94. Watching the Circus Show


Edgar and Shu Shu returned after digging the spirit stones.


They found a spirit stone mine on that mountain. There were not many spirit stones in it, and the spirit stones did not contain much spiritual power either, but for them, it was already a huge surprise.


Edgar had re-cultivated into the jīndān period. For this reason alone, compared to Shu Shu, it was much simpler for Edgar to help those fallen beasts restore their beast cores. Now that they had some spirit stones, it was even more convenient . . . . Of course, if they wanted to make good use of the spirit stones, they also needed to do some studying.


After returning to their place of residence, Edgar and Shu Shu took a nap first and then began to learn the formation method—this was considered to be the main way to use spirit stones.


Shu Shu wrote down all the information he had obtained from his red bead. He recorded them on paper one by one and studied them together with Edgar. When he came across a part he did not understand, he would either find the answer from the red bead or try it a few more times.


The two of them studied very seriously. Within a few days, they had learned to arrange the simplest spirit gathering formation using the spirit stones. After the first spirit gathering formation was arranged, Shu Shu immediately put the little snake and the egg in it.


Shu Shu was initially a bit afraid of Xiao Bao, this little snake, and he actually didn’t adapt too well to being a father. After all, the child came too sudden. But Xiao Bao always hung around at his side these days, and after taking care of Xiao Bao for a while, he slowly accepted the child . . . or the snake.


"Xiao Bao, when you go to sleep later, you’ll sleep here, okay?" Putting Xiao Bao into the spirit gathering formation, Shu Shu smiled and talked to the little snake, who was already doubled in size.


The little snake nodded while his eyes narrowed in concentration and his body started to sway, looking very, very comfortable.


"Does Xiao Bao like it here?" Shu Shu asked again.


The little snake quickly nodded.


"Then Xiaobao, you stay by yourself for a while first. Mother will help you make a bigger one!" Shu Shu reached out and stroked the little snake's smooth head—his child was really smart; it had not been long since he was born, and he could already understand what he said!


Although this child looked unattractive, but at least he was smart, ah. If he had had children with a female hamster, he probably would’ve been still worrying about how to open the children’s spiritual wisdom to prolong their life span. And now? In a few years, he would be able to make the child work and support him to live comfortably!


Imagining the beautiful scene of himself reclining comfortably and calling the child out when he wanted to eat something and the child obligingly coming to bring him food, Shu Shu looked at the child with a softer gaze. He forgot that, in fact, the robots could already do a good job helping him with such things.


Chatting with Xiao Bao, Shu Shu continued to study the formation method.


Strangely, Shu Shu unexpectedly learned better than Edgar when it came to the subject of formation method . . . .


When Edgar laid out a formation, he always couldn’t help but want to lay out the formation neat and tidy. He subconsciously had to ensure that the distance between each spirit stone was the same and study why this kind of layout could gather spiritual power together . . . .


Wouldn’t being so fussy lessen one’s learning speed?


Shu Shu, however, was different. He often laid out formations based on feeling, and in the end, he actually did better than Edgar.


When Shu Shu began to learn the second formation method, Edgar was still having a go at the spirit gathering formation and even failed again.


"Granted, the size of these spirit stones is indeed different. But even if the size is the same, the amount of spiritual power contained in them isn’t the same. It’s really too difficult to keep a balance. With great difficulty, I finally calculated the right distance between these piles of spirit stones to make a formation. But if the piles of spirit stones are changed, then I have to recalculate." Edgar stared at the spirit stones in front of him with a tangled feeling.


". . ." Shu Shu goggled at Edgar. He watched Edgar use the computer to simulate the formation method and draw the formation method diagram with a weird expression. "Won’t this fussing around only make it overly complicated? Also . . . according to the red bead, those cultivators can’t always lay out a formation on level ground. Sometimes they also have to lay out a formation when cultivating in the wilds. They can even lay out a formation when fighting with others. You doing it this way . . ." Totally wouldn’t cut it. In addition, you had to calculate the size of each spirit stone and the amount of spiritual power it contained first and then use a computer to figure out the appropriate placement?


Edgar was silent. He also knew that it was unacceptable for him to do so, but he really couldn't understand this formation arrangement stuff.


How could an arrangement of a few stones produce all kinds of magical effects?


"Try to feel it with spiritual power. Sometimes you just have to rely on feeling." Shu Shu said and then looked at Edgar proudly. "Edgar, do you think I'm amazing? I’m smarter than you!"


"Yes, Shu Shu’s the smartest." Edgar could not help but hug Shu Shu and kiss him on the lips.


Shu Shu responded enthusiastically, groping Edgar's body and trying to seduce Edgar, yet Edgar remained unmoved—Shu Shu had just given birth to a child and had also been injured before, so it was better to do things slowly.


"Edgar, what's wrong with you? Why don't you want to mate?" Shu Shu was somewhat depressed. Shouldn't humans and beastmen be in heat all the time?


"You’ve just given birth to a child . . . ."


"I’ve fully recovered!" Shu Shu patted his chest and then rolled his eyes. "It shouldn’t be that you can’t do it, right?" According to his experience, which came from reading various novels, a man was most afraid of others saying that he could not do it. Once he was told so, he would definitely try to prove that he “could do it”.


