Beast Taming Patrol

Chapter 16: Contract Qiuqiu

Evolution Technique: Deep Sleep and Dream, a spirit-type universal teaching evolution technique that has a certain probability to allow those without spirit attributes to evolve through specific evolutionary resources and gain spirit attributes.

This is the evolution technique that Xue Henqing needs for evolution.

The role of an evolution technique is actually to act as a medium and a catalyst.

For example, if a pet beast originally lacks a water attribute and you want it to have a water attribute after evolution, then the evolutionary resources must contain water attributes. However, if the pet beast’s own attributes are unrelated to water, how can it fully absorb water attribute resources to evolve?

At this time, the pet beast needs to learn an evolution technique in advance. This evolution technique is somewhat related to the water attribute but can be deployed even without the water attribute. It can serve as a medium for absorbing water attribute resources during the evolution process, helping the pet beast better absorb these resources.

Of course, the prerequisite is that the pet beast’s own attributes do not conflict with the water attribute. If you want to make a fire attribute pet beast evolve to master both water and fire attributes, that’s simply wishful thinking.

Deep Sleep and Dream, this particular evolution technique, works on a similar principle. Every pet beast sleeps, and during sleep, they dream. Deep Sleep and Dream allows the pet beast to control its own dreamscape and enter it whenever necessary.

This evolution technique doesn’t require spirit attributes to be executed, yet it indeed has a close connection with the spirit type.

The principle is as such, and upon reviewing the related introduction to this evolution technique, Lin Su understood its function.

But the problem is, Blue Star doesn’t have this evolution technique.

Or rather, anything related to spirit-type evolution is scarce on Blue Star.

After all, for the technologically advanced Blue Star, the spirit is quite an abstract concept, which has led to a fixed mindset, and many related research attempts ultimately ended in failure.

So now the question arises.

When he evolves Qiuqiu and others see its evolved form, what should he say?

Scratching his head, Lin Su finally sighed.

He would deal with it when the time came.

No matter what, having confirmed that Qiuqiu has an evolutionary form is good news for Lin Su, at least he now has a goal for the future.

With the most important task completed, he began to browse through the pet beast species introduction materials with great interest.

It was also a way to get familiar with the pet beasts of this world in advance.

As he had guessed, Blue Star had information on basically all of the pet beast species; he could find introductions for all the pet beast species he knew of, and many species had different evolutionary forms compared to those on Blue Star.

Beyond that, Shenwu had a large number of pet beast species that Lin Su had never heard of before.

Meanwhile, Lin Su also discovered many universal teaching skills in this world that had never been heard of on Blue Star; these skills could be taught to pet beasts that met the teaching criteria, allowing them to acquire new non-core techniques and thus increase their strength.

Now, all of these have become Lin Su’s advantages and wealth, because if he wants to, he could bring these evolutionary paths and teaching skills never seen on Blue Star back with him.

Engrossed in his reading, time flew by quickly. After how long, he couldn’t tell, but everything around him had fallen into darkness. Lin Su came back to his senses from the materials, noticed the sky filled with stars, and saw the Bright Light Group silently providing him with light. A smile crept onto his face.

His body was starting to protest, and drowsiness swept over him. Lin Su stood up, stomped his slightly numb legs, and headed for his room. Soon he lay on the bed, closed his eyes full of anticipation.

Qiuqiu, here I come!

When Lin Su woke up again, he felt a small weight on his chest. It wasn’t enough to suffocate him but it tickled.

Looking down, Lin Su’s gaze met a pair of eyes that seemed to hide glaciers within them.

"Meow! (*´ω`*)” (Good morning!)

Blinking, Lin Su quickly displayed a beaming smile, “Good morning, Qiuqiu.”

His hand subconsciously reached for the communicator next to him, turned it on, and checked the time.

Seven in the morning.

By that count, he must have slept for eight hours.

As for the Shenwu world, even though Lin Su hadn’t calculated carefully, the time he spent there was definitely longer than eight hours, at least ten hours.

Last time he traveled, he noticed a small problem: the time he stayed in one world and the time he slept in the other world seemed to be unrelated, so this time he made a point of paying attention to it.

