Chapter 132: Little Goldfish Seeks Lu Wu
Chapter 132: Little Goldfish Seeks Lu Wu
Lu Hai Kong felt that since he had placed the egg in the wardrobe, Lu Wu would definitely need to change clothes.
As long as Lu Wu changed clothes, there was a 100% chance of discovering the egg, it was just a matter of time.
Unfortunately, Lu Wu did indeed need to change clothes, but he didn't even bother to open the wardrobe.
Why bother with the wardrobe? He was busy and didn't have time to worry about his appearance.
He only had two sets of everyday clothes, and he simply alternated between them in an endless cycle, without the need for tidying up.
Even with this setup, Lu Wu found it troublesome and even considered taking off the Skeleton Mage's Mage Robe to wear himself.
If he did that, he wouldn't even need to wash clothes in the future.
Indeed, he not only thought about it but also put it into action.
The skeleton was quite willing, and it enjoyed dressing up with Lu Wu. Unfortunately, the skeleton was only 1.6 meters tall, and without any flesh on its bones, its loose-fitting robe couldn't fit Lu Wu either.
So, Lu Wu had to stick with his two sets of clothes in an endless cycle.
After all, Lu Wu's good looks allowed him to wear whatever he wanted without any issues, and no one dared to say anything about it.
However, this led to Lu Wu not opening his wardrobe for several months, let alone discovering the additional box and egg inside.
If he had found the egg earlier, the little creature inside could have hatched much sooner, and it wouldn't have taken months to break out of its shell.
Now, the little creature had hatched, but Lu Wu was gone.
This had no impact on Lu Wu; he didn't even know what had happened.
After all, neither he nor the little creature inside the egg had formed a contract yet.
But for the little creature, the impact was significant.
While the little creature was still an egg, Lu Hai Kong had put a drop of Lu Wu's blood inside. At that time, the little creature's consciousness had gradually awakened, and it was just waiting to come out. With the passage of time, it could even sense the external environment.
In other words, although Lu Wu was unaware of the little creature's existence, the little creature was aware of Lu Wu.
One could even say that they had been living together day and night for several months.
Now that the little creature had hatched, Lu Wu was gone, and it felt especially confused, aggrieved, and angry! When a summoning beast gets angry, the situation changes drastically.
The skeleton could cast its ultimate move, but this little creature directly evolved in anger.
Originally a round little creature, after rolling around Lu Wu's house for a long time without finding an exit, finally stopped beside the toilet. As it stared at the toilet water, a golden light suddenly blossomed on its body.
Meanwhile, as Lu Wu was on his way to Fu City and browsing the intranet, he felt his head buzzing, and a chill rushed over him, indicating an increase in psychic power.
"What's going on? Did the skeleton's strength increase? This time, it's so easy that I didn't even need to smash anything!"
Lu Wu was extremely surprised and quickly looked at the skeleton, which was standing on the side, stretching curiously, and allowing the goblin to touch it with a blank expression.
Upon seeing this, Lu Wu became even more confused.
"It's still a 1-star, and it didn't level up? Why did my psychic power increase then?"
Additionally, Lu Wu vaguely felt that his mind had gained something, but due to the distance, this sensation was very weak. Lu Wu studied it for a long time but couldn't figure out the reason. In the end, Lu Wu had no choice but to put this matter aside and continue browsing the intranet.
During Lu Wu's confusion, abandonment, and the little creature in Lu Wu's home also completed its evolution.
The originally small round creature, after finishing its evolution, turned into a little goldfish.
Furthermore, during its evolution, it had already formed a contract with Lu Wu, and it now knew where Lu Wu was.
Although it didn't know the exact location, it knew the direction and was determined to find Lu Wu! It wanted to ask Lu Wu why it had been locked up in a dark place for so long and why it, a cute little creature, had been dragged down!
The little goldfish leaped into the toilet, swam into the sewer, and began its journey to find Lu Wu began!
...
Lu Wu, on the other hand, had no idea that he had gained a new summoning beast.
He was also unaware that the little creature was angrily rushing towards him.
He had just finished feeling the buzzing in his head and continued with his tasks.
On this day, as Lu Wu had just gotten into the car, the evolution plan for the skeleton mage that he had submitted several months ago finally showed some progress.
