C529 – The Threelegged Golden Cicada Is Mature
”Attention, students,” President Chen interjected at that mont. “Mr. Su is a man of discretion, so please don’t bother him. Let’s keep this news among ourselves and not share it with others.”
“Understood, understood!” the students chorused, nodding in agreent.
Without Senior Su, would they have ever landed such fantastic jobs?
They knew they had to keep this under wraps!
With that, the seminar concluded successfully.
Su Ming left with the two girls in tow, followed by a throng of people.
Once in the car, he waved goodbye to everyone before driving away.
The crowd, with tears in their eyes, waved back.
Farewell, Senior Su!
We won’t forget you!
By the ti everyone dispersed, it was quite late, and the girls were visibly tired.
Su Ming treated them to a al before escorting them back to school.
After a brief goodbye, he headed ho.
On this occasion, Su Ming didn’t bother parking in the garage. He slamd on the brakes and stopped right at the doorstep, rushed inside, and sprinted toward the breeding zone.
Don’t ask why.
Because the Three-legged Golden Cicada has ripened!
After such a long wait, it was finally ready!
Unable to contain his excitent, Su Ming flung open the door to the breeding house.
Instantly, a blaze of golden light greeted him!
Though the room was equipped with lights, Su Ming rarely turned them on. But now, as the door swung open, the room was awash with brilliance.
In each compartnt, there were two sun-like orbs radiating blinding light!
What on earth was this?
Su Ming dashed to the nearest compartnt and peered inside.
Holy smokes!
This, this, this…
Good heavens!
Unless my eyes deceive , this looks like…
A Little Sun?!
The three-legged golden cicada was gone, replaced by a miniature sun, complete with four little claws scuttling beneath it, shining with an intense glow.
Holy cow!
I’ve managed to grow a little sun from the soil!
Can you believe this?
Su Ming quickly stepped inside the compartnt.
Wait a second.
Sothing wasn’t adding up.
If this were a little sun, the room should be scorching hot, right?
How co he could stand so close without feeling any heat?
Could it be just an illusion? It resembled a tiny sun, but was it really not one? Su Ming was filled with doubt. He extended his hand and picked one up. In the mont of lifting it, the four small claws vanished instantly. The glow remained, soft and non-blinding. Su Ming examined it closely, turning it this way and that. It was indeed just like a little sun, identical in every way.
“Ding! Congratulations, Host, you’ve acquired a mini portal that’s even tinier than you! These portals co in pairs and can transport items. You can carry one with you, place the other in a fixed location, and by reaching into one portal, you can retrieve any item within a 20-ter radius of its counterpart!”
“Note: This item is for the Host’s use only!”
“Note: The Host must not disclose this item to others!”
“Note: Upon extending a hand into the portal, the Host will gain the vision from the other portal!”
“Note: This portal can only teleport small items and cannot transport living beings, the Host and microorganisms excepted!”
“Note: The Host must be visible when using the portal!”
“Note: To others, when not in use, the portal appears as an ordinary little sun!”
“Note: The portal can be enlarged or shrunk, but does not need to be enlarged for use!”
As Su Ming was examining it, a cascade of notifications suddenly sounded. He stood there, dumbfounded. Holy smokes! This was incredible! An actual portal? My goodness! This was the stuff of science fiction movies!
Hold on a second! System, I’ve got a question for you! What’s with this na? A mini portal that’s supposedly smaller than the Host? What’s that supposed to an? Where am I lacking in size? Step out, and let’s settle this with a fight!
Su Ming was no stranger to the System’s knack for infuriating nas. He could put up with a lot, but this was too much. To be called small was sothing he just couldn’t stand. But it was rely an internal grumble. In the end, this was still an incredibly cool gadget!
He paid close attention to the System’s series of notes, making sure to commit them to mory. Indeed, it was essential. After all, he had grown many things in his own field.
These were all things that didn’t exist in reality.
This item, while present in science fiction,
wasn’t as far-fetched.
Portals in novels could transport anything, even spaceships.
But this could only handle small items,
and couldn’t even transport living creatures.
Though he could teleport,
given the size of this mini sun,
one could only fit an arm through,
or perhaps a leg.
Getting his whole body through was out of the question.
Indeed,
his level simply wasn’t high enough.
For a Level Three item,
having a portal at all was incredibly fortunate.
Plus, this would be imnsely helpful to him.
In the future, while farming,
he could place one in the warehouse,
and another by the tap.
No more running back and forth for fertilizer and seeds.
Brilliant!
Su Ming burst into laughter,
delighted with this excellent item.
His hard work had paid off,
though he had waited quite a while!
Upon closer inspection,
Su Ming noticed two buttons.
One was a dial; placing his hand on it, he watched the mini sun shrink.
When he dialed it all the way,
it was rely the size of a charm.
Great, another trinket for his keychain!
The other button was a small, round one.
Pressing it,
he saw the light from the mini sun vanish.
Clearly, it was the power switch.
Excellent!
Su Ming eagerly grabbed another,
scampering to the warehouse and then back to the breeding zone.
Next,
he took the mini portal from the charm,
pressed the tiny button,
and the mini sun emitted a faint glow,
resembling a little LED.
It was inconspicuous during use,
and even if soone did notice,
it appeared to be nothing more than a glowing, ordinary charm.
Su Ming extended his hand,
and at the touch,
felt a warm sensation.
Pushing further,
his entire hand slowly vanished into the coin-sized device,
which seed to swallow it whole.
It was quite the sight to behold.
As his hand entered,
Su Ming suddenly felt as if he could see inside the warehouse,
and he reached out towards a distant bag of seeds.
Although the portal was over ten ters away, it seed to possess the ability to move on its own, arriving right in front of the seed.
Huh?
The portal, which was initially at the entrance, now appeared to be positioned before the seed. Could this an he could reach items that were even further away?
Su Ming attempted to stretch his hand toward the distance, only to realize he couldn’t.
The System lived up to its reputation; the existence of a bug was out of the question.
Su Ming seized the seed and retracted his hand.
Wow!
It actually worked!
Hold on!
Oh no!
He had been warned earlier not to teleport living things.
Upon closer inspection, Su Ming noticed sothing was off.
Shoot!
The seed had turned gray.
Thankfully, it was rely a common Level One seed.
Had it been a Level Three seed, he would have been devastated!
Those were incredibly costly, after all!
