Chapter 37: Evolution of a Weak Dog
After the birth of the Star Warriors and the rewriting of the era, there were three important milestones in the development of the Human Alliance.

The first is that in the 129th year of the Xingwu calendar, humans completed the interstellar immigration work on three life stars, laying the foundation for the current four-star alliance structure.

The second is that in the 368th year of the Xingwu calendar, the birth of the star gate made the exchange of resources and personnel between the four life stars extremely convenient.

And the last milestone occurred within a hundred years.

In the 934th year of the Xingwu calendar, the Starry Sky Virtual Network was born.

This technology, which builds on the Star Gate and goes a step further, allows humans on four life planets to be covered in the same virtual network, allowing them to easily communicate and have richer interactions with millisecond delays.

To enter the Starry Sky virtual network, a virtual network interface is required.

With the multiple iterations of technology, the virtual network interface is becoming increasingly miniaturized, from the original sleeping chamber to the current head-mounted type. You only need to put on a virtual interface helmet to easily log in to the Starry Sky Virtual Network.

Chu Mu and Xu Qiu had previously conducted a virtual battle using the Starry Sky Virtual Network, but the school’s training virtual interface was specially made.

Not only are its functions limited and can only be used for virtual battles, but it can only be logged in using a guest account applied for by the school.

If you want to have your own virtual network account, it is necessary to have your own personal virtual network interface.

However, virtual interface helmets have only been on the market for more than a decade, and are not yet available to every household.

Its price is not affordable.

Even the first generation of Unreal 1 helmets used by the school currently has an official selling price of more than Alliance coins. This type of device, which has a unique number and is directly bound to brain waves, cannot be resold once it has been used.

Unreal 4 is the 4th generation of virtual interface helmets. It has been less than a year since its release. Not only is it lighter and has lower latency than previous products, but it also has many new features of the starry sky virtual network. The official price is as high as Alliance coins.

This is also the reason why Chu Mu was extremely surprised when he heard Xu Qiu mention the bet.

Looking at Xu Qiu's departing back, Chu Mu quickly came to his senses and shook his head helplessly.

Proposing a bet with Xu Qiu was just an instinctive counterattack after he felt Xu Qiu's disdain for him. As for the bet, Chu Mu actually didn't have any expectations.

To him, a bet of this amount was more like an empty promise like "If you win, I'll wash your hair upside down." He would rather bet a thousand Alliance coins, which sounded more likely to be fulfilled.

To put it another way, even if Xu Qiu really gave it to him, he would not accept it.

"Work hard to save money, and I can buy it myself." Chu Mu silently encouraged himself.

After entering the Nayuan Realm, he can make money through part-time jobs, which not only allows him to better meet his daily needs, but also allows him to have a surplus.

After the class placement exam is over, I will have more time to work part-time during the summer vacation, and saving money to buy a virtual helmet will not be an unattainable dream.

"Personal virtual accounts can enter the exclusive battle platform 'Decisive Ladder' to fight and compete with star warriors from the Twin Moon Star and even the other three life stars." Chu Mu's eyes were full of anticipation, "In addition, there are many other functions that are helpful for improving martial arts."

“This is truly something that the sooner you buy it the better.”

Xingyuan.

Chu Mu's consciousness returned to the mantis's body once again. The dog who had been silently guarding the mantis while it was sleeping had already eaten the first-level star beast that was allocated to it.

At this moment, the rookie stared at the second-level star beast beside him, swallowing his saliva continuously, but did not move a single bite.

The awakened Chu Mu devoured quickly, and soon devoured the remaining second-level star beasts all at once, and then left with the vegetable dog.

Perhaps it was because the appearance of the wormhole yesterday attracted all the star beasts in the nearby area, and nothing was found after a search.

It's time to leave and head to a new area.

They randomly picked a direction, and the mantis and the dog cooperated with each other to move forward. Soon, the dog's long whiskers moved, and it let out a short roar, and quickened its pace.

Chu Mu followed quickly, and soon they appeared at the foot of a rocky mountain. The blood splattered on the rocks had turned brown, but Chu Mu was familiar with the torn clothes and weapon fragments on the ground.

They belong to the three three-eyed beings seen yesterday.

As Chu Mu expected, they did not escape unscathed.

After staying there for a moment, Chu Mu raised his head and looked higher up the hill.

According to Cai Gou's perception, there are quite a few star beasts in this area.

Search, kill, devour, and on and on.

By the time he felt sleepy, Chu Mu's evolution degree had increased to 10.5%, most of which was brought by the second-level star beast yesterday.

Turning his head to look at the dog who was still showing off his food, an incomprehensible look flashed in the mantis's compound eyes.

Chu Mu discovered something very interesting.

That is, this time he felt sleepy much later than before.

If he thought about it carefully, he had actually stayed in the Star Abyss yesterday for a longer time than before, but he did not notice this because he encountered the wormhole and alien civilization.

and so…

After his strength increases, will he be able to stay in the Star Abyss longer?

Thinking of this, Chu Mu couldn't help but feel excited.

The longer stay time not only means that he can hunt and devour more star beasts every day, which to a certain extent makes up for the slower speed of evolution after the third level, but also means that he can have more hidden training time.

Before, he could stay in Xingyuan for about 8-10 hours, and had more training opportunities, which is why his left hand skills caught up with his right hand so quickly.

Now that the skills of both hands are at the same level and there is more time to stay in the Star Abyss, the subsequent improvement speed of the skills of both hands will certainly not be slow.

"Ow?"

Cai Gou picked up one of the star beast's thighs and handed it to Chu Mu, asking inquiries in his roar.

"Hiss~" (You eat, I'll take a nap.)
Chu Mu shook his head, found a comfortable and shady place nearby, and fell asleep quickly.

Seeing this, the dog excitedly stuffed the thigh into his mouth, and with his terrifying bite force, he crushed both the bone and the flesh into pieces.

"Crack!"
-
"Pfft!"

Chu Mu leaped down from a high altitude at a high speed and attacked a nearly twenty-meter-long snake star beast below. He slammed his two swords into a certain part of the snake's body at parallel angles. The hard snake scales were as fragile as paper under the crushing force. In just a moment, the heart under the snake scales was torn into pieces by the two swords.

The long snake star beast let out an unwilling wail, twisted wildly on the ground for a while, and gradually lost its voice.

After shaking off the blood on his two swords, Chu Mu put away his long swords and looked at the extremely excited rookie standing beside him.

For four consecutive nights, the evolution of the rookie dog was only one step away from advancement.

At the moment, this third-level star beast is the only one in the vicinity. Novice Dog had discovered it yesterday, but Chu Mu only attacked it today when Novice Dog was about to advance.

In this way, the large amount of nutrition required for advancement can be met.

"Hiss!" (Let's start evolving!)
Chu Mu urged, with anticipation in his eyes.

Will wormholes appear again?