So in both worlds, the concept of time flow does not exist, no matter how long he sleeps, the time he wakes up in the other world will not change?

Interesting rule.

Noting this point in his heart, Lin Su picked up Qiuqiu, “Qiuqiu, after I freshen up, we’ll have breakfast together, and then I’ll form a contract with you.”

"Meow? Meow! (=^ω^=)” (Really? Finally going to form a contract!)

Seeing Qiuqiu not only show no resistance but rather look forward to it, Lin Su’s smile grew a bit thicker, “Of course it’s true.”

In order to be in the best spirit to welcome his first contracted beast, Lin Su took Qiuqiu to the bun shop near the orphanage after washing up and spent a substantial amount on three large steamed buns and two cups of soy milk for breakfast.

At such a young age, daring to order two cups of soy milk for breakfast, can you imagine?

And to have three large meat buns, the kind where biting into them reveals all meat, each selling for two Alliance currency, can you imagine?

As for Qiuqiu’s breakfast, it was still the ordinary catnip-flavored feeding blocks.

Their breakfast was especially satisfying. Afterward, Lin Su carried Qiuqiu back to the orphanage to start the contract.

It was the first contract for both of them, but the process went very smoothly.

As Lin Su used his mind to envision the Beast Taming Space wrapping around Qiuqiu before him, two light yellow complex glyphs slowly interwove and appeared under the feet of Lin Su and Qiuqiu, and in the next instant, Qiuqiu vanished from the spot.

Closing his eyes, he could easily sense Qiuqiu’s current state—it was happily rolling around in his Beast Taming Space. As Lin Su’s gaze turned toward Qiuqiu, Qiuqiu felt his gaze, and after a “meow”, a voice suddenly appeared in Lin Su’s mind.

"This is much more comfortable than the outside!”

This was the telepathy exclusive to contracted beasts and Beast Tamers, which allowed for mutual understanding of intentions between the Beast Tamer and the beast. It would work within a certain distance and the effective range would increase as the level of the Beast Taming Space improved.

Previously, Lin Su could roughly guess the meaning behind Qiuqiu’s words, but it was just a guess. Now, after forming the contract, the two could communicate without barriers.

It was no surprise to Lin Su that Qiuqiu found the Beast Taming Space comfortable.

The Beast Taming Space is akin to an incubator for beasts, where they not only can grow faster and heal their injuries quickly, but also feel an incredibly warm and comfortable sensation.

So many Beast Tamers, though they have contracted beasts, walk around alone outside.

Their beasts prefer to stay in the Beast Taming Space, unwilling to come out.

"Don’t worry, Qiuqiu, let’s try summoning.”

After getting a positive response from Qiuqiu, Lin Su took a deep breath and used his thoughts to summon Qiuqiu out of the Beast Taming Space.

Light poured and converged underfoot, ultimately interweaving into a light yellow glyph.

A flash of light appeared, and right then, Qiuqiu’s figure emerged at Lin Su’s feet.

The smooth entry of Qiuqiu into the Beast Taming Space and its successful summoning showed that this contract was indeed successful.

Lin Su smiled, “Done, let’s go to the Guardian Beast Association to register.”

"Meow~(*^ω^*)” (Can I go into the Beast Taming Space first~)

"No, after registration, we’ll also visit the training ground for a session. Only after completing training can you rest in the Beast Taming Space.”

"Meow?! (≖ω≖)” (Training?!)

"That’s right, after training you’ll be able to defeat even tougher Fire Cloud Dogs.”

"Meow? Meow! ฅ(≧ω≦)ฅ” (Defeat tougher Fire Cloud Dogs? I want to train!)

"Don’t worry, I’ll train with you.” After a bit of coaxing the little guy, there was a hint of smugness on Lin Su’s face.

In the past, Beast Tamers only needed to be able to correctly command their beasts in combat, but with the advent of Guardian Beast Co-operation, the requirements for Beast Tamers increased, not only including the need to foster a relationship with their beasts but also necessitating that Beast Tamers train alongside their beasts.

To master Guardian Beast Co-operation at Beast Tamer University, these two points are fundamental. They even play a role in the entrance assessment.

Even with little knowledge about Guardian Beast Co-operation at the moment, Lin Su knew he must be strict with himself.
