"Huh?" (So, that human beastmaster claims to have mastered an evolutionary route that is more powerful than the Nightmare Kite?) ）

Although the twelve words that were forced to tell the situation were full of vague meanings, the Nightmare Beastmaster, who was almost demonic, distilled the most crucial information in an instant.

The first thought that came to its mind was absurd and implausible.

As the de facto controller of Beast Domain No. 97 today, the Nightmare Beastmaster is not only active in his own Beast Domain, it has also traveled to other nearby Beast King Beast Domains, and even to the nearby Beast Emperor Beast Domain.

And it travels in search of the evolutionary route of the velvet finch.

For wild transcendent creatures, especially those with outstanding intelligence, exchanging evolutionary routes mastered by the same race in other beast realms is a very effective way to improve their own evolutionary routes.

If you encounter a group of velvet finches that have also evolved into the Nightmare Kite, it can compare the differences in the evolutionary routes of the two races and further optimize the evolutionary routes of its own race.

It is a great joy to encounter a group of velvet finches with different evolutionary types, which can allow the group to have more evolutionary options and generate more possibilities.

After traveling through the surrounding beast domains, and after many comparisons, the Nightmare Beastmaster finally came to the conclusion that for now, the Nightmare Kite was still the strongest evolved form of the Velvet Finch Clan.

In this case, how could it believe that the daughter suddenly told it that there was a stronger evolutionary route, and that the source of the news was actually just a human kid living in a third-level town?

"Huh~" (I think, you were deceived by that human.) ）

The Nightmare Beast King spoke in a deep voice, and the original perception of Xu Ran in his heart that was not bad took a sharp turn at this moment.

Twelve, who was still vague and didn't want his father to know the exact situation, became dissatisfied for a moment when he heard his words.

"Chirp!" (Xu Rancai is not a liar!) ）

The Nightmare Beastmaster looked at the twelve stubborn eyes and sighed in his heart.

"Huh~" (He is a human kid from a third-level town, and he probably knows little about evolution, how can he master such an evolutionary route?) ）

"Chirp!" (But Ziyun, Xingchen, and Canchan all successfully evolved according to the evolution route he gave!) ）

"Huh?" (You're talking about his three pet beasts?) ）

Hearing this, the Nightmare Beastmaster was slightly stunned.

After being reminded by Twelve, it also vaguely had the impression that when it saw each other before, the other party's three pet beasts had indeed completed their evolution.

This is also relatively rare among third-level towns.

Could it be that this human really has some evolutionary routes, including the Velvet Sparrow?

At this moment, the Nightmare Beastmaster's original suspicions were slightly shaken.

Soon, though, as if thinking of something, it shook its head again.

"Huh~" (They may be a pet beast race that humans have mastered the evolutionary route, but the velvet finches are not.) ）

The Nightmare Beast King, who has traveled through the Beast Emperor-level Beast Domain, has seen the appearance of a second-level town.

It knew that compared to the weak human cities of the Beast Domain No. 97, which could bring about destruction with the Beastmaster's move, the second-level important town was almost unshakable.

There are more powerful beast masters there, as well as some things that are not available in level 3 towns.

That is part of the evolutionary route of pet beasts that humans have tried for generations.

With these evolutionary routes, powerful beast masters in the second-level important towns have appeared frequently.

And the Nightmare Beastmaster, who wants to find and complete the evolutionary route for the Velvet Sparrows, also did not miss the evolutionary route mastered by humans.

It relied on ambushing the human beast master and using super-energy methods to search for the opponent's memory, and it was basically certain that the human race had not mastered the evolutionary route of the velvet finch.

Even if there were, it was a very crude and weak evolutionary route.

Xu Ran was able to make the three pet beasts evolve successfully, which was special in the No. 97 Beast Domain, but it was only so in the second-level important town.

If he had a way to get in touch with the second-tier town, he might not be able to do it.

Therefore, it is not too convincing to prove that the other party has a more powerful evolutionary type of the velvet finch.

Looking at his daughter's still stubborn gaze, the Nightmare Beastmaster froze.

"Huh~" (Is there anything more specific about the evolutionary route that the human kid gave you?) ）

The daughter was searching for resources, indicating that the human had given it at least some information.

It wants to judge the authenticity of this evolutionary route, so that its daughter will completely die.

This may be difficult for other wild and transcendent creatures, but for the Nightmare Beastmaster, it is not difficult.

Because, it once tried to attack the imperial race.

Although it failed in the end, it still captured some murmuring in the process of impacting that new level of life.

