My beast is not an evil god.

Chapter 3: Mark of Nightmare!

Lu Yu exited the chaotic space, and the dense peach forest like pink clouds came into view again.

As the breeze blows, the peach blossoms rustle, flutter and dance, resonating with the music of spring.

“Truly understand!”

Lu Yu muttered silently in his heart, and in the center of his star-like pupils, the silver vines on the silver key spread and intertwined, turning into a nebula-like eye pattern that overlapped each other, just like the double pupils in mythology.

The originally handsome face now had a hint of mystery and weirdness.

After opening the Eye of Truth, his vision improved significantly, and the world in his eyes also changed accordingly!
[Fifteen-year-old peach tree, transplanted, growing well...]

[Twenty-five-year-old peach tree, transplanted, with insects on the trunk. It is recommended to use insecticide...]

[Ladybugs feed on nectar and rotten plants...]

[Strange peach blossom frog, the evolution of peach blossom frog, has been listless since pregnancy,...]

[Peach pig, two years old, pregnant, spine height 1.5 meters, body length 2.7 meters, weight... Feeding during pregnancy can increase favorability, and feeding the cubs with a drink made from peach blossom nectar can prevent childhood illness...]

All objects appeared with data descriptions in his eyes, including year, growth status, and even more methods of breeding peach pigs...

He took the initiative to apply to raise pigs, of course not to escape reality, or to contract a mobile food that could be taken away and eaten at any time.

The real purpose is to accumulate original capital for oneself.

After experiencing the "Twisted Sun" incident, Lu Yu was not sure whether the city he was in was real, so he remained wary of everyone.

So after his injury healed, the talent he reported to school was not [Eye of Truth] but [Affinity for Beasts].

It was a way for him to keep a trump card, and he was also afraid that someone would target him.

However, hiding one's shortcomings does not mean that one should indulge in depravity.

Especially when his parents were on a mission, they bought a large number of props, resulting in not much money left in the house, with only 130,000 Alliance Coins left.

It's not a small amount, but it's not enough to support him to go too far on the path of Beast Tamer.

If you want to become stronger, you need to find a way to make money.

Therefore, after screening many projects, Lu Yu set his sights on Taozhu.

A lower ecological species with blue skin and pink mane on its back. It is spiritually stable and not easily deformed.

Peach Pigs are not very strong and their feed is not expensive, but because they taste great and can replenish a lot of energy and blood and strengthen muscles and bones after eating, they have always been the favorite food of powerful carnivorous pets.

In addition, some special beast evolution conditions require the consumption of a large number of peach pigs.

The peach pig is located near Dayuan City and is a characteristic species of the ecological secret realm of Taohua Township. It is at the bottom of the ecological niche.

It is not difficult for an ordinary beastmaster to capture a few, but if they plunder in large quantities, it is easy to attract some extraordinary life forms that are protecting their food to chase and kill them. Therefore, the price on the market is quite high, no less than two-star materials.

Since there is a market, naturally there will be smart people who choose to raise peach pigs in captivity. They begin by transplanting peach seedlings from Taohua Township and spend a lot of time capturing dozens of pairs of peach pigs in batches for large-scale breeding.

However, many people did not expect that although the peach pig is a pig, it is two and a half stars difficult to raise.

Peach pigs feed on the roots and nectar of peach trees. They are relatively intelligent and resist being kept in captivity. Once they find themselves imprisoned, they will become depressed, which will affect their fertility and meat growth. They may even choose to commit suicide, resulting in a complete loss of all their money.

But it is not worth hiring a high-level cultivation master for this purpose. Not only will there be no profit, but there is even the possibility of losing money.

But at this point a large amount of money had already been invested in building the peach orchard and purchasing breeding pigs and piglets. Giving up halfway was not an option. It had become a hot potato and very troublesome.

Lu Yu took the opportunity to pretend to have the talent of [Beast Affinity] and actively applied for it, and naturally won the project easily.

However, because he did not contract the first beast, it took spiritual energy to open his [Eye of Truth], so he could only open it intermittently. But he also gained a lot of information by watching pig movies.

Although Peach Pigs are highly intelligent, they will accept feeding during the first month of pregnancy, and if properly cared for during this period, they will be more likely to develop a sense of closeness, and the newborn Peach Pigs will be more affectionate, thus growing meat and reproducing.

With this as the direction, Lu Yu collected the breeding data of Peach Pig, and with the help of the ability of [Eye of Truth], he compiled the "Peach Pig Postpartum Care Manual".

