Beastmaster: I am a true genius

"Master! This claw machine is very bad. It deliberately doesn't let me pick up the doll! I clearly calculated the angle, but it deliberately loosened its claws!"

Under the colorful lights, Xiyang's eyes were filled with tears, and his long ears popped out from the top of his head and drooped beside his face.

The premise is...

Ignore the big hole on the claw machine across from it.

"What happened?"

Kitsune Shichi came running over carrying the cat.

Mainly because she didn't have time to put them down...

"This claw machine loosens its claws on purpose!"

Seeing Kitsune Shichi running towards him, Xieyang calmed down in a second, raised his head firmly, and tears as big as beans rolled down his fair cheeks slowly.

——Tear gland strengthening, of course, also falls into the skill category of [local strengthening].

Claw machine: “…”

The colorful red lights on its body lit up. Since it could not attack humans, it had to give up its frenzy, retract its mechanical claws, look at its broken glass window, silently start the maintenance program, and call for maintenance personnel.

"Ah...Xiayang, it seems that all claw machines are like this. They have a set probability so that you can't catch it."

Kitsuneya Nana hurried to comfort his crying rabbit, but to do so... he had to abandon the cat in his arms.

"Woo woo, I've run out of money..."

The setting sun cried out, glanced down, and quietly squeezed away all the big cats that came from nowhere.

"Besides, there's a lot of money...eh?"

Kitsune Shichi reached into the basket. Where was the money?

Perfect: Baji, Baji... huh? (shaking)

"...But sir, your pet destroyed the claw machine...According to the regulations, you need to compensate."

A mechanical cat raised its paw and poked the claw machine. Then, a light screen unfolded and slid out a string of codes. The gems in the cat's eyes lit up and froze on a few of the characters.

"But this claw machine is three years old and will soon be scrapped. It won't be very expensive, don't worry."

"It's okay. I'll pay for it."

Kitsuneya Nana has gotten used to it. She touched Xieyang's ear and looked at the fancy machine - no matter how you look at it, it's just an ordinary claw machine.

But this claw machine really fought with Xieyang just now! Kitsune Shichi "saw" its steel claws stretched out very long, at least 10 meters away, and even though Xieyang's evasive action was so fast that an afterimage was left, he was almost caught by it.

Is this really a claw machine?

"Wait, is it also a pet?"

Kitsuneya Nana realized it later and suddenly opened his eyes wide.

Then, a cold and low reply came from behind her: "Yes."

Alex had stood behind me at some point, wearing a black shirt, white pants, and a long grey coat.

Of course, no matter what he wears, as long as his face is still there, he will look very tasteful.

The barrier was also propped up at the same time.

"Sir, why are you here?"

Kitsune Yashichi turned around instantly and smiled in seconds.

Alex's eyes were deep, his long, curly eyelashes trembled slightly, but he didn't say anything.

Ha, you dare to ask him why he came. If he doesn’t come again...she will make all the employees suffer!

"You are worthy of being Alice's friend," Alex looked at the claw machine again, "She has been blowing up the stadium these days, and I have paid for her many times. It seems that you are just like her, and you have a special liking for destroying things."

At first glance, this sounds like a condemnation.

But after thinking about it, Kitsune Shichi always felt that Alex's words... concealed a deep fatherly love, or motherly love, and a little bit of pride.

It was just a blow up of the stadium, and no one was hurt. For an eight-star beastmaster, it was just a minor accident. If it weren't for the fact that Alice had blown up six or seven stadiums in a row, Alex would have taken it to heart.

"That can't be called destruction. She didn't do it on purpose. The beast pet's skill is explosion. We can't just not use it."

Kitsuneya Nana made up a perfunctory excuse for Alice and pointed to the claw machine.

"Is this also a pet?"

Then why didn’t the system pop up the interface when she was playing the claw machine just now?

"Yeah." Alex nodded and glanced over indifferently, "You don't have to pay for it. Just leave it here. Its contract is about to expire anyway."

"The contract expired?" Kitsune Shichi was stunned.

Alex turned his head, "Three years is up."

Kitsuneya Nana immediately realized that he had asked a stupid question, because the Elf King's silence was almost materialized.

Seeing that Alex was about to disappear, Kitsune Shichi couldn't help but take another step forward - there was no other way, because she was looking for a job before she traveled through time, and the process was so difficult.

"Do you have retirement here? Do you get a pension after retirement? Do these mechanical pets work here from birth? What are their salaries and benefits?"

Alex paused: ...

How did this successor of the Holy Lord suddenly become "One Hundred Thousand Whys"? However, these questions are not secrets, he can answer them.

"After buying the mass-customized mechanical pets, the initial customization contract is three years. This is also the price of their birth. When the three-year period is over, they can choose to continue working here or go out and find another job."

Three years may seem like a short time, but this is due to the characteristics of the mechanical pet.

Buyers of customized mechanical pets usually require the mechanical pets to work 24 hours a day without interruption, and they cannot rest for even a minute while on duty.

This kind of inhumane working system can only be done by machines, of course. Humans absolutely cannot stand it.

“Why not a lifetime buyout?”

Kitsuneya Nana was curious.

Aren’t the capitalists here too kind?

"Because there are sixty-five emperor-level mechanical beast pets in the β Mechanical Galaxy, they jointly formulated the Regulations for the Protection of Mechanical Life. Who taught you interstellar history?"

Alex frowned.

"Ling Bei Le." Kitsune Yaqi couldn't help but laugh. Isn't this a coincidence? It was so funny.

"He is currently working at Qilin High School, teaching me and Alice interstellar history. You think he knows him?"

Alex: “…”

Thinking of the famous "corpse"...

No, he had to find someone to give Alice extra lessons.

Alice in the distance: “Ah-chiu, ah-chiu!”
