Chapter 616: Dreams and Reality

Qiao Sang immediately looked at Little Treasure Hunter with an appreciative gaze.

A genius!

How long has it been since it started learning? Not only does it recognize characters, but it can even connect words and understand their meaning!

I wonder if there's a way for pet beasts to advance their schooling; I feel like Little Treasure Hunter could totally handle some deeper-level content...

"Xun xun..."

Little Treasure Hunter shivered for no apparent reason.

Qiao Sang's thoughts returned to the present, her heart settling.

Little Treasure Hunter's mind is so sharp, and it just practiced hypnosis; although I don't know if it succeeded, seeing as those two Production Stones didn't seem to have any issues, hypnotizing other pet beasts later shouldn't be a problem either.

Even if the mission fails, at worst, I'll pay out of my own pocket to have the mission poster perform a Dream Projection. I have an unlimited credit card, plus Lu Bao's Healing Light; I don't believe she won't be tempted.

Thinking of this, Qiao Sang wanted to stuff the two Production Stones back into her pocket, preparing to head to the RV immediately.

"It's... it's that dream," Sylvia suddenly said.

The Swift Butterfly called out again.

You never thought the mission poster's goal was actually just that.

That guy said, it wants to evolve whenever it wants to evolve, it won't be tempted by profit; at worst, it just won't do it.

Because of the gossip earlier, Qiao Sang subconsciously paid attention, and sure enough, she saw many Swift Butterflies on the road; she specifically noticed that none of these Swift Butterflies were wearing identity bracelets.

In the image, there was a group of Swift Butterflies waiting in line, and at the very front, a white man was handing out something resembling a boxed lunch.

When it grew to about 50 centimeters in diameter, the water bubble stopped expanding and just floated there in mid-air.

"Now?" Qiao Sang asked.

That was close, I almost forgot the Production Stones had just been licked...

"Follow me, and I can guarantee you'll eat enough emotions to evolve."

I never thought there would actually be a Ghost-type pet beast inside the RV...

The tentacle-haired pet beast nodded, placed one of its tentacles on the Swift Butterfly, and then closed its eyes.

"Your next stage can only be reached by eating enough emotions, but the film base has an agreement with you Swift Butterflies: you cannot eat the emotions of anyone here. Once a wild Swift Butterfly evolves, it can no longer cooperate with the film base."

"Don't think about it; the Swift Butterflies here aren't assigned to every actor. You were only given a Swift Butterfly because you have scenes for a while; once your scenes are finished, the Swift Butterfly will go to someone else."

"It's that one." Sylvia gestured with her eyes, getting straight to the point.

The two Production Stones were confused.

From the first-person perspective, you couldn't see the Swift Butterfly's expression, but as the woman finished speaking, the Swift Butterfly let out an excited "Xun xun!"

This is doubting whether the Swift Butterfly left me of its own volition... Qiao Sang's expression suddenly became somewhat complicated.

"You also don't need to worry about being unemployed after evolving. My brain domain broke through a while ago, reaching 10%, so I can contract another pet beast."

It seems the Swift Butterflies here are all wild pet beasts; they probably come out to work just like the Production Stones. The scale powder on their bodies can amplify emotions, which is indeed what actors need... Qiao Sang made a guess internally.

A white star array lit up.

"No need, it's nothing important." Sylvia revealed a friendly smile for the first time.

In the image, it was no longer the scene of handing out boxed lunches; a woman with wine-red long hair was talking on and on from the first-person perspective:

It was just that at the time, the Cat was unaware it was in a dream.

Qiao Sang thought for a moment and nodded: "Dream creation is fine."

Many people have specific notes regarding their own privacy when posting missions. Besides not wanting the person taking the mission to disclose the content, some won't even tell the person taking the mission any information about the task; they just need them to do as they are told.

Little Treasure Hunter heard the conversation and thought it was fun, so it translated it simultaneously.

Then it not only didn't evolve, it probably compromised...

What gossip is there that I can't hear... Qiao Sang, who was already planning to leave, complained internally, her expression unchanged.

"Xun xun..."

Before the Swift Butterfly could react, it saw a pair of purple eyes, and then its eyes slowly closed, and it fell into a deep sleep.

When I taught the Cat to learn Teleport, Little Treasure Hunter created a dream through hypnosis to let it learn.

"Qiao Sang~"

Qiao Sang looked at Little Treasure Hunter, just about to ask it to create a dream.

The mission poster can offer the Dream Projection skill as a reward, which means she has a pet beast that can perform Dream Projection.

"Alright." Qiao Sang looked at the mission poster and asked: "Do you need me to step out?"

She stepped out of the bathroom and headed toward the mission poster's RV.

Two seconds later, a transparent water bubble containing an image slowly emerged from the Swift Butterfly's head.

Otherwise, if the content projected from the dream involves privacy later, communication might not go very smoothly.

"There are so many of your companions here; I believe you won't want to go anywhere else."

While speaking, she still couldn't help but look at those two pet beasts she didn't recognize at all.

They always say the relationship between people and pet beasts on Super Star is bad; now that I think about it, I might have some stereotypes. The population of Super Star is so large, it's impossible for everyone's thoughts to be the same.

