Chapter 60: D+ Grade Pet Physique!
“Who is this person?” Wang Ye’s mind was filled with question marks.
They were instantly killed?
If the other party was also a novice Beastmaster participating in the exploration of the relic, why would he kill him?
If he wasn’t, then who was he?
“Black clothes and a mask…” Wang Ye searched through his memories for a moment. He didn’t have much of an impression of seeing such a person on the square just now.
Since that was the case, the other party might have disguised himself after entering the relic.
But, why did he have to kill them?
“Could it be for the crimson flame phoenix’s soul fire? It shouldn’t be, right? There should be quite a lot of them. Besides, the other party has also cleared all five stages and will ultimately obtain the soul fire. There’s no need for him to kill me for it… Also, what the hell? A level 3 pet? Can a level 3 pet even enter the Yihuang Forest?” Cold sweat trickled down Wang Ye’s forehead.
Fortunately, he had sensed the lurking danger ahead and had simulated in advance. Otherwise, he would have died under fishy circumstances.
“Could it be that the other party had put on a disguise? And it’s because of this that the difficulty of the stages has increased?” Wang Ye frowned slightly and had some guesses in his heart.
If the other party could evade the rounds of inspections outside, it meant that the other party’s background was not simple.
“Could this mysterious man in black have something to do with the dark fog eruption in Anping County?” Wang Ye had a thought.
He carefully read the logs of the reality simulation.
“The fifth stage is a sea of flames, which is obviously very difficult for both pet and Beastmaster to cross. With my body’s strength, I still need Xiao Jiu to protect me, which is why both Xiao Jiu and I were seriously injured after that. F*ck, so I’m the one holding Xiao Jiu back?” Wang Ye glanced at Xiao Jiu.
“Chirp…” Xiao Jiu looked at Wang Ye as if saying “What do you think?”
“…” Wang Ye.
He took some pills to recover his spiritual power and began to ponder.
It seemed that he had to improve himself.
If he had Xiao Jiu’s physique, it shouldn’t be a problem for him to cross the sea of flames alone.
“I still have two more chances to run the reality simulation. I must save one for Xiao Jiu to evolve. Only then can I see if I can escape from the dark fog eruption in Anping County.”
Xiao Jiu’s Feather Coat wasn’t of a high enough realm yet, being still a little short of evolving. So, the reality simulation couldn’t simulate Xiao Jiu’s evolution just yet.
After all, the cheat didn’t exist in the reality simulation, so Xiao Jiu couldn’t possibly reach the peak mastery realm for Feather Coat in just a few days, let alone evolve.
“I can still run it once.”
If the simulation time was too short, there would be no reward.
“Since that’s the case, I’ll choose to quit from the assessment in the simulation this time… I should try my best to live a little longer for a few more years, to form a deeper relationship with Xiao Jiu and get the reward.”
When he was almost done with taking his pills, his spiritual power also recovered.
Wang Ye chose to continue simulating with Xiao Jiu and did not enter the fifth stage just yet.
[The reality simulation begins, loading information…]
[You chose to withdraw from the relic. After doing so, everyone was still incomparably shocked that you have managed to clear the fourth stage, so you obtained rich rewards. ]
[Sometime later, the two of you guys learned a young prodigy from Qixing City, Tang Quan, had intentionally hidden his strength and snuck into the Yihuang Forest for the meeting this time, and had successfully obtained the soul fire. Unfortunately, due to the other party’s powerful background, the authorities of Yaoguang City didn’t dare to say anything. ]
[On that day, you and your Beastmaster chose to temporarily stay in Yaoguang City. That night, your Beastmaster planned to tell Lin Rou about the upcoming dark fog incident in Anping County. He also used his Deep Memory talent as a pretense to make the other party believe in him.]
[The next day, a mysterious woman who claimed to be from a related department came looking for you and confirmed that everything your Beastmaster said was true. The dark fog was indeed going to erupt in Anping County, but unfortunately, after searching for a month, they still weren’t able to find the source.]
[Then, you learned that because of what had happened with Lin Lei, the higher-ups had dispatched people from the relevant departments to investigate the matter. But within a month, they only found out that the dark fog would erupt. Having told Lin Rou about the soon-to-come dark fog eruption in Anping County, your Beastmaster was thus discovered by them, which is why the lady came asking about it.]
[A few days later, the dark fog still erupted in Anping County… Even though preparations had been made in advance, the effects didn’t seem to be ideal. All of the members of Anping County’s Investigation Corps died, including Commander Lin Rou. Due to your Beastmaster’s talent being special, he was valued by a certain department that recruited him.]
[A few months later, because you and your Beastmaster had a serious problem with improving, said department broke off their contractual relationship with your Beastmaster, who later joined another Investigation Corps and became an ordinary investigator.]
[A few years later, you became a level 4 pet. During one of your practice sessions, you had an epiphany, and Feather Coat finally reached the peak mastery realm. As a result, you finally completed your first evolution and gained quite a bit of potential. However, at this moment, Xinghai Province had already become a dark fog battlefield. Having failed to do what he promised, your Beastmaster was depressed.]
[Ten years later, due to the limited resources and the unknown route of evolution, your Beastmaster was unable to help you evolve again. You were stuck at one-star level six. With your decent strength, you guys managed to live a decent life. You enjoyed such a life.]
[A few years later, the two of you went to a large-scale secret realm to investigate. You were attacked by several high-level strange gods, and both of you died in battle. End.]
[The simulation has ended. The green sparrow has survived for 18 years in the reality simulation. It has reached one-star level 6, and its relationship with the Beastmaster has improved. You may retain one of the following three options.]
[Obtain a current skill of your pet.]
[Obtain a current characteristic of your pet.]
[Obtain one of the current six dimensions of your pet.]
