Chapter 645: Chapter 404 Jiu You Strange Change_2

[Alien Species: Mimicry]

[Grade: Superior]

[Fusion Success Rate: 65%, 26%, 88%]

[Upgradeable: Yes]

This was one of the core abilities of the cunning genius.

Ji Xinghuo originally planned to purchase "Organic Change" and "Inorganic Restoration," which form the foundation for the cunning genius’s myriad transformations, but Jiu You’s "Dark Matter Mutant" already possessed similar capabilities.

With just the integration of "Mimicry," Jiu You would have the same transformation ability as the cunning genius.

Mimicry could only change into the target’s appearance, imitate the voice and iris, but it did not possess the target’s abilities.

Moreover, it required contact with the target to transform and had a time limit.

Ji Xinghuo hesitated for a while between "Mimicry" and "Flow Barrier."

The Flow Barrier could significantly augment Jiu You’s defense; its spiritual energy reached the Fourth Level, supporting a very sturdy Flow Barrier that greatly enhanced resistance against energy damage. Alternating with the King of Annihilation’s ability to shift between reality and illusion, it was even harder to kill.

However, considering that as long as the Supreme Dark Magic Ball was intact, Jiu You could revive even if killed, after a few hours, enhancing defense power didn’t seem so urgent.

On the other hand, Mimicry allowed Jiu You to change its appearance and immediately join the battle.

"Let’s integrate Mimicry first."

After making up his mind, Ji Xinghuo said to Jiu You, "Open your mouth." Its head split open, and its body turned into a large pouch.

He first threw the "Torrential Form" into it.

The Torrential Form alien species was a low-viscosity liquid substance, which started to fuse with Jiu You’s body immediately upon entering.

Soon, its body suddenly spread out like water, spreading across the icy surface.

Then it undulated continuously, like waves.

The black liquid swept through the ice cave, crashing against the ice walls without freezing. Instead, it melted the ice, deepening the cave as the torrent rose higher and higher, making the sound of a tsunami.

The torrent gradually subsided and quickly shrank, coalescing back into Jiu You’s true form.

"It’s successful."

Ji Xinghuo saw the information update on its interface.

[Ability: Torrential Form (First Level 1/349)]

Immediately after, he threw the "Mimicry" alien species to Jiu You, which successfully integrated after a few minutes, adding another ability.

[Ability: Mimicry (First Level 1/167)]

Mimicry was a Superior Ability, requiring not much Spiritual Origin Ability to upgrade.

Ji Xinghuo had Jiu You demonstrate. It extended a wave-like tentacle and lightly touched Ji Xinghuo’s finger. Its body quickly changed, from black to white, its whirlpool-like lower half turned into two legs, the upper half filled out, skin formed, and the vague and bulky head gained distinct facial features, standing on the ground before him.

After a minute, a second Ji Xinghuo appeared in the ice cave.

The two were identical, and the other Ji Xinghuo even wore the same Superpower Armor, with identical weapons on his back.

Mimicry could not only imitate the target’s appearance but also the objects attached to it.

Ji Xinghuo was astounded.

It was like looking in a mirror, even knowing it was fake, but one couldn’t find any flaws with the naked eye.

Of course, this fake Ji Xinghuo was only skin deep.

Mimicry couldn’t replicate abilities.

If it could also simulate and produce abilities, then it wouldn’t be a Superior Ability.

During Mimicry, Jiu You could only use its own abilities, so the facade would be obvious once it engaged in combat.

But this was already very practical.

"Change again," Ji Xinghuo directed towards Qing Hong. The fake Ji Xinghuo stepped forward and touched it, its body immediately began to transform again, but the change was much slower this time, likely because its true form was significantly different from Qing Hong’s.

The target’s body size in Mimicry couldn’t be too different from its own.

Seeing that Jiu You was taking too long to transform successfully, Ji Xinghuo immediately poured in Spiritual Origin Ability and directly upgraded Mimicry to (Fifth Level 1/67777).

The Fifth Level Mimicry hadn’t evolved.

However, the transformation ability became richer, and as long as a target had been imitated once, it could be retained, allowing for transformation at any time in the future, and it would no longer be just an empty shell, but also have the target’s physical strength.

Meanwhile, the speed of transformation increased by dozens of times, and the range of body sizes it could imitate was greatly expanded.

It only took a second for Jiu You to complete the transformation, turning into Qing Hong.

Qing Hong was immediately startled, put its head down low, and let out a deep growl at Jiu You, filled with hostility.

Jiu You was not about to show weakness either, locking gaze with Qing Hong.

"Transform back."

