Chapter 119 - Buggy's Dragon Aura
Chapter 119 – Buggy’s Dragon Aura
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
What?
Overlord level?
Shi Yu: “???”
Shi Yu suspected that he had heard wrong.
This didn’t seem to be the level system of a Beast Tamer…
It was for a transcendent creature!
Awakening, transcendent, commander, monarch, overlord, guardian, myth. There were seven major growth stages for transcendent creatures. The overlord was at the fifth stage!
“He’s not human?” Shi Yu fainted.
“Yes.” Lin Xiuzhu nodded. “Teacher Yao is a gem cat.”
Shi Yu: “???”
“Is it the gem cat I know?”
Gem Cat
[Attributes]: None
[Race Level]: Low-level transcendent
[Race Skill]: Gem Eye (Levelless Skill)
[Introduction]: A cat-type transcendent creature that can complete evolution through various Cat’s Eye Gems.
Weren’t gem cats a low-level transcendent race?
If Shi Yu’s impression wasn’t wrong, according to the current records, the gem cat with the highest racial level was only a high-level commander race. It wasn’t as powerful as Buggy.
How did this pet grow to the overlord level!
“Which legendary Beast Tamer’s pet is it…” Shi Yu asked curiously.
“Not a pet,” Lin Xiuzhu said, “but an ownerless overlord creature.”
Shi Yu: “???”
As she walked, she introduced it to Shi Yu.
“This started more than 100 years ago.”
The suggestion started with the Mythical Era…
“At that time, the seven human countries formed an alliance.”
“In order to show their friendliness, the countries gave each other some special pets of their own countries.”
“That’s when the gem cat was introduced into the country from other countries.”
“At that time, Ancient Capital University had just been established. Because the principal liked cats very much, she raised dozens of cat-type pets on the school campus. This was considered a special scenery for Ancient Capital University at that time.”
“The students can see all kinds of cat pets on the lawn and in the corners casually.”
“Teacher Ying was one of the gem cats at that time. It was also the oldest gem cat.”
“It seems that the students and teachers at that time liked this gem cat very much, so they wanted to collect a good quality Cat’s Eye Gem and give it to it to help it evolve.”
“But no one expected that this gem cat is very special. It can’t complete evolution through the Cat’s Eye Gem.”
“Although it can’t evolve, this gem cat likes gemstones very much. It has no intention of returning the gift it has gotten. Every year on its birthday, it will receive a Cat’s Eye Gem as a gift.”
“Ten years later, it obtained a Cat’s Eye Gem necklace… It became the richest transcendent creature in Ancient Capital University.”
“Then?” Shi Yu was at a loss. That worked?
The panda senior had a strange expression. “Then, the turning point came. A hundred years ago, a mystic realm of the totem era appeared. The disaster of the undead erupted in the ancient capital. The ancient capital University was the first to bear the brunt of it and was swept into the disaster.”
“Many students and pets were in danger. At this moment, this gem cat, which was like a stray cat, completed its evolution through more than ten Cat’s Eye Gems. It obtained more than ten high-level skills of different attributes and even super-level skills, leading some students to complete the counterattack…”
“From then on, it became the guardian of Ancient Capital University. It stayed for a hundred years and sent away batch after batch of students and teachers. To this day, it’s said that its growth level has already reached the overlord level.”
“???” Shi Yu was stunned on the spot.
It was ridiculous!
Are you sure this growth experience is an ordinary gem cat and not a mythical creature cub?
Lin Xiuzhu shrugged and said, “When I first heard this story from my senior, I was at a loss for a long time… But everyone says so, so maybe it’s true.”
“Although it has never had a Beast Tamer, it is indeed a guardian of Ancient Capital University. It has been living on the campus since the school was built a hundred years ago.”
“At that time, it was the wealthiest transcendent creature in Ancient Capital University. It’s the same now, because it’s managing the resource warehouse here… It received the salary of a guardian for decades and bought a warehouse of gem collections…”
Shi Yu fell into deep thought. It was better not to know where to start complaining.
A gem cat that had grown into an overlord?
