Unorthodox beast control

Chapter 158 Running wildly under the moonlit night

"Check the resources first~"

After getting the alloy box containing all the resources from the strong man in charge of delivery, Xu Ran took the three little ones and Shi Shiran to the hotel room, opened the alloy box and took inventory.

With just one glance, Xingchen saw the unicorn of the Night Demon Dragon that made him think about it day and night.

"Xilu!" (That's it!)

The voices of the stars are full of excitement. All the preparations for evolution are over. It's time for the final evolution!

It has already felt the power hidden in its body that has not been deliberately improved during this period, but is still getting stronger and stronger.

If it is delayed for a while longer, it may really be unable to suppress the advancement.

Without further ado!

"Let me see..." Xu Ran held up the one-meter-long horn with both hands and touched it carefully.

The feel of the horn was different from what he had imagined.

He originally thought that the dragon's horns should be hard, even covered with layers of cuticles, and extremely rough.

But the Night Demon Dragon's horn feels quite smooth and feels good in the hand.

Of course, what's more important is the majestic dark power within it.

"This thing is obviously not for food." Xu Ran took a look and handed it to Xingchen, "I will hang it on you later and use it to complete your evolution."

"Xilu!" (Okay!)

Xingchen excitedly took the horn in his mouth, feeling the slightly intimate power in it, his eyes full of anticipation.

"According to the evolution ritual, you have to run wildly in the pure darkness, sublimate before exhausting the last bit of strength, and finally complete the evolution."

Xu Ran paused slightly, "Actually, I still don't know exactly what pure darkness is."

"But it certainly won't be during the day, so we'll try tonight."

"Xilu!" (Uh-huh!)

Xingchen nodded heavily.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Ran began to count other resources in the alloy box.

Among them, all the evolutionary materials for Cancan's evolution are included.

Although he was saddled with a heavy debt of up to 3,000 yuan, a look of joy appeared on Cancan's face when he saw that he had gathered all the evolutionary materials and had taken a solid step towards evolution.

Worth it! It’s all worth it!

Ziyun also gained two fighting resources.

One is the resonance bone bead that was previously exchanged for the remaining beast master points, and the other is the resource that was just won back.

It was a resource that looked like a claw bone.

Xu Ran compared the exchange list and finally determined that this resource was called Shattered Claw Bone. It could effectively increase the power of claw attacks, and at the same time, there was a certain probability that the owner would be able to comprehend the three-star skill "Tearing the Sky" during the absorption process. Broken marks.

This resource is worth 2400 points in the redemption list.

This is the first time Xu Ran has come into contact with a resource that can potentially comprehend skills. Although it has limited improvement in strength, both he and Ziyun think it is very cost-effective.

If you can really understand a three-star skill, it is equivalent to saving 2000 value points, and the increase in claw skills can also be used on the Thunder Claw of Destruction.

Although he rejected Jieyun City's face, You Shengjiang still gave himself such a good resource.

Thinking about it this way, the people in Yuyun City are pretty good.

"It's not evening yet, let's go out for a walk." After looking at the time, Xu Ran spread his hands, "We can start evolving at night. Maybe we can go out for a walk now, get familiar with the surrounding environment, and buy a store by the way. ?”

He has not forgotten what happened in Main Mission 2.

After buying the store in Xieyun City, half of the task is completed.

After operating for such a long time, Xu Ran didn't calculate the accounts carefully, but he already had several million dollars in his account, so buying a store shouldn't be a problem.

Anyway, the system does not specify the size.

Naturally, the three little ones had no objection to Xu Ran's proposal.

Putting the alloy box away, one person and three pets walked out of the hotel happily.

The first step in shopping is to have lunch! ——

“Tuk-tuk-tuk~”

He tapped his knuckles on the solid wood table, and there was a crisp and somewhat dull sound.

After a while, the tapping sound stopped, and the owner of the hand raised his hand and looked at the gray-faced young man in front of him.

"So...you lost to a beast master from a third-level town?"

If Xu Ran were here, he would be able to identify at a glance that this young man is Ye Haoming, who was defeated by him today.

"Listen to my explanation." Ye Haoming said with a bit of helplessness on his face, "That guy only has one pet beast that has broken through to the leadership level, but that pet beast not only evolved into the king race, but also currently displays all the skills. Full moon level…”

He glanced at the young man in front of him, "And that pet beast is very powerful. It doesn't look like it has just advanced."

