Chapter 66 Hardworking Animals Running on the Ground
—Start.
The new pet egg has the same rarity as the cinnabar egg, both being blue.
The eggshell cracked, revealing the pet inside, and Chen Dixin was stunned.
The good news is that they run on land; the bad news is that they are tortoises.
[Race: Rock Turtle]
[Level: 1]
Experience points: 0/500
[HP: 200/200]
Stamina: 150/150
[Attributes: Constitution 10, Strength 6, Agility 4]
[Skill: Impact]
[Talent: Hardworking (Stamina consumption reduced by 40%, stamina recovery speed increased by 20%)]
Loyalty: 40 (It doesn't reject you.)
The newly hatched rock tortoise is only about the size of a cinnabar tortoise, roughly the size of a human head.
Pet eggs are not dimensional spaces; they contain baby animals that grow as they level up.
Of course, for pets like Zhu Sha that don't grow very large, the changes after leveling up are minimal.
The rock tortoise slowly raised its head, remaining motionless and lost in thought, exhibiting the sluggishness characteristic of most tortoises.
"Should we leave it?" Shen Dixin asked Zhu Sha for his opinion.
The patterns on the umbrella instantly lit up, and Zhu Sha waved its tentacles, conveying a sense of rejection while pointing to the turtle shell, which it had just caught yesterday.
The meaning of the cinnabar is: We agreed that I would be the only one to keep the fish that swims in the water, so why did you leave the turtle behind? I clearly saw it in the sea!
Chen Dixin choked on his words. They were both turtles, but land turtles could only swim on the surface for a while; they certainly couldn't go into the sea.
After explaining everything, Zhu Sha accepted this dazed little companion. The two of them discussed naming their pet, mainly focusing on Chen Di Xin Qi, while Zhu Sha listened.
"Hmm, I've decided on you, Yuanbao!"
Shen Dixin was very satisfied with the new name she had chosen, which meant "bringing in wealth and treasures"... such a wonderful meaning!
Yuanbao remained silent, but a subtle mental fluctuation told Shen Dixin that it had heard.
Turtles are slow-paced, so you can't rush building a bond with them, especially since Yuanbao's initial loyalty isn't high.
After choosing a name, another pet nameplate and the previously added title "We are number one" were also attached to Yuanbao.
She asked in detail and found out that Yuanbao was a purely vegetarian turtle.
Vegetables are much more expensive than goldfish at sea, but judging from its docile appearance, it shouldn't be picky about food. Feeding it scraps can save a lot of money.
Zhu Sha and Yuan Bao started chatting. Their language was incomprehensible to humans. So, do animals have a common language?
She brought a box of food to Yuanbao to eat, and Shen Dixin saw Lu Mingang coming back to put things away from afar.
The island guarded by the bear naturally had more than one diamond supply box; Lu Mingang had filled an entire backpack with all sorts of purple ingredients! Enough to make at least a dozen dishes.
After exploring, coffee and fortune were offered at a dinner party on the ship after I was invited.
"Boss, your boat is so tidy! I've filled it with planters." The coffee planter wanders around and can even dance on the open ground.
My luck is on my side. I crouch down far away, watching Zhu Sha and Yuan Bao with reddened eyes. Other people's pets are obedient and useful, but hers...
She glared at the blue owl flying overhead. This guy, not only did he run away when he saw the bear, but he also ran in the opposite direction from her! He's just a freeloader who doesn't do any work.
The four sat around a wooden box filled with food that Lu Mingang had prepared earlier, with each person sitting on a wooden box.
There is currently no space to add furniture; the tables and chairs are all made of wooden crates.
It was more like afternoon tea than a meal; the others ate casually while chatting incessantly.
Chen Dixin is different; with average attributes far exceeding those of ordinary people, she can eat six meals a day.
Only three hours had passed since the last meal, and my stomach was completely empty. I devoured the remaining food like autumn leaves being swept away by the wind, with no waste whatsoever.
She wiped her mouth and joined in.
"If you have any unopened supply crates, I can open them for you. If there's a critical hit, we'll split the extra portion 50/50."
For at least a year, the people in front of me will be my partners.
Shen Dixin showed them her talent, which was the kind of talent that needed no secret. It was completely uncontrollable and impossible to target, and it only aroused envy, jealousy and hatred in those who saw it.
Coffee immediately stood up. "I was so busy yesterday that I forgot to open the boxes! There were more than a dozen of them, I'll bring them over right now!"
She had only taken two steps when she came back, scratching her head. "Boss, I can't move so many boxes. Why don't you come and play on my boat?"
Supply boxes cannot be stored in the spatial storage or traded; they can only be physically transferred when you meet them in person.
I wholeheartedly agree with this suggestion, but unfortunately she hasn't collected enough boxes and only has a few scattered ones.
"Sister, you should have told me sooner! I'll definitely save up my suitcases next time I go to the island. No, I won't open a single one until I see you!"
The two of them, one on each side, took Chen Dixin's hand and helped her away.
Lu Mingang stayed on the ship and started cooking with his newly acquired ingredients!
She smiled helplessly. She had initially planned to go and open it, but moving things was too much trouble.
In the end, two out of the five gold supply boxes crited, three out of the eight silver supply boxes crited, and the four iron supply boxes were used to increase the number of attempts without criting.
Coffee hugged her crate of supplies, which had nearly doubled after the critical hit, with a blissful expression. Her golden supply crate, which had been hit by the critical hit, had quadrupled in size. "I will always follow in your footsteps!"
With no investment and huge profits, Chen Dixin was very happy to accept it, and some supplies that were inconvenient to take back were replaced with others on the spot.
