《Start With Contracting Sprites》Chapter 75: Building And Enchanting Dreams
Advertisement
"Ding! During the baptism of evolution, your sprite comprehended a new unique skill: 'Dream building'."
'Dream-building': Constructing dreams can be used as the foundation for other illusion-type unique skills. It can also extend to different usage methods.
Note: The effect of 'Dream Building' is related to the sprite's spiritual force, mental strength, intelligence, cognition, and so on.
"This unique skill…"
'Dream building' was no longer a unique skill in the general sense but more like an ability that could be used in multiple ways.
This kind of unique skill was usually only mastered by gifted ghost-element sprites.
Even though he could use the interface to unlock the training plan, learning it would definitely take a lot of effort.
"The evolution really made Silkworm Baby mature, it can even learn unique skills on its own now."
Su Hao looked at the various stats of Silkworm Baby… oh no, Reverie Butterfly.
Everything improved.
Its spiritual force increased by about 30 points.
Its physique improved by a lesser margin, because its absorption of the spirituality from the materials was mainly focused on the Fog Flower and the Emerald Bamboo during the evolution.
"My spiritual power… increased by nearly 70 points. Hmm, that was expected."
Even though the Dream Butterfly's attributes were still considered Wood-element, its various characteristics were inclining towards Illusion-element.
There was no need for Su Hao to unlock it to guess whether the next stage would be Illusion or Illusion Wood.
On the interface, there was another skill written on it.
The term "spiritual force-enhancement cultivation" also surfaced.
Originally, he could only train Silkworm Baby's spiritual force a little through basic cultivation…
"From now on, mental strength is the key for the cultivation of Reverie Butterfly."
"And characteristics too."
[Characteristics: Enchantment (changeable) < click to view >]
Su Hao touched his chin.
"This is… an undiscovered new characteristic?"
Wood-element sprites had three characteristics: Miraculous Spring, Thorns, and Growth.

The Growth in sprites' spiritual force could promote plant growth, and was often more compatible with productive sprites.
Miraculous Spring could increase a sprite's endurance while Thorns could increase the lethality of its attack.
As for Bewildering Dream…
Su Hao didn't have time to think anymore.
After the light dots of the cocoon completely dissipated, a beautiful sprite spread open its wings and flew away.
It had two pairs of translucent light green wings, with very beautiful emerald green patterns on them. Its body was light yellow, different from its roundness in the past, the current Dream Butterfly was slim and graceful.
Its short legs were still short, but the arms near its head grew a little longer.
Its big eyes were still as watery as when it was in the Silkworm Baby phase.
Above its head were two bright yellow antennae, with pea-shaped ends inclined towards dark green. Like a pair of probes, they tinkled and observed their surroundings.
"Gurgle! Gurgle! Gurgle!"
A crisp, pleasant voice traveled into everyone's ears through the enclosed space.
It was the same cry, but with a different flavor.
Silkworm's enormous transformation.
It went from a chubby Silkworm Baby to an elegant Reverie Butterfly.
Sigh, I can't hug it like a bolster anymore.
"Su, Su Hao, your Silkworm God… No, this sprite…"
Liu Ren stuttered for a while before he finally managed to say something, "Did it got swapped?"
"This isn't a sprite!"
Old Chen and Chen Er were dumbstruck. They were as stiff as stone.
Coach Xiong wanted to smoke a cigarette to calm himself down. When he saw the students and Teacher Chen standing around, he could only put it back down.
He looked at the graceful figure hovering inside the glass window.
He fell into deep thought.
What exactly had he seen?
"This, this, the sprite evolved from Silkworm Baby is…?!!"
Su Hao took a deep breath. His eyes widened, and his palm pressed against the glass window.

