Chapter 279: Special Sparring Client
In all fairness, this special surprise prepared by the three little ones for Xu Ran is not so good that it can't be compared with the braised pork made by Xu Ran himself.
However, the moment he ate it in his mouth, Xu Ran felt something other than the taste of the food.
It was the condensation of the hearts and hard work of the three little ones.
After eating a plate of braised pork without any leftovers, Xu Ran slowly put down the plate, and then looked at the three little ones with complicated eyes, "You didn't sleep all night just to help me make a braised pork?" ”
"Cha!" (It was my idea!) )
Cancan raised his head proudly and began to take the initiative to ask for credit.
"You guy." Xu Ran knocked Cancan's head lightly and heavily, and then rubbed it hard, and hugged Ziyun and Xingchen's heads tightly.
It was only after a moment that he let go of the three little ones.
"Alright, you go out and wait, breakfast will be ready soon."
The three little ones glanced at each other, and then quickly left the preparation room.
After a night of busy and tossing, they have already felt their hunger at this moment, but fortunately, due to the different dietary structure, the aroma of braised pork cannot arouse their appetite, otherwise they are afraid that they will be more tormented.
Rao is like this, when they heard Xu Ran say that breakfast would come soon, they didn't dare to slack off, for fear that they would walk out of the preparation room later, which would affect Xu Ran's work and make their breakfast finish later.
In the preparation room, looking at the mess on the wall and on the table, Xu Ran shook his head and laughed, and then began to clean up neatly, and then methodically prepared breakfast for the three little and Han Dou Badger.
The three little ones worked hard to prepare food for themselves, and they should have added extra meals to their breakfast today.
After a while, with the crisp sound of the bell ringing throughout the foster area, the breakfast of the three little ones and the Han Fighting Badger was also placed in front of them.
Looking at the food that obviously showed signs of adding food, the three little ones glanced at each other, and their eyes were full of surprise.
Dry rice!
Seeing the three little ones eating sweetly, the smile on Xu Ran's face became a little thicker.
His gaze then turned to the Han Dou Badger on the side.
This is the third day that this somewhat special resident has moved in.
Compared with the previous two days, the Han Dou Badger at this moment is still a little rude, but the overall look is much calmer, and it seems that he has gradually become familiar with the rhythm and rules of life in the foster care area.
This is obviously a good thing.
Xu Ran couldn't help but think of the two staff members yesterday.
Xu Zhou and Zhou Rong have already returned to the association to fight for the termination of the contract for the Han Dou Badger, and I don't know if they succeeded.
Hopefully, the good news will come soon.
Silently muttering in his heart, Xu Ran waited patiently until the four pet beasts finished eating the food in the bowl, and then stepped forward to clean up the mess.
"Let's train later today, let's go upstairs and sleep first." Looking at the three little ones who were subconsciously going to the training area, Xu Ran said softly, "Pay attention to rest." ”
"Meow~" (good~)
Ziyun nodded as good as a stream.
It has always been lazy and has not slept all night, and has just had a full meal, and it does have some sleepiness at the moment.
Immediately afterwards, Cancan also nodded quickly in agreement.
As the initiator and actual operator of this operation, it is also very hard! Need to take a break!
Even Xingchen, who has always been the most involuted of the three little ones, rarely agreed to Xu Ran's proposal and chose to sleep for a while.
Looking at the three little ones who took the elevator back to the thirteenth floor together, Xu Ran smiled dumbly, and then walked down the floor to prepare for business.
Maybe today is indeed a lucky day, not long after opening the store, Xu Ran waited for the two staff members who were still chattering before.
Looking at the relaxed smiles on Xu Zhou and Zhou Rong's faces, Xu Ran knew that the matter of the Han Fighting Badger should have had a good result.
"Boss Xu, it's early!" Xu Zhou smiled and waved his hand at Xu Ran, and then got straight to the point, "The association agreed." ”
"Although the process was a bit tortuous, the result was good." Zhou Rong also had a smile on his face.
As he said before, Kangcheng still has some connections in the Beast Master Association.
The suggestion that the association should step in to get Cannes and the Badgers to break the contract was not surprisingly met with opposition from these members of the association, who had a good relationship with Cannes.
Fortunately, as a staff member of the association, when Zhou Rong came to the Xinghuo foster care store yesterday, he brought a law enforcement recorder with him, and it faithfully recorded everything.
After Zhou Rong took out the ironclad evidence that Kangcheng was not good for Han Dou Badger, even those who tried to defend Kangcheng couldn't help but be silent.
So, the bill was finally passed.
"Now that the association has passed, when will the contract between Cannes and the Badger be terminated?" Xu Ran asked curiously.
