Chapter 2: Awakening Ritual
Gu Ling in the two worlds has the habit of working part-time, and his expenses are simple on weekdays, and he has saved a lot of money, plus the annual subsidies for poor students, orphan subsidies and school subsidies given by the state, and various competition bonuses, totaling 100,000 dragon coins.
But this money is far from enough to buy a well-qualified pet animal cub or pet animal egg.
"You have to find a way to borrow some money...... Gu Ling looked at the bank cards and passbooks scattered in front of him and sighed.
At this time, Gu Ling's mobile phone next to him rang.
Gu Ling picked up his mobile phone and saw that it was a person with the remark "Second Uncle" calling, and his finger swiped to the right: "Second Uncle." ”
On the other end of the call was one of Gu Ling's few relatives, Gu Ling's late father's younger brother, that is, Gu Ling's uncle, Gu Mingsheng.
Gu Ling's parents died when he was a child, and he was sent to a welfare home for a while, and later Gu Mingsheng learned the news and took Gu Ling back to his home.
Gu Mingsheng has been married for almost 20 years and has a pair of children, the same age as Gu Ling, although Gu Mingsheng's family takes care of Gu Ling very much, but Gu Ling doesn't want to trouble others all the time, so he moved out when he was in junior high school.
The house she lives in now is a community with a good location and good security that Gu Mingsheng helped her find.
Gu Mingsheng asked: "After the final exam, tomorrow is the awakening ceremony, do you want to participate?" ”
"Participate."
"That's good." Hearing this answer, Gu Mingsheng's tone was obviously a little relaxed: "Now in this world, it is still the most promising to become a beast master, I will take the time to come over and accompany you in the past two days." ”
Gu Ling refused: "Second uncle, Wei Wei and I have already made an appointment to go together, so you don't have to bother you to come all the way." ”
Gu Mingsheng's family lives in Yangxi County, which is next door to Nanping County, and Gu Ling was admitted to Nanping Middle School in junior high school, so he moved here, and it takes several hours to go back and forth between the two counties.
Gu Ling knew that Gu Mingsheng's two sons and daughters would also participate in the awakening ceremony this year, so he rejected his kindness.
Hearing this, Gu Mingsheng didn't force it: "Okay, when the results come out, remember to tell me." ”
"You don't have to be too burdened, the inheritance left by your parents, I have helped you keep it in the bank all these years, enough to buy a medium-qualified pet animal cub."
"Okay, thank you, Second Uncle."
After hanging up the call, Gu Ling breathed a sigh of relief.
In the last second, she was still having a headache about where the money to buy the pet beast would come from?
In the next second, the method came.
Gu Ling muttered: "I almost forgot, my parents left an inheritance in the previous life, I remember that it was a house and more than 200,000 cash, I don't know how much there is in this life?" ”
As a student and orphan, Gu Ling has preferential policies, so that he can spend less money to buy pet animals.
If the inheritance has 200,000 cash, plus Gu Ling's 100,000 in hand, within the scope of preferential policies, you should be able to buy pet animal cubs or pet eggs with slightly better qualifications.
In addition to the money for the purchase of pet animals, part of the remaining money is used for living expenses, and part is used to cultivate pet animals.
Very nice!
……
The next day.
Gu Ling took Huang Weiwei's car to the Nanping pet beast hatchery base together, accompanied by the driver Fu Bo, and Huang Weiwei's parents.
The awakening ceremony is a top priority, and parents will basically accompany their children to come.
When I arrived at the Nanping pet beast incubation base, there was already a long queue at the door, all of which were prospective high school students and their parents.
Huang Weiwei's mother, Shen Qing, told the two: "Don't be nervous when you two wait, just treat it normally." ”
"Got it, Mom."
"Okay, Aunt Shen."
The two came to the gate of the base and showed their student IDs to the staff.
The machine scanned the student ID card, and after confirming the identity, the staff handed the student ID card to the two people along with a number plate.
Entering the base, Huang Weiwei looked at the numbers on the number plates of the two: "We are both E307-3, and we should be awakened in the same 'black house'." ”
Gu Ling nodded: "Yes." ”
The 'E' represents the building, the '307' represents the room in the building, and the final number '3' indicates the third group of people who performed the awakening ritual in this room.
After questioning a staff member, the two found the floor room where E307-3 was located.
After the second batch of awakened students came out, Gu Ling, the third batch of awakened students, walked into the room under the guidance of the staff.
Inside, the walls and floors are made of special black magnets.
Legend has it that thousands of years ago, the first human to awaken the beast space inadvertently fell into a black magnet mine, got lost in it for three days and three nights, and was affected by a special magnetic field and awakened the beast space.
In the thousands of years since, human beings have not stopped researching the black magnet, but they still can't explain why this special magnet can make humans awaken to the beast space that communicates with pet beasts.
After the 3rd batch of people arrived, the staff began to explain the process:
"You're going to be in your room for an hour, and for that hour, everybody meditates, and you empty your brain, and don't think about anything."
"After an hour, you can leave and go to the pet center of the base to test whether you have awakened."