"I think Qingzhou City must have spent a lot of effort to help him cultivate such a pet beast in order to gain limelight during the exchanges. When the power of the contract breaks through to the third level, the contract will be ready." Ye Haoming said bitterly.

"Anyway, you lost, but you still begged me to come to me, hoping that I would stand up for you tomorrow." The young man said calmly, "You know, before Vice President You came to me, I refused to participate because I didn't I like to torture food."

"So..." Ye Haoming seemed to have thought of some rumors about the young man in front of him, and looked at him tentatively.

"We have to pay more!" the young man said quietly.

"...Okay!" Ye Haoming gritted his teeth, "The form of communication tomorrow will be a little different from today. You go and bet with him. I will pay for the resources used in the bet. If you win, both items will be yours. Other than that, I’ll give you another general-level resource.”

"Vice President You has also spoken. Whoever defeats Xu Ran tomorrow will also be rewarded in his own name, which is equivalent to four general-level resources!"

After saying these words, Ye Haoming felt heartbroken.

In any case, he was the one who lost to Xu Ran and caused the Xueyun City Beast Masters Association to lose face, so he needs to bear some responsibility for this matter.

If not, he wouldn't be willing to cut off his flesh like this.

"I said...did you make something wrong?" The young man shook his head and crossed his legs, "Let me calculate the score for you."

"In a gambling battle, Xu Ran also has to come up with a general-level resource. If I beat him, the resource belongs to me. I won with my strength. Is there anything wrong with it?"

"Nothing wrong." Ye Haoming nodded.

"Vice President You will give you a reward in his own name. It's his reward. I got it after I defeated Xu Ran. I won it with my strength. Is there anything wrong with it?"

"...There's nothing wrong with it."

Ye Haoming nodded again, but this time his movements were slower.

He vaguely felt something was wrong.

"You provide a resource for a gambling fight. No matter who you invite, you will get this resource. In other words, it is not specially given to me, right?"

"No...wait..."

Ye Haoming frowned, feeling that there was something wrong here.

Before Ye Haoming could figure it out, the young man put his hands on his hands and smiled, "Look, so when you asked me to take action, you gave me a general-level resource."

"It's not enough, add more."

"Then... add one more thing?" Ye Haoming subconsciously followed the young man's intention.

"Okay, it's settled." The young man bared his big white teeth and showed a bright smile, "Tomorrow, I promise to help you win it!"

"My Qin Can's credibility is guaranteed." The young man stood up, stepped forward, patted Ye Haoming on the shoulder, and pushed him out, "It's a good idea to leave."

"Hey!" Ye Haoming finally figured out what the problem was in the conversation just now. He turned around and wanted to continue the argument, but found that the door was closed and there was a sign hanging on the door saying "Do Not Disturb."

Ye Haoming: "..."

It's over, I was fooled by Qin Huyou.

-

"Hello, based on your needs, we finally selected the store here for you. What do you think?"

In a rough storefront that had not yet been renovated, the housing agent looked at Xu Ran with a polite smile.

"not bad."

Xu Ran looked around and nodded with satisfaction.

<divclass="contentadv">This store is larger than the Xinghuo Nursing Store in Qingzhou City.

Of course, it refers to the larger size on the surface.

Moreover, the layout of the two is similar. This store is also divided into two floors, and the upper floor can be transformed into a living area.

As for the location, this store is located in the third ring road of Xieyun City. It is not in the city center, but it is more prosperous than the original store in Qingzhou City.

The point is, the price is not expensive either.

"The full payment is 3.7 million, right?" Xu Ran looked at the intermediary, "I'm making a one-time payment, can you help me solve the complicated procedures behind it?"

"That must be possible!" The intermediary said in awe, "Sir, come with me to make a payment, and the store will be yours."

"Arrangement!" Xu Ran snapped his fingers and followed the intermediary to complete the payment.

An hour later, the store was completely under Xu Ran's name.

Xu Ran glanced at the system panel.

[Main mission 2: Prepare for a rainy day

Task description: Ask the host to upgrade the system clerk to the system store manager, and have his own shop in any secondary town.

Mission reward: System clerk x2, system upgrade experience +200]

By owning a store in Xieyun City, half of the main mission 2 is completed.

Next, Teacher Tony needs to be promoted to system store manager.

Thinking of the large amount of resources required for improvement, Xu Ran had a headache.

This matter has to wait until Cancan successfully completes his evolution.

