Chapter 79 -79: The Third Refresh Point?
âWhereâs Ju?â
Upon waking up, Bai Yi found that Ju, who had been lying on her, was no longer there. Even the Insect Swarm and You hadnât noticed where Ju had gone.
If it wasnât for the fact that Juâs name was still listed on the panel, Bai Yi might have doubted whether she was hallucinating from a bowl of soup last night.
She had accessed the Swarm Consciousness to search once, and indeed had not located Ju, so all she could do was give up.
But isnât it normal for cats to wander off?
Especially a cat that can perform Space Transmission, disappearing in the blink of an eye is quite common.
But although she said that, Bai Yi knew that it was also because her own strength was too weak.
SighâŠ
Keeping a Fifth Tier cat as a pet, now she truly has a feline overlord.
Bai Yi shook her head helplessly, deciding to proceed with the Genetic Fusion for the giant banyan first.
According to the plan, starting from today, itâs time to fuse both Autonomous Growth and Adaptability.
The Magic Power needed for the two abilities is 800 and 900 points respectively. By nightfall at the latest, she should complete the second stage of Fusion.
[Current genes match well with the target, Fusion requires consumption of 800 Magic Power Value, do you wish to proceed with the Fusion?]
[Genetic Fusion completed, congratulations on creating a new species: Unnamed (Second Tier/Gold)]
Bai Yi reattached a name to You on the panel and checked Youâs changes through the panel.
Just like the Talent on the needle erosion insect, You has also gained the ability to obtain more Experience Points from food.
However, what was different was that this ability also significantly boosted Youâs natural growth rate.
Bai Yi purposefully accessed Youâs consciousness to feel it for a moment; it would probably only take about 5 days to push the Level to LV.30.
If it werenât for the fact that units within the territory are limited by the territoryâs Rank in terms of breakthroughs, Bai Yi felt that with Youâs current growth rate, expecting to breakthrough to the Fifth Tier within half a year was actually quite possible.
âHissâŠ
You never know, it really could happen!â
Bai Yi thought to herself after her consciousness returned.
Although You couldnât rely on Experience Points to level up like her,
Bai Yi herself, even at Full Level, could still obtain Experience Points by killing monsters; she just needed to breakthrough before it could be reflected in her actual Level.
But the Talent acquired by You yesterday also made a similar thing possible!
As long as all the excess Magic Power and nutrients are stored, and then consumed after the breakthrough to improve oneself, couldnât a similar outcome be achieved?!
This way, as long as the growth rate of her territory keeps up, the giant banyan can grow seamlessly too.
But these things canât be rushed.
âMaster, Master, take a look at this!â
Just as Bai Yi was taking her hand off the tree trunk, Nong Yiâs voice came from behind her.
Turning her head, Nong Yi was waving something in his hand, a⊠fruit?
Bai Yi suddenly remembered something and quickly ran down.
âMaster, this is the tree fruit produced by the giant tree today, it looks so strange!â
Upon closer inspection, Bai Yi directly felt the change in the tree fruit.
The original fruit of the giant banyan tree was like a purple grape enlarged to the size of an apple.
But todayâs fruit, not only was it as big as a dragon fruit, the color was also much redder.
Through the skin, one could faintly see fine red lines, like blood flowing under the fruitâs skin, as if it wasnât a tree fruit at all, but a mass of Blood Flesh.
âThis, this, this really isâŠ
So beautiful!â
â? Ă6â
Seeing the shocked faces of Zhan Yi and the others with their eyes wide open, Bai Yi was a bit puzzled.
âWhatâs wrong, isnât this beautiful? Itâs purplish with a hint of red, just look at these patterns, look at this texture!
So plump and cute!â
ââŠâ
Looking at the fruit Bai Yi held up to their faces, it was freakishly strange no matter how they looked at it. How in the world did their master find it cute?
âMaster, are you sure thereâs nothing wrong with your sense of aesthetics?â
âWhat could possibly be wrong with my taste? Just last night, I adopted an adorable kitty!
Itâs all soft and furry, although it ran off somewhere this morning, Iâll have you meet it once itâs back!
Youâll definitely find it cute too!â
Listening to Bai Yiâs description, Zhan Yi and the others couldnât help but imagine a meaty blob shaped like a cat with dark green fur all over it.
YikesâŠ
Could it be that the strange soup our master drinks every night is causing hallucinationsâŠ
âI have a feeling youâre all thinking something impolite.
You know, that kitty is of the Fifth Rank, stronger than all of our territory combined.
We must take good care of it!
Alright, get back to work, we still need to prepare for the Cycle Challenge at noon.â
Bai Yi picked up three tree fruits and waved them goodbye, then opened up the interface to properly check the data.
[Giant Banyan Tree Fruit (Second Tier/Gold): A highly nutritious fruit that can provide all the nutrients needed for a day, Magic Power recovery speed +100%, Magic Power/Superpower Value limit +10, restores 1 additional Life Value per second, duration 6 hours]
âWhat a pity, thereâs no increase in Magic Power limit, and the Life Value restoration isnât much of a deal since Iâm not going to fight anyway.
But the effect duration of the tree fruits has increased to 6 hours, that is actually quite goodâŠâ
Bai Yiâs muttering got quieter, and an impulsive thought started to surface in her mind.
The effect of the fruit is so good, what would happen if itâs used in cooking?
Just as her soup was about to be finished after a few daysâ drinking, it was time to seize the opportunity to make it again!
Hmm, better stick with soup.
Otherwise, it would be a huge loss if she passed out before finishing it.
Bai Yi casually uploaded two tree fruits to the store, and as she bit into the last one in her hand, she pondered over new soup recipes.
It turned out that tree fruits were still tree fruits, and not some kind of blood flesh amalgamation.
Although, it seemed like the flesh of the fruit had started to show signs of wrigglingâŠ
It took only a minute for Bai Yi to finish off the tree fruit, and she walked to the end of the treehouse built around Juâs body.
If all goes well, she would be able to acquire a complete electrical system from the Corpse King tonight.
According to the Corpse King, the generator could directly burn Crystal Cores as an energy source, which were no longer rare for Bai Yi at this point.
The solar cells she got from trading due to their low power couldnât support the consumption, especially since Ju blocked most of the Sunshine.
With a stable electricity supply, the signal station that had been collecting dust in her interface could finally be built.
Bai Yi used a bit of Magic Power to make Ju grow a base where the structure could be built, and she began the construction.
[You have begun building a Signal Station, consuming Bricks*100, Steel*40, Radio*1, Solar Cell*1, estimated construction time 1 hour, 59 minutes 59 seconds remaining]
But the task was far from over. To truly electrify the territory, she still needed to figure out how to design the electrical circuits.
Otherwise, it would be terrible if it got burned or electrified due to something like rainwater.
While waiting, Bai Yi moved Juâs Cat Nest into a tree hollow and started to inspect the catwalks around the treehouse, contemplating the routing of her circuits.
Time flew, and by 11 A.M., the refresh spots appeared promptly in Bai Yiâs mind as usual.
âHuh? Wait, there are three today?â
