Chapter 131: 109 This is the Pet System (First Update)_1
After reading the sign next to a garden, Number Two sat on Pingping’s hand, chatted with Beta, and then said to her, “This rule has been rigged. The rule-maker knows your psyche well. If you want to break this rule, what would you do?”
“Sneeze.”
“That would exactly fall into their trap. The plants here indeed need loud noises, but they require pleasant sounds. The hidden creatures here feed on a type of bird that sings, so they instinctively attack such creatures. And sneezes can never be considered pleasant.”
“I see… How do you judge what’s a pleasant sound then?”
“Your voice isn’t bad, just sing a song.”
Just when the live stream audience thought Pingping would sing a song to lift everyone’s spirits, Pingping skillfully opened her playlist and played a new song.
[…Sigh]
[I actually had expectations just now.]
[Alas…]
[Sister Pingping, we’re quite disappointed.]
Although she felt the audience was being rather inexplicable, her attention was soon captured by the creatures in front of her.
Under the stimulus of music, the plant-animals emerged from underneath the flowerbed.
Contrary to the expected horror scene, these plant-animals were very adorable.
It was a palm-sized creature that looked similar to a pixie, its body seemed to be made of light particles and was semi-transparent.
There was a large, fresh flower on its head, and right after appearing, it charged towards Pingping but stopped abruptly after getting a clear view of her size.
The plant-animals still retained some animal characteristics, and because of different animal traits, they had various features.
This type of plant-animal, called “Pixie Flower”, had a preference for things that are big.
Upon seeing the tall Pingping, its initial intent to attack was quickly replaced by admiration for her size, causing it to hug Pingping’s leg and press up against her.
Seeing the small creature suddenly appearing and clinging to her, Pingping felt her heart nearly melt.
Not just her, but the viewers in the comment section also expressed being charmed by its cuteness.
The entire Botanic Garden was constructed by the Immortal, and even without any interference, it would automatically absorb surrounding Spiritual Energy. Each plant-animal inside had been absorbing Spiritual Energy in a blessed and magical land, and had long evolved into high-quality Spirit Grass.
The better the object, the more exceptional its appearance, because Spirituality is revealed outwardly, easily attracting people.
Gently rubbing the flower on top of the small creature’s head, Pingping discovered that although the flower appeared delicate, it felt like it had an animal-like texture, proving that it was sturdier than she had imagined.
Moreover, this little fellow was quite clingy and could follow Pingping’s commands, which made it particularly interesting.
Although it couldn’t speak, it could express its emotions through movements and facial expressions, making communication not a problem.
However, after seeing the two squirrels on Pingping’s shoulder, the Pixie Flower’s mood became noticeably agitated.
The flower on its head began to change color, shifting from the previous pink to an intense red, and then it charged towards the two squirrels.
Facing the aggressive Pixie Flower, Number Three stepped forward.
With each step, the squirrel’s muscles expanded a bit more, and the black Demon King Squirrel at this moment seemed to transform into a real Demon King, standing in front of the Pixie Flower.
Its muscles bulged, its face appeared fierce, and the veins at its eyes looked ready to burst, making it seem as if it were possessed by a Demon God, becoming an earthly god of misfortune.
In front of the thirty-centimeter-tall Demon King Squirrel, the Pixie Flower’s strength was insignificant.
Directly grabbing the creature’s head, Number Three pulled forcefully, and the flower on its head was immediately plucked off.
Without its flower, the small creature instantly lost its fight and ran back, crying into the flowerbed, hiding in its burrow, refusing to come out again.
Holding its trophy, Number Three devoured the flower and then roared fiercely, “Who’s next?”
“So savage!” Number Two couldn’t help but say.
Although it looked lazy and indifferent, Number Three, after all, was the Squirrel Squad’s powerhouse, with unmatched brute strength.
And the Pixie Flower was among the weaker plant-animals it had chosen to highlight Number Three’s strength, which was just too appropriate.
The satisfied squirrel surveyed the devastated battlefield and then looked at Pingping proudly.
Scared now, human-like creature?
This is the might of us Squirrel Men!
By flexing its muscles, it let the human-like creatures understand that they were a force to be reckoned with, thus mitigating the adverse effects of Number Three’s previous cowardice and greed, which was also part of Number Two’s plan.
With such a neat arrangement, Number Two felt worthy of pride.
Yet, after watching the recent battle, Pingping and the live stream audience fell silent.
After a moment, Pingping couldn’t help but say, “Although I feel sorry for that little flower, that scene just now was quite cute, wasn’t it?”
[I feel that too, this big squirrel vs. little flower scenario is really cute.]
[Look, its cheeks are still moving!]
[This Easter egg is pretty good. We have the cage, we have the nest, but where to find the squirrel?]
Hearing Pingping’s words, Number Two’s smirk slowly faded.
Dragging the still excited squirrel, he roared angrily, “You call this cute! Buffed with muscles, like a Demon God, such a savage appearance, and you say it’s cute!”