This is the biggest secret hidden behind the wild transcendent creatures.

In each process of evolution, they will catch the strange murmur, which is full of messy and huge information, about the ultimate secret of the evolution of life.

As long as you can catch a trace of the secret of your own race, you will have a chance to soar.

Although there were no rules or regulations, the idea of burying this secret in their hearts, from the knowledge of other beings, was like a steel seal of thought imprinted in their minds when they first heard this chaotic murmur.

And such whispers will not appear in the evolution of pet beasts.

The Nightmare Beastmaster's breakthrough failed, but its luck was surprisingly good, and the trace of secrecy it captured happened to be closely related to the nature of evolution.

This gives it a deep understanding of evolution.

As long as Twelve was able to tell more specific information, it could easily find contradictions and mistakes in the evolutionary line, thus proving that this was nothing more than the casual nonsense of that human kid.

Seeing that his father was still full of disbelief, Twelve's stubborn temper came up at once.

Now that he has let his father deduce the truth of the facts, he simply let him know that the beast master he has chosen is anything but ordinary!

"Chirp!" (This evolutionary route is...) ）

Without much hesitation, Twelve breathed out the content of the evolutionary route of the velvet finch to evolve into a deep sleeping bird.

As the twelve words fell, the audience fell into an eerie silence.

For the first time, the Nightmare Beastmaster's expression changed significantly.

This evolutionary route, in its opinion, is so absurd.

Having the Dominion Race upgrade all their skills to three stars before they evolve is like a dream.

In the knowledge it had learned from that mysterious whisper, only the Holy Spirit Race could raise its four-star skills to five-star.

And it's not a pure ascension, but the integration of all innate skills into the wheel of life, and the essence is different.

Skill star upgrading is a characteristic of evolution, how can it be done before evolution?

But just as the Nightmare Beastmaster wanted to refute this evolutionary route and tell his daughter that there was something absolutely wrong with it, it was silent again.

Because other than that, this evolutionary route makes it completely impossible to find fault with it, and it can even be said to be so perfect that it is amazed.

Whether it is the combination of evolution materials or the setting of evolution rituals, there is an impeccable feeling.

This made it a little trance for a while, and there was a feeling in its heart that if it could really evolve completely according to this evolutionary route, the evolutionary type called the Deep Sleeping Bird would be extraordinary.

It took a deep look at the smug Twelve in front of it, and then spoke slowly.

"Huh?" (How do you get to 3 stars before you evolve?) ）

"Chirp" (Xu Ran has a way!) ）

The smug look in Twelve's eyes became a little stronger.

What Daddy doesn't know, Xu Ran can do it, it turns out that Xu Ran is still powerful!

Does that human kid have a way?

The Nightmare Beastmaster's eyes flashed.

Its first reaction was, of course, disbelief.

But after Twelve came up with the evolutionary route of the Deep Sleeping Bird, its attitude towards Xu Ran also quietly underwent some changes.

The other party does not seem to be simple.

In that case, maybe you really have such a method?

With a thought, the Nightmare Beastmaster flapped his wings, wrapped in twelve small bodies, and soared into the sky.

Twelve spoke in astonishment.

"Chirp?" (Where are we going?) ）

The Nightmare Beastmaster looked at the end of his vision, a city so small that there was only one dot left.

"唳~" (Qingzhou City. ）——

"Right here, yes!"

On the city wall of Qingzhou City, Gu Wu commanded the staff of the Beast Master Association to complete the last construction of the city wall fortifications.

Looking at the towering city wall, which was much more majestic than in the past, Gu Wu breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but feel a little more secure in his heart.

More than twenty days had passed since the Lava Beast King's siege, but until this moment, that feeling of powerlessness still echoed in his heart for a long time.

As a general-level beast master, he is not the opponent of the other party at all, even if the four pet beasts work together, it is far inferior.

If you want to solve this problem, the best way is naturally to break through the power of the fifth-order contract as soon as possible, but the further you cultivate, the more difficult it becomes.

How easy is it to reach the fifth order?

"Senior Gu, with this more magnificent city wall, even if the beast king attacks again, it will not be so easy to destroy the city wall." Beside Gu Wu, a staff member of the association spoke excitedly.

"Break and stand." Gu Wu bowed slightly, "If an existence like the Lava Beast King comes to attack the city again, this new city wall will be enough for them to return with their feathers." ”

"But..."There was a hint of thought in Gu Wu's eyes.

He remembered that day, the Nightmare Beastmaster who suddenly appeared.

