Unable to Cultivate, I Can Only Raise Soul Pets Chapter 273 - Insect Club

Chapter 273: Insect Club

There were so many booths. They could not always eat in one place.

They had to eat a little at each location. It was too easy to expose its appet.i.te if it ate in one place.

If they ate too much, the other party would be unhappy.

w.a.n.g Che wanted the little caterpillar to eat everything that could be eaten first.

With the little caterpillar’s usual appet.i.te, it had to eat dozens of pieces of five flavors of staple foods and snacks every day.

If it did not eat much, the little caterpillar’s soul power cultivation would not increase so quickly.

Moreover, with the Metal Devouring Art, the little caterpillar could quickly absorb the nutrition.

Fortunately, w.a.n.g Che only let it eat this much every day. Otherwise, the little caterpillar felt that it could still eat.

It was like a little pig that could eat nonstop.

There were more than a hundred booths. w.a.n.g Che calculated that there were about ten booths with bug food.

The food of the Insect Food Home was relatively filling.

Most of the Contract Soul Masters’ bug soul pets were already full after eating one or two.

Therefore, normally, those who ate at the Insect Food Home booth, unless there were two bug soul pets, usually wouldn’t eat at other places.

w.a.n.g Che began to bring the little caterpillar to sweep through the second, third, and fourth booths…

After reaching the seventh booth, the little caterpillar said that it was 30% full.

In every booth, w.a.n.g Che did not let the little caterpillar eat too much. It was enough to eat a little.

If it encountered something that suited the little caterpillar’s taste, it would eat a little more.

This way, the person in charge of each booth would not be too surprised.

It would not cause any commotion and they could continue eating.

In addition, no one cared about bringing their soul pets to eat. There were too many people present, and they only cared about eating what they wanted.

Therefore, the journey was rather calm.

“Only 30% full.”

w.a.n.g Che pondered and said, “After eating at all ten booths, you’ll at most be forty percent full… Do you want to try the food of other soul pets?”

The little caterpillar shook its head.

What was so good about other soul pets’ food?

The little guy was very picky.

“Then after eating…” w.a.n.g Che thought for a moment, “Shall we go for another round?”

The little caterpillar’s eyes lit up and it immediately nodded, thinking that this was a good idea!

There were a few snacks that it had not eaten enough of!

w.a.n.g Che coughed and continued to bring the little caterpillar to the next house.

“Among these ten booths, the first nine don’t have bug staple food related to spatial energy…”

w.a.n.g Che thought to himself, “There are all sorts of mental energy bug staple food.”

It couldn’t be helped. There were too few dual attribute soul pets.

As for the little caterpillar’s staple food, it had already finished the ordinary spatial staple food that he had bought online.

The output of the Ethereal Lotus in the spiritual field was not high. It only matured in half a week. With every batch that matured, the little caterpillar could only process about 20% more seeds.

The production was not high, so there were not many spatial energy staple foods refined.

If the little caterpillar ate it every day, the output would not be able to keep up.

However, the spatial energy in the little caterpillar’s body slowly acc.u.mulated.

w.a.n.g Che wondered if there was another spatial soul plant.

Just the Ethereal Lotus was not enough.

“In the first ten booths, I chose staple food or snacks with five attributes.”

“It’s enough.”

“Spatial energy…”

As a n.o.ble and rare spatial attribute, not only were there few such soul pets, but they were also extremely difficult to train.

The word spatial meant that it had the ability to control s.p.a.ce. To ordinary Contract Soul Masters, it was very difficult to nurture it well.

From what w.a.n.g Che had seen in school, there were only two digits of students in the entire Forest Academy who had spatial soul pets.

For a first-rate university with nearly ten thousand students, it was very rare.

Even a top university like the North River Academy didn’t have many spatial soul pets.

If there were not many soul pets, there would not be many such staple foods on the market.

In addition, spatial resources were expensive and difficult to obtain, so there were even fewer such staple foods, especially for dual bug-type and s.p.a.ce-type.

Therefore, after eating one round, w.a.n.g Che did not see any spatial energy staple food suitable for insects until they arrived at the tenth booth.

There were fewer people in the queue at this booth.

“Insect Club.”

w.a.n.g Che perked up.

This one should be related to s.p.a.ce.

Because there were very few people in the queue, they arrived in a while.

When he arrived at the booth, the receptionist was a flat-chested girl. She looked very obedient, but there was no smile on her face.

When it was w.a.n.g Che’s turn, the receptionist smiled.

“h.e.l.lo, do you have a spatial soul pet? The staple food produced by our Insect Club is all related to s.p.a.ce.”

The receptionist’s mood seemed to improve.

After all, seeing a handsome man that pleased the eyes eased her mood.

“Can’t non-s.p.a.ce-type soul pets eat it?” w.a.n.g Che asked.

“This… it’s not impossible.” The receptionist was originally a little impatient, but she glanced at w.a.n.g Che and said very patiently, “Spatial energy staple food basically has no effect on other soul pets. It’s very wasteful to eat it…”

In short, they did not want to waste it.

w.a.n.g Che brought the little caterpillar up and pointed at it.

“To be honest, this is actually not a green caterpillar, but an Ethereal Worm. It wants to try your booth’s staple food.”

The Ethereal Worm was a translucent small soul pet.

It had two attributes, s.p.a.ce and bug-type, and was very rare.

Its species value was not high, less than 300. The evolution direction was a mystery.

Because it was too rare, it was very difficult for humans to find such soul pets, let alone nurture them into descendants and reproduce.

The Ethereal Worm was hidden in many small s.p.a.ces and was extremely difficult to find.

