After hanging up the phone, Shi Yu slept until half past four in the afternoon.
He found that after taking more supplements and eating more tonics, his sleep schedule had become a bit chaotic.
Rumble...
With a sound, Shi Yu, with an empty look in his eyes, patted his stomach.
"So hungry..."
By now, he had only eaten dinner the night before, and had skipped breakfast and lunch today.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
With an empty stomach, Shi Yu knocked on the window and shouted to Eleven and Green Silk Worm, who were still fighting below, "Take a break!"
Eleven and Green Silk Worm, who were pecking at each other, lifted their heads.
Ah, Shi Yu had finally woken up.
"We are going on a trip next month."
"You two, go to the warehouse and prepare the food you need in advance, at least a week's worth... no, half a month's worth."
"Roar!!"
"Chirp!"
The two pet beasts were stunned upon hearing about the trip, then quickly nodded.
They didn't know what a trip was or what moving was, but they knew what preparing food meant, and that was enough.
Shi Yu took out the relic bead. He had already cleaned it out and studied it preliminarily in the past few days.
The space inside was enormous, but apart from a pile of spirit stones and a pile of ice energy crystals, it was barren.
Since they were going on a long trip, Shi Yu and his companions would definitely store their luggage here.
Moreover, after arriving in the ancient capital, he wouldn't even need to look for a hotel; he could just find an uninhabited place and enter the relic bead.
However, in that case... he would definitely need to set up a house or something inside. Shi Yu decided to buy a portable house before leaving.
Apart from that, the rest of the space would remain barren for now. He wouldn't recall Eleven to the pet space; he would let it and Green Silk Worm train inside the relic bead.
Although it had been abandoned for a long time, it was still a legendary pet master's pet space, and the benefits of training inside were numerous.
"Let's go make something to eat first." Shi Yu rolled over and successfully got out of bed, then entered the kitchen.
A short while later, he left the kitchen and opened the refrigerator.
After a few seconds of silence, he closed the refrigerator and said to himself,
"I'll treat myself to a meal outside tonight."
"No, it doesn't matter whether I eat or not. The main thing is to help Green Silk Worm print out pictures of the Frost Dragon from different angles!"
"Better to check if any toy store sells ice dragon models..."
If he remembered correctly, due to the legend of the Ice Plains City, there were quite a few ice dragon figurines here!
"Ah, you really are something, Shi Yu. To go out so late for your pet, you must be very hardworking!" Shi Yu put on a face of merit.
Since he had decided to go out for a meal, Shi Yu went to check on Eleven's progress.
They were quite efficient and had finished quickly.
In the villa's refrigerated warehouse, Eleven had packed large bags of bamboo, ironheart wood, and energy crystals, while Green Silk Worm had prepared a sack of dragon whisker grass for itself.
Shi Yu was silent. Not bad, the two pets knew what they were doing and had prepared plenty of food.
"Is there anything else you need to bring?"
"Roar!" Eleven shook its head.
"Chirp!" Green Silk Worm also shook its head.
"Then we'll pack this much when we leave." Hmm, no need to buy more food later.
"Shall you continue?" Shi Yu took out the relic bead and said, "Go in there and continue fighting. I'm going out for a meal."
Shi Yu walked out of the large villa complex and took a taxi to a bustling commercial street.
The city's night was illuminated by neon lights, and countless fireflies danced in the sky, making the night scene breathtaking.
ăNameă: Firefly
ăRace Levelă: Low Extraordinary
ăRace Skillă: Luminescence
ăIntroductionă: An extraordinary creature active at night, it likes to use its ability to light the way for other creatures.
This is a relatively harmless creature with few natural enemies. The weaker ones are similar to light bulbs, while the stronger ones can emit harmful light. However, luminescence is a skill without levels. For combat, at least a perfect level is needed, like Green Silk Worm's silk.
Because of their harmlessness, fireflies can freely appear in certain areas of the city.
These creatures appearing in commercial streets, squares, and parks are more popular than mosquitoes and flies.
After spending 288 yuan on a bowl of ramen made from spirit plants, Shi Yu began walking through the commercial street, looking for the store he needed.
He first found a store that sold models of extraordinary creatures and spent 1500 yuan on a detailed Frost Dragon model.