After the staff finished speaking, they left the room.
At this time, a radio voice sounded: "After ten seconds, turn off the lights in the room, ask everyone to find a good place to sit down, keep quiet, and do not allow talking to each other." ”
After Gu Ling and the others heard the broadcast, they hurriedly found a place to sit down.
The way of meditation is actually very simple, there is no need for any mantras, and there is no need for any exercises or anything like that, that is, to empty the brain, but not to let yourself be in a state of distraction.
Gu Ling sat cross-legged on the cushion, closed his eyes, and calmed down.
There was no sound around, so quiet that only some breathing could be heard.
When I closed my eyes, I felt nothing but gray.
Time passed little by little, Gu Ling didn't know how long it had been, and suddenly, he felt a glimmer of light in front of the darkness.
Gu Ling knew very well that she hadn't opened her eyes, she wanted to get close to the light, but she was sucked in in an instant......
Suddenly, Gu Ling seemed to see an almost transparent black space, and directly above the space, there seemed to be something floating.
Gu Ling didn't have time to take a closer look, but was interrupted by a call in his ear:
"Zero-zero, it's time to wake up."
Gu Ling opened his eyes and saw Huang Weiwei beside him, at this time, the lights and doors of the whole room were also turned on, and the rest of the students who had awakened withdrew from meditation one after another.
Gu Ling stood up and asked Huang Weiwei, "How do you feel?"
"Like...... Is it awakened? When I see the Royal Beast Space, I'm just not sure. Huang Weiwei shrugged.
At this time, the radio in the room sounded:
"The awakening ceremony is over, please leave the room as soon as possible and go to the pet center to test the awakening results."
“……”
……
An hour later.
Inside the pet center.
After Gu Ling and Huang Weiwei went through a series of tests, the awakening results came out.
After reading the report, the staff smiled at the two: "Congratulations, you have awakened the beast space." ”
"During the summer vacation, the base will open preferential channels for students to buy pet animals, if you want to buy pet animals at the base, remember to come over during this period, there will be a 20% discount."
"This is the meditation manual of the Royal Beast Space, and you can also find the specific meditation method of the Royal Beast Space on the official website of the Nanping Pet Beast Incubation Base."
Gu Ling and Huang Weiwei took the awakening result report and a booklet handed by the staff, registered the identity information of the prepared beast master, and left the pet beast center at the base.
Huang Weiwei took Gu Ling's hand and jumped up and down excitedly: "Great! We have all awakened to the beast master space, and we can become beast masters together! ”
"Zero, do you have enough money to buy a pet beast?"
Gu Ling smiled and said, "My parents left me an inheritance, enough to buy a pet beast." ”
"That's good." Hearing this, Huang Weiwei was also relieved:
"After choosing a pet beast, I can't accompany you over, my pet beast has long been booked by my parents, and it is said to be a pet beast egg born by a pet beast with high qualifications in the Far East."
"I guess it's coming soon, and it will take a long time to 'hatch the eggs'."
Hearing this, Gu Ling couldn't help but feel sour.
"Tsk, you're Versailles!"
"There is a pet beast with high qualifications as your first contract pet beast, and you are still sad? Looking for a fight! ”
As he spoke, Gu Ling stretched out his claws towards Huang Weiwei and used a trick - tickle!
"Hey, hey, hey...... I was wrong! I was wrong! Spare your life!" Huang Weiwei's face was panicked, and she retreated and ran away, begging for mercy on her lips.
“……”
The two of them fought and walked out of the gate of the base.
The three people waiting outside were overjoyed when they learned that Gu Ling and Huang Weiwei had awakened the beast space, and Huang's father, Huang Yuanyang, waved his hand and took a few people to a high-end restaurant for lunch to celebrate the two.
……
After lunch, Gu Ling was sent back.
Back at home, Gu Ling told Gu Mingsheng the good news as soon as possible, and asked about the awakening results of his cousin and cousin by the way.
Gu Mingsheng's voice was a little smiling: "They have also woken up, and they will choose the right pet beast in the near future." ”
"I'm going to go over these two days and give you your parents' things."
"I see, Second Uncle."
After hanging up the call, Gu Ling began to surf the Internet, browsing the information of the 12 pet beasts recommended by the Nanping Pet Beast Incubation Base, and found a lot of related battle videos and training videos, and took notes while watching.
Before you know it, a few hours have passed.
Gu Ling glanced at the time on his phone, it was already seven o'clock in the evening, so he ordered a takeout, and then looked through the notes he had recorded from the beginning:
"The price of insect pet beasts is the cheapest, the cultivation cycle is short, and they can quickly form combat effectiveness, but the general lifespan is not high, and the appearance is still low......"
"Grass, water and flying pet beasts are all relatively docile and obedient, but if they are too docile, they may lack the will to fight, and they will not cooperate with daily training and fighting, so they will be included in the second choice."
"Electric and fire pet beasts, they have a certain combat effectiveness in their infancy, they are competitive, and they are generally freaked, but they also have the risk of disobedience, and they are difficult to cultivate, and the price is the most expensive......"