For pets like the Gem Cat, as long as they had the rare resource “Cat’s Eye Gem”, they could obtain different racial skills according to the type of gem and complete evolution.
But one thing could be proven. A gem cat could only complete evolution through one Cat’s Eye Gem in its lifetime. But this one from the Ancient Capital University, it completed evolution through more than ten pieces at once? It obtained more than ten racial skills?
This didn’t make sense!
This talent… was too strange.
“In short, when the time comes, don’t treat it as a stray gem cat to play with and tease. Be more respectful, more respectful,” Lin Xiuzhu warned.
“Understood!” Shi Yu nodded heavily. What was the point of petting cats? He was petting pandas…
Wait, wait!
“You just said that this overlord-level gem cat has more than ten high-level skills with different attributes, and even super-level skills?” Shi Yu was stunned.
“Yes.” Senior Panda nodded.
“If I can’t touch it, can I greet it by shaking its paw…”
Lin Xiuzhu: “?”
“I’m just kidding. What abilities does it have? Did it get them from the Cat’s Eye Gem?”
“I’m not sure either… I only know that it can clone itself, use psychic abilities, and Teleport.” The panda senior shook her head.
“I see…” Shi Yu fell into deep thought.
He had never seen an overlord-level creature before. More than ten high-level skills sounded very replicating…
If it could use Psychic and Teleport, it meant that this Teacher Ying had spiritual and spatial talents??
However, this was not what Shi Yu was most concerned about.
What caught Shi Yu’s attention the most was the words “different attributes”. It was its racial skill as a gem cat, the levelless Gem Eye!
Skill: Eye of the Gem
[Level]: None
[Introduction]: The racial skill of the gem cat can allow the eye to evolve and become a special structure that can absorb the power of the cat’s eye gem. It’s a rare special racial skill without any concept of proficiency.
Gem Cats evolved through this skill, similar to Green Silkworm and Dragon Carp.
They could absorb the power of the Cat’s Eye Gem through the Eye of the Gem and obtain skills of different attributes.
However, the difference was that the Eye of the Gem skill could not increase proficiency. There was no concept of proficiency, and it could only fuse one gem.
Therefore, there was a limit to the gem cat’s evolutionary potential. No matter how good the quality of the cat’s eye gem was, they couldn’t absorb it perfectly. The gem cat evolution form of the highest race recorded was only a high-level commander.
However, the gem cat from Ancient Capital University was definitely super…
At this moment, Shi Yu was curious. Was this gem cat’s Eye of Gem skill relatively special, causing it to mutate?
For example, it could increase proficiency and absorb more mutations such as the power of the Cat’s Eye Gem.
But even if it wasn’t a mutation, if he replicated the skill Gem Eye, could he teach his pet and increase its proficiency?
Shi Yu was more curious.
This was the same as the Worm Silk and the Leaping Dragon Gate. It was a skill that could change the pet’s talent in attributes. Moreover, it had no attributes, which meant that the compatibility could satisfy most pets.
If Eleven learned the Eye of the Gem and absorbed the power of a Time-Element Cat’s Eye Gem, even if it couldn’t complete its evolution like the Gem Cat, as long as it perfectly absorbed the power of the gem through this skill, it would be equivalent to it obtaining a time talent. It would be like the perfect level of worm silk that could change attributes.
In other words, this was a basic skill that could change a pet’s compatibility with different attributes… Shi Yu was wary.
In the future, if there were any skills that he really wanted to teach Eleven and the bugs but didn’t have enough compatibility, he might be able to use this method to change their corresponding talent.
…
Soon, Shi Yu and the others arrived at the resource warehouse.
The Ancient Capital University’s Resource Chamber was just like a tall neighborhood. It was huge.
At the entrance, there was a small house that looked like a security room. Inside, a big, soft, doll-like, white cat with a V-shaped head and smooth fur was hugging a pillow to sleep.
After sensing that someone was coming, it patted the bed with its fluffy tail and slowly opened its eyes, revealing eyes that were like blue gems in the sky. Then, it slowly got up and shook its body, stretching the hair on its neck that was like a “scarf”.
