Chapter 584: Chimey’s Mantra
As Chimey used Sunlight Rays to attack the enemy unit, if the latter had Red Thorn’s spread sea of flowers beside them, then the sea of flowers’ overall combat ability would also be improved under the increased activity of Sunlight Rays.
When Lin Yuan checked Chimey’s newly gained ability of Nirvana Light Swansong after evolving to Gold/Fantasy, he subconsciously patted his forehead with his hand.
Lin Yuan shook his head helplessly, glancing at Chimey, which was flying toward him joyfully and preparing to land on his outer ear.
It was understandable during Chimey’s evolution that it stubbornly persisted in its Sound Bird bloodline, but when had it become so reckless?
Its Nirvana Light Swansong could burn all the vitality in Chimey’s body into sunlight energy, which was equivalent to providing it with a means to exchange vitality for a means to injure through an explosion.
When used in conjunction with its Radiant Body, it could directly erupt with multiple attack tactics.
Moreover, before Chimey’s vitality-turned-sunlight energy disappeared, it would be immune to most physical and elemental damage.
After using Nirvana Light Swansong to enter Radiant Body, Chimey’s defensive ability would be greatly improved. This allowed it to deflect the enemy’s attacks and counterattack to the maximum extent.
Of course, Nirvana Light Swansong’s defensive ability did not protect from mental damage or poison.
Nevertheless, being immune to most physical and elemental damage was enough.
Lin Yuan suddenly felt that Chimey’s Bathed in Light no longer seemed useless upon seeing the Nirvana Light Swansong ability.
Its Bathed in Light could effectively supplement the Nirvana Light Swansong ability to limit the shortcomings of Chimey’s vitality to a mere wisp.
Together with the Jasmine Lily’s healing ability, this could speed up Chimey’s recovery process and very likely allow Chimey to launch a second attack in a battle.
Chimey’s Radiant Body had not undergone many changes.
Nevertheless, in Lin Yuan’s eyes, Clear Sky had changed a fair bit.
Previously, its exclusive skill, Clear Sky, did nothing more than let the dark clouds recede and clear the sky, which strongly affected water-type attacks.
However, besides clearing the sky, Clear Sky could now also evoke the rising sun.
When it was a Silver/Fantasy Breed, Chimey’s Clear Sky had only allowed the light of stars to shine in the sky when used at night.
Now, when Chimey used its exclusive skill, Clear Sky could make the entire sky bloom with sunlight, such that even if it was fighting at night, Bathed in Light could also play a role.
At the same time, Lin Yuan thought that Clear Sky seemed to have become a little special after the evolution.
True Data had shown that Clear Sky could evoke the rising sun, which was naturally impossible for Gold/Fantasy Breed feys.
Currently, Chimey could only summon daylight at night at best.
However, if it evolved to Myth Breed when it used Clear Sky, would it be able to evoke the sun at night and transform the darkness into light?
Clear Sky’s new effect of causing darkness to fade away made Lin Yuan scratch his head.
It seemed that Clear Sky could even restrain dark-type feys now.
Lin Yuan had gone through Chimey’s abilities and exclusive skills so many times that he was extremely familiar with them. Yet, their concrete effects in battle could clearly not be demonstrated in his Spirit Lock spatial zone.
If Lin Yuan let Chimey use its Nirvana Light Swansong ability now, followed by its Radiant Body, as an impact test of their attack ability in his Spirit Lock spatial zone, it would be equivalent to Lin Yuan demolishing his Spirit Lock spatial zone himself.
He felt that he couldn’t be doing things like demolishing houses. After all, he was not a husky.
Chimey flew to Lin Yuan’s outer ear and pecked at Lin Yuan’s stray strands of hair affectionately before rubbing his cheek with its little head.
When Chimey was rubbing Lin Yuan’s cheek, it saw that Genius was looking at it worriedly with bloodshot eyes, so it immediately jumped on Genius’ head.
There, Chimey used its exquisite beak to comb Genius’ fluffy fur. It then proceeded to cry out like its old tittering chatterbox self.
However, while Chimey’s previous calls were all in birdsong, they were now all in fluent Mandarin.
“Yuan! Yuan! Yuan! Genius! Genius! Genius!
“Yuan! Yuan! Yuan! Genius! Genius! Genius!”
Lin Yuan had previously already discovered that Chimey was fond of calling out six times no matter the time.
Even if Lin Yuan’s intentions were the same as Chimey’s, the latter obviously called out without using its brain.
Lin Yuan was also unable to use his spiritual energy to clearly discern the intended meaning of Chimey’s calls.
He had always taken Chimey’s six calls to be its mantra.
However, now that Chimey could speak coherently, Lin Yuan finally understood.
It turned out that the six calls that he had taken to be Chimey’s mantra were actually three calls of his name and three of Genius’.
Originally, Lin Yuan had wanted to wait and see if Chimey would still be unable to speak coherently after evolving to Fantasy III. If that happened, he had planned to coach it properly.
However, Chimey could now communicate like any other person.
Moreover, Chimey’s human voice could not be rejected by any voice-activated device.
Its human voice was not only pleasing to the ear but also brimming with spirit qi, lending it a bubbly tone.
This made anyone who heard it feel unusually at ease. A refreshing sensation would wash over the person as if they were sitting in the grass and looking up at a blue sky bathed in sunlight.
Lin Yuan extended a finger in Chimey’s direction, and the bird immediately flew toward it.
With the plumy feathers on its head scratching Lin Yuan’s palm, Chimey said, “Yuan, Yuan, Chimey had had a lot of dreams while sleeping. 80% of Chimey’s dreams were about you and Genius.”
Having said that, Chimey suddenly felt uneasy and did not continue.
It wouldn’t reveal what the other 20% of its dreams were about, even if beaten to death; they were about its own Star Web live streams.
Although Chimey had successfully evolved and ventured into uncharted territory in terms of its bloodline and evolution, Lin Yuan still felt unusually anxious whenever he thought about Chimey’s previous evolution process.
Looking at Chimey, Lin Yuan asked a question that he had always been meaning to pose, “Chimey, why do you care so much about the Sound Bird bloodline inside you?”
Upon hearing Lin Yuan’s words, Chimey subconsciously thought about one rainy evening.
Its entire body had been dirty when a young man stored it in a cardboard box and brought it home.
Back then, the young man had used a handkerchief to dry its rain-soaked feathers before beaming at it with his white teeth.
“Don’t lose heart, little buddy. Can I call you Chimey? I’ll definitely teach you a song.”
To Chimey, the young man’s encouragement had been a ray of light in its avian existence. It was also the brightest ray of light Chimey had ever seen.
Even the radiant sunlight that Chimey had released during its evolution could not compare to the dazzling light of the strength that the young man had given it.
Because that ray of light had been its salvation when Chimey had been treated as garbage after failing to evolve and being sold as an add-on due to its inability to qualify as a commodity.
This redemptive light had given Chimey a warm home in its icy-cold world.
Chimey landed on Lin Yuan’s outer ear again and whispered, “Because Chimey wants to always be able to stand on Yuan’s outer ear and sing for Yuan and Genius, just like before.
“Sing Yuan and Genius’ favorite songs.
“Sing the song that Yuan taught me over and over back then!”
