==================

Lana narrowed his eyes slightly: "This kind of ability is rare."

As soon as these words were spoken, the little frog suddenly began to struggle.

At the same time, Aibei stopped and looked at Lanner's hand in confusion: "Why are you pulling me?"

Lanna loosened his hand and brushed off the non-existent dust on his hands.

Whenever it moves, the frog inside moves.

After the frog croaked for the only time, Abe became obsessed with saving it.

It was obvious that it was controlling the attack from beginning to end.

Lian Yun squatted down and poked its rubbery belly: "Little thing, you don't want to negotiate properly, right?"

"Then let's not talk about it." Lian Yun smiled. "Xiaobai, it's time for you to practice eating living things."

Xiaobai: "Squeak!"

Faced with the terrifying huge creature with its bloody mouth exposed, the little frog finally broke through its defense and cried out "croak".

Xiaobai shut up in response.

"It says surrender." Xiaobai wagged his short tail happily and looked at Lian Yun with pride.

Lian Yun looked at it with a smile: "I ask, you answer."

"First of all, you have control, right?"

“…Quack.”

"Secondly, why did you attack us? Why did you want to affect his fishing for magic crystals?" Lian Yun pointed at No. 1685 with a cold face.

The little frog said that the magic crystal was its food. Before, it had to scrape it from the wall, but now 1685 can fish it out directly, so it can just sit back and enjoy the fruits of its labor.

1685 snorted in dissatisfaction.

"Finally," Lian Yun retracted his gaze, "Would you like to come to the town?"

“…Quack?”

Not only the little frog, but the two people behind him who heard this were all stunned.

Lanna pondered for a moment before speaking softly, "Sir, although the town is short of manpower..."

But isn’t it a bit too hungry to be picky?

Abei finally realized what had just happened to him. He looked at the little frog with a bit of trepidation: "If it can manipulate the minds of the people in the town at will, it will be very dangerous, right?"

"It is indeed dangerous."

Aibei breathed a sigh of relief, thinking Lian Yun had given up the idea. Suddenly, the girl said, "It was dangerous when you came here too. Have you forgotten?"

Abe was stunned.

"In fact, the timing of everyone's arrival is not very acceptable to people." Lian Yun said.

Whether it is Lanna who struggled back from the brink of death with wounds all over his body, Xiaobai who witnessed the death of his relatives, or Abe who even hurt Lina and Lanna.

The only thing missing is the words "dangerous" and "unstable" hanging over their heads.

But they were still accepted by the town and Lianyun.

Lian Yun believes that these wonderful connections are just like the town’s mechanism for accepting residents; only those who truly want to stay will be accepted.

For Lian Yun, these encounters were God’s way of bringing her companions.

She always has a natural sense of trust.

At present, the little frog is indeed unreliable.

But it has not produced any substantial attacks so far.

It can control the big frogs behind the cave to cause chaos, and it can also make Abe commit some self-harming behaviors to divert the two's attention.

Whether it didn't expect it or was unwilling to do so, the fact is - it didn't do it.

This was the first time Lian Yun heard of the ability of mind control. Since it was rare, why not use it for himself?

Besides, she was quite sure.

She opened her backpack and took out a piece of "tamed meat".

A flash of white light passed by, and the piece of meat turned into a red stone half the size of a palm and fell into the girl's hands.

It is similar to magic crystal, but it is more energetic and dazzling than magic crystal, and the red light is obviously stronger.

The little frog's eyes suddenly widened, and he stared at the stone for a moment, his mouth drooling.

It seems that tamed chunks of meat will automatically transform based on the subject's preferences.

Lian Yun raised his hand and Xiaobai let it go.

"I just have a few words." Lian Yun waved the magic crystal in front of it.

"Follow us and you will become our partner. If you treat us sincerely, we will treat you like family."

"You need to leave here, but you will have enough magic crystals to eat."

Although tempted, the little frog still maintained a proud expression, sat steadily in the same place and croaked a few times.

Xiaobai translated to Lianyun: "It said it wants to choose its own master."

