Shi Yu was tired.

Not only because he had been working overtime for a week in a row, but also because there was no end in sight for his skill proficiency.

This skill proficiency, it took one time to get started, two times to become proficient, four times to become proficient, it has been more than ten times, why is it still not perfect?

​​Shi Yu suspected that the skill illustration was messing with his mentality.

Using mathematical thinking, he could not guess what the illustration was thinking.

Otherwise, logically speaking, proficiency + 4 should be perfect, which are different powers of 2.

"Perfect-level proficiency doesn't seem to be as simple as I thought..."

After thinking about it carefully, Shi Yu accepted it.

After all, from entry to proficiency, as long as the pet practices hard, it is an achievement that can be achieved regardless of qualifications.

To achieve perfect proficiency is a realm that some pets, even pets of beastmasters, may never reach in their lifetime.

It's not the same dimension.

Let's try again!

With the mentality of giving it a try, Shi Yu tapped the green cottonworm twice more.

Then, surprises often come too suddenly.

"Huh..."

In Shi Yu's hand, the green cottonworm first performed a growth transformation in a daze, and then a cry came into Shi Yu's ears.

As a pet of the insect type, it is normal for the green cottonworm to grow fast. After being taught silk twice, it awakened to level ten, and Shi Yu was not surprised at all.

However, in addition to this, the message that the insect conveyed to Shi Yu was not simple.

"What, the silk has finally changed again?"

Shi Yu's hand trembled, and he almost threw the silk out.

After Silk (Mastery +12), it finally reached Silk (Perfection).

"Huh, Huh!" The green sponge nodded brightly, and then jumped down from Shi Yu's palm.

Then, it looked at a large stone used for decoration in the yard.

Whoosh!!

The green sponge spits out silk, not just one strand, but more than a dozen strands entangled together, so it is particularly thick, about the size of a thick straw.

Next, the white silk and rays shot towards the stone like a gunshot, and with a "click", a crack appeared on this ordinary stone.

Shi Yu was about to say "That's it?", it was not as powerful as the entry-level hardening, but thinking that it was just a worm, he couldn't help but say with relief: "Well done."

Today, the silk finally entered the perfect state, and the worm has taken another step towards evolution!

[Name]: Green Cottonworm

[Growth Level]: Awakening Level 10

[Racial Skills]: Silk (Perfect)

This should be the current attribute of the Green Cottonworm.

"Huh, huh!" At this moment, the Green Cottonworm also cried happily after receiving Shi Yu's praise.

At this time, Shi Yu finally realized that something was wrong.

He looked at the green sponge worm, and after a long time of reaction, he realized that he seemed to be able to communicate with it more normally.

At the beginning, the green sponge worm only had instincts, and Shi Yu had no way to communicate with it.

Later, after Shi Yu raised it for a while, and its growth level was raised, the two could communicate simply through telepathy.

However, the communication at that time was limited to some ordinary commands, and the IQ of the green sponge worm at that time might be similar to that of pet cats and dogs, or even slightly worse.

But now, with the green sponge worm reaching the tenth level of awakening and the silk reaching the perfect level, Shi Yu can almost clearly feel its emotions.

Also, it started to communicate with Shi Yu like a child who could think independently.

It may not be as smart as a mammal like the iron-eating beast, but Shi Yu was still happy to have reached this point.

The level 10 green caterpillars in the breeding base were not so smart. It seemed that it was the credit of the perfect-level race skills.

"It seems that on the basis of the proficient level, it takes another 12 teachings. If you start from scratch, it means a total of 16 teachings to reach the perfect level!" Shi

Yu looked in the direction of the backyard training ground. In other words, if Eleven's hardening skill is taught three more times, it can also reach the perfect level, right?

Maybe two times will be enough. After all, Eleven's own training is also very hard, and he will definitely increase his proficiency.

But after thinking about it, Shi Yu judged that it should still take three times. After all, perfect-level proficiency requires many years of hard training. Although Eleven worked very hard, he had only trained for a month.

Compared with the huge experience bar of perfect-level skills, its hard training, rather than increasing proficiency, is more like perfectly transforming the points added by Shi Yu into its own things, rather than relying entirely on external forces.

