Chapter 578 - Lady Building Is Born! With Innate Talent!
Chapter 578: Lady Building Is Born! With Innate Talent!
The moment Su Yang chose [Yes], the entire unfinished building was enveloped by a faint green glow. The glow was like a firefly under the summer sky, dancing in the debris.
However, Su Yang did not think that the scene was pretty.
‘If I were to describe the scene when Qing Zhu had her point added to be as beautiful as a fairyland, then this time, it looks a little eerie and bone chilling.
‘It’s now 2am in the middle of the night, I’m in a place with broken tiles and broken walls, plus there’s all this green fluorescence flying about. So, no matter how I look at this, it somehow feels like… A mass grave.’
Slowly, the fluorescence began to rotate and shrink with the unfinished building as its center before suddenly, it disappeared. Then, the surroundings turned pitch black once more.
Su Yang quickly opened his eyes wide and looked over. In the end, he realized that the unfinished building that was originally standing on the ground had disappeared without a trace., leaving only a huge pit on the ground.
The pit looked to be about five to six meters deep. It looked like someone had uprooted the entire foundation.
At the same time, Su Yang’s mind started to buzz.
He quickly called out to the system and an exclamation mark appeared on it. [Advanced Life Evolution discovered. Please treat it well.]
‘I succeeded?
‘Where is she then?’
Just as Su Yang was thinking about this, the sky that was originally shrouded in fog gradually darkened.
It was a magical sight. Before, it was already night, but because of the fog, the night was covered in a white veil. But now, the fog that was floating in the air seemed to have been tainted by the darkness and turned black. The black fog covered the entire surface of the ground like it had arrived in hell…
Su Yang raised his head to look at this magical scene. Just as he was shocked by this scene, the sound of horse hooves came from the black fog.
Su Yang looked in the direction where the horse’s hooves came from and saw a tall horse made entirely of black fog rushing out from the darkness carrying a tall figure.
She was donned in heavy armor and wielded a spear and her chest was bulging. ‘She looks like… A female knight?’
Su Yang heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. ‘As expected, I’ve added a point onto Lady Building. Thank goodness it’s not a Man Building. Otherwise, I would definitely beat him to death!
‘As for not having a head, so be it… She’ll do since she has a lower body… Pui, she’s still a woman anyway.’
Suddenly, Su Yang realized something. ‘Hold on! Why does she actually not have a head?!’
Su Yang quickly turned his gaze back to the Black Knight, only to find that he was right. On top of the knight’s tall and large stature, there was no head!
‘A headless knight?
‘Stop messing around with me! System!
‘Would someone even be considered to be a person if they don’t have a head?
‘They’ve got to be a corpse then!’
Just as Su Yang was complaining, the black fog slowly disappeared. The huge horse that the black knight was riding on also disappeared and the black knight landed on the ground and the armor fell apart…
Su Yang could not really bring himself to laugh at that funny scene.
‘Right then, forget about her not having a head, she’s even a fake knight?’
Just as he was lost in his thoughts, an old female voice came from the pile of armor on the ground. “Young man, are you just going to stare like that? Don’t you know how to help?”
Su Yang was confused. ‘Help? What’s happening?
He hurried over to take a closer look and realized that it was not the human but the suit of armor that had fallen apart. Underneath the black armor was a person wearing a yellow shirt who was struggling.
Su Yang reached out to remove the armor. Then, he tried to pull that person out with all his might. In the end, he actually managed to pull that person up after putting just a little strength into it.
That’s right, the person was pulled up just like that. It was like Su Yang was grabbing a little chick.
However, it was not because Su Yang was strong, but because the person was very light. ‘I’m “estimating” that this person is only fifty to sixty pounds.’
Su Yang took a closer look and realized that the person was very short, standing at only about 1.4 meters tall. Also, the person’s body was so frail that it seemed even the lightest wind would be able to blow her away.
If it was just her body that was frail, Su Yang would have been fine with it since he knew that the unfinished building was going to be “physically weak” when he was enlightening it. However, even her mouth was shriveled and her eyelids were drooping, even her face was filled with wrinkles, looking exactly like an old granny. Based on her wrinkles, she looked like she was in her eighties…
‘It seems like I’ve added a point and have come up with a “Madam” Building…
Su Yang even felt that he was being taken advantage of by calling her “auntie”. ‘Based on her age, she’s old enough to even be my grandmother. Yeap, I think she could even pass off as my great grandmother.’
The old lady might have been feeling uncomfortable from Su Yang’s grip. She struggled for a while and mumbled incoherently, “Let… Let me go.”
Su Yang was someone who respected everyone despite their age. Hence, when he heard that, he quickly placed the old lady on the ground.
After the old lady landed on the ground, she placed her hands behind her back and massaged her waist before bending over.
She was not tall to begin with, and now that she was bent over, she seemed even shorter, probably even less than a meter. She wasn’t even the height of Su Yang’s legs…
One of her hands was behind her waist, while the other was by her mouth. She held her mouth and coughed. Then, she took small steps and slowly walked to the pile of armor. After searching for a long time, she found an earthen yellow wooden stick and held it in her hand.
The old lady seemed to be relieved after receiving the wooden stick. She turned around so that Su Yang could take a good look at her.
‘Yeap, she’s a frail old lady who seems to be in her dying years. She’s dressed in an earthen-yellow, tattered linen robe with one hand behind her waist, while her other’s on a walking stick. She’s got a shrivelled mouth, drooping eyelids and a face full of wrinkles. No matter how I look at her, she doesn’t seem like she’s going to be able to live past tonight…’
Su Yang was a little speechless. I think I haven’t added a point onto “Lady Building”, but “Madam Building”.’
