Unorthodox Beast Control

Chapter 165 The mysterious velvet bird

"The secret of evolution..."

Xu Ran's expression froze slightly, "Can you tell me?"

He really didn't intend to ask for money, but Velvet Bird offered to use this in exchange, and he was really interested.

At the same time, a strange feeling couldn't help but emerge in Xu Ran's mind.

In the previous cleaning, Velvet Bird had already shown that he had a completely different conversation style from other wandering pets, and now he mentioned the secret of evolution.

This doesn't seem to be something a stray pet should know, right?

Forget it, you might as well listen to it first.

Velvet Bird looked around, then lowered his voice.

"Chirp~" (The leader race needs a resource called the Flower of Transcendence to evolve into a king race. If not, the success rate will be much lower.)

Um?

Xu Ran was really surprised this time.

He has verified the help of the Flower of Transcendence in evolution through the evolutionary routes of three pet beasts, and Velvet Bird said there is no problem.

This also proves that this little guy really knows something about evolution.

Then here comes the problem.

What is the origin of this "stray pet" that the cat boss met just two days ago?

"Chirp?" (Is this secret enough?)

Seeing Xu Ran's surprised expression, Velvet Bird raised its head proudly.

"That's enough." Xu Ran nodded quickly, and then asked, "Velvet Bird, can you tell me where you are from and why you know this?"

Velvet Bird's proud look froze on her face.

Oops, that's sloppy!

No, you can’t reveal your true identity yet!

A flash of thought flashed in Velvet Bird's eyes, and he had a countermeasure the next moment.

Tears welled up in its big sea-blue eyes. While wiping them with its small wings, it spoke with tears and sobs.

"Chirp~" (I lost my parents when I was a child, was abandoned outside the city, almost died there, and finally returned to the city. These are all things I heard outside the city...)——

"Sneeze!!!"

A slightly weird sneeze echoed for a long time in a lush forest. The terrifying aura deep in the forest leaked out, causing all the Transcendent creatures living on the outskirts of the forest to shrink.

"唳~"

You continue.

Deep in the forest, a huge bird with white wings tinged with a hint of blue-purple and a wingspan of thirty meters away slowly regained its momentum and looked at its subordinates who were also shivering below.

The subordinate calmed down and continued to report.

"Ouch~"

King, the twelve princesses have not been found yet.

After saying that, it pressed its head firmly against the ground, not daring to raise its head for even a moment.

The twelfth princess is the king's favorite young daughter, and it is said that she is also extremely talented.

Now that the twelve princesses are missing, one can imagine the king's anger.

I just hope that I can leave intact after reporting.

Above where it couldn't see, a strange flash appeared in the giant bird's eyes.

After a moment of silence, it slowly spoke.

"唳~"

Then send people to look for it.

Listening to the king's calm voice, the subordinate Transcendent creatures were startled at first, and then felt ecstatic with relief.

Wang actually did not hold himself accountable!

Even though his beloved daughter is missing, he is still so calm. The king is indeed the most resourceful among the six kings.

It nodded its head suddenly, turned around and left without saying a word, with determination in its eyes.

This time, it will definitely find the twelve princesses for the king!

Watching his subordinates leave, the giant bird folded its wings and slowly landed on the tree trunk.

Its eyes were full of pain and sorrow, and it looked faintly in the direction of Qingzhou City.

I have lost my parents since I was a child...

The little cotton-padded jacket is leaking! ——

"Is that so..."

After listening to the velvet bird crying and telling her tragic experience, Xu Ran couldn't help but sigh.

It seems that I have misunderstood, this is also a poor little guy.

Being abandoned outside the city by humans, it's no wonder that he would be resistant to the contracted beastmaster.

Transcendent creatures outside the city can evolve themselves into beings like Beast King and Beast Emperor. They must have an understanding of evolution, and they may understand it better than humans. It is not surprising to know about the Flower of Transcendence.

Velvet Finch overheard some, which made perfect sense.

"It doesn't matter, everything is over." Xu Ran touched Velvet Bird's head and said with emotion, "Let's live here from now on."

Thinking on the bright side, Velvet Bird can still translate for him after staying here.

It can come in handy when you encounter pets that cannot communicate.

Great!