"Shocking!"
"Shocking!"
"Crazily shocking!"
"Silkworm Baby can actually evolve into a completely new form!"
...
Within the Wood-element field.
Silkworm Baby… ah, that's not right, Reverie Butterfly flapped its wings and circled a few times before landing in the middle of the materials pile.
It took a look. There was still a lot left.
It can't waste the materials.
It flew up, spitting out threads which nimbly weaved into a net. The net netted all the evolution materials… enveloping everything regardless they had their spirituality sucked dry or not.
Carrying a net of materials, Reverie Butterfly flew towards the exit.
"Gurgle ~ Gurgle ~ ♪"
It flew and flew, landing on top of Su Hao's head.
It could lie on his head again.
Happy.jpg.
"Gurgle~"
Little Fire Crow flew around Reverie Butterfly continuously, going one round after another.
Boss is flying!
But why did Boss's appearance change so much after evolution?
Why were Boss's wings different from his?
Why was the dumb human looking at Boss with such a shocked expression?
Why…
Little Fire Crow sank into contemplation.
...
After walking out of the training room, Coach Xiong still couldn't conceal the shock from inside him.
"Su Hao, have you thought about how to name this new sprite?"
"Let's call it Reverie Butterfly for the time being. The little guy said that it comprehended a unique skill related to dreams. I think it's precisely its mental strength and outstanding comprehension of illusion unique skills that allowed it to evolve into a completely new form."
Reverie Butterfly nodded.
Yes, yes, yes, continue to praise me.
Coach Xiong felt that it made sense.
During the Silkworm Baby phase, it had already learned the unique skill from the illusion element - "Stunning", as well as other high-level unique skills. This showed that it had a high comprehension of unique skills.
"The fact that it can successfully evolve should also have something to do with the materials you prepared."
Coach Xiong wasn't a Sprite Cultivator, but he had a lot of experience. "Analyze the materials you've prepared. It's best to write a paper. If you can reverse engineer the evolution conditions of the Reverie Butterfly, it'll be very, very beneficial for your future development."
"Silkworm Baby evolving into a new form is not a small matter. The news will spread very quickly. Don't head out too far for the time being and keep your phone connected."
"Well, don't worry, this is a good thing… It depends on how much benefit you can get from it."
...
Yunhua City.
At the Sprite Evolution Research Center.
This research institute had world-class equipment and various facilities. It was even more luxurious than the Association of Sprite Cultivators in Yunhua City.
The owner of the research institute was none other than the Sprite Cultivator known as the "pioneer of evolution" who discovered the evolution of 18 new sprites—Chen Ping, Master Chen.
At this moment…
Master Chen, who was wearing glasses and had messy hair, started researching sprites like Silkworm Baby again.
The evolution conditions needed for the Six-Winged Flying Silkworm were determined by his hands.
"This is strange. There's clearly an unknown, unstable fragment hidden in the genetic sequence…"
Master Chen Ping was very sure that Silkworm Baby had a third evolution pathway.
It felt as if there was another area in a puzzle that was shrouded in black mist.
That spot was an undiscovered area.
But it had to exist.
It was engraved in the genes of a sprite like Silkworm Baby.
But with his experience, he still hadn't achieved any valuable results even after researching for a long time. He couldn't even find a direction—the evolution direction of Silkworm Baby's third pathway.
At this moment…
A young man who was similarly wasted ran hurriedly into the laboratory where Master Chen Ping was.
He leaned on his knees and took two breaths before saying, "M-Master, there's… a Silkworm Baby that evolved into a new form!"

The Legend of Ghost
This is a quick novella origin story to one of fan-favorite characters in the ZERO universe, Sam Dobbs, a.k.a. Slade Gardner, a.k.a. the Ghost. I wrote it for current ZERO series fans, after many insistent, fervent, teary-eyed demands. Still, I think it pretty much works as a stand-alone, so I'll post it here. (He gets the name Ghost later, not as part of this story...this is just the why he decided to do what he did, being slightly insane and all.) Lots of easter eggs for current fans. 15k words total, chapters will be approx. 2.5k each. Oh, and if you get turned off by crazy, hyperintelligent antisocials being crazy, hyperintelligent antisocials, this isn't the story for you. ;)
