Rebirth of a Portable Space: Transforming My Hometown

Chapter 240 Moongreen Vine Demon and Moonlight Coal Beast

Unbeknownst to Yufei, she had arrived at the plant with the unlocked secondary genes after being reminded by Xiaojun.

In front of the Moongreen Vine Demon plant that Stink had mentioned, Yufei carefully observed it from all angles.

"Xiao Jun, is it really a plant with unlocked level two genes? I don't see anything special about it."

Furthermore, my smart glasses show that it doesn't contain plant essences.

"Hmm! Xiaoyufei, are you questioning my professionalism? I can feel the vibrant energy within this plant; there's no mistake."

"How could that be? I'd never question you, no matter who I question," Yufei said obsequiously, expressing her trust in Xiaojun.

"I think it might be related to this. I saw on the smart glasses that the Moongreen Vine Demon was displayed with parentheses after it, and above it was the image of someone not bathed in moonlight."

I was just wondering if seeing the moonlight at night would activate its energy, causing it to transform into a plant spirit?

"Yes, very likely."

Xiao Jun pondered and expressed her opinion to Yu Fei.

"Then let's find something to eat nearby, start a fire, cook, and wait for it to mature. A mutated plant with unlocked level 2 genes can produce about level 3 to 4 plant spirits, so it's worth the wait."

Yufei, who was overjoyed, and Stink, who was expecting the opposite of what they had, chose to stay instead.

They lit a fire nearby and ate, waiting for night to fall.

Stink sighed. He couldn't interfere with what happened during the game, and as someone from Chishui, it was actually something to be happy about.

He knew this young girl; she had made a name for herself during the Masters tournament with her outstanding performance.

Based on his years of combat experience, he knew that their country's summoner was no match for this little girl.

She was eliminated early, while athletes from other countries still have a slim chance of advancing.

However, from the perspective of the entire human community, he didn't want this little girl to suffer such a disaster.

The moon elf under the blood moon was truly terrifying. Even though the tournament federation wouldn't let the little girl die and chose to save her, ensuring her survival, Stink was worried that the little girl would be traumatized by seeing that horrific thing.

He had seen many geniuses whose cultivation stagnated due to psychological trauma caused by improper upbringing. If that little girl were to suffer the same fate, Stink was certain it would be a great loss to humanity.

However complicated his feelings were, he knew he couldn't change anything.

He also hoped that his comrades had cleared out the Moonlight Coal Beasts in the vicinity.

She might return disappointed, having gained nothing all day, but that would still be better than facing a group of moon spirits.

As Stink's heart pounded with mixed emotions, the sky outside gradually darkened.

Yufei had extinguished the fire and found a safe place to hide, waiting for the moonlight to appear.

While waiting, the Green Vine Demon transformed into plant spirits under the moonlight.

Another half day passed, and slowly a full moon climbed above the treetops, its light bathing the earth in the outside world.

The Moongreen Vine Demon also began to sway after coming into contact with the silvery moonlight.

The vines grew larger and larger, growing rapidly, like a great architect constructing a dreamlike amusement park with its own tendrils.

The moonlight, already overflowing and unable to be absorbed any more, drifted around the amusement park like scattered fireflies.

Twinkling and shimmering, it transforms into all sorts of vibrant colors; this is a dream paradise in a girl's heart.

It was so beautiful that Yufei was mesmerized, her mind completely captivated by the amusement park.

"Sure enough! Under the moonlight, a plant spirit appeared inside the plant whose second-level gene had been unlocked. Yufei picked it now!"

The oblivious Xiao Jun hurriedly reminded Yufei, pulling her out of her reverie.

She wiped her face and was about to go out to pluck the evolved Moongreen Vine Demon when things changed.

A melodious, ethereal song rose from afar, and a group of creatures draped in silvery-white orbs, their bodies entirely black inside, their large, spherical eyes bouncing about.

A long line of people came from afar, and Yufei saw the introduction about this creature through her smart glasses.

The Moonlight Coal Beast and its related information were like a bucket of cold water poured over Yufei, chilling her to the bone.

Yufei was unwilling to just hand over the plant spirit she had guarded for so long to the beast.

"Xiao Jun! Can you quickly locate its plant spirit? I want to deal with this mutated plant before those little cuties arrive."

Yufei did some calculations, wondering if she could acquire the plant spirit before the Moonlight Coal Ball Beast evolved under the influence of this plant.

As for collecting them after they've evolved... Yufei wouldn't even dare to think about it.

Xiao Jun silently scanned the Moongreen Vine Demon, which had evolved to level 4, from head to toe.

The level 4 plant spirit was quite large, and it truthfully told Yufei the situation. She then quickly harvested the plant spirit without stopping.

Xiao Jun calculated based on Yu Fei's abilities for about half an hour.

These Moonlight Coal Beasts completed their evolutionary ritual under the moonlight, which Xiao Jun estimated would take about half an hour, according to the information provided by her smart glasses.

Xiao Jun felt that such an adventure was not worth it at all; there was a high probability that by the time she finished dealing with the mutated plant, the group of energy beasts would have also completed their evolution.

Since the plant spirit would directly confront Yufei, Xiaojun felt it was better to leave; it was only a day's delay.

The finals have a month to go, and many things can happen in between, so there's no need to push yourself so hard in the early stages.

Yufei's rationality told her that Xiaojun was right: as long as the green hills remain, there will always be firewood to burn.

But human nature is inherently flawed; people always feel that their luck won't be too bad, and that with a little effort, they might turn a bicycle into a motorcycle.

Yufei hesitated for a moment, but still decided to rush out, with a kind of "what's the worst that could happen? I'll die and be reborn" attitude.

The plant spirits that started harvesting the mutated plant before the energy beasts arrived should be able to finish harvesting it before they do.

They began their operation. The group of energy beasts, bouncing and leaping, seemed not to be moving very fast, but in reality, they reached the paradise formed by the mutated plant in about five minutes, the same time Yufei had been harvesting it.

It was obvious that some of the energy beasts had seen Yufei cutting grass and wood spirits at the base of the Moongreen Vine Demon Roots, but they did not stop her.

Instead of not seeing her, they all happily entered the amusement park, bouncing and playing like a group of joyful children.

Singing joyful songs, they played in the paradise that the Moongreen Vine Demon had built especially for them, again and again.

As time went on, the silver light on their bodies grew brighter and brighter, and Yufei could clearly feel their aura growing stronger.

She quickened her harvesting pace, her face covered in sweat, encouraging herself, "Almost there, just a little bit more!"