They all said that poodles would hump everything and any time. In fact, hamsters also had a very strong desire, ah! Edgar surely couldn’t ignore him!


Edgar was indeed unable to control himself. He embraced Shu Shu and proved himself one time.


He definitely had no problem! In fact, he was almost stifled to death, but it had only been a few days since Shu Shu gave birth to an egg. He always felt that he was a little too beastly for putting his hand to Shu Shu just now.


At the end of the fun and invigorating sex, Shu Shu exhaled comfortably. "That’s really nice . . . . I was going to touch myself if you didn't come round . . . . But touching myself doesn’t feel this nice. After all, no one gives me spiritual power if I do it myself." When Edgar entered, he never forgot to give him spiritual power. He also never forgot to take care of him first and would even give him spiritual power ahead of time . . . . It was really pleasurable!


Edgar: ". . ."


Shu Shu did not want to have children anymore, and Edgar also didn't want Shu Shu to give birth to a child one after another. Therefore, although Edgar was excited, but he also took some appropriate measures and actually saved Shu Shu a lot of things. Not to mention other things, at least the clean up work was much easier. Shu Shu even directly refused to take a shower and just turned over and fell asleep.


Edgar took a shower and then lay behind Shu Shu and held Shu Shu in his arms, feeling contented.


After Edgar determined that he was not good at laying out formations, he handed over this work for Shu Shu to handle and started to study the various spirit grasses instead. Conveniently, he also thought of a method to turn his scales into fine powder.


The spiritual power in the spirit grass was difficult to preserve but easy to absorb, and you could eat the grass directly. Spirit stone, however, was different. The spiritual power in it would not dissipate easily, but if you ate the stone directly . . . . Except for some special races, nobody could digest stone, right?


Edgar thought of quite a lot of methods before he finally found a method to process the spirit grass without letting the spiritual power inside dissipate. And this method was borrowed from some alchemy recipes.


The spirit grass was made into a number of pills, and some of Edgar scales were also added into these pills . . . . After the preparatory work was done, Edgar found Reynolds and asked Reynolds to select ten fallen beasts. He was going to try to help these fallen beasts restore their beast cores.



Edgar said he could not guarantee that it would be successful, but the fallen beasts still scrambled for this opportunity. Soon, ten fallen beasts were presented in front of Edgar.


Edgar made these ten fallen beasts stay inside a spirit gathering formation. He then activated the spirit gathering formation and used the accumulated spiritual power to nourish these ten fallen beasts for a few hours. After these ten fallen beasts had recovered to their optimum state, he entered the spirit gathering formation and then gave each fallen beast a pill.


Didn’t they have to eat eggshell to restore their beast cores? Why did it change into a pill now? These ten fallen beasts were somewhat puzzled, but no one questioned it, and no one asked about the composition of the pill.


They ate the pills and continued to stay quiet. At this moment, Edgar started working . . . .


The beast cores of these ten fallen beasts were successfully restored, but their beast cores were very small. As a result, they were just like beastmen in their early years, unable to control their transformation.


This side effect was actually quite troublesome, but for these fallen beasts, it was not a big deal at all—as long as they could restore their beast cores, they were not afraid of anything!


Ten people's beast cores were restored in one go, which made the fallen beasts waiting to restore their beast cores in this newly built base go crazy.


"Ten people got their beast cores restored!"


"Maybe it'll be my turn before long!"


"I must perform well, and I won't be lazy anymore when training!"


. . . . . .


The fallen beasts were full of hope for life, and they were getting more and more energetic when they were training. Although their types were different, but they all listened to orders seriously and did their utmost to make all sorts of moves. They did not hesitate to do it even if they would be drained at the end of the day.


All beastmen liked to fight. But nowadays, the science and technology of the Beastman Empire were developing rapidly, and there were not many wars, so many beastmen had been living like a prince and never received high-intensity training. These fallen beasts were no exception, but now they were working hard to train and make themselves stronger . . . .


Shu Shu had arranged a huge spirit gathering formation using several football-sized spirit stones. The formation would be set up in the desert and would encompass the training ground that could accommodate tens of thousands of people. He planned to use spiritual power to improve the physique of those fallen beasts.


After doing all this, he sat on the high podium while holding the child in one hand and holding the egg in the other hand and watched the circus . . . no, watched the fallen beasts training.


Look at that group of tigers, they were walking on their feet!


Look at those lions, they were jumping into the ring of fire!


Look at those elephants, they were marching forward!


There were still many, many other animals, and all of them made all sorts of different postures . . . . On the earth, it was absolutely impossible to see so many animal performances at once, and it was even more impossible to see such a grand "circus show".


Shu Shu watched the show with keen interest and thought that it was extremely entertaining. Below, the fallen beasts who were training suddenly found that they seemed to be a lot more relaxed when they were training, and the speed in which their physical strength recovered had become faster.


They did not know the existence of the spirit gathering formation and only thought that they had become stronger after training. For a time, their interest increased greatly. After the daily training ended, some fallen beasts even agreed to stay put and then . . . began to fight.


This was a beast fighting show, ah! Shu Shu was even more pleased seeing this and even began to wonder whether he should encourage them and let them develop more performances.


Edgar, however, felt a little mixed up. His sub-beastman actually went to watch other beastmen all day long . . . . Otherwise, should he also join in and fight with others?
