Chapter 114: Chapter 100 Super Evolution!
"Cough, let us divide the spoils of war now. Considering that I gave two Crystal Cores to Ai Lin without your permission, all these remaining ones are yours."
As he said this, Long Yi reached over and picked up the twenty small Crystal Cores, handing them to Little Zi. He used this opportunity to give his eyes a short break. He felt that if he continued to look like this, he was going to have a nosebleed.
.
When dividing the spoils, Little Zi shook her head: "I have no use for these Crystal Cores, you all should keep them instead. Originally, I had asked you to help. How can I possibly ask for anything else? Moreover, I have another small request, I hope Brother Long can grant it."
Little Zi said softly, her voice sounding without confidence, as if she did not dare to speak.
"Tell me." Long Yi asked.
"I want you to take me on your adventure!" Little Zi said, mustering up great courage in her heart before finally saying it out loud.
Adventure?
Long Yi and Ai Lin exchanged glances but did not reply immediately.
Little Zi actually understood that if she was just an ordinary little girl, there wouldn’t be any problems with going on an adventure. But as a Female Demon, taking her along would mean carrying her decaying body around. Anyone would have their reservations.
"Don’t worry Brother Long, I absolutely won’t make you do anything difficult." Little Zi said, did a few turns on the spot, found a position, and the cold in her hand converged. The initially frozen ground completely melted. Then, a sound came from underground. Very quickly, a black wooden box completely frozen in ice rose from the ground.
With the ice melting away, the box opened to reveal some gold, silver, and jewelry. With a wave of Little Zi’s hand, something flew out from a pile of gold seals, a wooden box not too big. Upon opening the box, what appeared was a crystal about the size of a fist.
Crystal Core?
Long Yi looked at Little Zi, puzzled.
"This is my body. I killed a powerful demon. That demon was strong, but its spirit was weak. I destroyed its head and took its Crystal Core. My original body has completely disappeared. As a Female Demon, I should disappear with the decay of my body. But now, I am using this Crystal Core as my body, so I can now take my body around with me. This demon must have sensed this Crystal Core and decided to attack me," Little Zi explained.
"How do you know so much?" Long Yi asked curiously.
"I don’t know, since I became a Female Demon, these mysterious knowledge entered my memory automatically, including how a Female Demon cultivates.
All this knowledge about demons seems intuitive to me." Little Zi’s expression was filled with confusion. She herself sometimes found it strange. After inexplicably becoming a Female Demon, she seemed to have become smarter, absorbing knowledge she didn’t understand before in such a thorough manner.
Long Yi grew even more intrigued. Although he had not studied Female Demons in depth, out of curiosity, he had read some books about them. The knowledge of a Female Demon should not be obtained out of nowhere. Either through learning or by someone forcefully imparting it. Right then, Little Zi seemed to have inherited memories, it was all very bizarre.
Seeing Long Yi silent, Little Zi’s face darkened. She understood that it was already very remarkable that Long Yi was having a normal conversation with her. No matter how cute she looked, in essence, she was still an Undead, a Female Demon. Who would like to have a Female Demon following them around?
However, Long Yi did not think like this. As an alien, the creatures on this planet were strange enough, a cute little female demon maid could hardly be considered the strangest. At least, compared to Yavenny, the hair-raising Elf guide, Little Zi was completely normal.
Glancing at Ai Lin, it was clear from her expression that she cared for Little Zi.
"If you like it, then come with us." Long Yi said.
"Sorry, I know it’s asking too much... eh? What? Brother Long, you agreed?" Little Zi was stunned, then her face lit up with joy.
"Yes, since you’re also bored, why not come and have some fun with us. Oh yes, Ai Lin, are there any weirdos in this world who claim to purify the world and won’t allow undead to appear?" Long Yi asked Ai Lin.
"No, no, I’ve never heard of that!" Ai Lin said happily. If Little Zi wasn’t ethereal, she would probably have picked her up in joy.
"That’s good, so what do I need to do?" Long Yi asked Little Zi.