Velvet Bird cheered in her heart and couldn't help but sigh that her acting skills were getting better and better.

It pretended to wipe away the tears and blinked its two big eyes, showing an innocent expression.

After entering a human city and observing it for a few days, it also realized that it was a bit difficult to survive in a human city on its own without getting into trouble.

Food and accommodation are provided, which solves a big problem for it.

"I'll take you to the foster care area later and settle you down." Without doubting his presence, Xu Ran turned to look at the cat boss and said, "Then how are you going to live next? You need my help. What?"

"Meow~"

No.

The cat boss shook his head and briefly explained his plan.

To put it simply, it plans to join a hunting team in Qingzhou City and become one of them. Following the hunting team, it will go out of the city from time to time to eliminate wild Transcendent creatures.

As a leader-level pet, the cat boss is very powerful. Now that there are no stray pets in need of help, it wastes its strength wandering around the city all day long.

After understanding the words of the cat boss through Velvet Bird's translation, Xu Ran's expression gradually became weird.

After getting along with the cat boss for a long time, he felt more and more that the big guy in front of him didn't look like a pet animal, but more like a human being.

If you want to join the hunting team...

"How about... let me introduce you to one?" Xu Ran asked tentatively.

"Meow?"

The cat boss blinked, then nodded quickly.

It is worried about which hunting team to join.

After all, I have never dealt with a hunting team before.

"Wait for me." Xu Ran silently picked up the phone and dialed Zhang Yun.

"Hey, Captain Zhang, do you need anyone in your tiger hunting team... Ah no, do you need a beast, a leader-level angry fighting cat... Oh, okay, come here."

On the other side, Zhang Yun, who was slurping his noodles at the stall downstairs at home, silently put down his chopsticks and laughed out loud in the astonished gazes of the diners around him.

"If you don't want to eat, please pay!"

After a while, Xu Ran couldn't help but smile as he watched Zhang Yun and the cat boss leave.

He is familiar with the members of the Tiger Hunting Team, and they must be able to get along well with the cat boss.

And with the leader of the Cat Boss, the tiger hunting team is a bit stronger and less likely to encounter danger.

In this way, Liu Jinli is also safe, which will make it easier for him to smoothly enjoy the energy of Jinli in the future.

Kill multiple birds with one stone.

"Let's go, I'll take you downstairs to have a look." Xu Ran took Velvet Bird through the back door towards the underground passage.

"Chirp?" (Is my place down here?)

The Velvet Finch looked around curiously, and when it reached the foster care area, its eyes widened suddenly.

"Chirp!" (So big!)

"This area will be yours from now on."

Xu Ran quickly divided the area for the velvet finch and helped it adjust it to a living area suitable for the super power system and consistent with its living habits.

Seeing Velvet Bird's satisfied expression, Xu Ran nodded, "Is there anything else you need?"

"Chirp?" (Can I leave the store and go shopping outside?)

There was a look of satisfaction and expectation in Velvet Bird's eyes.

"Of course." Xu Ran nodded, "When you want to go out, just go up the passage you just came down. I won't restrict your movements, but..."

His voice paused, "Remember to come back in time for dinner."

"Chirp!" (Okay!)

Velvet Bird's eyes became even more excited.

Food and accommodation are included, and you can also go out and get familiar with human cities.

Such a life is so wonderful!

Beast realm? Can't go back a bit!

I won’t go out today.

Velvet Finch looked around at the living areas of other foster residents.

It needs to take a good stroll here! ——

After settling the Velvet Bird, Xu Ran stretched and returned to the store.

To his surprise, there were already new customers waiting in the store.

Looking at the back, it seems to be a young man.

At this moment, he was facing the price list and didn't know what he was thinking.

"Hello." Looking at the new face he had never seen before, Xu Ran quickly smiled and walked forward quickly, "How can I help you?"

"I heard from my friends that your store has the best cleaning effect in the entire Qingzhou City, right?" The young man turned to look at Xu Ran, with a bit of solemnity and caution on his face.

"It's best not to take it." Xu Ran said modestly, and then paused slightly, "But there has never been a customer who is dissatisfied with the care in our store."

"That's good." The young man nodded, then hesitated for a moment, and then asked slowly, "I would like to ask, do you take care of any pet animals here?"

