Chapter 252 Big Orange Evolution

Chapter 252 Big Orange Evolution
Although Xiao Jie has decided to go to Canglin Province, he still needs to make some preparations before leaving.

There are monsters everywhere in Canglin Province, and the danger level is definitely higher than that in Fengyin Province, so Xiao Jie plans to improve his combat power as much as possible and make full preparations before setting off again.

The first thing is to complete the professional task.

after one day--

Beast Identification!

Xiao Jie raised his hand and fired a beast identification signal at the colorful giant spider in front of him. Specific information instantly appeared above the spider's head.

[Colorful Spider (Beast): Level 17. HP: 440.

Taming difficulty: difficult.

Skills: Bite LV3, Pounce LV2, Venom Spray LV3, Spider Web LV1. 】

Xiao Jie didn't even look at the words on it, because this was the seventh time he used this skill on these spiders.

Unsurprisingly, as soon as the spider noticed Xiao Jie, it pounced on him.

"Hey, girl, don't get excited, I'm just here to take a look."

The spider completely ignored him, leaped into the air, and pounced towards Xiao Jie with its fangs and claws bared.

Xiao Jie dodged the attack without a trace and casually slashed the spider's back with a knife, but he thought in his heart - damn, why isn't there a warning yet?

This giant spider kept spitting venom, but it did no harm to Xiao Jie.

This trait of being immune to all poisons is still very powerful.

If it were an ordinary person, he would have already filled his blood bottle.

Xiao Jie was not in a hurry to kill the opponent, but tried to force him to use more skills as much as possible.

After two rounds of circling, finally——

[System prompt: Due to your long-term contact with 'spider' creatures, your [Beast Knowledge] skill has added new content.]

It's finally here! Xiao Jie breathed a sigh of relief.

He has been dealing with various animals these past two days and has collected several beast illustrations. This is the twentieth beast illustration, and his professional mission has finally been completed.

Thinking of this, he no longer held back and swept across like a whirlwind, and immediately green blood flew everywhere.

Another knife cut, and the spider fell down twitching. Xiao Jie no longer hesitated, touched the corpse and quickly fled.

After chopping down the colorful spider, Xiao Jie was ready to escape. Along the way, he encountered two poisonous spiders and a steel-tooth spider... Xiao Jie did not linger in the fight. Although the damage from these spiders was not too high, they sprayed poison and spread webs, so it would be quite dangerous for ordinary people to come here.

The poison spray is easy to deal with, as it has the trait of being immune to all poisons, it can be completely ignored.

The more troublesome one is the spider web technique. Once you are sprayed with it, you will be slowed down. After a few layers are stacked, you will be stuck and unable to move.

Before, Xiao Jie accidentally led too much and almost overturned the car.

He immediately activated his lightness skill and rushed out of the Spider Canyon in one breath. Turning back to look around, Xiao Jie still had some lingering fear in his heart. It was only because of his extraordinary lightness skill. If it were someone else, it would be dangerous. Even he didn't want to go through it a second time.

I also checked the number of beast illustrations in the beast knowledge, and yes, there are exactly 20, so I can hand in the quest.

Xiao Jie summoned a scarlet charging warhorse and galloped towards the provincial capital.

Wanshou Villa is located on a hill southwest of Howling Wind City. It is built on the mountain and covers the surrounding grasslands and woodlands. It not only provides war horses for Howling Wind City for a long time, but also provides breeding dogs and hunting dogs for hunters from all over the world, as well as cattle and sheep for farmers. It is a semi-official organization.

It was Xiao Jie's first time here. Walking along the gentle mountain road, he soon saw the archway of the villa. Looking at the pair of majestic stone sculptures of tigers under the archway, he had a very intuitive impression of this place.

When we got up the mountain, we saw the towering walls and numerous watchtowers of the villa. As soon as we entered the gate of the villa, we heard a roar.

Hey, this is it?

Xiao Jie looked in the direction of the sound and saw a spotted leopard and a giant wolf fighting each other in a huge sand pit.

There was a circle of people gathered outside the sand pit, cheering and cheering. Xiao Jie went closer and found that there were quite a few players among them, almost all of them were animal trainers.

This group of people also brought a lot of pets, including wild boars, black bears, tigers, leopards, and even big spiders and spiny crabs.

"Go Jinzi, kill him!"

"Wangcai, stop shaking your head. Go ahead! Bite its neck!"

Xiao Jie asked curiously: "What are you doing?"

"The Beast Fighting Master Competition - haha, I won!" the person who explained cheered loudly.

The giant wolf bit the leopard and pinned it under it. Although the leopard was more agile, the size difference made it unable to resist.

"Stop, stop, stop, we give up." The leopard's owner shouted hurriedly.

At this time, an NPC wearing animal skins jumped down from the sand pit, separated the two beasts, and waved the flag.

"The seventh match - Moon Wolf Mine wins!"

