The Starfire Foster Care Store not only has excellent cleaning and care services, but also amazing news of foster care services and sparring services, which spread out on this night and made a small wave in Demon Wood City.

It's a pity that Xu Ran has completed the stage task, and he can no longer show the popularity of the Demon Wood City Spark Foster Care Shop, otherwise he will find that the popularity of the Spark Foster Care Store has exceeded fifty percent, and it is still climbing at a very fast speed.

And all this fermentation was revealed on the second day.

Before the Spark foster care store opened, it was already full of admiring customers.

Unlike before, these customers are no longer only for washing, but also for foster care and sparring services.

They stood on the street in the morning light, whispering to each other, and from time to time they looked at the closed door of the Spark foster care shop, hoping to see the young but mysterious foster shop owner sooner.

It's just that they are doomed to disappointment.

Because in the store door that everyone was waiting for, it was not Xu Ran who walked out, but a new unfamiliar face.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Spark Foster Care Store~" The newly promoted system store manager spoke loudly in a straight and round announcer tone, "I am the acting manager of the foster care store, and today's business has officially begun!" ”

Although there was a hint of strangeness in the other party's tone, everyone was not in the mood to care about this issue at the moment.

They just want to know where Boss Xu has gone.

For a while, the voices asking about Boss Xu's situation came and went outside the store.

"The boss has something to go out, and I and two other clerks will serve you wholeheartedly today." The manager of the system smiled and pointed to the two clerks behind him.

"We're all here for Boss Xu's craftsmanship, he's not here, do you also have such a level?" A guest couldn't help but complain, "If I knew this, then I wouldn't have come to the queue today." ”

"Yes, yes, Boss Xu is not here, then I'll come tomorrow."

"I..."

Many guests couldn't help but make a noise, and after seeing the change of the host of the foster care store, they retreated in their hearts.

"Please rest assured, since the boss handed over the store to us, he naturally thinks that we have enough capacity to maintain the store." The manager of the system spoke loudly, and then glanced at a clerk behind him.

The system clerk nodded slightly, stepped forward and said quietly, "It's all here, why don't you try it?" ”

For some reason, after hearing the clerk say the words "Come and come", the idea of leaving in everyone's hearts suddenly shook a little.

yes, it's all here, why don't you try it?

The guest who had just said that he was going to leave was not so determined at this time.

The system manager secretly gave the clerk a thumbs up before speaking.

"Everyone, please come in, from today onwards, Xinghuo Foster Care Store will have 24-hour cleaning and care services, and other services will be expanded accordingly."

"We will provide the best service to every guest!"

Wow~

Hearing that the service of Xinghuo Foster Care Store has been improved and expanded, the eyes of the guests quickly lit up with excitement.

This time, they didn't care about the replacement of the foster care store, and they flocked in one by one.

Seeing this, the system manager snapped his fingers.

"Let's go!"

——

On the other side, Boss Xu, who was in the hearts of the guests, was already wearing a casual costume and taking three small ones, and arrived at the gate of Demon Wood City, which was low compared to other second-level towns.

Whether it is Xu Ran, who is sitting on the back of the stars and looks calm and relaxed, or Ziyun and Cancan, who are also staying on the back of the stars, or Xingchen who is carrying this person's second favorite, his eyes are full of curiosity and expectation.

Because, today they will go on a short trip without a destination, visit as many wild and transcendent creatures as possible within the Demon Wood Domain, and take a good look at their neighbors for the first time after almost ten days in the Demon Wood Domain.

This idea was not thought up by Xu Ran patting his head early in the morning.

In fact, on the first day he came to the Demon Wood Domain, when he overlooked the Demon Wood Domain, which was obviously much more peaceful and harmonious than the rest of the Beast Domain, he already had this idea in his heart.

However, he used to mainly run a storefront, although he came out once on the way, looking for the thunder dragon stone found by the Cancan expedition, but the purpose was too strong, and he also missed a lot of scenery on the way.

It's not easy now... No, it was very easy to complete the popularity task of the Demon Wood Domain Spark Foster Care Store, and with three new system clerks to maintain the operation of the new store, Xu Ran could also take a break for a while and do something other than opening the store.

Although it was still early morning at the moment, the gate of Demon Wood City was not deserted, and a large number of beast masters and ordinary people went out of the city through the city gate in an orderly manner, and at the same time, many wild and extraordinary creatures outside the city came in groups.

Although more wild and transcendent creatures like to enter the city from the Demon Wood Market, there are also many wild transcendent creatures whose destinations are not the bazaar, but other places in the city, and at this time, the city gate is also a good choice.

