"But I'm not resigned to this, I want to become stronger too."
"Even Old Wang next door could find two beautiful wives, while I could only peek at Widow Zhang taking a bath."
"Besides being a little fat, a little poor, a little lazy, and a little sleazy, I, Zhao Qiang, am no worse than anyone else in any other way."
"Why can everyone else awaken as a Spirit Master, but I can't? I refuse to accept this!"
Zhao Qiang vented his dissatisfaction, or rather, his frustration.
Lu Yuan could understand Zhao Qiang's frustration, because he had felt the same way over the past year.
"Qiangzi, I heard Zhang Qian mention that there's a very small chance of monsters dropping contract cards."
"Once you have the contract card, you can also become a Spirit Master."
"Although the chances are very small, small doesn't mean there are no chances. As long as we live, we must have hope, and as long as there is hope, we must strive for it."
"People must have dreams and hopes. If you lose your dreams and hopes, then living becomes a burden."
"Besides, you still have me as your good brother, so you don't need to worry. If there's meat, I'll share half with you, and if there's a house, I'll give you one!"
"Alright, the barbecue is ready, let's eat!"
Zhao Qiang nodded; Lu Yuan was right.
This time, Bai Ling was very well-behaved and only ate its own two skewers. However, it ate very quickly and then lay down in front of Lu Yuan after it finished.
He was supposed to be lying down, but he was actually staring at Lu Yuan eating roasted snake meat, practically drooling.
Lu Yuan couldn't actually finish that much, so he gave the remaining piece to Bai Ling. Bai Ling was overjoyed; after waiting for so long, she had finally gotten something.
However, it ate very quickly, then turned around and stared at Zhao Qiang.
Feeling uncomfortable under his gaze, Zhao Qiang had no choice but to toss the roasted snake, which he hadn't had a chance to eat yet, to Bai Ling.
"Meow!"
It was rare that Bai Ling wasn't fierce towards Zhao Qiang this time; she even greeted him a couple of times in a friendly manner.
Zhao Qiang understood that this thing was a glutton; it would do anything as long as it was given food.
After eating the roasted snake meat, my stomach was finally full.
"Huh, isn't it getting a little darker?"
Lu Yuan looked at the sky. There was no sun here, but there was still some light. The sky was obviously much darker than before.
I calculated the time, and it should be evening by now. I figured it was getting late since I hadn't seen anything outside.
"Let's go, let's keep clearing monsters and get Bai Ling to level up before nightfall!"
After Lu Yuan finished speaking, he shouldered his large machete and set off.
Only Lu Yuan himself knew how much he longed to increase his strength. If he were strong enough, Zhang Qian would cheat on him.
If he's powerful enough, would Su Lei dare to touch his woman?
A machete and a dagger are not even in the same league. Fighting a snake with a dagger is extremely dangerous.
But the broadsword is different. It has a diameter of more than 1 meter. When you see a monster, you can just swing it down. The efficiency is on a completely different level.
Therefore, with the large cleaver in hand, the cleanup was much faster, and Bai Ling upgraded again when it got dark.
Lu Yuan also felt his body become stronger, and he could almost kill a bull with one punch.
Pet Name: Gluttonous Beast (Bai Ling)
Pet potential: SSS level
Current level: Level E
Current experience: 105/1000
Pet skills: Devour, Cut, Be Cute, Flame Breath!
Lu Yuan's eyes lit up. This was another skill, and it was a magic skill at that. He just didn't know how powerful this skill was.
However, when he saw the experience bar for leveling up, he was speechless. Each time he leveled up, a zero had to be added to the end. So how much experience would it take to level up eventually?
A billion? Ten billion? Hundred billion?
Lu Yuan felt a headache just thinking about it.
Just as Lu Yuan was shaking his head and smiling bitterly to himself, Shen Tu spoke.
“Master. The reason why ferocious beasts are called ferocious beasts is that they are powerful, but the path to advancement will definitely become much more difficult.”
"However, as you grow, the level of the monsters you face will also increase, and naturally, you will gain more experience points."
"The so-called existence is reasonable. The way of heaven is fair, and the creator is fair. While you have abundant and powerful strength, the effort you have to put in is many times that of others."
Lu Yuan nodded. He understood the principle, but he was a little scared when he saw the experience bar.
"Is there any other way to upgrade?"
That's right, Lu Yuan wanted to take a shortcut!
Fortunately, the divine map gave him a positive answer.
"Of course, such as devouring!"
"Devouring is the Taotie's innate supernatural power. It can devour everything. The more it eats, the better, and the faster it grows."
"It's just that it's still in its infancy, so its abnormality isn't apparent yet. Once it reaches a higher level, this skill will give you a real shock."
"However, another headache arises, which is that you need to have enough food for it to devour, otherwise it will eat you out of house and home."
Lu Yuan finally understood. To put it simply, while ferocious beasts are powerful, they also come with corresponding burdens.
However, these are all things for the future; at least for now, we don't need to consider these issues.
"Holy crap, how did this little guy get so big?"
Zhao Qiang's words brought Lu Yuan back to his senses.
Lu Yuan looked down and, sure enough, Bai Ling was now about the size of a Tibetan Mastiff.
It was basically parallel to Lu Yuan's waist.
"Bai Ling, can your body shrink back?"
Lu Yuan asked casually.
"Meow!"
After Bai Ling cried out twice, her body swayed a couple of times, and soon she returned to her previous size. Then she jumped directly into Lu Yuan's arms and started to act coquettishly.
At this moment, Bai Ling's entire body was as white as jade, and her hair was shiny and lustrous; she was definitely a heartbreaker for young girls.
Lu Yuan finally understood the purpose of this "cuteness" function.
Knowing only his appearance, if he were to deceive the enemy, who would have thought that he was Taotie, one of the four ferocious beasts?
Indeed, no skill is superfluous; the key is whether you know how to use it.
Lu Yuan suddenly realized a problem: Bai Ling could learn skills or awaken her innate divine power by leveling up, so why couldn't he?
"If you don't understand, ask the divine diagram." This is a wise saying.
"Master, Spirit Masters cannot awaken skills. If you want skills, you can only obtain skill books by defeating monsters."
"And you, Master, are a non-awakened Spirit Master. Besides obtaining skills by killing monsters, there is another way to acquire them."
"That's skill deprivation."
"Because of the existence of this divine map, the master can select one of the skills of a monster that has been killed."
"To give you an example, if you kill a monster and want its skill, you can choose to take that skill and use it for yourself!"
"The premise is that this skill is suitable for humans, and the master can also fuse the same skills and then upgrade them."
"Similarly, the skills to be fused must be of the same attribute. For example, lightning attribute skills can only be fused with lightning attribute skills."
"If they are two different attribute skills, they cannot be fused together. Otherwise, forcibly fusing them would be very dangerous because the attributes would repel each other."
"It could kill someone!"
Lu Yuan's eyes lit up; he hadn't expected the Divine Map to have this benefit!