The intranet just sent him an email.
[Your submitted 【Skeleton Mage Evolution Plan】 requires your answers to some questions during the verification process. Below are the questions from the verification process...]
Looking at the email and the attached questions, Lu Wu couldn't help but frown.
"What a hassle! This evolution plan is much more troublesome than a breeding plan, and after several months, it's still not done. Now, after all this time, I have to answer questions. What a headache!"
However, despite his complaints, Lu Wu provided detailed answers to each of the questions.
After finishing the task, Lu Wu casually checked his account.
...

...
Over the past few months, Lu Wu hadn't added any new Summoning Beast training programs, but he had earned some points by modifying the Skills training programs.
His total points had now reached a whopping 4023.
This was a significant sum, and seeing this amount of points, Lu Wu felt like he had become a wealthy person.
Unfortunately, he knew this pile of points wouldn't last long.
"Now that I have enough points, I should start working on the second phase of learning.
The quality of the Mini Skeletons hasn't improved in several months, so it's time to push them up a notch!"
Lu Wu opened the Intranet and clicked on the Necromantic Bone Classification training program.
There were numerous Summoning Beasts in the Necromantic Bone Classification, a dense cluster, and Lu Wu had to learn every single training program for them.
Furthermore, if he wanted to research deeply, Lu Wu would also need to acquire these bone-based Summoning Beasts.
In the One619BookNetNoMistakeVersion, he found what he was looking for.
After all, Lu Wu's Golden Finger ability required the presence of a Summoning Beast to modify the programs. Without a Summoning Beast, how could he make any changes?
"If I try to learn all these programs at once, even these thousands of points won't be enough, and I don't have the means to find that many Summoning Beasts.
For now, I'll start with a single bone-based Summoning Beast, learn all its training programs, and then get one for experimentation."
Lu Wu pondered for a moment and selected the Boneboar as his first research subject.
With points in his pocket, Lu Wu felt generous and purchased all 183 training programs for the Boneboar in one go.
Out of the 183 programs, 172 were for improving to Black Iron Grade, and 11 were for Bronze Grade.
The cheapest cost 3 points, the most expensive 15, and the total cost for all programs was 1322 points.
It was quite an expense, but Lu Wu could afford it.
After all, he had over 4000 points, and these points weren't going anywhere.
Once he thoroughly researched these programs, he would summon a Boneboar and use his Golden Finger ability to absorb all the programs. Then, he could create a 9.0+ version and upload it to the Intranet, ensuring he wouldn't lose money and might even make a profit.
"Also, the Provincial High School League is about to start.
My long-awaited advertising opportunity is here. If it succeeds, it'll be another influx of points.
Looks like I won't be running out of points anytime soon. From now on, my points will only keep growing!"
The thought made Lu Wu's smile even brighter.
As the saying goes, a full stomach leads to... other desires (and I'll leave the rest to your imagination).
With some points in his pocket, Lu Wu had new ideas.
"Now I have enough Psychic Power and points. Maybe I should play with a Summoning Beast?"
"Yeah, Fucheng is the center of Jiangnan. They should have a Summoning Stone shop there, right?
Once I get to Fucheng, I'll get a Summoning Stone.
This time, I must get a Summoning Beast of at least Gold Grade. I've had enough of these troublesome low-quality Summoning Beasts like the Mini Skeleton.
It has to be a Summoning Beast of exceptional quality, one that's incredibly low-maintenance, and ideally, it should be able to grow without much supervision!"
Lu Wu spoke these words, and even he felt like he was dreaming.
"Alright, maybe there are Summoning Beasts of higher quality, but one that doesn't need any care or supervision to grow is almost impossible.
I just hope it's a bit easier to manage than the Mini Skeleton!"
What Lu Wu didn't know was that such a low-maintenance Summoning Beast did exist.
No need for nurturing, no need for teaching.
This Summoning Beast could not only evolve on its own but also form a bond and even pursue its target from a distance.
Incredibly low-maintenance!
After all, its origins were extraordinary.
The only possible issue was that when this easy-going little fellow found Lu Wu, it might greet him with a tail-whip to the head!
...
Thanks to tworen9999 for the generous support!
By the way, at home, I usually just alternate between two sets of clothes!
