Light Spring Murmur
Chapter 137: Best Partner
A useless thing in places like the Lost Realm forbidden zone.
A useless thing in the old witch's botanical garden.
And now, in this new environment, still a useless thing.
"Ee!!!"
Ginseng Baby sat down on the ground, pondering the meaning of ginseng life once again.
The more it thought, the more frustrated it became. Thinking and thinking, it got so worked up that it fainted, tilting its head and falling over.
Eleven, Chong Chong: !!!
"Ying!" "Ji!"
Ginseng Baby's sudden fainting startled Eleven and Chong Chong, who were showing off their strength.
They quickly returned to their original sizes and ran to Ginseng Baby's side.
What... what happened?
Their intimidation didn't even touch Ginseng Baby!!!
Eleven quickly checked and found that Ginseng Baby was breathing evenly. It seemed it had just fainted from excessive mental stress.
"Ji!"
Chong Chong was relieved. Good thing it didn't die.
"Ying!"
Eleven nodded, nervously wiping its forehead.
This Ginseng Baby was just too fragile.
"Ying?"
However, Eleven was quickly stunned.
Using its super vision to observe Ginseng Baby, Eleven was surprised to find that this fellow's energy value... seemed even larger than its own.
Its energy value was even higher than that Rock Mane Giant Beast, ridiculously high.
So, was it weak, or strong...?
...
When Ginseng Baby woke up, Shi Yu was already inside the relic space.
"Woke up!"
Shi Yu sat cross-legged in front of Ginseng Baby, waving and greeting it.
Eleven and Chong Chong stood on Shi Yu's sides like left and right protectors.
Waking up, Ginseng Baby saw Eleven and Chong Chong and its eyes widened immediately.
"Ee ee ee ee ee!!!"
Ginseng Baby: I don't want to be the boss anymore, I'm just a baby!
"Uh..." Shi Yu was taken aback.
He looked at Eleven and Chong Chong. What did you guys talk about before???
"Ying?" "Ji?"
Eleven and Chong Chong looked innocent. Nothing at all.
"Forget it. Anyway, Ginseng Baby, welcome to the team!" Shi Yu said to Ginseng Baby again.
"From now on, the four of us must get along harmoniously!"
"However, I need to correct you a bit."
"You're already five years old."
"Eleven is not even two years old, and Chong Chong is not even one year old. They are the babies."
Shi Yu said seriously. Ginseng Baby was a baby, but in this team, it wasn't entirely a baby.
Eleven and Chong Chong also nodded seriously. Big Brother Ginseng Baby, please take good care of them in the future.
Ginseng Baby: (◐o◑)?
Ginseng Baby looked at Eleven and Chong Chong, who had just turned into ten-meter monsters and giant dragons, and its mouth widened.
This is one year old???
*Bang! Bang! Bang!*
Ginseng Baby started banging its head with its fists, unable to accept reality.
It felt like it hadn't woken up yet.
Eleven, Chong Chong, Shi Yu: ...
This Ginseng Baby really seemed to have a big problem.
A moment later, Ginseng Baby cried: o(╥﹏╥)o
It always felt like strange things were happening around it.
"Ee..."
At this time, Ginseng Baby nervously raised its head.
Asking Shi Yu if what he said before was true.
Could he really make it strong?
Seeing how unscientific Eleven and Chong Chong were, it felt like it could trust Shi Yu.
It also wanted to become as weird as this panda and bug that were only a few dozen centimeters tall.
"Piece of cake..."
Shi Yu smiled at Ginseng Baby and thought about whether to fulfill some of his promises now to make Ginseng Baby believe in his ability.
As long as Ginseng Baby recognized him, even before signing a contract, Ginseng Baby would obediently listen to him.
He looked at the thirteen skills in the skill index.
Skills with offensive capabilities: Harden, incompatible so he couldn't teach it; Plant Control, his constitution was too weak to teach it; Spatial Shackles, Illusionary Phantom, Thunder Palm, also incompatible...
A bit difficult...
On the other hand, Multiplication, which increased strength, could be taught.
This Multiplication...
