Unorthodox beast control

Chapter 325 The traces of the oriole behind the scenes

It was night, one person and four pets who had closed their business quietly came to Luo Lei Valley.

"This is it." Looking at the deep valley with terrifying thunder flashing in the distance, Xu Ran lowered his voice and said, "Twelve, can you see anything wrong?"

"Chirp~" (I'll try.)

Twelve couldn't help but look at the direction inside the deep valley.

It could feel that there was a powerful beast king entrenched there.

Of course, it is much worse than my father.

This gave Twelve a little more confidence.

The rich superpower power rippled around its body like water waves, quickly enveloping one person and four pets, isolating it from the surroundings, and indirectly playing a concealing effect in the form of an illusion.

Immediately afterwards, it took one person to three levels and began to carefully explore the outer area of ​​​​Luo Lei Valley.

"The thunder-banded golden willow has always lived inside the valley, so if the guy who made the mark wanted not to disturb it, the mark would be left on the outside of the valley, so that the thunder-banded golden willow would not notice it."

"Cha~" (Nothing.)

Cancan shook his head.

Without saying a word, Cancan immediately dived into the ground and emerged after a moment holding an earth spirit rat.

It seemed to be detecting something quietly, and soon the light converged together with the aura that had just emerged, and fell into dormancy again.

"Chirp?" (How strong is it? What race is it?)

"According to the introduction of the adventure map, there shouldn't be dragon-type thunder-type extraordinary creatures nearby." Xu Ran paused, "Being able to quietly cause the Electric Rabbit clan to die tragically afterwards, the other party's methods are also very weird. "

Twelve nodded and controlled the electric pattern rabbit to talk.

This was clearly not a mark left by some guy.

"Xi Lv~" (Let me tell you about the specific situation at that time.)

The stars on the side neighed, and a thoughtful look appeared in their eyes.

Although each other's Thunder Valley does not have the world-destroying thunder now, there is already a strong surge of thunder power, and there are not a few extraordinary creatures of the thunder system living here.

Although many things about the electric rabbit in front of them were unclear, since they had witnessed the other party with their own eyes, they should be able to deduce some key information from the other party's description.

None of them knew anything about this unusual stone in the ground.

"Zhizhizhi~" (I just arrived here a few days ago and fled.)

"Chirp~" (Okay, let's go back.)

Twelve shook his head helplessly, knowing that he could not get any useful information from the other party, so he just let it burrow back into the soil.

Xu Ran looked at an electric rabbit controlled by Twelve and couldn't help but ask.

It randomly threw out a silk thread to control the poor earth rat, and then stared into the other person's wise eyes.

"You said that a beast king passed by here four months ago?"

The giant dragon did not enter the Thunder Falling Valley, but stood far outside the Thunder Falling Valley observing the situation in the valley, and then quickly turned around and left.

The electric rabbit nodded mechanically.

"Chirp?" (How long have you lived here?)

After it left, the only group of electric-striped rabbits that discovered it faced a disaster. Except for this electric-striped rabbit, which luckily escaped, the other members of the group all died tragically.

It glanced doubtfully in the direction of the ground rat.

The light flashing on the stone became brighter and brighter at this moment.

With its weak strength at the elite level, it is already at its limit to be able to sense that the opponent is a kind of beast king, and it has no idea of ​​the specific strength.

At the same time, deep underground, the Earth Spirit Rat who had just been released by Twelve suddenly hit a rock.

And one day, an uninvited guest came quietly.

Twelve's eyes shone and he quickly asked.

"Chirp~" (Let's go to the next place to see.)

Seeing Twelve fluttering his wings and flying to another place, one person and three pets followed quickly. At this moment, Cancan's footsteps suddenly stopped.

As for race, that is beyond its ability to know.

A trace of energy escaped from the body of the fallen earth spirit rat, and was quickly swallowed up by the strange stone.

The next moment, lightning flashed on the surface of the stone, turning the Earth Rat into ashes.

It must be my own misunderstanding.

Under the leadership of Twelve, they quickly made new discoveries.

While analyzing, Twelve flapped his wings and flew quickly over the scene in front of him, and soon landed somewhere, "There is a trace of abnormal aura left here."

It was an extraordinary creature that looked like a giant dragon. There was not much power surging around it, and it seemed to be deliberately keeping a low profile.

Hearing this question, the electric striped rabbit's face became a little confused, and it shook its head subconsciously.

