Unspeakable bubbles

The battle was clearly in Bubble's favor, often requiring more than ten crabs to defeat a single-headed dog.

"Cerberus is already at a mid-level for a space lord, and the hounds it leads are not weak either. This battle will be over soon."

Carmen gazed at the battlefield. "Look, the Shadow Lord on the other side is getting restless."

Bubble looked in the direction of the sound and sure enough, a crab with eight claws, about half the height of a person, had joined the battle.

Its claws were incredibly sharp, and in the blink of an eye, it pierced the bellies of several hunting dogs.

Under its leadership, the previously suppressed crab army actually began to fight back.

"Crusher No. 3, keep it up!" Bubble cupped her hands to her mouth, cheering on her pet.

"Awooo!" the three-headed dog roared and charged straight at the giant crab.

The outcome was decided in an instant; as the giant crab's two claws pierced through the forelimbs of Crusher No. 3, its body was torn into three pieces.

With the leader dead, the situation is settled!

All the shadow creatures that were fighting stopped. Although they had been killing each other just moments before, they were now on the same side.

Bubble glanced at the island and instinctively knew that she had two choices.

First, preserve the island and let it become a habitat for crabs at the foot of the mountain.

The second option is to completely annex it.

"A small island? No, a bigger mountain!"

After directing all the crabs to climb to the foot of the mountain, the little girl waved her hand.

The entire island collapsed with a roar, and countless black rocks were absorbed by the mountain.

At the same time, nearly half of the crabs suddenly died, while the remaining half underwent noticeable changes.

"The claws have shortened, and the carapace has thickened?!" Carmen's eyes lit up. He crouched down to observe the invaders whose appearance had changed drastically.

The crabs, lying quietly at the foot of the mountain with their claws retracted, looked just like lifeless stones.

"The islands where they originally lived have disappeared, so they have to change themselves in order to adapt to the new environment."

"Those who cannot adapt to change die, while those that survive can be said to have become a new species!"

Carmen exclaimed excitedly, "Your Majesty, this is an incredible discovery!"

"These crabs are still crabs, but they are not the same crabs as before!"

"I think it's necessary to give them names to distinguish them!"

"Name... since they look like stones, let's call them stone crabs." Surprisingly, Bubble actually came up with a name that sounded pretty good.

"Stone crab? That's a perfect description!"

"By the way, Your Majesty, let's go to the top of the mountain and take a look."

Carmen couldn't wait to say, "Now that the King's shadow space is even larger, if my reasoning is correct, those two trees on the mountaintop should benefit a lot from it!"

Section 218, Chapter 217: Not a threat

"It seems a bit too big."

"It has indeed gotten a little bigger."

"However, it's really only a little bit bigger."

Bubble and Carmen stood in front of two small trees, carefully observing the fruit on them.

"Yes, my prediction was correct. There wasn't much change; it's just that the expansion of the King's shadow space wasn't significant this time."

Carmen reminded her, "However, don't forget, we also have a 'coordinate'."

"But Kuroro said that the barrier should be broken only when Bubbles becomes stronger."

"Hmm, to what extent does that extraterrestrial species mean by 'becoming more powerful'?"

Carmen pondered for a moment: "In my personal opinion, the current king is far stronger than when we first met."

"Then, let's give Bubble a try."

The little girl thought for a moment and said, "If the bubbles haven't met the requirements, the barrier set up by Chrollo and Kotono shouldn't be able to be opened."

“On the contrary, we have a shortcut to expand the shadow space once again.” Carmen smiled.

"Your Majesty, the Shadow Space has great potential. If developed properly, it will be a great asset to you in the future."

'Of course, this assistance will never be as great as our skeletal legion!' Carmen thought to himself.

Carmen had been in the Shadow Space for quite some time and had long compared it to the Skeleton Legion in her mind.

The result is obvious: the Shadowlands are no match for the boundless potential of the Skeleton Legion.

Before long, the skeletal legion will be fully awakened.

While bringing bloodshed and slaughter to the world, the strength of the entire legion, from the most ordinary bone warriors to the strongest legion commanders, will increase dramatically!

