Chapter 437: Beast’s Past, Skill Mishap
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“A year ago, Xiao Tie and I were both contracted by a human beastmaster…”
Through Luo Ya’s slow narration, Chu Feng gradually pieced together a rough outline from those few words. For Luo Ya to be companions with the Tree G.o.d and Flower G.o.d, it was obvious that her cultivation realm was close to the immortal level, or perhaps she was once an immortal herself.
After being separated from her two companions by accident, she wandered around the wild region. Then, she met Taotie, who had been beaten to a b.l.o.o.d.y pulp.
Due to the fact that everyone didn’t know Taotie and that he hadn’t displayed any extraordinary combat abilities, he had thus fallen into the hands of the lowest-level beast merchant in the entire wild region because he hadn’t been able to transform into his human form back then.
In the extremely filthy underground market, the lowly beasts that couldn’t catch any beastmaster’s eye for a long time could only be reduced to human sandbags. At that time, rotten meat piles in the cage were plentiful. Taotie was also one of them who was so hungry that he was powerless to resist. However, he was really too hungry!
!!As a result, when a “guest” stretched his fist over, Taotie could only smell the stench of blood and flesh and saw the ferocious muscles on the other party’s fists and arms.
“Awoo!” Taotie bit down only to welcome even more fists…
When Luo Ya, whose face was covered with dust and mud, pa.s.sed by, she saw a pile of rotten meat being thrown into the alley by a few strong men. There were also a few other corpses that were rotting and smelly inside.
“At that time, I heard someone pa.s.sing by saying that scavenger creatures would appear at midnight, so I picked up Xiao Tie.”
As a little girl, she naturally could not drag such a huge beast away. Even though Taotie had been starving for several months, it still couldn’t be dragged away. Just as Luo Ya was in a difficult situation, an underground rickshaw driver came over and kindly brought Taotie back to the small shabby room Luo Ya had rented.
The rickshaw driver helped Taotie find a doctor and Luo Ya find a job… Gradually, the three of them became friends. As friends, they would naturally help each other in times of trouble.
The rickshaw driver turned out to be a dest.i.tute D-rank beastmaster, one who couldn’t afford to buy a beast even after working his whole life.
“To thank him, Xiao Tie signed a beast contract with him not long after he recovered from his injuries. Moreover, it was a master-slave contract. By chance, my disguise was discovered, and I was also contracted as a beast… Due to my desperate resistance, the beast contract was very unstable, and could barely be considered a master-pet contract.”
When the rickshaw driver stopped pretending, Luo Ya and Taotie realized that the other party was an extremely vicious gambler. He was once an A-rank Beastmaster, but because he was addicted to gambling, he gave up all twelve beasts to the casino in exchange for chips of varying amounts.
The more he gambled, the more he lost. Even if he lost, he still continued gambling. In the end, he became the rickshaw driver that Luo Ya and Taotie knew. After obtaining beasts again, the rickshaw driver became even crazier.
“He somehow found a special medicine from somewhere and forcefully raised Taotie’s realm to the immortal level. Then, that madman brought us to partic.i.p.ate in the Death Show!”
The Death Show was an activity held by the underground auction. Similarly, there were also other shows like Terro Live Broadcast and Organ Guessing.
“The underground auction is a paradise for lunatics. Taotie and I spent some dark times there, killing many along the way, and finally reaching the final stage… Xiao Tie devoured that madman after being stimulated. We won, becoming a star group surrounded by flowers and applause. The underground auction wanted to use drugs to control the beasts that lost their owners in the final stage. I just happened to draw a special reward, and escaped while they were partying.”
Tears flashed through Luo Ya’s eyes and her voice was low, “Xiao Tie has eaten flesh and blood, and I’ve done bad things too. Do you want to break the contract now?”
Chu Feng shook his head, and his gaze fell on the stunned boy beside him. He was very puzzled, “Taotie doesn’t seem to remember.”
Luo Ya took out a chicken leg from her s.p.a.ce and stuffed it into her companion’s mouth. She said, “Xiao Tie violated the master-slave contract and ate the master. As a result, his level fell drastically and his brain was damaged at the same time. I was also affected a little.”
Chu Feng watched Taotie start another round of gluttony and the topic changed, “Isn’t he able to eat anything?”
Luo Ya nodded and then shook her head. “Ever since his brain was damaged, Xiao Tie always thought of himself as a picky Taotie.”
She paused for a moment and then continued, “Simply put, he can but because it’s not tasty, he won’t.”
Hearing this, Chu Feng couldn’t help but be startled.
“Why me?”
Luo Ya smiled and said, “Because you are a good person who is strong.”
Well, no one else would give such a reply.
Chu Feng did not think he would one day be called a “good person”, but he frowned, “I am not a good person.”
Luo Ya blinked and did not say anything.
Chu Feng looked at the interfaces of the two beasts before him and was at a loss for what to do for a moment. With his current resources, it could be said that he had endless divine source points. He could just enhance and strengthen the beasts however he wanted to. He didn’t need to worry about problems like having too many beast skills or not having enough divine source points!
However, he kept feeling that these two beasts were very different from the first six beasts.
“Luo Ya, other than lottery, have you tried the other four skills of mutant breeding, energy-consuming link, blueprint guaranteed success, and best customization?”
“Huh?” Hearing the Beastmaster’s question, Luo Ya was stunned, and replied in shock, “I don’t seem to have the skills of nurturing, customization, blueprint, and energy-consuming that you mentioned…”
Chu Feng’s eyes widened slightly, and he subconsciously looked at the beast interface, frowning, “What about Taotie’s gluttony, phagocytosis extraction, phagocytosis feedback, energy supply link, and universal production?”
Luo Ya’s eyes lost focus as she thought for a while before answering, “I think I’ve heard of the two super skills, gluttony and phagocytosis feedback, from that madman… But I’ve never heard of extraction, energy supply, and production.”
Chu Feng lowered his head to think. Two possibilities lingered in his mind. One was that Luo Ya and Taotie were slow to react to their own abilities, and the former Beastmaster had deliberately concealed part of their skills. The other was that it was because of their bond with him and the beast Interface that these skills were revealed…
Chu Feng rubbed his temples and decided not to enhance their skill for now, “Hera, you stay at home with Luo Ya and the others. I’m going to the illusory world to look into something. I’ll come back later.”
When Luo Ya heard this, her expression tensed up. Even Taotie, who was nibbling on a chicken drumstick, couldn’t enjoy it any longer, “Boss, do you not want us?”
“Don’t think too much. One of you has the lottery skill and the other has the devour skill. The two of you also have a joint talent skill. There’s no need for me to break the contract with you,” The Beastmaster turned around helplessly and added some food to Taotie.
Then, he took a few small flowers from the beast world and gave them to Luo Ya, comforting them, “I’m just going over to look for some information and see if there are any hidden dangers in your situation. You guys should also try to sense your new skills later to see if there are any abnormalities.”
Chu Feng waved his hand and raised the two beasts’ skills to level 10. In the next moment, his figure disappeared from the courtyard.