Shi Yu looked at Ginseng Baby with a strange expression.
A Ginseng Baby that could multiply?
Even though Multiplication was a strengthening attack skill, he felt that after installing it on Ginseng Baby, it would become a strengthening tonic skill.
No, Intimidation could also be taught.
A Ginseng Baby King with Intimidation would probably be as outrageous as a Green Silkworm King with Intimidation.
Choosing between the two skills, Shi Yu chose Multiplication.
He smiled at Ginseng Baby and said, "Eleven, Multiplication."
Next to him, Eleven was confused, but still nodded obediently and immediately multiplied to become larger.
One meter, two meters, three meters, four meters... three meters, two meters, one meter, sometimes giant, sometimes small, demonstrating the Multiplication skill.
This made Ginseng Baby's mouth slightly open. This, this skill was so outrageous!!!
Remembering the ten-meter giant Eleven from before, it immediately swallowed.
This was called one year old?
Even the monarchs in the forbidden zone weren't this huge!
"This is the Multiplication skill. It can make the body gigantic. In the process of increasing size, one's own strength will increase a lot."
"Imagine, if you had such a huge size, how much would your strength increase? If your strength increased, wouldn't your combat ability increase?" Shi Yu analyzed.
Eleven and Chong Chong looked at each other. They didn't know if their combat ability would increase, but they would definitely be full.
"Ee?"
Ginseng Baby was indeed thinking according to Shi Yu's ideas. It imagined itself ten meters tall and was excited.
Ginseng Baby licked its lips: (✪▽✪)
Could it learn it?
"Normally speaking, you Ginseng Babies definitely can't learn Multiplication."
"However, who told you to meet such a powerful Beast Tamer." Shi Yu supported his forehead and laughed loudly: "Index, add points!"
As Shi Yu chose to teach Multiplication, his right hand was filled with a white halo.
At this time, seeing this familiar scene, Eleven and Chong Chong looked at Ginseng Baby, knowing that this time, they were going to add points to Ginseng Baby.
*《No pet can resist the temptation of adding points.》*
*《If there is, add it a few more times.》*
Eleven and Chong Chong had already predicted the scene where Ginseng Baby would immediately be sincerely convinced.
This temptation was much more useful than any contract.
At the moment, Ginseng Baby was still a little confused.
As Shi Yu put his adding-points hand on its head, Ginseng Baby's brain immediately went "buzz."
The white light representing the experience of the Multiplication skill flowed into Ginseng Baby's body, and its body immediately awakened all kinds of usage experiences about the Multiplication skill.
At this moment, Ginseng Baby's expression was blank.
Before it could be too confused, Shi Yu's voice came.
"Ginseng Baby, Sweet Scent, Sweet Scent skill...! Quick!!"
Ginseng Baby: ???
It didn't react for a moment.
"Ee?"
Sweet Scent?
That wouldn't work, its Sweet Scent could even knock out transcendent fierce beasts.
Shi Yu wasn't a bad guy, Ginseng Baby didn't want to harm him with Sweet Scent.
"Sweet Scent, quick!"
Shi Yu looked at the more than one hundred hours of cooldown time with sunken eyes.
At this time, reluctant to use tonics, he wanted to try Ginseng Baby's skills.
"Aww!!" "Ji!!" Eleven and Chong Chong also urged the tonic baby.
It was your turn to play, emergency food! Buck up!
"Ee!!!"
Ginseng Baby sensed something was wrong, feeling the seriousness of Shi Yu, Eleven, and Chong Chong, and was so frightened that it immediately released a sweet scent from the ginseng flower.
In an instant, a faint, transparent gas immediately filled the surroundings.
Shi Yu took a deep breath, then was immediately shocked.
Because the cooldown time was decreasing by one hour every second, getting faster and faster.
Damn, the effect was so strong, completely obliterating Hundred Flower Queen Bee Happy Water.
Wait, could this level knock out transcendent-level fierce beasts?
"Ginseng Baby, a little stronger! Haven't you eaten?"
Ginseng Baby: ༼ಢ_ಢ༽ What's going on.
