Beastmaster: I don’t want to be a breeder!
#166 - Dragon Slime and Atavism
Li Cunxu said, "This matter is simple. Just say 'no'. If anyone tries to force you to contract with a pet you don't like, just refuse."
Ao Meng was a dual-legendary talent holder. If she refused, no one could do anything to her.
Ao Meng hesitated and stammered, "But... but... my father will scold me."
Li Cunxu frowned slightly. Ao Meng craved love because she lacked it, but from her description, her father didn't love her at all. No matter what she did, no matter how well she did it, she wouldn't receive her father's love.
Should he advise her to be rational and not care about her father who didn't love her?
But would it be useful to say that?
Don't advise others to be kind unless you have experienced their suffering.
Li Cunxu pondered for a moment and came up with an idea.
"I have a good solution that will prevent your father from scolding you."
Ao Meng raised her lowered head and looked at him with anticipation.
Li Cunxu said softly, "Tell the principal about your troubles. The principal will help you solve them."
When in doubt, find the principal.
"Dragon-attribute Slimes, although I don't know where to find them, I can mutate a Dragon-attribute Slime for you."
To prove that he wasn't lying, Li Cunxu took Ao Meng to his residence and showed her the mutated Slimes: Winged Slime, Trash Slime, Golden Slime...
Li Cunxu gave Ao Meng a few Winged Slimes.
"That's great. Please mutate a Dragon-attribute Slime for me. As for the reward, is 3,000 credits enough?"
Ao Meng took out almost all the credits she had earned from being ranked first on the freshman list.
Li Cunxu was initially surprised. A Dragon-attribute Slime wasn't worth 3,000 credits. He was about to refuse, but he was a little reluctant. He wanted the Star Spirit worth 10,000 credits and was very short on credits.
Suddenly, an idea popped into his head. It seemed that he could earn these credits.
"Enough, more than enough. 3,000 credits even exceeds it by a lot. In that case, to match the reward you gave me, I can't mutate an ordinary Dragon-attribute Slime for you. I have to mutate a very rare Dragon-attribute Slime."
Ao Meng tilted her head in confusion. "Are Dragon-attribute Slimes different from each other?"
Li Cunxu said, "Of course they are different. Think about it, can a Dragon-attribute Slime mutated from Earthworm Dragon blood be the same as a Dragon-attribute Slime mutated from Holy Lotus Armored Dragon blood?"
"They're not the same."
"Your talent is Dragon Blood Ancestral Return, which can allow the bloodline of any Dragon Blood creature to return to its ancestors. If you use the blood of extinct Dragons to mutate a Dragon-attribute Slime, wouldn't it be possible to revive the extinct Dragons under the influence of your Dragon Blood Ancestral Return talent?"
Li Cunxu said excitedly.
Using the Dragon Blood Ancestral Return talent to revive extinct Dragons in history was something that many people were doing, but few succeeded.
Their idea was to transplant the Dragon blood of extinct Dragons into Dragon pets, and then have Ao Meng contract with them, using Dragon Blood Ancestral Return to purify the bloodline and evolve the Dragon pet back into an extinct Dragon.
The idea was feasible, but they were stuck on the Dragon blood transplantation step.
When transplanting Dragon blood, they would definitely transplant the blood of Dragons that had made a great name for themselves in history. What would be the point of reviving a relatively useless Dragon? To admire and visit it in a pet park?
The bloodline genes of these Dragons were often very powerful, and the Dragon pets that received the transplant couldn't withstand it and died instantly.
The problem of not being able to withstand the power of the bloodline genes and dying instantly also existed in the mutated Dragon-attribute Slimes, but it wasn't a big problem.
Because there were so many Slimes, there were unlimited opportunities for trial and error.
If a Slime absorbed Dragon blood and didn't mutate successfully, then they would try with a million Slimes, a billion Slimes...
There would always be a Slime that could absorb Dragon blood and mutate successfully.
Those who transplanted bloodlines didn't have so many opportunities for trial and error.
To transplant a bloodline, you had to have a Dragon pet with Dragon blood to transplant it into, as their compatibility was the best.
Failure to transplant a bloodline would cause the Dragon pet receiving the transplant to die.
Too many Dragon pets dying would lead to a problem: attracting the Dragon Resentment Curse.
At the end of the Dragon Clan era, when the number of Dragons was about to decline, whether they were Evil Dragons or Good Dragons, there weren't many left. To protect the last trace of the Dragon Clan's bloodline in the world from being deliberately erased by humans, the Holy Dragon Mother mobilized all the resentment after the death of Dragons in the world and cast a Dragon Resentment Curse to protect the Dragon Clan.
Those who slaughtered the Dragon Clan would be haunted by Dragon Resentment.
Those who bore the Dragon Resentment Curse would die in misfortune.
And the more Dragons they slaughtered, the stronger the Dragon Resentment Curse would be, and the stronger the bad luck they would suffer.
The Dragon Resentment Curse was even more terrifying than the Evil Dragon Curse.
The Evil Dragon Curse was only formed by using the resentment of the Evil Dragon's death.
The Dragon Resentment Curse was formed by using the resentment of all the Dragons in the world who had died.
The Dragon Resentment Curse could kill people, and Dragons could also kill people.
Some Dragons who smelled the Dragon Resentment Curse would come to hunt down those who bore the Dragon Resentment Curse.
Li Cunxu said to Ao Meng, "I need you to provide the blood of Dragons who made a great name for themselves in history and have already become extinct."
Ao Meng said, "But I don't have it. I can't provide it."
"It doesn't matter. Your family behind you can provide it."
The Overlord Body Ao family, as a Dragon Blood family with a rich foundation, must have the Dragon blood of such Dragons in their family treasury.
Thinking that Ao Meng didn't want to owe favors to the Ao family who forcefully arranged for her to contract with a pet.
Li Cunxu said, "Don't rush to ask your family about the Dragon blood. Anyway, we're going to the principal's office. I'll tell the principal my idea, and the principal may provide this kind of Dragon blood."
Compared to the Ao family's treasury, the Alliance's treasury had more extinct Dragon blood.
Li Cunxu led Ao Meng to the principal's office.
As it happened, the principal was in the office.
"Come in."
Hearing the knock, the principal put down the pen in his hand and looked towards the door.
The principal's hair was as white as frost. The years had etched faint marks on his temples, but his deep eyes revealed a vigorous spirit. His gaze was like a torch, as if he could see through the secrets deep in people's hearts. His eyes revealed a light of wisdom, both kind and firm, like a seasoned helmsman who had experienced the vicissitudes of life and mastered the ocean of knowledge.
"May I ask what business you two young friends have with me?"
Ao Meng sobbed as she recounted the troubles in her heart. The principal's approachable attitude and kind voice made Ao Meng put down her guard and open her heart, telling him all her troubles.
After saying what was pent up in her heart, Ao Meng felt much better, and then her small face turned slightly red. What was wrong with her today? She had been telling her troubles to two strange men in a row.
Ao Meng told the principal because of the principal's kindness and trustworthy aura.
She told Li Cunxu purely because of the mischief of the Spirit of Peach Blossom Tribulation.