"That day in the dressing room, the Swift Butterfly that came in clearly wasn't it. Later, I specifically asked and found out it went to another actor in our crew. I thought it was arranged by the crew to be swapped, but when I found it and used the Dream Hunting Beast to translate, I realized it was the one that didn't want to follow me anymore."

"Look at its dream." Sylvia pointed at the sleeping Swift Butterfly and said.

The angle of the dream was first-person, so you couldn't see the expression or state of the pet beast in question, but through the appearance of other Swift Butterflies, you could feel that this group of Swift Butterflies should all be happy at this moment.

It is well known that pet beast micro-shrinking bracelets require a pet beast with a body size exceeding 6 meters to be eligible for pre-order.

"This Swift Butterfly used to be my assistant. We worked together quite well, but unfortunately, one day it suddenly jumped ship and told me it wouldn't do it anymore. Although its salary was paid by the crew, I never treated it poorly; whatever the Dream Hunting Beast ate, I gave it the same."

The next second, Qiao Sang maintained the posture of holding the Production Stones, walked to the bathroom, came to the sink, washed both Production Stones clean, and only then stuffed them into her pocket.

Although the mission poster in front of her didn't specifically note it in the mission agreement, her profession was clearly an actor, and she hadn't told me any information related to the mission earlier. To prevent the subconscious from being affected later, and to facilitate Plan B to communicate with her on how to exchange for a chance to perform Dream Projection, Qiao Sang asked a thoughtful question.

"But fat is fat; no matter how many energy meals you eat, you can't evolve."

"I want you to let it create the dream I was asking it about at the time, to hear if its subconscious answer is consistent with what I asked it last time."

Uh, so, the Swift Butterfly just evolved in its dream... what a cowardly choice... Qiao Sang looked at the Swift Butterfly that was still in a deep sleep.

As she spoke, she formed seals with both hands.

This was a language Qiao Sang had never been exposed to.

"As long as you follow me and help me act, after you evolve, I will contract with you."

Just then, two white women with exquisite makeup came out of the outer stalls while chatting.

"But I heard a few days ago that the second female lead in the crew successfully swapped for a Swift Butterfly."

Little Treasure Hunter immediately appeared in the direction Qiao Sang pointed, its eyes glowing with purple light, looking at the Swift Butterfly with a constrained expression.

"I specifically checked; your emotional characteristics are of a higher grade than other Swift Butterflies. Follow me, and whatever Sylvia gave you, I can give you something even better."

When she said this, Sylvia suddenly realized her topic had drifted.

"I'm planning to apply to swap for a Swift Butterfly; it's just too stupid. Besides the scale powder on its body that can amplify our emotions while acting, it's practically useless."

"Ah..." Sylvia came back to her senses: "What did you say?"

The next second, its head uncontrollably turned toward Little Treasure Hunter.

"That's because..."

"Qiao Sang~"

"Chan chan?"

If a Psychic-type pet beast has a body size exceeding 6 meters, there is a high possibility that its level is above General-rank...

Psychic-type pet beasts and Fairy-type pet beasts are generally smaller than pet beasts of other attributes at the same level.

The two white women chatting saw Qiao Sang and instantly switched languages.

I saw that there was already an extra Swift Butterfly in the RV, looking at the mission poster with a constrained expression.

A pet beast with a white upper body and pink-blue tentacle-like hair, with an lower body like an octopus tentacle, appeared inside.

"I'll state the specific scene, can you let your pet beast create a related dream, or I'll state the time the event happened, can you let your pet beast hypnotize the memory to that time period?"

For pet beasts of other attributes to have a body size exceeding 6 meters, at the very least, they must reach General-rank.

"People outside, you wouldn't dare to eat their emotions. Like you wild pet beasts who have become accustomed to working with us humans, once you are discovered acting against humans, you will be driven out of the top ten districts by law enforcement."

Amidst the flurry of thoughts, Sylvia heard the young girl's words: "Do I need to get off the car and avoid it?"

Earlier, I clearly saw this pet beast perform Telekinesis; it is definitely a Psychic-type pet beast, no mistake.

"Xun xun!"

If this is the scene the mission poster wants to see, plus what she said earlier.

"Wait!" At this moment, Sylvia looked at the scene in the water bubble, her tone suddenly sinking.

The Swift Butterfly was still looking at the mission poster, completely ignoring this side.

She paused and continued:

Unfortunately, reality is cruel...

And this underage child is actually holding a Psychic-type pet beast...

But just at the moment of moving her hand, Qiao Sang seemed to think of something and looked down at the two Production Stones.

Qiao Sang nodded toward the air to the side.

Very soon, she returned to the mission poster's RV.

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse; I know you've been with me in this Teo Film Base for a total of two years, worked on five crews, and I've fed you indeed a bit fatter than other Swift Butterflies."

Since we are creating a dream, we have to tell the story of what happened. Sylvia said in a calm tone:

Could it be that she dreamed of what she wanted to see? Qiao Sang was curious internally and turned to look at the water bubble.

As it rose, the water bubble grew larger and larger.

Although there are two Swift Butterflies on the car, their expressions and demeanor are completely different, so they are quite easy to distinguish.

Qiao Sang has good eyesight and can clearly see the scene on the water bubble.

Sylvia nodded: "Now."

Then the screen went black, and when the white light dissipated, from the first-person perspective, the visual effect of what the woman was looking at clearly became smaller. ===== CHAPTER 666 =====
