Seeing Fang Lan's message, Lu Ran couldn't help but hold the phone tightly, and immediately worried about the other party's situation.

How could this happen? He and Fang Lan were chosen right after each other? Although Xiao Bailong said that black cards were coming in large numbers, this was too much of a coincidence.

Has she already contracted a pet? Lu Ran quickly looked down and saw a lot of messages from Fang Lan. He wanted to know whether Fang Lan followed the black card's instructions to become a beastmaster.

Although he and Mr. Ha had a lot of fun in the Novice Secret Realm and even wanted to play there for a few more days, it was still very dangerous for ordinary people.

Fang Lan: [Hey, hey, hey, this is actually true, answer the phone, where the hell have you been? ]

Fang Lan: [Should I follow its guidance and become a beastmaster? It feels a bit dangerous, but... it looks very interesting. I don't want to give up this opportunity. What should I do?]

There is a delay of more than ten minutes before the next message comes.

Fang Lan: [Damn it, I've made up my mind. I'm going to give it a try. I can't control myself any more.]

Lu Ran: ??? Don’t try! Trying everything will only hurt you! Can’t you think about it for a while? How can you make a decision so quickly?

Fang Lan: [I'm back home. I plan to make a contract with my beloved baby. Although I feel that it would be better to make a contract with a large dog, I still want to leave this opportunity of 'evolution' to it! ]

My dearest...

Lu Ran remembered that it was a spider, Fang Lan’s favorite spider.

The species of that spider is the "Big Xia Wolf Spider", which is distributed in many places in Xia Country and is considered a very common spider.

They are sturdy, agile and ferocious hunters. In some places they are also called "earth heroes" and are important natural enemies of many agricultural and forestry pests such as beetles and noctuids.

But the reason why Fang Lan particularly likes her Big Xia Wolf Spider is because this one... is a Big Xia Wolf Spider of different colors, which is very rare.

Ordinary large summer wolf spiders are earthy gray, but this one is blue-purple.

But, is it really okay to contract a spider...

Although Xiao Bailong said that Infinite City has self-awareness and will arrange appropriate trial secret realms based on the initial pets chosen by newcomers, Lu Ran is still worried.

Why is this guy as anxious as me?

I can only say that they are indeed siblings, but they are obviously not related by blood! He continued to read the next message.

Fang Lan: [!!!]

Fang Lan: [How amazing (amazing face), I completed the contract, it has become so cool, it feels like it is almost as big as your Mr. Ha!!!]

Fang Lan: [Picture]

Lu Ran was stunned when he looked at the blue-purple wolf spider sent by Fang Lan, which was as big as a medium-sized dog.

Wait, can such a small wolf spider grow so big after awakening its extraordinary powers?

Fang Lan: [It’s too strong. Its toxicity has increased a lot. The toughness of spider silk has also become very strong. Even the silk it spits out can be coated with poison. I tested the toxicity and it should be able to poison an adult instantly...]

Lu Ran: ??? No, why does your pet have poisonous properties? !

Ah, the Great Summer Wolf Spider is poisonous? That's fine.

Shit, the person who made the contract with the electric eel must have lightning ability naturally.

Fang Lan: [There are still ten minutes left before we are teleported away. I wonder if Xiao Lan and I can make it. It should be fine... It said it will protect me well.]

Fang Lan: [Lu Ran!!! I didn’t tell my parents about this. I just sent them a text message saying that I’m staying at my best friend’s house today. After seeing the message, don’t tell them anything. Wait for me to come back. If I don’t come back, then my parents will be in your care.]

I……

When Lu Ran saw Fang Lan's message, he couldn't help but feel a headache. Fang Lan had been braver and wilder than him since he was a child. In elementary school, he dared to catch spiders and snakes with his bare hands. It was inevitable that he would be excited when encountering such things.

Lu Ran quickly called Fang Lan...

No one answered...

It seems that he is still in the secret realm or infinite city and has not returned.

