Chapter 408: Don’t Act Pitiful

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

It was a very complicated project to make the prosthetic limb change its appearance freely.

Huanhuan stayed in the small temporary laboratory and studied the introductory manual for alchemy for many days. She barely had time to do anything other than eat and sleep every day. All her attention was on improving the prosthetic limb.

The system was watching cartoons in her head, enjoying them.

Once, Huanhuan was doing an experiment when she suddenly heard a hot-blooded shout in her head—”I’m the man who’s going to become the pirate king!”

Her hands trembled in fear, and she almost blew up the crucible.

Another time, she was looking for materials when her mind suddenly exploded with a voice that said, “Burn, Little Universe!”

She was so frightened that she fell to the ground.

There were countless examples.

Huanhuan couldn’t take it anymore and called out the system. “Can you not watch the cartoons in my mind?!”

The system was aggrieved. “Why? I used to watch cartoons in your head. You didn’t despise me before.”

Huanhuan gritted her teeth. “That’s because you didn’t play the shows directly before!”

“Boo-hoo, Daddy is old. It’s not convenient for me to use earphones. I can only play them externally.”

Huanhuan sneered. “Don’t pretend to be pitiful. You’re a system. Do you need earphones to watch cartoons? If that’s the case, you’re really awesome!”

Seeing that the ruse didn’t work, the system snorted. “At most, I’ll watch another cartoon.”

Huanhuan reminded him, “Remember to turn off the sound!”

“How can I watch cartoons if I turn off the sound? I’m not watching a mime show. You can’t abuse me just because I’m old!”

Huanhuan felt a headache coming on. She could only choose to compromise. “Then can you turn down the volume?”

The system reluctantly agreed. “Okay.”

The system changed the cartoons to a TV show and turned the volume down.

Huanhuan seemed to hear someone crying in her head, but because the sound was too soft, she couldn’t hear it clearly. She could only hear a buzzing sound. She couldn’t take it anymore and asked, “Little Brat, what are you watching this time?”

The system sobbed. “I’m watching ‘Mom Loves Me Again’. I’m so touched! I can’t stop crying! Boo-hoo!”

Huanhuan: “…”

“The mother on TV is so great! Daughter, you have to treat your mother better in the future. It’s not easy being a mother! Boo-hoo!”

The corners of Huanhuan’s mouth twitched. “Daddy, you don’t even have a wife. How can I have a mother?”

“Then treat me as your mother! Boo-hoo, I’ve been treating you like a father and a mother all these years. It wasn’t easy for me to raise you! You have to be good to me. Don’t despise me for watching TV in your head, do you understand?”

Huanhuan slowly held her forehead. “Mom, can you stop crying? My head hurts.”

“I don’t want to cry anymore either, but I can’t help it. My tears can’t stop. They’re swollen now.”

Huanhuan said in pain, “Go find a game to play. That way, you won’t cry.”

“What game?”

“Like Minesweeper or poker.”

The system sniffed as he asked, “Are they fun?”

“They’re very fun! They suit you very well! Go and play!”

“Alright, I’ll download the games now.”

The system first tried poker, but he passed all the rounds in one go!

Then, he tried to play Minesweeper again. As expected, he succeeded easily.

Huanhuan was shocked.

‘Oh my God! When did my foolish father become so powerful?!’

She asked, “How did you do it? How did you clear the levels?”

“That’s easy. I cracked their program, read the game clearance data, and won everything.”

Huanhuan: “…”

She suddenly felt like crying!

She thought about life for three minutes in pain, then said to the system with extreme seriousness, “Go wash up and sleep.”

The system: “…”

In the end, the system did not wash up and sleep. He watched as Huanhuan lowered her head and fiddled with the small parts. He yawned lazily. “All the best. After you make this prosthetic limb, you’ll be able to officially complete this stage of study.”

The Manual for Alchemy Apprentices had already appeared in the Crystal Mall. When Huanhuan completed this, she would be a proper alchemy apprentice and could learn more complicated content.

While Huanhuan was busy making the evolved version of the prosthetic limb, the registration for upgrading to a medium-level beast city had ended. Other than Red Crystal City, which was in chaos, the other six low-level beast cities had chosen to sign up.

Every beast city was eager to try.

Feng Lan felt very upset when he saw that everyone was busy training every day and he was the only one who could not do anything. At the same time, he looked forward to Huanhuan finishing the prosthetic limb as soon as possible.

Huanhuan did not disappoint him. After several tests, she finally made the evolved version of the prosthetic limb.

She immediately found Feng Lan and attached the prosthetic arm to him.

This prosthetic limb was a little heavier and more agile than the last one.

Feng Lan directly transformed into his beast form, and his prosthetic limb also transformed into a wolf claw. He took a few steps back and forth and kept praising, “Very stable. Not bad!”

There was no fur on the surface of this claw. It looked very smooth.

But that wasn’t the most important thing.

Most of all, it was pink.

Huanhuan was helpless. Everything Little Pink made was pink. She wanted to change the color, but time was too tight for her to study the formula for changing the color. She could only use this pink wolf claw for now.

She said, “I’ll change it for you when I’m free.”

Feng Lan was very excited. “It’s okay. This color is quite nice!”

“…Young man, are you serious?!”

Feng Lan did not hesitate. “Of course.”

“Are your eyes okay?”

“Yup.”

Huanhuan’s heart ached. “Since there’s nothing wrong with your eyes, your aesthetics must have been thrown out the window.”

Feng Lan: “…”

No matter how much of an eyesore Huanhuan thought the pink wolf claw was, Feng Lan was very satisfied with it. He ran to Shuang Yun with his new prosthetic limb.

The two of them exchanged a few simple moves. Feng Lan’s new limb was even more useful than expected.

He was very happy. “Huanhuan made a new arm for me. I don’t have to worry about dragging you down anymore!”

Shuang Yun smiled in relief. “Not bad. You can train with us from now on.”

The teams from the other five low-level beast cities arrived in the City of 10,000 Beasts one after another. At the call of the temple, they gathered in the square under the divine mountain in the inner city.

In the middle of the square was a very large wooden box.

First Elder stood on the steps of the square and coughed twice to signal everyone to quiet down.