The three said goodbye, and as soon as Chen Dixin returned, he went straight to Aladdin's lamp.
The lamp spirit emerged from the lamp like smoke, saying, "You'd better bring what I want!"
Shen Dixin handed it a bear bone. Bears are almost the strongest creatures on the island in terms of individual strength, so its leg bones would be of good quality.
The spirit looked at the bear bone over and over again, clearly trying to find fault with it, but in the end, it held its breath and put the bear bone into the smoke.
"Okay, next go find me a leg bone, and the quality can't be worse than this one!"
Its tiny eyes darted around, and it made a second request.
Shen Dixin raised an eyebrow and took out the second bear bone with a smile.
"So, is there anything else you want?"
The lamp spirit's eyes widened. "You... how do you still have more?!"
It looked visibly dejected and reluctantly uttered, "We're still missing a weapon with a power level greater than 5."
Isn't that a coincidence? The Shadow Dual Blades' strength is exactly 6, but it would be too stupid to give away your weapons for some unknown reason.
"Will you return it after you're done using it?" Shen Dixin asked.
"No, how come you have everything?!" Seeing Shen Dixin turn around to take out a knife, the lamp spirit cried out in terror, "Stop, stop, stop, benefactor, don't take it out, let's talk it over, we can return it!"
“After I finish this, I will fall into a deep sleep again, but the magic lamp is broken and it can't hold me for that long. I will die if I am exposed to the air for too long. So... come find me later, and I will return the sword to you. I want to live a little longer.”
It hurriedly added, "According to regulations, this weapon is swallowed directly; it's not that I didn't want to return it to you before."
Shen Dixin discovered the blind spot: "Don't you just sleep when you're in the magic lamp all day?"
"Of course not! I can read books, draw pictures, and play musical instruments!"
The lamp spirit pulled out a book that was slightly larger than its palm.
Shen Dixin went over and observed the miniature set of lamp spirits with great interest for a long time. Seeing the lamp spirit's anxious look, she finally stopped teasing it.
"Sure, but how late exactly? You ate two of my bear bones!"
“A month… no, I mean half a month!” The lamp spirit looked at her face and stepped back in frustration. “Fine, ten days, let me live for another ten days.”
Seeing how pitiful it was, Shen Dixin asked, "How can the magic lamp be repaired?"
"It can't be repaired; it was created from the very beginning."
Ever since discovering that his life was in grave danger, the lamp spirit's first thought was to repair the lamp, but the answers he received were always unsatisfactory.
"If there's a container with high spiritual attributes, maybe I can move there. Hmm? Like this flower! Wow, its vitality is so strong, could I have a bud to live in?"
Without being watched, the lamp spirit darted directly next to Butterfly Life, leaving a long trail of mist.
Shen Dixin then realized that the butterfly life, which was still at 99% when she was moving things in the morning, had completed its evolution.
She strode over, pushed aside the menacing lamp spirits to protect Diesheng, and checked the panel.
[Race: Butterfly]
【quality:? 】
[Status: Adult, 9 hours, 14 minutes, and 43 seconds until the next flower blooms.]
Lifespan: ?
[Item Description: A plant that has undergone subtle changes; perhaps it can give you a sweet dream.]
The butterfly-shaped plant has three branches, each bearing a flower bud. The middle branch is in full bloom, emitting a faint fragrance.
She reached out and touched the blooming petals.
【Item Name: Fallen Feather】
Item quality: ?
[Item Description: Placing this by your pillow can help you dream about the things you long for.]
Chen Dixin took a deep breath, savoring the fragrance of the butterfly. Although the child was useless, it was beautiful and smelled wonderful. Who wouldn't love it?
She looked down at the lamp spirit held in her palm. To be honest, it wasn't bad-looking. It was small, and if it were more docile, many people would probably believe it was a flower fairy.
If it is true, as it says, that only one flower bud is needed, then the impact on the butterfly's life should not be significant.
What good would it do me to save you?
The genie enthusiastically promoted himself, "I can make many things! They are all unique."
After a moment of careful consideration, I decided to leave it behind. After a busy period of time, the lamp spirit's move was completed!
I don't know how it got into such a small flower bud, but its appearance was definitely bigger than a magic lamp, so it must be some kind of magical spell.
"Now you can finally start working, right?"
Shen Dixin handed the two swords to it, and the lamp spirit happily took them and created the object before nightfall.
【Item Name: Bone Whistle】
Item Quality: Blue
[Item Description: Crafted by a lamp spirit, blowing the bone whistle allows you to control creatures with average attributes lower than your own for five minutes. Cooldown: five days.]
If I had had this when I fought the bear, I could have finished the battle in five minutes by calming my mind.
The bear's stats aren't as high as hers; the reason it's so difficult to fight is purely due to its racial traits, just like a bear with a constitution of 5 can kill a rat with a constitution of 5 in one slap.
"It's quite useful, let's make a few more."
Shen Dixin played with the bone whistle. The two leg bones were so long, yet they could only make a small whistle. She began to wonder if the lamp spirit was lying to her.
The lamp spirit smiled obsequiously and approached the flower bud step by step.
“My benefactor, we need to rest after we finish this, right? This good stuff didn’t come out of thin air. I usually need to rest for a month when I live in the magic lamp. I’ll be back after a week of rest. If you need anything, just tap the flower bud.”
Shen Dixin chuckled, but didn't pay much attention. Once she got the bone whistle, she knew that it couldn't be mass-produced. If the lamp spirit could maintain this quality, it wouldn't be a loss.
