I’ll Add Points To All Things-Chapter 872 - Platinum Race: Little Monster Soybeans
Chapter 872: Platinum Race: Little Monster Soybeans
After all, these Little Monster Beans had no idea what was happening.
They were originally just listening to No. 17’s lecture, “How to become a Little Monster Bean that doesn’t explode. How could you not affect other Little Monster Beans should you explode?”
Unexpectedly, halfway through the lesson, the lecturer was suddenly taken away by Su Yang, the devil!
Even though everyone was working for Su Yang and acknowledged him as their master, it did not mean that they did not remember Su Yang’s evil deeds, who would often catch the Little Monster Beans to make herbal dregs for “alchemy”.
Therefore, the Little Monster Beans fled in fear.
A few of them were so shocked that their mouths started to turn red, and they looked like they were about to explode!
Seeing this, there was a “Poof” sound in the air. Little Deeny hurriedly teleported over to calm the Little Monster Beans down.
As she comforted them, Little Deeny rolled her eyes at Su Yang coquettishly. “Master, you’re so desperate!”
Su Yang coughed. He felt that Little Deeny’s words were too ambiguous!
He gently kicked away the screaming No. 18 who was waving her little fists at his feet and then brought No. 17 back to the castle’s living room.
Su Yang placed No. 17, who was almost out of breath, on the table. He smiled and said, “No. 17, don’t panic. I’m not trying to do anything to you. I just want to give you a point.”
No. 17 jumped up and down in protest. “Dou! Dou Dou!”
Su Yang patted its head with such force that it almost fell onto the table. “Fine. Since you’re so excited, I’ll take it that you’ve agreed. Come, let’s give you your point.”
As he spoke, Su Yang turned on the system and tapped on the semi-transparent [+] symbol above No. 17’s head.
Two notifications popped up before Su Yang’s eyes.
[Are you sure you want to add points for the fifth time? The success rate for the fifth time is 1%. If you fail, the little monster will die.]
[Please use Lucky Stones to increase the success rate. Each Lucky Stone can increase the success rate by 5%. The highest success rate achievable is only 99%. To avoid failure, please use four Protection Talismans.]
‘What the heck?’
Looking at the notifications, Su Yang recalled that when the Little Monster Bean was awarded to him by the system, they were already at +4!
He had never added any points for them, and he had almost forgotten that they were all high-level little monsters.
At that thought, Su Yang grabbed No. 17 again and left the castle. He went to the beach and pasted the Lucky Stones and Protection Talismans on it.
To shut up the howling No. 17, Su Yang even stuffed a lucky stone into its mouth…
This scene made Little Hus, who was following them, sigh. “Su Yang, you really don’t behave like a human anymore. Why don’t you become a dog like me?”
Su Yang ignored it and ran off by himself. Then, he clicked on the system’s confirmation button.
Then, a green light shot out, and there was a huge explosion where No. 17 was at. Little Hus… Because it was left behind by Su Yang, was lucky enough to turn into a shooting star in the sky and disappear into the horizon, leaving behind a sentence that was getting further and further away. “Su Yang! You don’t even need to try, you’re already a dog! Ahhh!”
After he was done, Su Yang’s job was done.
Su Yang clapped his hands and confirmed that No. 17 only needed two hours to finish adding its point. Then, he returned to the castle happily.
Two hours passed in the blink of an eye.
When there were only 20 minutes left, Su Yang brought Little Deeny, Spirit Building, Little Hus, and Janet, who had been summoned back by Su Yang, to No. 17.
The reason why there were so many little monsters with him…
This was the first time that Su Yang had enlightened a little monster into a Platinum Race. Hence, their presence would be beneficial.
For example, Spirit Building. She had always been in charge of spiritual energy analysis. This time, she had never done anything to enlighten the platinum races, so she might be able to obtain some new clues from it.
Janet, meanwhile, had always wanted his race to evolve. Therefore, when he watched the Little Monster Bean evolve, he might have other experiences and know which direction he should be developing in.
As for Little Deeny, of course, she was there as a data processing transit.
And Little Hus…
Well… Nepotism.
They arrived at where No. 17 was at and spent the last 20 minutes patiently waiting.
With the completion of the point added, the cocoon of light around No. 17 started to crack, and eventually, light filled the sky.
