Mysterious journey

pet market

Both sides of the road are filled with densely packed pet cages, rows of uneven heights, different sizes, and different colors. Most are light or white.

Some elegantly dressed ladies and aristocratic girls held white parasols and slowly watched and selected various pets.

Carriages stopped at the entrance of this street, and new guests got off one after another.

On one of the black carriages, a bald man slowly walked down. He had no hair, no beard, no eyebrows. His face was like a freshly carved white wax statue, with no hair at all, and was completely bare. It caused the passers-by around to cast curious glances.

The man handed the fare to the coachman and adjusted his white casual clothes.

"Sir, do you need a gauze? I only need five copper-wheel cloths." A child selling sunshade gauze approached and asked.

This man bought a gauze scarf and wrapped it around his head.

Start from the left and walk slowly along the pet walking street.

A man in gray clothes was holding a gray owl, and was loudly trying to sell two aristocratic ladies in an unfamiliar accent. The owl on the hand turns its head from time to time and seems to be in good spirits.

A fat man in front wearing a white gemstone hat patted the large iron cage next to him and loudly introduced the clouded leopard walking around inside. This lynx was restless due to the heat.

Further ahead, a circle of ladies and girls surrounded a small pet shop selling rabbits and squirrels, and bursts of chuckles could be heard from time to time.

Garen walked forward slowly, his eyes scanning various pet cages. I kept thinking about it in my heart.

"Silver totems cannot be stored in storage tools, they can only be left outside, and they need to be eaten and excreted. So can this kind of thing be able to silver humans?" Such an idea suddenly occurred to him.

With a calm expression on his face, Garen continued to look forward one by one.

Eagles, cheetahs, wild cats, hounds, pythons, spiders, etc., all kinds of pets can be found here.

Suddenly his steps stopped. Standing in front of a huge aquarium.

In the blue water tank, a huge white shark swam slowly.

"Guest, do you want to buy this great white shark? If you buy it now, you will get a good gift. A great white shark will come with a free breeding tank." A thin man with a fishy smell introduced enthusiastically.

"There are various other aquatic animals in my store here, including a lot of amphibians. You can take a look at whatever you want. Crocodiles, wolf fish, ornamental goldfish, black-headed shrimps, cylinder snails, jellyfish, as long as you want, we can I’ll catch you!”

"Oh?" Gallon said noncommittally, "I want to see the crocodile."

"Please come in." The thin man enthusiastically led Garen into the dark and damp shop. He had opened a shop here for so long. He originally thought that the ladies and young men would like some more exotic water-sounding pets, but he didn't expect that the business is still bleak until now. Now it's hard to meet someone who has the intention to buy, so naturally it's impossible to let him go.

Garen entered the shop. I saw a deep pit on the left side inside, with two alligators lying lazily in it. One crocodile opened its mouth wide, and several white birds jumped between its sharp teeth.

"In its true form, the crocodile's armor has very strong defense. If the silver is turned into a silver totem, I don't know how much the totem's light can be enhanced." Garen wanted to buy the crocodile just for the powerful armor. Even if he left it at home and raised it, With this, the light of the totem obtained is probably not comparable to that of ordinary creatures.

"I want a crocodile, how much does it cost?"

"Only 30,000, 30,000 silver wheel cloth, hehe." The thin man was overjoyed. He didn't expect that he could seal the deal on a pet as soon as he came in.

"Okay, they will send it to me at this address later." Gallon took out a pen and was about to write down the address of the hotel when he suddenly paused and said, "Wait a minute, I will come back to make a reservation later. This is the deposit."

Galen took out a thousand pieces of silver wheel cloth and gave it to the thin man, then left his name and made an appointment to come back later.

After leaving the aquatic pet shop, Garen continued to walk forward and look slowly.

Soon, he settled on three desert monitor lizards from another pet shop. All three were large lizards with dark blue backs and a body length of more than one meter. The skin gives the feel of a rough cloth.

Garen pressed the skin of the monitor lizard, it was very hard.

These three desert monitor lizards only cost ten thousand galleons of silver wheel cloth. However, this creature is said to have a blood relationship with the legendary dragon chariot. Garen is quite interested in trying to see if he can evolve it into a similar biological totem.

Of course, everything must be based on satisfying the core totem first.

This blue-backed monitor lizard is good at digging holes, has agile movements, and has paralyzing venom glands. Very unfavorable for keeping pets. If you are not careful, it will burrow into a hole and escape, so the shop owner cannot afford to sell it at a high price. The price drops again and again. Unexpectedly, a customer, Galleon, likes this kind of creature so much. He was immediately overjoyed and sold a total of three monitor lizards to Garen.

