Translator: 549690339
Soon, eight pets came to a stop in front of Bai Qi. They all stood there obediently, waiting for Bai Qi to make his choice.
[Name]: Flame-tailed Fox
[Nature]: Fire Attribute
[Bloodline Level]: Low-level Lord
[Introduction]: It possesses a gorgeous exterior, capable of bewitching other creatures simply by standing there, but when angered, the flames on its tail are enough to incinerate all enemies.
[Name]: Netherworld Cat
[Nature]: Soul Race
[Bloodline Level]: Low-level Lord
[Introduction]: This ghost cat, after becoming an undead, moves even more gracefully. It can often kill a few people unexpectedly, making it highly proficient in surprise attacks.
[Name]: Fire Demon Lizard
[Nature]: Fire Attribute
[Bloodline Level]: Mid-Level Lord
[Introduction]: Skilled at camouflage and has strong physical defense. It also possesses a rapid regenerative ability. Its main form of attack is toxin, causing those poisoned to quickly lose control of their bodies. In addition to toxins, they can also spew lava.
[Name]: Gale Wing
[Nature]: Flying System
[Bloodline Level]: Low-level Lord
[Introduction]: A Griffin that harnesses strong winds and soars through the sky. It has an extremely fast flight speed and, though adept at controlling winds, its melee abilities are also quite impressive.
[Name]: Four-winged Dragon Griffin
[Nature]: Flying System
[Bloodline Level]: Mid-Level Lord
[Introduction]: A dragon-blooded race whose dragon ancestry lends it stronger defenses and stamina. It specializes in wearing down the enemy’s strength and delivering the killing blow.
[Name]: Ice Demon Ape
[Nature]: Ice Clan
[Bloodline Level]: Mid-Level Lord
[Introduction]: A primate life form from extremely cold regions, it possesses a strong ice control ability and excels in close combat using weapons made from ice.
[Name]: Ancestral Beast
[Nature]: None
[Bloodline Level]: Low-level Lord
[Introduction]: One of the most diversified creatures in its future evolution forms within the Federation. But in its original state, it has relatively simple attacks and struggles to survive in the wild.
[Name]: Tree of Life
[Nature]: Plant Attribute
[Bloodline Level]: High-Grade Lord
[Introduction]: A being with strong vitality, it usually lives deep within the forest, where no ferocious beast would harm it.
Bai Qi looked at the profiles of the eight pets provided by Old Lady Fan and suddenly found himself at a loss.
With eight lord-level creatures to choose from, including the high-grade lord Tree of Life, Bai Qi, who had originally thought he could just casually pick one and then use the Evolution Egg, suddenly felt overwhelmed.
Having too many choices wasn’t a good thing after all.
Old Lady Fan appeared surprised that Bai Qi had so many pets to choose from. Her original irritation seemed to fade away as she said, “My dear Qin, you first registered an Undead creature, and later changed it to an Arctic Ice Wolf. Just what type of Beast Master are you? Summon your pet and let Granny help you choose.”
“Uh, I think I can’t really be classified.”
Bai Qi scratched his head awkwardly and summoned all three of his pets.
Crunch Crunch.
(Boss, are these the enemies?)
As expected, Alpha was the most combative one among the three pets. The first thing it did upon arrival was to enter its battle stance.
Awo?!
(Human, you were captured by the ferocious beasts, this old lady looks so terrifying!
Gulp Gulp?
(Boss, is it time for food?)
“Skeleton, Arctic Ice Wolf, Slime? How did you manage to train them like this?” Old Lady Fan, being an expert nurturer, saw through the true forms of the three pets at once and begun to hold Bai Qi in higher esteem.
“It was a sheer coincidence.”
Bai Qi scratched his head and pointed at the eight lord-level creatures next to him, saying, “Why don’t you give me some advice, Old Lady Fan?”
Since Old Lady Fan seemed to have lived many years, if she noticed anything about the Evolution Egg, it would be hard for him to explain.
Upon hearing this, Old Lady Fan didn’t think much and asked, “You haven’t specialized in one system, so the choices are wider. Do you have any idea?” Upon hearing this, Bai Qi smacked his lips and said, “I originally did, but now I am dazzled and lost.”
Old Lady Fan nodded, her silvery eyes swept over the Alpha’s three pets, saying, “According to your human habits, a team generally needs at least a strong attacker, defender, supporter, and escape artist.”
“You already have the first two, but you are missing an escape artist and
supporter.”
Old Lady Fan paused and said, “The follow-up evolution of the Flame Tail Fox is quite powerful, and there are even species close to being myths in the Ferocious Beast Tribe. However, since you already have a strong attacker, it would be wasteful to focus resources on another, which is not advisable.
“As for the Netherworld Cat and the Fire Demon Lizard, they are not as good as
the Flame Tail Fox.”
Upon hearing Old Lady Fan’s words, the Flame Tail Fox and the other two pets lowered their heads in slight dejection. However, they quickly recovered, nodded at Old Lady Fan as a form of salute, and then left.
As expected of legendary creatures, their intimidation factor is significant. “The Gale Wing and the Four-winged Dragon Griffin are both flying creatures. The Gale Wing is excellent for escape, but the Four-winged Dragon Griffin has a higher limit. If you choose a flying creature, I recommend the Four-winged Dragon Griffin.”
Bai Qi nodded. No matter where, the potential of the Dragon-Blood species far exceeded ordinary pets. Indeed, he was somewhat tempted.
However, the later ones also seemed excellent.
“The Ice Demon Ape is a Mid-Level Lord, performing well in control and output, and its upper limit is not low. It seems that the main pet of the Combat System Titled Legendary among your humans is an evolved form of the Ice Demon Ape.”
