My beast taming system has absolutely no problems!

Chapter 115 The Beautiful Cube Takes Effect, and the Mud Loach's Transformation! (4.8k words, please vote with monthly tickets!!)

After seeing Ye Nannan off, Xia Yu closed the door.

Then he released the Spirit Velvet Beast and Lady Snow Spirit.

Xiao Ling was clearly bored in the Beast Taming Space.

As soon as it emerged, a flash of white light appeared on its body, and it immediately switched to the Wood Spirit Velvet form.

She wobbled to the French windows and curled herself into a fluffy, soft green ball of fur.

I nestled on the wooden floor, which was soaked by the midday sun.

The leaves on its back unfurled, and photosynthesis began.

As Xia Yu watched this scene, the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up slightly.

Thinking about it this way, being able to freely switch between forms is indeed quite convenient.

The water-like velvet shape allows it to move freely underwater.

Wood spirits can replenish their energy by basking in the sun.

I wonder if, if it evolves into Wind Spirit Velvet, it will be able to carry me into the sky...

After imagining this scene for a moment, Xia Yu decisively withdrew the idea.

Given the size of the Spirit Velvet Beast, even if it were to evolve into the Wind Spirit Velvet, it would still be impossible for it to have the ability to carry people like the Azure Feathered Swan.

On the other side, Lady Snow Spirit landed beside the sofa, her icy blue eyes scanning the unfamiliar room.

Without Xia Yu needing to remind her, she used her mental power to check if there were any hidden cameras or anything like that in the house.

"Hey~"

Once she confirmed that everything was safe, she nodded to Xia Yu.

Only then did the latter feel relieved and condense the third six-pointed star array.

Before the starlight had completely dissipated, a purple nebula shot out from the formation and instantly smeared itself onto Xia Yu's face.

"Mo Gu~~~"

The two nebula tentacles of the little nebula stretched out like cotton candy and wrapped around the back of Xia Yu's head.

His entire body was stuck to his face like a seaweed pancake, like a facehugger.

It let out a long, drawn-out, pitiful cry.

Compared to Lady Snow Spirit and the Spirit Velvet Beast, it was the one that was imprisoned for the longest time.

It's been at least a dozen hours since we left the Donglin Dojo.

For the active and clingy Nebula, it was nothing short of inhuman torture.

Xia Yu was so covered in it that he could hardly breathe, so he reached out and peeled the clingy little thing off his face.

He cradled the little nebula in his hands and asked, "Have you been hungry after being in there for so long?"

The little nebula shook its head, its tentacles flicking in the air like halos.

She snuggled closer to him again.

"Mo Gu~~"

I'm not hungry, I just miss you~

Xia Yu was somewhat surprised.

Based on the usual amount of food consumed by this "nebula-shaped Yoshiko".

Having not eaten for more than ten hours, one should be starving by now.

It's likely that the energy we normally ingest isn't used up, but rather stored up for future evolution or something similar.

That's easy to understand.

When a Cosmog evolves into a Cosmog, its weight will increase dramatically from 0.1kg to 999.9kg.

The energy intake required in between is terrifying to even think about.

Thinking this, Xia Yu suddenly realized that he hadn't checked Little Nebula's level in a long time.

Open the Pokédex and scan.

He was surprised to find that the little guy had quietly leveled up from level 20 when he was born to level 27.

It seems that all those energy drinks I got from the Pokémon Lucky Wheel all this time weren't a waste of time.

Ye Nannan is extremely efficient.

Xia Yu played with Little Nebula and the Spirit Velvet Beast for a while, and then ordered some takeout.

The doorbell rang.

As soon as the door opened, Ye Nannan stood in the doorway, with a large, muscular Fighting-type pet, Rockbreaker, standing beside her.

Two thick arms were carrying a large bag of spiritual fruits and materials. The bag was bulging and looked quite heavy.

"Manager Xia, everything on the list has been purchased. Please check if it's correct."

As Xia Yu took the bag, he curiously examined the Rockbreaker.

"I never expected you to have a contract with a fighting-type pet."

Ye Nannan chuckled and said, "When doing experiments, I need to move equipment around, and it's not good to always bother others, so I simply contracted the Rock-Shaking Warrior to help me out~"

The Rock-Shaking Warrior remained silent as a mountain.

It seems that no one has any objection to treating it as a tool or pet.

"I see."

Xia Yu smiled and counted the spiritual materials.

After confirming that none of the key ones had been missed, he said to Ye Nannan, "Nannan, you can go back and get busy. I can handle things here myself."

Ye Nannan knew, of course, that Xia Yu was busy researching that energy cube.

Not wanting to disturb him at a time like this, he readily agreed with a "okay" and left with the Rockbreaker.

After seeing Ye Nannan off, Xia Yu closed the door.

Upon entering the living room, he took the Energy Cube Machine out of his system inventory.

Place the spirit fruits and spirit materials needed for the beautiful block into the feed chute in order, and press the button.

The machine hummed for a while.

Within minutes, several pale pink energy cubes were ejected from the outlet.

Xia Yu picked one up.

【Beautiful Cube (Excellent): Increases a Pokémon's Beauty stat by 3 points when used.】

With one 3-point item, you only need less than 60 items to reach the 170 beauty points required for evolution.

This efficiency is a little higher than he expected.

Of course, the exact number of eggs a loach can absorb in a day depends on its own physical condition.

Turn all the spirit fruits that Ye Nannan bought into beautiful cubes.

Xia Yu put them back into his system backpack along with the energy cube machine.

Having completed his task, he comfortably lay down on the sofa.

After the takeout arrived, Little Nebula and the Spirit Velvet Beast ate and drank their fill.

Then I took a nice, relaxing shower and snuggled into the soft bedding.

Pretending to be something you're not is hard work...

Silent all night.

The next day.

Xia Yu walked towards the laboratory with the beautiful cube he had worked on last night.

He had assumed that only Ye Nannan and Xu Yuanchuan would be in the lab at this time.

When they opened the door, they saw Gu Weizhong standing in front of the water vat with his hands behind his back.

His back was straight, showing no signs of fatigue typical of elderly people.

"Mr. Gu, why are you here so early?"

Xia Yu was genuinely surprised.

Gu Weizhong turned his head upon hearing this and explained jokingly, "It's been a long time since I've encountered an experiment that excites me this much. After all, it involves a completely new theory of evolution, and this old man doesn't want to miss such a great opportunity to make a name for himself in history."

Xia Yu laughed and said, "You've already made your mark on history without even needing that theory."

"Let's not talk about that."

Gu Weizhong looked at the box in Xia Yu's hand and said with concern, "Did you stay up all night to make this? You don't need to work so hard. You can stay here a little longer and finish it slowly."

Xia Yu coughed lightly, feeling guilty, too embarrassed to admit that he had actually slept very well last night.

He quickly changed the subject and handed the box of Beautiful Cubes to Gu Weizhong.

"I have successfully completed the sample. Let the Ugly Fish... cough, let the Grey Loach and the others try it."

Gu Weizhong took the box but didn't open it immediately.

Turning to Ye Nannan, he said, "Have the cafeteria send over a few breakfasts: two servings of fried liver and two bowls of soy milk. You're so young, don't ruin your stomach."

Xia Yu: "......"

Are you sure this is good for your stomach and not harmful to it?

He snapped out of his reverie and immediately waved his hand in refusal, saying, "Mr. Gu, no need, I'm not used to eating breakfast..."

Gu Weizhong frowned slightly, but did not force Xia Yu.

"Fine, then I'll have one of each."
