Chapter 6: The Last of Us
The sky was bright.
Luo He sat on the ground, examining the few new props in front of him, and fell into deep thought.
Here's what's going on.
My pet beast thinks I'm too weak and brought me back resources overnight?
"It turned out that the talent worked."
After some research, Luo He flipped through the diary and found the answer, and was extremely pleased, saying:
"Xiao Jiu, thank you for your hard work."
"Huh~"
The red panda shyly covered its face with its fat hands, stuck out its tongue, and couldn't stop grinning at the corners of its mouth.
I decided to continue practicing in my dreams tonight.
Strive to bring some good things back to the host!
Luo He smiled and reached out to stroke Xiao Jiu's plush head.
I have a better understanding of my talents.
The travel simulated by talent is similar to a dream, but the props and experience brought back are genuine.
Even if a red panda is injured during a trip, the injury is not fed back to the real world.
Still, the mental exhaustion remains.
At this time, it is necessary for Chef Luo to make delicious food to treat the little guy.
With the talent 'Travel Diary', Xiao Jiu can also train during the day and travel at night.
"It's too rolly."
Luo He shook his head.
If Xiao Jiu really worked so hard, I would have to come up with the ability to make soup and medicinal food.
After his first trip, the growth level of the nine-section wolf increased by one level, reaching level 7 of awakening.
The awakening period is at most ten levels, and after breaking through, he officially enters the transcendent realm.
Although Luo He said that "cooks don't need combat power", he was also happy to see Xiao Jiu's strength increase, because it symbolized its growth.
And with the blessing of talent, Xiao Jiu stepped into the extraordinary, but it was only a matter of time.
Xiao Jiu also brought back these three props: black truffle, arrow leaf bamboo, and killer honey.
The black truffle is known as the 'black diamond on the table'.
It is an excellent ingredient that can enhance the physical strength of the eater.
As a secondary resource, the energy value provided by the black truffle is greater than that of the red snake fruit.
Luo He carefully looked at the black truffle, sighed in admiration, and put it in the bag.
This can be used to make dishes and cultivate Xiao Jiu.
There are three main ways to cultivate pet animals: fighting, breeding, and training.
'Breeder' is a profession that breeds pet animals with the help of food, and it is similar to that of a chef.
Although he has not officially come into contact with the 'breeder', he also has the confidence to breed pet animals with cooking.
Cooking, it's much easier than fighting and training.
The arrow leaf bamboo brought back by Xiao Jiu is green and fresh, which can increase the speed of pet beasts.
It happened that Xiao Jiu's speed was slightly lacking, so Luo He asked him to take Jianye Bamboo as breakfast.
"嘤~(ノ)'ω ́(ヾ)"
The red panda rubbed his face.
I still prefer to eat the breakfast made by the host.
"It's just a snack."
Luo He smiled: "Later, on the way down the mountain, I will pick some wild mushrooms and then make you a mushroom feast." ”
The red panda opened its mouth blankly, with a tangled expression, and then shook its head.
I don't like to eat mushrooms.
After eating mushrooms, you will get dizzy and see elves dancing!
The red panda once ate poisonous mushrooms during an excessive hunger.
After that, even if you are hungry and faint, you will not actively eat mushrooms.
"Of course, poisonous mushrooms can't be eaten, but wild edible mushrooms are quite delicious."
Luo He tempted: "Some are more delicious than reed chicken." ”
"Huh?" The red panda looked at Luo He suspiciously.
"When it comes to picking wild mushrooms, you have to let the professionals do it."
Luo He smiled slightly: "Just watch me pick it." ”
Chef Luo often picks wild mushrooms by himself, and has consulted mountain people and botany professors for nearly a year to identify them.
Of course, this experience has to be adapted, and it has to be combined with the ranger's memory, and the case of fungus poisoning in the "Ranger Survival Guide".
To put it simply, whether it is toxic or non-toxic, Luo He can tell it at a glance.
In the end, the red panda still chose to believe in Luo He, and absentmindedly broke the arrow leaf bamboo.
You say this mushroom, can it really be delicious?
The last item that Xiao Jiu brought back was Killer Honey.
Just from the words in the diary, Luo He could feel the heart of the red panda, and his heart was moved.
Obviously, Xiao Jiu cares about himself.
Or maybe it's the honey-brushed reed chicken......
Luo He coughed lightly.
No matter what, he and Xiao Jiu are friends in trouble.
In the future, there will be blessings to share, difficulties to share, and reed chickens to eat together!