"It should be fine."

Lu Ran actually thought that if black cards were to become available on a large scale, someone he knew would one day be selected.

But I didn't expect it to be so fast.

Fang Lan does one thing better than him.

Before going to a dangerous place, leave a message for acquaintances.

I didn’t prepare enough before…

I'll learn from this lesson next time. If I enter Infinite City again, I'll leave a message in advance to avoid any trouble...

"Once school starts, the time we have to enter Infinite City will undoubtedly be greatly reduced. If I take a leave of absence... it will be difficult to handle."

"I can't let my studies delay my beast training."

"It's just a make-up class for the holidays now, so I can still skip it. But after school starts, I won't be able to take leave like this. Forget it, let's take it one step at a time. Xiao Bailong said that this kind of thing can be solved with him, so I'll ask him about it when the time comes."

Lu Ran called Fang Lan again, but still no one answered.

He sat down on the sofa, his head getting bigger and bigger, but Lu Ran believed that Fang Lan would be fine. If he didn't have the gift of telepathy, Lu Ran thought that he was not as good as Fang Lan in getting along with animals and being sensitive to the wild. There was nothing he could do even if he was anxious. He could only wait.

…

at the same time.

Infinite City No. 3.

A tall figure came out of the exclusive room and looked at the mysterious starry sky excitedly.

"What? It's just a novice trial. It's so easy. But we performed so well, why is it only a B score?"

"Forget it, let's take a look at what's going on here first."

Seeing the figure, she quickly walked over.

“Um… hello!”

"Newcomer?"

The figure was wearing a black T-shirt and brown shorts, with a white research coat on the outside. His pair of slender legs, which were no less beautiful than Fang Lan's, were wrapped in black stockings. His cold temperament immediately made Fang Lan stop in his tracks as he approached.

"That..." Fang Lan looked at the woman in amazement. She was so beautiful... but so cold.

Hmm? Fang Lan took a closer look at the other person and suddenly remembered something.

"You, are you Dr. Gu?!" Fang Lan asked in surprise.

"You know me?" the woman in research clothes asked in surprise.

"My name is Fang Lan. I'm a freshman majoring in veterinary medicine at Magic University this year. I've seen your interview, Dr. Gu."

The woman in the research suit was even more surprised. She didn't expect that the new person she met randomly turned out to be her junior schoolmate.

Her cold expression melted, and she smiled faintly and said, "I see. Hello, I am indeed Gu Qingyi. Since I am your junior, you can just call me Senior Sister Gu."

"From your looks, you must have a lot of questions at this moment. I happen to have some time, so I will answer them for you."

"Okay! Thank you, Senior Sister Gu!" Fang Lan immediately turned into a fangirl, because she knew how great the person in front of her was in academics.

At such a young age, he has a doctorate in both animal medicine and animal science! Was he also chosen to be a beastmaster? …

Green Sea City, Starlight Community.

While waiting for Fang Lan, Lu Ran wanted to summon Mr. Ha and awaken his attributes, but he felt that Mr. Ha seemed to have fallen asleep in the black card space.

"Hehe, you get tired sometimes, too."

He gave up the idea of ​​asking Mr. Ha to awaken his attributes immediately. That's right, not only was he tired after a day of fighting, but Mr. Ha was even more tired. Although his injuries could be recovered, the physical, mental and spiritual fatigue could not be recovered.

I also drank Mingshen tea, but Mr. Ha only ate some fruits... Let it sleep for a while.

Lu Ran was also planning to take advantage of this time to take a look at the Basic Beast Taming Manual he bought from the cat-eared intelligence dealer, so that he could pretend to be the big boss after Fang Lan came out.

The manual is not of high value. The other party asked for 100 crystal coins. It is probably a common item. After all, according to Xiaobailong, this kind of basic information is given for free if you join the official website or the guild.

However, Xiao Ling repeatedly explained that their basic intelligence contained little knowledge and tricks that other companies had not recorded, so Lu Ran would not suffer any loss if he bought it.

