Chapter 372: Chapter 248: Servant Beasts, Mother of a Hundred

Translator: 549690339

The rain continued to scatter in the sky over Li City, leaving it dark and gloomy, giving people a sense of repression.

Early in the morning, Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi specifically went to the library which contained records of most Soul Pets, along with detailed information about them, in search of information about the Li City Evil Creatures.

Based on their appearances and attack methods, Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi roughly identified the Li City Evil Creatures as belonging to a certain race within the Demon Spirit type and Insect Species.

The library in Li City is located to the north of Li City Square, covering a horizontal area of almost 300 meters. It can be considered one of the grandest and most majestic buildings in the city. It also serves as a symbol of the unique Soul Pet culture in Li City.

There are many pillars in front of the library’s entrance, which are carved with complex and delicate patterns and texts. Some of them even bear ancient totems of thousands of years.

It was the first time Chu Mu had seen such a majestic library, and he couldn’t help but be filled with awe. As he passed through the entrance, he unintentionally glanced at the exquisite totems…

The totem carvings were vivid and lifelike, even possessing a certain kind of magical power that attracted Chu Mu’s thoughts, slowly immersing them into the ancient meanings expressed by the totems.

“What’s wrong?” Ye Qingzi noticed that Chu Mu had inexplicably stopped, and she asked with a puzzled look.

“It seems like I saw something, but it could be just an illusion caused by the totem.” Chu Mu shook his head and didn’t linger there.

Just now, Chu Mu had experienced a strange illusion, which should have been foreign to him, but it felt vaguely familiar, as if his Dreamland memory had left an imprint on that totem…

This feeling only lasted for a moment, and when Chu Mu tried to recall it, he couldn’t remember anything. So, he didn’t think much about it.

There was only one floor in the library, and the bookshelves were extremely tall, resembling rows of ancient trees standing tall. As Chu Mu stepped into this grand and solemn library, he felt himself being looked down upon by a giant of knowledge, unconsciously feeling ignorant and inferior.

There are countless Soul Pets, each with different appearances and abilities. Even the same Soul Pets may have distinctive characteristics. Entering such a library, Chu mu realized the enormity of the Soul Pet’s world and wondered how many people could actually store all the knowledge about Soul Pets in their minds.

The number of books was impossible to estimate, and Chu Mu knew that this was the crystallization of thousands of years of wisdom from the past generations. Without their guidance, it would be even more difficult for humans to conquer Soul Pets, and the current splendid Soul Pet civilization would not exist.

This library, steeped in cultural heritage, was worthy of Chu Mu, a Soul Pet Master with conviction, to hold in the highest esteem!

The vast sea of books made it extremely difficult to find a non-mainstream Soul Pet without reference to its appearance, skill descriptions, and abilities.

Ye Qingzi and Chu Mu embarked on their search in the “Insect Chronicle” and the “Demon Spirit Beast Chronicle” for the race of the Li City Evil Creatures based on their memory.

The Li City library’s collection of Soul Pets was very diverse. When Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi were searching for Soul Pets based on the appearance and abilities of the Li City Evil Creatures, they discovered many similar Soul Pets. These creatures were rarely mentioned in the libraries of some Level 10 cities. However, the library in Li City already had illustrations by painters and introductions by scholars.

“There are some similarities, but they don’t seem to match the Li City Evil Creatures very well. For example, this Insect Species of the Zhe Eater Clan is very similar in appearance to the Li City Evil Creatures, but the book doesn’t mention their ability to become invisible. And their hind legs don’t seem to be as developed as the Li City Evil Creatures’,” said Ye Qingzi, her head lowered. After saying this, she turned to pass the book to Chu Mu.

While Ye Qingzi was speaking, Chu Mu was looking down at his search and didn’t realize that she was already so close to him. As a result, when he turned to take the book from her, he accidentally dropped his own book on the ground.

Chu Mu hesitated before apologizing with a smile and squatting down to pick up the book.

Ye Qingzi also squatted down to pick up her book. As she lifted her head, their faces were now very close.

Chu Mu hesitated again, with Ye Qingzi’s delicate face only ten centimeters away from him. He could even feel the fragrance from her sexy lips.

Quicker in her response, Ye Qingzi stood up and tried to hide the flush on her face beneath her falling hair.

Chu Mu also stood up, seeing Ye Qingzi suddenly fall silent. Feeling awkward, he didn’t know what to say next, as it was obvious that he had lost control of himself just now.

The two had been together for quite some time. At the beginning, Chu Mu was only interested in Ye Qingzi’s beauty and temperament, especially her intelligence and rationality which he admired most.