It is much more difficult to break the contract between the Beastmaster and the pet beast than to conclude a contract.
The conclusion of the Beast Pact only requires the consent of both parties.
The termination of the contract requires a special and cumbersome termination ceremony and requires some specific materials.
All of this is in the hands of the Beast Master Association.
Therefore, the termination of the contract can only be done through the Beast Master's Association.
"Anytime." Xu Zhou quickly replied, "Actually, when we came over this time, in addition to telling Boss Xu the good news, we came to take away the Han Dou Badger temporarily." ”
"Wait until its contract with Cannes is officially terminated, and we'll send it back." Zhou Rong added on the side.
"The foster care environment of the Spark Foster Care Store has also been recognized by the association, and from now on, the association will officially entrust the Fighting Badger to the Spark Foster Care Store."
"Okay, no problem." Xu Ran nodded without hesitation, "I have already asked for the opinion of the Han Dou Badger yesterday, and it is willing to continue to live here after the contract is terminated." ”
"If I were it, I would too." Zhou Rong made a little joke, and then, under the leadership of Xu Ran, walked towards the foster care area on the second floor with Xu Zhou.
Knowing that Zhou Rong and Xu Zhou came this time to take it to terminate the contract, Han Dou Badger also looked forward to it.
It cooperated with the two staff members out of the storefront, and then glanced back reluctantly at the Spark foster care store.
When the contract is officially terminated, it will come back!
The two of them walked to an open space near the Xinghuo foster care store, and then Zhou Rong raised his hand to summon a giant eagle with a wingspan of about ten meters, and took Xu Zhou and the Han Dou Badger towards the direction of the Demon Wood City Beast Master Association.
In the swiftness of the giant eagle, after a few breaths, the guild had already appeared in front of them.
"Let's go, let's go in." Glancing at the time, Zhou Rong's expression became a little more serious, "Kangcheng has already arrived at the association." ”
"Tsk~"
The silly expression on the face of the Han Dou Badger gradually faded at this moment, and was replaced by a hint of human worry.
Facing the beast master who is about to break the contract with him, it is indeed not a happy thing for it.
The two of them walked to the door of a special venue room of the association, and before they could enter the door, they heard the angry voice coming from inside the door.
"Why? The pet beast that has already contracted with me, the association will cancel it when it says it will be terminated? ”
Hearing this voice, the two of them made a concerted effort to prepare for the progress.
It is clear that Cannes is resistant to the association's decision-making.
There was a faint sound of enlightenment and persuasion from the staff inside the door, but the other party's efforts did not have the desired effect.
Cannes' voice was still angry.
"I eat and drink well every day, why am I not good for the Han Fighting Badger? It's been tricked, and I said there was something wrong with that store! ”
"Instead of checking that store, you're going to force me to break the contract?"
Hearing this, the Han Dou Badger, who was standing outside the door, lowered his head in silence, and his original good mood seemed to be swept away at this moment.
And Xu Zhou and Zhou Rong's expressions also became a little uncomfortable.
"Humph! Unrepentant! Xu Zhou snorted and opened the door directly.
Inside the door, Kangcheng, who was confronting the staff, and his face was flushed with anger, also appeared in front of them.
Kang Cheng, who heard the movement, subconsciously turned his head, and after seeing the Han Dou Badger standing outside the door, he instantly came to his senses, he walked quickly to the Han Dou Badger, and said loudly, "Han Dou Badger, do you say that I am not good to you?" ”
"Pet beast food, all kinds of resources, which one is not you want me to give it to you?"
"Where can you find a beast master like me?"
"Tell them that you were tricked and didn't want to break the contract at all, did you?"
Looking at Kangcheng, whose expression was quite earnest, with a bit of flattery, Han Dou Badger took a small step back in silence.
Noticing the movements of the Han Fighting Badger, Kangcheng's expression stiffened slightly.
"It wants you to give it?" Xu Zhou on the side couldn't help but snort lowly, "Then may I ask, does the Han Fighting Badger have any resources?" ”
"Nope." Kang Cheng subconsciously shook his head, and then quickly defended himself, "It didn't ask me for resources, how can this be blamed on me?" As long as it finds me, I will definitely find a way to give it to it. ”
"Ridiculous!" Zhou Rong's face on the side sank, "Excessively publicize your kindness to the Han Dou Badger, and never forget to remind the Han Dou Badger to repay, such a high-pressure and suffocating environment is the real reason why the Han Dou Badger doesn't want to ask you for any resources." ”
"The pet beast is the root of the strength of the beast master, and it is the obligation of the beast master to improve the pet beast and provide the resources needed for the pet beast, this is not your favor to the Han Dou Badger, let alone the reason for you to try to oppress the Han Dou Badger!"