"Cha!" (Leave it to me!)

Because of this, this electric-striped rabbit was deeply impressed by the opponent.

twelve:"…"

"A giant dragon...an extraordinary dragon creature?" After listening to the electric rabbit's story, Xu Ran touched his chin with a thoughtful look on his face, "Sure enough, Twelve's guess is right."

But it happened to pass near the Electric Rabbit clan, and the fear derived from its life instinct made the Electric Rabbit immediately judge that the other party was a kind of beast king.

"What's wrong?" Xu Ran asked.

Four months ago, this electric rabbit and its tribe were active around Thunder Valley.

"Chirp~" (That guy should be the oriole behind the scenes, while the Thunder-banded Golden Willow is just the opponent on the surface.)

Twelve came to the conclusion confidently.

"Chirp~" (It wants to kill the electric-striped rabbit clan in order to prevent its whereabouts from being discovered. If it takes action directly, it will be noticed by the Thunder-banded Golden Willow, so it can only use this method.)

"Meow~" (It's just that this electric rabbit was lucky and didn't die.)

Ziyun took over the conversation and looked at the controlled electric rabbit.

"Let it go, we already know the situation." Xu Ran said softly, "It seems that there are other troubles in obtaining Ziyun's resources."

He took a deep look in the direction of Luo Lei Valley.

From this position, part of the towering canopy of the thunder-banded golden willow can be vaguely seen.

Originally, Xu Ran thought that the Thunder Pattern Golden Willow was the last hurdle for them to obtain the Extinction Thunder, but now it seems that this is not the case.

"Let's get here first today."

He spoke softly, and then returned the same way with the four little ones.

When one person and four pets walked to the position where Twelve controlled the earth spirit rat, Cancan couldn't help but stop again and kept looking in the direction where the earth spirit rat left.

"What's wrong?" Xu Ran asked curiously.

"Cha~" (I feel that the spirit rat's aura has disappeared.)

"Meow~" (She was startled by us and must have gone somewhere else.)

Zi Yunhun waved his paw carelessly.

Twelve and Xingchen did not take this matter seriously.

"Cha~" (Maybe.)

After thinking for a while, Cancan nodded and no longer struggled with the issue.

One person and four pets quickly disappeared in place.

After returning to the store and recording the new discoveries on his adventure map, Xu Ran threw the adventure map aside and looked at the four little ones in front of him.

"A lot of things happened today." He smiled, "But the most important thing is that Twelve successfully completed the evolution and returned to us."

"Chirp~" (Yes!)

Twelve nodded heavily, his sea-blue eyes full of energy.

"Don't worry too much about the giant thunder dragon hiding behind." Xu Ran paused slightly, "We are bound to get this extermination lightning trigger. If it doesn't work, we still have the last trump card."

"Meow~" (You mean...)

Ziyun looked at Xu Ran and widened his eyes.

"Yes, that's it." Xu Ran carefully took out a treasured leaf. The green-gold leaf was covered with mysterious and magical lines, which made people dizzy just by looking at it.

"Chirp?" (Is this the semi-holy leaf?)

The twelve curious ones, who had heard about this thing from the other three little ones but had never seen it, came up to it with a look of surprise on their faces.

"Cha~" (It can easily change the rules around it.)

Cancan also came closer, with a look of longing on his face.

I don’t know when I will become so powerful.

"This resource is our last resort. We should not use it unless absolutely necessary." Xu Ran put it away carefully. "There is still one month left. All we can do is work hard to become stronger."

"If you are strong enough, you don't need to rely on external force."

"Meow~" (I still have three skills that have not been upgraded to four stars.)

Ziyun spoke immediately.

In one month, it can allocate resources twice. If it goes smoothly, it hopes to upgrade all its skills to four stars before the extermination thunder is born.

The improvement of star rating is only one aspect. What is more important is the improvement of skill proficiency.

"Meow~" (Next time when resources are allocated, my skills will be gradually upgraded to the Fierce Sun level.)

Ziyun spoke seriously.

The high-intensity training during this period has greatly improved the proficiency of its various skills. In addition, it has been exchanged for a large number of skill points. It is no longer possible to upgrade the skill proficiency to the Lieyang level two levels in advance. It's a dream.

And when all skill proficiency levels are raised to the Lieyang level, and all skills reach four stars, Ziyun's evolution conditions will be basically met, and evolution will not be far away.

