This is the first-order demonic beast it once defeated, and as a trophy, it has stored it in the kennel.

Out of the desire to save its life, it took it out without hesitation.

Because these crystal nuclei are no different from the stones next to them.

Therefore, these crystal nuclei, which can be sold for two or three and a half gold coins in the human store, were generously given away by the Black Devil Dog King.

Looking at these crystal nuclei, Gu Zheng seemed to have some thoughts flashing through his mind.

In this huge dark forest, isn't it too lonely to live alone with a lonely snake?

And because of the racial characteristics of the promotion period, there is no one to guard in the process of evolution, and now it is okay in the low-level forest, but if the level is high in the future, it is surrounded by enemies, and if it is two or three months of sleep, how can you ensure your own safety?

At this time, if you can take one or two younger brothers and temporarily take them with you as Dharma protectors, it seems that you don't have so many worries, right?

Thinking of this, Gu Zheng slowly slid towards the location of these crystal nuclei, circling around the side of this small pile of crystal nuclei, and at the same time gave an order that he had just come up with to Xiao Wangshu in the sea of divine consciousness.

'Take your contract down a notch, make a simplified version of the master-servant contract like the summoner of this world, and take it out and sign it with the black devil dog on the other side. ’

In this way, when I am promoted to a second-order demonic beast, I don't have to worry about being swallowed by my own heaven and earth. ’

For this, the heart of Xiao Wangshu is refusal, but its actions are cooperative.

It didn't dare to reiterate to Gu Zheng how advanced its contract was, it could only contain grievances, and the contract that should have been signed with the world's most subordinate and great resentment human beings was transformed into a low-level version of the small world master-servant contract that Gu Zheng needed now.

Looking at the contract that appeared in front of him like parchment, Gu Zheng expressed great satisfaction.

He took the paper that suddenly appeared in his mouth, turned his head and turned to the location of the black devil dog.

At the place where the contractor stamped, he nodded with the head of the snake, stuck out his tongue at the big dog opposite, and waited for the other party's answer.

The Black Devil Dog is at a loss for this kind of beast language that has never communicated with each other, and acts entirely on guesswork.

It snorted and poked the dog's head out, and sniffed at the contract.

Gu Zheng, who was anxious, didn't bother to continue to explain, the moment the Black Devil Dog lowered his head, it shot out like a spring, the fangs were withdrawn, the fangs stretched out, and with a click, two small holes were bitten out on the wet nose of the Black Devil Dog.

The painful black devil dog took a step back and sat down in the turf of the black grassland.

A splash of blood fell right on top of the parchment, where the contractor was supposed to sign.

The most amazing thing is that after this drop of black blood was stained with this paper, it seemed to be absorbed by this paper, and the red blood disappeared without a trace in an instant.

And in the place where the contractor signed, there was a small puppy that belonged to the appearance of the black devil dog, as if it was involved with the huge black devil dog leader opposite, so that the big dog on the opposite side who was already squatting in the grass forgot to bark, and suddenly became stunned, with a slightly dazed expression.

From this moment on, the master-servant contract drafted by Xiao Wangshu was officially completed.

Gu Zheng, who had already slipped off the dog's nose, only needed one thought to be able to move the black devil dog sitting opposite.

Similarly, the joys, sorrows, and sorrows of the Black Devil Dog who became his first contract beast can now be felt by Gu Zheng now.

'Oh, that's pretty good. ’

'Let's try it first, Black Devil Dog, see that you are all black, and you will be called Little Black from now on.' ’

'From now on, I will be your master, your master's surname is Gu Mingzheng, you are my dog, naturally you have to be Gu Hei. ’

"I am very satisfied with the Warcraft crystal nucleus you have tributed, master, I am going to absorb and evolve now, you are the leader of this piece, do you know what safe place I can advance safely and quietly?"

Gu Zheng's thoughts were just in his mind, as his contract beast, the leader of the Black Devil Dog could figure it all out.

Probably thinking of a very good place, this black devil dog that had become extremely docile squirmed towards Gu Zheng twice, and then prostrate himself, this is to carry his master forward.

And Gu Zheng is really used to being a landlord and a wealthy person, he unceremoniously climbed onto the backbone of the black devil dog, and when he was about to ride the mount comfortably, he saw that behind the tip of his tail, he swayed and followed a fat puppy.

Isn't this a puppy cub for the Black Devil Dog?

Is this to ride with him King Gu?

Before Gu Zheng could figure it out, the Black Devil Dog who had already set his identity right...... Fearing that his little son would anger the owner who is now like a big demon king, he hurriedly arched his nose and pushed the little milk dog to the head when the little fat dog was about to climb up.

The little black dog that has not yet evolved into a monster has been wronged for a while, and he is the weakest one in a litter of puppies, and he has been taken care of by the dogs since he was a child.

