Super Gene Ⅱ: Evolution - Chapter 153
Chapter 153: Chapter 153: The Name of the Pet
“`
It wasn’t long before the Black Crystal Stoneman and Big Red Bull dragged back the two halves of the eggshell.
The Base Variant Creature looked at the eggshell in front of him, and there seemed to be a slight change in its expression.
However, its gaze did not soften; rather, it became even fiercer. The creature struggled with all its might, trying to break free from the Acupoint Sealing control.
As soon as it was able to move slightly, Lin Shen immediately applied another finger technique.
“Offer up your key, and they will be yours,” Lin Shen said to it, pointing at the eggshells.
The Base Variant Creature glared viciously at Lin Shen, either not understanding what he said or showing utter disdain for his words.
“Won’t listen, huh? Then let’s just keep this up and see how long you can hold out,” Lin Shen said fiercely.
He didn’t really have a better option, as the creature’s physique was just too strong, and he had nothing on hand that could kill it.
Even if he could kill it, Lin Shen wasn’t really willing to do so.
Killing it would only yield some materials, but if he could turn it into his own pet, that would be far more useful.
With its bodily strength and destructive capability, in a fully activated Light Patterns state, it could even pose a threat to Ascension Level beings.
Lin Shen didn’t expect it to be able to kill Ascension Level beings; he just needed it to break the shell of an Ascension Egg.
There were so many Ascended Creatures and Ascension Eggs on this planet, and Lin Shen planned to steal some to eat.
But Ascension Eggs were too hard, and he had nothing that could crack them open.
If he could subjugate this creature, the problem would be solved.
Without a better plan for the moment, Lin Shen summoned Xiaoye and Xiaona.
Though they were also made of flesh and blood, like Fei Zai (Fatty), they could adapt to the environment of this planet.
“Go collect the Base Mutation Fluid,” Lin Shen commanded them to gather the Base Mutation Fluid from the dead pets.
It wasn’t that Lin Shen was emotionless, but given the circumstances, if he couldn’t find other food, he would have to rely on the Base Mutation Fluid to survive.
Xiaoye and Xiaona took the water bags from Lin Shen’s hands and went to collect the Base Mutation Fluid from the dead pets, a task only they were suited for.
The other pets were too clumsy; they could fight but were incapable of such delicate work.
While Xiaoye and Xiaona collected the Base Mutation Fluid, Lin Shen was at a standoff with the Base Variant Creature.
After a while, Light Patterns suddenly lit up on the body of the Base Variant Creature. Lin Shen’s expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly moved to seal its acupoints.
But this time, with the defense of the Light Patterns, the force from his fingertips couldn’t penetrate at all. The creature’s struggles did not cease, and its range of motion gradually increased.
“Not good!” Lin Shen quickly withdrew his pets and moved swiftly away.
Just as Lin Shen thought he was going to take a heavy loss, he suddenly saw that Xiaona had not obeyed his order to revert to capsule form but instead moved towards the Base Variant Creature, which was becoming more covered in Light Patterns and nearly able to move again.
“What’s going on? She’s a Steel Level, she doesn’t want to mess with that Base Variant Creature, does she?” Just as Lin Shen was puzzled about Xiaona’s intentions, he saw her place a porcelain gourd on top of the Base Variant Creature’s head.
This wasn’t what Lin Shen expected; he had thought Xiaona would hug the gourd and shout at the Base Variant Creature: “If I call you, would you dare to answer?”
With the gourd placed atop the creature’s head, which had been able to make slight movements, suddenly it stopped moving altogether, though its body shook even more violently.
The porcelain gourd on the head of the Base Variant Creature seemed to have infinite weight, pressing down so hard that it could hardly move, and it had to use all its strength to fight against it.
Its Light Patterns became brighter, yet its body was pressed lower and lower.
“Xiaona is that fierce?” Lin Shen watched, dumbfounded.
“`
Xiaona held that porcelain gourd every day, which didn’t seem heavy at all, but surprisingly, it turned out to be incredibly powerful.
Even with the strength of the Base Variant Creature, it was so overpowered that its body sank lower and lower, unable to break free from the suppression of the porcelain gourd despite its efforts.
Lin Shen speculated in his mind that this was probably one of Xiaona’s skills, rather than the porcelain gourd actually being that heavy.
Still, a skill at the Steel Level capable of suppressing such a Base Variant Creature was shocking enough.
This made Lin Shen even more suspicious of their relationship with The Ancient Realm King.
The Base Variant Creature trembled all over, half of its body sinking into the ground, yet it still couldn’t escape the suppression.
Seeing its trembling body, if this continued, it was likely that its armor would be crushed.
Suddenly, the Base Variant Creature let out a loud cry and then spat out a small key from its forehead.
Lin Shen was overjoyed, caught the key, and then inserted it into his keyhole.
Lin Shen probed the key, but the Base Variant Creature still did not move, and it did not transform into a Base Mutation egg.
Xiaona reached over, took away the porcelain gourd, and only then did the body of the Base Variant Creature suddenly change, soon turning into a small Pet Capsule.
“You’ve obtained a Super-Base Pet, Dragon Hunter Jiweis.” The watch vibrated with a notification, displaying a message.
“Eh… What does Jiweis mean? Is that its name? Pets actually have names?” Lin Shen was somewhat shocked; a pet having a name was something he had never seen before.
Lin Shen quickly looked at the detailed information for Dragon Hunter Jiweis, as a Base Variant Creature with a name intrigued him greatly.
Dragon Hunter Jiweis: Super-Base Crystal-based Creature (Evolvable)
Strength: 41.
Speed: 41.
Hardness: 41.
Toughness: 41.
Base Mutation Rate: One hundred percent.
Innate Skills: Super-Base Dragon Patterns, Super-Base Dragon’s Soul, Super-Base Dragon Slayer, Super-Base Heart of the Brave.
Dragon Hunter Jiweis: The legendary warrior who hunts evil dragons, the strongest of dragon hunters.
Super-Base Dragon Patterns: Every time Jiweis slays an evil dragon, its dragon soul is etched onto his body; when Dragon Patterns are activated, the blessing of the dragon soul can be obtained.
Super-Base Dragon’s Soul: The physique gained through bathing in dragon blood, possessing an almost immortal body.
Super-Base Dragon Slayer: Has power that represses dragon-type creatures.
Super-Base Heart of the Brave: In the state of Heart of the Brave, all attributes and skills receive a certain enhancement.
Lin Shen had never seen such detailed information on a pet before. Although the attributes of Dragon Hunter Jiweis were not much different from those of the Frost Swordsman, the combat capability was vastly different.
Jiweis possessed four skills, and all four could be called abnormal.
From his combat power, it was evident that with so many skill enhancements, his combat power was no less than that of an average Ascension.
“This is just too strong. With Jiweis, couldn’t I stealthily steal those Ascension Eggs? He has Dragon-killing Talent, which means damage is increased against dragon-type creatures; he should be able to break those Ascension Eggs.” Lin Shen felt that his future was bright.
The gloom from losing so many pets before was completely healed in an instant.