“Wu ~ ~” It yawned and jumped onto the window sill. At this moment, Shi Yu and the others happened to walk over.
“Teacher Ying!” Sister Panda greeted with a smile.
“Hello ~” The white gem cat continued to nap lazily and spoke in human language. Its voice was like a mature mature mature mature woman with a lazy voice.
“Are you a new student?” The big white cat glanced at Shi Yu, who was carefully observing itself behind Lin Xiuzhu, and asked.
School had yet to start at this time. During the holidays, there were basically no new students. However, Shi Yu had already greeted the Archeological Department in advance and came through the back door. It didn’t matter.
“Yes.” Shi Yu nodded.
“Then you guys go in.” It took a sip of water and continued to turn around and return to the bed.
“I’ve already informed my clone.”
Shi Yu :”…”
Lin Xiuzhu immediately pulled Shi Yu into the place to collect resources.
“Are all of these managed by its avatars?” Shi Yu asked.
“No, but it’s a holiday now. The other teachers are on leave, so it’s the only one here.”
Then, under Lin Xiuzhu’s lead, Shi Yu and the others saw another cat that was identical to the gem cat just now.
Clone skill…
This was also a high-level skill. It was a little similar to an illusion, but it could only create its own clone.
At entry level, one could only create phantom clones.
At the proficiency level, he could create a physical energy clone, and he could have the same skill as his main body, which was his attribute weakness.
After this skill’s proficiency was high enough, its tactical value was actually very high. However, at the moment, Shi Yu temporarily didn’t have any need for this.
“What do you want to sell?” The big white cat stood in the courtyard and signaled for Shi Yu to take out what he wanted to sell.
“These…” Shi Yu touched the ruins bead on his neck. In the next second, countless resources were placed in the courtyard.
The mountain-like pile of resources and ice-element energy crystals made the gem cat’s expression darken.
It glanced at the ruin bead on Shi Yu’s neck and felt its head hurt. This new student was not simple.
There was actually spatial equipment.
However, why were they all trash resources, and there were so many of them!!
“Meow!!!”
The original Ying was making an annoyed sound too.
The other employees weren’t around either. It had to do the calculations itself and categorize and collect them!!
“Hee.” At this moment, when she saw the headache on Ying’s clone, the panda senior smiled imperceptibly.
Before setting off, she had also inquired about it. Didn’t Shi Yu want to sell resources? Why did he come out empty-handed?
Immediately after, Shi Yu showed her the Ruins Bead, making Lin Xiuzhu fall silent for a long time.
Then, Lin Xiuzhu asked Shi Yu how many resources he had to sell. When Shi Yu mentioned hundreds of types, Lin Xiuzhu had already expected the situation in front of him.
This cat preferred simple transactions. For example, if Shi Yu sold a Nine-tailed Fox Heart, it would definitely trade happily. However, it had always been blind to low-level and large numbers of trash resources because it was too troublesome to recover and the work was too cumbersome.
“Wait for me.” Its face fell.
Soon after.
The pile of low-level resources that Shi Yu took out was estimated.
The resources collected by Shi Yu from the Island of Trials, excluding the Dragon Soul Grass, were worth about 1,200,000.
As for energy crystals, due to their pretty good quality, they were worth about 25 million.
In total, there were more than 26 million worth of resources. Shi Yu sold them all in one go.
From then on, the only valuable resources left were the Ice Dragon Whisker, Dragon Soul Grass, and Ethereal Spirit Stone.
26,000,0000!
Shi Yu was overjoyed. 260 divine beans! Even if it was a high-level skill, it could be used nearly 200 times!!
What did this mean?!
It represented three high-level skills!!
Initially, Shi Yu only had two million yuan in savings and was about to become poor. However, after this, he became rich immediately and gained some freedom.
Of course, if he wanted to finish all of them, Shi Yu estimated that it would be difficult to do without at least a year or so. Constitution and money were the greatest enemies that limited his points.
“I’ve taken away the resources. Your money will be in the account in two hours.”
