Volume 5: Taming the Beast Chapter 15: The Birth of a Battle Pet (Part 1)
As we all know, Xian Ge Yayi searched for the geese formation on the other side of the river for a long time but failed to find them. Like us, he also thought that the long-haired elf girl would dive into the water alone and take the risk.
The noble and ardent spirit of the Ranger made him dive into the water without hesitation. Unfortunately, when he bravely jumped into the water, the wild geese just jumped out of the water. I believe that the heroic act of Xian Ge Ya Yi came from the heart of the Elf Archer, but it obviously did not go through his brain that was "in the water".
So, his brain was really filled with water again, and there appeared another skinny corpse floating on the calm water surface.
"If that's the case..." Xian Ge Ya Yi seemed to have been severely hit. He said dejectedly, "...then didn't I die unjustly the two times just now?"
Regarding his question, Feiyin and I could only look at him with sympathy.
However, Xian Ge Yayi's clumsy and dull behavior seemed to have greatly won the friendship and goodwill of Yan Zhen. She stared at the face of the elf ranger with her bright eyes and said gratefully:
"Thank you for looking for me so anxiously. I'm so sorry that you died in vain."
"It's nothing, it's nothing..." Xiange Yayi waved his hands and said, his face was red, whether it was because of excitement or happiness, like the clouds dyed by the sunset. He scratched his scalp awkwardly, laughed, and said stupidly: "Look, I can't help you much... Hehe... I can't help you much..."
A sweet and strange atmosphere enveloped us. Feiyin looked at the two of them and smiled at me mysteriously. I suddenly felt that some subtle changes unknown to us were happening quietly between the two of them...
There was no way for us to bring the subdued whirlpool crocodile A. Stan back to the Silver Star River near Moon Creek City - its movements on land were much more clumsy than in water. Instead of expecting it to rely on its four strong short legs to slowly crawl back home step by step, it would be more feasible for us to find a hundred or so helpers to carry it back together.
Fortunately, the underground river in Hongshan is a tributary of the Silver Star River. The giant crocodile can swim back to its habitat along its vortex, which saves us a lot of trouble.
Before leaving, Yan Zhen playfully tickled the nostrils of the giant monster, pointed at the exit of the dark river and reluctantly said goodbye to it. The giant monster in the water seemed to enjoy the feeling of the long-haired female elf's white hands caressing its body. It squinted its eyes, whined twice, wagged its tail, dived into the depths of the underground undercurrent, and soon disappeared.
After helping Yan Zhen complete the job transfer task, we also left the Red Mountain Cave. A group of dark elves came from outside the cave and blocked the entire mountain road. When they met us, this group of dark elf reinforcements who came from nowhere were in bad luck. We killed them all over the place without much effort, leaving a pile of corpses for Fei Yin to satisfy her fanatical hobby of accumulating wealth.
"Damn poor bastard, wearing fancy clothes and yet daring to come out and disgrace himself with only so little money in his pocket, he deserves to die!" Fei Yin greedily raked whatever she could strip off from the corpses into her bag, while complaining in extreme dissatisfaction. From time to time, she would kick the corpses in the face with her pointed boots to vent her anger. She was completely immune to the handsome and elegant faces of the dark elf men.
After all this hard work, I reached level 34, and was only one level away from the requirement for changing my job.
Just like when we came here, we dragged a large group of cute creatures like "little bears" and "little wolves" behind us and crossed the Gem Flower Plain. Along the way, Xiange Yayi was always taken care of by the black-bellied venomous snake. After being poisoned, his little face was bright green, just like a slick celery core. But even so, he always endured and did not fight back against the beast that attacked him.
"In fact, I have always liked animals. I firmly believe that animals are mankind's eternal friends." He said to Yan Zhen with a forced smile while carefully pulling away the poisonous snake tightly wrapped around his arm in a cold sweat.
Nonsense! When I was killing the rabid dog Kaplan , I didn't see that he was going to make "friends" with the big wild dog. On the contrary, he was the most excited and active one in killing wild dogs. Fortunately, the poison of the black-bellied viper made his face flash green all the time, otherwise you would definitely see that his face is red now.
Back in Moonbrook, we went straight to the city's animal trainer, a middle-aged elf with a small goatee, who seemed very happy about the arrival of the wild geese:
"Ah, welcome back, young God-favored One. May the nectar of Naichenia nourish your soul forever..." He said enthusiastically as Yan Zhen walked in front of him, "...You have completed a difficult task. Everything you have done proves that you have a heart of nature. Now, you have gloriously become a member of the Sons of the Wild. I will teach you some basic skills later."
Soon, Ranger Yan Zhen—oh no, it was the beast trainer Yan Zhen—learned the technique of taming wild beasts. This is the most basic technique for a beast trainer. The beasts she tames will become her lifelong comrades and companions, living and fighting side by side with her. Each beast trainer can only tame , and once tamed, he must be loyal to his choice and cannot change pets.
Seeing her good friend successfully complete the job change, Fei Yin rushed over excitedly and asked impatiently: "How is it? Have you thought about it? What kind of pet do you want to catch?"
Xian Ge Yayi also squeezed over immediately and strongly recommended in a rather excited tone: "I heard that the black panther on the top of Uzig Mountain is good. It can hide, sneak attack, and has a relatively high attack power. The purple-winged snake in the Umbrian Valley is not bad either, with poisonous attacks. You can also want a meat shield to protect yourself in battle. The mountain grizzly bear is very good, with high defense and thick blood. Even if you are surrounded and beaten, you have a chance to escape. And..." Looking at his overly enthusiastic look, it was as if he was choosing a pet for himself.
Looking back on all the wild beasts I have encountered , there are not many that are truly powerful and outstanding. Choosing an animal as your fighting partner is not something that can be decided hastily in a short period of time.
"You can consider the vampire bat. It is very fast and has two skills: bloodsucking and screaming. In addition, the prairie spider is also good. Not only is it poisonous, but you can also use it to set traps." I compared them and recommended two options that I thought were good.
"Those messy things are not good enough. If you ask me, Xiao Yanyan, you should keep all the pet places. When you reach a high level, I will accompany you to catch a dragon as a pet. That will be very impressive." I found that Feiyin's imagination was as unfathomable as her obsession with property. However, the feasibility of this idea was lower than letting me defeat the apocalyptic king Darendil and his billions of troops with my bare hands, and it was only slightly more likely than Feiyin giving away half of her property.
"Dragons are magical beasts, right? Tamers cannot tame magical beasts as pets..." Xian Ge Yayi quietly reminded Fei Yin who had said the wrong thing, but her kindness was not rewarded and her ears were stretched longer... Ah, I forgot that elves' ears are originally long.
"Well..." After hearing so many suggestions at once, the long-haired elf tamer found it difficult to make a decision. She frowned and pouted, and her hesitant face looked even cuter. "...I haven't decided what kind of pet I want yet. I think I should see if there are any suitable options first."
"I'll go with you..." Xian Ge Ya Yi hurriedly asked to go with him. As soon as he said that, he probably remembered that he had only known this girl from the same tribe for less than a day, and such an intimate request was too attentive. His face slightly blushed: "...'We' will go with you. Anyway, tomorrow is the weekend, and there is nothing to do tonight."
Fortunately, Feiyin did not find anything wrong with his behavior. The female magician excitedly put her arm around the elf girl's shoulders and waved her arms generously: "Okay, then we will go with you to find it. We must catch you the most majestic and powerful pet..."