An ecological system has been established in which duckweed cleans up excrement and peach spotted frogs clean up pests.

Especially when a large number of peach blossom frogs gather together, it is easy to give birth to the musical servant pet [Peach Blossom Drum Frog], or even the rare undead system leader pet [Ghost Face Curse Frog].

The latter is too unlikely to happen, but the former can be sold as an ancillary product, which is equivalent to opening up another way to make money. Under the new ecological system, the number of peach piglets has increased significantly.

If placed on the earth, he would at least be awarded a banner that reads “Little Expert in Pig Farming”!

After waiting for another two months for the number of peach piglets to double, Lu Yu can use the results to verify the data and determine whether he can use the manual to train a group of people to carry out large-scale peach pig breeding.

The peach pigs, which have a price but no market, can be turned into large-scale, assembly-line products.

He naturally couldn't keep the profits by himself, and since he had the [Eye of Truth], there was no need to rush, it was very easy for him to make money.

His goal was to use this achievement to negotiate with the school in exchange for a pet cub with leadership potential (gold), or at least a top elite pet as his first beast.

"But... it's too late!" Lu Yu sighed.

Recently, the frequency of Taiyang's nightmares has increased, and it has even begun to affect his mental state. It is obviously abnormal.

"Since the Eye of Truth works on everything, maybe it can see my current problem!"

Thinking of this, he used the selfie mode of his phone's camera, using the front camera as a mirror, and took a look at himself. Sure enough, the upgraded Eye of Truth saw a new negative buff entry.

[Mark of Nightmare: As a mortal, you accidentally glimpsed the essence of the sun and many ancient "beasts", and unexpectedly your soul did not collapse because you were as weak as an ant and were not discovered by them.

But the images you saw are themselves forbidden knowledge that mortals cannot touch or know. These memories turn into seeds, taking root deep in your soul, exuding the sweet scent of ancient knowledge, and you are powerless to protect yourself, and have become a special cursed flower.

Mortals should not peek into taboos.

The scent of the flower attracted the attention of a nightmare beast, and it paid a huge price to plant a nightmare seed for you from a distance as a mark. From then on, nightmares will become more frequent until your soul collapses, and that's when it will enjoy its feast. 】

[Your dream is like a deep sea, slowly drowning you.]

After reading it, Lu Yu's face was extremely shocked.

Those shadows emerging from the distorted sunlight turned out to be ancient "beasts"!
Could it be that these ancient beings are also beastmasters?

What level of life is this "beast"? Just one look at it polluted all of his memories and turned them into a curse!
Why are these guys wrapped in crimson chains all over their bodies, and what are they sharing?
Is the picture you see from this moment in time?

All kinds of doubts swirled in Lu Yu's mind, giving him a splitting headache, but no one could answer them for him.

Moreover, compared to these unknowable mysterious existences, they are so strange and mysterious, so high up that they don’t even pay attention to themselves, a small ant.

However, the slight spiritual pollution they spread became a curse that robbed him of his mortal life.

An invisible and intangible nightmare beast has set its sights on him.

As the nightmare continues to deepen, it will eventually appear and devour your soul!

His life is already counting down!

After many checks, no traces of nightmares were found, which means that it is very likely that the curse of peeping taboos is taking effect. Others cannot help him and can only think that he is crazy!
As for the powerful Beast Tamer, I don’t even have the qualifications to know him, so how can I ask him to take action?

Especially since he was an ant, he had attracted the nightmare beast. If a powerful beastmaster took action and saw this memory, would it trigger a more terrifying curse and attract the attention of the "beast"?

Even if not, after a thorough inspection, the [Key to Truth] is likely to be exposed. Faced with a step to godhood, how many people can remain calm?

He didn't dare to gamble on other people's kindness and just wanted to take his destiny into his own hands.

Therefore, Lu Yu must first become a beastmaster and unlock more abilities of the Key of Truth to see if he can find a way to break the impasse.

Lu Yu unlocked his phone and opened the "Dingzi" app.

I ignored a bunch of spam messages asking people to send “received” or “check in” as if they were ordering servants, and found a pinned contact.

The note is [Student Council President]!
[Twilight Crow: President, I would like to ask you for a favor! ]

Twilight Crow is his ID, just like a crow in the twilight, quietly waiting for the night to fall.

I thought I would have to wait a while, but the message was replied immediately.

[Student Council President: Good! ]

[Twilight Crow: I hope to use the gold medal in the name of the school to exchange for a pet from the official website.]
