Beast Taming Begins with the Inner Circle of Pets

Chapter 154 Kapibala

Lin Manman glanced at the other person subtly; it seemed he was convinced that he had come to buy a spirit beast for fighting.

His words implied that he wanted her to see the spirit beasts captured from the secret realm.

Even a fool could guess that these spirit beasts must be extremely expensive.

Unfortunately, he was going to be disappointed; she didn't want to go to the beast-fighting event, and naturally, she wouldn't buy what he wanted to recommend.

She simply felt that there were many spirit beasts here, and their origins were diverse, giving her a greater chance of finding something worthwhile.

The group then strolled to the next area.

"Although the spirit beasts here are generally of a higher level, they have been kept in the breeding base for too long, so their fighting desire is not as strong as that of wild spirit beasts and spirit beasts in secret realms. Most of them do not have a combative personality."

The man originally planned to take Lin Manman and the others for a casual stroll around the area, with a focus on the last section.

Unexpectedly, Lin Manman stopped walking. When Wu Jingyu saw her gaze fall on a spirit beast, she turned her head to look and found that it was a... big rat?

Wu Jingyu might not recognize this spirit beast, but in Lin Manman's past life, it had a resounding name: Kapibala!

When Lin Manman saw this spirit beast, which was about fifty centimeters long, covered in yellowish-brown fur, with a vacant look in its eyes, and exuding an aura of "if you can live, you live; if you can't live, you die," she almost couldn't help but laugh out loud.

You should know that the capybara that looks exactly like it was a famous Buddhist spiritual leader and a synonym for emotional stability in her previous life.

Of course, Lin Manman couldn't help but stare at it, not only because of its unique temperament, but also because she saw interesting skills and talents on its panel.

Species: Macrophage

Grade: High Bronze

Level: 2

Status: Growing stage (6 months)

Bloodline: Low-level mythical ear mouse (extremely low)

Talent: Mental Pollution: Can pollute enemies within a certain range based on the strength of one's own mental power, causing the enemy's mind to synchronize with the body.

Skill: 1. Poison Resistance: Immune to all poison-related negative effects, and greatly reduces poison damage.

2. Bite: Attacks using sharp teeth. (Upgradeable)

3. Bubbles: Can envelop itself in bubbles, granting immunity to some damage, or trap targets within the bubbles. (Upgradeable)

4. Hypnosis: The target can be hypnotized through eye contact. (Upgradeable)

5. Immovable as a Mountain: Enters a meditative state, bringing all creatures within a 10-meter radius into a meditative state. This state grants immunity to all control effects and all damage for five seconds. However, once used, this state cannot be re-entered for a short period. (Upgradeable)

Basic attributes:

Qi and blood: 120

Spirit: 458

Soul: 100

Contract Status: Contractable

Lin Manman never expected that a bronze-level spirit beast would not only possess talent but also be able to comprehend domain skills.

Moreover, the talent of mental pollution is very interesting. If she guesses correctly, after the target's mind is assimilated, it should be able to calm all of the target's personal emotions, making the target's emotions the same as those of this giant capybara.

Assuming the capybara's emotions remain stable, the assimilated target is unlikely to have any extreme emotions or thoughts.

Lin Manman touched her chin, feeling that this was a skill that could be put to great use.

Seeing that Lin Manman had suddenly stopped and was staring at the most famous meat rat at the breeding base, the man quickly explained, "This spirit beast is the most popular breed to be raised by various breeding bases because it grows quickly, is large in size, has a high meat yield, and is easy to breed."

"I heard that it's because when many people at the breeding farm wanted to harm it, they would inexplicably soften and let it go. In the end, the people at the breeding farm couldn't bear to see it being slaughtered, so they sold it to us."

"However, these spirit beasts are mostly used as food. Their attack capabilities and combat awareness are too poor, so they are not suitable for use in beast fighting. Let's go and check out the next area."

Lin Manman smiled slightly, "It's alright. I think this spirit beast is perfect as a hunting target for my spirit pet. Name your price."

The man paused for a moment, then broke into a broad smile. "We bought this spirit beast for 400,000 Chinese yuan. Adding the round-trip transportation and labor costs, how about 550,000? We have to make a profit..."

Lin Manman raised an eyebrow. Normally, a bronze-level spirit beast would cost around 500,000.

However, to avoid any unforeseen complications, she readily agreed.

Now, whether it's 500,000 or 550,000, the difference isn't that big in her eyes; they're just a tiny amount of money, so there's no need to waste time haggling.

The man happily took out a form and started filling it out. Although the amount was small, he had specifically asked for a higher price, and he didn't expect the other party to agree so readily.

By this calculation, he can earn a little more from the price difference.

Wu Jingyu wasn't very optimistic about this giant capybara, but she trusted Lin Manman's judgment, so she thought there must be something special about this big rat.

However, the salesperson was still there, so she couldn't ask him directly.

Lin Manman swiped her card and paid the bill quickly. Her spatial bracelet couldn't store living creatures, and in order not to attract attention, she didn't sign a contract on the spot. She could only ask the male warriors accompanying her to help carry it.

After successfully signing the deal, the man became even more attentive, leading the four of them to the last area.

Just as the man said, these spirit beasts captured from the secret realm were much larger in size, and their appearance alone exuded a fierce aura.

Lin Manman was carefully scanning these spirit beasts, trying to find one that was suitable for her to form a contract with.

Suddenly, another salesperson came over and hurriedly said to the salesperson who had been following them, "Brother Yao, you'd better go and see! The two-winged saber-toothed tiger you sold to that young master of the Wang family's collateral branch a couple of days ago has been returned."

"Not only that, they also claimed that because the spirit beast we sold was not legitimate, their young master was injured during the contract process and is now causing trouble at the door."

The man surnamed Yao, who had been following Lin Manman, immediately became anxious. "I told them when I sold it that if your strength is not higher than the spirit beast captured from the secret realm, it is not recommended to form a contract with it."

"Besides, they signed a risk disclosure form at the time, so why are they contacting us now?"

"We've already argued with them, but they're being unreasonable and insist that you go out and give them an explanation. The manager is still dealing with them. You should go and take a look."

The man surnamed Yao knew he might be in trouble now. He looked at Lin Manman, feeling both fear and resentment.

After hearing that there were risks involved in contracting spirit beasts captured in the secret realm, Lin Manman gave up her plan to buy spirit beasts from this area. After all, she had just looked around and found that most of the spirit beasts in this area were level three or above.

Her main purpose was to buy the contract, not to actually buy the beast for fighting.

So she said to the man surnamed Yao, "You go and handle it. We've been shopping for quite a while, it's time to go back."
