Chapter 109 – Cat Dad’s New Evolution Materials

Shepherd, Magdalene, and Andrew stood on the fishing boat and gazed at the golden beacon, admiring the strange phenomenon. The three NPCs also stared at the light in astonishment. Everybody forgot about time and what they were supposed to do until they heard the high-pitched voice of their master.

“MOTHERHUMPER, MUNYA!”

Shepherd came back to his senses. He smiled and laughed before he shook his head.

The group drove the boat to the damaged frigate. Everyone climbed the rope ladder and got on board the ship.

.

The beacon of light and the global announcement got the attention of many high-leveled players in the area. Many NPCs also noticed the beam of light, but they thought that it was a miracle of their local gods.

Survivors of Xuan Town knelt and prayed to Pangu. NPCs in the neighboring town also did the same, but they weren’t as fervent as the Xuan’s townsmen.

Far away from the golden beacon was a hill next to Yeet City. A group of players stopped hunting monsters and turned to the beacon of light.

Among them, Liu Bei looked at the system notification and burst into laughter when he noticed his friend’s name on the list.

“Hahaha! You see that? That’s Xiaomao, my classmate!”

Liu Bei and his guild mates stood on the top of a hill near Yeet City, watching the beacon of light from several kilometers away. He laughed and pulled one of his lackeys to brag about Xiaomao.

His mouth kept running, talking about Xiaomao’s stoic behavior in class and how he rejected all women in the school.

One of Liu Bei’s guild mates, Jian Yong, was the eldest son of a conglomerate entrepreneur millionaire. He got into the game as early as Absolute Halal, but his wealth was still inferior to oil tycoon families.

His in-game character was an Ultra-Rare High-Elf Archmage, who was well-versed in all elemental magic. He could also summon elemental sprites, which were the same species as the flame sprites at Bit City.

Because of the High-Elf Race’s avatar, Jian Yong’s character was refined and beautiful. He was also well-respected as the strongest fighter in the Jian Conglomerate Guild.

Jian Yong had seen Xiaomao’s name in the auction. Now that Xiaomao made himself famous, he was curious.

“From your story, is he strong in real life?”

“He’s very strong! He took down two guys from BT Public School several days ago. Too bad he is an idiot. He doesn’t want to mingle with me.”

“More like he’s smarter than you. A scholar chooses his friends, don’t you know?”

“Hey!”

After toying with his friend, Jian Yong cupped his chin and pondered.

“What’s his level?”

“I don’t know. He started the game later than mine, so he might be under 100, maybe?”

“Are you sure? The game just gave him a level-700 gacha ticket. That means the monster that his party took down was at least level 700, you know? Also, I don’t think a low-level character can wander around Xuan City. That’s the area is infested with level 100 monsters and beasts. His level must be over 100 to be in that area.”

“Bah, I hate overthinking,” Liu Bei bit his lower lips and stopped looking at the pillar of light. He turned to his teammates, who were fighting against a level-150 mandragora. Because of his boredom, he joined the fight.

Jian Yong glanced at his friend and sneered.

‘This idiot doesn’t have a clue. Xiaomao must be using a custom-made capsule, and he should have already learned about the game’s secrets. Welp, I’d rather make friends with that guy instead of this fool.’

Meanwhile, Liu Bei fantasized about how he could exploit Xiaomao.

‘I know where he lives, and my father’s men know the police superintendent. He may be exceptional in-game, but he’s helpless in real life! I can make use of this.’

Both men had their own plans, but none of them was aware of what Xiaomao was doing.

.

On the frigate’s main deck, Xiaomao stared at the troublesome items. The two gacha tickets glittered, tempting Xiaomao to use them.

“What’s the point of getting two level-700 items when I can’t use them, munya?!”

Xiaomao was annoyed. He couldn’t store the tickets in the warehouse, and he couldn’t get rid of them. The only way to remove the beacon was to use both of them and store whatever items from the gacha tickets in the warehouse.

As Xiaomao didn’t know what to do with them, he pressed the ticket icon and used one of them to test his luck.

DING

<Your [?????? Instinct] skill has influenced the Level-700 Legendary Gacha Ticket.>

<You can select any legendary item from the list.>

“Hah?”

A massive screen appeared before Xiaomao, showing the long list of level-700 items, gears, ingredients, and every legendary item below the level-700 restrictions. Even the crossbow that Xiaomao used in the Gnoll Dungeon was among them.

Xiaomao didn’t expect this turn of events. He thought that the gacha ticket would randomize an item for him automatically.

Learning that he could pick any item, Xiaomao was excited. Without hesitation, he searched for a certain item, which was necessary for his race evolution.

Karmic Soul Stone

The screen changed and highlighted the item!

Xiaomao stared at the red diamond icon in a daze. His tentacles moved by instinct, pressing the confirm button.

DING

<You have obtained Karmic Soul Stone x 1!>

Xiaomao hadn’t finished. He used another ticket right away.

The same system prompt appeared, telling Xiaomao that he could choose any item from the list.

Once again, Xiaomao ignored all items and searched for a specific item. This time, he looked for Akashic Memory Card.

DING

The menu dimmed and highlighted a thumb drive icon among the ten thousand items.

Without batting an eye, Xiaomao slammed the system panel in front of him and repeatedly pressed the thumb drive icon and the confirm button like a bongo cat.

DING

<You have obtained Akashic Memory Card x 1!>

“…”

The beacon of light faded. However, Xiaomao failed to get rid of the legendary items on him. On the contrary, the two new items got stuck on him like Karma Fish, which was always stuck in his inventory.

Xiaomao was speechless. He gazed at the icons of the two new items in disbelief.

‘I have three of the seven materials, and I have all the legendary pieces before the ultra-rare items. My character is probably beyond broken now.’

The catopus opened his status menu and inventory menu at the same time, checking the description of the two evolution items.

.