Wherever the light went, everyone felt like they had been cleansed.
This was normal for a little monster reaching +5.
In Spirit Building’s research, she believed that every time a little monster became +5, there would be a transformation of the environment, like making it more… Advanced.
It also allowed the living beings in the environment to evolve to a higher level.
Meanwhile, Su Yang had a definitive guess as well.
…
After the light faded, what appeared before them was not a small bean the size of a fist, but a… strange creature.
It looked like a monkey who was about one meter tall, and its body was wrinkled. It had no fur, and its ears were long and thin. Its eyes were round, and its nose was like a carrot.
Just as Su Yang was sizing it up, another five-colored light descended from the sky and enveloped its body. Then, it weaved into a five-colored cocoon.
Su Yang heard another notification.
[Yellow Bean +5 meets the requirements to be promoted to Platinum Race. Please choose whether to promote or not.
Looking at the colorful cocoon before him, Su Yang could not guess what would happen if he chose [No]. ‘Would I end up killing No. 17?
‘Or, would I wipe out its entire race?
‘Or, perhaps… Would I cause the Little Monster Beans to never advance again?’
Su Yang was curious, but he did not choose [No]. Instead, he chose [Yes] obediently.
A moment later, the cocoon expanded and shrank, expanding and contracting as if it was giving birth to a new life.
After a full five minutes, the rays of light suddenly shrunk back into No. 17’s body.
After a while, the light disappeared, and the No. 17 that appeared before them did not seem to have changed at all. He still looked like a little monkey, and it felt like his life force had weakened. ‘Is it just my illusion?’
After a while, it opened its round eyes with a confused expression and examined itself curiously.
The confusion in his eyes slowly disappeared, and the light grew brighter before turning into joy!
“Soy! Soy!” No. 17 jumped on the ground in surprise, then waved his tiny arms in excitement.
Seeing how excited it was, Su Yang and the rest looked at each other before walking over and surrounding it.
When he saw Su Yang and the rest surrounding him, No. 17 looked at Su Yang warily and quietly took two steps towards Little Deeny.
Su Yang coughed. “No. 17, can you speak human language now?”
No. 17… “Soy?”
Su Yang was speechless.
‘Why has he gone from saying “Dou” to “Soy”?
‘That’s just too strange, isn’t it?
‘Could it be that he’s evolved like Pokemon, where even its tone would change upon evolving?’
Just as Su Yang was complaining, No. 17 stuttered in an awkward voice, “Su, Su. I know how to… Speak… A lit… Little.”
The words sounded extremely tired, and the words “a little” was as awkward as it could get. It sounded like a foreigner who was struggling to speak another language.
Su Yang asked, “How do you feel now?”
No. 17 said with difficulty, “Okay, okay, okay…”
Su Yang asked, “Do you feel good?”
“It hurts.”
Su Yang was speechless.
A drop of sweat rolled down Su Yang’s forehead.
‘Are you f*cking kidding me?
‘You’re trying to act coy with me, aren’t you?’
Su Yang asked, “Why does it hurt?”
Perhaps this question was too “profound”? No. 17 used its poor language to articulate his feelings.
After listening for five minutes, Su Yang and the rest finally understood what was going on. It seemed that the two “evolutions” had changed his body a lot. Even though his body was unharmed after the evolution, he could still remember the pain that was etched into his soul.
Su Yang looked at Little Deeny and asked, “When you were in human form, did you feel any pain?”
Little Deeny shook her head, obviously denying that fact.
‘I’m guessing the pain was probably caused by the five-colored light. Perhaps this is the process of becoming a Platinum Race?
‘But… Why would it hurt?’
Su Yang felt a little weird. He felt that he had too few clues now, and he should study them in the future.
At that thought, Su Yang coughed and said to No. 17, “No. 17, I am happy to tell you that you have successfully led your race to become a Platinum Race. From now on, you are a humanoid little monster race that can reproduce and survive.”
“How is it? Are you happy?”
No. 17 jumped up from the ground and shouted, “No, no, no!”
Su Yang was confused. “You’re not happy?”
“Not Little Monster Bean!”
Su Yang was confused.
“If you’re not a Little Monster Bean, what are you?”