“Alright, you can leave now,” the big white cat said with a headache after sending the reclaimed resources to different places.
“Wait, Teacher Ying, I still want to buy three sets of Moonlight Powder,” Shi Yu said.
Moonlight Powder, a level-three spiritual-type resource, was used to neutralize and match the Dragon Soul Grass. Shi Yu had already investigated it clearly. Wasn’t this perfect for Buggy?
At that time, it would master the deterrence skill with the nature of the dragon’s might. Its current frost dragon phantom would be even more completed.
As for the evolution materials for Eleven and Worm, Shi Yu was really helpless at the moment. He would wait for the vocation assessment and the reward for discovering the Iron-eating Beast’s evolution to be transferred to the account.
“Buy resources?”
“That’s the job of the other clone. You guys go and find it.” When the big white cat heard that, it immediately waved its paw lazily and started chasing people away.
Shi Yu and Lin Xiuzhu: “???”
Are its clones still divided into each other???
…
Next, after spending more than 200,000 to buy three bottles of Moonlight Powder, Shi Yu and Lin Xiuzhu left the resource area.
“Senior, thank you for leading the way.”
After coming out, Shi Yu thanked her.
After recognizing the way this time, he could come by himself next time.
“No problem.”
Lin Xiuzhu smiled and said, “Spatial equipment, more than 20 million yuan. Most of it was obtained from the ruins in Ping Cheng, right? You’re a little rich now.”
When he thought of how Shi Yu wanted to borrow money to buy the iron-eating beast cub half a year ago, Lin Xiuzhu felt that it was unreal.
This growth speed and earnings speed was too unscientific!
“20,000,000 isn’t enough to buy Eleven a pair of evolution claws.” Shi Yu smiled bitterly.
Lin Xiuzhu covered his mouth and smiled. “I think the evolved form of the Iron-eating Beast should still be called the Gold-Eating Beast.”
Shi Yu smiled. This naming style was too much. After Buggy evolved, would it be called the Gold Swallowing Butterfly?
Iron-eating Beast Research Institute.
After walking around the resource bank, Shi Yu and the others returned.
Just as he returned, Shi Yu discovered a message on his cell phone.
The results of the survival assessment in the vocation assessment were out.
Although Shi Yu had already known the results in advance, most of the candidates only officially knew now.
However, at this moment, among the more than 6,000 candidates in various places in Ancient Capital City, only 700 were in a good mood, while the remaining thousands wore painful masks.
They had fallen off the rankings… They would have to wait another year.
Apart from the results, they were also informed of the subsequent assessment procedures.
The final ranking battle would be held in the Ancient Capital Arena in the Beast Tamer Association of Ancient Capital City tomorrow.
At that time, relevant personnel from major media, universities, and businesses would come to watch the battle.
Among them, the audience had all adopted an internal invitation system. No passers-by could come to the venue to watch this rule just by buying tickets, so only a few relevant institutions could see the ranking competition.
Most unrelated people could only wait for the official announcement of the assessment rankings and subsequent news editing. They couldn’t see the details of the battle.
But even so, there were still thousands of spectators present.
This was because the candidates participating in the vocation assessment also had special benefits. They could be relevant personnel and watch the subsequent assessment. If the candidates who fell off the rankings also went to watch the assessment, the number of spectators would immediately increase.
“Want to watch the battle?”
Shi Yu stared at the electronic invitation on his cell phone and shook his head.
Forget it, it didn’t mean much.
“The next ranking battle will continue for three days. The top 16 of the 700 plus candidates will be decided, and then the final ranking battle with the 16 seeded candidates…”
“In other words, I have three days to prepare.”
After Shi Yu returned to the room, he thought about it. Compared to watching the battle, it was better to prepare for battle.
For example, he could use these three days to help Buggy absorb the Dragon Soul Grass and then assist it in raising its deterrence to the proficient level. That was the extent of the damage.
He should just add a high-level skill as soon as possible. It shouldn’t affect his condition, right…
…
In the ruins pearl.
At this moment, after selling all the resources, the place became much quieter. Only Eleven and the food of the bugs were left.