After taking a look, Xu Ran quickly took the three little ones to stand behind the crowd out of the city.

It's just that before he could get out of the city, he was recognized.

"Whew?"

The earth raccoon patriarch who had just entered the city stood next to Xu Ran and the three little ones, his head tilted, and he made an inquiring expression.

It entered the city today to go to the Xinghuo foster care store to find Xu Ran, please do something, but as soon as it entered the city, it unexpectedly found the person it was looking for.

"Huh? Raccoon Patriarch, you're there too. Xu Ran smiled and waved his hand, looking at the slightly strange look in the other party's eyes, he suddenly had a feeling of being found at work, "Today I am ready to go out of the city, and the store will be handed over to the employees." ”

"Wow!"

The Earth Raccoon Patriarch nodded knowingly.

That's what happened.

However, does the Spark foster care store have employees? I haven't seen it before.

Forget it, it's important to get down to business.

"Lu~"

The earth raccoon patriarch stretched out a hand to stop Xu Ran, who was about to leave the city, and then made a series of sounds, cooperating with gestures and movements, and communicated with Xu Ran.

"Uh... Celebration? Festival? Invite? ”

After some guessing, Xu Ran finally had an accurate insight into what the other party meant.

"Today, the Raccoons and other other-worldly races in the vicinity are going to hold a ceremony for the new members of their clan, and they want to invite me to it?"

"Wow!"

The Earth Raccoon Patriarch nodded heavily, a slight smile on his face.

It is more difficult for wild beings to reproduce than ordinary creatures, and it is for this reason that for the social race of transcendent creatures, every new member of the group is very important.

Every year, the Raccoons join several friendly races in the neighborhood to celebrate the newborn members of their group, not only as a ceremony to celebrate the newborn, but also as a bridge of friendship between the different races.

Now, seeing that this year's celebration is about to begin, the earth raccoon patriarch suddenly thought of Xu Ran.

This is one of the few human beings who can be recognized by it.

Therefore, it wanted to try to invite Xu Ran to see if the other party was willing to go to the appointment.

Originally, the raccoon patriarch was worried that his invitation would affect Xu Ran's operation of his store, but now it seems that at least this worry can be avoided.

"Is it such a coincidence?" Xu Ran's face was also a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I was free, I just caught up with the other party's celebration.

According to the ground raccoon, in addition to the earth raccoon and the earth rock rat, the two races that Xu Ran is already familiar with, there are many races that he has not dealt with before.

This also made Xu Ran instantly interested in a lot.

and the three little ones glanced at each other, and the tacit understanding of one person and three pets quickly reached a consensus.

Check it out!

"In that case, let's go and have a look." Xu Ran smiled and said, "Thank you for the invitation, but..."

His voice changed slightly, "You'll have to wait for me a bit, I need to go back and get something." ”

If you are invited to participate in someone's celebration, you can't come to the door empty-handed, at least bring the guy who eats.

It's not dishes, it's toiletries.

The celebration described by the Earth Raccoon Patriarch had some similarities with Xu Ran's impression of the baptism of a newborn, and in this case, he might be able to make what he was good at come in handy in the process.

It should be regarded as a thank you to these people who have invited them.

Incidentally...

You can also go back to the store to see how well customers are accepting the three new staff.

Thinking of the three new clerks in the same style as their predecessors, Xu Ran's expression suddenly became a little more strange.

"Lu~"

The Earth Raccoon Patriarch nodded slightly, indicating that there was no problem.

Although it didn't know what Xu Ran was going to take, it had plenty of patience, after all, the celebration was still not short before it began.

Looking at Xu Ran's departing back, the Earth Raccoon Patriarch thought for a moment and walked towards the small market near the city gate.

Before Xu Ran came back, buy some human candy and snacks at the market, these things, these things are very fond of these races.

Especially the one with nuts.

On the other side, under the rapid speed of Xingchen, Xu Ran quickly arrived at Xinghuo Foster Care Shop.

Looking at the orderly long queue at the entrance of the store, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

It seems that he is not there, but the three new clerks still maintain the order of the store very well.

And Xu Ran's appearance also made the customers queuing at the entrance of the store a little excited.

"Boss Xu is back, are you here to maintain the store?" One of the guests couldn't help but ask.

Although the agent manager just now assured that their service would not be inferior to Xu Ran, in the hearts of these customers who have not yet tried it, it is obvious that Xu Ran is the most reliable.

