Su Yao felt complicated.

—Why would someone with this kind of bloodline be provoked by trainers!

Were they malicious, trying to scare the person to death?

On second thought, if you’re strong, you’ll be questioned for not being able to exert the power of your bloodline, and if you’re weak, you’ll be looked down upon. Maybe they just wanted to give her a warning?

Su Yao didn’t ask about the other party’s bloodline level anymore.

According to the information she found online, this bloodline had also spawned many different subspecies in gene engineering, ranging from C-level to F-level.

Just like her own lion bloodlines, there were A-level, B-level, and C-level ones, but mostly B-level.

Moreover, Kai might not have told the truth.

However—

Su Yao enlarged the pictures and videos at hand.

The little lizard had round, large black eyes, and bright orange-red eye rings that looked very energetic.  Its back had dark brown scales, its body was well-proportioned, its little paws were slender and agile, and it had a long, thin tail.

It would obediently lie on a person’s back of the hand, and it would also climb up a person’s arm. Those beautiful big eyes looked cute and innocent.

She suddenly understood why someone would keep this as a pet.

[Hold on, don’t block me yet]: So cute!!

[Still an illegal nickname]: ?

[Hold on, don’t block me yet]: Your real form! So cute!!!

[Hold on, don’t block me yet]: [Kitten scattering flowers.jpg]

She couldn’t help but send an emoji.

Kai suddenly fell silent.

He usually replied very quickly, only a few seconds each time.

This time, more than half a minute had passed without a sound.

Maybe something came up in real life?

Or maybe he’s shy?!

Su Yao was guessing wildly when her brain vibrated gently again.

[Still an illegal nickname]: …You too.

Seeing this reply, Su Yao subconsciously smiled and nodded.

Cats are cute too!

Who wouldn’t like cats!

No.

Su Yao suddenly froze.

Golden Chinchillas are indeed cute.

But she’s not a shorthair cat at all!

Her smile froze on her face.

…Forget it.

Let’s not say they’re just netizens, even if they really met, she wouldn’t tell him her bloodline.

Otherwise, what if she scares the little lizard to death.

[Hold on, don’t block me yet]: Have you awakened? Can you transform into your complete form?

The lower the bloodline level, the smaller the impact of the abnormal state, and the lower the risk of awakening.

In addition, the deeper the awakening progress, the greater the potential side effects, and the higher the requirements for the spirit body or the greater the amount of comfort needed.

This leads to very few fully awakened S-levels.

Being able to deeply awaken is already very powerful.

At lower levels, although the number of people who can fully awaken is not large, the proportion is still much higher compared to S-level.

[Still an illegal nickname]: Almost.

[Hold on, don’t block me yet]: !!!

You really can!

[Hold on, don’t block me yet]: By the way, how big is your awakened form? It must be more than twenty or thirty centimeters, right? I didn’t find it online.

[Still an illegal nickname]: I haven’t measured it, anyway, it’s bigger than a person.

Su Yao heard the sound of her dreams shattering.

The little lizard that could lie on her hand disappeared from her mind.

But considering that the first generation of awakeners, as products of gene engineering, were created for survival and combat.

Their beast forms are larger than the animals from which their bloodlines originate, which is logical.

For example, her lion scorpion, according to records, those ancestors who could fully awaken all had a size comparable to a small spaceship.

However—

[Hold on, don’t block me yet]: I heard that people who truly perfectly control their awakened form can control their size?

[Still an illegal nickname]: Yes.

Su Yao really wanted to ask if he could do it, but on second thought, whether he could do it or not had nothing to do with her.

Should she say, “Let’s meet, you can transform into a smaller size and let me hold you and play”?

Kai sent another message.

[Still an illegal nickname]: How are you?

Su Yao thought he was going to ask about her bloodline, so she quickly opened a search engine, entered the keywords “shorthair cat bloodline” and “awakening”, and started to look at their various information.

She had just written down a few data points when another message came.

[Still an illegal nickname]: Want to play a game?

Su Yao: “…”

She was thinking too much again.

