As the Sage's Talent lit up, the bear monkey's body showed no change, its fur and physique remaining the same.
However, Yang Lin could feel that its gaze was different.
It seemed to ponder the purpose and origin of everything it saw.
If one had to describe the bear monkey now, perhaps "evolved" would be the only word.
While other animals awakened specific abilities, this bear monkey's awakening was at the level of consciousness.
Fortunately, it had no ambitions or aggression, otherwise, Yang Lin suspected it might lead all the monkeys in the world to rebel against humans.
As Yang Lin observed the bear monkey whose consciousness had awakened, the bear monkey also looked at him.
"Can you hand me those books behind you to read?"
Startled by the bear monkey's words, Yang Lin was momentarily stunned. Following the bear monkey's gaze, he realized it was referring to the books on the shelf behind him, which had somehow been placed there.
Upon closer inspection, he saw that these were books he had used for his postgraduate entrance exams.
After some thought, Yang Lin eventually handed all the books to the bear monkey.
He had initially assumed the bear monkey wouldn't be able to read as it didn't know the characters. However, he later discovered that this bear monkey was learning as it read.
Seeing its earnestness, Yang Lin had to admit that if he had half its dedication back then, he wouldn't have failed his postgraduate entrance exams.
"Another peculiar animal. I hope the tourists won't be scared when they see it."
Shaking his head, Yang Lin's gaze fell upon the Great Immortal whose front paws were both in casts.
Indeed, as a Huang Xian, one of the Five Immortals, the weasel, though small, was not lacking in intelligence.
Upon seeing Yang Lin looking at it, its face immediately showed a fawning expression.
If its front paws weren't in casts, it would likely be bowing by now.
"Alright, alright, don't rush, don't rush. It's your turn now."
"Let me see what abilities you have."
As he spoke, Yang Lin activated the Insight Light, and the weasel's talent panel appeared before him.
[Cleverness (Green Talent) requires 1 Talent Point to activate]
[Agility (Green Talent) requires 1 Talent Point to activate]
[Stench (Green Talent) requires 1 Talent Point to activate]
[Hallucination (Gold Talent) requires 5 Talent Points to activate]
[Spirit (Legendary Talent) requires 10 Talent Points to activate]
Shocked, unprecedentedly shocked.
Yang Lin had expected this weasel's talents to be as useless as the previous two little ones.
He never imagined that it would not only possess a gold talent but also a legendary talent.
This was the first time he had discovered a legendary talent in such a small animal.
Based on his past experience, the more complete the evolution and the longer the existence of a creature, the higher the probability of a legendary talent appearing.
However, the appearance of a legendary talent in this little creature was quite beyond his expectations.
Moreover, compared to the legendary talents of other animals, this weasel's legendary talent seemed even more unique.
"Spirit? What kind of talent is this? Is it telepathy, enhanced spirituality, or some other function?"
Yang Lin's mind was filled with questions, and he paid a little more attention to this small creature.
After a moment's thought, he immediately clicked on the weasel's Stench talent.
Normally, weasels could release foul-smelling gas to attack and defend, and many small animals couldn't withstand it.
Yang Lin could foresee that after awakening its talent, the stench it released would reach a new level.
Perhaps even large animals would be unable to resist it. He could collect some of this stench to make stink bombs for self-defense at critical moments.
As the talent awakened, the weasel's small body immediately grew by about a third.
Its originally yellow fur began to turn golden yellow, making it look much cuter than before.
As for its two fractured front limbs, they were now completely healed.
After Yang Lin carefully removed the casts and splints, it immediately bowed to Yang Lin.
"Good! For your attitude, I'll bring you a chicken tomorrow morning."
"You want two? That won't do."
...
After settling the four fully recovered little creatures, Yang Lin did not linger.
He soon moved to other areas of the park. First, he awakened Super Constitution in Shuai Shuai in the tiger enclosure to enhance its resilience, and then he awakened Steel Bones in the little white tiger Da Mi.
And so it went. Several hours passed quickly.
During these hours, Yang Lin visited all the enclosures.
He awakened the talents of those animals that had not yet awakened any.
Even the newly arrived forest wolves and the female golden eagle were not spared.
With the awakening of their talents, these animals underwent changes, more or less.
Some grew larger, some their fur became thicker, and some became more visually appealing.
Of course, they all had one thing in common: they became smarter.
As time reached two o'clock in the morning, only one animal remained to fulfill the system's requirement of 100 awakened creatures.
At this moment, Yang Lin looked at the tortoise crawling at his feet.
He casually picked up the tortoise from the ground and opened its talent panel.
After some consideration, he finally focused on its most unique talent.
[Longevity (Special Talent) requires 1 Talent Point per activation, each activation increases lifespan by 100 years, with a maximum of 1000 years.]
Without a doubt, this was the most special talent Yang Lin had ever seen.
The talents of other animals could only be activated once, but this tortoise's talent could be activated multiple times.
One point for an extra hundred years of life, and theoretically, this tortoise could live for 1000 years.
"No wonder they say a thousand-year-old turtle, ten-thousand-year-old tortoise. I wish I had this talent."
As he spoke, a hint of envy appeared on Yang Lin's face.
Let alone 10 times, even a single year of increased lifespan would be an extravagant wish for humans.
Sighing, Yang Lin clicked the last talent point onto the Longevity talent.
The next second, a ring appeared on the tortoise's shell.
If nothing unexpected happened, it would be able to see off Yang Lin and his descendants.
And as this tortoise's talent awakened, a system prompt echoed in Yang Lin's mind.