The priority of the evolution of the three little ones is of course higher than the system tasks.

But... there is one more thing that needs to be put on the agenda.

Xu Ran touched his chin.

Now that we already have a store, opening a branch is not far away.

Although it has not been officially opened yet, it can be warmed up.

We have to find a way to advertise so that the name of Xinghuo Nursing Home will appear in the eyes of everyone in Jieyun City.

"So I have to participate in tomorrow's discussion and exchange." Xu Ran sighed slightly, "Forget it, it's for business, so don't be shabby."

After looking at the dim sky, Xu Ran turned his head and looked at the three little ones carrying large and small bags.

Well... Mainly Xingchen and Cancan are carrying it.

Ziyun lay lazily on Cancan's scaly shell, euphemistically saying that he felt the weight of 3000 points of debt at all times, but in fact he was just lazy after being tired from shopping all afternoon.

"Come on, let's go back to the hotel to put away our things and then prepare to evolve."

Xu Ran had already found the venue for evolution in the afternoon.

It was an extremely long winding mountain road in Jieyun City, and there were no street lights at night.

This should be the place that Xu Ran thinks best meets the requirements of the evolutionary ritual.

-

That night.

When the lanterns are first lit, the moonlight shines and the sky is filled with stars.

One person, three pets, familiar with the road, came to the winding mountain road that had been visited before.

"Sure enough, there are no street lights, perfect." Xu Ran nodded with satisfaction, and then glanced at the sky with a hint of helplessness, "This is the moonlight..."

With the moonlight there, it can't be considered pure darkness, right?

"Xilu!" (I want to try!)

Xingchen spoke seriously, with a firm tone.

"Are you sure?" Xu Ran's expression became slightly serious, "If there is a problem with the ritual, evolution may become difficult."

Xingchen nodded again.

What pure darkness is, it is still unclear.

But it doesn't want to wait any longer.

It wants to surpass itself, catch up with Ziyun, and become stronger.

Only in this way can we better help everyone.

Feeling Xingchen's thoughts, Xu Ran moved slightly.

He was silent for a moment and then slowly said, "In that case, I will accompany you to evolve."

"Meow~" (And me!)

"Cha!" (And me!)

Ziyun and Cancan raised their paws simultaneously.

There was emotion in his eyes, Xingchen snorted and nodded heavily.

After swallowing all the evolutionary resources prepared by Xu Ran, he finally fixed the Night Demon Dragon's horn around his neck, and the stars were released from shrinking and returned to a height of four meters.

Xu Ran hugged Ziyun and Cancan and turned over to sit on Xingchen's back. He was at the foot of the winding mountain road and pointed towards the top of the mountain.

"set off!"

"Xilulu!!!"

The stars let out a high-spirited neighing sound, closed the Heart of Eternal Night, and took great strides to run forward.

run!

start running!

The resources that had just been swallowed had begun to explode in Xingchen's body. The violent energy escaped from its body uncontrollably, making the two pets sitting on Xingchen's back feel it very clearly.

"Meow!" (Start!)

Ziyun, who has experienced an evolution, has a solemn expression.

It knows that this stage is the most painful stage.

Come on, stars!

"Xilu!"

Xingchen let out a scream mixed with pain, and the sudden burst of power was like a blade rotating in the body, twisting into its limbs and bones. Severe pain permeated the whole body, as if it wanted to merge into Xingchen's body.

However, there seems to be a lack of some kind of guidance. These violent forces are scurrying around like headless flies in Xingchen's body, but they have never been able to complete their integration.

What's even worse is that the absorbed resources continue to explode with energy.

This caused Xingchen to face increasing pressure and pain.

"Meow~" (This situation doesn't seem right!)

Staring attentively at the changes in the stars, Ziyun was a little anxious at this moment.

Although it was difficult when it evolved, the energy was always being absorbed under inexplicable guidance, instead of being like Xingchen now, getting more and more violent but completely unable to absorb it.

Feeling the increasingly unstable state of the stars, anxiety also appeared in Xu Ran's eyes.

Is it really because of the moonlight?

Xu Ran suddenly raised his head and looked at the bright moon in the sky.

A flash of lightning flashed across Xu Ran's mind.

No, no!

What is darkness?

Nothing can be seen, that is darkness.

Even if there is no moonlight, Xingchen, as a dark beast, still has night vision ability and can see everything around him clearly.

and so…

"Xingchen, close your eyes and run!"