Then, he planned to find a photo printing store to print out a few pictures he had prepared... but at that moment, Shi Yu was attracted by a teenager sitting by the street, under a street lamp and surrounded by countless fireflies.
A high school student in a school uniform was sitting by the road, painting with a brush, immersed in his own world amidst the noisy crowd. The painting in front of him depicted a scene of fireflies flying in the sky. Shi Yu glanced at it and found it quite beautiful.
The fireflies in the painting were twinkling, vivid, and lifelike.
Next to the student, there was a plant-type pet, a Colorful Mushroom, with a colorful mushroom cap. The student seemed to use the various colors of the mushroom cap as paint, dipping his brush into it whenever needed.
ăNameă: Colorful Mushroom
ăRace Levelă: Low Extraordinary
ăRace Skillă: Luminescence, Colorful Spores
ăIntroductionă: A plant that can emit light, with different colored spores having different effects. It also has a substance that can be used as a top-grade luminescent dye.
For common extraordinary creatures, there was no need to scan them with a phone; Shi Yu already knew their specific information.
Perhaps because Shi Yu had been observing for too long, the student looked up at him.
Shi Yu pointed to the painting box, which had a sign that read, "Commissioned paintings, 100 to 1000 yuan per piece."
"Can you paint a few pictures for me?"
"What do you want to paint?" the student asked in a young voice.
"Four pictures of a Frost Dragon from different angles." Shi Yu had originally planned to print them, but he changed his mind. This student's painting skills were excellent, better than those of professional artists in studios. The paintings looked so real, possibly due to the magic of the Colorful Mushroom. In any case, they looked more real than photos.
Why not have someone paint a few Frost Dragons for Green Silk Worm to study? The paintings even had special effects, so it wouldn't be too much to ask for Green Silk Worm to add some snow and wind effects to its Frost Dragon manifestation.
"Frost Dragon, sure, but it might take some time..."
"How long?"
"Three days, three days should be enough."
"Alright, do you have a phone?" Shi Yu asked.
The student shook his head.
Shi Yu: "..."
Just as poor as he used to be! It seemed that Chen Kai and his group were quite wealthy, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to start the supplement craze in Pingcheng.
"Then I'll give you the money first. I'll come back in three days to pick up the paintings." Shi Yu said.
"No, no problem, I'll start painting first." The student said, "After I finish, you can decide the price."
"Let me decide?" Shi Yu laughed, seeing that the student was confident in his work.
The young artist smiled and nodded. After a few more words, Shi Yu learned that the student was studying painting and was doing well. His dream was to become a great painter, so he had contracted the Colorful Mushroom as a pet to assist him in his art.
Not all pet masters contracted pets for combat; in this world, pets had long been integrated into various industries.
Shi Yu decided to place an order, but since the student had no phone, he had to print out the pictures for the student to reference and paid a 1000 yuan deposit.
It was not easy for the young student to work hard and support himself at such a young age, and he deserved support. If he hadn't met Lu Fuping, he might have been in the same situation, but he earned money by selling silk, while the student earned money by selling paintings...
After commissioning the four Frost Dragon paintings, Shi Yu felt sleepy.
"I'm tired again."
"Clearly, I slept all day and did nothing, how can I be tired again?"
Shi Yu found it absurd.
Alright, time to go home and not wander around anymore.
...
When Shi Yu returned home, Eleven and Green Silk Worm in the relic bead were still energetic.
Shi Yu was envious.
With nutritious food and the enhancement of the relic space, their sleep recovery was extremely fast. Even if they were exhausted, they could quickly regain their energy after a short nap, which was truly enviable.
"If only the skill book could be used on myself."
"High-speed healing, absolute sleep, these should be arranged."
Shi Yu knew that pet master talents would upgrade with the level of the pet master, and some special talents would even undergo qualitative changes.
Shi Yu was curious if the skill book could have other possibilities besides increasing the number of pages.
In theory, since there were talents like "sharing" and "fusion," humans should still have some unknown potential...
However, some people speculated that humans with such strange special talents might be the result of human and extraordinary creature hybrids...
"During the professional exam, I should be able to see various pet master talents. I wonder if I'll meet any catgirls." Shi Yu was still curious about the unknown.
However, the current priority was to continue training Eleven and Green Silk Worm.