The other party can easily kill the Lava Beast King, his strength has exceeded his understanding of the king level, and his skills are even more unpredictable, and this city wall is afraid that it will not be able to resist it.

Fortunately, the Nightmare Beastmaster doesn't seem to have much of an idea of killing humans.

When it struck that day, it took its own daughter and didn't hurt a single human.

That's good news.

Thinking of this, Gu Wu's expression was obviously a little lighter.

"But what?" The staff on the side asked curiously.

"If yes..."Gu Wu was about to say what he had just thought, but was interrupted by a sudden sharp siren.

This is... Enemy attack!

On the city wall, which had just been completed, there was a slight commotion.

Everyone looked left and right, but they didn't see the shadow of the beast tide, and they couldn't help but wonder in their hearts.

At this moment, an exclamation came from the crowd, "Look at the sky!" ”

Everyone looked up one after another, and soon locked on a small black dot in the air that was rapidly enlarged.

Gu Wu's expression stiffened slightly, and the next one couldn't help but gasp.

He summoned his four dragons as soon as possible, and while taking off into the air, he looked at the staff on the side, "Go and call the president." ”

"No, I'm already here." Almost at the same time as Gu Wu's voice fell, He Nian's voice came quickly.

The next moment, he had already appeared beside Gu Wu.

Looking at the rapidly enlarged figure in the sky, He Nian's expression was as dignified as Gu Wu's.

In the past half a month, the Nightmare Beast King in the No. 97 Beast Domain has made the other Beast Kings surrender one by one, and it is naturally impossible for the human world to be completely unaware.

Calculating the time, the Nightmare Beastmaster at this moment has already brought all the transcendent creatures under his control.

At this moment, it came to Qingzhou City.

Isn't it enough to conquer wild and transcendent creatures?

"Lao He, do we have hope for it?" Looking at the Nightmare Beast King, whose figure had become clear, Gu Wu suddenly spoke.

"Hopeless." He Nian shook his head slightly.

He would rather come to the other four Beastmasters.

Because the other party, as a super beastmaster with a fantasy ability, can bring too much threat to a city.

"That thinks... What is the purpose of its coming this time? Gu Wu asked again.

"I don't know everything, either." He Nian smiled helplessly.

He just relied on the special ability of his pet beast, and it was easier for him to find out some news, but that didn't mean he could know everything.

At least, when the Nightmare Beastmaster arrived, he was completely confused.

"But..."As if he had discovered something, He Nian's sharp eagle-like eyes suddenly narrowed slightly, and then his expression became a little more relaxed, "Maybe things aren't so bad?" ”

Without waiting for Gu Wu to ask again, the Nightmare Beast King had already arrived.

He sighed slightly in his heart, and then greeted him with his four dragons, "The Nightmare Beast King is here, what are you doing?" ”

"I'm looking for Xu Ran." The Nightmare Beastmaster glanced at the two of them, and invisible fluctuations filled his mind and spread.

"Looking for Xu Ran?" Gu Wu's heart was shocked, and then he suddenly realized that the Nightmare Beast King did not come alone.

On its back, there's a little stuffy guy.

This seems to be the twelve princesses who were accepted by Xu Ran after disappearing?

Only then did he realize why He Nian suddenly said that maybe it wasn't so bad.

"Xu Ran is not in Qingzhou City now, if nothing else, he should be in the Cloud Gathering City of the No. 47 Beast Domain." Gu Wu shook his head helplessly, "If you want to look for him, you may not be able to find him for the time being." ”

"Beast Domain 47..."The Nightmare Beastmaster was silent for a moment.

It was a Beast Emperor-level Beast Domain, and it had never set foot before.

The degree of danger can be imagined.

And as a beast king who controlled the spirit and illusion realm, it could judge that Gu Wu didn't say a word of lie.

Originally, it planned to find Xu Ran and let Xu Ran help Twelve complete the evolution in front of it.

Now, the idea has to be put on hold for the time being.

"If he comes back, let him come to me as soon as possible, otherwise he won't want to contract my daughter." Dropping a word, the Nightmare Beastmaster didn't want to say much, turned around and left with Twelve, and soon disappeared into the sky along the route he had come.

"A false alarm." Looking at the disappearing back of the Nightmare Beast King, Gu Wu breathed a sigh of relief and shook his head helplessly, "It's just that we can't be sure when Boss Xu will come back." ”

He suddenly noticed that the face of He Nian beside him was different, and he couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with you?" ”

"It's fine." He Nian shook his head and took a deep breath to calm his expression again.

That kid, did he really do it?

