"chameleon!"

Lele pointed at the chameleon in the cage and shouted with a little excitement. No wonder he recognized it, because among the toys Yu Chang bought for him was a small chameleon pillow, and he liked to run around the guesthouse with the pillow when he had nothing to do.

"This chameleon? It doesn't look like a chameleon at all. Will it attack people?"

"These scales look like gems. They are so beautiful."

"Look, there's a collar around its neck too, so it should be fine."

"Why is he lying there motionless? Could he be dead?"

"This is not a chameleon, this is clearly a mutant lizard. What are you looking at? Don't you see that its tail and head are obviously different from those of a chameleon?"

Seeing the various discussions about the lizard in the crowd, the man was actually very satisfied with the attention the product in his hand had received, so he nodded to another person in the store, and that person immediately opened the cage.

The mutant lizard did not leave the cage immediately. Instead, it opened its eyes, and its sapphire eyeballs rolled around before closing again.

"Oh, why are its eyes blue? Like a gem." A girl covered her mouth but couldn't help but took a step forward, as if she wanted to see it more clearly.

Not only this girl, there were several other people who couldn't help but get closer after seeing the lizard's eyes, and most of them were girls. It might also be because women are naturally unable to resist jewel-like items.

The man stretched out his arm to make an interception gesture, then smiled at everyone, "Don't worry, let me introduce my pet first. This is indeed not a chameleon, but a mutant lizard we found on the southern border. There is no definite research on this creature in the mutant creature encyclopedia, but in a small circle we call this creature a 'seven-colored lizard'. As you can see, the scales covering its body have seven or eight colors. In the daytime, it looks like a colorful gem."

"I remember there seemed to be a similar lizard in the mutant creatures encyclopedia before. It's not a rare mutant creature." A fat man in a baseball cap said with some disapproval.

The man was not in a hurry, but nodded with a smile: "This gentleman should be talking about the tri-colored lizard. The tri-colored lizard is an F-level mutant creature. It is not uncommon in the market, but because it is difficult to raise and has a harsh living environment, its commercial value is not high. But as you have just seen, I am introducing the seven-colored lizard. The scales on its body are more colorful and more beautiful, and the number is rare. According to statistics, the number of seven-colored lizards discovered in China is less than 200, and it has been determined to be a D-level mutant creature."

"D-level? And it's a rare mutant creature. The price should be quite expensive, right?"

"Boss, don't D-level mutants pose a certain threat to humans and other creatures? As far as I know, mutants that are currently suitable for humans to keep as pets should be F-level or below. Mutants of D-level and above need to be reviewed or registered by relevant departments. Are you sure you can take this pet out? Will the relevant departments forbid you to keep it in captivity after you buy it?" The person asking the question was obviously very familiar with the relevant regulations in the base, and as soon as this question came out, many people immediately followed suit.

In fact, the man's issue is very crucial, just like when she took Aoao and Tutu to the relevant departments for inspection, if the two dogs had not suppressed the supernatural aura in their bodies, they might not have been able to pass the inspection smoothly. At present, the relevant information on the two dogs' pet cards is still F-level creatures, but in fact, the strength of the two dogs has long reached A-level.

At present, the base has regulations that mutant creatures above level C cannot be taken out, and it is also stipulated that unregistered mutant creatures are not allowed to be kept in private. Even so, there are still many wealthy people who keep mutant creatures in private, and even use mutant creatures for illegal transactions.

The temperature has now gradually returned to normal and the extreme cold has completely faded away. I heard from Xu Hang that their guild has also begun to enter other forests, and even planned to enter the dangerous area of ​​the northern forest for hunting. The base is also beginning to plan for a hunting tournament in August this year. It is said that this year's hunting tournament is the largest one ever. Not only the Jiangcheng base, but also Kyoto and other bases will send people here, and there will even be international hunters participating. It is considered the largest hunting competition in the country's history.

But that's all later. The current focus is how the mutant creatures sold in the store got a license. This is indeed intriguing, but it is not ruled out that the store itself was opened by someone with powerful connections, so they can open a store in the dungeon with such brazenness.

"If this colorful lizard is really that rare, it must be very expensive, right?" someone couldn't help but ask.

The boss smiled and said, "Although the number of colorful lizards is scarce, there is a disadvantage, that is, this kind of creature does not have a crystal core. Secondly, if the method of captivity is not correct or the environment does not meet the standards, the scales of the colorful lizard will gradually lose their luster and eventually turn gray. In this way, not only will the value of the colorful lizard be greatly reduced, but its life span will also be shortened by half. Normally, the life span of a colorful lizard is five years, but if its scales all turn gray, it can only live for three months to six months at most."

"I thought the scales could be turned into gems after being plucked off, but it turns out that it's just the color that looks like gems. After all, it's just an ornamental pet."

"You, aren't pets meant to be viewed or to provide emotional value? What? You're still thinking this colorful lizard is a treasure trove, and you can sell it for diamonds just by plucking a scale? If that were the case, the boss wouldn't be willing to sell it."

These words caused many people around to burst into laughter, and the man who had complained earlier immediately curled his lips in annoyance.

The man looked at the others and continued, "You can pay with points in our store, or you can exchange for crystal cores. Basically, the prices are clearly marked. Another point is that the goods traded in our store are living things and therefore cannot be returned or exchanged. If your pet has other problems, you can come to the store for consultation at any time. In the first three months, the pet will be cleaned and maintained for free. Major problems will be charged appropriately. When purchasing, both the buyer and the seller need to sign a contract to ensure the authenticity of the transaction."

"Hey, boss, you run this store like buying a house, and you even set up a contract?"

"I think this is a good point. Only with a contract can both parties be protected."

