BXBX NOVEL Chapter 115 - 109: Pet Contract
Four-tailed Crimson Fox paused for a moment, as if thinking of something, and then said, The name is not that important, you can call me Fifi.
Fifi?
Upon hearing the name, David Jones was somewhat surprised and looked carefully at the four-tailed crimson fox in front of him.
Is there a problem with that name?
Fifis eyebrows wrinkled, his eyes flashing with doubt.
No, then Ill call you Fifi from now on! David Jones nodded in satisfaction.
Fiery red fur covered his body, gleaming brilliantly under the sunlight, shining like the sun or the stars.
Are you a bit too arrogant, kid?
Looking at the young man in front of him, Fifi spat a flame out of his mouth and raised his head haughtily, his tone very dissatisfied.
Rainbow noticed this and immediately became more focused, causing ripples to form within the surrounding space.
Unexpectedly, a space-class Flood Dragon, no wonder you have the confidence to trade with me. The four-tailed crimson fox was shocked.
The difference in strength between them was too great. If they were to fight, he was confident that he could defeat the pureblood Flood Dragon in a short time, but space-class Flood Dragons were exceptions.
Pets who have mastered Space Instant Teleportation can make multiple space jumps in an instant, a powerful technique for escaping danger that even he cannot catch up with.
Furthermore, he could only move within Lava Mountains summit.
David Jones was slightly taken aback, it seemed that this kind of flattering method was ineffective against Fifi.
Sorry, it was my inappropriate choice of words. Since the transaction is completed, I will take my leave. David Jones apologized after a moments hesitation.
Damn, it seems that he couldnt touch that fluffy, red fur today!
Strange human! Feeling David Jones slightly depressed mood, Fifi, who could sense emotions, was somewhat puzzled.
However, compared to other trainers who challenged him right away, this young man left a better impression on Fifi!
Wait, do you want the other Redcloud Flower? He called out to David Jones.
David Jones stopped in his tracks, a look of surprise flashing across his eyes, You still have Redcloud Flowers?
Of course. Fifi casually smiled.
I only have a few Snow Ginsengs on me, and anymore will be gone! David Jones coughed lightly and then spoke with a wry smile.
He only carried a small number of Snow Ginsengs on him, while the rest were grown in Lolos Herbal Space.
Speaking of which, he hadnt seen her for a day and he wondered if Lolo and Daphne were adapting well to the Herbal Space these last two days?
This time, there is no need for bartering, Fifi said seriously.
Then what do you need? David Jones asked in surprise.
As an ordinary Trainer, he had nothing on him that a Class IV Elite Beast would covet.
Exchange with information! Fifi subconsciously glanced at the sky, his tone becoming somber.
David Jones:???
Is this four-tailed crimson fox trying to make me into a mole even though Im broadcasting the competition live?
Hesitating a little, David Jones asked, What information?
He wanted to know what this fox was going to do!
Considering your strength, where do you rank among the trainers who have entered the Dungeon this time?
Huh?
David Jones hesitated for a moment, as this question was utterly unexpected.
Its a sharp question, he said, scratching his head in embarrassment.
Is it difficult to answer? Fifi blinked his black fox eyes.
Is it just this question or are there many others? David Jones tried to clarify.
Only three questions, this is the first one.
Top ten, David Jones said modestly, stroking the vigilant Rainbow on his neck.
Fifi thoughtfully nodded.
Besides elixirs, are the Magic Cores on Beasts also your targets?
Yes.
David Jones breathed a sigh of relief, as he could answer such simple questions.
What about the third question?
Fifis eyes darkened, and after hesitating for a while, he finally said: Can the beasts in the Dungeon leave with the humans?
Upon hearing that, David Jones looked at Fifi with surprise, wondering what this sudden twist meant.
Could it be that he might actually be able to take a top-grade Elite away from the Dungeon?
Yes, but only for trainers who have contracted beasts. Uncontracted beasts are not allowed to be taken out of the Dungeon.
David Jones continued, Considering your current Class IV lower-level strength, none of the trainers who entered the Dungeon this time would be able to contract you, unless they give up their Initial Pets.
All the participants in this Trainer Competition were geniuses from various cities, and it was almost impossible for them to give up their Initial Pets.
Moreover, Fifis strength was so strong!
Except for a few Beast Taming Geniuses whose Arcane Stars reached Class III, none of the other trainers with only a Class II Arcane Star would dare to take on such a huge risk contracting a Four-tailed Crimson Fox.
Under a two-class strength disparity, even a sturdy Beast Taming Contract would become a fragile piece of paper, easily torn apart.
In this case, arent the pets they had nurtured since their Fresh state more attractive compared to the unfamiliar Dungeon beasts?
Understood! A lazy voice suddenly sounded.
I was just asking, the remaining Redcloud Flower is yours, Fifi said before turning around and going back into the cave.
The next moment, a ruby-like elixir suddenly flew out of the cave.
After carefully saving the elixir in front of him, David Jones fell deep in thought.
Its a pity that if it werent for the Trainer Competition rules and the fact that Fifis presence might be too dangerous, he would have wanted to take the elegant and cute Four-tailed Crimson Fox with him.
Beasts like this, which grow up in Dungeons and are of Elite-class, may be very strong but pose a considerable risk of backlash to initially weak trainers.
In pursuit of strength, some trainers would even use beasts without signing a Beast Taming Contract.
As a result, unless a Beast Taming Contract has already been signed, the Trainer Guild generally does not allow trainers to take beasts out of the Dungeon.
Lets go look for resources elsewhere. Patting Rainbow on his neck, David Jones felt a wave of regret in his heart.
In the end, he still couldnt touch that fluffy fur.
Rainbow glanced at the dark cave and transformed into a dragon, quickly expanding in size.
After David Jones rode Rainbow into the sky and disappeared as a black dot, a red figure suddenly emerged from the cave.
Inside the competition viewing hall:
David Jones points skyrocketed from 6,855 to 38,500, propelling his ranking from around 40th to second place.
At this time, Snow Clark ranked first with a total of 41,600 points.
Nixon Lowell had fallen to third place with 37,100 points.
Noticing the drastic changes on the leaderboard, the city presidents in the audience turned their gazes toward David Jones on the big screen, wearing mixed expressions on their faces.
This year, we have another dark horse! Which city does this genius David Jones come from?
