‘I didn’t expect that I would have to take so long to find the item.

‘However, since I really need this item, I’ll have to take as much time as needed then.’

Hence, Su Yang encouraged Janet and Little Hus.

In the afternoon, the special effects team led by Su Yang had completed the preliminary division of labor for the special effects. They even completed the general outline of the special effects.

Su Yang assigned the department’s supervisor that he had poached over to the film crew of “Wolf Warriors” to personally discuss the special effects.

Because Wu Feng was a little too late when he looked for Su Yang, he had only filmed the parts that did not require special effects, there was some extra time to communicate about the special effects. Therefore, the timing would have been perfect if they rushed over there at that moment.

After the day ended, Su Yang left work and returned to the villa.

Seeing that Janet did not contact him for the whole day, Su Yang still gave them a call to ask about the situation. Unfortunately, it was still bad news, Little Hus and Janet had almost scoured through the entire Shanghai, but there was nothing that could be turned into a avatar for Little Deeny.

‘Could it be… That such an item doesn’t exist?

‘That’s definitely impossible. The world is so big and filled with various kinds of stuff, so how could there not be something that could become an avatar after adding a point onto it?

‘It’s probably just as Little Hus has said, the requirements for this item is too strict, so it’s very difficult to come across.

‘For example, if I said that I want to eat fruits, I could go to any fruit shop and buy fruits for myself.

‘However, if I said I want to eat lychees, then there might be some fruit shops that did not have lychees, hence the chances of buying it would be lower.

‘Therefore, when I said that Little Deeny could use an avatar, it was the equivalent of me saying I want to eat some lychees from Jiangnan before the rainy season, I want the type that had red skin and had been slightly bitten by a worm…

‘Such a request is obviously too detailed, so it would be very difficult to find.’

At the thought of this, Su Yang knew he was looking at a long term job. He looked at the time and realized that it was already night time. ‘Janet and Little Hus have been out for almost 24 hours. Even if they’re monsters, they’re probably tired.’ Therefore, Su Yang decided to let them go home first and they will come up with another plan.

‘Tang Jing has always been working from 9am to 9pm from Mondays to Saturdays and normally wouldn’t arrive home until late.’

Su Yang placed Little Deeny on the table. The screen flickered and projected an image of Little Deeny. As Su Yang played with Gru, Dagger Girl and Tang Xiaomi, he chatted with Little Deeny as well. “Little Deeny, the plan for getting you an avatar might have to be… Put on hold for a long time.”

Little Deeny smiled and shook her head. “It’s alright, Master. I can wait.”

Even though that was what she said, Little Deeny’s expression was obviously sad. Obviously, having a body that could walk outside was very important to her, who has always been trapped from the outside world.

Su Yang pretended to pat her head. Although it was just a projected image, it did manage to comfort Little Deeny.

It was Tang Xiaomi’s first time meeting Little Deeny, hence she walked over curiously with 2 Quickgold Monsters in her arms. She opened her cute eyes and asked, “Su Yang, who is she?”

Little Deeny smiled and waved at Tang Xiaomi. “Hi, Xiaomi. My name is Little Deeny. I’m Master Su Yang’s AI butler.”

Tang Xiaomi’s mouth opened wider and wider. “Wow… that’s awesome!”

Su Yang smiled as he hugged her in his arms. ‘This little girl is at the age where she’s curious about anything and everything.’

The 2 Quickgold Monsters jumped out of her arms and bounced to Dagger Girl’s side.

Su Yang looked at the 2 little monsters that looked like mercury. He suddenly remembered that he was in a hurry to leave the house last time, so he forgot to look at their characteristics interface.

‘As a subsidiary race of Dagger Girl, they should have something special, shouldn’t they?’

Su Yang turned on the system and looked at the 2 Quickgold Monsters.

Immediately, the Quickgold Monster’s characteristic interface appeared before him. Just like the Little Monster Beans, the Quickgold Monster appeared in the form of a race.

[Monster Race: Quickgold Monster (+3)]

Introduction: A monster race that only has basic biological instincts and extremely simple intelligence. It is a subsidiary race produced from Fruit Knife+3. Its entire body is made of liquid metal and has all the characteristics of metal. It is very ductile, conductive to electricity and heat.

The Quickgold Monster’s body is similar to that of a mouse. Its body is soft and cold. Usually, it would transform into a pool of silvery-white liquid metal and stay on its owner’s body. However, when it encounters danger, it would curl up into a ball and return to its original shape.

The Quickgold Monster did not have high requirements for temperature. As long as it is not in an extremely cold or extremely hot environment, they will be able to survive. However, the Quickgold Monsters prefer places that are hotter.

The Quickgold Monster’s method of reproduction is rather special, it reproduces by splitting itself. After consuming enough metal, the liquid metal on the Quickgold Monster’s body would drop.

There are 2 types of liquid metal that fall off. 1 is lifeless but has the characteristics of liquid metal and could become an important chemical material.

