In fact, with Ran Swordfish's caracal wolf, plus Bai Zhu's hanging bamboo, and the limiting ability of the thorn cage itself.

Even without Li Changan's help, it shouldn't be a big problem to subdue its existence.

It's just that after his intervention, the process is relatively simple and relaxed.

As the "Imprisonment" proficiency of the Thorn Cage increased, the existence of the riot finally subsided.

"Alright."

Ran Swordfish waved his hand.

Whew—

The caracal wolf let out a low cry, relieving the spiritual restrictions imposed by the "Order" on the thorn cage.

Li Changan held the fence with one hand and pressed his temples that were constantly beating and protruding with the other, and asked:

"What's in there?"

"Spirit beasts."

Bai Zhu had a natural expression.

"Spirit beasts?"

Li Changan looked around.

There's a lot of space underground.

A spiral staircase goes straight up.

And in addition to the room that he had come out of before, which was considered an infirmary, there were many cages like the thorn cage fence in front of him.

At a glance, there are at least seven or eight.

Plus a few bottomless passages, and maybe a few cages in them.

It's all locked up with spirit beasts?

If only each one was as strong as the one that rioted just now.

It's more than a prison underground.

It's a ticking time bomb.

It is also a time bomb that can explode at any time, and the danger of detonation is extremely high.

"You ...... Not the Sheriff's Bureau? Li Changan asked hesitantly.

According to the memory of the original owner.

The Public Security Bureau is similar to the police station in the previous life, and is responsible for the security management of an area.

You can see it from this dungeon.

I'm afraid the Public Security Bureau can't control so many powerful spirit beasts, right?

"Hey, Sheriff's?"

Bai Zhu couldn't help but chuckle, and while teasing the naughty hanging bamboo, he picked up Li Changan's words.

Judging from her look and tone, she seemed to have a little contempt for the Sheriff's Bureau.

"Bamboo."

Seeing this, Ran Swordfish let out a low snort.

Bai Zhu stuck out his tongue and hurriedly put away his expression.

"Li Changan, why didn't you become a spirit master?" Ran Swordfish looked at Li Changan, who was sweating profusely and holding on to the fence, and asked.

"Soul Master.......

Li Changan's expression paused.

Become a Soul Master.

Easier said than done.

Not only do you need to have enough talent, but the quality of "soul" meets the minimum requirements.

There will also be a lot of resources.

Whether it is the purchase of domesticated spirit beasts, or the materials and materials that need to be consumed for the cultivation of spirit beasts in the future, it is a huge resource.

The original owner's talent is barely up to par.

However, his family conditions did not allow him to become a spiritual master.

His parents died more than twenty years ago, killed by a sudden plague of spirit beasts.

Fortunately, I was taken care of by my uncle and aunt and raised by him.

It was not easy for him to finish college, and it was impossible to have the money to buy a spirit beast for him and train him to become a spirit master.

Not to mention the spirit beast breeding after that.

So the original owner was quite rational and chose the history department related to spirit animals.

After graduation, he was valued by Professor Yan Fuchun and stayed in school as a teaching assistant.

If it goes well later.

You should be able to become a lecturer, or even a senior lecturer, and earn a good salary.

But by the time he could earn enough money to buy spirit beasts and cultivate spirit beasts, it was estimated that his age had already passed the best stage of growth for the spirit master.

Seeing Li Changan's expression, combined with the information she had investigated, Ran Swordfish almost understood.

Like the vast majority of people who don't make it to the Soul Master.

The appearance of the Soul Master seems to be glamorous, but in fact, there is a lot of danger.

Moreover, which spirit master didn't use a huge amount of resources?

"Do you want to be a spirit master?" Ran Swordfish suddenly asked again.

"Me?"

Li Changan was stunned.

This is to ...... Solicit yourself?

"I'm a little older, but I have a 'soul stigma', which can make up for some shortcomings." Bai Zhu rubbed his chin and interjected.

Li Changan twitched the corner of his mouth.

I don't know if I was praising him or hurting him.

"We can give you spirit beasts, and even give you some resources, as well as channels and ways to earn resources in the future. Of course, only if you need to join us. ”

Ran Swordfish began to throw an olive branch.

Just like Bai Zhu said.

Although Li Changan is a little older.

However, having the talent of "Soul Stigmata: Enhancement" can be ignored at a slightly older age.

The main thing is:

Li Changan's "Soul Stigmata: Enhancement" is somewhat special.

Not limited to strengthening one's own spirit beasts, it seems that even spirit beasts that don't belong to him can be strengthened.

That's a bit of an exaggeration.

Even if he's not a spirit master, he's a pretty good assistant.

And Ran Swordfish's mission is much more dangerous than that of the Security Bureau.

If you can get the blessing of a "help" with special abilities like Li Changan, many tasks will be much easier.

This is the reason why Ran Swordfish wants to recruit Li Changan.

