Pea Shooter

From an ordinary creature with a Life Level of zero to an awakened creature with a Life Level of one.

According to Su Heng's observations and summaries during this period.

After this transformation, growth is stable and slow. Under normal circumstances, there won't be a significant increase in vitality or size immediately.

The same applied to the two butterflies.

After mutating, their body size didn't change much, but the colors on their bodies appeared even more vibrant.

The two butterflies danced among the flowers and then intertwined under the gently swaying treetops of the willow tree.

One could clearly see clusters of light dots scattering from the butterflies' wings.

When these light dots landed on the willow tree's branches, a special vitality surged from the trunk, and the speed at which the sharp, pointed roots absorbed nutrients from the mutated wild boar's body also increased significantly.

[Talent: Spring Return Technique (Rare Quality): Butterflies flap their wings, influencing plants within range. Plants affected by Spring Return Technique grow faster and heal more easily when damaged.]

A rare-quality talent.

Among mutated creatures with a Life Level of one, it is very uncommon.

With the help of the willow tree's Life Enlightenment, Su Heng has "enlightened" quite a number of mutated creatures these days.

These two butterflies were the only two out of dozens of successful creations that obtained a rare-quality talent.

Moreover, the effect was unexpectedly good.

Under the influence of Spring Return Technique, Su Heng's vitality was rapidly increasing, and the feeling of weakness caused by the extensive use of the Life Enlightenment talent was gradually disappearing.

"An unexpected bonus."

A pale green willow branch gently extended, and the two butterflies lightly landed on its tip.

These creatures mutated under the effect of the Life Enlightenment talent, and they naturally felt a fondness for the willow tree.

As of now, most of Su Heng's familiars are still plants.

In this situation, the role played by the two butterflies became even more crucial.

They could greatly accelerate plant growth, allowing Su Heng's Wonderland Plan to take shape more quickly.

In this cold and dangerous dark mountain range.

Only by having an endless army of mutated creatures surrounding him could Su Heng feel a sliver of security.

"Rest time is over."

The tender branch lowered.

The two butterflies flew away, landing on a patch of morning glories not far away.

"Next, I need familiars like the Peregrine Falcon, ones that can inflict heavy damage on ill-intentioned intruders."

Su Heng murmured, "Since I already have butterflies, why not choose some plants and see if I can guide them in a more aggressive direction..."

Following this requirement.

Su Heng searched for targets in this canyon that could potentially meet his needs.

Soon.

Two types of special plants appeared before Su Heng.

The first were several wild peas growing a bit further away, by the stream.

It was early August, and by rights, the season for wild peas to pod should have long passed.

But perhaps due to the influence of the Red Moon, or possibly just the climate, the pea pods growing by the stream were plump, round, and juicy, giving an impression of abundant vitality.

"You peas are quite good at hiding, hand them over!"

Wild peas generally live on higher mountain slopes, so finding them in this valley was considered good luck.

Swish!

The wild peas grew along the winding stream. In the entire valley, about seven or eight plants could be reached by the willow tree's branches.

[Used Life Enlightenment talent, Vitality reduced by 0.01]

In less than a minute.

Su Heng had attempted to "enlighten" all the wild peas within range one by one using the Life Enlightenment talent.

The vitality consumed by enlightening the wild peas was roughly the same as for the morning glories.

Of the eight wild peas, half failed to be enlightened, while the other half successfully awakened talents, becoming mutated creatures that surpassed the ordinary.

[Pea]

[Status: Healthy]

[Life Level: 1]

[Vitality: 0.35]

[Talent: Sharpshooter (Common Quality): Mutated peas will shoot pea seeds hidden within the pods. Range and power increase with the pea's vitality.]

"Pea Shooter?"

After mutating, the pea plant's stem and roots had visibly thickened.

A large amount of nutrients were concentrated in the plump pea pods. Thick plant fibers began to proliferate, making the previously slightly cracked pea pods look like green plant cannons.

"Let's test the power of the Pea Shooter..."

Seeing the somewhat strange appearance of the mutated pea, Su Heng found it quite interesting. He waved his branches, giving commands to these peas.

Bang, bang, bang!

Four peas fired simultaneously.

The power of the Pea Shooter wasn't great. Several peas flew about forty to fifty meters before falling crookedly to the ground.

The remaining peas hit a large rock nearby, exploding into a pale green pulp.

If these peas hit a person...

At most, it would cause a slight stinging sensation, with no significant lethality.

This was within Su Heng's expectations.

The power of the Pea Shooter was closely related to the vitality of the peas themselves. With these peas having a vitality of only around 0.3, a lack of power was normal.

As the peas continued to grow, their vitality increased, and perhaps in the future, their Life Level might even increase.

The power of these peas would then reach a satisfactory level.

"The future looks promising."

After seeing the effect of these peas, Su Heng summarized in his mind.

Next, he shifted his gaze to another clump of plants beside him that was deemed worthy of cultivation.

Not ten meters away from the Willow Tree, a clump of unremarkable weeds grew.

The thick grass stalks were nearly a meter long, with soft white fuzz growing at the tips. The edges of the slender leaves had serrated patterns.

White Cogongrass.

Also known as the perfect weed, it had vigorous roots and extremely developed vitality. Even if burned to ashes, it would regrow vigorously after some time.

"Tenacious vitality, coupled with serrated leaves. I hope you don't disappoint me."
