Chapter 698: Chapter 494: Dual Fourth Evolutions, Part 2
[What are you looking at!]
Number 2 seemed to bask in this kind of comment, directly split itself down the middle as a performance for Liu Jisheng.
"It’s quite unique, haha."
Liu Jisheng didn’t expect this summoned beast to actually scold people, he awkwardly smiled.
What’s with the head splitting open, it feels like this junior’s summoned beast is a bit eccentric?
[Caocao!]
The straw man eagerly with both hands pried open its stomach.
Took out a bottle of cola and handed it to the biochemist, planning to recruit him as his underling.
"Uh."
He realized that this summoned beast seemed a bit eccentric too.
"Senior, then I’ll start now."
Li Pu had already walked over to the ugly little wolf’s summoning array.
With this senior holding down the fort, even if an S-class magical beast really came out, he wouldn’t be afraid.
First, activate the elemental reorganization instrument, letting the ugly little wolf lie inside.
[Woof woof woof!]
The ugly little wolf, knowing it was about to become stronger again, eagerly trotted inside.
[Caicai!]
Upon seeing the little wolf’s shape gradually blur under the effect of the instrument, the rainbow fox seemed a bit anxious.
"It’s okay, when you transform into a rainbow, isn’t it similar."
Liu Jisheng patted the rainbow fox’s head.
However, upon seeing the elemental reorganization instrument start, he remembered its purpose.
He didn’t expect that ugly little wolf was actually an elemental type summoned beast?
But why would an elemental type summoned beast need to use dragon materials for rebirth?
This made him a bit confused, there couldn’t be such a thing as a dragon element, right?
The elemental reorganization required some time, so Li Pu turned his attention to BoBo’s side.
Got to say, the rainbow fox did a great job, the rebirth materials were all laid out neatly without a single mistake.
If it were his own guys arranging it, he would certainly have to correct many spots himself.
Since the setup was flawless, it was time to start working on BoBo.
Li Pu knew beforehand about the two rebirth plans for this time.
So the more you do, the easier it becomes. After a few rebirths, he was pretty much self-taught.
He made some minor tweaks to fit BoBo on top of the searched plan.
Void worms are big guys that are like worms.
To be able to forage in the void, they have very strong shells.
Each void worm is actually very soft at birth and isn’t wrapped by a shell.
They live in a certain safe, fixed space until their shell grows to over 30% coverage, then they enter the void.
The only way to grow their shell, to be honest, is quite cruel or rather survival of the fittest.
That is, they must devour their fellow void worms, otherwise, the shell won’t grow.
After entering the void, void worms need to continue devouring their kind in the void to keep increasing the shell coverage.
In other words, this complete void worm shell in front of them is actually stacked up by the lives of countless void worms.
Li Pu let BoBo crawl inside this croissant-shaped shell, size was about right, there was even a bit of space for it to move and turn over.
"Hold on, junior."
But just as he was about to place the shell containing BoBo into the rebirth array, Liu Jisheng spoke up.
To be honest, he didn’t know the connection between a kangaroo and a void worm, nor why the other party chose this kind of rebirth plan.
But when it comes to void-based materials, he thought he had some say.
"Your method might drastically reduce the shell’s absorption rate."
"If you can make the shell fit snugly on it, the result would be better."
So Liu Jisheng offered his suggestion.
"But..."
Hearing this, Li Pu looked troubled.
He actually understood this rationale.
However, the void worm shell was hard, it would shatter if forcibly squeezed.
How could it directly adhere to BoBo’s body?
"No worries, I have something suitable for your situation."
Liu Jisheng said as he took out a bottle of spray.
"Insect Shell Softener, it can temporarily soften insect shells."
"Thereby achieving a shaping effect, but it only works on lifeless insect shells."
"Just spray once in each area."
With that, he tossed it over.
"Thank you, senior."
Li Pu had truly never heard of such a thing: "How much does it cost? I’ll pay you."
"No need, it’s just leftovers from my past rebirths."
Liu Jisheng waved it off.
Seeing him say this, Li Pu didn’t fuss and simply sprayed the shell housing BoBo thoroughly.
In seconds after spraying, the originally hard, puffed-up shell deflated like a deflating balloon, nearly adhering completely to BoBo’s body.
It looked like a void kangaroo.
[Nom nom nom!]
BoBo immediately reached out to Li Pu once its mouth was freed.
Without golden carrots, it wouldn’t undergo rebirth.
Luckily, Li Pu was prepared and stuffed a carrot inside.
[Nom thanks nom!]
BoBo took the carrot, satisfied, and jumped into the rebirth array.
The rebirths on both sides finally officially began.
"Phew..."
After a lengthy bustle, Li Pu sat down next to Liu Jisheng.
"From now on, it’s just a matter of time."
Liu Jisheng smiled and looked at him, suddenly saying, "Pure waiting can be a bit dull, junior, do you play cards, cube cards?"
"..."
Li Pu gave him a deep look and nodded, "I know a little."
...
Two hours later, for the Nth time, Liu Jisheng handed a lump of Crystal Coin to Li Pu.
"Senior, maybe we should stop."
Li Pu felt a bit embarrassed to keep winning.
This guy not only had a big card addiction but also insisted on some wager.
100,000 Crystal Coins, this was his total winnings.
Seeing the other side’s persistent energy, it seemed they could keep playing until their pockets were empty.
He really should introduce him to Li Fan for some lessons.
"I don’t get it, I don’t get it."
At this moment, Liu Jisheng wore a wry smile, "Didn’t you say you were diamond rank?"
"Then why, even though I am also diamond rank, haven’t I won a single match against you?"
He had never played so many consecutive frustrating games.
Even against the school’s cube cards teacher, he hadn’t experienced this kind of result.
The opponent’s deck was unique, tactical thinking was unique, even the off-table tactics...
By the later games, he didn’t dare to talk to him, otherwise, speaking up would inexplicably fall into his trap.
"Not all diamond ranks are the same, sorry."
To this, Li Pu just apologized.
If he wanted to, he probably would have been in the master rank a long time ago.
The recent opportunities in the cube cards metaverse greatly boosted his card playing abilities.
Firstly, because those who have been through the metaverse can hold the same card limitlessly, and secondly, they can draw infinitely.
These two points greatly increased the depth of his card pool.
He could essentially no longer lose to any master rank card player.
Of course, for now, he still couldn’t beat Li Fan and Xiu Cangjia.
"Junior, you can’t just call this ’knowing a little’..."
Thinking back to the start two hours ago, Liu Jisheng felt thoroughly deceived.
He glanced at Number 2, filled with resentment.
Because shortly after the game started, that big iron head joined as a spectator.
During which, it would comment on both sides’ plays, sometimes hitting the nail on the head, sometimes misleading like a tricky cheer or mockery.
It slighted his focus quite a bit.
The most crucial part was that Li Pu actually conversed with it, this human and iron head dialogue, sometimes true, sometimes false, really tormented him.
"Cheating is not allowed on the card table, but lying is."
To this, Li Pu simply quoted a saying from his teacher.
"Forget it, forget it, not playing anymore."
In the end, Liu Jisheng waved it off, deciding to stop.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to play, but he couldn’t afford to lose anymore.
The pitiable Crystal Coins on him were basically all lost.
Buzz!!!
Then, suddenly at the other end of the training ground, a space rift ripped open.
A lot of sharp mixed breaths shot out from the rift like needles.
Li Pu and Liu Jisheng exchanged glances and both stood up.
Sure enough, it’s here.