Gu Zheng, who could see the fluff control, was a little weak at that time, and after giving the black devil dog an order that he could go together, he slid his body to the location where the big dog's head was.

As a demon king who pulls the wind, let the dog's back or something be given to the cubs who are still feeding.

It's majestic enough to sit on the dog's head.

For Gu Zheng's decision, the Black Devil Dog was grateful.

It no longer cares about how strange it is at this time, and the mighty image it erected earlier.

With a coiled snake in front and a milk dog in the back, with this strange combination, they crossed the territory of most of the other first-order demonic beasts in the black grassland, and came to the safe and huge kennel belonging to the black devil dog.

As it approached, more and more black dogs emerged from the shelter, where the dog's hole was mostly built in the middle of the mound.

As if greeting their leader, they shouted in the direction where the leader of the black devil dog was running.

It's a pity that the dogs with excellent eyesight, after seeing the image of their patriarch, seemed to have been choked by the dog's neck, and the bark split instantly.

Whew, wooh?

It's just a matter of taking this puppy, what about that nearly four-meter-long worm with a terrifying aura?

This is definitely not the prey, the hissing tongue shows that the snake is alive.

It's a pity that the leader of the black devil dog, who has never really been enlightened, can't explain it, it just shook its back, and after shaking the little milk dog off the top, it rushed straight to the deepest place of the group with Gu Zheng.

There, there is a mound that looks like a small hillside.

There is a large hole in the middle of the mound.

When Gu Zheng entered the entrance of the cave under the leadership of the leader of the Black Devil Dog, he found that this was actually a naturally formed stone cave with an extremely large space.

The stone in the stone cave is very strange, and it actually has the effect of warm jade.

Because there are sparse vents inside the cave, although the cave is a little dark, it is absolutely warm and comfortable.

This is indeed a good place for advancement, when Gu Zheng spread the crystal nuclei coiled in his belly into the cave, the black devil dog who received Gu Zheng's instructions walked out of the cave very obediently, lying outside with his tongue out, taking care of the home for him, and doing the work that the Dharma protector should do.

With plenty of food and energy, it's time to take your rank up a little more.

Thinking of this, Gu Zheng opened his bloody mouth, sent these crystal nuclei into the mouth of the snake one by one, and bit the crystal nuclei one by one.

Streams of abundant energy spread out along Gu Zheng's stomach, tearing at his muscles and bones, and the rest were all heading towards the black magic crystal formed in his skull.

I don't know how long it has been since this process, Gu Zheng is like drinking too much wine, sometimes sober, sometimes confused.

When all the heat in his body subsided, a cool feeling rushed straight to his forehead, and the tiny magic crystal made a clicking and reshaping sound, Gu Zheng swished, and opened his vertical pupils that he seemed to have not opened for a long time.

A long-lost hissing sound also came out of Gu Zheng's throat, and as he clicked and swung his stiff head a few times, his waist straightened up, and bang!

What the situation.

Gu Zheng, who only felt a huge pain in his head, looked in the direction of the top of his head, only to find that the top of the cave, which was originally quite high for him, had become narrow because of his six molts and the promotion of the demonic beast.

Gu Zheng was originally only three or four meters long, but after being promoted this time, he suddenly drew more than half the length.

Gu Zheng, who stood up again, reached an extension of three and a half meters in height.

And his length has exceeded six meters, and according to the judgment of snakes in reality, he can be regarded as the length of a small python.

In addition, his originally slender body suddenly became the thickness of a human forearm in the double bonus of molting and promotion, making his originally slender small scales like black sesame seeds all become willow leaves.

A black, shiny mutated black demon snake has become a unique existence in this dark forest.

Gu Zheng, who discovered his gratifying changes, didn't care about the sharp pain on the top of his head, and slipped out of the hole that belonged to the leader of the black devil dog first.

As soon as Gu Zheng's snake head poked out of the cave, the leader of the Black Devil Dog, who had been crawling outside the cave for nearly a month, was the first to feel Gu Zheng's changes.

It first barked twice, suppressing the agitation caused by Gu Zheng's appearance in the group, and then took the initiative to come to Gu Zheng's side, waiting for the next order of this strange snake owner.

'Come with me. ’

'This kind of low-level territory is not suitable for you and me, follow me, and your Black Devil Dog family will have the possibility of being promoted to a higher bloodline. ’

'So, your decision?'

"Woohoo!!"

Needless to say, looking at the firmness in the eyes of the big dog, Gu Zheng understood the other party's choice.

During the period of more than a month of Dharma protector guarding, this leader was actually ready to wander the world with Gu Zheng.

Ever since it had signed a master-servant contract with Gu Zheng, the big dog had understood that it was impossible for his own clan to let a demonic beast that was subject to people as their leader.

