Chapter 65: Chapter 64: The Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm Appears
Jiaying City Pet Beast Union.
Chairman Wang was reporting on the post-disaster reconstruction work after the beast tide had ended to Chairman Zhang from the Provincial City Pet Beast Union, together with other city Pet Beast Union chairmen.
"Old Wang, I heard it was quite bad over there too."
"The situation escalated at one point. I suppose you haven’t cleaned up all the exotic beast corpses yet, have you?"
"We were invaded by the Chinese Double-Claw Crab over here."
"The taste is quite good, but after being killed, it begins to rot in less than a day, emitting a stench like decaying seafood."
A chairman with a bushy beard was complaining to Wang Jinyin.
Normally, if someone called him Old Wang, Wang Jinyin would have jumped up by now, but this time, he calmly took a sip of tea.
His lips curled slightly, looking at peace.
"Chairman Wang has long cleared up the exotic beast corpses over there."
Chairman Zhang revealed.
"Old Wang, cleaning up the exotic beast corpses must have cost a lot. Given the scale of the beast tide you faced, an urgent cleanup would surely be astronomically expensive."
"If you’re feeling upset, go ahead and cry it out. Don’t hold it in, it’s not good for your health."
"Once the beast tide breaks out."
"Those cleaning companies rush in like wolves scenting a big piece of meat."
"The prices they quote are steep."
"They all want to take a big bite out of us at the Pet Beast Union."
"But exotic beast corpses piled up like mountains on my end, and people at the Pet Beast Union were going crazy with work."
"I managed to carve out some time from my busy schedule to attend this meeting."
A middle-aged man, thin as a reed, complained and vented, his expression bitterer than eating bitter herbs.
"Haha, Chairman Feng, I didn’t spend a penny on this cleanup." At this point, Chairman Wang couldn’t help it, his mouth curled upwards so much that even AK couldn’t suppress his grin.
The other city Pet Beast Union chairmen were stunned and looked at each other through the screen.
"What’s going on here?"
"Old Wang, don’t keep us in suspense."
"Yeah, if there’s a good cleaning company, introduce them to your brother."
Chairman Wang, seeing he had set the right atmosphere, revealed that the Sunflower King helped clean up the exotic beast remains.
"Of course, the Sunflower King belongs to an enthusiastic citizen of Jiaying City, while the Tier Two Sunflower is carefully nurtured by Shen Mountain Middle School."
"If you want to rent the Sunflower King for cleaning exotic beast remains, this can’t be omitted."
Wang Jinyin made a rubbing hand motion.
"But I can guarantee as the chairman of the Jiaying City Pet Beast Union, the rate is the lowest on the market."
"It’s not easy for people to cultivate the Sunflower, so you should weigh it up yourselves."
"This can also be considered as the cost of cultivating the Sunflower."
"If you need it, contact me, and I’ll connect you."
After completing the report, Chairman Zhang didn’t hang up immediately; he had another topic to discuss with Wang Jinyin.
"During the beast tide, you reported to me that you discovered someone with a future prediction talent?"
"Was it he who predicted the imminent beast tide in Jiaying City?"
Chairman Zhang asked squinting.
"To be precise, this person contacted me initiative via email."
"However, this person was very cautious, using multi-IP pinpoint dispersal technology, and we still haven’t found his original IP."
"Without this person’s warning, we wouldn’t have found the Burrowing Rat Secret Realm so quickly and stopped the beast tide from its source."
"As for the near breakout of a beast tide due to a smuggling ship, it was my oversight."
"The Burrowing Rat Secret Realm is now under our control."
Chairman Zhang nodded: "The Burrowing Rat Secret Realm will be taken by the authorities."
"As compensation, we’ll assign you another Secret Realm."
"As for the person with the future prediction talent, try to stay close to them, and show them our goodwill."
"A future prediction talent is a super S-level talent, the authorities have already started to pay attention to this, and soon, someone will come to Jiaying City to investigate this matter."
"We must protect anyone with a super S-level talent immediately."
"He is a crucial existence capable of impacting our Flame Country’s national fate."
At this moment, the meeting room door was knocked loudly.
"Chairman Wang, Y sent an email, there’s a major situation to report."
Chairman Zhang raised an eyebrow and gestured to Wang Jinyin: "Go see what important information Y sent."
The secretary came in and handed the laptop to Wang Jinyin.
Upon seeing the email title, Wang Jinyin felt his whole body turn cold.
Cold sweat soaked his back, his pupils shrank dramatically, and his face turned pale.
The information Y revealed this time was even more shocking than the news of the beast tide outbreak.
[Professor Su Qingxian, head of the Imperial Capital Research Institute, has passed away.]
[Professor Su Qingxian had a heart attack, and did not have Rapid Heart-saving Pill on her, collapsing on Jiaying Street, Jiaying City, by the Riverside Road, at the age of sixty-five.]
"Old Wang, Old Wang."
Chairman Zhang called several times to bring Old Wang back to his senses.
