"Uh…"
Before Sean could answer whether he wanted to or not, Mabuz eagerly began to speak.
"You should know, Melinoe is my granddaughter. When we just communicated, that girl urgently woke me from my sleep, asking me to definitely help you."
At this point, Mabuz raised an eyebrow at Sean, his eyes full of meaning, then continued, "I haven't seen Little You show such great interest in someone in a long time."
"Young man, although you are a respected Lord, I am a Purple-Radiance-level Biocreationist after all. Even some Blue-Sapphire and Purple-Radiance-level Lords have to make appointments in advance if they want my help, so, you understand…"
Hearing this, Sean couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
The old man's meaning was already very clear; even if he was foolish, he could understand the implication.
Could it be that that woman was a bit too much, making her grandfather have such thoughts?!
No, he had to clarify!
Interested in Melinoe?
Absolutely impossible! Simply terrifying!
Aside from her being his senior and creditor, she was practically indistinguishable from a female ghost!
Who would be interested in Sadako?! (T/N: The horny one...)
"Um… Master Mabuz, Melinoe is merely my senior, and I owe her quite a few soul crystals. Perhaps it's because of this that she's a bit… strange in her speech… Yes, that's it!"
Sean said earnestly.
To be honest, Melinoe's "fanatical" attitude towards him also gave him a headache.
"Don't worry, I've been there, I understand, I understand!"
Master Mabuz, upon hearing this, merely smiled slightly.
Sean was immediately speechless. His old face was smiling like a chrysanthemum; that expression clearly showed he believed it.
However, Master Mabuz was a Purple-Radiance-level Biocreationist after all, so Sean couldn't say much.
Anything more would sound like an excuse.
It was better to discuss the difficulties he encountered.
It seemed Master Mabuz would be very willing to help him.
"By the way, Master, about the matter I requested of you, do you know about it?"
"No problem! I understand. You want to mass-replicate this unique plant you have, right?"
"Exactly, do you have a way?"
"Tch, a piece of cake. I am the Purple-Radiance-level Biocreationist closest to being the strongest; the technique for mass-replicating creatures is simply second nature to me."
Master Mabuz patted his chest, saying proudly.
Hearing this, Sean finally felt relieved, a joyful expression appearing on his face.
He then pressed on, "So, will it take a few days? Or…"
"No need, come with me, I can get it done right now. Ah~ Let's get it done quickly, I still want to go back to sleep."
Master Mabuz waved his hand, stretched, and let out a big yawn.
Then, he shimmered before Sean's eyes, and the surrounding mist instantly enveloped his entire body. Watching Mabuz wave a hand, the two disappeared from their original spot.
"Awo! Awo~"
Just after the two left, a series of roars echoed through the hall, and a strange creature burst into the hall.
It was a tiger, or rather, a tiger-like creature. Compared to the mainstream fierce, fanged, and terrifying appearance, this mighty tiger creature could only be described as cute and agile.
With soft golden fur, a body half the size of a normal tiger, its adorable big eyes rolled around, watching the mist where Sean and Mabuz had disappeared.
"Awo~"
The mighty tiger roared, but it had no imposing presence whatsoever.
It could be praised as a "cute tiger."
"Little… Jin… slow… down… I… can't… keep… up…"
Behind this creature, the Little Girl who had just led Sean in was chasing with light steps.
When the Little Girl caught up to the little tiger, it could be seen that a small bird was perched on the Little Girl's head!
The small bird was very tiny and cute. Its golden feathers sparkled, like a magnificent crown, elegantly resting on the girl's head.
"Where… is… Teacher…?"
The Little Girl asked breathlessly.
She seemed to be speaking to Little Jin beside her.
"Awo!"
The little tiger, hearing this, let out another roar, then spun around in place, and then pointed a paw towards the misty direction of the hall.
"Oh, they left."
Seeing this, the Little Girl understood that her teacher and the man had left.
"What a shame, Teacher finally woke up, and I wanted to show him the new creature I created."
"Gugah~ Gugah~"
As if echoing the girl, the golden bird on her head chirped.
The Little Girl, hearing this, her lips curved slightly, and a faint smile appeared on her face.
This little bird was her newest creation, very cute, and she liked it very much.
"Awo!"
Just then, the golden-furred little tiger beside the Little Girl suddenly roared.
Then it transformed into a golden streak of light, rushing out of the hall and disappearing.
"Hmm?"
Seeing this, the Little Girl was momentarily stunned.
She quickly reacted.
"Oh no! Little Jin ran away! Hey, come back!"
The Little Girl quickly chased towards the hall's main door.
"Gugah~ Gugah~"
The small bird on the Little Girl's head also started chirping, then spread its wings and flew outside… At this moment, in a space filled with dark mist.
Mabuz and Sean seemed to be standing on these mists, suspended in mid-air, with a bottomless void beneath them.
"Master Mabuz, where is this?" Sean asked with a blank expression.
"Haha, this is the Dream World?"
"Dream World?" Sean was even more confused. He turned to look at Mabuz beside him, surprised to find that Mabuz had transformed into the same color and state as the mist, only darker in color, with his clothes as the only distinguishing feature.
Without these things, he probably wouldn"t even be able to see Mabuz.
Suddenly, he reacted, asking in surprise, "Could it be, this is your dream?"
Mabuz smiled and nodded.
"That's right, this is my dream, my Dream World. I usually create some magical creatures here. Everything in the dream can change according to my thoughts. This is also my unique skill as a Biological Manufacturer."
Sean nodded thoughtfully and asked, "What should I do now?"
"It's simple, throw the Sunflower in your hand into this void, " Mabuz said, pointing at something indistinct below.
"I have to do that?"
Sean looked at the Sunflower in his hand with some hesitation. Because of the darkness here, the Sunflower was emitting a dazzling light.
He could even feel waves of warmth.
As if seeing Sean's hesitation, Mabuz comforted him, "It's alright, don't worry, it won't be harmed. It's just that using it as a sample, I can imagine a large field of identical Sunflowers and then convert them into physical entities. Trust my strength as a Purple-Radiance-level Biocreationist"
"Besides, if I harm your creature, you can complain to Melinoe then."
Hearing this, Sean nodded, no longer hesitating, and tossed the Sunflower in his hand into the void.
Whoosh
A gust of wind blew, and the Sunflower was carried away.
Immediately after, in this dark mist, countless Sunflowers appeared, densely packed.
At this moment, Sean looked at these Sunflowers, as if seeing a flower field under the sunlight. The light from these Sunflowers connected into a continuous expanse, emitting a radiance like a dazzling miniature sun.
"How about it? It's magnificent, isn't it?" Mabuz said proudly.
"It's beautiful, and very impressive" Sean nodded and smiled.
"Alright, now I'm going to the next step. Next, I need you to exert some effort" Mabuz said somewhat seriously.
Sean felt a little confused and asked, "Me, exert effort? For what?"
