Beast Tamer: My pet has a game panel
#346 - Kind-hearted Bai Tingting
Two weeks later.
In the eastern part of the Kingdom of Light, within a certain viscount's territory, a roaring bonfire illuminated the dark night in a secluded forest.
Inside the bonfire, the wood crackled and popped as it burned, and around the fire, several young figures wearily tended to the flames.
Just then, a composed-looking young man walked in from outside, and sat down by the bonfire with practiced ease, drawing the gazes of the others.
"Old Qin, how was it? Did you hear any news? Is there any information that might be related to Teacher, Senior, or Ye Mo and the others?"
Beside the bonfire, a young man whose face was lit by the flames looked at the person who had just returned and asked.
As soon as the young man spoke, the other one man and two women turned their heads, curiously looking at the composed young man who had just returned.
The composed young man shook his head and replied, "I only went to a tavern. Even if it's the biggest tavern around, it's still just the biggest tavern in a viscount's territory, so there's not much news to be had."
"As for news, there are a few things that might be related to Teacher and Senior, but nothing about Ye Mo."
These people were the same classmates who had come to this world with Ye Mo. Among them were Bai Tingting from the Magic City Academy, who had the Wind Spirit Azure Luan as her spirit pet, Wang Ruolong, who had two spirit pets, Xia Yuening from the Ancient Capital Academy, who specialized in light magic, Yin Xiaozhuo, who had awakened a powerful talent, and Qin Mu, who was the strongest in combat among them.
In the past, in Yanhuang, when they were at school, they were admired by their classmates as powerful individuals, the true prodigies among the students. But even for them, these past few months in this world had been truly rough.
When they first went to the eastern part of the Kingdom of Light, they couldn't stand the behavior of the nobles and stood up for what was right, resulting in them being wanted by the nobles. Later, after they dealt with that noble, they were wanted by an earl, and so they had been wanted ever since, only able to rest in the wilderness or in small town inns.
Today was clearly the same for them.
Qin Mu, the strongest among the special recruits from the Ancient Capital Academy and the de facto leader of the current team, shook his head and said with a wry smile, "You all know that we are only Tier 3 Beast Tamers. Even if our strength is no weaker than the average Tier 4 Grand Professional here, we can't be considered strong."
"So, it's too difficult for Ye Mo and us to make any big waves."
Hearing these self-deprecating words, Bai Tingting, Wang Ruolong, and the others nodded secretly, agreeing wholeheartedly.
When they first arrived here, looking at so many ordinary people who weren't even transcendents, they felt that their strength was not weak. Even if they weren't considered strong in the kingdom, they could be considered someone in an earl's territory.
As a result, after a wanted order was issued, with the public reporting them, mercenaries chasing them, and the army pursuing them, they had nowhere to rest, and their journey could only be described as a desperate escape.
Their strength was actually not weak. Wang Ruolong, Xia Yuening, Yin Xiaozhuo, and Bai Tingting all possessed the top-tier combat power of Tier 3, and some of them, under special circumstances, could display combat power no weaker than Tier 4 transcendents.
Not to mention Qin Mu, who had Tier 4 combat power in his normal state. Overall, their five-person team was quite strong.
But precisely because of this, the bounty offered by the earl who wanted them had been raised to a very large number, which led to the fact that those who were chasing them were also not weak, and were extremely insidious and cunning, especially in dealing with their own kind. Those people had far more experience than them.
This was what led to their current situation, where they even had to change their appearance and figure to go to a tavern, let alone anything else.
Beside the bonfire, everyone sighed, thinking of the bitter days of the past two months.
Waving his hand, feeling the warmth of the flames, Wang Ruolong turned his head and asked, "Alright, Old Qin, then quickly tell us what interesting things have happened recently. We can only rely on this to pass the boredom now."
Bai Tingting and Xia Yuening nodded repeatedly, their curious gazes fixed on Qin Mu. Even Yin Xiaozhuo, who usually hid his entire body in a black robe, pulled back the curtain at this moment, revealing his eyes and looking over expectantly.
Faced with the curious gazes of his companions, Qin Mu would not spoil the mood, of course. After taking out food from his contract space and distributing it, he began to talk about the news he had obtained from the tavern.
