Beastmaster: I don’t want to be a breeder!

Li Cunxu slumped to the ground, a puddle of sweat beneath him. His hands had unknowingly gripped the bedding, tearing it in the process.

Little White Spider lovingly helped Li Cunxu onto the bed, noticing blood flowing from the corner of his mouth. She pried his mouth open to inspect it.

He had bitten his teeth so hard he drew blood and even shattered a canine tooth.

“How much pain was he in?! He even bit off a tooth!”

Little White Spider exclaimed.

Half an hour later, Li Cunxu woke up.

It wasn't because he had slept enough, but because he was startled awake. He had a nightmare, one that repeated the pain of expanding his Beast Space.

Little White Spider thoughtfully handed him a bottle of Happy Water.

This Happy Water was the real deal – juice infused with Emotion Joy Fruits. Drinking it could genuinely make you happy for an entire day, and it wasn't addictive. Unfortunately, Emotion Joy Fruits were scarce, making Happy Water expensive and rare on the market.

If he hadn't asked his sister, Li Cunxu might not have been able to buy it.

The excruciating pain of expanding the Beast Space wasn't just ordinary pain; it was the kind that left psychological scars.

Some Beast Masters became afraid of the pain, developing a fear that prevented them from breaking through and advancing.

But having a bottle of Happy Water right after enduring the pain of expanding the Beast Space could effectively alleviate the psychological trauma.

Just as Li Cunxu was about to drink the Happy Water, he felt something in his mouth. He spat it into the trash can, revealing a semi-congealed blood clot.

Little White Spider quickly brought a glass of plain water for Li Cunxu to rinse his mouth.

A warm feeling flashed through Li Cunxu's heart, and he rubbed the head of the sensible Little White Spider.

“Thank you.”

After rinsing his mouth and drinking the Happy Water, a joyful emotion surged through Li Cunxu's weary body and mind. His mood instantly lifted, and his body slowly regained its vitality.

“How long did I endure the pain?” Li Cunxu asked.

“Forty minutes, twice as long as others.”

Little White Spider, who had been keeping time, replied.

For Bronze-level Beast Masters, the expansion and stabilization of their Beast Space usually took twenty minutes.

Li Cunxu muttered to himself, “Doubled again.”

The time it took to open his Beast Space initially was also twice as long as others.

Li Cunxu internally examined his Beast Space, looking at the enlarged space. He exclaimed that the pain was worth it.

The maximum size of other people's Bronze-level Beast Space was fifty cubic meters, while Li Cunxu's Beast Space was one hundred cubic meters.

The Carrying Points, like last time, were also double that of others.

Breaking through from Black Iron to Bronze and stabilizing the Beast Space usually granted a maximum of ten Carrying Points, but Li Cunxu received twenty.

Li Cunxu had a total of thirty Carrying Points. Embedding four Oddities had used up six points, leaving him with twenty-four.

The Cornerstone Dice occupied one point, the Pure Water Source occupied five points, the medicinal soil patch repaired with inferior Rebirth Water occupied one point, but this one point was reduced by the Cornerstone Dice rolling a one, and the Emergency Escape Device also required one Carrying Point, but was also reduced by the Cornerstone Dice's guaranteed one.

Li Cunxu took out the Three-Star Oddity, Dragon Blood Gem (Golden Dragon), that Lin Qingwei had given him and embedded it into his Beast Space.

【Oddity · Dragon Blood Gem (Golden Dragon)】

【Carrying Points: 8】

The unremarkable Cornerstone Dice shook and spun incessantly.

Li Cunxu silently chanted in his heart, “Roll a six, roll a six.”

Lady Luck didn't visit, and a six didn't appear, but it wasn't bad either. This time, it didn't roll the guaranteed one, but a two.

8-2 = 6

In other words, Li Cunxu only used six Carrying Points to embed the Dragon Blood Gem (Golden Dragon).

The Dragon Blood Gem (Golden Dragon) reduced by two, the Pure Water Source reduced by one, the medicinal soil patch reduced by one, and the Emergency Escape Device reduced by one.

Li Cunxu frowned. To maximize the effect of the Oddity · Dragon Blood Gem (Golden Dragon) and develop gold, he needed more soil.

Gold mines only developed underground in soil.

If there was too little soil, the development of the gold mine would be limited.

Li Cunxu planned to buy some Oddity · Square Soil Blocks to lay a layer of soil in his Beast Space.

The soil derived from Square Soil Blocks was ordinary soil, not the medicinal soil specially used for cultivating medicinal herbs that was derived from the Medicinal Soil Patch. Therefore, Square Soil Blocks weren't as precious. In addition, the output of Square Soil Blocks was relatively high, making them one of the few Oddities that Li Cunxu could afford and buy.

One-Star, one-point Square Soil Blocks could generate one acre of soil.

One-Star, two-point Square Soil Blocks could generate ten acres of soil.

One-Star, three-point Square Soil Blocks could generate one hundred acres of soil.

The latest and most complete novels are on 69shuba!

… …

For every additional Carrying Point, the soil generated by the Square Soil Blocks increased tenfold.

Many people preferred to embed One-Star, three-point Square Soil Blocks because they were more cost-effective.

For example, a One-Star, three-point Square Soil Block only cost three Carrying Points to obtain one hundred acres of soil, while One-Star, one-point Square Soil Blocks required one hundred of them, occupying one hundred Carrying Points, to reach the one hundred acres of soil of a One-Star, three-point Square Soil Block.

Therefore, One-Star, one-point Square Soil Blocks were basically unwanted, and there were many, many One-Star, one-point Square Soil Blocks piled up on the market.

High volume, low price.

One-Star, one-point Square Soil Blocks were only six thousand each, a bargain for Li Cunxu.

Li Cunxu bought one hundred One-Star, one-point Square Soil Blocks online in one go. Due to the large purchase volume, he even got a 9.5% discount, spending only 570,000 to buy them.

As soon as the delivery arrived, Li Cunxu embedded them, and soon, a layer of soil was laid in the Beast Space.

The gold mine was also quietly growing under the soil.

Speaking of gold mines, Li Cunxu was a little worried. Clearly, the Godly Beast Continent had super-abundant underground resources, but the Miner Slimes had been digging for so long and hadn't dug up a single gold mine.

Apart from iron ore veins, there were no traces of other metal ore veins either, and the iron ore veins they dug up were all small ore veins that would be exhausted after a few days of mining.

“It's impossible that there are no ore veins underground. Is my luck too bad, and I haven't encountered one, or has someone siphoned away the ore veins under the Muye Plains?”

Li Cunxu leaned toward the latter guess.

No matter how unlucky a person was, it was impossible not to pick up any gold in a place full of gold.

Besides, Li Cunxu didn't think he was a super unlucky person.

“Wait a minute, something's strange. I haven't seen a trace of a gold mine for several months. I should have realized long ago that the ore veins under the Muye Plains might have been siphoned away. Why did I only realize it after breaking through to the Bronze level?”

“Could it be that someone has set up a cognitive barrier that makes people ignore the siphoning of underground ore veins?”

“Being so secretive doesn't seem like something the above-board Alliance would do.”

“Could there be some kind of conspiracy here?”

“Does the Geological Survey Bureau of Pupil City know about this?”

“Should I report it?”

Li Cunxu thought for a while and decided to report it!

If something happened to Pupil City, even a small pond would be affected by the fire at the city gates.

He was that small pond fish.

“Who should I report it to?”

“Report it to Grandpa. He's the only person I know who I can trust more. By the way, I also need to go to my sister's place. My sister's Eternal Contract is up, and she can have the evil persona absorb the Evil God's pollution.”