It knew that it was outnumbered, and the people in front of it obviously would not let it return to the cave.

If you can't beat them, just join them.

Lian Yun raised an eyebrow: "Okay."

The little frog jumped without hesitation and jumped towards Lana under the gaze of everyone. The latter stretched out a finger, and the little frog moved onto it and firmly grasped Lana's index finger.

The stone was handed to Lanner, who gave him a questioning look.

Lian Yun smiled and nodded: "This is its choice."

Lanna put the stone to its mouth and the little frog swallowed it in one gulp.

Unlike when he signed the contract with Lian Yun, Lana just felt that some kind of connection was connected between the little frog and him.

Like two invisible ropes seeking direction, they found each other in the fog.

They searched very quickly, and when the ropes at both ends touched, the master-pet contract took effect immediately.

In just a moment, Lana felt that some memories that did not belong to him were mixed into his spiritual realm.

Those memories attracted him and made him want to open this package of memories.

Lana also knew that he had to open it.

He closed his eyes slightly and slowly sat down on the ground against the wall.

Although Lian Yun did not have the same experience, she understood that Lana was going through some necessary processes, so she signaled Aibei not to disturb them and just wait quietly by the side.

The little frog also closed its eyes and lay quietly in Lana's hand.

Its memory is unfolding towards Lanna.

It was born decades ago.

Born among a group of brothers and sisters who are dozens or hundreds of times bigger than you.

But unlike me, they seemed to have no souls, wandering in and out of the cave non-stop.

They were wandering around while it swam in the pool.

As it hopped around trying to talk to them, they circled around it and continued wandering.

They continued to wander around unconsciously as it jumped onto the head of a large frog and stomped on it several times.

The little frog with the ability of mind control is obviously quite intelligent. It knows that it is different from others. This difference makes it easy for it to survive, but also puts it in danger.

——It knows that if its differences are discovered, the consequences will be unpredictable.

Until the first invader, Abe, broke into the territory.

Its tiny body allows it to hide among many frogs and control them to drive away invaders.

Occasionally leave a few frogs behind to feed them and then leave quickly.

The little frog hid in the hole in the water and looked at everything with blinking eyes.

It knows that it is safe.

But behind security lies endless loneliness.

If it had not given rise to wisdom, perhaps there would be no such emotion at all.

It can control the croaking of frogs and make them swim like living beings.

But from beginning to end, the only one that truly possesses life is itself.

…

Decades of memories are long, and the story of the little frog cannot be finished in a short time.

Lanna felt that the connection between himself and it became clearer and brighter, as if... there was a knot tied in it.

The knot was making a faint sound. Lanner frowned and tried to get closer to it.

"The match is extremely high, lighting up the pet's skills..." Piaomiao's voice was clear and loud, and Lana heard every word clearly.

He could feel something being activated, a new ability belonging to him and the little frog.

Lana opened his eyes and explained the situation to Lianyun.

"New skill? You try it." Lian Yun rubbed her hands. Why hadn't she encountered it before?

Lanna nodded and activated his skills.

The little frog opened his mouth: "Quack, quack, quack, quack--"

Lanna was quickly closed.

However, the piercing frog calls seemed to linger in the air, and seemed to be going on for days and nights.

Aibei clutched his head in pain. Lianyun touched his wrist, revealing [Splitting Headache Debuff: After being attacked by sonic waves, speed and thinking abilities decrease. Duration: 20 minutes.]

Lian Yun looked at him blankly, then looked at the little frog.

Lanna's face was expressionless.

The little frog half-closed his eyes with an innocent look.

So the little frog's new skill is...

"Chant?"

The two looked at each other in a daze.

Magical skills have been added.

Aibei pointed at the ground and smiled foolishly: "It's so shaky, hehe!"

Lian Yun: ...

She was about to say something when she suddenly stopped where she was.

"Come back quickly!"

An old and sharp voice suddenly rang out in Lian Yun's mind, which made people shocked.

The girl looked slightly gloomy.
