Starting With Contract Pets Chapter 97 - Depressed Little Bloodworm

Chapter 97 - Depressed Little Bloodworm

"Okay, everyone! Quickly fill in the rewards you want on this piece of paper. Sign and leave your thumb marks after. I'll submit it and send you the bonus in three or four days' time."

Back in the lounge, Chen Bo spoke happily.

After knowing that Big River Town and Maple Leaf Town had two warlord pets, he thought that they were doomed in this compet.i.tion and truly did not expect to win in such a bizarre fas.h.i.+on.

He would naturally benefit from these five's win, so he was in an incredibly good mood.

Whatever Su Bai and the others wrote on the form was also a test.

Without hesitation, Su Bai wrote down that he wanted a treasure which could make his contract book turn silver.

The silver color corresponded to the warlord level. It was not too much to ask for such a treasure, was it?

Compared to other materials, the contract book advancement treasure was the rarest. Smart people would choose this without hesitation.

With a silver contract book, one would be rid of their trainee status and truly become an actual Pet Tamer. Only then would they be eligible to take the professional Pet Tamer licensure examination.

In addition, a silver contract book had two new abilities. First, it had a small s.p.a.ce for pets, so there was no need to bring all the pets around.

Second, it was telepathic, just like communicating with a thought; a Pet Tamer could instantly pa.s.s commands to their pet without shouting.

Only with these two abilities could a Pet Tamer be considered an actual one.

Thus, the reward for being the champion might seem difficult to choose, but the best choice was actually in front of them.

"Let me see yours!"

After writing her form, Chen Rouxue swapped it with his. They smiled upon seeing the same item on the form. Heroes were of one mind, indeed.

Soon, they handed their forms over to Chen Bo.

"s.h.i.+ Lei, I'll give you another piece of paper. You can change your item to a silver contract book advancement treasure."

Chen Bo originally thought that they all knew about this, but s.h.i.+ Lei had really surprised him.

The other four people had uniformly written the same item, all except this boy. If he were not in a good mood, he would not remind him.

"Silver contract book? There's such a thing?" asked s.h.i.+ Lei in shock. He had never thought of this.

He looked up at the others, but no one looked at him. He was so stupid that they felt distressed.

"Okay, this spring festival compet.i.tion meeting is finally over. After a few days, the results of the other districts and towns will be released. The city will then select reserve players for the city team based on everyone's individual performance. I'll let you know who gets selected by then.

"There's gonna be a celebration dinner in town tonight. Would you all like to attend? The leaders are sure to show up."

Chen Bo put the materials away into his portfolio.

"No, I'm not going. I'm too tired and want to rest." Su Bai rejected.

"I'm not going, either."

"I don't wanna go."

"Neither do I."

"I'll go."

The four of them looked up at s.h.i.+ Lei.

"Can't I?" The boy held his head up.

"Fine, then. s.h.i.+ Lei will be the representative." Chen Bo was too lazy to haggle with him.

The other four people took their things and left, and none of them took the special car to go back in town.

They could not take away the trophy of this compet.i.tion, either, for it would go to the exhibition hall in town. The only things they could take away were the champions.h.i.+p bracelets.

"How do you feel about being a champion?" asked Chen Ruoxue with a smile after leaving the gym.

"This isn't the first time; I'm only a bit excited. Maybe I'll be particularly excited when I win a provincial league champions.h.i.+p or a national league champions.h.i.+p.

"What I'm very excited about is the upcoming silver contract book." Su Bai looked down at the champions.h.i.+p bracelet made of special materials.

Some people might think that being a champion was nothing and would let their pets be in the limelight, instead. To them, it was better to be super big bosses.

However, not Su Bai, for he just wanted to see what it felt to obtain such supreme honors. He wanted to win one champions.h.i.+p after another and reach the pinnacle under others' gazes.

"Congratulations! You two are too strong," Yang Zhou walked over and said.

"Yes, I believe you'll become a legend in our school. The teachers will praise you again and again," Jiang Yang also congratulated them. The players of the five towns' spring festival compet.i.tion were all from Fourth Middle School, so the school teachers were definitely happy.

"Congratulations! Shall we celebrate tonight?" Chen Tingting said with a smile.

"I'm free," said Su Bai after thinking for a while.

"I am, too." Chen Ruoxue took off the bracelet and showed it to Yang Zhou and the others.

"Forget it. You guys go ahead. I have to train with my Little Conch in the afternoon." Yang Zhou declined to join the gathering.

