The compatibility given by the game system was 34%, which meant that the success rate was about a third. It was considered very low.
However, the Mutated Buddha Heart Lotus was just too excellent. Zhou Wen couldn't bear to feed it to Truth Listener, nor could he take it out in-game.
As for the Mutated Skeleton Ant, although it was a pretty good Mortal Companion Beast, it was ultimately at the Mortal stage. After obtaining the Silver-Winged Flying Ant, its effects would diminish. Even if he didn't fuse it now, it would gradually be eliminated in the future.
Therefore, after some thought, Zhou Wen decided to take the risk and fuse the two Companion Beasts.
After Zhou Wen chose to fuse the Mutated Buddha Heart Lotus and Mutated Skeleton Ant, the game system immediately gave him a notification: "As the Mutated Skeleton Ant is already mature, the Mutated Buddha Heart Lotus Companion Egg will be used as a supplement for the fusion. Continue the fusion?"
It was the same the last time. Zhou Wen was already mentally prepared, so he chose 'yes'.
The Mutated Buddha Heart Lotus Companion Egg and Mutated Skeleton Ant emitted a blinding glow as the Mutated Buddha Heart Lotus Companion Egg automatically flew towards the Mutated Skeleton Ant. The two blobs of light fused into one, causing the entire phone screen to emit a blinding light.
Zhou Wen waited for quite a while as the light on the phone screen gradually dimmed. Then, he heard a ding.
System notification: Companion Beast fusion successful. Obtained Legendary Companion Beast, Mutated Lotus Flower Ant.
Only then did Zhou Wen see a Companion Beast appear on the phone screen. It didn't look much different from the Mutated Skeleton Ant from before. It still had a white bony shell, but its body seemed to have grown larger. On its head was a budding blood-colored lotus flower.
He pulled up the Mutated Lotus Flower Ant's information and was immediately overjoyed when he saw it.
Mutated Lotus Flower Ant: Legendary
Life Providence: Turbid Waters Clear Lotus
Strength: 19
Speed: 17
Constitution: 18
Primordial Energy: 18
Talent Skill: Skeleton Spike (Rank 10), Blood-Patterned Buddha Aspect (Rank 9), Lotus Bullet (Rank 5), Venom Toad (Rank 8), Buddha Lotus Rage (Rank 9)
Companion Form: Bracer
The Lotus Flower Ant had clearly inherited the Mutated Buddha Heart Lotus Life Providence. The Turbid Waters Clear Lotus Life Providence wasn't bad. It could be considered a very practical Life Providence.
Among the four attributes, only Speed was off by 1 point. As for Strength, it broke through the limits of the Legendary level and reached 19 points. It could be considered the best of the best.
What was even more ridiculous was that Lotus Ant had retained all the skills of the Skeleton Ant and Mutated Buddha Heart Lotus, becoming a terrifying existence with five Primordial Energy Skills. Furthermore, their ranks were rather high.
If such a Legendary Companion Beast could be sold, just the five Primordial Energy Skills alone would probably fetch an astronomical price. If there was a comprehensive ranking of Legendary Companion Beasts, the Mutated Lotus Ant's ranking would definitely be very high.
Zhou Wen was delighted as he summoned the Mutated Lotus Ant. He saw a terrifying Bone Ant the size of a tank appear in front of him. Its body was covered in terrifying bone spikes, making it look extremely ferocious and terrifying.
However, there was a red lotus growing on its head. It was connected to the top of its head by a flower stem, making it look even more ugly and cute than it already was.
As the Mutated Lotus Ant crawled, the lotus flower on its head swayed. It was rather interesting.
As Zhou Wen was admiring the Mutated Lotus Ant, he suddenly heard the doorbell ring. Dispelling the Mutated Lotus Ant, he opened the door and was surprised to see Wang Fei standing outside.
Sunset College's education method was very simple. Every tutor led a class, and the tutors were only responsible for giving out topics and missions. Under normal circumstances, they wouldn't directly participate in teaching.
Students could selectively listen to a particular teacher's class based on their missions and learn the knowledge and skills they needed.
Therefore, although Wang Fei was Zhou Wen's tutor, he didn't have many chances to see her. Before the ten-day deadline of the previous mission ended, Wang Fei typically wouldn't gather her students again.
Unless a student encountered a problem and sought her help, the tutor typically wouldn't interfere with a student's normal studies.
"Zhou Wen, pack your things and come with me," Wang Fei said without waiting for Zhou Wen to speak.
"Tutor, what do you want me to do?" Zhou Wen asked, somewhat depressed.
Wang Fei said with a smile, "Professor Chen has a project that requires a student to be his assistant. I think you are quite suitable, so I recommended you to Professor Chen."
"Is this a homework mission?" Zhou Wen frowned slightly. He didn't wish to be an assistant.
Zhou Wen had long heard of the benefits of being an assistant to a professor. Not only could he come into contact with more high-level items and broaden his horizons, but he could also receive the professor's guidance. It was an opportunity that many students wished for.
However, Zhou Wen didn't like such an opportunity. Although there were many benefits to being an assistant to a professor, he had to sacrifice his time to work for the professor.
To other students, such a job was a form of training and improvement, but to Zhou Wen, it was a waste of time. It would only prevent him from gaming.
"It's not a homework mission. I just think you are suitable, so I recommended you. Professor Chen has extremely high achievements in nurturing Companion Beasts. He's an authority in our Sunset College. Furthermore, he has done a lot of research on Primordial Energy Skills. I believe it will be of great help to you if you learn from him. "Wang Fei felt a little smug.
Professor Chen was famous for being inflexible. If it wasn't for her, it would have been nearly impossible for anyone to convince him to take in another student as an assistant. In Sunset College, there weren't more than three people who could make Professor Chen give them face.
"Ms. Wang, if this isn't a homework mission, I hope I can reject it," Zhou Wen said directly, not noticing the smugness on Wang Fei's face.
The smile on Wang Fei's face instantly froze. She imagined that Zhou Wen hadn't figured out the situation, so she explained, "Professor Chen Qishan isn't just in Sunset College. Even in the entire Federation, he has a certain level of authority. By becoming his assistant, you will be able to come into contact with many high-level Companion Beasts and understand their characteristics and abilities. This will be of great help to your future exploration of dimensional zones. Besides, Professor Chen is …"
Without waiting for Wang Fei to finish, Zhou Wen said firmly, "Ms. Wang, thank you for your kind intentions, but I still hope I can reject it. The usual homework missions are already very arduous. I also need time to study and reflect. I don't have enough time, so if this isn't a homework mission, I hope I can reject it."
Wang Fei felt as if she had been hit by a stick. Her original excitement and smugness instantly vanished, and her mood became very bad.
"Are you sure you want to reject it?" Wang Fei stared at Zhou Wen and asked.
"Yes, Ms. Wang." Zhou Wen clearly wasn't good at reading people's expressions as he replied with a nod.
"Alright." Wang Fei turned around and left, but she was gnashing her teeth in hatred.