Hearing this, the other guests also cast expectant glances.

"Uh, I'm sorry." Facing the expectations of the guests, Xu Ran coughed lightly and clenched his fist slightly towards them, "I have other things to do today, and the operation of the store will be handed over to the three employees." ”

"However, their service is no different from mine, you can rest assured that you can choose and trust our Spark Foster Care Store." Xu Ran spoke sincerely, and at the same time nodded towards the system store manager who walked out of the voice.

With Xu Ran saying this in person, everyone trusted Fang Cai's words a little more.

Although it is still regrettable that it is not Xu Ran who serves their pet beasts today, the guests are also very reasonable.

Since Boss Xu has something to do, let him go and take care of his own affairs.

Well... If the guests knew that Xu Ran's so-called "something" was to go out of the city to play, then I am afraid their minds would also change a little.

After calming the emotions of the guests, Xu Ran motioned for the three little ones to wait at the door, and then walked quickly into the storefront.

"Hello boss." The acting store manager smiled respectfully at Xu Ran, and then cast a puzzled look.

Didn't you say they were in charge of today's business? How did the boss come back?

"I'll go out with a spare set of toiletries." Xu Ran explained, and then waved his hand to the acting manager, "You go to the sparring area to get busy with yours, there should be a lot of sparring business today." ”

After continuing to Qingzhou City and Cloud City, the third system store manager of Demon Wood City, who is mainly responsible for sparring partners.

In this way, the content of the three store managers is different, and the resources provided by the three stores to Xu Ran can complement each other to a certain extent and achieve a balance.

After all, the store manager of the system only collects 20% of all the revenues, and provides much more resources to Xu Ran than the store clerk who is 55 percent of the revenue.

"It's true that there are a lot of guests for sparring today." Hearing Xu Ran's words, the system manager turned around and said goodbye, no longer caring about Xu Ran's movements.

walked straight into the washing room, and said hello to the "Come to the Come" clerk who was in charge of the washing and care, and Xu Ran quickly found a set of spare toiletries.

Unlike the previous on-site preparation of toiletries for different pet animal races, this set of toiletries is a special style common to all pet animal races.

Because it is universal, the washing and care effect is not as tailor-made as possible, but there are Xu Ran's washing and care techniques, and it will not be too bad.

It is more than enough to wash and care for the newborns.

Packing the things he needed in a small box, Xu Ran walked out of the store again, waved goodbye to the reluctant customers at the door of the store, and then quickly disappeared in place under the gallop of the stars.

When he came to the city gate again where the Earth Raccoon Patriarch was meeting, he happened to see the Earth Raccoon Patriarch coming back with a sack bigger than his body on his shoulder.

"Let's go." Xu Ran, who guessed the contents from the label on the sack, smiled and thoughtfully proposed, "There are so many things, let Cancan help later." ”

"Cha~" (No problem!) ）

The pocket-sized version of Cancan, who was sitting on Xingchen's back, glanced at the sack, which was several times larger than its current size, and waved his paw without any pressure.

There was no other delay, one person and three pets went out of the city side by side with the land raccoon patriarch, and after walking out of the city gate for a distance, Cancan jumped off the back of Xingchen, and his body changed, quickly changing from a small size to a length of tens of meters.

Although the body shape has not completely returned to its original state, such a body shape has already made Cancan quite satisfied.

It shook its head excitedly, then grabbed the sack in the hands of the Earth Raccoon Patriarch, threw it behind its back, and then motioned to the Earth Raccoon Chief, Xu Ran and the other two little ones to hurry up.

Out of the city, it's its splendid world!

"Sigh~" (Sure enough, my original hunch was right.) ）

The stars hissed and shook their heads helplessly.

After Cancan's latent soil skill was upgraded to three stars, and it became a swimming soil pond that could lead people, it had a hunch that the younger position of the mount in its team was threatened.

Now, that hunch has come true.

In some special circumstances, Cancan is indeed more suitable than it is to carry everyone.

"Let's go." Xu Ran smiled, "Cancan, don't dive too deep, we can take a look at the scenery." ”

"Cha~" (Understood!) ）

Cancan twitched his head, and when everyone came up, an earthy halo flashed around it.

The next moment, its massive body began to sink slowly.

Instead of completely sinking under the earth, Chanchan only sank the lower part of his limbs and scale shell into the soil, exposing the head and the upper part of the scale shell.

In this way, everyone sitting on the scale can see the scenery around them normally.

