Don't Starve, my items can be upgraded

Chapter 118 Parasitic Vine
When the tendons emitting a tender green glow spread throughout the entire vine, Huyan Lingxi stopped.

The tender green vines that were entangled with the cyan-gold vines disappeared one after another.

The originally violent vine monster suddenly became gentle and seemed to have completely lost its aggressiveness.

Yang Chen suddenly asked: "If I really create a super-magical item, will there be a reward?"

Because he was unsure, he had not dared to mention the reward before. After all, the target was a super-evolved person of the Huyan family.

"If you succeed, I will give you 10,000 doses of first-level serum as a reward for your hard work." Huyan Lingxi said generously.

As for why it didn't work, she didn't say.

I know without asking that if she fails, it’s already good enough that she doesn’t blame Yang Chen, and she still wants a reward?
"alright."

Yang Chen did not bargain, in order to avoid being unable to shift the blame after failure.

“I have two ideas now.”

He said: "One is to disassemble this vine, and then have people transfer its attributes, making it into a large number of small objects, and then assemble the probabilities from these small objects."

"What is the effect of the strange object obtained by this method?" Huyan Lingxi asked.

“It’s hard to say.” Yang Chen spread his hands.

Huyan Lingxi was obviously not satisfied with this method: "What about the second method?"

"The second method is to burn our boats and use the entire vine!"

Yang Chen said with a serious expression: “Once this method succeeds, the finished product should be very powerful, but once it fails, everything will be in vain.”

After all, it is equivalent to the attributes derived from a complete super evolver, so it must not be too bad.

"If you don't succeed, you will die?"

Huyan Lingxi was silent for a moment, then said, "Then choose this one. Either it is extremely powerful, or... it doesn't matter."

“…What courage!”

Yang Chen admired this woman a little: "Well, the next step is the beginning of consumption. Please pay the energy. You can settle it with serum. Don't worry, I will use it in front of you and will not keep it for myself."

Huyan Lingxi directly took out a hundred test tubes: "This is a hundred units of second-level serum, the energy content is equivalent to a thousand units of first-level serum."

"It's so rich."

Yang Chen took the serum, opened a bottle and drank it.

Feeling that the serum was easily transformed into derivative Qi, he immediately grasped one of the cyan-gold vines extended by the vine monster and began to input derivative Qi into it.

During this process, he was secretly on guard and decided to stop immediately if the vine monster showed signs of catalyzed evolution.

However, what puzzled him was that as he injected derivative energy into the cyan-gold vines, this tamed vine spirit not only did not show a tendency to evolve further, but instead became even gentler.

Even though he had been forcibly tamed by Huyan Lingxi before, he was still somewhat restless, perhaps due to instinctive fear and nervousness.

But now, with the input of strands of derivative energy, it slowly became quiet, and even the cyan-gold vines stopped shaking.

"So, are spirits and human evolutionists fundamentally different?"

Yang Chen understood in his mind, and continued to input the derivative energy without worry, wanting to see if this living monster could develop new abilities.

Anyway, all the rights of interpretation are in his hands. If he finds that this monster is in danger of exposing its abilities, he will kill it and dismantle it into materials to make it again.

However, if there is no such risk and no super-magical item has been created, then use the new properties derived from the vine monster to fool Huyan Lingxi first.

After all, once a super monster has derived new properties, even if it is worse, it should not be too bad and can be barely treated as a "super wonder".

There was a howling sandstorm outside, completely blocking the view from here.

In addition, Peng Min's space barrier has the function of shielding breath. Even though the vine monster's body is very huge, no one noticed the abnormality here.

What is different from the past is that even high-level items would not take long to develop attributes.

However, this time, one hour passed, two hours passed...

This vine-like super monster didn't react at all, or rather, its only reaction was that it seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep and turned into an ordinary plant.

Just as Yang Chen was hesitating whether to stop, the roots of the vine monster suddenly began to shrink.

Not only the roots, but also the vines that were hundreds of meters long began to slowly shrink.

Peng Min and Huyan Lingxi both opened their eyes wide and watched carefully, and both women became nervous.

But the two women had completely different thoughts.

Peng Min was worried that Huyan Lingxi would blame Yang Chen after failure.

Huyan Lingxi was worried that after his failure, it would be difficult for him to rise again in the Huyan clan, because after the Divine Shadow Disaster was over, the number of super-evolved people in the entire Huyan clan would probably exceed five.

By then, the competitive pressure will be enormous, but she is too young and her foundation cannot compare to others.

Because the two super evolvers that are born now are both high-level evolvers. Once they become super evolvers, their strength will be extremely powerful.

As time passed, the vines continued to shrink, and a large number of roots and vines shrank towards the junction of the rhizomes. Gradually, a lump-like thing appeared.