"I got a lot of news this time. The news within the Kingdom of Light is relatively ordinary, such as so-and-so successfully advancing, or so-and-so noble family is getting married. I won't mention those. But quite a few major events have happened in the neighboring principalities."
"What major events? Which principality?"
"The Fire Lion Principality? A Summoner? That should be your team leader, right? I remember she seemed to have gone to the Fire Lion Principality."
Listening to Qin Mu's narration, Bai Tingting recalled and said.
Qin Mu nodded, looked around at everyone, and said, "If there are no accidents, it should be Teacher Lian. I've seen her spirit pet, and it's very similar to that unknown summoned beast."
Hearing this, Xia Yuening, who was from the Ancient Capital Academy like Qin Mu, rested her chin on her hands, her face full of anticipation, "It's Teacher Lian, ah. I really want to go find her. With her around, that trash earl should be easily dealt with, right?"
As soon as these words came out, the others revealed expectant looks. That earl who had them wanted had really made their lives miserable.
If possible, they really hoped that earl would suffer a terrible death, but now…
"It's already August. We'll have to go back in a few days. There's no time to go find Teacher Lian. Besides, it's not good to trouble the teacher with this kind of thing," Yin Xiaozhuo said in a muffled voice from under his black robe.
"Ah——" Sighs rang out one after another, and Bai Tingting and the others revealed regretful expressions. If they couldn't resolve the matter this time, there would be no next chance for revenge. This was what they felt most regretful about.
"Let's not talk about this. Qin Mu, continue talking. I still want to see if there are any other big news."
Faced with his companion's words, Qin Mu nodded and continued to speak.
In the following time, he talked about many things about that expert in the Fire Lion Principality, as well as some major events in the Wasteland Principality and the Bernard Principality, and some mysterious events that sounded related to Beast Tamers.
After hearing these events one by one, Bai Tingting and the others felt more and more depressed. If they guessed correctly, half of those things were done by the teachers and seniors.
And according to those events, even if the seniors' situation wasn't very good, they could be considered carefree, completely different from their days of hiding here and there.
After everyone sighed, Qin Mu had already reached the last principality, which was also the only principality on the sea, the Black Stone Principality.
“Many big things have also happened in the Black Stone Duchy. It is said that the pirates there are becoming increasingly rampant. Ships going there reportedly face a near-death experience to enter unscathed. As a result, many merchant ships no longer travel to the southern side of the Black Stone Duchy, not even the ships of nobles.”
“That fierce? Nobles are so powerful, yet they're afraid of pirates?”
“Heh, nobles are indeed powerful here, but it's different in the Black Stone Duchy. I heard that several viscounts have already been attacked by pirates, the kind that land on islands and loot them. It is even said that an earl of the Black Stone Duchy died at the hands of pirates because of this.”
“An earl? Impossible, that's an earl! The one who chased us so relentlessly was also an earl. Could it be that the earls of the Black Stone Duchy are weak? Come to think of it, it's quite possible, since the Black Stone Duchy and the Bernard Duchy to the east are the two weakest countries.”
Hearing his companion's surprise and doubt, Qin Mu smiled and shook his head, then continued, “I initially thought the same as you, but the earl who died was the strongest earl in the Black Stone Duchy. It is said that his daughter is the current Grand Duchess of Black Stone's wife.”
“Hiss—”
Bai Tingting, Wang Ruolong, Xia Yuening, and the others all gasped. This news was truly significant. Logically speaking, that was the Grand Duke of Black Stone's father-in-law, yet he was killed by pirates. These pirates are too bold and too cruel.
“Black Stone Duchy, if I remember correctly, one of the places Ye Mo was planning to go to was there.” Suddenly remembering this, Bai Tingting's mind seemed to jolt awake, becoming much clearer.
Wang Ruolong stroked his chin, thoughtfully saying, “That's right, I remember him saying that he would either go to the west of the kingdom or to the Black Stone Duchy. If he went to the former, it would be fine, but the latter…”
Having said this, both Wang Ruolong and Bai Tingting revealed worried expressions, especially the latter. As someone who was once on the same team as Ye Mo, and with Ye Mo having saved her life, she was arguably the most worried among them.
