Chapter 230: 100% Successful Skill Misfortune Easter Egg (4K)
Wu Xiaoqing's emotions came and went quickly.
She turned her head and immediately noticed the lively Hua Huo beside Zhou Lu.
"Hua Huo seems to be a little different..." Wu Xiaoqing said in thought.
"Become stronger."
"Ah, then it must have become unusually strong." Wu Xiaoqing said affirmatively.
She thought about it and summoned her own curse frog.
After the two spirit pets stood side by side for a while, Wu Xiaoqing pouted and said, "How did you train Hua Huo? Isn't this growth rate too fast?"
With the control group, Wu Xiaoqing was basically certain that the current Hua Huo was stronger than her curse frog.
This was a bit outrageous.
Although she would not devote herself to the training of spirit pets, as her biggest reliance for her own death, Wu Xiaoqing had never slackened in the training of the curse frog.
The third-level curse frog can be said to be the foundation of Wu Xiaoqing's life.
Even so, the curse frog that she had devoted her energy to cultivating for many years was not as good as Zhou Lu's Hua Huo.
You know, it has only been a few months since Fireworks evolved to the third level.
Such growth can no longer be described as terrifying.
However, Zhou Lu's strengthening is also a good thing for Wu Xiaoqing.
At least she doesn't need to worry about Zhou Lu encountering any problems when he ventures into the secret realm.
If he can't solve it with his strength, then she was helpless in the past.
However, in comparison, it is indeed a bit too hurtful.
What kind of monster's growth rate is this?
Zhou Lu also heard Wu Xiaoqing's sigh and said with a smile: "Fireworks is a little special, you know her racial skills."
"I know, so what did you do in the island secret realm? Can you make Fireworks' attributes increase so much?"
"Be a fisherman."
Well, Wu Xiaoqing can probably understand it now.
Zhou Lu took the opportunity to tell Wu Xiaoqing about his experience on Dongshan Island.
In a sense, Wu Xiaoqing has become his partner in fighting against the immortals.
"The Xinyue Li family..." Wu Xiaoqing touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
"Sister Xiaoqing, have you had any contact with their family?"
"I can't say that I have had any contact with them. A few years ago, when their quasi-divine pet was preparing to evolve into a true god, they asked the teacher for help."
The Li family was once a family of divine beasts, and they had produced divine beasts in history.
Unfortunately, their family's divine beast died unexpectedly more than 40 years ago, which directly interrupted the family's upward trend.
Fortunately, the younger generation of their family is also very powerful. Using the family's resources and accumulation, they have cultivated several quasi-divine pets in a few decades.
So although the current Li family's combat power is not as good as the divine beast period in history, it is definitely not to be underestimated.
"So I can't figure this out." Zhou Lu touched his chin and wondered, "Their family clearly has the ability to evolve their own unique spirit beasts into quasi-gods or even true gods, so why did they cultivate an immortal?"
"For such a large family, all actions have reasons and purposes." Wu Xiaoqing thought for a while, "Maybe they have sensed something. Anyway, we are all going to the New Guangdong Beast Academy, so why not investigate nearby when the time comes?"
As Wu Xiaoqing said this, she packed up almost all her things and asked the curse frog to swallow them in one gulp.
Looking at the curse frog chewing something in its mouth, Zhou Lu could already imagine the appearance of these things being covered with mucus when they were spit out again.
The next day, Wu Xiaoqing went ahead.
The New Guangdong Beast Academy was highly nervous about Wu Xiaoqing's arrival this time.
Not only did they arrange a special laboratory for Wu Xiaoqing, but it was even a stand-alone laboratory.
If you didn't know what Wu Xiaoqing did in the New Guangdong Beast Academy back then, you would even think she was an elite scholar who was valued.
But no matter what, since she had her own laboratory, Wu Xiaoqing had to set it up, so she set off early.
In comparison, Zhou Lu's schedule was not so tight.
He even had the leisure to attend the finals of the flower beauty contest.
Perhaps because of the attack that happened not long ago, there were fewer spectators at the conference.
The successive attacks have caused panic among the crowd.
The Tian family is very smart.
Even though Zhou Lu and Ye Qingyu knew that they were the masterminds behind the scenes, according to the existing clues, all the evidence pointed to Yan Gui.
Fortunately, Ye Qingyu still found many reasons to severely toss the Tian family.
But it was precisely because of this series of investigations that she became more and more certain in her conversation with Zhou Lu that the Tian family was indeed an ordinary beast family.
So, who was the "Mr. Tian" mentioned by those people in the Beast Garden Ruins?