"Brother Long, all you need to do is carry this Crystal Core with you! And I absolutely won’t be a burden to you! Although I absorb Mana to survive as a Female Demon, I absolutely won’t absorb your Mana! I will only absorb some when your Mana has already been filled and overflows. Under the influence of my ice magic, Brother Long, your skill casting success rate will increase. As long as the Crystal Core is with you, I can respond to your summons at any time, appear by your side, and help you fend off enemies. Also, I don’t need dragon language to cast spells, I can do instant-casting spells! If we can coordinate well, we can achieve surprising results!"
In order to further alleviate Long Yi’s worries, Little Zi quickly began to promote herself. She could understand the character of someone like Long Yi. People at his age with such powerful abilities must share similar characteristics. They liked to solve problems with strength and disliked beating around the bush. Strong allies would appeal to them even more.
But Long Yi just shook his head and laughed, "You’re overthinking. I asked you to follow me just so we could hang out, nothing else."
While speaking, Long Yi reached out and picked up the Crystal Core. The core was cold to the touch, and there was a wave of shyness that surged into Long Yi’s heart. Looking up, Little Zi’s face was red. Stunned, Long Yi soon realized what was happening. Holding this core was essentially the same as holding a naked little girl!
With a sense of helplessness in his heart, Long Yi thought to himself, what was there to be shy about? I was clutching the sexy body of Ai Lin, and that bothered me, but would I really get turned on by this fist-sized Core?!
At this moment, Little Zi was obviously very tired after the recent battle, consuming a lot of her Mana. As a pure energy body, casting magic meant depleting herself.
Long Yi no longer distinguished between Mana and Fighting Aura and directly infused the Crystal Core with Giant’s Power.
Little Zi, still in a state of shyness, suddenly tensed up, became flustered, and mumbled to herself, "Ah... What is this power! So powerful! So warm! So... odd..."
In the blink of an eye, Little Zi’s little face turned completely red. She curled up in mid-air, her body shaking uncontrollably.
"Are you okay? I thought this energy was more potent and would recover quickly. I’ll stop now!" Seeing Little Zi’s reaction, Long Yi’s first instinct was that he had messed up.
"No, no! Don’t... don’t stop!"
Little Zi waved her hand frantically, indicating to Long Yi not to stop. As she commanded, he continued to slowly infuse the Crystal Core with his Giant’s Power. Little Zi had curled up into a ball, but it was evident that her body was no longer semi-transparent but was almost fully solidified!
"Brother Long... more..."
Little Zi, in a somewhat confused state, mumbled. Long Yi immediately increased the infusion.
"More!"
Long Yi further increased!
"More!!"
Long Yi further increased again!
"Even more!!!"
Boom! Long Yi, seemingly letting go of his power, the crystal core in his hand shone brightly. But then, there was a crisp sound, and the Crystal Core exploded into dust!
Long Yi was stunned.
"Little Zi! Are you okay!"
Randomly scrambling in the air, Long Yi shouted loudly. However, Little Zi didn’t respond. The dust didn’t disperse or fall, but it floated slowly towards Little Zi’s curled-up body.
Whenever dust entered her body, it created ripples on her skin, clothes, and hair. Quickly, all the dust completely merged into Little Zi’s body, and she stretched out slowly.
Boom!
A streak of dazzling light accompanied by chilly air shot up into the sky, scattering a wild wind mixed with ice particles. Long Yi raised his hand to shield his face, but his finger was cut by a sharp piece of ice. As Long Yi was about to retract his hand to check it, two small cold hands suddenly grabbed Long Yi’s hand while a set of pale lips pressed against his wound. Almost simultaneously, fresh blood dyed the lips red, and the chilling air disappeared instantly. Little Zi floated in front of Long Yi, still with the cute little face, the iconic twin-tails, and the black maid’s dress.
But, she was different.
The ordinary hair accessories on her twin-tails had turned into small ice flowers, and the collar of her dress was decorated with transparent crystals. The black maid’s dress had turned dark purple, with beautiful patterns adorning the edges and crystal ornaments on the hem of the skirt.
Most notably, she was now wearing a pair of black shoes, adorned with crystal ice flowers.
"Complete Form?"
Long Yi asked with a smile.
"No, Evolution Form," Little Zi said, her big eyes filled with joy.