"Xi Lv~" (I also want to have a second four-star skill as soon as possible.)

Xingchen did not want to be outdone and spoke.

Starry Night Prayer has given it a taste of the sweetness, and it is looking forward to the next second skill.

"Just..." (Me too...)

Cancan opened her mouth and was about to speak when she met the eyes of Ziyun and Xingchen and weakly shrank her head.

"Cha~" (I will also cheer for you!)

Damn it, when will the next evolution route for the emperor race come out!

"Chirp~" (It seems that I will break through to the general level as soon as possible.)

Looking at the three friends, Twelve had a thoughtful look on his face.

With Xu Ran's casual addition of points, it had just evolved and broken through to the Commander level, and it had reached the completion of the Commander level. It was not constrained by the bottleneck of growth levels and could advance to the General level at any time.

But just because you can break through doesn't mean you have to break through.

Having just acquired a large amount of new powers, the most important thing for Twelve at this moment is to consolidate and become proficient in these powers. After he has complete control, it will be too late to advance.

"Chirp~" (I need to use the super training area!)

Thinking of this, Twelve spoke seriously.

"I have given you the same permissions as Ziyun, Xingchen, and Cancan." Xu Ran raised his hand and gestured twice, "You can enter the training area at will. The maximum training time per day is eight hours."

"Xi Lv~" (Let's go, let's go training together!)

Xingchen neighed and asked for a training partner.

Soon, the four little ones disappeared into the room.

Looking at the empty room again, Xu Ran smiled, slowly closed his eyes, and quickly fell into meditation.

Silent all night.

Early the next morning, Xu Ran left the four little ones who had been training hard all night in the room and went to the foster care area alone.

In the foster care area, Mr. Han, the system employee responsible for feeding, is feeding the residents in the foster care area.

"Hello boss, would you like a piece of my special pan-fried pork chop?" Mr. Han smiled and picked up a plate of fragrant meat and handed it to Xu Ran.

"What kind of meat?" Xu Ran asked warily.

"If you know, then boss you probably won't have any appetite." Mr. Han shrugged and put the meat back in his hand.

The corner of Xu Ran's mouth twitched slightly, but he did not forget the purpose of coming this time. "How has the situation of King Yinhao been in the past two days?"

"Very good." Mr. Han smiled. "Eat well, sleep well, and play well. The only disadvantage is that there is no pleasure value." "Sure enough, it is still the same as before." Xu Ran, who was enjoying the delicious food in the distance, sighed slightly, "Okay, I'll contact its beast master. I don't need to worry about this resident for the time being."

Except for Yinghuo who is under special circumstances, King Yinhao is the only foster resident in the store. It is Xu Ran's obligation to make him live a happy life.

Although King Yinhao acted happy everywhere, Xu Ran could have pretended not to see the system's pleasure value reminder, but this was not what he wanted.

This has been the case for three days in a row, and it's time to call Zong Hua.

"Although leisure is not my original intention." Mr. Han shrugged, "But my workload will be reduced by half again."

"The foster care business will slowly pick up, and so will the sparring partners." Xu Ran comforted him casually, and quickly turned around and came to the store.

After saying hello to the system store manager, he dug out the business card Zong Hua gave him from the drawer behind the counter and dialed the number.

"Hello, I'm Zong Hua."

Not long after, Zong Hua's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Mr. Zong Hua, this is Xinghuo Nursing Home, and I am Xu Ran." Xu Ran took a deep breath and spoke slowly.

"Oh, it turns out to be Boss Xu, what's wrong? Is my Yinhao King fostering at your place doing well?" Zong Hua smiled heartily.

"No, its condition may not be good." Xu Ran shook his head slightly, and his voice became a little more solemn.

On the other end of the phone, the smile on Zong Hua's face gradually disappeared.

He didn't speak, and immediately used the contract induction to contact the old man in the Spark Nursing Home.

"Silver, how do you feel about your life in the Spark Nursing Home?"

Soon, King Yinhao responded through contract induction.

“Everything here is great!”

Zong Hua: "???"

Excellent?

But why does Boss Xu say that the condition of his pet beast is not particularly good?

Under normal circumstances, the foster care shop thinks there is nothing wrong with the pet animal, and it is only the pet animal that thinks there is a problem.

Now it's the other way around.

"Okay, you stay here first." Zong Hua used his contract sense to say something, then picked up the phone receiver and said, "Boss Xu, are you still here?"