The amazing thing is that no matter how many roots and vines were retracted, the lump always remained the size of a fist and showed no sign of growing any further.

The two women couldn't sense it, but Yang Chen could sense that inside this lump, there was an increasingly astonishing vitality being nurtured.

Finally, as daylight began to grow, all the roots and vines retracted.

The originally huge vine monster was reduced to a fist-sized wooden lump.

And it was at this time that the data was finally born.

The moment he saw the data, Yang Chen's pupils shrank, and he suddenly took the lump in his hand.

The moment he took the wooden lump in his hand, a green and gold vine automatically appeared in his mind.

This phenomenon——

It looks so similar to the crosshairs of the [Gauss Invisible Nail Gun]!
"It actually worked?!"

Yang Chen was secretly surprised, and couldn't help but take another look at the data:
[Parasitic Vine (One-time): A super rare item. If fed with blood, it can live in the body of the blood owner, absorb the owner's blood essence to grow, and fight for the owner. If used by ordinary evolvers, they will gain the ability to summon vines. If used by super evolvers who summon vines, they will directly fuse this item into one, sublimating it to the utmost. After using it, it cannot be taken out again until the person is killed and the body rots. Only then can the parasitic vine reappear and be used again.]

It was a one-time thing!
But it’s not something that disappears once used. In theory, this kind of thing can be passed down from generation to generation.

However, after the first person uses it, this super-rare item will only reappear after the person dies and his body decays.

Seeing Yang Chen's reaction, Huyan Lingxi thought that Yang Chen wanted to take it for himself, and subconsciously summoned a vine to snatch the wooden lump.

And at the moment when the wooden block was in her hand, she suddenly found a green and golden vine appeared in her heart.

"A vision that can be reflected in the mind? This?!"

Her breathing became rapid. Even if Yang Chen didn't speak, she understood that this was a super rare item!
Because there are records within the Huyan clan, although not all super-magical objects have the ability to reflect visions in the mind or soul, as long as such visions appear, it must be a super-magical object.

"Is this... a success?" Peng Min breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a little regretful.

Judging from the reactions of Yang Chen and Huyan Lingxi, this super strange object should be very powerful.

Unfortunately, this super rare item belongs to Huyan Lingxi, so they can’t snatch it away even if they want to.

“It was a lucky success.”

Yang Chen suppressed the greed in his heart, smiled, and said: “Miss Huyan Lingxi, congratulations.”

This item, perhaps because it was tamed by Huyan Lingxi when it was still a vine monster, has been contaminated with Huyan Lingxi's power of evolution.

Therefore, the derived abilities are very suitable for Huyan Lingxi.

It can even be said that this thing was created specifically for Huyan Lingxi. It is a perfect match for this woman.

"Congratulations!"

Huyan Lingxi suppressed his excitement and said, "As I said before, I will give you 10,000 doses of the first-level serum, and I can help you once. You can use it at any time."

“Take action for me once?” Yang Chen’s heart moved.

If the other party keeps his word, the value of this promise is far more than 10,000 doses of first-level serum.

"By the way, does this super strange thing have a name?" Huyan Lingxi asked.

"Parasitic vine."

Yang Chen said: "Its name is 'Parasite Vine'. It can be used through normal refining, but its true effect cannot be brought out."

"Super rare items all have special methods of refining."

Huyan Lingxi was very clear about this, and she couldn't wait to ask, "How do I completely refine the 'parasitic vine'?"

"Feed with blood."

Yang Chen said: “Because its ability is very similar to yours, plus you have already tamed it before, its ability can be said to be a perfect match for you. After using it, it will live in your body and completely merge with you. At that time, you will re-evolve and sublimate to the utmost. Unless you die, it will be difficult to take this item out.”

"A fusion-type wonder? Not bad, I like it!"

Huyan Lingxi was even happier. In this way, even if the ancestor wanted to give up this super rare item, it would be impossible.

One is that this rare item is a perfect match for himself, and the other is that as a super evolver, he is extremely precious even to the clan, and the ancestor would definitely not be willing to kill himself.

Even, by then, the ancestor might completely change his attitude towards himself.

"I'll deliver the serum soon."

Huyan Lingxi couldn't wait to summon the vine dragon to fly away. Anyway, with the sandstorm as cover and the more advanced signal shielding equipment he carried with him, Yinghu Oasis could not detect him at all.

After flying all the way out of Yinghu Oasis, she did not go directly back to the previous cave, but continued to move forward.

After walking for hundreds of kilometers, she came to a cave she had dug herself.

After making sure there was no sign of anyone entering, she sealed the cave with tender green vines, then bit her finger and dripped a drop of blood onto an ordinary-looking wooden lump.