Gallon then bought three more gray-feathered eagles. This small eagle is very fierce, and the female is particularly powerful. It can often fight with leopards in the northern highlands. It's also a very basic creature.

One alligator, three gray-feathered eagles, and three desert monitor lizards. There are seven in total, plus the snarling wolf and rabbit that are already there, there are eight. Gallon also intends to leave two slots open in case a better option becomes available.

These creatures cost him a total of seventy thousand silver wheel cloth.

He has now given up on customizing totems. Customized totems are indeed more suitable for totem masters than standard totems. The higher the fit, the easier it is to evolve. But he has special powers, so there is no need to use expensive methods like customizing totems.

After paying the deposit, Gallon walked against the flow of people toward the street entrance.

Looking at the leisurely aristocratic young masters and ladies passing by, they had no idea that a chaos was coming.

Most of these people are unaware of the existence of the Silver Lantern Master. They live in a woven world of disguise and naively believe that cavalry, archers, patrol guards, swordsmen, and musketeers are all part of war. But what they don't know is that what really determines all this is the battle between the totem masters and the silver lantern masters.

Totems cannot interfere in wars between mortals. This is a rule. But people with a little knowledge actually know the importance of totem masters. War and peace are in the hands of these few.

"General Wei Lan is leading nearly 100,000 men from Ennit's Third Army to set off this time. I don't know how long it will take to assess the war situation. My husband is working as a logistics officer." A noble lady held a little white rabbit on the back of her hand with a worried look on her face. Said. "I don't know if he can take care of himself alone."

"Don't worry, my brother-in-law is fine. He is such a big man. Sister, do you think this squirrel of mine is cute?" A red-haired girl beside her happily rubbed the little squirrel in her palm.

Garen passed by the two of them and heard a few words coming from them.

In the eyes of ordinary people, General Wei Lan set off with one hundred thousand soldiers, and his three legion commanders were brave and good at fighting.

But what really determines the war is not these 100,000 people, but the other thousands of totem masters. It’s just that they have been setting off for so long, and I don’t know the specific outcome.

The totem division's war is different from the war between mortals. The battlefields are all individually selected. Once a totem division loses, its commander will automatically declare surrender.

Totem masters generally do not massacre mortals, but this has led to many battles in which the few defeated the many and the weak defeated the strong. This is also the origin of many battles that were defeated due to the defeat of the Totem Division due to a disparity in military strength.

After gathering his thoughts, Garen hailed a carriage and headed towards the outer city.

He needed to find a house all to himself. Otherwise, it simply cannot accommodate so many silver totems.

Back at the hotel, Gallon packed his things and went directly to the nearby house rental and sales center.

In the center of the house, we chose a large courtyard located in the outer city. It has a large pool, rockery and lawn. It was very dilapidated, and the rent was calculated every two years, with a one-time payment of 20,000 silver wheels.

This is considered a very cheap price.

Garen doesn't have much money now. After adding up the bits and pieces, after buying pets, he still has less than 300,000 yuan of silver wheel cloth left. Under the guidance of the renter, we went to have a look at the yard. So I simply paid the two years' rent in one lump sum.

Garen then went to Pet Street and gave the new address to the pet shop owners.

He didn't plan to go to other pet markets. In fact, these were the only animals he could find. The rest were lions, tigers, bears and other beasts. He didn't care much about these common creatures. When it came to defense, lions and tigers were not as good as the crocodile's armor. The most important thing is that only one large carnivore is enough. Once more animals evolve, the amount of meat they eat every day will not be a simple amount.

When the war comes, it is impossible to have so much meat supply.

******************

Outside the Tietan city wall, on the sparsely populated side, there are some sparsely built courtyards.

One of the courtyards is surrounded by a gray fence. On the green grass inside, stands a mountain-shaped double-story building. The small building has a white background and black edges. It looks a bit dilapidated. There are withered yellow vines climbing up some parts of the windows.

A gust of wind blew by, causing the yellow leaves scattered on the grass to tumble.

Garen got off the carriage and stood in front of the fence of the courtyard.

He looked back at a similar courtyard opposite. There were some flowers and fruit trees planted in the courtyard, and a young woman was watering the flowers with a water drain.

The young woman also saw Garen opposite and gave him a friendly smile.

Garen smiled back.

He took out the key, opened the padlock on the fence, and walked into the yard he had just built.

Woof woof!

There was a sound of dogs barking from the yard opposite.

"Tere! Don't pee there! Do you hear me?" the woman opposite yelled. "Tell! Tell!!" She dropped the drain and chased a golden retriever dog behind the house.

Garen glanced over there, took out the key from his pocket, inserted it into the keyhole of the front door of the small building, and twisted it.

Click.

The door of the room opened with a creak, and a musty smell rushed towards him from inside.
