Whether the Iris family has money or not, it must be rich, but if you want to say how rich, there are really not too many. Otherwise, at the last auction, Baron Aureno would not have flinched in the face of the high price of 10,000, he was really shy and reluctant to take out so much money at once.

The other nobles have accumulated more than ten or even dozens of generations, and the disposable wealth is very large, and the Iris family is only the fourth generation in Aldington's generation.

So the lynx forest covers an area of 950 square kilometers, and in the end, after calculating the amount of taxes, the barons chose to lease 550 square kilometers and buy 400 square kilometers.

With this operation, the savings of the three generations of Butterfly Castle were squeezed out.

Aldington's fragmented land was also sold, and the area of four estates was exchanged with his parents in the lynx grove near the Parrot River, where the big cats had been hunted. It is equivalent to saying that he used two cooked land manors in exchange for four raw land manors, which is not a very loss.

But.

For the time being, he has no intention of planning for his four raw land manors, because the big cat Golden Clustered Eared Lynx imprisoned in Butterfly Castle has finally woken up from a coma.

Almost immediately, Aldington, who was practicing "Thunder Gun", sensed the awakening of the big cat.

"It's a very close feeling, the connection carved by the evil left, is it something like the existence of the 'Phantom Beast Contract'?" Aldington thought as he walked over to the cage.

In the cage, the big cat was weakly licking its scabbed wounds.

The small wounds have basically healed, and only three deep wounds with visible bones remain, which have just formed scabs and will take time to heal. In the cage, there is a basin for food, and inside is the fresh Warcraft meat that has just been delivered. But the big cat didn't eat a bite and turned a blind eye to the food bowl.

It seemed that it also sensed Aldington's arrival, and turned its head directly, staring at Aldington tightly with a fierce and complicated look.

Inexplicable.

Aldington felt the emotions of the big cat, which is a complex emotion that contains a mixture of emotions such as "anger", "apprehension", "hatred", "closeness" and "pain". Of course, the feeling is not very clear, more or less vague with itching across the boots.

"Hello, big cat." He smiled at the big cat and expressed his friendliness.

The big cat was still staring at him, motionless.

Aldington thought for a moment and said, "You're a phantom beast, you're smart, we've got a mystical connection, I can feel your emotions, and you should be able to feel my thoughts." So, you should understand the current situation, and from now on, you and I will fight side by side. ”

He pointed to the food bowl again: "This is the fresh Warcraft meat I sent to you, it's spotted water venison meat, I know this is your favorite Warcraft." ”

The Iris family has been neighbors with big cats for decades, and naturally has studied the habits of big cats, and knows that the big cat's favorite hunt is the low-level monster spotted sambar. But as the name suggests, the spotted sambar is always at the water's edge, and when it encounters danger, it hides in the river, leaving the big cats who can't do it helpless.

Hear the words.

The big cat didn't seem to want to respond, but it just so happened that its stomach suddenly growled, which made the big cat's complex emotions suddenly add a "shame" emotion.

Aldington kept smiling, exuding kindness and closeness.

After a while, the big cat looked down at the food bowl under the urging of his stomach over and over again, and the spotted water venison was not only cut into strips suitable for the mouth, but also sprinkled with a catnip grass, a specialty of the lynx forest. This catnip grass is the favorite "condiment" of the golden-eared lynx, and it is chewed when there is nothing to do.

"Goo."

The belly sounded again, this time completely destroying the big cat's resistance, and it finally lowered its head and began to bite a piece of piebald water venison from the food bowl.

After eating one, it tasted so fragrant that I simply devoured it.

Aldington has been standing on the edge of the cage, watching the big cat eat meat, and then activating the evil condensation supernatural power, you can see that the power of nature on the big cat quickly gathers, most of which are condensed around the three scabbed wounds, and through some mysterious energy transformation, the wounds are quickly repaired.

Perhaps the consumption of the second bloom was too great for it, and after eating the meat in the bowl, he didn't wait for Aldington to send another pot.

The big cat gradually squinted and fell asleep in the cage.

Taking advantage of its half-asleep state, he had the confidence of the connection carved by the evil left, and felt that the big cat had become comfortable and happy at the moment, he boldly reached over and touched the fur on the big cat's belly.

In a flash.

The big cat woke up from its half-slumber and turned its head to attack, but when it opened its mouth and was about to bite Aldington's arm, it stopped abruptly. It turned its head to stare at Aldington, its eyes full of aggression, but as Aldington withdrew its arm in fright, it quickly retracted the light in its eyes and continued to lie down and squint.

"Whew!"

Aldington let out a long breath and secretly said that he was too careless. Although with the blessing of the evil left, he has a close connection with the big cat, but after all, it can't be regarded as a real phantom beast contract, and such careless behavior will still anger the big cat and lead to threats.

But he soon burst into a smug smile.

The big cat didn't really attack, but just drove his hand away, proving that the evil left magic power is very effective, and taming the big cat to become his own phantom beast is just around the corner.

"Feed for two more days, cultivate a relationship with the big cat, and wait for the big cat to touch it casually, which is probably a sign of taming."

Different phantom beasts are tamed in different ways, but most of them are through cultivating feelings, so as to achieve a fit with phantom beasts, and slowly implicate each other with fighting spirit, so as to realize the phantom beast contract. Usually only a would-be Phantom Beast Knight will tame the Phantom Beast and complete the promotion through the contract process.

Others want to tame phantom beasts, and without the help of the contract, it is very difficult.

"Before, my father wanted to help me tame the big cat, he was a phantom beast knight, and he could reach a preliminary phantom beast contract with the big cat, and let the big cat obey. But I have a connection with the evil left, and I don't need my father to intervene...... I'll have to think of an excuse, well, I'd better push it up to the power of the thunder. ”

Think about it.

It just so happened that Baron Aureno also rushed back from the lynx forest, and the first thing he said was to ask: "The big cat is awake?" ”

"Well, wake up, I fed it once."

"Is the big cat emotionally stable, is it struggling in the cage?"

"The mood is stable at the moment." Aldington raised an eyebrow and said, "I also touched its belly, and the big cat didn't attack me. ”

"What! How dare you touch the belly of a big cat, Aldington, do you want to break an arm! After the baron scolded, he keenly grasped the crux of the matter, "You mean, you touched the belly of the big cat, and the big cat didn't attack you?" How is this possible, this is a wild phantom beast! ”

Aldington sincerely apologized: "Father, I admit that I have gambling elements, but the big cat approves of me. ”