"If this is your attitude towards the Han Dou Badger, then you are not worthy of being its beast master, and the association's decision to terminate the contract will never change!"
"You..." Hearing Zhou Rong's scolding, Kang Cheng's expression changed slightly, "Anyway, I don't care, I will never agree to terminate the contract!" ”
"As long as I don't agree, the ceremony of terminating the contract can't be carried out, right?"
Hearing Kangcheng's words, the eyes of the staff present were a little more strange.
"Maybe it's because the ritual of breaking the contract is used too little and is relatively unpopular, and many people don't know about it." Xu Zhou suddenly smiled, "So before the ceremony, I need to do some popular science with you." ”
"To terminate the contract, you don't need the consent of both the pet beast and the beast master." Looking at Kangcheng's rapidly changing expression, Xu Zhou said quietly, "Only one party needs to agree, combined with a specific ceremony, to complete the lift." ”
"Nope! You can't do that! Knowing that the contract did not require his own consent, Kangcheng was struck by lightning, and the last trace of confidence was completely dispersed, and strong resistance and anger appeared in his eyes, "This is my pet beast!" ”
"But it was entrusted to you by the association, and you didn't do your duty." Zhou Rong spoke in a deep voice, and then gave his colleagues a look.
Xu Zhou and the staff member who was already in the room quickly stepped forward, grabbed Kangcheng, who was struggling hard, and pressed him to the side of the ceremony table.
"Come with me." Zhou Rong looked at the Han Dou Badger, and his voice softened a little, "Come over here." ”
Under Zhou Rong's instructions, Han Dou Badger walked to the other side of the ceremony platform step by step.
"Badger!" Kang Cheng's expression was slightly hideous, and there was a little more pleading and flattering in his voice, "Come home with me, okay?" ”
"I'll be better to you in the future, give me a chance, okay?"
Hearing Kangcheng's words, there was a trace of hesitation and struggle on the face of the Han Dou Badger.
Noticing the change in Han Dou Badger's expression, Zhou Rong sighed slightly in his heart, but still stopped preparing to preside over the ceremony, and looked at Han Dou Badger, "Make a decision." ”
"Is it to break the contract with Cannes, and the association will entrust the Spark Foster Care Store to take care of you in the future, or keep the contract with Cannes and continue to be a contractual partner with Cannes."
Han Dou Badger's mind quickly came to mind the comfort and carefree life in the Spark foster care store, and then thought of the dull depression that lingered in his heart day after day after day after the contract with Cannes.
It doesn't seem like a difficult choice to make.
The Han Dou Badger's eyes became firm again, and it nodded heavily in the direction of Zhou Rong.
"Tsk~"
This contract, it must be broken today!
Knowing what Han Dou Badger meant, the last trace of anticipation in Kangcheng's eyes dissipated, and he was silent, as if anger and hatred were brewing in his eyes.
Understanding the meaning of the Han Dou Badger, Zhou Rong breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then did not hesitate to launch the ceremony on the stage.
A burst of special light rose from the center of the ceremony platform, like a long knife slashing between the Han Dou Badger and Cannes, severing the invisible contract.
At this moment, both Han Dou Badger and Kangcheng felt that the contract between them was like snow in the warm sun, quickly melting away.
Kangcheng's strength quickly fell at this moment.
The termination of the contract with the Han Dou Badger means that he has less power to feed back from a pet beast.
On the other hand, the Han Dou Badger, at the moment when the contract was severed, a strong advanced light suddenly appeared on its body.
The next moment, in full view of everyone, the size of the Han Dou Badger began to grow rapidly, and at the same time, its aura continued to rise, from the elite level to the level of the commander level.
It is an extremely excellent pet beast in the elite class, and before the contract with Cannes, it has reached the level of consummation of the elite level, and it has eaten so many good things in the Xinghuo foster care store in the past few days.
At this moment, with the release of the contract, the shackles that constrained its growth were also lifted.
Unexpectedly, it is reasonable that the Han Fighting Badger advanced to the leadership level.
And this also means that it is even more impossible for Cannes to make a contract with the Han Dou Badger again.
"The contract is terminated." Seeing the Han Dou Badger, who had advanced to the commander level, the smile on Xu Zhou's face was very bright, and he patted the Han Dou Badger's head affectionately, "Break through as soon as it is lifted, it seems that Boss Xu has fed you good things!" ”
"Tsk~"
Although its strength has increased greatly, the Han Dou Badger still has that somewhat silly expression, and when it heard Xu Zhou's words, it nodded thoughtfully.