Even with the Shadow Space's ability to devour other spaces, the speed at which its power has increased is difficult to match.

Not every day will a strange shadow space collide with us. Even considering the extremely abnormal collision speed at present, this shadow space will not pose a threat to the skeleton army for a very, very long time.

'Heh, if this space were to grow into a world, that would be troublesome. However, this goal cannot be achieved in the short term.'

'To upgrade to a world, the most basic requirement is to have an internal self-sufficiency, forming a complex yet stable food chain.'

'Right now, the Shadow Space only contains hunting dogs, stone crabs, some small animals, and plants! Even with the length of my existence, I don't know if I'll ever see it ascend to the world.'

"Carmen, Carmen!" A small hand waved in front of Carmen, who had a strange smile on her face.

"So, it's not a threat at all. Think about it, haven't I been too cautious by hiding here for so long, studying and observing? Hmm? Ahem, Your Majesty, you called me?"

"Carmen, what are you talking about?" Bubble asked curiously.

"Haha, I mean this shadow space has great potential for growth, Your Majesty should manage it well!"

"Hey, didn't you say something similar before?"

The little girl scratched her head. "Never mind, Bubble has to go back to class now."

"Let's try to break the seal together tonight."

"Alright, by the way, Your Majesty, don't forget about the book!"

"Don't worry, Bubble has already asked. Unicorn Academy has a library. Bubble will buy you a few books after school."

"Huh, changed schools again?" Carmen paused, then asked, "Does Your Majesty still offer purchase discounts?"

"I remember when the military reunification was in place, Your Majesty could buy books for a much lower price!"

"I don't know, Bubble will go check later."

..................................................................

"Hello there!"

"Oh, oh!" The young woman wearing glasses was startled.

She looked around, but didn't see the person she was talking to.

"Where is everyone? Is someone playing a prank on me?"

"Over here, Bubble's over here!"

A voice came from in front of the desk. The librarian was startled and immediately stood up.

It turned out that a little guy was blocked by the desk because of his height; no wonder I didn't see him earlier.

"Hello, little... student?" The librarian hesitated for a moment before asking, "Are you a student at Unicorn Academy? Or are you a teacher's child?"

"Bubble is a student who just transferred here."

"Oh, no wonder." The librarian adjusted his glasses.

This child is so young. If I had seen her before, I would definitely remember her.

"Excuse me, is there anything I can help you with?" the bespectacled woman asked with a formulaic smile.

"Bubble wants to ask, are there any discounts available if Bubble buys books now?"

"Back in my old school, Bubble could buy books for very cheap!"

"Buy books? Classmate, students usually come here to borrow books."

"Furthermore, discounted purchases... Unicorn Academy offers this benefit, but it's only available to students at level three and above."

"Borrowing books won't work; Carmen doesn't like returning books she's read."

"Here you go!" Bubble pulled a student card out of her pocket. Miss Bella had given it to Bubble on her first night at the school.

"Okay, let me check."

"Her name is Bubble, and judging from the photo, it's definitely her. As for the floor number... uh..."

"Sixth floor?!" The manager stared at Bubble in astonishment.

"Big sister, are there any discounts?" Bubble looked at her expectantly.

Although Masumi gave Bubble a lot of pocket money before leaving, it was still a bit tight to use that money to buy books without discounts.

"Yes, of course!" The manager's smile widened, making her appear much more sincere.

Students on the sixth floor enjoy the largest discount of 90%.

She paused, worried that Bubble was too young to understand, and then explained, "It's a book that costs a hundred yuan, but you only need to pay ten yuan."

"Oh, right, there's another restriction: you can only buy ten books per month."

"A 90% discount, limited to ten copies per purchase? Hmm, that's about the same as when the country was unified by force."

Bubble felt relieved. It seemed that although she had gone to a new academy, many things hadn't really changed.

"Wu Tong, so you were a top student who transferred from Wu Tong Academy."

The librarian smiled and asked, "Bubble, have you decided which books to buy?"

"Let me know if you have a specific item in mind, and I'll go get it for you."