"Old Wang, did Y’s message say another beast tide is breaking out somewhere?"
Old Wang smiled wryly: "I’d rather it be another beast tide outbreak."
"I’ll forward you the email Y sent for you to see."
"Still using the same private email."
"I’ve sent it over, take a look."
President Zhang was greatly shocked after seeing the email.
"Old Wang, how can you be sure this is real?"
"Professor Su Qingxian is a significant protected figure in Flame Country, how could she appear in Jiaying City."
"Hold on, let me confirm."
It seemed like President Zhang suddenly thought of something; after making a private call, he got definite news.
"Old Wang, I’ve confirmed with an insider, Y’s information is accurate."
"Professor Su will indeed be coming to Jiaying City in the coming days."
"She’s visiting Jiaying City in a personal capacity to see friends."
"But rest assured, I will report this matter, don’t feel too pressured."
"As for the Sunflower Cleaning plan, I think this scheme is quite good. We need to quickly reduce the impact of the beast tide on each city, to avoid heavy pollution and severe epidemic scenarios."
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Lingxue, who had just received the call from President Zhang, took the opportunity to inform him of her teacher Su Qingxian’s visit in three days.
At the same time, she shared her thoughts on establishing the Sunflower Cleaning Company with President Zhang.
Ye Bai never imagined that such great fortune would suddenly fall upon him.
Just now he suddenly felt the Thousand-Change Silkworm was about to break out from its cocoon.
Calculating the time, three days have passed.
It was also time for it to hatch.
Anyway, the teacher’s research institute was the most securely guarded place. Letting the Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm emerge here eased Ye Bai’s worries slightly.
Ye Bai released the two-meter-tall giant cocoon from the pet beast space.
The cocoon was shaking violently at this moment.
"I wonder if the Thousand-Change Silkworm will be mighty and domineering after evolving into the Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm, just like that Blood Gu Butterfly."
Ye Bai was full of anticipation, after all, the Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm was his first pet beast.
The stronger the Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm, the stronger Ye Bai becomes.
Soon a crack appeared in the cocoon, accompanied by a massive sound of splitting, as the Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm made its grand entrance.
It leaped out of the giant cocoon.
Its skin emitted a white jade-like luster, with large, naive eyes, and eight neat teeth along with a long red tongue.
Ye Bai covered his face
How evolved, yet not much different from before.
The two-meter-tall cocoon was just for it to live more comfortably?
Ye Bai wanted to vent his frustration.
However, after carefully observing the Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm, he finally noticed two leaf-sized wings as thin as cicada wings on its back.
But given its current size, the Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm couldn’t fly.
At this time, a great force of spiritual power spread through Ye Bai’s mind, with cold breaths pouring into his pet beast space, lighting up Ye Bai’s second socket.
This signified that Ye Bai had officially become a Tier Two Pet Beast Master.
Ye Bai blinked, at least this was somewhat comforting news.
[Name: Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm]
[Gender: Male]
[Personality: Gluttonous]
[Level: Tier Two, Level One]
[Mastered Skills: Silk Spitting (Mastery), Steel Armor (Mastery), Impact (Skilled), Clone (Skilled) (Lifebound Talent Skills): The Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm can split into two clones with physical form, controlled by it. As the skill proficiency increases, the number of clones can also increase, but splitting clones consumes its stamina.]
[Evolutionary Path 1: Five Elements Butterfly: Crystal Core of Tier Five Exotic Beast Butterfly of different attributes *1, evolve in the Five Elements Land, requires Tier Three peak strength.]
[Evolutionary Path 2: Ten Thousand Changes Butterfly: Ten Thousand Changes Stone *1, Heart of the Tier Six Insect King Butterfly *1, defeat five different attributed Tier Five Exotic Beast Butterflies.]
Sure enough, the Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm has evolutionary paths, choosing the Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm route was the right decision.
Ye Bai truly gambled correctly!
"Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm, use Clone."
Upon hearing Ye Bai’s command, the Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm shook its head, its tongue pointing to its belly.
Grumble grumble, grumble grumble.
Indeed, after three days of evolution, it was already hungry.
Now it urgently needed to replenish its strength.
Coincidentally, the dining time was missed, and major food delivery platforms were basically not accepting orders.
Ye Bai had to take out the Sunflower Honey the Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm had already craved for who knows how long.
This time, the triumphantly returning Sunflowers from the beast tide secreted quite a bit of honey.
Ye Bai took the opportunity to collect a total of six large barrels.
Among them, one barrel contained honey produced by the Sunflower King.
The Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm directly rolled up the honey with its tongue and swallowed it in large gulps.
Sunflower Honey is rich in nutrients and carries a faint floral fragrance.
The Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm drank till its belly was full and round.
Content and full, it immediately split into a similarly honest clone.
"Come out, Blood Poison Moth."
Ye Bai released the Blood Poison Moth stored in the Beast Card, intending to evaluate whether the blade arms of the Blood Poison Moth were sharper, or the defenses of the Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm clone more robust.