Titled Legendary of the Combat System?
Bai Qi’s eyes sparkled. With such a high limit, wouldn’t he just need to casually train it, and it would inevitably become a legendary creature?
“However, I don’t recommend that you choose the Ice Demon Ape.
Old Lady Fan glanced at Alpha, saying, “You already have a pretty strong Ice Clan Undead. Cultivating another Ice Clan creature won’t benefit you much. Also, these two chaps seem to not get along too well.”
Bai Qi was taken aback and realized Alpha and the Ice Demon Ape were already confronting each other. If it wasn’t for Old Lady Fan and himself being present, they probably would have already started fighting.
Regardless of how strong the Ice Demon Ape was, it couldn’t be as vital to him as his own Alpha. Plus, the future of Alpha might not necessarily be worse.
“As for the Ancestral Beast and the Tree of Life, you should have heard of their reputations. I don’t need to say too much, do I?”
Bai Qi nodded continuously. The Tree of Life was the most worthwhile to cultivate among plant attribute creatures. It possessed a robust vitality, could heal most wounds of the pets, and could even lengthen a Beast Master’s lifespan.
It was known that pets would provide feedback to their Beast Masters. For instance, Alpha enhanced Bai Qi’s speed, the Husky improved Bai Qi’s spirit power (although Bai Qi didn’t think it was necessary), and Gamma enhanced his physical constitution.
If Bai Qi contracted with the Tree of Life, if nothing else, at least extending his life by a decade or so wasn’t a problem.
Bai Qi was all too familiar with the fame of the Ancestral Beast.
The Thunder Bird, the Ice Fish, the Flame Beast…
All these famous high-grade Lords and even King-level creatures evolved from the Ancestral Beast, which was how the Ancestral Beast got its name.
In other words, if he chose the Ancestral Beast, he would have an abundance of choices.
The Four-winged Dragon Griffin was a flying creature and would fulfil his long-cherished wish.
The Tree of Life was a super supplement. After contracting it, he wouldn’t need to worry about being drained by the Evolution Egg.
The Ancestral Beast had the highest potential for future development.
It was still such a headache…
Bai Qi rubbed his head somewhat helplessly. However, Old Lady Fan next to him suddenly spoke, “Although it’s not very fair to this child, I suggest you choose between the Four-winged Dragon Griffin and the Tree of Life.
“Why? Is this Ancestral Beast already reserved by someone?”
Bai Qi was startled when he heard that and looked at the Ancestral Beast curiously.
“In fact, it has been reserved many times before. However, it was always returned.”
“Can it not evolve?”
Bai Qi quickly grasped the key point. Though the Ancestral Beast was Lordlevel, it didn’t possess strong combat power in its initial state. It was purely a creature with high race value due to its potential to evolve.
If it couldn’t evolve, the value of the Ancestral Beast would significantly decrease.
“It’s not that it can’t evolve, but rather that it will devolve.
Old Lady Fan sighed and said, “Compared to others of its kind, this little fellow evolves more easily. It evolves almost as soon as it comes into contact with energy of different attributes.”
As she said this, Old Lady Fan gave the Tree of Life a look. It immediately understood and infused a strand of Life Force into the Ancestral Beast. The Ancestral Beast immediately radiated dazzling Evolution Light.
Shortly after, the Evolution Light disappeared. The appearance of the Ancestral Beast had significantly changed.
[Name]: Wood Spirit
[Nature]: Plant Attribute
[Bloodline Level]: Mid-Level Lord
[introduction]: A spirit born in the forest, it is often active around places with vitality such as the Tree of Life. It has a gentle nature and dislikes fighting. Damn, the speed of this evolution is even faster than the Evolution Egg! Bai Qi watched in astonishment as the Ancestral Beast, which had greatly changed its appearance right before him. Before he had a chance to comment, the Wood Spirit radiated a burst of dark red light, its body gradually twisted and changed, and astonishingly reverted to the original form of the Ancestral Beast. After experiencing one evolution and one devolution, the state of the Ancestral Beast was clearly not good, but it seemed to have become accustomed to this state. Ignoring the Tree of Life’s kind intention to heal it, it staggered wanting to leave.
This creature has quite the character!
“You see, this little guy can evolve, but it can hardly maintain the evolution for even a second. That’s why previous Beast Masters who chose him all ended up returning him.”
Old Lady Fan sighed and said, “So have you made your choice? Is it the Tree of Life or the Four-winged Dragon Griffin?”
“I choose the Ancestral Beast!”
“Hmm, not bad, your choice is… wait! What did you say you chose?
Old Lady Fan suddenly looked at Bai Qi and asked, “Could you say that again? Bai Qi pointed at the Ancestral Beast and declared solemnly, “I choose the Ancestral Beast!”
The Four-winged Dragon Griffin was good, but besides being dragon-blooded, it didn’t attract Bai Qi much. The Tree of Life was indeed good, but he now had Nicholas and the Green Dragon Scales. He didn’t need the supplements as much now.
On the other hand, the Ancestral Beast, which evolves and then devolves, was an unbeatable talent!
As long as he could solve the problem of the short duration of evolution, if he contracted the Ancestral Beast, wasn’t it equivalent to contracting countless kinds of pets?
This was simply a blessing for people having trouble deciding!
If he had known this earlier, he wouldn’t have hurriedly contracted that stupid dog. If he had contracted the Ancestral Beast sooner, wouldn’t he have had everything?
Oh no?
(Human, is it appropriate to think like this in front of me?)
