Starting With Contract Pets

Chapter 150: Legend

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

A total of five commander pets, including the spirit monsters like the Eye of Sapphire and the Night Demon, surrounded Su Bai’s group; the two monsters were aimed at the Thousand-face Fox and Big Demon. There was also the fire monster, Vulcan Butterfly, specifically aimed at Purple Jade. The Aboleth for the Little Tyrant and the Holy Light White Wolf, which dominated everything, sealed off the battlefield.

These five high-level commanders were all well-cultivated by their Pet Tamers, causing Su Bai’s heart to sink to the pits of his stomach.

Even if it was a wild high-level commander, he still had to mobilize three of his pets to defeat it. He could not even deal with one high-level commander under a Pet Tamer, so what more of five? In addition, they all restrained his pets’ attributes.

“What do you want?” he asked in a deep voice.

He wanted to stall and call for help but realized that even the signal on his phone had disappeared.

“I want nothing but for you to die.”

A cold and indifferent voice sounded just as the five monsters directly pounced on him.

The Eye of Sapphire and the Night Demon condensed their Psychokinesis attack directly toward Big Demon and the two Thousand-face Foxes. Having just reached the warlord grade, how could Su Bai’s Mewling Fox and Chen Ruoxue’s Qiu Qiu possibly withstand this attack? They could activate their illusion skill to condense several identical shadows and confuse the opponent, but this was useless in the eyes of the spirit monsters. The Psychokinesis attack directly hit their bodies with a puff, severely injuring them and almost hammering them to death.

“Hehehe!”

Big Demon was hit by the Psychokinesis attack, and its body shape suddenly fell apart. Even it was unable to withstand the mind attack, especially since its well-tried illusion skill was now totally suppressed, with the Psychokinesis attack able to control its orientation. Because the opponent’s level was too high, Big Demon was severely injured in just a short moment.

However, this was not the end. The two wings of the Vulcan Butterfly fluttered as it converged two tornadoes with inexhaustible flames. It launched the tornadoes at the cub from both sides, while the Aboleth flicked a cloud of slime at the Little Tyrant.

The Vulcan Butterfly was a rare heaven-burning monster, with an extremely violent fire tornado. Its power was not weaker than a monarch. Wherever its fire tornadoes passed, the ground would be engulfed in lava rivers, and Thorns Domain was instantly carbonized upon meeting this terrifying sea of flames.

Right when the attack was about to hit the cub, green light flashed on its body, and it directly activated the Wood Spirit Replacement to appear in front of the Little Tyrant. It then fired a series of Energy Burst at the Aboleth.

The attack of the Aboleth seemed to be nothing but a transparent goo, but in fact it was an attack that completely restrained the fire attribute. If the Little Tyrant was hit, it could give up on launching a fire attack. This slime cloud had a fire-extinguishing effect, which could cause the opponent to be unable to launch a fire-based attack for a time.

The wood attribute happened to be its nemesis, and the slime cloud dissipated immediately upon being hit by the series of wood-attribute attacks.

On the other side, because the cub had temporarily escaped from the two fire tornadoes, they directly collided and tore a huge pothole on the ground, causing the thorns on the ground to burn.

“Howl!”

Howling angrily, Purple Jade summoned thorns to drill out of the ground again. Life energy poured into the injured pet’s body among the surging green light.

Su Bai and Chen Ruoxue quickly kept their Thousand-face Foxes into their contract books as they could no longer fight.

When the five pets mobilized their spiritual power anew, Su Bai stared at them desperately. Their opponents were too strong and unbeatable.

Furthermore, their group had already been surrounded, so the pets could not leave them too far, or else they would be directly attacked. Hence, there was no way to single out one monster and deal with it.

If this went on, Chen Ruoxue’s Big Demon would be the first to collapse. His cub and the dino could not resist much further, either.

“Get ready; we have to escape,” whispered Su Bai as he summoned his contract book. A blood-colored figure flew out and carried the two of them to the sky. At the same time, he kept the cub and the dino.

“You finally released your Ancestor Blood Dragon!” A black-clothed man hiding behind the scenes smiled upon seeing this.

He released a special electromagnetic satellite monster. “Go and record all the battle images and the data of the Ancestor Blood Dragon.”