Ginseng Baby looked at Shi Yu, who was frantically inhaling the Sweet Scent, not understanding what was happening, and blankly released the Sweet Scent that could relieve fatigue with all its strength.
Next to them, Eleven and Chong Chong, who had just finished training, also took a sip, then surprisingly felt very good.
The fatigue caused by the recent overload training seemed to be swept away instantly.
In the blink of an eye, the Sweet Scent released by Ginseng Baby was absorbed by Shi Yu and the others, causing Ginseng Baby to take a step back in shock.
At this time, Shi Yu was high as hell, because the mutated Ginseng Baby's Sweet Scent was really powerful.
In a short moment, his cooldown time directly became less than 8 hours. Taking a few sips of Sweet Scent was even better than eating a Divine Bean!
As expected of a Ginseng Baby of the monarch race, as expected of a Ginseng Baby with an energy value higher than Eleven.
A Sweet Scent with perfect level proficiency was probably only so-so.
The advantage of ordinary Ginseng Babies lies in their strong vitality and energy value, comparable to commander-level creatures, so they are very nourishing. Under the blessing of this Source of Life, the advantages of the mutated Ginseng Baby were even more prominent!
If Shi Yu with the skill index was the Great Void, then this Ginseng Baby was the Great Tonic.
One void and one tonic, the best partners!
"As expected of you."
"How is it, have you learned Multiplication?"
At the moment, Ginseng Baby had just reacted, but it was still a little shocked.
First, it was shocked that its full-strength Sweet Scent was directly absorbed by the three people in front of it, and they were still perfectly fine. Then, it was shocked that Shi Yu was still looking unfulfilled and extremely weak after absorbing the Sweet Scent.
Ginseng Baby felt like its world view was directly shattered.
"ಥ_ಥ Ee..." Even as a tonic, am I still useless? Why does the Beast Tamer become weaker the more he absorbs?
In the end, Ginseng Baby was shocked that the Multiplication mentioned by Shi Yu, it seemed, it had really mastered it.
Ginseng Baby was stunned, blankly choosing to use Multiplication.
In the next moment, its size continued to grow bigger and bigger.
At the same time, Ginseng Baby could also clearly feel that its power suddenly doubled.
And the cost was only that the rate of energy loss in its body became a little faster, which was negligible.
"Ee!!!" Ginseng Baby widened its eyes. It, it could actually learn Multiplication??
Feeling its powerful strength, Ginseng Baby had the illusion that it could crush roadside stones.
This human hadn't lied to it, he really could make it stronger!!!
"Ee!!!"
Ginseng Baby cried out inflatedly, looking at Shi Yu with hopeful eyes.
It seemed to have found the meaning of Ginseng life.
However, Shi Yu's next words made Ginseng Baby's heart skip a beat.
"Do you want to become stronger?"
"Do you want to understand the meaning of life? Do you want to truly... live?"
"In the future, obediently release Sweet Scent and create nutrients. You will have attack skills, you will have combat power, you will have everything."
"Combatants and support healers are not conflicting, right??"
There was light in Shi Yu's eyes. He saw that Ginseng Baby had no effect after releasing Sweet Scent once, and immediately understood that they were going to take off.
Max-level Harden, high-level skills, anyone could learn them. After contracting Ginseng Baby, adding points to super-level skills might not be a dream.
Well, after returning to Ping City, he would use Sweet Scent to max out Harden first.
At the moment, the gazes of Eleven and Chong Chong towards Ginseng Baby also flickered with hopeful light.
Our future happiness depends on you!
"..." Facing the gaze of the three fiery eyes, Ginseng Baby's expression stiffened, trembling.
Recalling the unfulfilled appearance of Shi Yu, Eleven, and Chong Chong after absorbing the Sweet Scent, it always felt like it had strayed into a wolf's den. This combat ginseng didn't seem to be so easy to be...
The price to pay might be more painful than imagined...
Ginseng Baby: ಥ_ಥ, it seemed that it could be a combatant, but it still couldn't get rid of its tonic positioning.
At this time, Shi Yu had already begun to consider another issue.
Speaking of which, should he give the newly joined Ginseng Baby a name?