Ji Xinghuo had a bit of a headache. He still needed to train these two to fight together in the future, but they didn’t seem to like each other. Especially Qing Hong, which clearly resented having to share its Spiritual Origin Ability with Jiu You.

Originally enjoying all the benefits alone, Qing Hong was obviously not happy now that someone else was encroaching on its territory.

It was with this in mind that Ji Xinghuo purposely strengthened Qing Hong, pouring into it tens of thousands of Spiritual Origin Ability points.

But it seemed to have only moderate effect.

Ji Xinghuo glanced at the interface, where he saw he had a little over ten thousand points of Spiritual Origin Ability left and decided to allocate them all to Jiu You, raising its Torrential Form to (Fourth Level 1/30599). There was no advancement, but the range of the torrents expanded several times, and the ability to manipulate water surged.

200,000 Spiritual Origin Ability points all used up.

In the next few hours, Ji Xinghuo had Jiu You practice its new Ability and participate in combined combat training with Qing Hong.

Although the two War Pets were resistant to each other, they surprisingly coordinated well in battle.

This delighted Ji Xinghuo immensely.

Seeing that time was about right, Ji Xinghuo finally had them stop training.

Qing Hong immediately used Shrinking to jump into his pocket, and Jiu You turned into a wisp of ghostly light entering the Supreme Dark Magic Ball - it seemed they didn’t want to spend a second longer with each other than necessary. If it weren’t for Ji Xinghuo’s strict command, they would have been fighting by now.

Ji Xinghuo was temporarily at a loss.

However, as long as it didn’t affect the combat, it was fine.

He flew out of the ice cave and returned to the Arctic Transfer Station, falling into Calula’s shop. He wasn’t even there yet when Electromagnetic Induction had already grasped the situation.

"My lord, please take a look!"

After greeting him, Calula projected a light screen that listed information about those five big boxes of Alien Species, including classification, quantity, price, and detailed remarks on some particularly unique Species. It was very thorough.

Ji Xinghuo took a cursory glance and immediately looked at the total price.

The total for over forty thousand Alien Species came to 7.5 million True Dragon Coins.

This was higher than Ji Xinghuo had anticipated, especially given that in the True Dragon Dynasty, Alien Species were never in short supply. Although the Species he had provided were of higher average Grade, it was difficult to fetch the price they would on Earth.

He had sold none of the most valuable Transcendent Species.

Calula, cautious, said, "My lord, if you are unsatisfied with the price, we can further discuss it."

"No need. Let’s leave it at that." Ji Xinghuo didn’t want to quibble over every little detail.

In fact, he wasn’t very interested in making money from the Species; he simply didn’t want to waste them. Moreover, if people found out that he had killed monsters and hadn’t even bothered to collect the Alien Species, it would easily arouse suspicion.

"Thank you, my lord!"

Calula was pleased to have completed the transaction and then mentioned, "Our shop offers a True Dragon Coin to Ether Crystal exchange service, but we charge a processing fee."

"Oh?" Ji Xinghuo’s interest was piqued, "How much is the charge?"

"Sixty thousand True Dragon Coins for one Ether Crystal." Calula answered in a low voice.

In the True Dragon Dynasty, the official exchange rate for one Ether Crystal was fifty thousand True Dragon Coins, but here it was sixty thousand, with a 20% service fee - a blatant rip-off.

Ji Xinghuo was about to refuse when a thought struck him.

He had killed Canghuo Gui and obtained over thirty million True Dragon Coins which he hadn’t yet spent.

This was a good opportunity to launder the money.

"I’ll add another 32.5 million, making a total of 40 million True Dragon Coins in exchange for 700 Ether Crystals." Ji Xinghuo made an offer, essentially exchanging one Ether Crystal for 57,000 True Dragon Coins, which was a slight discount.

Calula looked troubled.

Ji Xinghuo didn’t want to haggle, so he said bluntly, "You can either accept the exchange, or give me 7.5 million True Dragon Coins."

"Alright then." Calula agreed with a reluctant demeanor.

Ji Xinghuo knew he had still made a tidy profit. Pretending not to have the money on him, he returned to the hotel to retrieve the True Dragon Coins from the Dragon Ring, and then came back to exchange them for 700 Ether Crystals.

Just as he was about to leave, Calula called out to Ji Xinghuo.

"Is there anything else?"

Calula smiled and said, "My lord, I have a free piece of information for you. A few days ago, someone spotted a trace of an Earthquake Level Black Ring Earth Devouring Worm in the Silent Wilderness, said to have Star-falling Species. If my lord is interested, you might try your luck there."