Their purpose here was to obtain the data of the Ancestor Blood Dragon. Only after knowing the specific situation of it could they assess its pros and cons and consider whether to provoke the lonely Gao An for the sake of the dragon.

The moment the Little Blood Dragon carried Su Bai and Chen Ruoxue to the sky, five fatal attacks headed to it. Whether Su Bai chose to dodge the attack or directly break through the blockage, he would be unable to escape, unless he chose death.

“Let the dragon break through the blockade; I will let Xiao Bai delay the enemies. Don’t worry; my pet will not die.”

Chen Ruoxue released Big Demon from her contract book.

“No, I have a better idea.”

He opened his contract book and released the dino.

The Little Tyrant: “...”

The five terrifying attacks directly blasted it into powder with a bang, and the dragon successfully broke through the blockade and flew out.

Su Bai’s contract book appeared out of thin air where the Little Tyrant was resurrected before keeping it inside again.

“Do not let him escape!” shouted the man from behind, and the others hurriedly commanded their pets to chase Su Bai’s group.

At this moment, a terrifying breath suddenly fell from the sky and directly pinned the group to the ground. “You people are so brave to chase down my disciple openly!”

Gao An’s rugged voice sounded along with an invisible psychokinetic attack. The electromagnetic satellite monster, which was recording the Little Blood Dragon’s data, was directly blasted into smithereens, leaving behind nothing, not even its crystal nucleus.

The others were bound so tightly with their pets by a mental rope that they had no room to struggle.

“Master, why are you here?”

Su Bai flew over to the old man on the back of his pet dragon.

“Hmph! I came here to protect my face. Publicly attacking my apprentice in Cannes is tantamount to provoking me!”

Gao An raised his chin and exclaimed.

In fact, after the assassination attempt on his disciple in the KTV last night, he started paying attention to his safety.

Su Bai kept the dragon and bowed respectfully. “Thank you, master.”

“Hmph. They ignored my words, so I’ll let them know of the consequences for doing so.” Gao An’s eyes flashed fiercely and he looked up at his apprentice. Kid, you did a great job, but remember not to let anyone know the specific data of your dragon, especially its characteristic as a bloodline pet. Otherwise, big trouble will come to you. The Pet Alliance has connections deep underground, and only by learning to hide your trump cards can you advance further.

Gao An telepathically told the boy the second half so that no one else could hear it.

“I understand.”

Su Bai nodded. The only reason why he could escape today was that he had never exposed his dragon before.

Soon, several police rushed over on their mounts. As the blockade was destroyed, the violent aura fluctuations had immediately been detected.

“Excuse me; what happened here?”

“It’s like this...” Su Bai recounted what had happened. The police scanned at the area and quickly understood everything.

“Our apologies for coming late, but do not worry; public attempt of murder in our city is a very serious act. If proven, they will be sentenced to life imprisonment.” One of the policemen assured them.

Su Bai and Chen Ruoxue followed them to record their statements, leaving the rest to Gao An to handle.

“Let’s go to a monster wilderness in a few days’ time. I feel too frustrated; I want to improve my strength,” said Su Bai solemnly after they left the police station.

He had already been chased and almost killed twice in a row. Especially this time, he had been absolutely helpless.

He did not want to experience the thrilling feeling of his life hanging by a thin thread anymore, especially so when Chen Ruoxue would be exposed to danger with him.

He had obviously worked so hard to cultivate the Little Bloodworm into a dragon, but others were hunting him down and trying to assassinate him for it. He understood that no matter how one concealed their wealth, men hunted others for their resources, especially the superior ones. They would plunder others’ precious things unscrupulously.

They had been lurking in the dark, silently observing all this, and would reach out with their fangs and claws to snatch what they wanted with force when there was a chance.

The only way Su Bai could overcome them was by being stronger.

“I’ll go with you; I also want to find a new pet to contract. The feeling of being hunted down is terrible.”

Chen Ruoxue held his hand.

Even though there were beautiful snowflakes falling from the sky, the two were not in the mood to appreciate them.

When he returned home, Su Bai released his pets and examined them one by one. The Mewling Fox was still seriously injured and would have directly died if it had not been for the cub’s immediate treatment.

Although the Little Tyrant’s death was not a serious issue, it still needed replenishment of its spiritual power and origin.

