Chapter 27: Cheating Pig
Chapter 27: Cheating Pig
In the middle of the night, around 11 or 12, Pang Dudu, who had just returned home not long ago, suddenly called.
Her voice was filled with tears, startling Li Wu.
He knew that Pang Dudu's parents were both away on a business trip these days, leaving her alone at home. Could it be that someone had sinister intentions towards her? Li Wu quickly asked her what was wrong.
But after asking for a long time, Li Wu couldn't get a clear answer.
All he could tell was that this girl was panicked, confused, and afraid.
Li Wu didn't have time to deal with that now. He hurriedly brought the recently advanced Mini Skeleton and rushed towards Pang Dudu's place.
Fortunately, their homes were in the same neighborhood, so Li Wu arrived quickly. In a matter of minutes, he reached Pang Dudu's house.
Li Wu had a key to Pang Dudu's house, so he didn't need her to open the door. He unlocked it and rushed in.
As soon as he entered, Li Wu felt a sense of relief.
The house was neat, showing no signs of intrusion. He didn't see Pang Dudu in the living room, but he heard noises coming from her room, and they weren't small. Li Wu's eyes narrowed, and he gave a glance to the Mini Skeleton beside him.
Huh? It didn't understand.
Li Wu, growing impatient, had to shout.
"Go and open the door!"
This time, the Mini Skeleton understood and walked over to open the door.
As it turned out, Li Wu's decision was right. Just as the door to Pang Dudu's room was opened, a massive shadow rushed out and slammed the Mini Skeleton to the ground, pinning it down.
Li Wu heard a crisp 'crack' sound, indicating a bone fracture or dislocation.
At that moment, Li Wu also saw the creature that had pinned the Mini Skeleton down, frantically digging around.
Li Wu was shocked. Wasn't this the pig from Pang Dudu's house? How did it get so big?
The pig, originally the size of a fist, was now nearly two meters long, with two sharp fangs that made it look quite terrifying, yet it still had the same dumbfounded expression.
After digging at the Mini Skeleton a few times and taking a few bites, the creature realized that the Mini Skeleton no longer had the delicious scent it once had. It stopped and turned its gaze towards Li Wu, its tiny eyes filled with covetousness.
Li Wu felt nervous, fearing that the pig might attack him too. With his small arms and legs, he knew he wouldn't stand a chance against this pig.
Fortunately, just as Li Wu was feeling anxious, the pig seemed to snap out of its trance. It deflated with a 'whoosh', transforming from a two-meter-long giant back into its original size of about two fists.
Seeing this, Li Wu finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he still dared not approach the pig.
"You, grab it for me!"
He ordered the Mini Skeleton to capture the now-shrunk and confused pig. After it was secured, Li Wu cautiously approached and touched the pig. As he did, he almost shattered his own eyes.
"How is this possible? How could this pig's attributes have changed so much in just a few days?
It's cheating!"
...
Name: Mini Pig

Description: Hmm, see it? Envious? Jealous? It's cheating!
...
At the moment Li Wu saw the pig's attributes, he felt like his heart had been brutally attacked.
His previous excitement about the Mini Skeleton's quality improvement was instantly deflated.
Damn it! Even though he had an unfair advantage, he didn't just lie around and do nothing!
Pang Dudu knew the efforts he put in to improve Xiao Gu Lou's quality. Every day, he woke up early and stayed up late, determined to learn something new.
After a month of hard work, he barely managed to improve Xiao Gu Lou's quality to match that of the mini pig, and it didn't even have an awakened skill. But with a single fart, it was easily defeated by the mini pig!
Furthermore, Lu Wu still had to figure out how to enhance his own Xiao Gu Lou.
On the other hand, Pang Dudu's group had a different story.
From the owner to the mini pig, they spent the past month eating and sleeping, and when they weren't eating, they were jealous of Lu Wu. Lu Wu never witnessed their efforts.
In terms of dedication, Lu Wu outshone them by miles, and he even had an advantage!
In the end, while they ate and slept without a care, the mini pig's quality improved to the Black Iron level, and it wasn't even the inferior version. It gained three additional skills, and its quality enhancement after reaching Black Iron was clearly planned out.
But that wasn't what made Lu Wu's blood boil.
What truly infuriated him was when he saw the mini pig's enhancement plan—an error-free version!
...
Quality Enhancement Plan: Bonding Skill Improvement.
Plan Explanation: Through the skill of Bonded Growth, the mini pig can absorb energy from its owner to enhance its quality.
In simpler terms, to upgrade the Summoned Beast, the Summoner just needs to eat! The better and more the Summoner eats, the higher the mini pig's quality will be!
PS: Don't be jealous. This is the mundane and unexciting life of a European Summoner.
...
As he read through the plan, Lu Wu's blood boiled with excitement. At that moment, he couldn't contain himself.
"Where is that girl? Where's your owner? Where is she? I'll teach that damn European a lesson today!"
Saying this, Lu Wu threw the mini pig aside and stormed into Pang Dudu's room.
Upon entering, he immediately spotted the blanket on her bed, all rolled up.
Needless to say, Pang Dudu was trembling under the blanket. Seeing this, Lu Wu's anger intensified. "What's there to be afraid of? It's your own advantage, isn't it?"
"Come out and show your face. I'll make your face as round as a plate!"
"I'll teach you a lesson for using unfair advantages!"
Overcome with jealousy, Lu Wu couldn't control his hands and yanked the blanket off Pang Dudu.
But as the blanket was pulled away, Lu Wu was stunned.
The figure beneath the blanket wasn't the plump Pang Dudu he knew; instead, it was a girl in an oversized sleepwear, with a curvy figure, fair skin, and trembling legs.
Seeing her, Lu Wu's tone softened instantly. He patted her shoulder and asked, "Who are you? Why are you in Dudu's bed?"
At that moment, as Lu Wu patted her shoulder, the girl lifted her head, her teary eyes meeting his. In that instant, her eyes sparkled, and her heart found solace. She hugged Lu Wu tightly.
"Lu Wu, I'm scared. I saw a ghost!"
At that moment, Lu Wu's mind went blank, only remembering the timeless beauty he had glimpsed. As for the enhanced Pang Dudu? Lu Wu had completely forgotten about her!
