Chapter 2497 - 2497 Genius and Chimey's Plan!
2497 Genius and Chimey’s Plan!
Before Genius evolved into a fey, it had been a housekeeping beast and was meant to assist humans. This meant that the Hundred Questions Beast species’ intelligence reached that of young humans even before they evolved into feys.
After Lin Yuan evolved Genius into a fey, it began collecting all the knowledge available worldwide. It would not be a stretch to say that it was the most scholarly lifeform on earth.
As a Class 6 Creation Master, the Moon Empress possessed vast amounts of knowledge. She was a true erudite.
Yet, she had not come close to reading the same number of books that Genius had, nor had she organized the information in the books to the same degree of detail and depth as Genius.
Genius was long aware of the hopes that Lin Yuan held for it. He wanted it to become a Class 5 Creation Master.
Ever since it began walking down the Creation Master path, Lin Yuan’s hopes became Genius’ motivation. It now saw it as its duty to become a Class 5 Creation Master.
Otherwise, there would be no need for a fey like Genius to tire itself out the way it did.
Although Lin Yuan had hopes for Genius, he never forced or abused it. He never demanded that Genius spend every second working hard and increasing its power.
In fact, more often than not, Lin Yuan noticed how hard Genius was working and advised it to balance work and rest. He was always telling Genius not to push itself too hard and to always put its health first!
Each time, Genius pretended to give Lin Yuan its word before it went back to secretly working as hard as possible.
Otherwise, even if Lin Yuan provided Genius with the best resources and possessed its species’ greatest talent, it would be limited by the fact that it was just a fey.
Without the constant hard work that it had put in, it would never be able to grow to such an extent within a year. After all, knowledge was gained through accumulation.
After waking up next to Lin Yuan, Genius stretched.
Seven of its eight tails wrapped around Lin Yuan’s body, while the last one wrapped around Chimey.
Genius had evolved into a fantasy-cat-genus/fantasy-cat-species fey. Its tails existed in a state that was between tangible and intangible.
As such, Lin Yuan and Chimey could not clearly feel them.
Genius did not get up in a hurry like it usually did. Instead, it tried its best to enjoy this present warmth.
It was not very confident when it came to using the exclusive skill Tail of Fate to pray to the heavens for guidance on becoming a Class 5 Creation Master. It knew that doing so came with significant risks.
If it were lucky, it would be able to fulfill Lin Yuan’s hopes and become a Class 5 Creation Master, thereby creating history by becoming the first fey Class 5 Creation Master.
It would be hit with recoil and suffer grievous injuries if it was unlucky. Death was not out of the realm of possibilities either.
Genius had seriously considered this issue and eventually decided that it was not afraid of death. It was only afraid that it would never be able to see Chimey and Lin Yuan again after it died and that its death would bring them sadness.
Genius silently watched Chimey and Lin Yuan, and its lips curled upwards slightly. It looked extremely sentimental.
Chimey was the type that struggled to get out of bed. When it was in its nest in the Phoenix Perching Chinese Parasol Tree, it could absorb energy from the strange flames even when asleep. It usually only showed signs of getting up after Genius had been awake for almost half a day. Once it did get up, it would flap its wings a few times and scratch its head with its small claws. No part of it had the elegance of a lady.
Chimey rolled over and intended on snuggling up in Lin Yuan’s arms.
But when it saw that Genius was already awake, it flew up to Genius’ head and used its beak to comb Genius’ fur with practiced and gentle movements. Evidently, this was something that Chimey had done countless times.
Genius and Chimey had a very special relationship. Genius already had a very high intelligence when they met and always looked out for Chimey.
The two of them had become feys together. Genius had witnessed Chimey’s path of growth. As a Class 4 Creation Master, Genius could clearly sense the aura fluctuations within Chimey’s body.
It knew that if Chimey was not waiting for Lin Yuan to wake up, it could evolve its grade immediately by leaving the Spirit Lock spatial zone.
Chimey would definitely evolve to Myth Breed before Genius did.
“Genius, how long more do you think it will be before Yuan wakes up?”
Chimey directed all its questions to Genius. It believed that there was nothing that Genius did not know and that it would always be able to receive an accurate answer from it.
Genius knew Lin Yuan was sleeping to absorb the tomes from the dimensional worlds.
In the past, it took Lin Yuan almost two weeks just to absorb one book.
In response to Chimey’s question, Genius had no idea how long it would take for Lin Yuan to absorb the tomes.
Genius felt that the amount of time Lin Yuan spent sleeping did not matter. What was important was that he could accomplish this task safely and without any obstacles cropping up.
Given Lin Yuan’s current level and all that he had experienced, it was likely that Morbius was the only entity in the Spirit Lock spatial zone that could help him!
“Chimey, Yuan can plan for himself. We don’t need to worry about him! You’re about to evolve to Myth Breed anytime. Yuan has also become an A-rank spirit qi professional. You will be able to reach Suzerain/pinnacle Myth II. At that time, you will be able to transform! Don’t you have many plans for when such a time happens? At that time, you’ll be able to enjoy yourself!”
Chimey became extremely hopeful when it heard what Genius said and started to chirp loudly. It was so loud that it even woke up the Wind Speed Rapid Antelope.
Chimey hastily apologized to the Wind Speed Rapid Antelope.
The Wind Speed Rapid Antelope sent a gentle breeze over to Chimey, enveloping Chimey in comfort.
The Wind Speed Rapid Antelope dashed back to the Elemental Shellfish and began dutifully sorting through the elemental pearls.
Genius could not help but confess to itself that if not for the Wind Speed Rapid Antelope, given the speed at which resources were produced in the Spirit Lock spatial zone, it would have been filled to the brim within a few days.
The Wind Speed Rapid Antelope could manipulate wind to swiftly sort through the resources.
If Genius or Chimey had to sort the elemental pearls instead, they would not be able to match the speed at which the Elemental Shellfish produced them.
While Genius was reflecting, Chimey had already begun imagining how it would enjoy itself after transforming into human form.
It had been a Sound Bird that did not know how to sing and ended up being put up for sale. As a result, Chimey felt ashamed and inferior.
Lin Yuan was the one who helped Chimey to come out of its shell and shake off its inferiority complex. He was the one who had patiently and repeatedly taught Chimey until it managed to learn a few songs.
