Chapter 2: Evolution
Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL
Cash-strapped Adams had given up on the idea of going to the pet market and buying pets.
The bee in front of him had become his primary target.
5
Under the circumstances, the cost of capturing the bee would be zero. There would be no cost at all.
At most, it would just swell up into a big lump.
2
Adams said yes, and he began to prepare for the capture.
1
The bee was extremely quick-witted, and it was tiny and fast.
6
It was difficult to capture it.
The system had said that one had to capture it alive.
Adams had locked the doors and windows of the room so that it couldn’t fly out.
But even so, it was difficult to catch it.
Adams simply sat down and silently watched it fly up and down.
The little bee crashed into the door, the window, the curtains…
Even though it was dizzy from the impact and was flying unsteadily, it still struggled to take off again.
This perseverance almost touched Adams.
5
“So it’s decided to be you!”
1
Adams became even more determined to make the little bee his number one general.
Seeing that the little bee was flying slower and slower, Adams bent his body and approached it with quiet steps.
Then.
He clapped his hands together:
7
“Pu!”
Air was expelled from the palms of his hands, but Adams felt that there was nothing in his hands.
1
As expected, the little bee that was flying slowly suddenly sped up and dodged Adams’ attack.
5
Adams felt a headache coming on. This little thing was really hard to catch.
2
Could it be that he had to wait until its strength was exhausted and it couldn’t fly anymore before he could catch it?
That would take too long!
Looking at the little bee’s energetic figure, Adams was speechless.
At this moment, Adams glanced around and suddenly saw a small jar of honey next to the refrigerator.
He had forgotten to put it in the refrigerator when he was drinking coffee.
3
“I have an idea!”
Adams smiled and walked to the refrigerator to get the honey.
He opened the jar and poured the honey onto the plate.
The bright yellow honey with a gemstone luster coiled up into a small hill on the plate.
Adams placed the plate of honey near the little bee. Then, he quietly retreated and hid.
“Little bee, you must be hungry after flying for so long. Hurry up and eat…”
7
Adams looked at the little bee with a passionate gaze and muttered something.
As expected, the little bee that had been flying randomly for a long time finally flew lower and lower. Then, it got closer and closer to the plate of honey.
The little thing first circled around the honey cautiously, then it couldn’t resist the temptation and slowly landed on the honey.
While the little thing was eating, Adams slowly approached with a glass cup.
Then he pounced, and the cup was pulled down, holding the little bee.
[Ding — Congratulations to the host for capturing a bee. Do you want to keep it as a pet?]
The moment Adams successfully captured it, the system’s voice rang out at the same time.
“Yes!”
Adams had spent so much effort to capture it, so there was no hesitation at all.
Receiving Adams’ affirmative answer, the system’s voice rang out again:
[Successful acquisition. Host, please name your pet.]
“Name it? The sense of ritual is quite sufficient.”
Adams rubbed his chin and began to think of a name for his first pet.
“Let’s call it Bumblebee!”
17
Adams had a flash of inspiration and gave the little thing a powerful name.
4
After giving it a name, an attribute panel appeared in front of Adams:
[Bumblebee]
Master: Adams
Serial number: 001
6
Combat Power: 1
Evolvable: All organs
…
Looking at this attribute, Adams couldn’t help but sigh.
As expected, there was no good bargain, not to mention this was free!
1
Bumblebee’s combat power was only 1!
This was f*cking amazing!
However, Adams quickly calmed down because everything could evolve.
He asked the system directly:
“How do I evolve it?”
The system immediately replied:
[Reporting to host, evolution can be divided into two types of evolution.]
[First, random evolution.]
[Second, designated evolution.]
[Random evolution means that any part or organ will randomly evolve, so the price will be cheaper.]
[Designated evolution means that the host will choose the direction of evolution, so the price will be more expensive.]
[Also, evolution will be divided into levels.]
[D-Grade evolution is the weakest, SSS-Grade evolution is the strongest.]
1
[Any SSS-Grade evolution, even if it’s a bee, will become an extremely powerful existence.]
3
Adams nodded after hearing the system’s answer, indicating that he understood.
Then, he asked impatiently:
“How much does Bumblebee need to evolve now?”
The system immediately replied:
[D-rank random evolution: $10,000 USD, evolution of choice: Price doubled!]
7
[C-rank random evolution: $100,000 USD, evolution of choice: Price doubled!]
[B-rank random evolution: $1 million USD, evolution of choice: Price doubled!]
[A-rank random evolution: $5 million USD, evolution of choice: Price tripled!]
1
[S-rank random evolution: 10 million USD, evolution by choice: 3 times price!]
[SS-rank random evolution: Requires completion of special mission!]
[SSS-rank random evolution: Requires completion of special mission!]