"You ......"

Li Changan did not make a choice right away.

Seeing his hesitant appearance, Ran Jianyu smiled, put his scattered hair behind his ears, and said softly:

"As you said, we are not the Sheriff's Bureau. What it is, we have to wait for you to join us to know. Now you just need to know that the danger we need to face is much higher than that of the Sheriff's Bureau, which is a very dangerous department. ”

Department?

Very dangerous?

But Li Changan understood.

The higher the danger, the greater the special rights and interests that can be obtained, and the more resources that can be owned.

This is directly proportional.

Actually, he thought about it a lot.

Like what.

Who was the black-robed man last night, and was there any of the same party?

What exactly is the black leather manual in his head?

Even if the black-robed man is not in the same party, how should he deal with the same danger in the future?

Wait a minute.

The answer is finally reached.

He can't do it alone.

You need to rely on the power of others.

So.

When Ran Swordfish tested his ability, Li Changan did not refuse.

Not to mention what you want to get, at least you can make friends with spirit masters like Ran Swordfish and Bai Zhu.

A little better.

I hope to use the power of their organization to help me answer some questions.

But he wasn't stupid enough to fully show what he was capable of.

Li Changan, who has experience in two lifetimes, knows it very well.

If you want to gain a certain amount of favor and resource inclination, show your ability to be seen by others, and make others feel that you can invest, it is a must.

But if you throw all your abilities and hole cards out in one go, you are brainless.

His ability to adjust the efficiency value of the spirit beast should most likely not be the so-called "Soul Stigma".

But it doesn't matter.

As long as others think it is, it's fine.

But he didn't expect that Ran Swordfish would want to recruit him so simply.

even help him become a spirit master, provide him with spirit beasts, provide resources, and look like he wants to cultivate him.

"What do I have to give?"

Despite his heartbeat, Li Changan still held his breath and tried to get more information.

For Li Changan's calm temperament, Ran Jianyu admires it.

But she also just smiled and didn't give any explanation.

Instead, Bai Zhu next to him said:

"Don't be tempted, in short, our organization is just one sentence. We can manage what the Public Security Bureau can manage, and we can also manage what the Public Security Bureau can't. ”

Li Changan: "......"

Why is this so familiar?

Don't you add a sentence "cut first and then play, imperial concession"?

Took a deep breath.

How to choose?

In fact, the answer has been there for a long time.

"I'm joining." Li Changan said solemnly.

Ran Swordfish and Bai Zhu glanced at each other.

"Good. Bamboo, you take him to choose a spirit animal, and I go to get the contract and the contract. ”

Leaving these words, Ran Swordfish turned around and walked upstairs with the caracal wolf.

There is quite a bit of a shadow of a strong woman.

"You're welcome to join, Li Changan." Bai Zhu seemed to be in a good mood and said with a smile.

Let's talk about it.

She beckoned and led Li Changan towards a dark corridor he had seen before.

"You seem to be happy."

Li Changan looked at the enclosed surroundings, and the cold and humidity seeping out of the stone wall made him tense slightly.

"We're going to the Spiritual Library." Bai Zhu briefly explained.

Then he explained: "Of course I'm happy. As soon as you join, I'm not the weakest person on the team. ”

Li Changan was silent.

Judging from Bai Zhu's performance when she and Ran Swordfish dealt with the existence in the thorn cage just now, she and the "weak" could not match.

"Anyway...... What is our organization called? ”

"Quiet Meeting."

Bai Zhutou said without replying.

Tranquility will ...... Li Changan silently repeated it in his heart.

Quiet?

Is it the attribute of the spirit animal "quiet"?

As they spoke, the two walked through the slender corridor and came to the end of the corridor.

presented in front of you.

It was a heavy metal gate with a fist-sized grille on it, and the light from it was as golden as sunlight.

"You know the standard of the Soul Master's initial spirit beast, right?"

Bai Zhu, who had his palm on the door, suddenly turned around and asked.

"Hmm."

Li Changan nodded.

Although the original owner was unable to become a spirit master because of family conditions.

But for the spirit master and the spirit beast, I still have a certain understanding.

The essence of the spirit master, to describe it in the simplest terms, is a scale.

Call it the "spiritual balance".

At one end of the scale.

The soul of the spirit master is placed, and the people of this world are used to calling it "soul", and the power comes from the soul of the spirit master, and the quality of the "division" is the unit.

To measure whether a person has the potential to become a spirit master is to test whether the quality of their "soul" is up to standard.

Fortunately, Li Changan belongs to the class that barely meets the standard.

It is obvious that on the other side of the "spiritual scale" is naturally the "spirit" of the spirit animal.

That is, the essence of the spirit animal: if there is a "spirit", it is a beast.

Maintaining the balance of the "spiritual scale" is the lifelong homework of the spiritual master.

The balance here refers to the fact that the soul of the soul master firmly occupies the inclined end.

