"Yu Lei, the people on your island are really tough," Liu Yun said upon seeing this.
Yu Lei explained, "These are special Honey Water Bee bred by scholars from Luo Yu. Their venom has the effect of enhancing strength. In this small place, resources are limited, so we had to resort to unconventional methods. I hope you two will forgive our shortcomings."
"Is Luo Yu's strength also due to this training method?" Liu Yun asked.
Yu Lei nodded.
Beside her, Shi Qianqian's lips twitched. Wait a minute! The way Luo Yu was talking about helping her Seedling Turtle develop its potential—could it also be through acupuncture?
"Show your amusement? Who would dare laugh!" The thought of that possibility almost brought her to tears.
"I'll go inform Luo Yu. Please wait a moment." Yu Lei walked towards Luo Yu.
The bureau chief arrived, and the school leaders all gave Luo Yu a few reminders.
"The students generally don't accept it much; their willpower is too weak. How can they succeed like this?" Luo Yu greeted them and immediately complained. After half a day, very few people dared to try the Sting Training Method; they were all just observing.
Only after the teacher called out the names of the students did a few students come up. The rest of the students didn't even dare to look the teacher in the eye, for fear of being called on.
"The survival pressure is too low, and they're too well protected!" the director said. If we could go back a hundred years, to the dark ages before the Alliance was established, with such a shortcut to strength, would anyone be afraid of pain? Loading... Luo Yu said, "It's Seedling Turtle being pricked; it doesn't hurt you."
"If it can't even endure this little bit of suffering, how can it help you achieve good results? The students on Mirror Moon Island have no choice but to endure acupuncture; it's a small place, resources are limited, and there are few ways to become stronger. It would be best if you went along with it, but you can just let the Seedling Turtle get acupuncture, and not have to get it yourself."
"After all, it has to fight too. In Beast Taming battles, what attack isn't more powerful than Poison Sting?"
"Endure more hardship now, and you'll bleed less during battle!"
"Huh." Shi Qianqian didn't react for a moment. Right, what was she afraid of if the needle was stuck in the Seedling Turtle's body?
These students have misled me!
Luo Yu has flexible standards. For the new Beast Taming on Mirror Moon Island, he naturally arranges for both the person and the pet to be pricked with needles. After all, once you reach the Intermediate Level Beast Taming Master level, Beast Taming Tamers are considered combat units. Moreover, having multiple pricked targets means earning more money and generating more positive emotions.
However, this arrangement is definitely not suitable for outsiders like Shi Qianqian, as it would discourage people from participating. But if only the pet beasts suffer, and the Beast Taming doesn't force them, then many people would definitely be willing to accept this training method.
However, Luo Yu still recommends that people and their pets come together. This way, the pets won't feel resentful when they see that the Beast Taming is also suffering. That's how July was; when she saw that Luo Yu was even tougher than her, she was too embarrassed to complain about how hard the training was.
Worried that exploiting your pet will damage your emotional bond? Just be even tougher on yourself.
"But does this thing really work?" Shi Qianqian asked skeptically. There were more Honey Water Bee than stray dogs on the roadside. Could the superpower of this low-level mutated beast really be the key to Luo Yu's Low-Rank Species against the king?
"Wait a few days, and you'll see," Luo Yu said. "Anyway, it's free." "Free..." Shi Qianqian said, "Just tell me what your purpose is."
Luo Yu said helplessly, "Of course there's a purpose... As you can see, Mirror Moon Island is a small place, lacking resources and quite poor. Yu Lei and I really want to make a name for this ' Honey Water Bee Stinging Training Method ' so that we can make money from it."
"I went to participate in the Abyss Trial for one purpose: to advertise the Honey Water Bee Stinging Training Method."
"As long as I achieve a good ranking and make it into the newspapers, this training method will inevitably gain widespread recognition."
"I'd like to ask you for a favor. If it really works and the results are good, could you please give me a shout-out? My one sample isn't convincing enough, but your Seedling Turtle is actually more suitable for this training method than my pet."
"Its base stats are even lower than Earth Penguin's; its strength relies entirely on its powerful time attribute. If its base stats are raised through the Sting Training Method, it will definitely shine brighter than my pet in the Abyss Trial."
"A win-win situation for everyone."
Luo Yu's explanation was acceptable to Shi Qianqian and fit the situation on Mirror Moon Island.
Of course, Luo Yu's core objective was to get the Flower-Picking Bandit Bee to extract the power of time. However, he couldn't say that directly right now; he needed to use the enhanced Honey Water Bee to keep the other party occupied for the time being...
Shi Qianqian looked at her mother.
Liu Yun said, "What do you want to do before the Abyss Trial? I'll go with you."
"Then let's try it for a few days...?" Shi Qianqian said, "If it works well, I can help you advertise. I'll ask the largest newspaper in Vast Blue to promote it for you." Luo Yu smiled slightly, "It's a pleasure to cooperate."
"Has Yu Lei arranged accommodations for you?"
Shi Qianqian said, "That won't be necessary. We can stay on the boat."