Its species value was not high, but the Ethereal Worm had very strong combat strength.

It was an extremely precious soul pet.

“…” The receptionist sized up the green caterpillar seriously.

Then, she laughed.

“Student, although I’ve never seen the Ethereal Worm and don’t know its exact appearance, but…” The receptionist’s mood gradually improved as she smiled and said, “I know that the normal state of the Ethereal Worm is translucent. This green caterpillar is very cute… but it’s not the Ethereal Worm.”

“The production of s.p.a.ce-type staple food is complicated. The raw materials are precious and the cultivation period is long. Student, please understand. Although you can eat for free at the Delicacy Conference, it’s better not to waste it.”

“If you don’t have a spatial soul pet, we might not be able to provide you with a staple food.”

The receptionist rejected w.a.n.g Che.

“I understand, I understand.”

w.a.n.g Che nodded, “Half-transparent, right? Actually, it only has the paint of a green caterpillar on its body. If you don’t believe me, take a look again.”

With that, w.a.n.g Che sent a voice transmission to the little caterpillar.

‘Use Insect Concealment.’

The little caterpillar immediately understood and its body slowly hid, turning into the same color as its surroundings.

However, it did not completely disappear and turned translucent.

This was the high-level use of Insect Concealment. The little caterpillar’s current Insect Concealment was getting closer and closer to the thousand-year soul skill, Insect Elimination.

It was very proficient in using it.

“Eh?” The receptionist was slightly stunned. She watched as the little caterpillar slowly turned translucent and was confused.

“This should be the Insect Concealment soul skill, right?” The receptionist asked in an uncertain tone.

“Feel it carefully. There are spatial energy fluctuations on its body.” w.a.n.g Che did not deny it directly.

The little caterpillar immediately circulated the little spatial energy in its body.

The s.p.a.ce shook slightly, emitting faint fluctuations.

In fact, with the current spatial energy in the little caterpillar’s body, it could also learn some basic spatial soul skills.

The reason why w.a.n.g Che did not let it begin learning was that the little caterpillar needed to train too many soul skills.

It was better to wait for more spatial energy to acc.u.mulate before learning.

The receptionist was not weak and could sense it immediately.

For a moment, she was confused.

This… was really an Ethereal Worm disguised as a green caterpillar?

“Little Lei, give it to them.”

A young man behind smiled and said, “In any case, we didn’t encounter many spatial-type bug soul pets this time…”

The receptionist nodded and took out a food box from the booth and handed it to w.a.n.g Che.

“This is a s.p.a.ce Crystal Leaf. There’s one inside. Normally, three is enough for a day,” the receptionist said.

w.a.n.g Che glanced at the price. Each piece was at least a thousand dollars.

It was several times more expensive than other staple foods.

This s.p.a.ce Crystal Leaf was two levels lower than the previous square leaf in terms of energy level, nutrients, and so on.

One normal square leaf was enough for a day.

Three of such spatial leaves were required for a day.

This was still the thousand-year stage.

Training spatial soul pets really cost a lot of money.

The little caterpillar returned to its original form and bit the s.p.a.ce Crystal Leaf, eating it cleanly.

“Ssss!”

The little caterpillar let out a cry, indicating that it tasted very good.

The cry of the Ethereal Worm was the same as the green caterpillar? The receptionist was puzzled.

“It said it tastes very good. Can I have a few more?” w.a.n.g Che asked.

The receptionist nodded.

There were not many booths for s.p.a.ce staple food, let alone those related to insects.

This Ethereal Worm probably did not find any suitable food and was hungry.

It ate five to six pieces in a row.

The little caterpillar was still not satisfied, so w.a.n.g Che did not ask for more.

w.a.n.g Che communicated with the little caterpillar.

The little caterpillar was now considered a food expert. Ever since it began to refine snacks, its sensitivity to various foods had greatly increased.

After chatting with w.a.n.g Che, he roughly understood the problem with the s.p.a.ce Crystal Leaf and some of the raw materials.

“How is it, student?” The young man behind walked up and asked with a smile, “Can you give some suggestions?”

w.a.n.g Che pondered for a few seconds and nodded.

“The s.p.a.ce Crystal Leaf is very good in all aspects. However, it used two low-level spatial soul plants. You want to use low-level soul plants to refine a staple food with the effect of an intermediate soul plant, right?”

“This can reduce costs and obtain greater profits. At the same time, it can satisfy the daily growth of most spatial soul pets.”

“Not bad.” The young man was slightly stunned. He probably did not expect it to be seen through so easily.

“Actually, there’s no need.” w.a.n.g Che smiled and said, “Generally speaking, Contract Soul Masters won’t choose to nurture spatial soul pets. Those without enough wealth won’t touch spatial soul pets in the early stages.”

“To most Contract Soul Masters who train spatial soul pets, they only care about the quality of the staple food and won’t care too much about the price. They don’t need to save money and you can just use intermediate soul plants to make what they need.”

“No matter how low-level soul plants are refined, they can’t achieve the effect an intermediate soul plant should have.”

“It is impossible to mix two low-level soul plants to achieve a greater effect.”

“I suggest that you directly use a low-level soul plant to refine the main food.” w.a.n.g Che suggested, “The other low-level soul plant can be refined into a snack and used with the main food. This is better than directly using two low-level soul plants to refine the main food.”

“The effects of the two low-level soul plants will not be superimposed on this s.p.a.ce Crystal Leaf. Otherwise, there will be more energy in this s.p.a.ce Crystal Leaf, but the efficiency will be lower.”