Originally, after watching the Nightmare Beastmaster take Twelve away, he no longer had hope for the contract.

But judging from the words left behind by the Nightmare Beastmaster when he left, it seems that there is something else hidden in all this.

"Let's go to the Spark foster care store." He Nian turned around and left.

"What are you doing there? There are only employees hired by the boss. Gu Wu hurriedly followed, and at the same time asked in surprise.

"Perhaps, they have a way to contact Xu Ran?" He Nian smiled, with a bit of deep meaning in his eyes.

"Contact? How can it be! Gu Wu shook his head, just thinking that He Nian was telling a joke.

Xu Ran is in the No. 47 Beast Domain, how can he be contacted?

As the two arrive at the Starfire Boarding Shop, Nightmare Beastmaster and Twelve return to where they left off.

Looking at Twelve's calm expression, the Nightmare Beastmaster's eyes flashed.

"Huh?" (He went to Beast Realm 47, you know?) ）

"Chirp!" (Of course I do.) ）

Twelve nodded, speaking without hesitation.

Hearing this, the Nightmare Beast King's eyes were a little strange.

"Huh?" (Why didn't you say it just now?) ）

"Chirp~" (You didn't ask me!) ）

Twelve's face opened his mouth innocently, a hint of smugness flashing in his eyes.

Shaking his head slightly, the Nightmare Beastmaster stopped mentioning the topic, and then suddenly spoke.

"Huh?" (How do I find other materials for evolution?) ）

"Jiu~" (If you really can't find it, Xu Ran can buy it in a second-level town.) ）

Twelve flicked his wings with a nonchalant expression.

It asked Xiao Sixteen to help find it, just to save Xu Ran some money.

Xu Ran had already told it before that these resources could be exchanged in Cloud City, so there was no need to worry too much.

Hearing this, the Nightmare Beastmaster suddenly snorted.

"Wow!" (My daughter's evolution material, no need for other guys to provide!) ）

With that, it flapped its wings and quickly disappeared into the sky.

Looking at Daddy's disappearing figure, Twelve suddenly couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Don't... Daddy is jealous?

——

"It's time to eat!"

In the foster care area of Minghui City Xinghuo Foster Care Store, Xu Ran's shouts sounded.

Guided by the sound and the unusually attractive scent, the four little ones who had been playing happily for an afternoon appeared together with the Silverquill King, who had just checked into the foster care store.

"These three are the purple clouds, the stars, and the bright ones." Xu Ran handed the three food bowls to the three small ones who were waiting to be fed, and then picked up another food bowl and put it in front of Firefly, "This is for Firefly." ”

"Roar!"

Firefly couldn't help but let out an excited sound.

In the afternoon, under the leadership and company of the three little ones, it was in the fire training area, training for a long time, and it was already hungry at this moment.

What's more, the tempting fragrance wafting from the food bowl in front of him is something it has never smelled before.

It not only remembered that the three little ones in the afternoon had told it that the food Xu Ran cooked was very delicious.

Now it seems that it was.

Without hesitation, it reached out a bear paw, grabbed a handful of food from the bowl and put it in its mouth, and then licked its own paw with a smile.

Well... Very strong honey scent.

Not only that, but there are various other flavors that it likes so much!

Delicious! Love to eat!

Soon, Firefly entered the state of dry rice, came to the side of the three little ones, and showed off his mouth.

On the other side, Xu Ran had already handed the food bowl belonging to the Silver Quak King to the other party.

Looking at the pleasure value that popped up after the silver quill king enjoyed the food, Xu Ran's heart breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, although the pleasure value of the Silverquill King when eating is also low, it is acceptable.

Thinking that the Silverquill King had never had the slightest pleasure value because of the foster care environment, Xu Ran hesitated for a moment, and then said tentatively, "Silverquill King, do you think your living area still needs to be improved?" ”

"If you have any ideas, feel free to tell me, and I'll help you change them."

The Silverquill King's eating action paused, and a thoughtful look appeared on its face, and after a moment it shook its head slightly.

Obviously, it didn't feel like the intimate environment needed to be adjusted.

"That's... Are you happy here? Xu Ran asked again.

Hearing this, the Silverquill King nodded violently.

Happy?

Why doesn't happiness provide pleasure value?

Looking at the silver quill king who was recooking, Xu Ran's face showed a thoughtful look.

Whether it is the performance of the Silverquill King, or the answer to his own question, it fully shows its love for the foster care environment in the Spark Foster Care store.

However, the system's pleasure value prompt will not be wrong.