The other type of liquid metal is the Quickgold Monster’s egg. The Quickgold Monster will then carefully pick it up and then carry it in its arms to nourish it. After 7 days, the egg will hatch into a new Quickgold Monsters.

There are no differences between both types of liquid metal from the appearance, texture, and so on. Only the Quickgold Monster will be able to tell the difference. This is their method of reproduction to protect their eggs and confuse their natural enemies.

Likes: Like to stay by the metal’s side and consume it.

Dislikes: Danger. Quickgold Monsters are timid by nature, please do not scare it.

Note: Although it’s a subsidiary of a knife, does it have to be sharp?

‘What?’

After reading the introduction of the Quickgold Monster, Su Yang realized… ‘That really is the case.

‘These monsters don’t seem to have any special abilities, nor does it have any interesting talents, so it could only be used as toys to play with.

‘The Little Monster Beans, on the other hand, possesses simple intelligence and can obey commands. On the other hand, the Quickgold Monsters don’t seem to have much use other than consuming metal and reproducing…’

Just as Su Yang was thinking about this, the door opened. Su Yang turned around and saw Janet carrying Little Hus back.

Even though he was a shark, and had the physique that surpassed that of a human, after sitting outside for a day and walking for so long, Janet still looked tired.

Little Hus, on the other hand, was still very excited. It kept saying, “Wifey, that dress really suited you. Are you really not going to buy it?”

Su Yang was speechless.

‘What the hell?

‘Are you sure you’ve been focusing on your work?’

After encouraging Janet to take a rest, Su Yang dragged Little Hus to the side and ‘tortured’ it. “Did you really help me look for the items that could have points added onto it?”

“Su Yang! I really did!”

“Are you sure you weren’t courting girls over there?!”

“No! No! I’m innocent!”

Seeing that Little Hus refused to admit it and Su Yang could not find any loopholes in its statement, he could only rest his case.

It was already late and Su Yang could not continue to go out on his search. Therefore, he could only give himself a break.

When he was free, Su Yang looked at the Quickgold Monsters that were “jumping around behind Dagger Girl like 2 little springs”. Su Yang suddenly felt like… Raising them.

Perhaps it was because he grew up in a village, Su Yang loved to play with flowers, plants, and raise small animals. When he saw animals that did not exist in the world, he would have a sudden desire to breed them.

Therefore, Su Yang thought that he might as well go to the storeroom and gather everything that he had packed when he was cleaning the villa.

There were several unwanted water pipes inside. Those pipes were rusty, so they were obviously made of metal.

Su Yang picked up a small Quickgold Monster and poked it with a water pipe.

The Quickgold Monster curled up into a ball and shivered.

‘What…

‘This thing is really timid…’

Su Yang thought about it and placed it on the coffee table. Then, he placed the water pipe beside it and walked away.

After a while, the liquefied metal slowly ‘grew’ limbs and a head. It looked around carefully like a little mouse, then it sniffed the unwanted pipe.

Even from far away, Su Yang could see the joy in the Quickgold Monster’s eyes. Even the silver color on its body was flowing faster.

A living being’s natural instincts was to reproduce. Therefore, when something that could promote its reproduction was placed in front of it, the Quickgold Monster could no longer hold back. It grabbed the unwanted water pipe with its two small claws and started chewing on it.

The water pipe was visibly shrinking, and the silver color on the Quickgold Monster’s body began to glow.

As the water pipe disappeared bit by bit, the color on the Quickgold Monster’s body became thicker and thicker. Finally, a small ball of silver liquid slowly separated from its body.

The liquid fell from its body and landed on the table. It rolled twice and looked even rounder.

The Quickgold Monster did not pay much attention to the silver liquid and continued to eat the next unwanted water pipe.

Su Yang walked over and picked up the ball of silvery white liquid. He pinched it in his hand. ‘It’s soft and cool, the same texture as the Quickgold Monster.

‘However, according to the instructions of the system, after the Quickgold Monster ate the metal, 2 types of liquid metal would fall off its body. 1 is lifeless which is meant to be a chemical material. The other is the type the Quickgold Monster would pick up, and after 7 days, hatch into a new Quickgold Monster.

‘Therefore, this liquid metal hasn’t been taken seriously by the Quickgold Monster, which means that it’s just a normal liquid metal?

‘But… is it really able to differentiate so clearly?’

Just as Su Yang was curious about the breeding method of this Quickgold Monster, he suddenly heard Little Deeny’s loud voice. “Master! Little Hus said there’s a new discovery!”

Little Deeny had never shouted so loudly before, she had always been speaking with a gentle voice. Now that she suddenly shouted, Su Yang was startled.

His hand shook, and the silver liquid metal almost fell to the ground.

Right after that, Little Hus’s voice reached Su Yang’s ears. “Su Yang! I can smell the fragrance of the thing in your hand! It can be an avatar for Little Deeny!”

‘This… This thing in my hand?’

Su Yang lowered his head and looked at the liquid metal that the Quickgold Monster had given birth to after eating too much.

‘This thing… can have a point added onto it and turn into Little Deeny’s avatar?’

Su Yang was slightly surprised.