"Same here. I have this desire to train after watching you win the champions.h.i.+p." Jiang Yang also shook his head and refused.

"What's up with you two?" The three were surprised.

"No, the two of us are now determined to work hard. We're afraid that the determination will disappear after the gathering. It's said that when one thing is done continuously for twenty-one days, it'll form a habit, so we are persisting."

Yang Zhou explained.

"Okay, then. You can do it; I'll go home and rest." Su Bai nodded.

With the gathering canceled, the six of them took the bus home.

"Take my brother back first; I have to deal with the advertising fee."

"Okay, let's go first." The others did not hesitate to leave.

After separating with them, Su Bai turned to find Liu Changchun, the director of the Green Fruit Plum Research Inst.i.tute.

"Oh, you're here. I've been waiting for you for quite some time," said Liu Changchun with a smile upon seeing him.

"You hired those beautiful girls, right? Were you deliberately trying to spread hate? How are we going to calculate the loss of my reputation?" asked Su Bai blankly.

Of course, he knew that Liu Changchun was afraid that his advertising would be ineffective and his money would be wasted, so he had quietly invited those fake fans.

"The young girls? Don't misunderstand; I really didn't ask any beautiful women to spread hate on you." Liu Changchun refused to admit it.

"Really? I'll have to find a senior in the Trainer a.s.sociation to help me check it."

Su Bai was not afraid, since he had a powerful figure behind him.

Upon hearing this, Liu Changchun hurriedly laughed. "You don't have to behave like this. It doesn't matter who it was; you already won the champions.h.i.+p and discredited them. Your strength is now beyond doubt.

"I'm very satisfied with this advertis.e.m.e.nt. I'll pay you three million in one settlement rather than the three months we agreed on. How's that?"

"Okay, thank you, Director Liu. I'll take my leave now." Su Bai stood up.

"Okay, go on."

As he watched the youth leave, Liu Changchun felt a little speechless. Were teenagers so difficult to deal with these days? However, that guy's background was too strong, so he could not settle him.

...

"Brother, you're back so soon?" asked Su Yue.

"Yeah, I do things quickly. Read your book first; I'll go upstairs."

Su Bai brought the cub and the Little Tyrant to the second floor.

Back in his bedroom, he quickly opened his backpack and took out the Little Bloodworm.

As soon as the box was opened, the Little Bloodworm spit out a silk thread to escape.

A bang was heard and a small spark appeared out of thin air. It burned the Little Bloodworm's silk thread.

Looking at the huge shadows on both sides of it, the Little Bloodworm showed a desperate expression and lay in the box as if it were dead.

Su Bai took out a large gla.s.s jar and motioned the cub to pick it up and put it inside.

"Howl~"

The cub reached out and threw the Little Bloodworm into the gla.s.s jar with a slapping sound. Frightened, it immediately defecated two small round black feces.

It was really fearful for its life.

Su Bai glanced at the cub, took out a delicious spiritual plant, and placed it in front of the bug. He grinned. "I have no malice. This is for you.

"Don't worry; they won't eat you, either."

Although this was a bug, it was also a low-level servant monster with a certain amount of wisdom.

The little bug glanced at him and then at the delicious young leaves. It turned its head, indicating that it would not eat these.

It felt like this meal would be its last, and they just wanted to fatten it up before eating it. This bug would not be fooled.

Moveover, it had already discovered that this youth was who brought it to this strange place, so it had remembered his face.

"Forget it; it's not important. Buddy, watch it and don't let it run away. I'll take a bath and go to sleep."

Su Bai was indeed really tired.

"Howl!" The cub nodded, indicating that it would watch the little bug well.

Gnawing on an ore, the Little Tyrant promised as well.

Su Bai went to take a shower in the bathroom. When he came out, the pets were still obediently guarding the little bug. He nodded in satisfaction and said, "You guys are free to move around; I'll go to sleep first."

At this moment, the Little Tyrant suddenly burst with spiritual power. A small spiritual power vortex appeared around it, and then it slowly disappeared.

It had been promoted to the high-level servant again.

"Roar! (* ̄) ̄*)"

It looked happily at Su Bai.

"Do you feel stronger than last time's breakthrough?" he asked.

"Roar!" The Little Tyrant nodded.

"Okay, then. You can kill a few more blood monsters if you have the chance." He took out a medicinal cake to reward it.

Nodding, the Little Tyrant happily gobbled up the medicinal cake.