Lu Ran materialized the booklet he had bought and opened the first page.

The first page is a brief introduction to the Beastmaster.

[A beastmaster is a profession that contracts, trains, and controls pet beasts! ]

[Among them, the strength of a combat-type beastmaster is roughly composed of two parts. ]

[The first is the combat power of the pet, and the second is from one's own beast-controlling skills! ]

[The basic combat power of a pet is determined by its growth level and race level...]

Lu Ran carefully looked for important information.

"The level of a pet is the numerical level seen by the Data Eye. Level 1 is the lowest, and the highest level is currently unknown? But every 10 levels, the pet will reach a bottleneck and can no longer be upgraded, just as Mr. Xiaobailong said."

"Similarly, the same is true for Beast Tamers, who are divided into apprentice, level one, level two... corresponding to each level stage of pets from level 1 to 10, level 11 to 20, and level 21 to 30. If a Beast Tamer wants to improve his level, he must let his pet break through the bottleneck, and the way to let the pet break through the bottleneck is to break through the corresponding level of the secret realm."

"As long as you pass the corresponding level of breakthrough secret realm once, all pets will benefit..."

"It seems that breaking through the secret realm is a hurdle that cannot be avoided..." Lu Ran pondered.

He continued to capture key information.

"A beastmaster without beast taming skills cannot be considered a qualified beastmaster."

"There are many kinds of beast taming skills, which can be roughly divided into two types: consuming the power of the beast tamer to strengthen the beast's beast taming skills, and using the power of the pet to strengthen the beast tamer's own beast taming skills. Therefore, there are two schools of beast tamers..."

"The source of the Beast Taming Skill is the secret realm rewards. The drops in each secret realm are different. In some special secret realms, there is a 1% chance of rewarding a Beast Taming Skill Card for S-rated players... So it is extremely difficult to obtain a Beast Taming Skill Card."

Damn, seeing this, Lu Ran was shocked, and couldn't help but feel lucky. Although he only got an S score in the Novice Secret Realm, he was obviously very lucky as he actually dropped a Beast Taming Skill Card.

Comfortable.

Of course, it may also be related to the critical hit reward mechanism of the Novice Secret Realm. According to Xiaobailong, the rewards of the Novice Secret Realm are far richer than those of the ordinary Secret Realm of the same level. It can be regarded as a benefit for newcomers, including experience points for killing monsters.

Super Beast Mimicry... This skill should belong to the latter style, that is, to use the power of pet beasts to strengthen the beastmaster!

"At each level of a beastmaster, you can only learn one beastmaster skill, so if you have a choice, it's best to match your beastmaster skills well."

"That is to say... I can only learn the next one after I reach the first level of Beast Tamer."

Lu Ran continued reading.

"In theory, there is no rarity or grade for beast taming skills. The effect that can be exerted depends entirely on the beast tamer's own development of the beast taming skills. There are no rubbish beast taming skills, only rubbish beast tamers... Such a familiar sentence."

This point was specially bolded in the manual, so Lu Ran took note of it carefully. The beast control skill is not just a superficial effect... The beast control master can also develop himself! Lu Ran thought about it, and it was almost the same as he expected. Not long after he obtained the super beast mimicry, he actually had the idea of ​​improving this beast control skill... He continued to scan some important information.

For example, the race levels of pets are divided into extraordinary races, leading races, and king races... Each race is divided into low, medium, and high levels...

For example, some basic effects and restraint relationships of different attributes.

Of course, these are relatively simple. What Lu Ran values ​​most is the theory of training direction which is given a separate page in the training manual!

This is also the most important page in the training manual! [The skills of the pet beast need to be developed by the pet beast itself under the guidance of the beastmaster. According to the training method, each pet beast can be unique. ]

[However, due to the limited energy and learning ability of pets, the direction of pet skill development can be roughly divided into four categories! ]