So... Is the Silverquill King pretended?

But why should a foster pet animal pretend to be happy?

Xu Ran's heart was full of doubts.

In a short time, the four little ones and the Silverquill King all ate the food in the bowl.

Neatly tidying up the food bowl, Xu Ran glanced at the Silverquill King who turned around and returned to his living area.

There was still no reminder of the pleasure value, which made the doubts in his heart thicker and thicker.

Thinking of the words that Silverquill King's Beast Master Zonghua told before leaving, Xu Ran decided to wait a few more days, and if it was still like this, he would truthfully feedback the situation of the Silverquill King to the other party.

Suddenly, there was a hint of joy on Xu Ran's face.

A line of text appeared in front of his eyes.

【Stage Quest Completed】

He quickly opened the task panel, and lines of text appeared in front of him.

[Main quest 4: Spread the branches.]

Task description: Please successfully open branches in four different second-level towns, and the popularity of the branch reaches more than 50%, which is considered to be successful, the task is a stage task, and the task rewards will be distributed in stages.

[Current Mission: Successfully open branches in three different second-level towns.]

Mission Progress: 3/3

Cloud City (Completed)

Demon Wood Castle (Completed)

Bright City (Completed)

Stage Quest Reward: System Clerk x3]

In just a few days, with the blessing of the "Holy Hand of Washing" and the eye-catching geographical advantage of Shuguang Building No. 1, the popularity of Xinghuo Foster Care Store in Minghui City has risen, and the task of popularity has been completed so smoothly for the first time.

At the same time, feeling Xu Ran's excitement, the three little ones all cast their eyes.

Xu Ran smiled and dropped a sentence of "The popularity is up to standard", and then raised his feet and walked towards the store hall.

He couldn't wait to see the three new clerks.

The curiosity in the eyes of the three little ones turned into surprise.

Visibility is up to standard!

This means that Xu Ran can let three clerks take over the storefront, which means that they have more time to explore the world outside the city.

"Roar?"

Firefly looked at the three little ones curiously.

What popularity? What is met?

It always feels like everyone is excited.

"Cha~" (I can't tell you this yet, it's a secret.) ）

Cancan patted Firefly's shoulder mysteriously, shook his head, and said.

"Sigh~" (We also follow!) ）

Xingchen hissed and took the lead in following behind Xu Ran, Ziyun and Cancan didn't say anything more, and quickly followed.

Looking at the eager appearance of one person and three pets, Firefly scratched his head, and then couldn't help but lick his paws.

The aroma of the food was still on its paws, and it was so intoxicated that it quickly forgot the idea of searching.

Walking into the closed storefront, Xu Ran looked at the three small ones that followed, and then chose to summon the three clerks without hesitation.

With the three whirlpools turning into portals, the three figures quickly appeared.

Not surprisingly, this time the clerk was still very systematic, but Xu Ran found that he was able to gradually become immune.

Choosing one of the more serious ones to be promoted to the system store manager, Xu Ran looked at the three new faces with a smile, "Starting tomorrow, the store will be handed over to you." ”

"Please rest assured that we will live up to our mission." The manager of the system hammered his chest hard, and the next moment it was as if he had been hit hard, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

He took out a white handkerchief, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth without a trace, and then raised his hand to give himself another hand.

"Enough is enough." Xu Ran stopped the other party with a smile and a smile.

I don't know when the system will assign him some normal clerks.

"Let's rest early today, we'll see you tomorrow."

Watching the three clerks go back to the living area to rest, Xu Ran breathed a sigh of relief.

With the store staff in place, he has fewer ties and can focus more on other things.

"Cha?" (With the new clerk, will we be able to go out of town again today?) ）

Cancan asked excitedly.

Thinking that he and his friends had teamed up to kill a Beastmaster last night, it felt that there was nothing around here that could stop its exploration.

"Don't worry, there was such a big commotion yesterday, so you have to keep a low profile for a few days." Xu Ran shook his head and chuckled, "We..."

He was about to say something when a rapid bell rang from inside the store.

The sound is...

Xu Ran's expression changed slightly, and he quickly looked at the landline hanging by the counter.

It was a cross-city call that only the manager of another store had the right to dial.

An arrow stepped forward, Xu Ran picked up the microphone, "Hey? ”

"Boss, it's me." On the other end of the phone, Mr. Tony's familiar voice came, "Today, the Nightmare Beast King came to Qingzhou City, asked to see you by name, and said that if you don't go to find it, don't think about contracting its daughter." ”

Xu Ran: "... Ha? ”