That's not your average good thing.
It has grown so big, and it has eaten the best food, which is probably the food it has eaten in the Spark boarding store in the past two or three days.
"Cannes, you can go back." Dissipating the remaining power on the ceremony platform, Zhou Rong looked at Kangcheng, who had always remained silent, and spoke in a deep voice.
Without speaking, Cannes got up from the ground and left the ceremony room without saying a word.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Rong's brows furrowed slightly.
If the other party scolds a few words, he will probably put his mind at ease.
At this moment, seeing the completely different performance of Kangcheng and before the termination of the contract, he had an inexplicable bad premonition in his heart.
Could it be that this guy will make trouble with Boss Xu?
Thinking of this, Zhou Rong was dumbfounded.
Boss Xu is a general-level beast master, how could he be threatened by an elite-level beast master who only has one pet beast left?
However, when sending Han Dou Badger back, I still mentioned it to Boss Xu and asked him to pay attention to it.
"Han Dou Badger will stay in the association for a while, and I will finish the next procedures and then send you back." Dropping a sentence, Zhou Rong turned around and left the ceremony room.
"Brother Xu, I'll also withdraw first." Another staff member waved his hand at Xu Zhou with a smile, "The Han Fighting Badger will be handed over to you." ”
"Okay, you go get busy." Xu Zhou watched the other party leave, and then patted the badger's shoulder, "It's boring enough here, let's go around in the association?" ”
"Tsk~"
Han Dou Badger nodded, a look of anticipation and nostalgia appeared in his eyes.
During the fall of the first Beastmaster, and before the contract with Cannes, it was cared for by the Beastmaster's Guild and lived within the Beastmaster's Guild.
Because of its natural good character, the Han Dou Badger is quite popular in the association, and he likes to go around the association on weekdays, and many staff members have an impression of it.
Speaking of which, it hasn't come to the association for a long time since it made a contract with Cannes.
Xu Zhou quickly summoned the magic star, walked out of the ritual room with the Han Dou Badger, and wandered around the association.
With the assistance of the magic star, this person's communication was unhindered, and the Han Dou Badger also quickly diluted the empty feeling in his heart after the contract was terminated just now in his past memories and Xu Zhou's words.
Soon, one person and one pet came to the foster care area in the Beast Master Association.
These foster care areas are not as fully functional as foster care stores, but are only used as emergency situations in some special situations.
For example, the Han Dou Badger, who lost the beast master at the beginning, temporarily lived here.
And now, there are still a few pet animals in the foster care area.
"You should know that money flower, it lived in before you, and it hasn't found a suitable beast master yet." Xu Zhou introduced the Han Dou Badger with a few treasures, "This is the rattan turtle, this is the chain water dragon, this is..."
Under his brief introduction, the Han Dou Badger also had a preliminary impression of the faces of the foster care area.
It swaggered in and took the initiative to communicate with these pet animals who had to be temporarily housed here for various reasons.
And Xu Zhou didn't bother them, leaning against the door quietly, listening to the translation that the magic star fed back to him.
But soon, listening to Han Dou Badger's words, his expression gradually became a little strange.
——
On the other side, in the Xinghuo foster care store, Xu Ran's happy mood for the Han Dou Badger was quickly diluted by the busy business that quickly poured in after the start of business.
Today is destined to be another busy day.
After washing and caring for the four Beastmaster guests in succession and receiving a lot of praise, the fifth guest walked into the store.
"Welcome~Come!"
Xu Ran got up with a smile and looked at the guest in front of him.
This is a teenager who looks a little young, it seems that he is not yet an adult, and the expression of this teenager at this moment is extremely depressed, and it can even be described as loveless.
Behind him, a pet beast that looked like a mushroom stood.
With a big mushroom head on its head, the eyes of this pet beast are extraordinarily sharp, vaguely sharp, and its slightly slender body has four protrusions like bean sprouts, which are its hands and feet.
Earth system collar race, healing mushroom.
While instantly recognizing this pet beast, Xu Ran's mind also had its corresponding situation.
The healing mushroom is a very good healing type of pet animal.
Under normal circumstances, having more than one healing skill can be considered a healing type of pet beast.
While the healing mushroom itself has four two-star skills, all four two-star skills are healing skills, and only one one-star skill, Vine Slash, is an attack-type skill.
It is, so to speak, a natural healer.
While these messages flashed in his mind, Xu Ran had a trademark smile on his face, "Hello, are you here to wash and care?" ”
"Uh... I'll talk about washing and care later. To Xu Ran's surprise, the young man shook his head without hesitation, and then explained his intention, "I'm here in the hope that you can help me conduct special training on the healing spirit mushroom." ”
"You mean... Sparring? Xu Ran had a little more surprise on his face.
