"Healing Chime".......................b0006.
Before this, Lorant was still looking at these monster eggs, wondering which of these two little creatures from the same origin would take the lead and secure the B-06 number.
Now it seems the Healing Chime’s luck was better than the Dream Jellyfish’s.
The number six in the ability chart was finally determined as "Healing Chime," while number seven would soon belong to the Dream Jellyfish.
The two monsters from the same origin are closely placed together in the ability chart.
As Lorant walked on, he casually opened the ability chart in his mind.
The huge pages flipped open quickly in front of Lorant.
It stopped at the page belonging to the Healing Chime.
A clear, melodious sound immediately came from the pages, the first time Lorant had heard such a loud sound in his ability chart.
Most monsters, even ones like the Floating Giant Duck with somewhat unpleasant calls, have their sounds weakened in the ability chart.
Hearing a monster’s sound from the ability chart is like listening through glass, never as clear as when face to face.
But now, the sound seemed to possess a special magic, piercing directly into Lorant’s ears, instantly lifting his spirits.
The slight irritation from the monster’s delayed birth was also instantly healed.
This is why the Healing Chime, despite having no healing ability, is crowned with ‘healing’ in the ability chart.
The little golden bell flew happily in front of Lorant, bouncing up and down, as if expressing its excitement to Lorant.
Then it swayed vigorously left and right, making a louder sound before vanishing.
Lorant even felt his mind calm for a moment after the Healing Chime’s final movement, a moment when his mind seemed completely blank.
Even the continuous monster breeding simulation in his mind was interrupted by this calm.
To keep the monster breeding simulation running in his mind, Lorant had maintained intense focus for over two years.
In fact, Lorant always believed he was completely ordinary, a kind of self-deception.
If outsiders knew the kind of intense mental work the monster shop owner did daily, even a great mage like Jacqueline would be amazed.
Lorant is far from ordinary. He may not have the talent to become a practitioner, but purely in terms of mental strength, his talent is quite astonishing.
What he has been doing is far beyond the capabilities of all practitioners.
The operation of the brain itself represents a certain degree of mental strength usage.
And what Lorant does is not just using his brain; he is more like squeezing his spirit, forcing his brain to stay in a highly active state at all times.
Even with a certain degree of self-abuse, he forces himself to subconsciously maintain a high level of mental concentration.
And doing this year after year, he eventually, like a successful control freak and sadist, made his brain accustomed to the terrifying state of dual-line operation.
Moreover, he can even operate in dual lines perfectly, so perfectly that no one can see what kind of state Lorant's brain is in behind his normal life.
In such a state, Lorant's mind is actually running non-stop without a moment's rest.
Even when he drifted into sleep, it was mostly light sleep, and he rarely experienced true deep slumber.
Without a cherished creature like the Dream Weaver, he might one day die suddenly in the morning due to insufficient sleep or light rest...
At the instant the Healing Chime in the ability chart rang out its loudest.
At the instant his mind was forcibly halted.
Lorant couldn’t help but sigh in comfort.
To be honest, quieting his mind even for a moment was a rare enjoyment for him.
However, after the enjoyment, Lorant still plunged back into the breeding simulation in his mind.
Lately, he'd been fortunate, spotting another potential path in breeding.
Therefore, the store manager stood ready to welcome the arrival of the next new creature.
This craving naturally eclipsed his desire for rest.
Once the Healing Chime's image faded from the ability chart, Lorant focused all his attention on the chart’s content.
Naturally, the Healing Chime's skills intrigued him most.
"Skills":
1. "Chime's Song": The Healing Chime sways and dances gracefully, accompanied by a melodious song. All listeners find peace of mind.
2. "Mental Recovery": Every chime from the Healing Chime can ease mental fatigue and speed up mental power recovery for those who hear it, by 2 to 5 times.
3. "Golden Body": The Healing Chime has an incredibly tough exoskeleton. When needed, it can transform its entire outer shell into gold, boosting its defense and magic resistance. This ability rapidly drains the Healing Chime's energy.
Lorant nodded approvingly at the Healing Chime's description.
"Golden" is a unique magical metal in this world, lightweight yet with strong defensive capabilities, and extremely expensive. It is a material that all practitioners dream of.
Lorant was genuinely surprised this little creature could coat itself in such metal.
But whether this was a blessing or a curse, Lorant felt he needed to think carefully.
Like a child clutching a treasure, this defenseless creature with 'great treasure' would inevitably draw envy.
The skills clearly show the Healing Chime isn’t offensive; its role is quite clear, as a purely supportive creature, like the Lightwing Butterfly.
Now, the number of auxiliary creatures in Lorant's hands is not small.
They all have their own powerful abilities in different fields.
And the Healing Chime is not the first creature that can affect consumed mental power.
However, the previous one that could affect mental power was the Phantom Spider, which produced a powerful and terrifying offensive ability. The Healing Chime is indeed the first to have a positive effect on mental power.
This means that the Healing Chime will hold a status among mages or priests that is not much lower than the highly sought-after Dream Weaver.
As is well known, mages can use magic, on one hand, through the scheduling of mental power, and on the other, through the accumulation of magical power.
The Dream Weaver's ability to affect the magical power of these practitioners has already driven everyone mad with desire for it.
And once a creature that can affect mental power, which is equally important as magical power, appears, Lorant is confident that it will drive those practitioners even more insane.
At the same time, the ability of the Healing Chime to 'accelerate the recovery of consumed mental energy' is not only coveted by mage practitioners but also holds unparalleled importance for organizations that rely on these practitioners for their conquests.
Doubling a mage's mental energy recovery speed effectively doubles their utility. The existence of such a monster egg indirectly boosts overall combat strength.
It indirectly increases the number of mage practitioners, especially the already rare spellcasting practitioners. The significance of such a monster egg is self-evident!
Next, Lorant will test how much this monster egg can boost mental energy recovery speed and determine if this ability can be enhanced and controlled.
Of course, these tasks will be assigned to the mage team.
It is believed that those curious mages will take their work seriously when faced with a monster egg that can affect mental energy.
Before this, Lorant is also curious about another monster egg.
The adorable bell-shaped little ones, their golden monster eggs, began to emerge as cute little golden bells after the first Healing Chime was born.
The pleasant, cheerful sounds, like Christmas carols, blended into a grand symphony.
The floating octopuses quickly took over Lorant's work, picking up the newborns and placing them on their eggshells to calm them, so they would eat their eggshells.
Lorant, meanwhile, focused more on another yet-to-be-born monster egg.
He moved around the blue-glowing monster eggs, and after about half an hour, finally saw a blue monster egg crack.
Like the Healing Chime, the blue monster egg first showed a fine crack at the top, and a small piece of eggshell was pushed up.
From the small crack in the eggshell, a semi-transparent, sea-blue gelatinous mass floated out.
Under Lorant's astonished gaze, a giant jellyfish-like creature, much larger than the egg, slowly floated out from the now colorless eggshell.
It looked like a thick plastic bag or a soft, stretchable jelly.
As it floated up, freed from the constraints of the monster egg, this large and soft creature gradually unfolded its body in the air.
A jellyfish-like creature, large enough to fill the entire breeding room from top to bottom, soon appeared completely before Lorant's eyes.
Except for the top of its head, which was a flat, rounded mushroom cap shape, the lower part of its body was covered with countless shapeless, extremely ethereal tentacles.
These tentacles were uniquely shaped, being very long and quite illusory, seemingly existing on the boundary between having a physical form and being just light and shadow.
The creature flickered with a faint blue light from the center of its head.
