Chapter 003 Chapter 3
After chatting for a few more words, Xu Ling went home.
She came here specifically to show Xia Muqing Ming Yueying.
Xia Muqing held the Swift Dog in her arms and opened the door. "This will be your home from now on. This is the kitchen, this is the bedroom... There's an empty room over there. I'll clean it up and make it into a room for you, okay?"
She originally planned to buy mini bees or koi fish, both of which are small-sized mysterious beasts, so she didn't prepare a large space at the beginning.
But the Swift Dog is different. Most canine-like mysterious beasts are very active and like spacious and bright environments. Small spaces can easily make them irritable.
There wasn't much stuff in the house, so it was quick to clean up. Xia Muqing quickly cleared out a room and used unused sheets to make a small bed for the Gale Dog.
During this time, the Swift Dog followed her everywhere, like a quiet little white fur ball.
Xia Muqing couldn't help it, so she picked her up and rubbed her hard again.
Good boy, so good.
He is so well-behaved that he doesn't even look like a hurricane dog.
Then, Xia Muqing took Xiaofeng to do some simple exercises.
Soon, she discovered the shining point of Xiaofeng.
Although it is timid, its past experiences have made it develop a quiet and well-behaved character. Xiaofeng is very obedient and will carry out Xia Muqing's instructions very seriously. Its endurance is beyond Xia Muqing's imagination. It does not become irritable after practicing for a while like other hurricane dogs.
Attack, retreat, dodge, defend...
After an hour of practicing simple commands, the little Swift Dog was already exhausted and sticking out its tongue. Even though it was a mysterious beast, it was still a newly born cub and had limited physical strength.
Xia Muqing quickly poured it a glass of nutritious milk.
It's not milk for humans to drink, but a milk specially developed to provide nutrition for mysterious beasts. A small cup costs one hundred star coins.
But the effect is good. The little hurricane dog can't stop drinking. Its little tongue keeps rolling and its nose almost sticks into the cup.
Xia Muqing: "Is it delicious?"
Little Swift Dog: "Woo!"
Delicious!
Xia Muqing narrowed her eyes and smiled: "Then drink more, and then practice another round after you are full."
Little Swift Dog: “……?”
The action of drinking milk stopped abruptly.
"Oh, I was just kidding," Xia Muqing rubbed its fluffy little head, "I'm so tired today, I definitely need to get some rest."
But seeing that Xiaofeng was so well-behaved, there was always a little devil in her heart that wanted to bully it.
The silly Xiaofeng is so cute too!
…
The next day, Xia Muqing took the Swift Dog out for a walk.
Although it was just a walk in the community, after yesterday's friendly interaction, the little hurricane dog was no longer as reserved as it was at the beginning. Instead, it looked around curiously and sniffed everywhere with its little nose.
But it didn't run around. It still followed Xia Muqing closely, rubbing her instep with its soft body from time to time.
The well-behaved appearance of the little hurricane dog attracted the attention of many passers-by, with a turning-back rate of up to 90%.
Sure enough, in this world, most people can't resist furry things.
After breakfast, Xia Muqing took the Swift Dog to a training center.
The first is speed practice.
The training effect was unexpectedly good. Because of his talent for sensing danger, Xiaofeng was always able to detect traps on the road in advance, successfully avoid obstacles, and sprint to the finish line at the fastest speed.
Even the staff at the training ground couldn't help but come over and take a few more glances at it. They said to Xia Muqing, "Your little fellow is very talented. Even among wind-attributed profound beasts, there are very few that are as agile and flexible as it."
“Ouch~”
The little hurricane dog was very happy to receive the praise and raised its head slightly.
However, in the subsequent simulated battle, Xiaofeng's performance was not so satisfactory.
The desire to attack is extremely weak. When the opponent approaches within one meter, he will dodge hurriedly and has no desire to fight back at all. In simple terms, there is one word: coward.
He was really cowardly, so cowardly that the staff couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but come closer: "You... your hurricane dog's partiality is too serious, isn't it?"
"If you're so timid in a mock battle, what are you going to do in a real battle?"
Xia Muqing also had a headache.
She knew Xiaofeng was timid, but she didn't expect him to be so timid.
"The problem is more serious than you think," the staff member muttered. "The Swift Dog is a melee beast. It'll have to learn skills like 'Bite' and 'Charge' in the future. Looking at its current state, can it possibly learn them?"
"I see you haven't officially signed the contract yet. Buying a hurricane dog like this must be very expensive. Would you consider getting a different one..."
Before he finished speaking, Xia Muqing suddenly interrupted: "Thank you, but no thanks."
“…”
The staff shrugged and kept their mouths shut.
After the training, the little hurricane dog ran timidly to Xia Muqing with its short legs.
It also knew that it had performed poorly and disappointed its new owner. Its round, transparent black eyes were wet and its little nose was shaking.
Its previous owner returned it after a simulation exercise.
Where is Xia Muqing?
The staff member was operating the equipment nearby, adjusting the field mode. "Next up is the bite drill. How's it going? Shall we continue?"
Xia Muqing bent down, held the curled up little hurricane dog in her arms, and shook her head: "No need, let's stop here."
…
After leaving the training ground, Xia Muqing did not go home, but walked around the street and went to the east.
The little hurricane dog recognized that this was the road leading to Zhu Ning's breeding center, and suddenly the whole beast felt unwell, with its hair standing up and shaking non-stop.