The man stopped talking at this time, but turned around and entered the iron cage to pick up the colorful lizard, which surprised everyone. The lizard looked to be over 100 pounds, and the man seemed to hold it easily, so it seemed that he was not an ordinary person.

The colorful lizard's tail dragged on the ground, and its scales sparkled like fine glass fragments. Everyone was amazed at the beauty before them.

After the man showed the colorful lizard, he put it back into the cage and said to the onlookers with a smile, "If you are interested, you can come into the store and have a look. We also have different kinds of pets. Today is the first day of opening. Except for the precious items with blue signs, all other items are 10% off. By the way, the items with gray cards are reserved or not for sale."

Seeing the man turn around and enter the store, others also swarmed into the store.

Lele had wanted to go in a long time ago, so she shook Gu Tongwan's hand and urged: "Sister, let's go in quickly."

Gu Tongwan couldn't persuade Lele and could only be dragged into the store with him.

However, as soon as I stepped into the store, I was greeted by a burst of warm air. I didn't expect that the store actually had central air conditioning installed. This is very expensive. The environment in the store is also unusual. It is more like a stylish bar than a pet shop. The store is lit with lights of various colors, purple, blue and yellow intersecting, giving the illusion of being in a bar.

This was indeed beyond Gu Tongwan's expectations. He had originally thought that most pet shops would be brightly lit places filled with various odors, but he did not expect that not only was there no odor here, there was even a faint scent of incense, and there were incense sticks still burning in the four corners.

"This incense can soothe the emotions of mutant creatures. It is made of special materials and will react to the pheromones in the mutant creatures' bodies. But please rest assured that this type of substance is ineffective on humans and does not have any side effects. Similar products are also sold in our store." The man standing in the middle probably saw that someone was curious about the incense, so he explained.

Gu Tongwan was originally holding Lele's hand, but unexpectedly the child was so curious that he was attracted by a huge goldfish tank in front of him. He broke free from Gu Tongwan's hand and ran over.

"Le Le..." Gu Tongwan called out, but still failed to stop Le Le from sticking his whole body to the goldfish bowl and observing the colorful fish inside.

It would be better to say that this is a huge water wall rather than a goldfish tank. After all, the entire fish tank seems to be embedded in the wall. It is at least two meters high and more than four meters wide. The fish swimming inside are only about the size of a palm, but the strange thing is that these fish are transparent, and lenses of different colors can be vaguely seen in their bodies. The source of the glow is probably from these lenses.

"This is an F-grade rainbow fish. What you see inside its body is the crystal core of this fish. But unlike other mutant creatures, the crystal core of the rainbow fish is not valuable because it is too low and the individual is too small. But this type of fish is highly ornamental and easy to survive, so it is highly recommended that you buy it as a decoration or ornamental creature." The man walked to the front of the fish tank, turned around with a smile and gave a detailed explanation to the people gathered in front of the fish tank.

I have to say that the man is quite patient. He behaved like a qualified businessman from the moment he entered the store. He answered all the questions of the customers and provided thoughtful service.

The rainbow fish is just as its name suggests, colorful and with its own special effects. The appearance of this fish is very similar to a certain species of goldfish before the end of the world, especially the tail part which looks like gauze and flutters gently when swimming, which looks very beautiful.

Several girls in the store couldn't help but take out their mobile phones to take pictures. It is estimated that this pet shop will soon become a "net celebrity check-in point" in the underground city.

However, this store is unexpectedly large. From the outside, I thought the store was only a hundred square meters, but I didn’t expect the store to be very spacious and wide. It seems that the first floor is at least three or four hundred square meters, and it has two floors.

Gu Tongwan saw that Lele was still in front of the goldfish tank, so he turned around and looked away. At this time, the number of people on the first floor was gradually decreasing. It seemed that everyone had run to the second floor. There were only about seven or eight people on the first floor.

All the mutant creatures in the store are kept in transparent glass boxes. From what we can see so far, there are no large mutant beasts in the store. The giant Pomeranian just now is already considered a relatively large mutant animal on sale in the store.

Gu Tongwan's attention was suddenly attracted by a bird of unknown species in the glass box.

This bird is all black and is about the size of a falcon. At first glance, it looks so black that you might think it is a mutant crow. But if you look closely, apart from the color of its feathers, its appearance is completely different from that of a crow, especially the shape of its wings and beak, which are more similar to those of an eagle.

"This is a Black Falcon, a mutated type of falcon. Generally speaking, the Black Falcon belongs to a C-level mutant beast, but for some reason this Black Falcon cannot complete the last step of mutation, and its size and body shape have not developed normally. So it has been left in the store since it was caught, and this little thing has been refusing to be fed. In the long run, no one knows how long it can live." The man who looked like the boss outside happened to come in from downstairs, so he introduced the store with a smile, but then rushed out of the store in a hurry because of a sudden phone call.

Gu Tongwan did not feel that he was being neglected because of the other party's behavior, but

Gu Tongwan seemed to have seen someone posting a picture of a Black Falcon on the forum, but the size of the Black Falcon was at least one size larger than the one he saw now. Moreover, the price tag on this one said it was an F grade, and it was also identified as a "defective product" and sold for less than 2,000 points. In the store, it was even more incomparable to the Rainbow Fish, which was of the same lowest grade and cost 1,500 points.

She had seen the Black Falcon on the black market. At that time, the selling price of one was nearly 20,000 points. After all, the Black Falcon had a C-level crystal core in its body, and its value was self-evident.

But now the price of this black falcon is less than one tenth of its original value, and seeing how it is dying, anyone who buys it would be a big fool, so the store probably has no hope of selling it, otherwise they would not have specially written "defective product" on it.

Perhaps because he saw her lingering in front of the glass case of the Mo Falcon, a staff member wearing a uniform vest walked up to her and asked, "Hello, if you are interested, this product can be discounted."
