When Cheng Huaijin opened his eyes the next day, he was completely dazed.
She remembers working overtime until midnight yesterday, revising half of the eighth version of the proposal for the client. She has to report to the client tomorrow afternoon, and she feels like she's going crazy.
When she opened her eyes and saw the room filled with sunlight, her first thought was—
The sun is so high, I must be late, right? Maybe the boss will fire me, so I won't have to prepare a proposal to report.
Ha ha.
It's a hellish joke, funny, yet I can't laugh at it.
Cheng Huaijin tried to get up, but found that his left arm felt numb.
Seriously? You've worked yourself to death from overtime?
She turned her head and saw a thick tuft of purple curly hair, and below that, a black egg. The egg was surrounded by purple patterns, like a little purple dress.
By the way, this is the Black Egg Beast. It transmigrated to another world and has been living there for ten years.
Why has the Black Egg Beast changed? Did it successfully level up?
Cheng Huaijin focused his consciousness into the mark on his wrist and discovered that the Black Egg Beast had undergone new changes.
Pet: Black Egg Beast (suspected mutated)
Stage: Infancy
Age: 1 year old
Rating: 5/10
Skills: Slap 5 (Fire), Immovable 5, Vine Whip 5, Poison Leaf Razor 2, Harden 5, Black Flame Meteor 2, Energy Clash (Move)
If Cheng Huaijin remembers correctly, the Black Egg Beast was originally level 3, but now it has directly leveled up 2 levels to become level 5!
But what does "suspected mutation" mean next to the name?
Cheng Huaijin pulled his left arm out from under the black egg beast, examined it carefully, and found that the beast was fast asleep and looked very healthy, which put his mind at ease.
She took out her communicator and searched for information online, but after searching for a long time, she couldn't find any useful information. The web pages she clicked on were either advertisements or phishing posts.
Suddenly remembering that the Beast Taming Forum had a help section, Cheng Huaijin anonymously posted a help request.
[Help! Does anyone know what the evolved form of Black Egg Beast looks like?]
After putting the communicator aside, Cheng Huaijin got up and washed up.
By the time she finished tidying up and picked up the communicator again, there were already replies to the post.
I know that the Black Egg Beast could evolve into Eiatos, 100 years ago.
My cousin has a Black Egg Beast, which just evolved into a Needlebeeck last week.
What's the use of the Black Egg Beast? It's a complete waste.
[Sisters in the Quit Gambling Forum, the Black Egg Beast will most likely evolve into a low-level pet, which is pretty useless.]
What's that person upstairs saying? Ayatos is useless?
[Why are you arguing? There's only one Black Egg Beast in the entire galaxy that evolved into Eiatus, and nobody knows where it is now.]
Even if there's only a one in a billion chance, it's still possible!
[Take my advice, OP, save up and buy a Zephyr or a Blazing Wolf, that's a more reliable option.]
...
Cheng Huaijin glanced at it but found nothing useful. She hesitated for a moment, then typed a message: [What's this supposedly mutated state? Does anyone know?]
She put down her phone and stared at the black egg beast with a worried expression.
This thing... I've been worrying myself sick over it, but it's just sleeping soundly, oblivious to the world around it.
Cheng Huaijin touched his arm. The wound, so deep yesterday, had healed completely today, leaving no trace. It was as if everything yesterday had been a dream…
But the Black Egg Beast has indeed changed its appearance. This should be an evolution, right? But logically, leveling up shouldn't change the pet's form. What's going on?
Countless questions swirled in Cheng Huaijin's mind. She looked at the black egg beast sleeping soundly, slapped it, and started ruffling its afro.
It feels pretty good in the hand!
"Heh, heh heh...!" The black egg beast opened its eyes, its originally black eyeballs replaced by purple, and stared at Cheng Huaijin in shock.
Why did you put a wig on me?!
Cheng Huaijin was speechless: "You evolved yourself, didn't you know? This is your own hair!"
Black Egg Beast's eyes suddenly widened, and it leaped up to the full-length mirror to admire its new form: "Heh! Heh heh heh! Heh heh!"
Oh! Look at that thick, curly hair!
Ah! Look at this mysterious purple!
Wow! Just look at this elegant pattern!
Cheng Huaijin was speechless: "Alright, please stop your scheming behavior."
"Hehe." The black egg beast blinked, indicating that it didn't know what the black old woman meant.
Cheng Huaijin didn't want to explain the story of "Wang Po selling melons" to the Black Egg Beast. She said, "That's not important. What's important is whether you remember what happened to you last night? You scared me to death."
"Hehe, hehe!"
- I remember sleeping very comfortably.
Cheng Huaijin: ...
"What do you mean by your suspected mutation status?"
"hey-hey."
-have no idea.
Cheng Huaijin: I don't need to ask you that.
"Let's go, let's go to school!"
The black egg beast has grown hair and is incredibly vain.
Cheng Huaijin walked into the classroom with a look of utter despair, ignoring everyone's gaze.
As soon as I sat down, Fang Juexia rushed over like a whirlwind: "How did it go? Did you get selected?!"
Cheng Huaijin said with a smile, "I was selected! All thanks to Black Egg!"
Fang Juexia leaned closer to the black egg beast, exclaiming in surprise, "Can a black egg beast really look like this? It's so cute!"
As everyone knows, Fang Juexia has rather peculiar tastes. For example, the Styx jellyfish she calls "Princess" looks...
However, Black Egg Beast is indeed much cuter after evolving!
(This is definitely not Cheng Huaijin's motherly affection!)