"I'm here." Xu Ran responded quickly.

"I just asked my pet beast through the contract induction. It said it has no problem?" Zong Hua said with confusion on his face, "What do you think is wrong with it?"

"It may not be easy to explain this matter clearly over the phone. If possible, I hope you can come over." Xu Ran paused slightly, "After a few days of observation, I think it is pretending to be happy."

"This..." Zong Hua couldn't help but feel a little confused on his face, "Okay, I'll come over right now."

He hung up the phone, sat up from the bed, quickly dressed and walked out of his room.

In the living room, his wife was helping her daughter complete her homework. When she saw Zong Hua walking out, her daughter seemed quite happy, "Dad, are we going to the amusement park?"

"We'll go in the afternoon, don't be in a hurry." Zong Hua smiled and shook his head. He suddenly thought of Xu Ran's call to him just now and tentatively said, "How about we take King Yinhao to the amusement park with us?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, the smile on her daughter's face disappeared. She pursed her lips, with a bit of worry and fear on her face, and tears quickly rolled in her eyes.

"Didn't King Yinhao take good care of him? Just don't take him away." The wife sighed, "Xiaoru was frightened by King Yinhao before, and now she still has nightmares occasionally."

"Okay." Unable to resist his wife and daughter, Zong Hua shook his head, turned around and walked out of the house, "I'm going to see King Yinhao."

Not long after, Zong Hua came to Xinghuo Nursing Home.

Passing through the dense queue of customers in front of the door, Zong Hua went straight into the store and soon saw Xu Ran waiting for him.

"Mr. Zong Hua, please come this way." Xu Ran led Zong Hua towards the foster care area and said at the same time, "Your pet behaved normally during the foster care process, but our store has a special way to sense whether the pet is A joy that comes from within.”

"And the answer is no." He looked at Zong Hua, who was listening attentively, "Your pet's happiness does not come from the heart, it is more like pretending."

"You said before that if King Yinhao is unhappy, he will call you, so..."

"So you called me." Zong Hua took over, with a confused look on his face, "But why does my Yinhao King pretend to be happy?"

"You should know this question better than I do." Xu Ran glanced at Mr. Zong Hua, "Can you tell me how long you have been fostering King Yinhao and why you have been fostering him?"

"Is this..." Zong Hua's face revealed memories, "The first time I fostered King Yinhao was probably half a year ago."

"You know, the Yinhao King race is extremely cruel to their enemies when fighting, but they are very loyal to their beast masters."

"I am a combatant and often need to fight side by side with King Yinhao. I am no stranger to its ferocious appearance. However, my wife and daughter have only seen King Yinhao's honest and honest appearance at home."

"Once, it followed my daughter out and encountered a pet beast that went crazy and attacked all around." Zong Hua sighed, "King Yinhao chose to protect my daughter without hesitation, but his methods were too cruel. .”

"When it tore the crazy beast into pieces and then stood in front of my daughter covered in blood, my daughter fainted from fright."

"Since then, my daughter has often had nightmares. My wife and I discussed that we had no choice but to temporarily foster King Yinhao for a while."

"This foster care has lasted until now." At this point, Zong Hua couldn't help but sigh.

"I understand that King Yinhao did nothing wrong. Its fighting style is so cruel and difficult to change, but I can't watch my daughter become mentally exhausted because of nightmares every day."

"The only consolation is that King Yinhao is not opposed to the foster care arrangement and has always been very happy in the foster care shop."

Zong Hua paused, "The reason why I asked Boss Xu to tell me anytime you find it unhappy is because I want it to stay happy in the foster care place. This will make me feel less guilty about it, but... "

"But you told me that its happiness is just fake."

"Did King Yinhao always behave like this in the last foster care shop?" Xu Ran was silent for a moment and couldn't help but ask.

"Not bad." Zong Hua looked at King Yinhao who was beating stone pillars and running quickly in the living area in the distance. "In the last foster care shop, King Yinhao also lived like this."

"Perhaps King Yinhao doesn't like foster care, but he never said it." Xu Ran said softly.

Listening to Zong Hua's story about King Yinhao, he already had some guesses.

"Mr. Zong Hua, is it possible that King Yinhao doesn't want to scare your daughter again when he returns home, and doesn't want you to blame yourself even more during the foster care process, so he keeps pretending to be happy?"

"This..." Zong Hua's body shook, and his expression instantly became complicated.

