The blue python can recover and heal on its own by feeding it herbs and food.

This pet contract is pretty good; it's a thick book, and this is only the first page.

The next page is inaccessible; unlocking it requires some kind of trigger.

The first pet was an S-rank, and a combat-type one at that.

Even if this island trip yields no treasures, this battle pet alone is already worthwhile.

After the contract was successfully signed, as the master, she naturally knew the general thoughts of her battle pet.

For example, the meaning of "Azure Python" is that it is in pain all over its body and needs treatment.

And she hoped that she could prepare herbs for it.

It's kind of like a real-life pet-raising game.

Shen Jue: "Can you shrink your size? You're so big now, I can't move you."

After the Azure Python and Shen Jue form a contract, the Azure Python will subconsciously become closer to Shen Jue.

Therefore, after hearing Shen Jue's words, the Azure Python thought for a moment, and the next moment, its huge size shrank in front of Shen Jue.

It shrank until it became a tiny black snake, looking extremely small.

It fits perfectly on the wrist; if you weren't familiar with it, you might easily mistake it for an ordinary black jade bracelet.

It's quite convenient to carry.

“You’ve lived on this island for so long, you must know very well where the herbs are.”

The small black snake coiled around her wrist nodded.

The connection between a battle pet and its master is one of spiritual communion.

If she goes to the wrong place, the little black snake on her wrist will move as a sign of protest.

I also used the tip of my tail to point her in the right direction.

Guided by the little black snake, they passed through the ancient forest without any obstacles.

Shen Jue was very satisfied with the excellent chemistry they had on their first collaboration.

She believes that their understanding will improve in the future.

Following the path guided by the little black snake, Shen Jue has now arrived in another mountain forest.

The beasts in the forest seemed to have caught the scent of the Azure Python, the overlord.

Quietly hiding in its den and not venturing out, the Azure Python usually wouldn't come here unless it was injured.

Now that it's here, we'll have to ruin the herbs again.

The trees in this forest are sparsely covered with leaves, and at a glance, it looks as if some creature has stripped them bare.

Aside from these, there were many shrubs and plants on the ground that Chen Jue did not recognize.

The herbs the Azure Python needs might be among them; it will take some effort to find them.

Shen Jue picked plants from the ground again and again, letting the Azure Python identify them.

The Azure Python will swallow any plants it deems useful, but will shake its head at any plants it deems useless.

After an hour of persistent searching for herbs, the blue python finally responded that it didn't need them anymore.

This indicates that his injuries have healed considerably.

With the Azure Python's injuries under control, it was time for Shen Jue to begin his treasure hunt.

Every time Shen Jue arrived at a new area, he would ask the Azure Python if there were any dangers there.

After all, animals are much more sensitive than humans.

Even with her improved physical condition, she is still far from possessing the keen senses of an animal.

The Azure Python and she were in the same boat; if she were gone, the Azure Python would be gone too.

This is the kind of situation where everyone benefits from her misfortune, and no one can survive if she harms them.

The Azure Python would naturally not do anything that would endanger its own life.

Shen Jue ran around the island, collecting materials everywhere.

Now they're really busy searching for treasure.
