu said. Five million wasn't much. Buggy and Ginseng Baby could easily earn it.

What really made Shi Yu feel like he might lose out was that he knew the purpose of this stone mirror in advance.

If he bought it and it couldn't be used, was he just losing five million? No! He was losing a divine artifact! Rounding it up, he was losing billions.

As an old capitalist, not earning is losing.

"Thank you." An Chang said quickly.

"May I ask, what illness does your mother have?"

After chatting with the other party for a few words, Shi Yu sensed the fluctuations in the other party's mind, and combined with the value of this stone mirror, he already believed what was written on the other party's board.

"Loss of vitality…" An Chang said after a moment of silence.

"Is your mother a Beast Tamer?"

Shi Yu stopped and looked at him.

That's right, it would be strange if there wasn't a Beast Tamer in the family with such an heirloom.

Loss of vitality is a very common ailment among Beast Tamers. It's not exactly an illness, but rather an injury.

This phenomenon usually occurs after a Beast Tamer's multiple pets die.

If the Beast Tamer is in good condition when the pet dies, then there's basically no problem.

But if the Beast Tamer is in extremely poor condition at that time, the death of the pet and the contract will backfire on the Beast Tamer, causing the Beast Tamer to lose vitality.

Similarly, this phenomenon also applies in reverse. If the Beast Tamer dies, the pet will also be affected to some extent.

Generally speaking, many Beast Tamers would rather die directly than enter a state of vitality loss. This injury is a bottomless pit, and ordinary healing skills can't cure it at all. To cure it, you can only smash a pile of vitality-replenishing drugs to try to improve and repair the Beast Tamer's physique. In short, the chance of recovery is very small and very expensive.

"Yes…"

An Chang didn't say much, just nodded simply.

Seeing this, Shi Yu didn't ask any further, because they had already arrived at the bank.

This An Chang was quite careful and meticulous. Knowing that 5 million was no small amount, he had even prepared a contract in advance. Shi Yu casually glanced at it and completed the transaction with him inside the bank.

"Thank you."

After the transaction was completed, An Chang was very excited and bowed deeply to Shi Yu. This money was a godsend for his family.

"It's just a normal transaction." Shi Yu said casually, holding the stone mirror at this time.

"By the way, here, this is for you." Shi Yu took out a white fruit the size of a grape from his "pocket" and handed it to the other party.

"Um…"

An Chang looked blankly at the unfamiliar fruit.

"Maybe it can treat vitality loss. I don't know if it will work. You can have a doctor look at it. If it doesn't work, just give it to your pet." Shi Yu said.

Those were snacks for Eleven and Buggy. Shi Yu had just pulled out a max-level nutrient fruit from the ruins space. It contained vitality and could enhance the pet's life level and evolution potential. Theoretically, it could also be used on people. It was a super high-quality life drug, and its effects couldn't be simply judged by energy level.

"This…" An Chang was stunned on the spot.

"Go quickly."

"Okay." An Chang bowed to Shi Yu again, eager to leave. Shi Yu nodded, and the other party left directly.

The contract had Shi Yu's name and phone number on it. He planned to thank Shi Yu later. The hospital was urging him for payment too much. Now that he finally had the money, he had to pay it as soon as possible so that he could get the follow-up medication.

As soon as An Chang left the bank, Shi Yu left the bank with the stone mirror, planning to give it a try.

A moment later, he came to a nearby park and sat down next to a flower bed.

Shi Yu fiddled with the stone mirror, lost in thought.

So, how do you use it?

Shi Yu meditated for a while, and then took out an energy crystal to feed to the stone mirror, but there was no response.

He even tried to activate the legendary power contained in the ruins space to use the stone mirror.

However, it was still useless.

"Can you hear me?"

"How do you use it?"

Shi Yu communicated with the stone mirror using telepathy.

Logically speaking, if he could communicate once, as long as the stone mirror wasn't cracked, there was hope for a second communication.

However, after Shi Yu called out for a while, the stone mirror still didn't respond.

This couldn't help but darken Shi Yu's expression.

Did he have to chat for days and nights like when he "moved the spirit relic" before the stone mirror could be touched?

If that was the case, that would be good, but if he chatted for several months and there was still no response, he would lose more than just dozens of billions, he would also lose time costs.

Shi Yu calculated everything clearly.

"Think carefully…"

Sitting on the stone platform, Shi Yu looked at the stone mirror in his hand, looking at the flowers and green caterpillars in the flower bed, and began to think.

Suddenly, he was slightly stunned, and inexplicably took the stone mirror and aimed it at a crawling green caterpillar.

Following the voice and tone he heard when listening to the sound of history, he said:

"Change!"

"Change for me!"

Whoosh!

In the next moment, the old stone mirror shone with a faint light, directly illuminating the caterpillar.

Shi Yu and the caterpillar were both stunned.

Shi Yu found that his physical strength was being drawn by the stone mirror, roughly the amount needed to teach a low-level skill with the Skill Encyclopedia.

On the other side, after being illuminated, the caterpillar stopped crawling. Under the illumination of the light, it directly awakened and evolved from a caterpillar that was more ordinary than ordinary into a transcendent creature, a Azure Cotton Bug.