Although she still had faith in Ye Mo's personal strength, this was a different world, where even an earl could be killed by pirates. As a student, if he had bad luck, it was entirely possible for him to die here.
Qin Mu, Yin Xiaozhuo, and Xia Yuening also showed worried expressions, but compared to Bai Tingting and the others, they were much less concerned, as their relationship with Ye Mo wasn't very deep.
“Now, we can only hope that Ye Mo didn't go to the Black Stone Duchy, otherwise…” Yin Xiaozhuo shook his head and sighed.
On the other side, the lively Xia Yuening, seeing everyone's appearance, quickly joked, “Don't worry, that guy Ye Mo is lucky and destined for a long life. He definitely will be fine.”
“Besides, his strength is very strong. Maybe when we go back, he will have gained even more than us.”
Interrupted by this, everyone's mood improved a lot. Wang Ruolong even continued, “How is that possible? Although we have been wanted, we still have gains.”
“We obtained two three-leaf century grasses, which can be used to break through to the fourth rank. If we ask a potion master to make them, we can make four breakthrough potions.”
As he said this, Wang Ruolong had a smug smile on his face. These two herbs were obtained from a viscount, who was the noble who initially wanted them.
Not long ago, they successfully took revenge on the other party and killed the viscount. As a result, he discovered these two herbs while cleaning up the loot, which was truly an unexpected gain.
Although they couldn't take revenge on an earl, this gain alone was enough to dispel their unhappiness during this time.
At this time, Xia Yuening heard this and subconsciously asked, “Four breakthrough potions, we have five people, how should we divide them?”
As soon as these words came out, the scene suddenly became much quieter. The others were actually aware of this, but because it was indeed difficult to divide, and everyone was still a student with thin skin, they had not brought it up.
After a while, Qin Mu pursed his lips, determined, and was about to say something when Bai Tingting stood up.
Looking at everyone's surprised gazes, Bai Tingting smiled and said, “I think, how about I just forget it? You can each have one of the four potions.”
Before the others could speak, she continued, “Some of you may not be clear, although breakthrough potions help to break through to the fourth rank, it's not guaranteed, especially for our spirit pets with high race levels and are very young.”
“If you want them to break through to the fourth rank in a short period of time, one breakthrough potion may not be enough, so there's no need to divide these potions anymore. One for each of you, that's the best.”
The others could finally speak after hearing this.
“What about you?”
Hearing this, Bai Tingting smiled and said, “When we obtained these two herbs, Qin Mu contributed the most. Without him, no one could have stopped the fourth-rank expert from the viscount's family, so it's normal for him to take one. And Wang Ruolong, he discovered these two herbs. Without him, we might not have found these two herbs even when we left, so it's not a problem for him to take one either.”
“Then there are the three of us. In terms of contribution, the three of us are about the same, but I'm different. My father is the chairman of the Haifan Group.”
“You should know that our gains in this world are only these, but the teachers and seniors must have gained more than this. At that time, relying on my status and background, buying a few breakthrough potions from the school definitely won't be a problem, so you can divide these breakthrough potions.”
Speaking of this, Bai Tingting paused for a while before continuing with a smile, “Of course, remember to give me the money for buying the potions at that time.”
Hearing this, whether it was Xia Yuening or Yin Xiaozhuo, they nodded vigorously.
Qin Mu, who was on the side, nodded secretly in his heart after hearing this. Although it sounded very fair, after all, Xia Yuening and the others also contributed money, it was not actually the case. Breakthrough potions could not be bought with money. Although the price was fixed at a certain number, it was actually always in a state of being available but not for sale.
This time, Xia Yuening and the two can be regarded as owing a great favor, but with the cognition of those two, I am afraid they are not clear about these.
Thinking about it, Qin Mu shook his head, feeling a little emotional in his heart.
At this moment, Bai Tingting felt very satisfied with the method she had just thought of. With her father's identity and the relationship with the school, buying a few breakthrough potions should not be a problem.
Bai Tingting thought to herself, if possible, she must buy a few more bottles. Ye Mo might need them, and her good best friend Liu Mengxi, maybe she will need one when her spirit pet reaches the third-rank peak in the future.
