Chapter 14 - 14: Barry Turns Into Little Har
Chapter 14: Barry Turns Into Little Har
[Note: Ancient Simulation requires professional beast tamer level, and there are only two simulation opportunities per month, and each simulation consumes a large amount of physical strength.]
"Why didn't you mention the limitations before?!" Vincent Wolf seemed agitated and annoyed.
"And it also consumes a lot of physical strength..." He thought about the events in the morning and his face turned pale. This was just a "certain amount" of physical strength mentioned in the description. If it were a large amount, he would be drained of energy in an instant.
As for the new change in the [Simulation] Beast-controlling Talent, Vincent Wolf also had some guesses.
The Beast-controlling Talent was not unchangeable. Occasionally, there would be a phenomenon called Awakening of the Beast-controlling Talent, which would evolve the talent into another form or produce unknown changes.
This seemed to be the case now.
However, he was only a Level 2 Beast Tamer now. Although Barry's level up had given him a bit of spiritual feedback, he was still far from the level of a professional beast tamer, let alone unlocking this newly added Ancient Simulation.
"Barry's leveling up speed is so fast, I'm so envious." Vincent Wolf felt envious when he thought of Barry's leveling up speed.
Under normal circumstances, the promotion of pet beasts requires arduous training, combat experiences, complex and nutritious pet beast food that satisfies their needs, and the absorption of energy crystals.
These factors help improve the physical and energy strength of pet beasts, and eventually break through the self-imposed shackles, gradually increase their growth level, species level, and even higher levels of life form, reaching the transcendent level and beyond.
But Barry's promotion could be considered downright unreasonable.
The proficiency of pet beast skills is very difficult to improve. It usually takes at least half a year for a pet beast to master a low-level skill.
Each mastered skill would provide feedback to the pet beast itself, promoting its growth level.
It was not clear why, but Vincent Wolf had a very fast rate of mastering skills in the simulation.
It might be because practicing the skills with a human mindset accelerated the mastery of the skills, or it might be that Vincent Wolf was incredibly talented and naturally mastered the skills very quickly.
And then there was Barry's talent skill [Devour]. The skill enhances digestion, increases energy absorption thresholds, and reduces the risk of explosion.
Ordinary pet beasts don't swallow energy crystals whole, as their bodies can't withstand the enormous energy and may explode. They can only carry the crystals on their bodies and absorb the energy slowly.
But slimes don't have this risk. They directly engulf the crystals and digest them in less than a day.
Ordinary contracted pet beasts in a family may not reach Awakening Level 5 in a year or two.
Those with some money in their families will buy some special grade milk from Moo Moo cows. The energy contained in processed special grade milk is mild and easy to absorb. Drinking it regularly can increase the leveling speed of pet beasts to more than double.
As for the wealthy, that was beyond Vincent Wolf's imagination.
In the second simulation, the woman who defeated him came from a wealthy family. Not only did she have a low-level commander species pet beast, but she also fed it countless good things. Otherwise, Vincent wouldn't have been beaten so easily.
Upon thinking this, Vincent Wolf got angry. He didn't think he was a petty person, but he still wanted to get his revenge.
With his thoughts, the Contract Array appeared in the air, and Barry squeezed out of it and landed on the ground.
Feeling its intact body, Barry had already gotten used to the experience of dying and resurrecting.
"Barry, get me a glass of water, and remember, the temperature should be above 40 degrees Celsius, or else I'll cough."
"?" Barry tilted its head in confusion. Its spiritual wisdom had improved a lot after the three simulation memory infusions, but it didn't understand what Vincent Wolf was talking about.
"You're so stupid, what's the point of having you!" Vincent grumbled while closing his eyes to focus on recovering his physical strength. In a short while, he fell asleep again.After waking up again, two or three hours had already passed. He slowly got out of bed, struggling to move his sore body.
"I shouldn't start simulations early in the morning, otherwise, I'll be late for school. It's a waste of time, I should do the simulations at night."
He recalled letting Barry out before going to bed, so he sent several messages to Barry in the Beast Space to call him back.
In no time, Barry entered the bedroom with a cup of water on his head. Vincent Wolf saw the cup swaying but not falling off.
"Heh, you've grown!" Vincent was delighted.
He picked up the cup and took a sip. As expected, the water was cold.
After stretching his arms, Vincent lazily walked out of the bedroom, only to be shocked at the sight of his messy living room.
The living room was in complete disarray, as if floodwater had washed through it. The floor was even littered with the remains of broken glass.
"What the fuck!? Did a husky sneak into my house?"
Then, he came to his senses and saw Barry staring at him with big, innocent eyes. He lowered his head in despair.
"I regret giving you this name. I should've named you Little Husky."
He told Barry to continue with his training, while he dragged his tired body to clean up the house.
"I should buy an intelligent mechanic maid beast later. What does it look like, having to do chores when I'm rich now!"
After working hard for half a day, he finally managed to restore the house to its former cleanliness. As for the wet cushions and seats, he either hung them outside to dry or used a hairdryer to blow them.
Once Vincent finished, he went to the courtyard to check on Barry, who was training diligently.
Well done! A Beast Tamer works hard in simulations, and his pet beast works hard in reality to digest the fruits of his labor.
Finally done with everything, he collapsed onto his bed and began scrolling through his phone for another lazy day.
The short video platforms in this world were similar to those in his previous life, except they included more content about pet beasts. And powerful or cute beasts accounted for most of the traffic.
Whether singing or dancing, there were species within the pet beasts that were even more professional than humans. And even with just a simple connection, there were players like the Charm Demon Clan known for their professionalism.
Unfortunately, humans could only play a supporting role.
As someone who had never seen such a scene before, Vincent Wolf watched with great interest and occasionally gasped.
"This mermaid's singing is truly amazing."
"Wow, this Hell Demon Dragon is so handsome! I'm in love!"
"So, Charm Demons really have silver patterns, huh? I've learned something new."
"Hmm? There's another Devil's Domain? And it's not far from Los Angeles?" Vincent furrowed his brows at the news that appeared in front of him.
Most of the Mysterious Realms are located in different spaces, and humans can only enter after obtaining the coordinates. However, due to various reasons, a considerable number of Mysterious Realms are connected to the Main World. The connected portions become doors between the two worlds, known as Secret Realm Gates.
Devil's Domain is actually a type of Mysterious Realm, but without the existence of the Spirit of the Mysterious Realm. The entire realm is in a chaotic and confused state, and the living pet beasts are influenced by the environment, becoming extremely violent and bloodthirsty, usually known as Demon Beasts.