"All pet beasts that do not exceed super large size and whose growth level does not exceed the king level can be accepted." Xu Ran listened to the young man's words with a little curiosity in his eyes, "Is there anything special about the pet beast you want to care for? ?”

"Yes..." The young man nodded, "It meets the requirements of body size and growth level, but..."

The young man's eyes suddenly dimmed a bit, "It's dying."

"Then you should go find a place with healing capabilities." Xu Ran's eyes became more serious, "There is no way to treat the injuries of pet beasts."

"No, Huohuo is not injured." The young man shook his head slightly, "It just came to the end of its lifespan."

"The end of life?" A look of astonishment appeared on Xu Ran's face.

The lifespan of a Transcendent creature is not short.

Depending on the species, their lifespans are different, but they are all longer than ordinary creatures, and will continue to grow as their growth levels increase.

In this era, the reason for the death of most Transcendent creatures is that serious injuries have not been healed, or the injuries have been accumulated for many years and cannot be treated. Too few of them die of a normal life.

"Can I ask, what is the specific situation of the pet beast called Huohuo?" Xu Ran couldn't help but ask.

"OK."

The young man nodded, pondered for a moment as if he was organizing his words, and then slowly spoke.

"Huo Huo has been very old since I was born."

"My father told me the story about it."

"He was my grandfather's pet dog many, many years ago."

Grandpa Nose…

Xu Ran hissed.

My father's ancestor, Zeng Gao Tianlie, was too far away from his nose. This has to be traced back hundreds of years.

No wonder life span comes to an end.

"Later, Huohuo mutated unexpectedly and became a Transcendent creature. My grandpa Nose did not have the talent to control beasts." There was a hint of memory in the young man's eyes.

"Grandfather Nose thought about letting him make a contract with his friend, but Huohuo chose Grandfather Nose. Even if he couldn't become his pet, he would never leave him."

"Because there is no restriction from the beast control contract, Huo Huo breaks through to the leader level without encountering any restrictions. Although my grandfather is not a beast control master, because of Huo Huo's presence, elite level beast control masters do not dare to offend him. he."

"Later, Grandpa Nose passed away." The young man sighed, "Huohuo didn't eat or drink for half a month, and then he gradually accepted this reality."

"Since then, it has stayed in our family, guarding Grandpa Nose's descendants all the way to my generation."

"Grandpa Nose's descendants have produced many beast masters, and my father is even a commander-level beast master."

"But everyone in our family respects Huohuo and treats him as an elder."

"Now its lifespan is coming to an end. We have tried many ways to extend its lifespan, but none of them have worked. In its current state, there is no hope of trying to evolve."

"Transcendent creatures have premonitions when their lifespan is approaching. Huohuo once told us that it will leave in a week."

"We no longer need it to protect our home, and it can rest assured."

The young man shook his head slightly, "So I want to at least make it more decent before it leaves this world."

Xu Ran's expression gradually became solemn, "I see, I understand."

"Well, that's probably the case, so Boss Xu, can you perform such care?" The young man raised his head and looked at Xu Ran expectantly.

"Yes!" Xu Ran nodded without hesitation, "Of course."

“Not only do I accept it, but I don’t charge any money.”

"Ah?" The young man blinked, "It doesn't have to be like this, our family is quite rich, and we can afford a cleaning service..."

"No, this is my intention." Xu Ran shook his head.

He was deeply touched by the story of the pet dog named Huohuo guarding a family for nine generations.

He thought he was not a philanthropic person, but after hearing the other party's story, he also wanted to do his part and provide free care for Huo Huo when his life span came to an end.

"This..." The young man looked at Xu Ran and seemed to understand Xu Ran's thoughts from his eyes. There was a moved look in his eyes. He took a step back and bowed slightly.

"Boss Xu, thank you so much."

"It should be." Xu Ran chuckled, "After seven days, right? Do you need me to come and clean you?"

"No need." The young man shook his head, "Even though he is old, Huohuo is still a commanding beast. He can move on his own, which is what he means."

Xu Ran understands.

Even at the last moment of your life, you are not willing to show your vulnerable side...

He wanted to see the pet beast called Huohuo more and more.