He looked deeply at the old man not far away and fell into silence.

Before Xu Ran told him this, Zong Hua always thought that his Yinhao King was easily satisfied, so he was fostered outside and lived very happily every day.

But now, Xu Ran told him that his pet beast was not as happy as it seemed, which also made him reflect on the performance of King Yinhao in the past six months.

After deliberate reasoning, Zong Hua also discovered some unreasonable things from King Yinhao's performance in the past.

In his heart, he had gradually believed Xu Ran's speculation.

An inexplicable sourness came to his heart, making Zong Hua's eyes turn red.

"You guy!" He couldn't help but rush towards King Yinhao quickly.

King Yinhao, who was immersed in his hard performance, felt the familiar scent approaching quickly, and then realized that Zong Hua was coming.

An imperceptible look of surprise flashed deep in its eyes, and it wanted to rush forward to greet him at the same time, but quickly held it back.

Hmm... You can't let the beast master feel that you are very excited. Being excited means that you are not happy here, and you must not let the beast master see this.

Thinking of this, King Yinhao continued to hammer the stone pillar with a normal expression. When Zong Hua was almost close, Shi Shiran stopped.

As everyone knows, all its actions are under the observation of Xu Ran and Zong Hua.

Under careful observation, King Yinhao's little thoughts were full of flaws.

"Baiyin, you are not happy here, are you?" Zong Hua was silent for a moment, then stepped forward and hugged King Yinhao tightly, "Why didn't you tell me?"

"…Roar?"

King Yinhao's heart trembled, and he quickly showed a confused and confused look, as if he was confused as to why his beastmaster said this.

"Stop pretending, I know everything." Zong Hua's eyes became even redder, with tears in his eyes, "I can't help you, and you have been wronged during this time."

Hearing the beastmaster's sincere words, King Yinhao understood that the other party already knew the truth.

It was silent for a moment, then stopped pretending and showed a disappointed expression.

"Come home with me!" Zong Hua said without hesitation, "We will never foster him again" as his previous guess was completely confirmed from King Yinhao's expression.

A glimmer of light quickly flashed in King Yinhao's eyes, but then dimmed again, and he shook his head vigorously.

"roar~"

I will scare Xiaoru when I go home.

"But you are also a member of the family." Zong Hua and King Yinhao looked at each other, "I will find other ways to solve Xiaoru's problem."

"Perhaps you can ask a psychiatrist to enlighten her."

"You saved her, she shouldn't be afraid of you."

This time, Zong Hua's attitude was extremely firm.

Thinking that King Yinhao had not been able to go home for the past six months and had always pretended to be happy in order not to worry him, he felt heartache at this moment.

No matter what he said, he had to make up for the debt in his heart.

"Psychiatrist..." After hearing Zong Hua's words, Xu Ran looked thoughtful.

After a moment, he suddenly said, "Mr. Zong Hua, if you need to enlighten your daughter, I may be able to help."

"Oh?" Zong Hua's eyes lit up, "Boss Xu, do you have any idea?"

"I have a super pet beast. Maybe I can find a way to enlighten your daughter." Xu Ran smiled and said, "Would you like to try it?"

"A super pet beast... This attribute of the pet beast does have some ability to enlighten the spirit." A look of expectation appeared on Zong Hua's face, "I didn't expect you, Boss Xu, to have such a pet beast. So, then please."

"It's a small matter." Xu Ran shook his head slightly, "Since King Yinhao is no longer fostering, I will refund the extra foster care fee to you, and then we can set off."

"There's no need to refund the money." Zong Hua shook his head without hesitation, "If it weren't for Boss Xu, I wouldn't have discovered the silver problem until now. The extra foster care fee will be used as a thank you gift."

"Then I'll be disrespectful." Xu Ran smiled.

When the two returned to the store, the four little ones were already waiting.

Xu Ran contacted Twelve through the contract induction in advance, but the other three little ones only learned of the situation and all clamored to go together.

"Twelve, you should know the situation. Can you enlighten the other party?" Xu Ran asked casually.

"Chirp~" (No problem at all!)

Twelve's expression was a bit proud.

Before it completed its evolution, it could easily erase the psychological shadows of others with the Wu Zheng Order. Now that it has evolved into the Deep Sleeping Bird, it has richer means. Such a small fact is too simple.

Seeing Twelve's confident look, Xu Ran smiled and looked at Zong Hua aside.

"In that case, we can go to your house."
