Mr. Ha and Lu Ran landed slowly.

As soon as he landed, Lu Ran checked the harvest.

【Name】: Shadow Mine

[Level]: Advanced [Introduction]: It has good dark energy conduction and amplification effects, and can be used to manufacture weapons and equipment.

After taking a look, Lu Ran shook his head. The Shadow Ore might be more valuable than the Ice Crystal Ore exploded in the Blizzard Mountain Secret Realm, but it should be far less valuable than the Meteorite Iron Ore and would not make Lu Ran rich.

Then, Lu Ran took out a card.

Its style is very similar to that of a contract card or identity card. It is golden in color and has various beast patterns on it.

【Name】：Upgrade Card

[Introduction]: Can be used to upgrade contract cards.

"An upgrade card actually popped up. My luck is really good this time." Lu Ran glanced at Mr. Ha who was grinning at the Demon Bull Leader beside him and smiled slightly.

When Lu Ran first got the black card, there was a reminder like this.

Tip ④: [The success rate of capturing a contract card depends on the user's mental strength and the quality of the contract card. Do not capture creatures that you cannot control, otherwise the contract card may be damaged or the pet may backfire.]

Contract cards have different qualities! The contract cards that the new beast masters just received are only the lowest quality contract cards.

If you want to obtain high-quality contract cards, you cannot rely on the distribution of Infinite City, but you have to upgrade them using your own resources.

The Abyss Difficulty Secret Realm has two special drops, one is the upgrade card, and the other is the special crystal.

Compared to special crystals, the drop rate of upgrade cards is higher, but not much higher.

Lu Ran could only say that the explosion rate this time was outrageous.

In addition, if Lu Ran remembered correctly, from the relevant information he saw, the first upgrade of the contract card only required one upgrade card.

After upgrading, the contract card can not only capture more powerful creatures, but the space within the contract card will also have a new special effect.

For example, after the first upgrade, when the pet is in the contract card, the physical recovery speed will increase.

This function may seem useless, but it is useful if you have many pets. You can then take turns switching pets out to fight. When one is tired, it can go back to rest, and then come out to fight again after resting. This can save a lot of resources for restoring physical energy.

Lu Ran didn't know how many times the contract card could be upgraded. He only knew that the first upgrade required one upgrade card, the second upgrade required ten, the third upgrade required one hundred... the fourth upgrade required one thousand...

The person who broke the news on the Beast Tamer Forum said that the number of upgrade cards needed later is estimated to be huge, so no one knows the upper limit.

As for the specific effects brought about by each upgrade, they are naturally different.

I heard that when the contract card reaches a very high level, there is a "time pause" effect, which can temporarily stop the life of a dying pet after entering it.

At this moment, after getting the upgrade card, Lu Ran took out the contract card without saying a word and slapped the two cards together.

The next moment, there was a flash of light, and the two cards merged.

The original black-edged contract black card immediately had a thin silver border, indicating that it had been upgraded.

"Next."

Lu Ran used the upgrade card on the spot, and then looked at the last resource that made his heart beat faster, the special crystal.

[Name]: Special Crystal (Weapon Mastery) [Introduction]: After fusion, pets can master any weapon, and the weapon will become a part of their body.

“That’s it!” Lu Ran smiled. His unlucky senior brother had spent two months trying to get this thing, but he got it on the first try. He was so lucky.

He had been prepared to waste ten days or half a month, but he won it in seconds! Lu Ran was in a good mood, but he didn't plan to merge with Mr. Ha here. Mr. Ha was not in a good condition now, so he should wait until he had a complete rest.

However, after reading the three bonus resources, Lu Ran fell into deep thought again.

I used the upgrade card and the special crystal myself, so I definitely won't sell them. The shadow ore is probably not worth much money.

From this perspective, the 50,000 crystal coins owed for forging the Ice Sky Greatsword were not solved much by this trip to the secret realm?

It seems that... the dragon blood crystal of the violently dead king cannot be redeemed in the short term...

"It doesn't matter. Once Mr. Ha has integrated the new traits, he will be able to solo the Abyss Secret Realm like a butcher."

"It won't be long before not only will I be able to pay back the crystal coins that I owe to Bingkong Great Sword, but I will also be able to pay back the money I owe to Dr. Gu."

“Looking at it this way, the future is promising!” Lu Ran comforted himself.

Then, he looked towards the abandoned test site and said to Mr. Ha, "Mr. Ha, although this has been dismantled, can you dismantle it again? Go and see if you can help me dig out something valuable..."

"Woo?"

Speaking of dismantling things, Mr. Ha is not tired at all. His eyes light up, but he turned his head to look at the test site that was already in ruins and fell into deep thought.

I always feel that this is a technical job.

…

In the outside world, the news that Lu Ran reached the top of Infinite City No. 5 continued to ferment.

At this time, whether it is Infinite City or the hot spots outside, the spiritual energy is still reviving.

For example, a country in Africa dispatched its army to encircle and suppress the mutant lion king.

For example, a well-known beast tamer went to a restricted area to broadcast live, and disappeared after encountering a ferocious beast.

In Xia country, beastmasters are also paying attention to similar news.

Changes in newcomer lists like the Extraordinary List actually don’t attract much attention.