And once the "spiritual scales" are tilted in reverse.

Lightly.

Corrupted by the "spirit" of the spirit animal, it gradually loses its humanity.

Heavy.

Directly lose your mind and become a beast with a human appearance.

This is known as an "imbalance in the scale".

A "little white" like Li Changan, who has signed a contract with a spirit beast for the first time, would rather choose a spirit beast whose "spirit" quality is less than his own "soul" quality, and never try to get stuck.

Otherwise, it is possible that the strength of the spirit beast will be directly unbalanced as soon as the strength of the spirit beast is slightly improved.

"My 'soul' quality inspection is 9 divisions, and the maximum limit of the original spirit beast contract is the 'safety level highest' potential, and the strength does not exceed the 'safety level fifth order'." Li Changan said.

Spirit animals are divided into "Racial Potential" and "Strength".

The "racial potential" of people like the Caracal and the Black-Eyed Raven are all restricted.

The "racial potential" of psychic rats is of the upper level of safety.

And the hanging bamboo is a negative grade of special grade.

Safety level, negative level, restriction level and danger level, this is the system division of spirit beasts.

Add inferior, medium, superior, and special class to the racial potential of spirit animals.

And the addition of one order to the ninth order is the specific strength of the spirit beast.

"9 Divisions, Ah ......"

Bai Zhu had a sudden expression.

Bang –

The heavy metal gate was pushed open.

What catches your eye is a large mimicry area.

"Inside are all our spirit animals, which are more suitable for newcomers. Most of them are safety-level spirit beasts, so the danger is not high. It's not safe, and it's mostly domesticated, so you don't have to worry too much. ”

As he spoke, Bai Zhu playfully waved at him.

Look at her with a bit of schadenfreude on her face.

Why does Li Changan think that he is tired?

Roar!!!

As soon as I turned around.

The roar of the wind was so close that Li Changan could even smell the surging fishy smell.

appeared in front of the eyes.

It was a huge lion that looked to be about two people tall, with a golden mane with well-defined roots, fierce fangs peeking out of its mouth, and the most special thing was the eyes, two of which had pupils.

Heavy pupils!

The strong, powerful limbs were creeping and tense, and it seemed that they could rush at any moment.

The surging momentum, the undisguised contemptuous eyes, the fangs and sharp teeth that glowed with white light......

Li Changan was so surprised by this big guy that he froze directly in place.

"Heavy Provoke Lion?!"

Lost his voice.

[Name]: Heavy provocation lion

[Attribute]: Chaos

[Race Potential]: Medium Danger Level

[Race Skill]: Unknown

[Strength]: Unknown

[Introduction]: An extremely dangerous and vicious spirit beast with strong aggression. Perched deep in the jungle off the beaten track, the Born Dominant will not hesitate to attack any creature that comes close to his territory!

A spirit beast with medium potential danger?!

Are you kidding me?

Li Changan turned his head stiffly and slowly.

Where can you still see Bai Zhu's figure, only a closed metal gate remains.

"Huh?!"

But soon, Li Changan discovered that something was wrong.

Why did he see ...... on the lion's head

[Name]: Phantom Cat

[Endeavor]: 5

[Efficiency]: 65

"Phantom Cat?"

Bang!

As if to confirm Li Changan's words, the heavy provocation lion that was unusually powerful one second was wrapped in a hazy white mist the next second, and his body suddenly shrank.

When the white fog completely dissipated.

Instead, there is a black short-haired kitten.

Its fur was jet black and shiny, its ears were straight up, and its nose was like a small pom-pom.

The most eye-catching thing is undoubtedly its eyes, like two sparkling sapphires, sparkling with playfulness and cunning, mixed with a bit of doubt.

"Meow~~Meow~~"

The little black cat blinked and looked curiously at the man in front of her.

How did he see it?

Li Changan noticed that the end of the little guy's slender and slender tail was split into two.

Although it is well controlled, it can also be seen.

Immediately, from his memory, he "rummaged" through the information about the Phantom Cat.

[Name]: Phantom Cat

Attribute: Shadow

[Racial Potential]: Negative level inferior

[Race Skills]: Phantom, Stealing, Dancing Claw......

[Strength]: Unknown

[Introduction]: The cat spirit animal that plays with shadows is not too aggressive, but it is extremely good at using shadows to create its own advantages, and likes to play tricks on other creatures. Legend has it that the Shadow Cat has the bloodline of "Eight Songs", but it remains to be verified.

Li Changan reacted and shook his head helplessly.

Bai Zhu must have known that there was such a naughty phantom cat inside, and deliberately wanted to tease him.

Looking at the phantom cat squatting on the ground, wagging its tail and full of curiosity, Li Changan grinned.

"Little thing, curiosity kills cats, do you understand?"

"Meow?" The phantom cat's head hurriedly looked around, its furry ears shaking.

Someone wants to hurt Ben Meow?
