Chapter 43: Chapter 43 Energy Essence, Attribute Food

In the Prayer Room, Char’s mind stirred, and ten streams of Praying Power began to converge, quickly coalescing into a dazzling Prayer Fragment.

Then the remaining Praying Power burst forth with splendid radiance, and after the light faded, several items had appeared on the altar.

Most of them resembled transparent crystal pastes, and there was also a pile of fiery-red eggs about the size of sesame seeds, along with a few pieces of emerald leaves shaped like sparrows.

[Energy Essence (Substandard)]

[Introduction]: A food that accelerates the growth of Magic Pets. Direct consumption can also speed up the growth of Magic Pets, and if combined with attribute food of different attributes, the effect will be even better when fed to a Magic Pet of the corresponding attribute.

[Fire Ant Egg]

[Introduction]: Fire Attribute Food. The eggs of fire ants. Consuming it will slightly assist fire attribute Demon Beasts.

[Green Sparrow Grass Leaves]

[Introduction]: Grass attribute plant. Emerald leaves that resemble sparrows. Consuming them will slightly assist grass attribute Demon Beasts.

Different texts appeared above the items brought forth by Prayer, and Char could not help but show a hint of joy on his face.

Energy Essence (Substandard) is nothing to fuss about; it’s the basic loot. If no higher-value materials are wished for, this will appear.

In the game, it was akin to Experience. Magic Pets that consumed it would gain Experience, serving the purpose of leveling up quickly.

Of course, the amount of Experience provided by the substandard Energy Essence was limited.

However, as the system said, if Energy Essence could be combined with different attribute ingredients to make different “balls” and then fed to Magic Pets of the corresponding attributes, the amount of Experience gained would greatly increase.

Of course, the concept of Experience no longer existed now.

But even without Experience, Energy Essence could still promote the growth of Magic Pets, it just couldn’t provide immediate results like in the game—where if you had saved up enough Energy Essence, you could increase a Magic Pet’s level to its current form’s limit in the blink of an eye.

However, this was reality, and the growth of Magic Pets still had to follow objective laws, something Char had already experimented with before.

He had spent a Prayer Power to get a portion of Energy Essence and fed it to a Star Worm, which was the lowest level—lower levels should make the effects more evident.

Unfortunately, the Star Worm showed no reaction at the time.

Clearly, Energy Essence needed time to take effect.

This shattered Char’s dream of relying on Energy Essence for quickly enhancing the strength of his Magic Pets since at the time, he urgently needed Praying Power and obviously could not waste the precious power on this.

Now, however, it was different; he had ample Praying Power to do other things.

Since he wasn’t in a hurry to continue upgrading the “Castle,” it wouldn’t help to rush.

Having obtained several Energy Essence (Substandard), Char was not surprised.

What was there to be surprised about this guaranteed loot?

What really surprised Char was the appearance of two attribute ingredients.

Most of the time, a ten-pull prayer would only yield one attribute ingredient, and it was possible to get none.

To have two attribute ingredients drop from twelve prayers was already above the average drop rate.

What delighted him even more was that the two attribute ingredients dropped were exactly the ones he needed.

The Fire Ant Eggs could be fed to the Lantern Firefly, and the Green Sparrow Grass Leaves could be fed to the Clover Mantis and Lotus Leaf Frog.

Except for the Star Worm, which was not applicable, the other Magic Pets could use them.

Char immediately stored away ten portions of the Energy Essence, then took one of the remaining portions and tossed it into a stone bowl, started pounding it with a stone pestle, and after crushing it, he threw in the Fire Ant Egg.

The stone pestle crushed the Fire Ant Egg, splattering red Bursting Liquid.

After some pounding, the Fire Ant Egg fused with the Energy Essence, turning into a pale red ointment.

The Lantern Firefly, who was consulting with the Clover Mantis, suddenly flew in.

Seeing the unexpected arrival of the Lantern Firefly, Char was somewhat surprised.

The Lantern Firefly was always silent and unobtrusive. It was rare to see such an eager demeanor.

Following the surprise, a smile could not help but appear on his face.

The unexpected behavior of the Lantern Firefly surely indicated that the food he was making was very attractive to it, right?

He sped up the process, and soon seven or eight pale red, round balls were rolled out.

After giving one to the Lantern Firefly, it began to gnaw at it with one hand.

It could only use one hand, as its other hand was directly connected to the lantern, without any fingers.

The Lantern Firefly always ate gracefully, but this time, it was unusually hasty, albeit just slightly, which was enough to show the allure the Energy Essence Balls had for it.

Char followed the same method and quickly pinched out some pale green balls.

“Mr. Char, what is this? It smells so good.”

Betty fluttered around the pale green balls, her nostrils quivering as she flitted up and down.

It seemed the Grass attribute Energy Essence was also very appealing to her.

But thinking about it, the Flower Fairy was essentially a flower incarnate. When it came to the purity of Grass attribute, even the Clover Mantis and Lotus Leaf Frog couldn’t compare. The fact that Grass attribute Energy Essence was attractive to her was completely normal.

The Lotus Leaf Frog squatted at Char’s feet, constantly making croaking sounds, showing eagerness too.

The Clover Mantis also walked in, its blade-like hands crossed in front of it like a lady.

And indeed, it was a lady.

Among Char’s four Magic Pets, the Star Worm, Lantern Firefly, and Lotus Leaf Frog were male, while, oddly enough, the strongest Clover Mantis was female.

“This is Energy Essence, do you want some?”

Char wasn’t stingy with the Energy Essence in his hands; for him, Betty was also a partner.

Betty nodded quickly, and Char gave her the smallest Energy Essence ball. Despite being the smallest, it was still large for Betty, even larger than her head.

Betty didn’t mind. She held the Energy Essence with one hand while digging into it with the other to feed herself.

“Ah! Delicious!”

The Lotus Leaf Frog’s croaking became more urgent, and Char also gave it a slightly smaller Energy Essence ball, then gave a large one to the Clover Mantis.

It wasn’t that he was showing favoritism; the difference in treatment was because the Clover Mantis’s Level was much higher than the Lotus Leaf Frog’s. It could digest such a large ball of Energy Essence, while the Lotus Leaf Frog could not.

Giving the Lotus Leaf Frog the same size Energy Essence would easily lead to waste.

The Star Worm watched its companions eat their fill without any negative emotions. It didn’t even seem puzzled about why everyone had something to eat except for itself.

But how could Char forget about it? He couldn’t possibly let it watch everyone else enjoy the food—that would be too pitiful.

So, even though consuming the pure Energy Essence directly was wasteful, Char still pinched a transparent Energy Essence ball for the Star Worm.

Since the Star Worm had no hands, he specially placed the Energy Essence ball on the table outside.