This guy’s interest in her clearly only stopped at asking about her bloodline type.

He probably didn’t bother to know whether she had awakened or not.

[Hold on, don’t block me yet]: Not now.

Su Yao remembered that she had said she wasn’t in school and wasn’t working, so she simply told him the truth.

[Hold on, don’t block me yet]: I need to work on my spirit body.

After all, if the other party could really fully awaken, she might be able to ask him about related things, although there is limited overlap between different levels.

[Still an illegal nickname]: Mm.

Kai seemed to have returned to a state of complete lack of curiosity.

Su Yao closed the chat window and went to the training room upstairs, sat by the window, and tried to enter a state of meditation.

When she was hypnotized before, she vaguely sensed a certain power lurking deep in her mind.

She wasn’t sure if it was her spirit body, or something left behind by someone who had comforted her.

Moreover, she only felt it for that moment.

Later attempts to capture or touch it were all in vain.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling window was a lush green courtyard.

It was early morning now, and golden sunlight fell on everything from the flowerbeds to the trees.

The morning light soon poured into the room.

In the training room where the environmental control system was not turned on, the temperature was gradually rising.

Su Yao sat dryly by the window, using all kinds of methods to perceive her spirit body.

However, she had no gains until noon.

When she found that the local time was approaching lunchtime, she angrily slapped the air purifier next to her.

A sharp scraping sound rang out.

Su Yao: “?”

The alloy shell of the instrument slowly cracked, almost cut diagonally into two parts.

A second later, the upper half swayed and fell down, revealing complex and intricate circuit components at the cut surface.

Su Yao slowly raised her hand.

There was no fluff on her palm, and her bones were almost in their normal shape, but her fingernails had sharpened, becoming hook-shaped.

Like a big cat’s claws.

And there was no restlessness or increased appetite of awakening.

Su Yao blinked, thinking of retracting her claws, and her nails had already returned to their seemingly harmless rounded shape.

She had another thought, and the sharp claws reappeared.

Su Yao: “…Saturday, are there people whose talent is in awakening, but their spiritual power talent is poor?”

Saturday: “There is a large amount of professional and non-professional testing to prove that such people exist, Madam, the samples cover 85% of the species.”

Su Yao: “This has nothing to do with bloodline, right?”

Saturday: “From the experimental results, the main influencing factors are personality and cognitive bias.”

Su Yao could accept that she lacked talent in some areas, but she vaguely felt that it wasn’t like that.

When the male lead was releasing spiritual power at her before, she could withstand it, which means she wasn’t that bad in this area, right?

“…Madam, your uncle is requesting a voice call.”

“Answer it,” Su Yao said speechlessly, “Then tell me, wait, which uncle?”

The brain can perform multi-threaded work, and answering a hundred calls at the same time won’t delay other work.

Saturday gave a name, “He insists on talking to you.”

Su Yao sorted through the previous owner’s memories, finding some information about this uncle among the fragmented and chaotic information.

“Okay,” she sneered, “Let him come over.”

As soon as she finished speaking, a hoarse male voice sounded in her ear, “Yaoyao, how about what I said last time? Have you met Marquis Quix?”

“No,” Su Yao replied calmly, “…I sent an invitation, but she had something to do and didn’t come.”

“What?!” The other party sounded unhappy, “Then when can you see her? At the next Dawn Celebration in the capital star?”

Su Yao: “I don’t plan to waste time on these meaningless public events, so I won’t be going to the celebration.”

“You! How can you be so unconcerned! This is your brother’s lifelong event! Now that you’re rich, you’re going to leave us all behind? Do you still have a conscience? Your brother’s matches are all dubious people, he can’t marry those people, he and Marquis Quix are both lynx species, maybe that Marquis will be willing—”

“Stop,” Su Yao interrupted him, “Is that all? Is there nothing else? Then I’ll hang up, I’m busy.”

The other party was stunned, “What are you busy with? Is it the Crown Prince—”

“Oh, I’m busy enjoying life, after all, I’m rich, and I don’t have a conscience.”