Seeing this scene, Shi Yu's mouth widened slightly.

Holy crap???

So simple?

Like awakening talent… Is the energy source the Beast Tamer's stamina?

But… does it need voice control to activate??

What kind of genius instrument craftsman made this mirror.

Watching the caterpillar in front of him complete its awakening and become a transcendent life of Awakening Level 1, Shi Yu and it stared at each other with wide eyes.

"Ji!!" The Azure Cotton Bug was shocked.

"Change!"

"Change for me!"

Shi Yu raised the stone mirror again and aimed it at the Azure Cotton Bug.

The light shone, and the Azure Cotton Bug was startled.

But this time, the Azure Cotton Bug did not change in any way, and the stone mirror did not draw any more stamina from Shi Yu.

Sure enough, the stone mirror, like the awakening talent, can only awaken and evolve things that are not transcendent life into transcendent life, but cannot make them transform again.

"Ji!!" After being played with by Shi Yu one after another, the Azure Cotton Bug was frightened and quickly burrowed into the flowers, disappearing without a trace, leaving Shi Yu in silence.

This thing…

Shi Yu stared at the stone mirror. He felt that this thing should have been made by a big shot with awakening talent during the Totem Era.

Like General Mu Huiyin, extracting his Beast Taming power, the creator of the stone mirror was at least a legendary figure.

"This round, no loss."

Soon, Shi Yu was sure that he had made a bloody profit.

Although this thing can't directly improve strength, its value is ridiculously high.

If that An Chang knew its use, and sold it to an association or consortium, they would spend hundreds of billions to buy it. Not to mention treating vitality loss, the hospital would even send him to the hospital.

"I'll go see him later."

A stable prop for creating monarch race pet cubs.

With this, he could wholesale high-race pets like Beast Tamers with awakening talent.

Of course, it's not without cost.

Activation will consume the Beast Tamer's stamina. It is estimated that like awakening talent, the greater the potential of the awakening object, the greater the consumption.

It took Shi Yu some stamina to help a caterpillar evolve into a Azure Cotton Bug. If he were to awaken a mountain, Shi Yu estimated that the stamina consumed would not be small.

In addition, not everything can be evolved through awakening talent. Awakening evolution also requires certain qualifications.

Historical records also show that Beast Tamers with awakening talent have tried to evolve boogers into transcendent life, and to evolve feces into poop beasts to fight enemies and disgust them, but they all ended in failure.

These were very vulgar. There are also records of Beast Tamers with awakening talent trying to evolve meteorites falling from the sky into life forms, to evolve high-level resources into life forms, and to evolve fossils of ferocious beasts from ancient times into transcendent life to revive ancient creatures, but they all failed.

Perhaps it's not that these things don't have the qualifications to evolve, but that the ability of awakening talent is limited and can only evolve a specific batch of beasts, plants, and elements.

It is precisely because of this limitation of awakening talent that awakening talent only became a top ten powerful talent after someone discovered that it could stably awaken mechanical types in modern times.

"I wonder if this Awakening Mirror is effective on fossils of ancient creatures…"

"What about the illusory shadow with fossils of ancient creatures as the core energy? Can it reverse the illusion and awaken into life… If it can, is this considered cloning?"

"Wait, don't be too happy too early. The Stone Mirror is, after all, an inanimate object. Unlike awakening talent, it can grow with the Beast Tamer. What if it has a limit and is just a toy that can only awaken transcendent races?" Shi Yu calmed down.

At that time, don't even mention fossil life, even the overlord race is gone.

"However, even if it can only awaken transcendent races, it's not useless."

At this time, learning from history, Shi Yu suddenly felt that the best use of this thing might be in the mechanical field.

The biggest feature of the mechanical type is that it can evolve through combination and can be strengthened by upgrading the parts of the mechanical beast without having to do it in one step, so it will not consume too much of the Beast Tamer's stamina at one time.

It is not impossible to upgrade and assemble one monarch race machine from ten thousand transcendent race parts.

To date, there are no records of Beast Tamers with awakening talent directly awakening an overlord race pet, but the mechanical type can awaken different parts through awakening talent and upgrade and assemble an overlord race machine. This is the most awesome thing about the mechanical type.

Shi Yu couldn't sit still all of a sudden, and a bunch of thoughts filled his head.

"Using ancient fossils and illusory shadows as the core energy, and equipping it with a mechanical life shell, a mechanical Tyrannosaurus Rex? Mechanical type, ancient type? Is this considered opening up a new mechanical beast faction?"

"Now, do I even have the capital to join the Fourth Bureau?"

Shi Yu slapped his thigh. Anyone who says that the archeology department has no future will have to argue with him. Joining the Mechanical Bureau through archeology, who else!

No matter what the upper limit of this stone mirror is, it is definitely no problem to awaken a transcendent race.

For the mechanical type, that's enough.

At that time, with stat points, it may not be possible to create a powerful mechanical life.

He decided that he would collect all kinds of mechanical materials next, and like making the Ice Dragon Blade, he would hand-craft a Gundam!!! He wants to change departments and study in the mechanical department!

"Change, change for me!"

"Mom, look, there's an idiot…"

"…"
