My beast can't be a demon.

Chapter 16 [Absorb] The Real Power (Please collect! Please read!)
Hanabi's reaction was quick.

Compared to other plant-type pets whose reactions are always half as slow, the speed at which the trap it leaves behind releases [Vine Entanglement] can even keep up with a bison running at full speed.

However, a beast of this tonnage, even without extraordinary powers, cannot be restrained by vines by an ordinary first-level spirit beast when running at full speed.

The vines of fireworks just broke as soon as they hugged the bison's head.

Xiao Caocao refused to admit defeat.

However, due to the absolute difference in tonnage, even if its vines have the [Transportation] skill, they are unable to stop the bison running at full speed.

"Hanabi! Trip!" Zhou Lu saw that Huahuo was not convinced and hurriedly said.

The next second, the vines that rose from the ground tied up one of the bison's feet. The bison lost its balance in an instant and fell heavily to the ground, even sliding forward for a distance.

It tried to stand up, but Hanabi's trip just now broke its leg.

Of course Xu Wuhu would not miss the direct opportunity, and skillfully went up to harvest the bison's life.

"Wait a minute and give it to the merchant in the safe zone. It should be able to exchange it for one or two thousand dollars." Xu Wuhu laughed at Zhou Lu.

A few thousand dollars is actually nothing to Xu Wuhu. What’s more important is that the joy of such harvest is really fascinating.

Zhou Lu couldn't help but sigh, it was so simple, and he only earned one or two thousand yuan. No wonder everyone was trying their best to become a beastmaster.

But this is not what he is most concerned about right now.

Looking down at Huo Huo, Zhou Lu clearly felt a slight change in it at the moment it tripped the bison.

This feeling...had also appeared before when Hanabi had obtained the [Transport] skill from Touma Bee.

The bison is not a spiritual beast and therefore has no skills, so this feeling is most likely a bonus to its attributes.

Strength, defense, speed, luck... In theory, the attributes of any creature will have a specific value.

However, this kind of change, apart from the perception of performance, often requires growth calculation to give you specific values.

Zhou Lu could clearly feel that the branches and leaves of the fireworks had become thicker.

This feeling did not appear when Hanabi tripped the second bison.

This is normal, the ability to [absorb] is never 100%.

I just don't know whether this probability will benefit from luck or not.

Thinking of this, Zhou Lu's eyes fell on the system interface.

When Hua Huo used the sticky baby to hit Li Yi, the system gave Zhou Lu two rewards for failed tasks.

In the mission [Kill Li Yi], if he failed, Zhou Lu would be rewarded with a permanent random C-level skill card.

The failure reward for [Training Interference] gave Zhou Lu a one-time Beastmaster Skill Card.

This beastmaster's skill is not [Repay the Parents], but [Feed the Body].

[Body Feeding]: Beastmaster skill. Once a day, you reduce all your attributes by 30%, and the specific attributes of your designated pet will be increased by 100% for a period of time. (The increase time varies with the designated attribute, and the attributes of both parties will return to their original state after the increase ends)
Zhou Lu didn't quite understand. When only 10% of the task reward was given out, the skill would change from [Repaying the Deed] to [Feeding the Body].

But if Firefly's [Absorb] skill really benefits from luck, then using the effect of [Body Feeding] to double Firefly's luck seems to be a very good choice.

But to know this, we need a comparison.

Although hunting bison can absorb more attributes, hunting a bison is not something that Huo Huo can accomplish alone. In addition, the absorption is not 100% effective, so the efficiency is too low.

So Zhou Lu set his sights on the chipmunks that were scattered all over the grassland.

The chipmunk is a standard first-level spirit beast, but its true attributes are definitely not as good as the bison. Most spirit beasts surpass ordinary wild beasts because they have skills rather than attributes, especially when the size difference is so huge. For Hanabi, the chipmunk is undoubtedly easier to kill than the bison, which can be seen from Hanabi's performance just now.

During the break, Zhou Lu began to use the chipmunk to test the probability of fireworks [absorption].

He was basically certain that he would only feel something when he [absorbed] permanent skills or permanent attributes.

"You seem to be very interested in chipmunks?" Li Yi said, holding the sticky baby and watching Hua Huo constantly rolling up chipmunks from the grass.

"Yeah." Zhou Lu nodded without explaining much.

Li Yi thought for a moment and asked, "Are you sure you can catch the chipmunks without causing too much harm to them?"

Zhou Lu glanced at the fireworks.

Hua Huo is now very skilled at catching chips without harming their lives. Adhering to the principle of sustainable development, Zhou Lu released all the chipmunks he had caught: "I think it shouldn't be a big problem."

Li Yi suddenly smiled and said, "Then don't waste your labor. I have a very good business here, maybe I can make back the money from the tickets this time."

When Zhou Lu heard this, he immediately became interested.

Li Yi told Zhou Lu what he knew.

One of his father's cooperative companies wanted to buy a batch of chipmunks for testing new drugs.

The cost of artificially breeding spiritual animals is simply too high. Chipmunks are not high-value spiritual animals, nor are they endangered species. It is more economical to collect them from the wild.

As a first-level spiritual beast, its purchase price is not very low.

"How about it? Are you interested in participating?" Li Yi's eyes were shining when he said this, as if this matter was more worthy of his attention than training.

Zhou Lu suddenly felt that there was a reason why the two of them needed the squad leader's help.

If you have a little ambition in beast battle, you will choose a stronger beast, right? Even if there is a complete set of evolutionary routes at home, it is not impossible to contract a second pet.

This Li Yi obviously didn't focus on the combat system.

"But training..." Zhou Lu hesitated.

"Go! This kind of good thing is fleeting and you can't miss it!" Just as he was hesitating, Xu Wuhu's voice came over, "My brothers have taught me in different ways that opportunities are something that you will never get again once you miss them."

"Besides." Xu Wuhu gave Zhou Lu a thumbs up, "I feel like we've trained really well! It's more than enough to pass the exam and get a high score!"

No! We only trained for half a day! How come it’s more than enough?!
【Ding! mission completed! 】

[You successfully persuaded Xu Wuhu and others to give up grassland training, greatly reducing Zhou Lu's chances of passing the initial combat test.]

[The system has issued the reward, please check. 】

[Successfully activated the follow-up task: Exam interference]

*****
[Optional Task 7: Exam Interference]

[Task Introduction: The combat preliminary examination is the starting point for Zhou Lu's rise. With his outstanding performance in the examination, he obtained a large number of credits and was appreciated by Xu Yilong, laying the foundation for his entry into the pioneer army. Although you have successfully interfered with his training, you still cannot rule out the possibility that he will perform well in the examination. Please try to interfere with this combat preliminary examination.]

Am I the one who wants to stop them from training?! I am the passive party, okay?