Su Yao quickly ended the call, “Block all contact methods with him, Saturday, prohibit anyone from his family from entering any of my castles and estates.”

The brain did so without a word.

“Wait, prohibit anyone from entering directly, including the group of people yesterday…although some of them can force their way in.”

Su Yao stood up, “I’m going to play a game.”

She really needed an intense battle to vent.

The main house’s game cabin was still the limited anniversary edition, placed in the entertainment room opposite upstairs, and its appearance was more flashy and luxurious than the luxury model on the spaceship.

She sat in the cabin, completed the connection, chose another game, “Hell Star”, which had already been public tested.

The story takes place on a planet called Hell.

This place is polluted, various monsters appear, and various special and rare resources also emerge.

Major forces in the galaxy send elite soldiers to plunder valuable mineral elements, different factions fight for territory, and thus fight each other.

The game mainly focuses on PVP, player-versus-player combat.

And you can quickly enter combat, the requirements for weapon operation are relatively low.

The game allows you to freely create your appearance or use preset looks, and your body shape can only be slightly adjusted within a certain range.

She quickly scrolled through the disclaimer and risk notice and entered the tutorial.

Then she sent a message to Kai, saying that she was going to play another game and that he could come and team up with her if he was interested.

Half a minute later, she received a notification that her friend had logged into this game.

Su Yao completed the tutorial, sent a team invitation, chose the small team free-for-all mode, chose a normal match where winning or losing didn’t affect the rank, and officially started the game.

The next second, she was already in a smoke-filled street.

The sun was setting, the sky was a crimson red, and in front of her were collapsed overpasses and damaged buildings, with gunshots and explosions constantly ringing out in the distance.

The air was filled with a pungent and irritating smell.

“Are you in a bad mood?”

A low, magnetic male voice came from behind.

Su Yao turned her head and saw her teammate.

Kai had chosen another passerby face.

Perhaps because it was a product of the same company, this face was six or seven points similar to the previous one.

And “Hell Star” was a game that had already been public tested, and the appearance system was more mature, even newcomers had more than a dozen completely different outfit styles.

Su Yao: “…Why do you ask?”

Su Yao suddenly found that her teammate had a pretty good figure.

Kai was studying a broken shield shotgun in his hand.

He was only wearing a washed-black vest, revealing his strong and muscular arms, his deltoids full like mountain ridges, and his biceps bulging as his arms bent.

The man’s long and strong fingers fiddled with the charging valve, and the tendons on his broad and powerful back of his hand were prominent.

He was also wearing the beginner’s standard detachable belt, with grappling hooks, jammers, energy packs, and medical gel, among other small items.

Even with all these cumbersome things, you could still see the tight lines of his lean waist, and his long legs couldn’t be hidden by the camouflage pants and combat boots.

Su Yao visually estimated this guy’s leg length.

…Are these proportions even human?

This game only allows for slight adjustments to the body shape, even if this is the adjusted state, the original state wouldn’t be much different.

“Hmm?”

Kai raised his head, “The wording and sentence structure of your messages are different from your usual speaking habits when you’re calm. And you used a lot of exclamation points.”

He stood in the ruins, the shadows of steel bars and cables crisscrossing, swaying between the crevices of his muscles.

Su Yao blinked, “It’s not very good, a relative wanted me to be a pimp for him.”

Kai nodded knowingly, “Did he also say something about killing you if you don’t listen to them?”

Su Yao hesitated.

It wasn’t quite like that.

Most people probably wouldn’t want her to die, after all, if a family doesn’t have an S-level, its status will plummet.

Those few who hoped she would die and then divide up her property wouldn’t say it openly.

However, considering that Kai might be a small lizard, it’s not surprising to be threatened like this.

Before she could speak, Kai calmly said, “I suggest you kill a few, then there will be fewer such people.”

Su Yao: “?”

Was this guy telling a dark joke?

Su Yao thought about it and decided to tell one too, “Forget it, I killed a street of people yesterday, I can’t kill people every day.”

Kai glanced at her, “…Why not?”

Su Yao: “???”

Compared to the latter sentence, shouldn’t you question the former part first?