Just like when Ye Wansheng had asked Chu Mu if he had no interest in his sister. Chu Mu had definitely considered her. He had shown his longing through that small movement just now, even though every man would exhibit a similar lustful expression when faced with an attractive woman…

“What were you saying just now…?” Finally, as a man, Chu Mu thickened his face and broke the awkward atmosphere.

Ye Qingzi seemed to have come to her senses and quickly flipped through the book to find the Soul Pet she had just mentioned…

After a long time of searching, Ye Qingzi still couldn’t find it. In the end, she sighed, closed the book, and said, “I just saw a very similar Soul Pet, but I don’t think it’s the Li City Evil Creatures. Have you found any clues?”

“Yeah, let me find it for you.” Chu Mu’s pages had become disorganized due to the fall, so he had to look for it again.

Ye Qingzi watched Chu Mu quickly flipping through the pages, but no matter how hard he searched, Chu Mu couldn’t find the soul pet he had just locked onto. His face gradually showed embarrassment.

Suddenly, Ye Qingzi burst out laughing.

She reached out and took Chu Mu’s book, then placed her book in Chu Mu’s hands.

Chu Mu looked confused at first, but then he quickly understood and laughed sheepishly.

After comparing the two soul pets they found, they discovered that while both resembled the Li City Evil Creatures, they were indeed not those creatures.

In the end, Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi specifically consulted the soul pet scholars in the library about these two soul pets.

Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi approached an old scholar with a goatee, who examined the soul pets they had found for a while, occasionally going to some old bookshelves to fetch and flip through books placed on the top shelves.

“I think this thing is not a soul pet.” Finally, the old scholar drew a conclusion.

“Not a soul pet?” Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi were both surprised.

“In fact, they are considered soul pets, but they are a special group among soul pets, called Servant Beasts.” The old scholar said.

Ye Qingzi and Chu Mu exchanged glances, clearly both had never heard of the term “Servant Beasts.”

“The definition of Servant Beasts can be: the soul pets of soul pets… ”

“Most of these Servant Beasts appear in the Insect Species soul pets, for example, a queen ant of the Ant Tribe. They have a very strong reproductive ability, constantly breeding ant warriors to form a massive ant army. In fact, these non-normal reproductive creatures are difficult for humans to sign soul contracts with because they have already signed soul pacts with their ‘mother’.”

When the old scholar explained, Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi both understood a bit more.

“Actually, Servant Beasts are not considered soul pets because they are actually a special ability of these unique soul pets. Their own combat power might not be strong, so they fight using their Servant Beasts and have them gather food for them…”

The goateed old scholar cleared up Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi’s doubts with a few words.

Dongqing had mentioned that the attack on the city guard was man-made, and Chu Mu was puzzled about how one person could control so many soul pets.

If the Li City Evil Creatures were all Servant Beasts, then as long as the Soul Pet Master manipulated the “mother,” they would be able to control all the Li City Evil Creatures.

“This kind of ability is terrible. If there are many offspring, it’s equivalent to controlling an entire group of soul pets; are you talking about the creatures that appeared in West Street?” The old scholar asked.

“Yeah.” Chu Mu nodded.

“Servant Beasts equal Seventh Rank Commander Level, some of them also have their self-strengthening ability… The number of creatures could be hundreds, or even more…” The old scholar looked elsewhere, seemingly estimating the strength of that soul pet.

After a moment, the old scholar seemed to have drawn a conclusion and said, “You don’t have to worry about this matter.”

“Why?” Ye Qingzi asked in confusion.

“That ‘mother’ is not within your current level to deal with.” The old scholar said.

“How strong is the mother?” Chu Mu asked curiously.

The old scholar mentioned the concept of Servant Beasts. If hundreds of Li City Evil Creatures were all offspring of that “mother,” then how terrible was that “mother” soul pet since it equated to the combat power of a large group of soul pets!

“The combat power and quantity of Servant Beasts depend on the strength of the mother. There might be some ambiguity when using ranks and levels to describe, though…” fr𝐞𝐞𝚠e𝗯𝗻ovel.c𝐨m

“The race determines the number of offspring the mother can give birth to. Ten Mothers – War General Level, Hundred Mothers – Commander Level, Thousand Mothers – Monarch Level… Unless there is a mutation, the number of offspring will not change with the increase of the mother’s strength.”

“For example, a War General Level Ten Mother, even if strengthened to Monarch Level, can only breed about ten Servant Beasts at most. Of course, the combat power of its ten Servant Beasts will be very strong, not inferior to an un-strengthened Hundred Mothers at the Commander Level.”

“What you encountered this time was a Hundred Mothers, a Hundred Mothers is at the Commander Level, with hundreds of offspring…”
