Free Web NovelThe originally lush green, afro-like leaves had transformed into a combination of two different hairstyles.
One style consisted of oval-shaped leaves clustered between its ears, similar to the original afro.
The other style was located on both sides of its eyes and the back of its head; calling them hair was a bit of a stretch.
They were more like ribbons.
Or rather, tentacles.
Mingxi counted them.
A total of four ribbons had split out from each cheek, while only six were at the back of its head.
These ten ribbons appeared to have no physical form, constantly fluttering erratically.
The original calyx-shaped cloak on its neck disappeared, replaced by a circle of white fluff.
Its body underwent even greater changes.
From its original plant-humanoid form, it transformed into a complex combination of insect, plant, and Ghost-type states.
Two pairs of arms were connected to its chest and abdomen.
The upper arms were entirely woven from gray-green vines; rather than arms, they more closely resembled a pair of huge, inverted triangle-shaped wings.
However, they lacked the lightness of wings; they were very thick.
It was clear at a glance that they did not possess Flight capability. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
Its true arms were beneath these 'fake wings'; they were a pair of arms almost identical to human arms, but each of its hands had six fingers, and the knuckles were longer than those of normal humans.
They looked very suitable for research.
Mingxi nodded inwardly.
Its lower body had two segments; the middle segment was round and plump, connecting to four vine legs.
The tail segment, however, was round at the front and pointed at the back, with only the front half having two vine {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} legs.
This meant that Emerald Green now had a total of six legs.
And if one looked closely, they would discover that this entire segment was non-physical.
Oh, right.
Three blooming blood-red Lycoris radiata flowers, identical to the flower on its mask, blossomed on Emerald Green’s back.
Mingxi sensed Emerald Green’s energy status.
Finally, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Excellent, it truly was an Advanced Level pet beast now!
Seeing Emerald Green's new appearance, Golden Yuanbao and the other three gathered around it, curiously looking up, down, left, and right.
“You Yan, You Yan!”
Feicui Zi turned into a big bug, cool!
“Luo Luoluo.”
The fifth one is quite handsome, but I will definitely be more handsome than you!
“Ling.”
Not bad.
“•͈ ₃ •͈ ᐝ ᐝ ᐝ ᐝ ᐝ”
Mingxi was also circling Emerald Green.
“What attribute is A-Fe’s appearance, exactly?”
She was truly confused.
From its appearance, Emerald Green seemed to possess characteristics of the Grass, Insect, and Ghost-type categories, but she always felt something wasn’t quite right.
“Emerald Green, can your tail become solid?”
Yes.
The problem lay with that last tail segment.
Ghost-type Transcendent creatures could indeed etherealize their bodies, becoming a special existence similar to ghosts, but this was merely one of their abilities.
They actually possessed physical forms; every part of their body was real flesh and blood.
However, Emerald Green’s tail segment, as well as the ten ribbons on its head, seemed more like truly ethereal existences.
The ribbons were fine; some pet beasts also had similar partial mutation situations.
Just like Little Silver Flower’s hair-tied metal ornament, it was a type of partial mutation; some were purely decorative, while others could provide a bonus effect in battle.
For example, Leigni’s lightning source tentacles.
So, partial mutations like ribbons were not uncommon, but Emerald Green’s tail was a main part of its body, making the situation completely different.
“Jin.”
As expected, Emerald Green shook its head.
Mingxi was bewildered.
Frankly, Mingxi truly couldn't comprehend this situation.
If Bai Ling wasn't ‘watching intently’ from the side, and she was also in projection mode, she would have already activated the Time Realm.
Now it was a bit inconvenient; even if others couldn't see the Time Realm, she still disliked summoning it in front of people.
Moreover, she had never encountered a projection situation before, so just in case, it was better to wait until after the event.
Mingxi hung the mask in her hand on its left ear.
The next second, Emerald Green’s left ear naturally curled up, turning into a towel roll.
Hehe.
How did Emerald Green feel more and more like a dessert?
“...Wu Cai? Wu Cai, are you alright? What exactly happened?”
Emerald Green’s successful evolution settled Mingxi’s heart, and she could finally hear the curious and puzzled voices of Zhou Fang and the others.
“Sorry, one of my pet beasts just completed its evolution.”
Mingxi didn't lie; there was no need to lie in this situation.
Hearing her answer, Zhou Fang and the others were once again greatly surprised.
“Evolution?”
“It evolved at a time like this? Is it that sudden?”
“What level of evolution is it?”
The five of Zhou Fang felt their heads buzzing; they couldn’t understand.
Is pet beast evolution that simple?
Went out to learn a skill, came back and evolved?
Could it be...
Mingxi smiled, only answering Mama’s question: “It evolved from Intermediate to Advanced Level.”
Zhou Fang and the other five became even more curious.
And they looked forward to the Skill Replication Device even more.
Just now, they were still hesitating whether to use points to purchase uses of the device, because after Wu Cai, the situation of other participants’ pet beasts learning skills was not very optimistic either.
Currently, besides Wu Cai, only “Ghost Fire Youth”’s “Abyssal Thought Fish” had succeeded twice, with his pet beasts learning one beginner-level skill and one intermediate-level skill respectively.
“Clear College Student Online Awkward Chat”’s “Long-lasting Princess” and “Summer Snow” each succeeded once, and their pet beasts both learned one beginner-level skill.
“Goddess Team”’s “Andromalius,” “The Big Tree Grew Chili Peppers”’s “Great King,” and “Male God Team”’s “Face Overlord” also succeeded once, all with beginner-level skills.
And now, 14 people still hadn't tried the Skill Replication Device.
In other words, among the previous 28 people, only 7 succeeded.
If calculated by attempts, it was 102 attempts (some people didn't buy all of them), with 12 successes.
A probability of nearly 11.8% was actually not low.
If Mingxi’s 100% success rate hadn't been there beforehand, this result would indeed have been quite good.
The problem was that with comparison, came heartache.
So, after the initial boom and the mid-term slump, everyone’s enthusiasm had already dropped significantly.
Mama, Devourer, Fengshen, and Da Diao from their Dancing Auntie Squad hadn't tried yet because their points were all zero.
“...Wu Cai, is your pet beast’s evolution at this time related to the Skill Replication Device?”
Seeing that the third point exchange channel was about to open, Mama finally couldn't help but ask the doubt in her heart.
Devourer and the other two also quickly looked at Mingxi curiously.
Mingxi, of course, knew what they were thinking.
Admitting it would undoubtedly boost their desire to spend.
Earning more money for the Sealed God Stage was helping Chu Kuangsheng, but Mingxi felt guilty about telling such a lie.
Moreover, who knew what other strange operations this team-vs-team event would have? Damaging her reputation to help the Sealed God Stage earn money, and even becoming a thorn in the side of other participants because of it.
Such a thankless task...
Even cattle and horses wouldn't do it!