At that moment, the two pets were practicing Soaring Sky and bullying tactics.
They planned to use the combination of the two tactics.
This Wuji Airlines tactic’s greatest flaw was that its accuracy wasn’t enough, and its opponent would easily be able to dodge.
In that case, as long as they used deterrence together during the fall to deter the enemy from moving, wouldn’t that be fine?
This was inspired by the profundity of Shi Yu’s swordplay!
Precision Strike! This wave was invincible!
“Stop for a moment.”
Looking at the huge pit on the ground, Shi Yu looked at the Eleven and Buggy with a dark expression and patted his forehead.
“Wuu!” “Ji!!”
Seeing that the Beast Tamer had come in, the two pets quickly came over and begged Shi Yu to prepare a match for them to use their dual battle tactics.
It wasn’t that they felt that the joint attack strategy was very powerful, but that they wanted to take a picture together.
There was no point in taking many pictures together in a one-on-one battle, but using a joint attack strategy of “Wuji Airlines” and “Bullying” could show their tacit understanding!
“Alright, as long as you guys are happy,” Shi Yu said indifferently. At the same time, his heart ached for the opponent of this tactical experimental subject for a second.
This strategy was very dumb, but the pets that used this strategy was very strong, so it would cause the opponent to be very desperate.
But as long as Eleven and Buggy were happy, this was not a problem.
“But Buggy, is your deterrence still a bit weak?”
Buggy:???
What a big truth.
Eleven nodded silently. It was indeed a little lousy.
It felt like it was the one doing all the deterrence, like Buggy wasn’t doing much.
“Ji!” Buggy looked at the leader with tears in its eyes.
What happened to being a bully together?
In the end, it wasn’t using force to suppress others, but its own teammate?
Shi Yu and Eleven nodded. Wasn’t that what it meant now?
“Ji—” Seeing that the Beast Tamer and the leader said this, Buggy shed tears. Didn’t it just learn it a while ago…
What could it do?
“Hehe, then let’s take advantage of the time and improve.”
With that said, Shi Yu smiled and took out the golden Moonlight Powder and the preserved Dragon Soul Grass.
“Ji! Ji!”
The worm that was originally feeling aggrieved immediately lit up when it saw the Dragon Soul Grass.
It was the Dragon Might Grass!
Can it use it now?
“Yes.”
“Let’s try the effect first, but it might be very difficult for you to control the deterrence during the process. Eleven, you have to suppress its deterrence later to prevent the worm from losing its mind and going berserk.”
Buggy shook its head. No, no, no.
Please believe in its willpower!
“It’s not a matter of willpower or not. This is a level-three resource. The energy intensity is very high, and it’s almost level four…” Shi Yu found clear water to soak the Moonlight Powder. Soon, the bowl of clear water turned pale yellow.
“Wuu!” Eleven patted its chest. Teach it.
Even if it was the might of a True Dragon, it couldn’t stir up any waves in front of it.
“There.”
Next, Shi Yu followed the instructions he had found and let Buggy drink the Moonlight Water.
After the worm gulped it down, Shi Yu handed it a Dragon Soul Grass.
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.” After taking the Dragon Soul Grass, Buggy quickly ate it.
Then, they widened his eyes and waited for a reaction.
“( ゚皿 ゚メ)!!!!” A moment later, Buggy’s brain was stunned.
It suddenly felt a violent force surging in its body.
It showed a painful expression. A huge mental wave erupted from its body, forming a substantial spiritual deterrence. It was clearly a silkworm, but its deterrence wave seemed to have turned into an azure dragon at that moment.
“Roar!!!”
Due to the huge power contained in the Dragon Soul Grass, the deterrence effect of the Dragon Soul Grass at this moment combined with the spiritual deterrence of Buggy itself… Started forming an even stronger pseudo dragon’s might. Intense energy kept leaking.
Fortunately, Eleven was standing beside Buggy at this moment, letting the monarch aura wrap around Buggy’s aura so that its aura wouldn’t affect Shi Yu.
“(๑ _ ಥ) Ji!!!” Buggy cried. It was indeed a little out of control.