…
This time, he had chosen a different path. He didn’t have too much interaction with Mingguang Enterprise, so he hadn’t provoked any factions which may be hostile towards him.
Still, the amount of information he had gained from this simulation was enormous.
Tang Quan, a prodigy from Tianquan City, had hidden his true strength to participate in the Hundred Birds Meeting and acquire the soul fire.
In that case, was he that mysterious person?
Putting that aside, he hadn’t expected that Lin Lei’s matter would attract the attention of a certain department… Didn’t that mean that said department probably wasn’t simple at all?
How had they been able to find out through Lin Lei that the dark fog was going to erupt in Anping County?
He was puzzled because, from the information available in the real world, Lin Lei’s matter had nothing to do with the dark fog eruption in Anping County.
Wang Ye himself had been able to predict the future through his simulations, which had led him to connect the dots. Thus, he had come to the conclusion that there was a connection between the two matters. But in truth, even he hadn’t been able to produce any evidence to prove that they were even related.
To think this relevant department could find out a part of the story.
“The scariest thing is that the f*cking department couldn’t find the source of the outbreak either… This means that even they were unable to find the high-level strange god hidden among the humans. Of course, it could also be that the time was too short, after all, they only investigated for a month.”
It was normal for his contract to have been terminated in the simulation. After all, without the cheat, all aspects of him and his pet were ordinary. Such a special department was unlikely to allow an ordinary person to stay on.
Fortunately… This time, he had survived longer.
Though, Xiao Jiu’s strength had increased very slowly.
It had somehow successfully completed its evolution to becoming a brilliant light sparrow and managed to lead a decent life for a decade in the simulation with its Emperor first-class potential.
Unfortunately, its evolution was too late. It was already at level 4 when it finally finished its tier 1 evolution, while the others were already at tier 2 evolution.
“To think that only after reaching level 4 did its skill reach the peak mastery realm…” Wang Ye secretly shook his head.
By relying on Xiao Jiu’s comprehension abilities, it took at least a few years for Feather Coat to reach the peak mastery realm.
It was simply ridiculous.
“Which one should I choose?” Wang Ye muttered.
He had quite a lot of choices, but he was not sure if he could use them.
“Since there’s a sea of flames ahead, wouldn’t it be better if I just choose a skill? If I choose Feather Coat… but I don’t have feathers. Even with a great success realm Feather Coat, without feathers, the structure will be different, and the effects will be greatly reduced. This is similar to Sky-dance from before. The effects that Xiao Jiu can unleash when it uses the skill are much stronger than when I use it. I’m a human after all, so I’m not very compatible with Xiao Jiu’s skills. Rather than having strong skills, it’s better to have a strong body myself. Choosing one of the six dimensions is definitely the way to go!”
[Six-dimension Growth: Strength (D+) , Constitution (D+), Agility (D+), Spiritual Resistance (D+), Energy (C), Soul (C-)]
After obtaining the Golden Flame Spiritual Bird characteristic last time, Xiao Jiu’s six dimensions had grown quite a bit.
However, they hadn’t changed much in the subsequent simulations either.
This was because it hadn’t evolved and its six dimensions had reached the upper limit. As such, no matter how high its growth process was in the simulations, it would be difficult to have any changes.
After all, evolutions increase the upper limit of a pet.
“I should choose D+ grade constitution. Previously, I chose D+ grade soul growth, so this time, D+ grade constitution growth. Now that both my soul growth and constitution growth have been improved, I shouldn’t feel weak anymore.”
After making his choice, Wang Ye’s body spasmed and he fell down.
“Chirp, chirp!” Seeing Wang Ye fall, Xiao Jiu immediately cried out in panic.
At this moment, Wang Ye only felt as if his entire body was being torn apart. A torrent of energy appeared in his body, gushing into his limbs, bones, and internal organs!
It was extremely uncomfortable!
Countless impurities began to be expelled from his body.
After a full few hours, Wang Ye, who was now covered in pitch-black impurities, barely managed to stand up.
Hungry, he was very hungry.
However, he could feel that his entire body was now filled with strength!
Wang Ye washed away the black impurities that had already condensed into scabs, revealing skin that was as tender as a newborn baby.
Xiao Jiu, who had been standing guard at the side, was lying on its stomach and sleeping, drooling.
“This little heartless brat, sleeping just like that,” Wang Ye glanced at Xiao Jiu in annoyance, then changed into a new set of clothes. He tightly clenched his hands as he got used to his unprecedentedly powerful body!
He truly didn’t know what the concept of a D+ grade constitution on a pet meant before this, but now he knew.
It was too freaking terrifying!
If he were back on Earth and was given time to grow and train, his constitution would at least be comparable to Captain America’s.
“I finally feel like I’m not a weakling anymore!” Wang Ye was overwhelmed with emotions.
Normally, only Beastmasters with talents of the Noumenon Talent Sequence could be comparable to pets in terms of physical fitness.
As for those with talents of other talent sequences, they were usually no match for their pets in terms of physical fitness.
He never thought that he would one day be able to obtain the physical fitness of a pet.
Wang Ye patted Xiao Jiu lightly, wanting to wake it up.
Unexpectedly, he hadn’t gotten used to his current constitution, such that although his strength hadn’t increased by much, it was still far stronger than before.
As a result, he sent the sleeping Xiao Jiu flying with a slap.
“…” Xiao Jiu.
Who was it?
An enemy had come!
Xiao Jiu immediately flew, then saw its Beastmaster…
He seemed somehow different now.
“Let’s go! To the fifth stage!” Wang Ye said with lofty sentiments, “Let’s go meet Tang Quan!”
Xiao Jiu exhaled, immediately wiping its saliva with its wing, and cried out loudly, “Chirp!”
Charge!