"That works too," Luo Yu said.
Many navigators, upon arriving at a new island, preferred not to stay there, finding it easier to sleep on the ship.
"Do you want to let the Seedling Turtle try it now?" Luo Yu asked.
"Can."
"What basic attributes do you mainly want to enhance?" Luo Yu asked. "Different Honey Water Bee can enhance different attributes. Let me think, how about enhancing its defense first?"
"During our battle, the Seedling Turtle ' defenses were too weak; they were instantly knocked down by the Honey Water Bee's Poison Sting..."
"The next day, when we faced the Radiant Tide Dragon, its Poison Sting couldn't even penetrate its defenses."
Shi Qianqian retorted angrily, "How can you make such a comparison... Let's strengthen our defenses first then."
Luo Yu looked towards the distant sky. The next moment, four Honey Water Bee with the "Defense Enhancement Talent" flew over and stood in a row in the air, waiting for the next Command from the Empress in Luo Yu's eyes. "... Just summon them to get stung, right?" Shi Qianqian summoned her Seedling Turtle and briefly explained the situation to it.
Seedling Turtle:?
The Seedling Turtle's pupils contracted as it looked up at the Honey Water Bee in the sky, the image of being Honey Water Bee and crushed by them last time still vivid in its mind.
What, acupuncture training?
A Poison Sting that can blast a large hole in a thick tree trunk with a single thrust?
"Don't be afraid," Shi Qianqian said. "It's not the same one. Look at these little bees, they're only a few levels high, it won't hurt."
"..." The Seedling Turtle expressed deep doubt.
Before long, under Shi Qianqian's command, the Seedling Turtle exposed its limbs, and four Honey Water Bee with Enhancement Talent attacked it in unison!
To ensure the target immediately felt the enhancement effect, Luo Yu secretly instructed the Empress to amplify the Honey Water Bee ' acupuncture techniques, causing their Poison Sting to suddenly become larger and thicker, gleaming with a cold light during the acupuncture process!
Sizzle sizzle sizzle!
Four Poison Sting pierced the Seedling Turtle's limbs. Being a Low-Rank Species Low-Rank Species, it was still in excruciating pain, spinning around in place despite being attacked by several Honey Water Bee that were only a level below it.
However, immediately after the toxin was injected, the Seedling Turtle's body reacted. Visibly, a faint sheen appeared on its shell and body, as if its body had undergone countless trials, becoming incredibly solid. Sensing the Seedling Turtle's transformation, Shi Qianqian stunned. She hadn't expected such an astonishing effect; just one injection, and such a significant improvement?
"Defense Enhancement is just the basic training. There's also mental enhancement, Five Senses Enhancement, and even elemental attribute enhancement..." Luo Yu said, "Now you believe me, right? As long as you train here for a few months, you'll be able to rampage through the Abyss Trial. I might not even be a match for you then."
"The effect is so good!! Your Mirror Moon Island is going to be rich!" Shi Qianqian said.
"It's not enough to make a fortune..." Luo Yu said, "After all, the Honey Water Bee are too low-level. Currently, they only have a good strengthening effect on low-level Beast Taming. Moreover, after strengthening them too many times, they will develop resistance, so there is no limit to how high they can be improved. However, changing the current situation on Mirror Moon Island should still be achievable."
"That's already pretty good!" Shi Qianqian said happily, "You really weren't lying to me..."
She looked at Liu Yun and said, "I'll be staying here for a while."
"Okay." Liu Yun smiled slightly; she was naturally very happy that her daughter had found a way to become stronger.
Although she would be staying on Mirror Moon Island for a while, for a Beast Taming of her level, time would pass in the blink of an eye while cultivating on the ship.
After confirming that Shi Qianqian would stay, Luo Yu was in a great mood. As long as she was willing to stay, he could create opportunities for the "Flower-Picking Bandit" to collect Time Turtle Honey at any time.
When the time comes, with Time Turtle Honey and Time-based resources, we can carefully select a few "Breeding Paragon" and "More Children, More Blessings" mothers to eat.
While it's true that parents consuming resources of other attributes doesn't guarantee offspring with that attribute's talent, the nutrients from food are unlikely to directly translate into talent in offspring.
However, "Breeding Paragon" and "More Children, More Blessings" are clearly special mothers. What if? Let's take a gamble! It would be even better if we could have Ink Fish with a time-type talent.
Then, we can find a group of Time-type Ink Fish and a group of Grass-type Ink Fish to fuse and evolve. Will they evolve into Water Devil Beast that is similar to Seedling Turtle and has both Grass and Time types? Then, we can let the Flower-Picking Bandit its honey!
In this way... a stable time-based resource production line is now available!
Becoming the richest person in the Alliance is not a dream. However, the profit of this thing is even more exaggerated than that of Monarch Species pet. After all, there are not many time-type resources on the market. On the contrary, there are many people selling Monarch Species pets. Therefore, you definitely can't keep it without some strength. Even though Luo Yu made it, he didn't dare to sell it on a large scale. He could only use it secretly for himself first.