Its final destination is probably going to be on the body of that magical black demon snake.

Therefore, the original leader at this time was quite decisive.

Even if Gu Zheng is so huge now, he still loyally carries the other party on his body.

Evenings in the Black Forest can be very oppressive for many monsters.

And today, for the Black Devil Dog Family, the overlord in the Black Prairie, this depression is especially serious.

A total of twenty-nine black devil dogs in the whole clan sent off the strongest patriarch in the clan today.

From now on, the most promising demon dogs in the Black Devil dog family will embark on a completely different evolutionary path from them.

A group of tearful dogs sent off their leader.

Their inner entanglement and relief are so obvious.

God knows how terrible the coercion unleashed by this black snake's evolutionary path was.

It's like a kind of suppression in the blood, so that their whole dog pack is trembling to survive.

Your puppy will sometimes be overwhelmed by this high and low pressure.

The Black Devil Dog family doesn't want their offspring to be as timid as the Rabbit family.

The resentment of this group of dogs is no longer known to Gu Zheng and Gu Hei, who have gone deep into the next area.

All they knew was that the more they went deeper into the dark forest, the more difficult it became.

After passing through the black steppe, there is an area of shrubland covered with low vegetation.

Because there are many magic plants that can enter potions here, and the terrain characteristics are extremely complex, it has also become a place for some very powerful mercenary groups.

Every time the climate is relatively stable in spring and autumn, there will always be some large teams with good skills who will collect the materials they need in this thorny place.

If it weren't for Gu Zheng's ability to laugh and forget books and the Black Devil Dog's sensitive sense of smell, which is different from ordinary people.

Only he, a relatively weak combination of snake and dog, is afraid that he will become the trophy of those big teams like the lone demonic beast in this black thorn.

No, they had to venture deeper into the Black Abyss, where streams were everywhere and deep pools were there, and they would have more hope of survival.

Originally, Gu Zheng's strategy was quite successful.

They carefully avoided most of the dangers, but when they were about to walk out of the black thorns, the black magic berries in the area they set foot on were actually large and ripe.

The ripening pattern of this berry is very strange, because its law is that there is no law.

It may mature in three months and in one quarter, or it may not bear fruit for more than ten years.

It was as if the ripening of the little poor berry on each of its branches depended on the mood of the vegetation, and it was cloudy and sunny.

It just so happens that because of this characteristic, this fruit is particularly rare.

Coupled with the fact that this is one of the main potions necessary for an intermediate sober potion, this black magic berry fruit has become the most valuable potion in this area.

You say, can the ripeness of this berry not attract the attention of the surrounding mercenary groups?

'Hiss'

Gu Zheng, who also had a human sense of smell, asked a very rich and sweet taste the moment the black magic berry beside him ripened.

This flavor is nearly 100 times stronger than ordinary raspberry strawberries.

And this fragrance can be carried by the wind to nearly a kilometer away.

Because of this weird characteristic, Gu Zheng subconsciously pulled the little black beside him, a snake and a dog, and plunged into this black magic berry.

Because the moment he smelled it, the surrounding demonic beasts and humans also smelled it.

On Gu Zheng's map, four or five different red and yellow dots rose in an instant, moving towards his location.

The only one of them must be the Warcraft, and the two teams that emerged from two directions, needless to say, must belong to the human race.

No matter which one it is, it is not something that Gu Zheng can resist now.

Gu Zheng, who has already been given dumplings, can only hide temporarily.

He instructed Blackie to minimize his presence as much as possible, using a cluster of huge bushes with barbs as a temporary shelter, and peeking through the gaps in them to peek out into the movement.

'Rustle......rustle'

The first to come to this bush were the Demon Wind Wolves, probably because of the characteristics of the race, and there were as many as seven or eight of them in this small group.

This kind of berry has great medicinal value for ordinary humans, and in the same way, the magic beasts eat it in their mouths and also have the effect of purifying the soul and improving purity.

So once the taste of the black magic berry is discovered, it is impossible for this pack of wolves to let go.

No, the wolves, who were supposed to tear the meat, hissed at a pile of berries covered with barbs.

But the wolves' clumsy feeding had not been long before they were forced to stop by a force from afar that was greater than their own.

The fruity aroma of this Berry Thorn Forest, which was not far from the Black Abyss region, attracted the more high-level Demonic Beasts in the area where the 3rd-4th order Demonic Beasts were located.

A small turtle with a shimmering earthy yellow glow crawled ashore from a shallow beach on the edge.

It doesn't pick a head, and every fruit that its slow calves pass through enters its mouth.

This is a third-order high-level carapace turtle, although there is only one, but because of its hard shell, it is not afraid of the group of demonic wind wolves that are full of fangs and extremely fast.