However, for some unknown reason, the news of changes in the list of extraordinary divine pets made it into the top ten hot searches on Xia Country's internet for the first time. Although it was only number ten, it was also very rare.

News title: "A day of shame for Infinite City No. 5."

There was passionate discussion in all the comment sections.

Determined to raise a beast-eared girl: [The pet of Pluto of the Star Guild has already integrated its characteristics, and I can understand that it has such a record. What's wrong with this passerby? The middle-level extraordinary race snow dog slashed and severely damaged the middle-level leader race? Slashed? ]

Mortal Taming Beast Legend: [Many people don't know much about Infinite City No. 3. Let me introduce you to Passerby A. His pet is a snow dog holding a sword. A week ago, he killed a low-level leader race with one sword in a public secret realm. Now this can only be described as basic operation. We mortals don't understand the world of the bosses! But it's a bit strange that two people went there together. What do you think? Is it possible that Pluto wanted to change the list and get the first place, and Passerby A happened to go there for something... Hiss, I can't guess anymore or he will be assassinated. (Holding back laughter)]

Cause of the Disaster: [I am the beastmaster of the Infinite City No. 5. I am very sad and hope that Sister White Tiger can defeat them both.]

White Tiger Sister’s ID is Bai Ling. She is a fourth-generation beastmaster from the Four Saints Guild. She has a contract with an albino Bengal tiger and was originally number one in the No. 5 Infinite City.

But this time, not only was he pushed to second place by a thunder eagle, but he was also immediately crushed by a dog. This was no longer a matter of a tiger being bullied by a dog...

Many beastmasters in Infinite City No. 5 hope that Sister White Tiger can revive the spirit of the Beast King and kill these two outsiders.

At this time, Bai Ling himself was also in a room watching the news with his fists clenched, wondering how he and his guild had offended those two beasts from Infinite City No. 3.

Various forces and a large number of newcomers are watching the fun.

Soon, the news reached Lu Ran's acquaintances. Fang Lan was originally collecting poisons in Lvhai City, but he was shocked to see that Lu Ran had become a hot topic after only being gone for half a day.

"The boss was severely damaged. So, did you kill him or not?"

"If I kill it, will it drop any special crystals?"

"Oh, this news is not good. There is no useful content! Forget it, let's wait for Lu Ran to come back and tell us."

She continued to be the little girl collecting venom.

“Has it started yet?”

In the Magic City, Gu Qingyi, who was exploring the East China Sea, also got the news.

Seeing this trending search, she immediately understood that Lu Ran had begun to challenge the abyss difficulty secret realm.

After thinking for a while, she entered Infinite City and sent a message to Lu Ran.

Gu Qingyi: [When you explode the special crystal and plan to fuse it, tell me. I want to watch from the side.]

After saying that, she prepared to log off.

But who knew that Lu Ran replied immediately.

Passerby A: [It has already been revealed. I plan to integrate it today. Dr. Gu, do you want to come over? ]

Gu Qingyi: [? ]

[Have you passed the secret realm? How many times have you challenged it? What is your score? ]

Passerby A: [I passed it on the first try. Although my score was only S, which just reached the minimum drop standard for special crystals, I seemed to be very lucky... Not only did I get special crystals, but I also got an upgrade card.]

Gu Qingyi was stunned in the private room for a while, and was silent for a long time. Even she couldn't help but whispered to herself: "Damn it, what kind of luck is this."

You know, she spent half a month in the Abyss Secret Realm just to get a special crystal!

Lu Ran got an S rating this time?!

The comparison made me feel so uncomfortable.

It's just like the guaranteed winner seeing others draw a single product and sell it.

Gu Qingyi: [Where are you now? ]

Passerby A: [I will go back to Infinite City No. 3 later. ]

Gu Qingyi: [When you are ready to fuse your traits, contact me and I will take you to a public secret realm to fuse them. This way, after the fusion, you can immediately find a suitable opponent to test your strength.]

Passerby A: [Okay.]

…

In fact, in addition to Gu Qingyi, Lu Ran also received other private messages.

However, this private message made Lu Ran feel confused.

Pluto: [? ]

"You're giving me a fucking question mark." Lu Ran was puzzled.

But considering that he should maintain friendly relations with Pluto, Lu Ran smiled back.

Immediately afterwards, he had no intention of staying in Infinite City No. 5 for long and directly teleported back to Infinite City No. 3.

In addition, he took out a day's worth of food and a large cup of iced honey tea as a gift to Mr. Ha.

Lu Ran's attentive smile frightened Mr. Ha.

"Boss Ha, recover quickly. When you have recovered your energy, I will take you to fuse the special qualities! This can be called a 'small evolution'. Whether you can change your fate and surpass the divine beasts is the first and most crucial step!!"

Pets will evolve once at level 30, but the fusion of traits and awakening of attributes every 10 levels can also be called "small evolutions". After all, there is still a chance of increasing the racial level.

evolution----

Mr. Ha looked calm and patted Lu Ran with his dog paw, signaling Lu Ran not to worry.

Benha will not let you down! There is no failure in his dog life.

“You’re still pretending.” Lu Ran took the iced honey tea and drank it himself: “You’re not nervous, but I am. Let me have a sip of the 1982 iced honey tea to calm my nerves…”