No. 17 clenched his fist and pointed his thumb at his chest. “Soy, Monster Soybeans! Our names! We are the hardworking Little Monster Soybeans!”
Su Yang was confused.
‘What the hell is this?
‘He’s even changed the name of his race?’
Su Yang asked, “Why are you called a Little Monster Soybean?”
No. 17’s face turned red as he tried his best to explain.
Su Yang listened for another five minutes before he understood what it meant. It was more or less like when they were Little Monster Beans, the language they spoke in was “Dou”. After they transformed into a human form, their language changed to being “Soy”, so they’re called Little Monster Soybean.
Su Yang felt that…
‘What nonsense is this!
‘Luckily, you beans were speaking “Dous” when you were Little Monster Beans… Wouldn’t it have been a huge problem if you said something like “Da”?!
‘Plus…
‘With the way you guys are stuttering and speaking with that weird tone, are you sure you won’t cause a misunderstanding when you say “Soy”?
‘Who knows, you might end up saying something else completely as you speak.’
Su Yang grumbled in his heart, but did not say it out loud. ‘After all… Who cares? It’s not my name anyway.’
Just as Su Yang was thinking about this, the interface between the platinum and No. 17’s race popped up.
[Yellow Bean+5: Advanced Life Evolution succeeded and obtained a new special ability.]
Su Yang clicked on No. 17’s new special ability. He guessed that it would become the race ability of the Little Monster Soybeans in the future.
[Special Ability: Free Spatial Swap]
Ability: This creature has the ability to swap places between objects within a range of 10 meters.
Restriction: The user of the Spatial Swap is limited to the living being itself and other non-living objects that are not larger than a certain size.
Note: This ability is really just for easier housework. Please don’t use it elsewhere.
‘Hmm…’
Su Yang took a closer look at this ability.
Then, he discovered that it was actually “Teleportation”.
‘It’s a very ordinary and common ability, but it’s very practical.
‘In movies and comics, five out of 10 characters would have this ability, so it’s very common.
‘Of course, this also proves the excellence of this ability. Using it to do housework would definitely come in handy.’
Su Yang was very satisfied.
After all, they were just a bunch of Little Monster Beans. He did not need to ask for too much.
Then, Su Yang clicked on the shining Platinum Race icon in his system interface.
Su Yang clicked on it, and the race of the Little Monster Soybeans appeared before him.
[Platinum Race: Little Monster Soybean]
Introduction: Little Monster Soybean is a little monster race that evolved from beans. Their original form is Little Monster Bean. After many evolutions, they successfully broke through the upper limit of their race and grew into a Platinum Race.
According to the legends, they’re as innocent as babies, making them kind-hearted living beings who would never doubt others. Hence, they trust everything humans say.
They love to work, and they love to do what others tell them to do. In fact they would feel absolutely uncomfortable if they remain idle for a day.
Coupled with their unique ability to swap positions, many people like to use them as servants. After all, everyone likes a clean house.
But, remember, treat them well, because kindness should not be taken for granted.
Race Ability: Spatial Swap.
Race Reproduction Method: Entanglement.
Note: This Platinum Race’s “Monster Bean” form will pass through the process of reproduction. After it is born, it will directly become the infant form of the Little Monster Soybean. This creature is born with +5 and cannot receive any points whatsoever.
Looking at the introduction, Su Yang felt his face burning. ‘This d*mn introduction mentioned that many people love to use them as servants… Is it actually talking about me?
‘Why do I somehow feel offended?
‘Hmph!
‘Do I like using them as servants?
‘They’re the ones who like to work!
‘They’ll explode if they don’t work! Is that my fault?!
‘Fine, I’ll treat them better in the future.’
As he argued with himself, Su Yang had no choice but to change his bad habits.
Removing himself from his thoughts, Su Yang looked at the other monsters and asked, “Did you guys find anything?”
Spirit Building was the first to answer. She looked at No. 17 and then said with a serious expression, “I realized that after No. 17 became a Platinum Race, there seemed to be something wrong with his body.”
‘Something’s wrong?!’
Su Yang was shocked.
‘Isn’t the Platinum Race supposed to be the final form of evolution? Why would there be a problem?
‘Could it be a bug in the system? Or could it be a backdoor left by the system?
‘Huh…
‘No wonder I felt that No. 17 seemed weaker.’