Su Bai lay in bed and put on his blindfold to rest. Having spent the afternoon in the Scarlet Monster Wilderness, he was now completely exhausted.

While Su Bai slept, the Little Tyrant leaned back on a volcanic rock pile and ate the medicinal cake as the cub lay in bed to play games.

As time pa.s.sed, the cub fell into the gaming world with its headphones, while the Little Tyrant fell asleep while hugging the volcanic rock.

The Little Bloodworm in the gla.s.s jar looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to it. It tried spitting out a silk thread, and when n.o.body paid it attention, it prepared its escape.

Desperate to escape this h.e.l.l-like place, it spat a silk thread onto the window and swung out in escape.

After ten minutes, the cub finished playing the game and was stunned to see the empty gla.s.s jar. Was the little bug gone?

"Howl!"

It quickly woke up the Little Tyrant, which looked at the empty gla.s.s jar in shock. Oh, no! Did the little bug run away?

They looked at the window and jumped out without saying a word. They searched in the yard and finally saw the Little Bloodworm on the water plants in the fish tank.

"Howl! (▼皿▼#)"

"Roar! (╬◣д◢)"

Both pets glared at the Little Bloodworm with their teeth bared. How dare you run away? If not for the s.h.i.+eld around the yard, Ah Bai would scold us!

With a slam, the Little Bloodworm was thrown onto the gra.s.s. The Little Tyrant raised its claw to summon a flame, while the cub summoned a vine whip. They unanimously decided to give the little guy a lesson.

The Little Bloodworm was tied by the vine whip like a prisoner.

Flames scorched on both sides of the little bug, and it watched as the two pets performed a 3D movie in front of it.

The cub and the Little Tyrant found some green caterpillars, which were eating the flowers and leaves. After putting them into a gla.s.s jar, two of these caterpillars ran out.

"Roar! (`ー ́)"

The Little Tyrant raised its hand and summoned a small flame, which it hurled at the green caterpillar and burned it to death.

The cub smashed a poisonous vine onto the other green caterpillar. Terrifying poison broke out, and the green caterpillar died slowly in a painful struggle.

Immediately afterward, all the green caterpillars which tried to flee were brutally killed by the cub and the Little Tyrant in front of the Little Bloodworm.

The bug was so frightened that it trembled. It was not sad about the death of ordinary bugs but was afraid that it would become the next victim. It understood that these two demons were letting itself know the cost of running away.

After doing all this, the two pets turned to look at the Little Bloodworm with satisfaction. They took it back to the second floor and put it into the gla.s.s jar.

This time, the Little Bloodworm would never run away again. It was too terrifying.

The cub stuffed tender leaves in front of it and motioned for it to eat. Frightened, the Little Bloodworm dared not disobey and gnawed on a leaf with tears.

It had completely accepted its fate and would never run away again. It gnawed on a leaf in depression, staring blankly at the white ceiling in the room.

The pets did not care about the bug anymore, as long as it did not run away again.

In the evening when Su Bai woke up, the two pets were not at home, so he quickly got up to check on the Little Bloodworm.

"Huh, it's so obedient? It even ate the leaves?" He looked at the Little Bloodworm inside in shock.

"Here, this is for you." He dropped another tender leaf soaked in water.

The Little Bloodworm took a look and slowly started eating. It realized that, compared to the two demons, this larger-size human was significantly better and even wet the leaves for it.

Su Bai looked at the bug, turned around to wash his face, and walked out to see his two pets practicing with each other in the backyard. Although they were half playing, he still felt relieved.

Sure enough, training had become easier for the two pets.

"Brother, mom came back and said that we'll celebrate your champions.h.i.+p tonight. She asked what you wanna eat." Su Yue asked as he ran upstairs.

"Whatever you want," said Su Bai. He did not really care about the champions.h.i.+p and was fine with anything as long as his parents were happy.

During dinner, he told his parents the details about the contest.

"You're so impressive to raise three million in sponsors.h.i.+p fees. You're much better than I was back then," said his father in admiration.

"Of course. When did you officially own a silver contract book? Our son will be obtaining it soon." Mother Su glanced at her husband sideways.

Su Bai calculated inwardly while he ate. This time, he had earned a lot of money and would not need to worry about the cub and the Little Tyrant's rations for at least a month or so.

His primary goal for the next step was to raise Purple Jade's level to warlord and then buy some skills for the two pets. He would polish and cultivate their abilities first before setting out to explore the Scarlet Monster Wilderness once more.