"Lu~"

In the eyes of the earth raccoon patriarch, a little envy appeared.

It can be seen that although the effect of the skill that Cancan casts at this moment is similar to that of the subsoil, it is definitely a higher-level skill than the subsoil.

The submerged soil can only allow the earth-based pet beast itself to sneak into the ground, and it can't carry too many things, like the sack that the raccoon carried just now, it can't go underground with it.

But Cancan's skill can be done, and he can even lead people.

If you also master this skill, it will be much more convenient on weekdays.

Of course, it can only be thought about.

After all, not everyone can upgrade the skills of pet beasts like Xu Ran, ordinary transcendent creatures can only be possible if they fight when they evolve.

"Cha!" (Let's go!) ）

After stabilizing his body height, Cancan shouted and began to set off at full speed towards the location where the celebration was held under the guidance of the Earth Raccoon Patriarch.

Although it was full speed, Cancan's speed was obviously not comparable to Xingchen, but this was a good thing for Xu Ran and the other two little ones.

After all, they were planning to take a closer look at the situation in the Demon Wood Domain.

Walk slower and see more clearly.

It just so happened that there was a local guide like the ground raccoon by his side.

As the Demon Wood City got farther and farther behind him, Xu Ran, who had entered the deeper part of the Demon Wood Domain, also saw the Sky Xuanmu that was gradually enlarging in his line of sight.

This is probably the largest of all the transcendent creatures Xu Ran has ever seen.

It is so big that it is beyond Xu Ran's understanding of transcendent creatures.

Rising tens of thousands of meters above its thick trunk, its lush canopy grows horizontally, spreading for dozens of kilometers, as if to hold up the entire sky, and countless branches fall to the ground, digging into the dirt and turning into new branches.

On the body of the Motian Xuanmu, you can also see some wild and extraordinary creatures moving in the forest.

The word "forest of solitary trees" has become a reality in the body of Motian Xuanmu.

Even if you use mustard seed Sumeru to expand your body to the largest Cancan, and compete in front of the skyscraper Xuanmu, there is still a big gap.

"Cha~" (It's really big...) ）

While Cancan was amazed, a little expectation appeared on his face.

His body shape will be greatly improved with each advancement.

A few more promotions, will it be this big, or even bigger than it?

When the time comes, press it down with one claw, and any opponent will be a little scum, right?

Thinking of this, Cancan's eyes couldn't help but be a little more imaginative.

And Xu Ran's expression was also full of amazement, he turned his head to look at the Earth Raccoon Patriarch on the side, "Has this Beast Emperor's size always been so big?" ”

"Lu~"

The Earth Raccoon Patriarch thought for a moment, then shook his head and gestured in the air.

"Until now, it's expanding every year?" Hearing the ground raccoon's answer, Xu Ran couldn't help but be speechless.

This beast emperor is still not satisfied with his current size?

It's still expanding and stretching its body.

Could it be that you want your body to cover the entire Demon Wood Domain?

Thinking of this, Xu Ran couldn't help grinning.

If this is the case, the size of the Beast Emperor will have to expand dozens of times, to say the least.

That's an exaggeration.

"Lu~"

Different from Xu Ran's exclamation, there was a trace of worry and loss in the eyes of the Earth Raccoon Patriarch.

"What's wrong?" Sensing the other party's emotions, Xu Ran couldn't help but ask, "Is there any side effect from the expansion of the Beast Emperor's body?" ”

Hearing this, the ground raccoon hesitated slightly, and then gestured again.

Combined with the change in tone of the "purr", Xu Ran quickly understood what it was about to say.

The Beast Emperor's huge size is not without side effects.

When the Earth Raccoon Patriarch first came to the Demon Wood Domain, the Demon Wood Domain had just been built, and the Ferris Xuanmu at that time was no more than a thousand meters tall, and although it was huge, it was far from being as exaggerated as it is now.

At that time, the Motian Xuanmu was able to respond to the demands of every transcendent creature in the Demon Wood Domain.

The Earth Raccoon Patriarch knew very well that the Earth Raccoon Clan who came out of this place at that time was very grateful for the protection of Motian Xuanmu, so he would give a part of the resources and other items collected to each other every day.

Each time, the other party will divide a branch, and at the same time accept these gifts, give something of equal value to the ground raccoon group as a thank you.

When the Earth Raccoon Clan is in trouble, they seek the help of Motian Xuanmu, and they can always be solved as quickly as possible.

However, as the size of the Motian Genki gradually expanded, all this gradually changed.