“Ouch…”
No way, is it going to be returned again?
The little hurricane dog hung its head, feeling that the future was bleak.
But Xia Muqing's bicycle stopped at the corner in advance.
"Come on, Xiaofeng," she picked up the Swift Dog, "I'll take you to a good place."
Xia Muqing pushed open the door of a colorful shop.
The noise inside was filled with dynamic music and the clattering of coins. Little Windy Dog huddled in her arms, cautiously poking his head out to take in the new surroundings.
This is an arcade.
There are various game consoles outside, and a spacious room inside. The floor is covered with light screens cut into small pieces, flashing patterns of various colors.
"This is called a dodging machine," Xia Muqing put the little hurricane dog on the ground. "You get different points for stepping on different colored blocks, but you lose points for stepping on black blocks... Anyway, it's really fun. Do you want to try it?"
Little Swift Dog: “……?”
Not only was it not sent away, but the owner also brought it here to play games?
"Oooooh...woo?"
Then... just play?
Xia Muqing smiled and pressed the start button.
The squares on the ground immediately began to move rapidly. The little hurricane dog couldn't dodge in time and accidentally pressed its little paw on the black square. A huge "-10 points" immediately flashed on the screen in front of the room.
Little Swift Dog: “!!”
It shuddered all over, immediately perked up and immersed itself in the game with full concentration.
Although the reaction speed of the mysterious beast is faster than that of humans, this area is very large and the Swift Dog is small, so it is still very difficult to move.
After Xiaofeng had adapted a little, Xia Muqing quietly increased the speed of the blocks. Gradually, the blocks on the ground flashed like neon lights, and the speed of the little hurricane dog became faster and faster, almost turning into a white snow.
A game ends and brilliant sparks pop up on the screen.
[You have earned 7028 points. Congratulations on breaking the game record! ]
Little Swift Dog: "Woo!"
It’s fun! It wants to play more!
Seeing that the little hurricane dog had regained its vitality, Xia Muqing squatted down with a smile and patted its little head: "It's fun, right? Let's use this method to train it in the future, okay?"
"As long as you break through 10,000 points, I will give you a reward for every additional 1,000 points you get."
The little Swift Dog looked up and stared at her in disbelief.
Is playing games considered training?
Is this true? Is there such a good thing?
…
Xia Muqing had carefully considered choosing this method to train the Gale Dog.
Xiaofeng is still a cub, and overly strict training may not be suitable for it. Moreover, its personality is somewhat introverted. If the training results are always poor, it will only make the little dog more and more inferior.
The most important thing now is to help Xiaofeng build confidence.
Moreover, Xia Muqing had inquired that this dodging machine had been modified and its speed could be increased by several levels, making it very suitable for speed training.
The appearance of blocks is random, and since they do not pose any danger, they will not be sensed by Xiaofeng's talent. This can train it not to rely on characteristics and improve its own reaction ability.
The man and the dog stayed in the video game store for another two hours, having a very enjoyable and satisfying time.
As Xiaofeng became more familiar with the game, his score continued to improve, eventually settling at 8512. This was still a short distance from Xia Muqing's goal of 10,000 points, but the little Swift Dog's speed had been maximized, and every point he gained from then on would be a step forward.
This is also a way to put some pressure on the little hurricane dog besides the game.
When the little hurricane dog was resting, Xia Muqing looked at it with envy and ran over to play with it.
The lowest gear speed scored 3389 points.
Xia Muqing: "..."
It’s less than half of Xiaofeng’s score in the first game. It’s a bit embarrassing.
"Ouch."
The little zipper came over on its short legs and licked her hand with its tongue.
Xia Muqing thought for a moment and said, "How about this, I'll also set a goal and reach 5000 points."
"Let's work together and see who can achieve it first, okay?"
The little Swift Dog put its head in her palm and purred softly.
…
By the time we got home, it was already late.
After a day of getting along, the relationship between Xia Muqing and the little hurricane dog quickly warmed up, and Xiaofeng now completely regarded Xia Muqing as his master.
The time has come to sign the contract.
With the emotional foundation laid in the early stages, the contract signing process will become very simple. Xia Muqing only needs to place her fingers on Xiaofeng's forehead, mobilize the spiritual power in her body, and interweave it with Xiaofeng's spiritual power.
A flash of white light passed by.
Xia Muqing rubbed her temples and felt that something had become apparent in her consciousness, connecting it to the little white ball in front of her.
Now, she can understand Xiaofeng's thoughts more clearly.
More importantly, after contracting the first mysterious beast, the "Mysterious Beast Atlas" in her mind was finally unlocked!
Her eyes fell on Xiaofeng who was licking his paws. Xia Muqing's mind moved slightly, and a string of words immediately unfolded before her eyes.
[Type: Swift Dog]
【Quality: Excellent】
[Trait: Danger Prediction]
[Five-dimensional attributes: Attack (72 points), Defense (73 points), Speed (94 points), Endurance (85 points), Spirit (91 points)]
Xia Muqing held her breath, her heart pounding.
It really is a danger foreknowledge.
In addition to its traits, it also had a clear attribute panel. This way, while others were still exploring the abilities of their own profound beasts, she could already clearly see the five-dimensional attributes of the little hurricane dog at a glance and conduct targeted training!