He asked the old lady softly, “Madam, are you… Um, okay?”
The old lady lifted her drooping eyelids slightly, revealing a small slit. She took a glance at Su Yang before her eyelids drooped again and her shriveled lips moved.
Su Yang waited patiently for her answer.
One second, two seconds, three seconds… Ten seconds later, the old lady still ignored Su Yang.
Just when Su Yang thought that the old lady had fallen asleep, “Zzz”… She actually started snoring!
‘She’s actually fallen asleep! Furthermore, she’s even fallen asleep whilst standing! You really shouldn’t sleep like that, your age doesn’t allow that!
‘My goodness, I give up!
‘What did I actually add a point onto?!
‘An unfinished building isn’t anything good indeed!
‘Should I knock her out and throw her into the sea?’
This thought lingered in Su Yang’s mind for a while. In the end, Su Yang felt that he should maintain his humanity… After all, respecting the old and loving the young was a traditional virtue of the Chinese people.
‘I think I’ve wasted my [Advanced Life Evolution Voucher]. Even though she’s a woman, she’s still a frail old lady. Sigh…
‘I wanted her to be a girl! A young and beautiful girl! 16 to 26 years old is fine! But you can’t just give me an 88 year old!’
‘She’s not even a girl’s mother, she’s her grandmother!’
Su Yang covered his face in despair.
He took out his phone and silently scanned the black armor, the black spear and the old lady who had fallen asleep standing into the virtual space. ‘Whatever it is, The point has been added already, so that makes us a family. I suppose I can’t abandon her after all.
‘Let’s settle her down first. I’ll see if she has any abilities later.’
Although monsters born from the use of [Advanced Life Evolution] generally didn’t have any additional effects in other aspects, it was very likely that they would have special items accompanying them.
For example, when Qing Zhu was born, it was accompanied by a green bamboo umbrella that could rain at any time.
‘Hopefully, this old lady will bring me a special item like Qing Zhu did last time.
‘If the accompanying item isn’t bad, at least I wouldn’t have made too much of a loss.’
Su Yang’s thoughts were already about how he could mitigate his losses.
After everything was done, Su Yang took a look at the scene. There were no signs of him raising any suspicion. He then looked up at the sky. Janet, the dragon king, was still spraying water. The fog that protected the mountains still remained the same.
Su Yang sent an order to Little Deeny, asking her to tell Janet that he was done. Su Yang had given the earphones on Janet on that day.
After a while, the fog dissipated. Su Yang drove to the beach to pick up Janet and placed him into the virtual space.
After that, Su Yang drove back home and parked his car in the garage before sneaking back to his room.
When he returned to his room, Su Yang entered the virtual space. All the little monsters were already there. Even Pool, Sanque and Bubbles, the three little monsters who were already living in the real world, had specially rushed back. When welcoming new monsters, the little monsters were never absent.
Now, all the monsters had formed a circle and were looking at the old lady curiously.
Even Gru, who could not get close, extended its branches and hung itself high, looking curiously at the old lady who was among the group of little monsters.
However, even though they were curious, the old lady did not pay much attention to them. She was still leaning on the wooden stick, her eyelids drooping and her lips pouting as she fell asleep.
Perhaps they had never seen her like this before, so the monsters all widened their eyes and stared at her. They did not dare disturb her. Even Little Deeny, the housekeeper, did not dare call her.
When Su Yang arrived, the little monsters finally found their pillar of support. They surrounded Su Yang and asked.
“Brother Su Yang, why is our new friend ignoring us?” Dagger Girl had her eyes closed as she tugged at Su Yang’s pants.
“Master, this madam seems different from us.” Little Deeny looked up at Su Yang curiously.
“Su Yang, is she Lady Building?” Little Hus stared at Su Yang with its husky expression that seemed to express “Don’t lie to me.”
Su Yang spreaded his hands and did not want to say anything. ‘Forget all of you feeling like you’ve been cheated, I myself already think I’ve been cheated.
‘All of you are still able to complain to me and demand for an explanation. But now that my Lady Building has ended up like this, who am I supposed to look for? My d*mn system?’
Su Yang comforted the little monsters and told them to calm down. He took a glance at Madam Building. ‘She’s probably not in the mood to explain her special item to me. Fine then, I’ll just take a look at it myself.’
With that thought in mind, Su Yang looked at Madam Building and called out her system interface. He wanted to see what special item she had.
[Unfinished Building +1: Advanced Life Evolution, obtained new talent, obtained an accompanying special item.]
‘What? A talent?
‘It seems that [Advanced Life Evolution] has come up with a little… Hmm, old monster that has a talent?
‘She’s stronger than Qing Zhu!’
Su Yang’s eyes lit up and he quickly opened the talent page.
[Innate Talent: Dark Twins]
Talent: This living being was born from the darkness, a Gemini from the dark galaxy. They are like the proxy of the darkness, walking in the darkness and bringing about the darkness to everything.
Note: Don’t try and understand this too much. I’m just telling you that there are two souls in her body (End).
Su Yang was speechless.
‘What the h*ll?
‘Two souls?
‘This old lady has two souls?’
Su Yang looked at the old lady who was sleeping, a strange image appeared in his mind.
“Madam Wang, have you eaten?”
“Grandma Liu, I’ve eaten already.”
‘Ok, having two souls in one body means that two souls are coexisting in the same body, so there’s nothing wrong if they have similar ages.
‘However, an old granny is already bad enough, but there’s another one? Do you think this is a nursing home?!’
On the other hand, Su Yang pondered for a moment. ‘According to the usual plot of having two souls in one body, shouldn’t one of the two grannies be passionate while the other is stern?