The one called Yuexia Langmie was the owner of the giant wolf and the one who answered Xiao Jie's question. While feeding the giant wolf, he excitedly accepted the cheers from the people around him.

Looking back and seeing the occupation on Xiao Jie's head, he immediately encouraged, "Brother, aren't you coming?"

"Forget it. I'm not interested in this." Xiao Jie quickly refused.

If Big Bear was here, he could consider it. But now Big Orange is just a young tiger and is not suitable for participating in such activities. But that will be different soon.

"Excuse me, who should I contact to hand in the task?"

"Looking for the owner. He's on the stands over there."

Xiao Jie looked towards the stands in the distance, and sure enough, he saw a tiger-skin chair surrounded by the crowd, with a burly man with a face full of tiger beard sitting on it.

Wearing a tiger skin robe, a snake skin belt around his waist, and bear skin boots... a total beast king look.

Ji Xiaotian (Owner of Wanshou Manor): Level 38, HP 4000.

This NPC is obviously a leader-level one, and his health is extremely high.

Xiao Jie stepped forward and said he wanted to hand in the task, but Ji Xiaotian waved his hand and said, "Little brother, if you have anything, you can talk to my housekeeper. Don't delay me from watching the game."

A gentleman immediately appeared behind Ji Xiaotian and led Xiao Jie away from the stadium.

"Little brother, are you here to hand over a mission? I wonder what mission you are going to hand over."

Xiao Jie clicked on the task bar and chose to submit the task. [Task 1: Complete "The Beast Collection".

Mission content: Help Wanshou Villa collect more beast illustrations, collect 20 kinds of beast illustrations, and enter them into Wanshou Villa's "Wanshou Collection".

Mission Reward: Obtain knowledge skill - Beast Illustrated Book? ? ? You can choose one from [Beast Illustrated Book: Strange Beasts] [Beast Illustrated Book: Demon Beasts] [Beast Illustrated Book: Fairy Beasts] [Beast Illustrated Book: Ghost Beasts]. 】

"Ah, so it's the completion of the Anthology of Beasts. This Anthology of Beasts has been summarized and compiled by countless animal trainers, and it is already quite complete. However, we still welcome more animal trainers to join in and improve it together. As the saying goes, even the wisest man can make mistakes. Brother, you can submit the beast illustrations you have collected one by one. As long as you have collected twenty species, you will pass. If there are rare and exotic animals that have not been recorded, there will be extra rewards."

Unfortunately, Xiao Jie's 20 kinds of wild beasts were basically common ones, and after submitting them all, there was not a single new species.

The housekeeper was not surprised. "This rare beast is called a rare beast because of its rarity. It is not surprising if we haven't encountered one. As long as the number is enough, the mission is considered completed.

So which one would you like to choose as a reward, little brother?"

As he spoke, a task reward selection interface popped up in front of Xiao Jie.

Option 1: [Beast Encyclopedia: Strange Beasts].

Option 2: [Beast Encyclopedia: Demonic Beasts].

Option 3: [Beast Encyclopedia: Fairy Beasts].

Option 4: [Beast Encyclopedia: Ghost Beasts].

Option 5: [Beast Encyclopedia: Mythical Beasts] (cannot be selected).

Xiao Jie was not in a hurry to choose, "I am only learning how to practice this beast taming technique, could you please introduce it to me?"

"Naturally."

The butler then began to introduce them.

The chapter on monsters is of great value. Many animal trainers will choose this book as a reward when doing this task, probably because monsters are the most common in the world. These monsters are extremely ferocious, cruel and brutal, and can easily turn against their masters. However, beasts are beasts and have their own habits. If you can master them, it is not impossible to tame them.

The chapter on fairy beasts. Not many people chose this chapter because fairy beasts are the rarest. Most of them reproduce and live in blessed places. Because they are born with spirituality, they often have extraordinary magic powers and are very human. They will not easily turn against their masters.

However, due to their great intelligence, fairy beasts are extremely difficult to tame, and they even like to play tricks on the trainers. If they are forcibly tamed and cause their anger, the trainer's life may be in danger.

Chapter on ghost beasts. Ghost beasts are very common in the Netherworld. To put it simply, they are beasts from the Netherworld. Five thousand years ago, they poured into Kyushu when the gates of hell opened. They can be seen occasionally in various parts of Kyushu, especially in some places with heavier yin energy, such as Ghost Fog Ridge, where there are a large number of ghost beasts active.

This ghost beast is very powerful and is not as easy to devour its master as the demon beast. However, there is a disadvantage. It is said that ghost beasts are ominous and carrying a ghost beast can easily bring bad luck.

Finally, it is the chapter of strange beasts. These strange beasts are mostly rare and special among ordinary wild beasts. For example, among tigers, there is a strange beast called "biao". It is said that if a tiger gives birth to three cubs, there must be one biao. Biao is the most ferocious and can eat tiger cubs. Biao feeds on tigers and is the most ferocious and fierce. It is extremely difficult to tame it. Although it does not have any magical powers, its combat power is not inferior to that of other wild beasts.