"I was already impatient to stay at home and planned to challenge the ruins again tomorrow. Now it seems that I should wait until the hardening is also improved to the perfect level before going."

Shi Yu decided after consideration, and then he looked at the little bug on the ground.

He teased the little bug with a fresh look on his face. In the past, the green cotton bug could not understand the meaning of too many of his words. Can it now?

"Chong Chong, come here."

Shi Yu called Chong Chong, and Chong Chong immediately crawled over.

"There are a number of chickens and rabbits in the same cage. They all have one head, chickens have two legs, and rabbits have four legs. Counting from the top, there are 35 heads, and counting from the bottom, there are 94 legs. How many chickens and rabbits are there in the cage?"

Green Sponge Bug: ???

Green Sponge Bug looked at Shi Yu blankly.

"Forget it, I don't know how to do this either, it's a bit difficult for you."

"Okay, next question, dragon beard grass, bamboo leaves, persimmon leaves, cabbage leaves, which one do you like to eat?"

"Huh!"

The green sponge caterpillar was not confused when asked this.

It said that it liked them all.

If it had to choose one, it would choose the one that gave more.

If it gave more in general, it would choose the dragon whisker grass.

Shi Yu nodded and said, okay, his IQ is acceptable for now, but he will become a great man if he is trained in the future.

"Next question, who is nicer to you, me or Eleven?"

The green sponge caterpillar fell into deep thought.

It recalled that the iron-eating beast disturbed its sleep every day and dragged it to train together, which was too torturous for the caterpillar.

In comparison, Shi Yu not only built a house for himself, but also prepared food for himself every day. The difference is obvious at a glance!

"Huh!"

Hello.

The green sponge caterpillar confirmed.

"You are a teachable boy."

"The last question is, why do you like to sleep so much?"

Shi Yu was actually quite puzzled. He had done a relatively in-depth study of caterpillars. After all, he had been dealing with caterpillars almost every day during the three months he was an intern breeder.

Normal caterpillars are not so sleepy.

Sleeping...?

The caterpillar crawled in a circle, as if thinking about how to explain it.

But it didn't need to explain it too clearly, because Shi Yu had telepathy, so Shi Yu could probably figure it out.

"Because... you can enter another world... you don't have to worry about food... you don't have to worry about avoiding natural enemies... you can be free... in any posture you like... in any place...?"

After repeating it, Shi Yu was stunned and said, "You mean dreaming?"

"It should be dreaming..." Shi Yu was wondering why this insect was so sleepy. It turns out that it doesn't like to sleep, but likes to dream during the day.

But can insect pets like sponges also dream?

Shi Yu knew that some animals could dream in his previous life, but most animals could not dream. In this world, all creatures have evolved to this level, and it doesn't seem strange for a worm to dream.

Shi Yu stretched out his hand, and the sponge caterpillar slowly climbed up.

"Do you want me to give you a name?"

"Forget it, I'm bad at naming, just keep calling you Chong Chong."

From letting Eleven use the name Eleven directly, we can see how bad Shi Yu is at naming. When naming Green Sponge Bug, he was afraid that he would come up with weird names like "Shi Er", "Xiao Qing" and "Xiao Lu".

Chong Chong is fine, with a lot of words, so cute.

"Huh..." Green Sponge Bug was speechless.

"Forget it, these are not the most important things."

Now that Green Sponge Bug can communicate normally, Shi Yu suddenly feels relieved, because he finally doesn't have to deal with Green Sponge Bug's evolutionary route alone. Now

, it has also reached the tenth level of awakening. The next stage of its skills is superb. Before its short life ends, it must quickly transform and evolve.

Under the condition of ensuring sufficient potential, he decided to give the caterpillar some autonomy to choose and let it eliminate some options for itself.

The caterpillar will have the final say on which category it wants to evolve into, and then he will find a way, so that it will not be like a headless fly that wants everything.

Shi Yu took out his mobile phone, then put the caterpillar on his shoulder, and opened a page under its blank expression.

"I will introduce you to the various attributes first... Fill in the first, second, and third wishes, and we will see the situation in the end."