Now, Buggy felt that its deterrence was like a wild horse that had escaped its restraints and was running continuously.
“Steady, steady, the effect of the Moonlight Grass hasn’t taken effect yet.”
Shi Yu comforted it. After a moment, the moonlight water that the worm had drunk at the start finally had a special effect. The spiritual fluctuations of the Dragon Might and the worm began to slowly fuse.
At this moment, Buggy’s expression eased.
After another two minutes, Buggy finally controlled his aura. It opened its eyes in confusion and unknowingly broke out in sweat.
“How do you feel?”
Shi Yu asked, “Is there anything uncomfortable about this?”
“Ji.” Buggy shook its head.
Then, it looked up in despair at Eleven, who was releasing its king’s aura, which was also an expert level deterrence. It kept feeling that even after it was strengthened, its deterrence still broke at Eleven’s deterrence in an instant.
Eleven’s deterrence just now was like a big hand covering it, preventing it from really going berserk…
“Ji!!!” The bug released its deterrence again.
Boom!!!
The invisible spiritual deterrence hit Eleven’s almost physical king’s aura like a drop of water sinking into the ocean.
Worm: Σ (° △ ° | |)
“〈( ̄) ̄)〈Wuu.” Eleven took a look at the Dragon Soul Grass and Buggy and shook its head silently. As expected, it wasn’t as powerful as the point upgrade power of a Beast Tamer!
What dragon might? It was all fluff.
Skill proficiency was the way to go!
Buggy :”…”
Buggy was silent, finally realizing this.
Why wasn’t this dragon might as powerful as he imagined?
“Ji! (Shi Yu, increase points!)” In the next moment, Buggy pushed aside the Dragon Soul Grass and Moonlight Powder and looked at the Beast Tamer in anticipation.
Forget it, It should choose to believe in Beast Tamers.
Shi Yu :”…”
“Who asked you to use deterrence to compete with Eleven? The nature of the Dragon Might is to better perfect the Ice Dragon Phantom…”
Shi Yu’s face darkened, but he still took out the divine bean and stretched out his hand to increase points. He planned to increase the deterrence of the worm to the proficient level first.
Then, he would let Buggy use the remaining two portions of Dragon Soul Grass…
A moment later.
[Skill]: Deterrence / False Dragon Might (Proficient)
After adding the points, Shi Yu sat beside it weakly, holding a thermos.
Damn it.
The high-level skill was too damaging. It was still alright now, but he definitely couldn’t increase it randomly before the competition, or else even with supplements, he wouldn’t be able to withstand it.
Shi Yu didn’t want Eleven to really push him onto the stage in a wheelchair.
This definitely didn’t match the style of the edited survival trial. It affected one’s character profile.
He had to take one path to the end. As long as he wasn’t embarrassed, everything was fine.
“Ji!!!” This time, after deterrence reached the proficiency level, Buggy released deterrence again!
Boom!!!
This time, it was no longer an invisible deterrence. The green spiritual wave hit Eleven’s almost physical king’s aura domain like a green dragon. Then, it was like a drop of water that sank into the sea again without any ripples.
Worm: Σ (° △ ° | |)
Eleven: (ーー ゙)
There was still a level difference.
Shi Yu speechlessly looked at the bug that wanted to use deterrence to defeat Eleven. Although it couldn’t defeat Eleven, the ice dragon that was formed from this proficient pseudo-dragon might shouldn’t be too weak even if it didn’t use the Ice Dragon Whiskers.
Most importantly, he felt that he could really use this silkworm as a dragon now.
At that time, he would directly make Buggy become an ice dragon during the summoning process. Then, it would release dragon might when it came out. He felt that even if it was a commander rank creature, it would be scared away if it wasn’t careful.
“Alright, the dual deterrence has been achieved. I hope the next opponent won’t faint and lose the courage to attack.” At this moment, looking at the deterrence confrontation between Worm and Eleven, Shi Yu looked forward to the next ranking battle and felt that he was a little closer to first place.
Target: Honor (Rewards)!
