Starting With Contract Pets
chapter-61

Bang bang bang!

A series of emerald energy bullets launched forth, all striking a large tree in the distance on the same spot. With a creaking sound, the whole tree broke apart.

"Good job! You've made quite the progress!" Su Bai praised his pet. This was the result of the cub's continuous practice of releasing energy bullets. Although there was no way to turn the energy bullets' color into dark green, the power of the skill had still become noticeable.

The continuous shooting of energy bullets the size of a rice grain could easily break apart a thirty-centimeter-thick tree. Under the continuous hits of bullets from the Energy Burst skill, even a high-level servant pet would be unable to withstand the terrifying combination of the energy erosion damage and paralysis.

However, this was not its limit. The essence of this skill was condensing spiritual power into energy bullets. The more spiritual power condensed, the stronger the effect, and the higher the upper limit.

If it had been a dark green energy bullet fired, one alone could have destroyed that big tree moments ago.

"Howl! ( ̄^ ̄)" The cub raised its head. It had trained this skill for five consecutive days whenever it was free, so of course it would become good at it.

"Haha! There you go, buddy." Su Bai took out a small bowl, half-filled with energy ointments in various flavors.

He realized that his method was indeed useful. Ever since the cub knew about him seeking a new pet, it had started working hard and even initiated training.

Sure enough, competition provided motivation, and the cub wanted to prove that it was strong enough to be an older sister.

Su Bai sighed secretly. He still had more tricks up his sleeves.

"Howl! (* ̄) ̄)" The cub ate happily, unaware of its owner's thoughts.

Indeed, the cub had made tremendous progress this week. The accumulation of its spiritual power was approaching the 'high-level servant' ceiling, and it should be promoted in half a month at most.

Furthermore, his pet's other skills had also improved tremendously. As for the one with the biggest growth, it was the Vine Whip skill, which was a result of Su Bai's persistent support.

Once the cub was done eating, he smiled at it. "Let's go and take a break, buddy. You practice multitasking while I give the egg some light balls."

"Howl." Nodding, the cub summoned three vine whips, one for weaving blankets, another for attacking stones, and the last one for writing.

It was already capable of multitasking a long time ago; in fact, it could fight against mid-level monsters while playing games.

However, the cub was not that proficient yet as it was only getting started. Su Bai had asked it to practice this for fun and to experiment with a set of fighting styles.

While the cub practiced, he took out the Purgatory Tyrant's egg. This thing was really heavy with its hundred catties weight and almost broke his back, especially since he had been running around with it for training these past five days.

Fortunately, the egg was tough enough that neither the cub's energy bullets nor it falling to the ground could break its shell.

Taking it out of the big backpack, he proceeded to touch the ground. He caught some tawny light balls invisible to ordinary people's eyes and then pressed them into the Purgatory Tyrant's egg.

Because the soil was thick and heavy, he could catch a lot of light balls from it. All the earth, including the trees growing in those spots, seemed to wilt a little upon his touch.

The yellow-brown light balls continued disappearing into the egg, and before long, its earth attribute light balls had reached saturation point for today.

Following which, he took out a few crystal nuclei of undead and fire monsters, then he put the two attribute light balls into the egg.

After a while, the crystal nuclei in his hand cracked and turned grayish white. Su Bai sighed and said, "It's finally full for today. This guy's appetite is way too big."

The earth attribute light balls were fine as they would come out of the soil after a while, but the light balls with fire and undead attributes were not easy to find, so he could only purchase those types of monsters' crystal nuclei.

Especially for the undead attribute light balls, he could only buy the crystal nuclei as his only other option was finding a large burial place.

"Forget it. Tomorrow is Saturday; let's go to the nearby Phoenix Mountain," he muttered. There were a few abandoned hot springs there, so the geothermal energy should be quite abundant.

With the rich geothermal heat, he could get light balls with two attributes and only had to buy the undead crystal nuclei.

Otherwise, he would really be unable to afford it all, especially since the undead crystal nuclei were rarer and even more expensive. Su Bai always bought the flawed mid-level servant undead crystal nuclei, which cost 10,000 yuan a day.

If the fire attribute crystal nuclei were added, he would really become broke. The 540,000 yuan in his hands would not be enough to last even a few days.

After feeding the Purgatory Tyrant's egg until it was saturated, Su Bai put it into its glass container and carried it on his back.

The egg's temperature was very high, and it might burn his backpack if he directly put it inside.

"Let's go, buddy."

He looked up in the sky.

"Howl!"

The cub nodded and followed him.

...

"Huh?"

Su Bai tilted his head and glanced back at the pet which had just walked past them. It was a Green Leaf Snake Lizard.

In order to increase his knowledge and broaden his horizons, he would often use his gold finger to check the information of other pets he encountered.

However, the ordinary pet, which had just walked past them, had a rare attribute he had never seen before.

Its specific information was as follows…

[Name|Rare]: Green Leaf Snake Lizard monster

[Gender]: Male

[Level]: Low-level Warlord

[Attribute]: Blood, Wood, Poison

[Features|Passive]: Blood Power (Can obtain blood-related power by killing other blood pets. Blood Power can improve its strength in all aspects, help it evolve and breakthrough, and awaken its hidden bloodline skills.)

Blood Curse (When it is killed, its Blood Power will be transferred to its killer, resulting in the latter becoming a blood pet.)

[Skills]: Fangs, Entanglement, Parasitic, Energy Ball, Blood Corrosion, Bleeding

[Restrained]: Dragon, earth, water, gold, et cetera

[Weaknesses]: Undead, light, fire

[Evolutionary direction]: Little Green Snake — Green Leaf Snake Lizard — Green Leaf Lord

[Introduction]: This was originally a Little Green Snake, but after being transformed into a blood pet, it gained great power and its strength increased in all aspects.

After being transformed, this Green Leaf Snake Lizard now likes to feast on blood and can gain power from it. However, it is a very difficult monster to entangle with.

If you want to kill it, it is best to use an undead pet. An undead pet can clear most of the Blood Curse via suicide…

*****

Su Bai had never seen or heard of blood pets. The Pet Tamer interface would not introduce the bloodline of any attributes entered into it and would only revolve around the information on a pet.

After thinking for some time, he opened an online browser and checked the information on this matter.
