Crazy! Are You Really A Beast Tamer?

Fang Mu had witnessed Xi Xi's upgrade in quality more than once.

Whether it was advancing in rank or enhancing quality, the commotion caused by Xi Xi's upgrades was much greater than that of other Mechanical Beasts at the same level.

When Fang Mu was promoting the Mechanism Fortress, it did not cause nearly as much of a stir! Explore stories at My Virtual Library Empire

It is important to note that the Mechanism Fortress is considered one of the elites among Mechanical Beasts.

Under repeated disassembling and reassembling, the speed at which Xi Xi's body merged had been continuously slowing down.

Xi Xi still retained its original mechanical structure, but the handle portion was undoubtedly much larger.

Moreover, this handle now fit more perfectly to Fang Mu's palm length and the lines of his hand.

The area below the handle was a large metal case housing the Mechanical Heart.

Around the Mechanical Heart, a large stock of various crystals that Xi Xi had formulated could be accumulated.

Beneath it was the mouthpiece Xi Xi used to devour trash.

Originally, Xi Xi's mouthpiece consisted of metal filaments about ten centimeters long, covered with large metal knots resembling teeth.

Now, these metal filaments extended again, reaching around twenty centimeters in length.

The metal knots on the filaments became much denser than before.

In addition to these metal knots, some semi-transparent crystalline substances started growing on top, which felt extremely smooth to the touch and were clearly not meant for crushing trash.

Besides these semi-transparent crystals, many gray-black filamentous substances had sprouted from the base of the metal filaments, entwined around them.

Previously, Xi Xi looked like a mechanical broom, but now Xi Xi resembled more of a cyberpunk-style mop.

Fang Mu used his Innate Divine Skill [Eye of Omniscience] granted by Fool's Shadow to investigate Xi Xi.

[Beast Name]: Xi Xi (A being created by the Contractor, who may name it as they wish.)

[Beast Species]: Weapon Holder / Broom Holder Species

Beast Level: Silver (10/10)

[Beast Element]: Mechanical

[Beast Potential]: Platinum

[Beast Quality]: Legendary

Skills:

[Garbage Recycling]: Refined extraction of trash absorbed into the body, digesting the useless parts and purifying the useful parts, then storing them in the space around the Mechanical Heart.

[Sealing Scenery]: Absorbs the surrounding scenery's imagery through free-moving filaments, condensing them into concentrated Scenery Fantasy Pearls, which can be absorbed by living beings, with absorption level related to mental strength and Comprehension Power.

Exclusive Features:

[Electronic Butterfly]: The Machinery Granted heart can condense an Electronic Butterfly every so often. The Electronic Butterfly can infest objects deemed as trash and lost of life, reviving the life form's strength from before death (the infestation time is related to the life form's previous strength).

[Machinery Granted]: Through the spiritually infused Metal Spiritual Materials absorbed, it creates gears embodying the essence of machinery that are compatible with any Mechanical Beast, enhancing the expansion of their innate potential.

[Machinery Spirit Steel Jade]: In the process of decomposing and digesting trash, the energy released is used to charge the Steel Jade. Once charged, Steel Jade falls off on its own. Embedding Steel Jade into flesh can transform the fleshy body towards a mechanical one, disassembling the flesh into Flesh and Blood Gears, and reassembling the body perfectly.

Steel Jade can increase the infection speed of the Electronic Butterfly on living beings.

Evolutionary Path: ???

With a single probe, Fang Mu understood what those semi-transparent smooth crystals growing on the metal filaments of Xi Xi were.

They were actually uncharged Steel Jade.

The exclusive feature [Machinery Spirit Steel Jade] that Xi Xi obtained upon reaching Legendary Quality could work in conjunction with the exclusive feature [Electronic Butterfly].

First, [Machinery Spirit Steel Jade] could invade the target's body, increasing the infection speed of the [Electronic Butterfly] on the target.

The exclusive feature [Electronic Butterfly] was extraordinarily powerful, granting Xi Xi, a functional Beast, an infinite upper limit in its offense capability.

The strength of Xi Xi depended entirely on the strength of the corpses controlled by the Electronic Butterfly.

Even at the Silver rank, Xi Xi could possess the combat power of Sequential Rank beings.

However, the mighty [Electronic Butterfly] was not without its weaknesses.

Firstly, Electronic Butterflies took an extremely long time to condense; even with sufficient spiritual instrument fragments provided for Xi Xi, it would take close to two weeks to condense a single butterfly.

Secondly, the Electronic Butterfly's infestation of life forms depended on the strength of the life form.

This meant that it took an exceedingly long time for Xi Xi to control those powerful mechanisms.

After gaining control over the Blood Race Prince Carlos of Sequence Nine, Xi Xi began to use [Electronic Butterfly] to exercise control over the Patchwork Hackers.

For those of Sequence Eight, Sequence Seven Patchwork Hackers, it would take Xi Xi's [Electronic Butterfly] at least several months to assume control.

If Fang Mu only had one or two Patchwork Hackers, there wouldn't be such a need to rush the assimilation speed of [Electronic Butterfly].

The key issue was that Fang Mu obtained over a dozen Patchwork Hackers during his time in JA City.

At the Stardisk Meeting, Fang Mu proposed to trade the Patchwork Hackers, and it was likely that many Star Wheel Members would search for Patchwork Hackers for Fang Mu.

By the time the Stardisk Meeting was convened again, Fang Mu would be able to gather a large number of Patchwork Hackers.

During his exploration in the vast Ancient Battlefield, Fang Mu took action against members of the Evil Heart Sect, and Shu Liangjun handed over fifty of the high-level Patchwork Hackers to Fang Mu.

Fang Mu felt as if he had mountains of gold and silver but nowhere to spend it, unable to convert it into his own strength.