Up to now, the business in the store is basically cleaning and care, and there is only one badger in foster care, and as for sparring, no one has ever cared about it.
Unexpectedly, there were guests who came to the door to ask for sparring.
But after only a moment's pause, the smile on Xu Ran's face became richer.
Sparring is good!
After all, the resource corresponding to sparring is skill points.
This is very important for the three little ones.
If this business is done well, maybe you can use this to open the sparring market in Demon Wood City and get a lot of skill points.
"No problem, wrap it up on me!" Thinking of this, Xu Ran patted his chest without hesitation, "Let's talk as we walk." ”
He guided the boy and the healing mushroom into the elevator, casually pressed the corresponding floor of the earth training area, and then asked casually.
"What skills are you going to give the healing mushroom special training? Cure spores? Calm the spores? Rapid healing? Or is it the healing of the earth? ”
"Uh... Neither. ”
Hearing Xu Ran casually say the four healing type skills of the healing spirit mushroom, the young man's face was a little more expectant, but when he thought of something, this expectation quickly disappeared, and was replaced by a muffled voice like resignation, "Training vine slash." ”
"Huh?" Xu Ran turned his head to look at the young man, the expression on his face was quite surprised, "Vine slash?" ”
"Goo~"
Before the young man could speak, a healing mushroom that did not speak quickly nodded in response, its slightly sharp eyes lit up with a bit of excitement, and at the same time, a pair of bean sprout-like hands continued to slash in the air, like a knife man.
Xu Ran: "..."
He hadn't felt anything before, but now he suddenly felt that it was not so normal for the pair of beast masters and pet beasts in front of him to designate one.
Then I thought that the first guest who washed and cared for it was to ask his wild transcendent creature friends to wash and care, and the first guest who fostered himself was to foster his own Han Dou Badger...
Xu Ran rubbed his eyebrows.
The business development of Demon Wood City does not seem to be particularly smooth.
"Why Fuji Chop?" Xu Ran couldn't help but ask, "Is it because the other four skills have all reached the waning moon level and can't continue to improve?" ”
"On the contrary..."Hearing Xu Ran's words, the young man's expression became even more strange, "My Healing Spirit Mushroom, the other four skills are all star chip level, and they are also star chip level with almost no proficiency. ”
"Instead, it's the vine chop... It has already been promoted to the Starlight level a long time ago, and it may be trained for a while, and it will be at the Wanyue level, right? ”
Hearing the young man's words, Xu Ran realized more and more clearly that there must be something strange about the pair of beast masters and pet beasts in front of him.
"Ding~"
With a crisp electric bell, the elevator stopped.
The floor where the soil training area is located has arrived.
As the elevator door opened, the towering mountains and vast world in the training area surprised one person and one pet unexpectedly.
"No wonder Tutu asked me to try it here, your store is really unusual!" The boy couldn't help but exclaim.
Was Li Tutu introduced?
Xu Ran knew it in his heart.
However, at this moment, there are more important things he needs to know than these details.
"Your healing mushroom, what's going on?"
From the simple exchange just now, Xu Ran could vaguely see that although the young man said that he wanted to let the Yue Ling Mushroom train the vine slash, he himself was reluctant to do so.
Instead, it's the healing mushroom... It seems to be quite concerned about this.
"As you can see, my healing mushroom it..."The young man's voice paused, as if he was considering what adjectives to use to describe his pet beast, and finally held back a sentence, "Very ideal." ”
"As a healing pet, it wants to be more useful in battle."
"It wants to specialize in combat?" Xu Ran understood now, and the eyes that looked at the Yue Ling Mushroom became strange.
It is not impossible to heal a type of pet beast to take care of combat, provided that there are at least a few high-level combat skills.
A pet beast like the Healing Spirit Mushroom wants to take care of the battle, so it's too difficult.
"Then why did you even let it train Fuji Chop? This shouldn't be your intention, right? Xu Ran looked at the young man and asked again.
The young man's expression became more and more sad and angry.
"Because it doesn't want to train any skills except for the vine chop!"
"The only thing I can do now is to quickly let it train the vine slash to the waning moon level, and wait until the vine slash can no longer improve, then I can force it to train other skills!"
Xu Ran: "..."
"Force me to cultivate immortals, right"
Pushing a friend's book, the abstract school cultivates immortals, the thinking is strange, and the painting style is perverted.
I'm so pitiful and helpless, so kind and weak, they want to kill me? I was forced to slaughter them all over the place!