Moreover, compared to those monsters, fairies and ghosts, this strange beast is closer to ordinary wild beasts, so once tamed, there will generally be no negative effects.

The chapter on divine beasts, these divine beasts are dragons, phoenixes, unicorns and the like, most of which have divine nature and extraordinary powers, and some even have divine status, which is incomparable to ordinary beasts. Currently, no one can tame them, and even the records have not been compiled, so they are not redeemable.

After hearing this, Xiao Jie had a rough idea in his mind.

It seems that except for the divine beasts, which are useless, the other four have their own advantages and disadvantages, but generally speaking, demon beasts and fairy beasts are better. Although exotic beasts are not bad, they are too rare. Whether you can meet one depends entirely on luck. At least he has been playing the game for so long, and it seems that he has never encountered an exotic beast - it seems not. Then, is the white ape considered an exotic beast?

Anyway, the white ape is not a monster, maybe it is really a strange beast?

But even if the white ape is a strange beast, he has only encountered one in total. In comparison, monsters are everywhere.

I have also seen some fairy beasts in Xuanxu Palace.

Relatively speaking, it is a pet that is both powerful and easy to use.

"How about it, little brother, have you thought it through?"

"May I think about it again?"

"Of course you can. You can come and exchange it anytime you want."

"Thank you very much."

As Xiao Jie said this, he went straight out of the villa and wandered around the woods surrounding the villa. He soon found a wild boar, which should be a very common wild monster.

Xiao Jie summoned the big orange beast. In the past two days, in addition to completing tasks and gaining beast knowledge, Xiao Jie also leveled up the big orange beast by two levels. Now it has reached 9% of the experience value of level 99.

The reason why the level is stuck and no longer upgraded is because I am afraid that it will evolve into a monster that is out of control, which would be terrible if it devours its master.

But now, Xiao Jie can take a gamble.

In case you can't control yourself, just redeem the Monster Chapter immediately. But if you can control yourself, then take Daju to fight more monsters. Maybe you can gain an epiphany about the Monster Chapter. In that case, you can redeem the Fairy Beast Chapter, which is equivalent to getting two rewards at once.

Xiao Jie attacked the wild boar with two strikes, leaving it with little health.

"Big Orange—come on!"

The big orange dog, who had been unable to hold back any longer, pounced on the wild boar, bit its neck madly, and soon knocked the wild boar to the ground.

A flash of white light appeared, and it rose to level ten.

[System prompt: Your pet has been upgraded, and has gained 5 free attributes and 1 evolution point. Due to your professional talent [Beast Scientist], you have gained an additional evolution point. Please add points to your pet.]

Haha, not bad, not bad, you’re lucky.

[Talent 1: Beastologist (Epic). You have done a great deal of research on beasts and have obtained a large amount of beast data, thus becoming an expert in beastology. For all beasts that appear in your illustrations, the difficulty of taming is reduced by 1, the experience points required for upgrading are reduced by 20%, and there is a certain probability of obtaining an extra evolution point when upgrading.]

Xiao Jie was a little worried about this "certain probability", but he didn't expect it to be really triggered.

These evolution points are roughly equivalent to the player's career options. A beast can obtain Jinhua once every time it reaches level 10. Xiao Jie directly obtained two this time, which can be said to be good luck.

Xiao Jie clicked on Daju's point adding interface and started to check it out.

[Evolution Option 1: Adult Tiger. After continuous training and growth in battle, Daju finally grew into an adult tiger.

Evolution rewards: 100% increase in size, +10 strength, +10 physique, 30% increase in damage from all physical attacks. Unlock basic combat skills: Deadly Pounce, Tiger Claw, Charge, Tiger Roar. 】

[Evolution Option 2: Demonic Beast Tiger. Daju successfully awakened the demonic beast bloodline in his body, and his biological category changed from [Beast] to [Demonic Beast].

Evolution reward: Spirituality +10. Unlock exclusive magic: Tiger Roaring Horrifying Roar, Tiger Claw Stone-Splitting Power, Crouching Tiger Stone Form]

[Evolution Option 3: Team Pet. During the long-term battles with the player team, Daju successfully inspired the players to love him and became the team pet.

Evolution Reward: Agility +10, NPC favorability +5 when you have a big orange with you.

Unlock team skills: Encouraging Roar (Encouraging nearby friendly units, increasing attack power by 10%). Cower (After activation, it reduces its presence, causing nearby enemies to have less hatred towards it). Master's Call (When summoned by the master, Daju will teleport to the player's side immediately, no matter where he is.)]

Under normal circumstances, one can only choose one, but now Xiao Jie can choose two evolutionary directions, which makes things a lot more convenient.