The first rays of sunlight in the early morning, spilling obliquely into the cave, Luo He got up and said:
"Xiao Jiu, it's time for us to go."
"Also, you can carry the bag of red snake fruit down the mountain."
Luo He's face was not red and his heart was not beating: "I can't carry it." ”
The red panda looked up blankly: "Huh? ”
You memorized it for a long time last night.
"Didn't I just remember you...... I mean, I've just got your training plan in place. ”
Luo He avoided the red panda's clear eyes and looked at the sky:
"It's the first part of training, uh, weight training, physical strength, yes."
Xiao Jiu suddenly realized and carried a heavy bag.
The host was really well thought out!
……
Donghuang Alliance, a third-level city, Cangcheng.
Cangcheng is located at the foot of the Yunling Mountains, and its economy mainly depends on the natural resources of the mountains, and the profession of forest ranger is abundant.
The featured pet animal is 'Canglan Eagle', a blue-feathered and clawed wind pet beast, which is a good helper for forest rangers.
President Liang of the Cangcheng Trainer Association is a senior trainer, and his signature pet beast is a commander-level Canglan Eagle.
In the office, President Liang was worried and said:
"Master Li, I believe you have heard about the 'Beast Tide' in the Yunling Mountain Range."
In non-safe areas, large-scale riots caused by man-made or force majeure are called 'animal tides'.
However, the Yunling Mountains have always been regarded as a safe area with controllable risks.
This beast tide has attracted the attention of the Donghuang Alliance, and a master-level trainer has been sent to investigate.
"What about the casualties?"
The voice is beautiful and has a touch of magnetism.
A tall, mixed-race beauty with a high ponytail hairstyle crosses her arms and asks for specific details.
The mixed-race beauty is named 'Li Wanqing', her cheeks are beautiful and refined, her nose is high, her coat is a capable windbreaker, and she has an outstanding temperament, and she is one of the youngest masters in the Donghuang Alliance.
"In total, three rangers have gone missing in this beast tide."
President Liang said: "The first two have been found, they ran in time and were not fatally injured, but there is still a ranger stationed in the mountains whose whereabouts are unknown. ”
"How's that ranger?" The half-breed beauty asked.
"He's a pretty good young man, well-versed in all aspects of the ranger business."
President Liang sighed lightly, "It's a pity that he is not a trainer and does not contract any pet beasts. ”
The implication is that there is more than good luck.
Li Wanqing bowed her head speechlessly, saying that she had understood the situation.
The priority was to find the ranger's whereabouts as quickly as possible.
"I'll start the rescue operation." Li Wanqing acted vigorously and took the initiative to propose.
"However, will this affect your investigation......"
"It won't be long."
Li Wanqing smiled gently, signaling to herself to rest assured, not negotiable:
"And it's much faster."
"Alright, then please, Master Li."
President Liang did not dare to slack off in his words, knowing that Master Li was approachable, but he had a great background.
She belongs to the 'Investigation Bureau' under the Donghuang Alliance Association, and is responsible for investigating secret realms, beast tides, and powerful pet beasts.
I have outstanding strength, and I have contracted a hegemon-level pet beast, and I am expected to become the youngest 'palace-level trainer' in the Donghuang Alliance.
However, Master Li is low-key, and it is said that her family background is also prominent, but no one has really seen her mention it.
Li Wanqing tapped the bracelet on her left wrist and said:
"Send me the ranger's information."
"Understood." President Liang immediately complied.
Li Wanqing glanced at the document.
Write down important information such as name, looks, age, etc., so that rescue can be carried out.
Luo He, with Zhou Zheng's facial features, and a sunny smile on the ID photo.
17 years old, two months before adulthood.
According to the resume, Luo He was adopted by the Cangcheng Welfare Institute since he was a child.
After completing compulsory education, he was recruited to work as a forest ranger to earn a living and become a well-received forest ranger.
To Li Wanqing's regret, this outstanding young man encountered this beast tide incident head-on.
The probability of survival is about equal to zero.
*
Half an hour later.
Yunling Mountains.
The mixed-race beauty crossed her arms and stood beside a noble and gorgeous overlord-level Qingfengluan, with a subtle expression on her face.
It's like using the professionalism of the training, forcibly pressing it, and being surprised like a ghost.
In front of her, there stood a handsome young man who was leisurely picking mushrooms with a small bamboo basket in his hand, and suddenly said:
"I see, you were sent by the association to save me!"
Li Wanqing looked at Luo He, was silent for a long time, and stopped talking several times.
But.
You're ...... Is there really a need for rescue?
……