The cub’s depleted spiritual energy was also quite serious and needed to be supplemented.

“Come and drink this.”

Su Bai handed a bowl of healing potion to the baby fox.

The Mewling Fox raised its head with difficulty, licking the potion slowly.

He fed it spoonfuls of it.

After feeding the fox, he took enough medicinal cakes for the cub, the dino, and the dragon. “Thank you for your hard work. Come over and eat.”

He caressed their heads and smiled gently. He owed it to these guys, especially the Little Tyrant.

Of course, he had first obtained its consent to resist the opponents’ attacks by using its immortality.

Ah Bai, stop frowning; we’ll all become stronger soon, so strong that nobody will dare to bully us. The dragon looked at its owner and reassured him telepathically.

Yes, it’s just because their level is higher than ours, so don’t be unhappy. The cub licked his face.

“Haha! I was just thinking about some things, not worrying about what happened today. They think we are insignificant and easy to bully, but we will strike back once we are stronger. This is nothing at all.”

Su Bai smiled, touched by his pets’ concern.

In the blink of an eye, the day’s snow finally dyed the world pure white. The morning when it snowed was always exceptionally quiet. Su Bai sat on the cub’s back and rode it to school. Purple Jade’s big cat paws sank into the snow, leaving behind rows of beautiful plum blossom prints.

The silent white world improved Su Bai’s mood, and he was not as irritable as yesterday.

When he arrived at school, everything in it was without any changes, but he no longer had the mood to keep studying. School life was very comfortable and peaceful, but it was too slow, and the teachers were still teaching the basics which had little use to him. He could learn the information in books through self-study and really had no need to waste his time here.

Thus, he came today to ask for leave as he intended to take a long vacation.

“There you go; you definitely haven’t had breakfast yet.” Chen Ruoxue handed him a cup of hot porridge.

“Thank you.”

He took it with a smile.

“I managed to convince my parents, thanks to the professional Pet Tamer certificate,” Chen Ruoxue said with a smile.

“That is great; I thought that it’d be very troublesome on your side.” Su Bai nodded.

“Are you going to take time off to enter the monster wilderness again?”

Yang Zhou heard them talking in the back row and asked.

“Yes, I want to take a longer vacation. After all, there is nothing to learn in school.” He nodded.

Yang Zhou was speechless.

Was he using human language?

“Alright, it seems that it’s impossible for us to catch up with you. Good luck; I wish you all the best!” said Jiang Yang a little regretfully, originally wanting to ask Su Bai and Chen Ruoxue to watch the snow with them.

However, upon thinking about it, they were already official Pet Tamers who had access to plenty of places.

“Thank you.” Chen Rouxue smiled.

“By the way, aren’t you going with Sister Tingting? She’ll probably have her Pet Tamer certificate soon,” asked Yang Zhou.

“No, Sister Tingting should go with you guys. It can help encourage you two that way.” Su Bai chuckled and patted Yang Zhou on the shoulder. “You can do it; the Little Conch has a secret, so its future is very bright. You will have to fight for it.”

“What secret?” asked the other, feeling curious.

“Cultivate it first; it is useless even if I tell you about it now. Let’s save it for next time.” Su Bai smiled.

Yang Zhou was about to say something when the class bell rang.

The early self-study was under Hou Jie. She walked in and glanced at Su Bai. “Come out with me.”

Nodding, he followed her down the aisle as he shivered in the cold wind.

“Are you feeling very cold? Do you want me to lend you my coat?” Hou Jie laughed.

“Thank you, but it is alright.” He smiled slightly.

“I just heard about what happened to you yesterday. Are you okay?” asked the teacher.

“Yes, my master already handled it.”

Su Bai shook his head.

Hou Jie nodded slowly. “It is best that your master handles this matter. The connections of the Alliance are too deep, and you are still young, so all you can do is just work harder.”

“Teacher, do you know why they are so stubborn about my pet dragon? It is powerful, but there are other pets of equal strength or even better than it,” asked Su Bai, feeling perplexed.

This had always been a puzzle to him.

Hou Jie pondered for a moment and slowly replied, “I am not too sure, either. I guess that it has something to do with the legend in the Alliance.”

The legend?

Su Bai grew more curious.