Motian Xuanmu, the frequency of responding to the calls of other living beings began to decrease.

In the past, I would get a response every time, but I would respond only once several times, and in the end, I could barely get a response.

The Earth Raccoon Patriarch, who has experienced this change throughout the whole process, knows very well that this is not because Motian Xuanmu is unwilling to respond to sentient beings and help sentient beings.

It's that it can't do it.

Obviously, this is the price of the expansion of the size of the skyscraper.

The huge body makes its perception of the outside world dull.

And now, Motian Xuanmu can't even maintain the birth of Xuanmu Dew, which is born naturally on weekdays.

If the expansion continues, the final outcome of the Ferris Xuanmu may be...

"Cha..." (It's scary.) ）

Cancan couldn't help but shrink his head.

If that's the price to get bigger, then it's never going to get bigger!

"You won't be like that." Xu Ran gently touched its head and comforted, "Motian Xuanmu forcibly expanded his body to an exaggerated level that his own strength could not cover, so it became like this. ”

"Your size increases, and it naturally increases with your growth level, which is your original body type, so there will be no such problems."

"Cha~" (That's good.) ）

Cancan breathed a sigh of relief, and his face was a little more happy.

It also thought that if it continued to grow, it would become like a skyscraper.

After pacifying Cancan, Xu Ran turned his head to look at the Earth Raccoon Patriarch.

The question of Motian Xuanmu, he has already understood it in combination with his knowledge of tree-like transcendent creatures and the description of ground raccoons.

However, there is another very important issue.

"Motian Xuanmu himself, can't he feel that something is wrong with him?" Xu Ran asked in confusion, "If it wants to, it should be able to control its body to stop expanding, or even shrink it back to its original size, right?" ”

"Uhhhh

Hearing Xu Ran's inquiry, the eyes of the Earth Raccoon Patriarch dimmed a little.

Naturally, they thought of this question.

About a few decades ago, when the Motian Xuanmu was still able to occasionally respond to everyone, the countless transcendent races in the Demon Wood Domain who found the Motian Xuanmu strange gathered and had an exchange on the problem of the Motian Xuanmu.

In the end, representatives of various races were sent to call for Motian Xuanmu together.

They tried to dissuade the Motian Genki from continuing to expand its body.

At that time, the Raccoon Patriarch was not the patriarch of the group, but he happened to be the representative sent by the Raccoon Clan.

It experienced that scene firsthand, and it still remembers it vividly.

Motian Xuanmu, responded to them.

Its attitude is still friendly, but it is very resolute in the face of persuasion from representatives of various races.

It is impossible to stop the act of expansion.

It was naturally impossible for the representatives of the race at that time to be persuaded to retreat by such a simple response from the Beast Emperor Motian Xuanmu.

After all, their stable life at the moment relies on the skyscraper.

If something goes wrong with the Moonwood, their lives may not be stable anymore.

Whether they are worried about the Sky Tree or their own selfishness, they need to do their best to get the Sky Sky Tree to give up the idea of expansion.

In the end, under the persuasion of the representatives, the Raccoon Patriarch saw the angry Motian Xuanmu for the first time.

With just one wave of a branch, it knocked back tens of thousands of meters from all the representatives of the race at that time, including several beast kings, and if it weren't for the mercy of his subordinates, the Earth Raccoon Patriarch had no doubt that just this stroke would be enough to kill them on the spot.

And as Motian Xuanmu withdrew his branches and ignored the representatives, the persuasion of gathering all the wild transcendent creature races in the Demon Wood Domain at that time finally came to an end.

"Didn't Motian Xuanmu say anything at the time?" Xu Ran couldn't help but ask.

Motian Xuanmu's words and deeds looked a little abnormal.

It knew that such a forcible expansion of its body would lead to its gradual dullness, and that it might eventually lose its mind and become an exaggerated corpse, but it still had to walk on this path.

Even, even the voice of dissuasion could not be listened to.

This is obviously not like what an emperor-level transcendent creature with a normal mind and intelligence not inferior to a human should do.

Therefore, there must be some hidden secrets in this matter.

Maybe the Beast Emperor deliberately didn't mention it, or maybe the ground raccoon ignored it.

"Whew?"

What did the Beast Emperor say?

A look of memory and contemplation appeared on the face of the ground raccoon.

Soon, it lit up.

Motian Xuanmu responds to everyone on weekdays only with the movement of branches, and there is no language.

But when the delegates were dispersed that day, it seemed to vaguely feel a transmission of ideas.

"Born to die... Order..."