Zhou Lu looked at the performances of various flower pets on the stage and thought in his heart.
It's a pity that he will set off for Xin Yuezhou soon, and the affairs of the Tian family can only be put aside for the time being.
Just as he was thinking, there were bursts of exclamations from all around.
Zhou Lu looked up and saw that it was Hua Huo who started to perform.
She was dressed as a moonlight rose, and the vines grafted with various flowers drew beautiful arcs in the air.
As the vines continued to twist, the patterns in the air changed like a kaleidoscope.
After her strength was greatly improved, Hua Huo's control over the vines and branches also rose to a higher level.
Zhou Lu smiled as he looked at the flowers that kept opening and closing in the air.
Hua Huo was even able to create various scrolls in the air with vines by opening and closing the flowers.
Xiao Cao Cao won the championship in the end.
Although the Flower Association wanted to be more conscientious, after all, the sponsors had given money.
But in this situation where the audience satisfaction was off the charts, it still maintained the authority of its own organization.
People have different aesthetics, and the standards for judging beauty are also different.
But some beauty can surpass all standards.
Although Hua Huo is far from reaching such a level, it has conquered most of the audience.
This is not to say that Hua Huo is much more beautiful than those carefully cultivated flower pets in terms of pure beauty.
Objectively speaking, many artificially cultivated flower pets are even more beautiful than the original Hua Huo.
But in the selection criteria of the beauty pageant, natural beauty is only one of the important scores.
If there is controversy about the appearance, then the performance is impeccable.
This is closely related to Hua Huo's strength.
In a sense, Hua Huo's victory was more of a real victory.
Hua Huo ran back happily with the crown of the beauty queen.
Xiao Cao Cao kept showing off his achievements to his master.
Although he was not the champion of the beast duel, it was also the result of his hard work.
Just when Zhou Lu was about to praise him, he heard a strange voice: "Hello, sir."
Zhou Lu looked up.
Standing in front of him was a young man holding a camera.
Zhou Lu's eyes moved away from the other's camera and fell on the school badge on his chest.
The other party was also a student of the Beast Academy, but not from Xin'an, but from Xinyue.
A student of Xinyue Beast Academy?
Zhou Lu was stunned, then smiled politely and said, "Hello."
Seeing Zhou Lu's kind expression, the young man's eyes were obviously brightened, and he immediately introduced himself attentively: "Hello sir. I am a member of the Flower Knights of Xinyue Beast Academy, Yuan Ye."
"Flower Knights?"
Is this a strange club name? It sounds like a war.
"Our club is determined to cultivate the most beautiful flower pet in the world. Are you interested in learning more?" The young man enthusiastically handed over his business card.
Zhou Lu was still confused: "So, you are looking for me..."
"We have always wanted to own a moonlight rose." The young man felt that his words seemed ambiguous, and immediately added, "But we have been looking for it in the Moon Mountain Ruins for a long time and have not found it. Now it is blocked by the pioneer army and the nursing team, so I want to buy a branch of the moonlight rose from you."
The Moon Mountain Ruins have been blocked?
Is it to investigate the matter of the old Taoist priest of the blood corpse?
Zhou Lu thought of the ramets that were still working in the swamp of the Moon Mountain Ruins.
They catch a large number of insects every day.
Although the attribute blessing provided is far less than that of the island secret realm going out to sea once, it is better in stable growth.
Originally, I wanted to find an opportunity to go in and grab some more insect traps.
Of course, Zhou Lu did not plan to leave more ramets in the Moon Mountain Ruins. He planned to use them in the island secret realm.
From a large number of fish spirit beasts, Hua Huo has learned a lot of racial skills, including the ability to survive in the sea.
Zhou Lu plans to use the method of division + insect trap to let Hua Huo arrange some automatic divisions in the sea.
Fortunately, there are more than just the Venus flytraps in Yueshan. Zhou Lu can find similar Venus flytraps in other places.
Zhou Lu suppressed his thoughts, looked at the young man in front of him, and asked: "The branches of cuttings cannot be transformed into spirit beasts. What's the use of this?"
Many plants have the ability to reproduce their own branches into new individuals.
The strength of plant spirit beasts is stronger, and the survival ability of branches is naturally stronger.
However, due to the connection of genetic information, this new individual propagated by branch cuttings has no way to develop into a spirit beast independently, and can only exist in the form of division of the body.
Zhou Lu immediately felt the problem with the young man's proposal.
It can't be said that the people of the Flower Knights really love flowers, right?
But even if it is love, the moonlight rose that cannot transform into a supernatural one is not much more beautiful than those professional varieties of flowers.
"Sorry, I don't have this plan for the time being." Thinking of this, Zhou Lu refused.
"I can pay some remuneration." The young man obviously did not give up.
This made Zhou Lu feel more confused, so he shook his head firmly.
The young man seemed to see Zhou Lu's determination, sighed and did not force it, and turned to look for the players who ranked last.
Looking at Yuan Ye who was talking to other beast masters in the distance, Zhou Lu's doubts deepened.
What exactly do they want to do?
Unfortunately, he didn't have much time to spend on this matter.
With the fireworks of high spirits, Zhou Lu returned to the dormitory without stopping.
Maybe because Zhou Lu was about to travel far away, Xiao Xi was at home these days.
"You are here." Xiao Xi saw Zhou Lu who came back and said with a smile, "The mission of Dongshan Island was completed well."
When Zhou Lu heard Xiao Xi's words, he remembered that he had accepted Xiao Xi's mission before going to the secret island.
"So where's the reward for my mission?"
"Don't worry, I won't treat you unfairly."
Xiao Xi has always been very generous about this - it's not her money anyway.
Xiao Xi's reward is also very substantial, that is, a large amount of fairy coins.
Of course, you can't ask for too much, after all, she doesn't have much.
Zhou Lu was quite satisfied with the reward for the task. If he continued to report information about Li Dongze in this way, he would get more.
"I want to exchange a skill with fairy coins." Zhou Lu said to Xiao Xi.
Xiao Xi's eyes lit up when she heard Zhou Lu's words: "It's really rare that you would exchange skills from me."
Due to the existence of the system, Zhou Lu has never lacked skill cards.
Even though the frequency of Hua Huo's tasks has decreased significantly recently, because of Wu Xiaoqing's ability to constantly commit suicide, Hua Huo can still give Zhou Lu a few cards every few days.
If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't draw a suitable skill card, Zhou Lu would not buy skill cards from Xiao Xi.
"Go ahead." Seeing that they could start business, Xiao Xi happily sat on Zhou Lu's shoulder, "What skills do you plan to buy from me?"
"Is there a skill that permanently increases the luck attribute?"
Zhou Lu asked Xiao Xi and stumped her.
"What do you want this skill for?"
But it is worthy of being a general fairy, and it understood it almost immediately.
"I understand, you plan to improve the efficiency of firework absorption, right? Hehe, it seems that you really tasted the sweetness in the island secret realm this time."
Even if Zhou Lu didn't say it, Xiao Xi saw the change of the firework at a glance, and thought of Xiao Cao who had just returned from the island secret realm not long ago, and had a rough guess about what happened in the secret realm.
"Luck is something that is difficult to improve." Xiao Xi looked at Zhou Lu deeply and said, "Skills below the third level that can change luck... no, even directly change the probability, often have to pay a great price. Can you afford this price?"
Afford the price?
Zhou Lu immediately thought of Benben.
"There is a price? That's great." As he said that, he picked up Benben, "Then find it a suitable skill that can add a lucky buff to all of us!"
Xiao Xi saw Zhou Lu's behavior, and the corner of her mouth twitched slightly.
How could she not know Zhou Lu's idea?
Pay the price?
Great!
The egg of Jiunan Candle Dragon is worried that there is not enough suffering to grow.
Xiao Xi suddenly thought of a skill, and then spread her hands: "There is a skill suitable for it, but are you sure you can afford this price?"
"Tell me more."
Xiao Xi raised her hand and summoned a skill card in front of her.
[Doomsday Easter Egg]: Class B skill card, exclusive to egg-type pets. You can choose a skill with probability for you or your teammates to activate, and change its success probability to 0 or 100% in the next 2 hours. After that, you have a 99% chance of dying immediately.
"..."
"..."
Good guy.
What a skill.
Zhou Lu took the skill card and placed it in front of Benben.
After all, it is Benben who is going to die, and whether to learn it depends on it.
Benben is actually very afraid of death, but Zhou Lu's [Recycling] can offset this instant death skill. And the suffering and growth brought by death is undoubtedly huge.
When it thought that if it grew up, it might be able to find its parents, it no longer hesitated.
Feeling the affirmative answer given by Benben, Zhou Lu immediately said: "Okay! This is the skill!"
Xiao Xi showed an incredible expression when she heard Zhou Lu's words.
But she is worthy of being a general fairy, and she was almost shocked immediately:
"Damn, you didn't learn [Recycling]?"
