The buff is permanent, and you start the game with a fountain of water.

"biu-biu~biu~"

Inside Hidden Dragon Valley, the little fox sat on Huan Cheng's shoulder, its front paws gripping his collar tightly, its tail swaying gently as a series of ice spikes shot towards the demonized blood lion in front of it.

-12, -21, -22, -18, -19...

A dense array of damage numbers floated over the Blood Lion's head.

Huan Cheng glanced at the excited little fox, a look of surprise in his eyes.

The blood lion was a level 32 mutated monster, while the little fox was only level 1. The fact that the ice spikes could break through its defenses was unbelievable to Huan Cheng.

Ice Spike is a basic ice spell with low mana cost and zero cooldown, equivalent to a warrior's basic attack.

Although there is no cooldown, Ice Spike has a casting time. Players who can cast one Ice Spike per second on average can proudly claim to be elite mages. It's unthinkable for someone like Little Fox to use Ice Spike like a machine gun.

The little fox was shooting with great enthusiasm, but the Blood Lion, being an elite monster of level 30 or so, had a lot of health and didn't care about these tickling attacks at all.

Hoping the little guy can kill the Blood Lion is a pipe dream; who knows when that will happen.

Huan Cheng gestured for the little guy to sit still, then leaped up and launched the Wind-Riding Slash.

After a series of skills were used to send the Blood Lion away, a system notification immediately sounded.

"Ding! You have defeated a level 32 one-star elite [Demonized Blood Lion], gaining 12000 experience points."

"Ding! Your pet [Ali] has leveled up to level 2, with HP +300, MP +260, spell power +40, defense +10, and has learned the skill [Ice Spear Forest]."

"That's it?"

After waiting a few seconds and seeing that the system did not respond, Huan Cheng opened the system panel in surprise.

Previously, through a soul contract, the experience distribution method was adjusted to 100% for the pet, meaning that the little fox consumed all the experience from the demonized blood lion.

As a result, after spending 12,000 experience points, the little fox only leveled up from level 1 to level 2?

What kind of incredible experience does that require?!

With extremely mixed feelings, Huan Cheng turned his gaze to the demonized monster.

With a soft shout, he charged forward with the little fox.

"biu—"

The little fox was quite excited, grabbing Huan Cheng's collar tightly and firing wildly all the way, occasionally throwing out a newly learned ice spear technique.

They remained silent the entire way, the two perpetual motion machines engaged in a frenzied slaughter, half a day later.

"Ding! Your pet [Ali] has reached level 15, with HP +800, MP +500, Spell Power +200, and Defense +40. It has learned the skill Frost Armor."

Open the pet interface.

【Frost Fox (Ahri)】: Level 15, Grade: Sunfire, Health: 12500, Mana: 6600, Spell Power: 1660, Defense: 620, Talents: Mana Fountain, Heart of Extreme Cold. Skills: Ice Spike, Ice Spear Forest, Frost Armor, Frost Breath, Frost Rain...; Loyalty: Unwavering.

Looking at the little guy's attributes, Huan Cheng's expression was complicated.

This is only level 15, and it's a magic-based creature, yet its health points already exceed those of most warrior players.

What Huan Cheng envied even more was that in just half a day, this little guy had mastered more than a dozen skills, big and small.

It not only learns skills when it levels up, but also celebrates by learning a new skill when it's happy.

If you're not playing well, learn a new skill and try a different approach.

If you win, reward yourself by learning a new skill.

When I get tired of fighting, I snuggle up on my older brother's shoulder and take a nap, dreaming of learning a new skill to play with...

In short, this little guy can learn ice-type skills anytime, anywhere, and his skill bar is already overflowing...

This made Huan Cheng, a poor man with limited skills, grit his teeth in disbelief.

According to the description of the Soul Contract, Huan Cheng can copy a pet skill through the contract.

At first, Huan Cheng was quite hopeful, hoping to make up for his lack of skills in this way.

But when he opened the skill list and compared them one by one, he found that things were far from as wonderful as he had imagined.

The little fox's skills are all magic-based.

He can indeed copy and use it, but once copied, the spell's power and spell strength are directly linked.

His spell power is currently 655, which is not bad among magic-based players; he can even cosplay as a mage player.

However, compared to nearly five thousand physical attacks, this amount of magical power is insignificant.

Using ice magic to farm monsters is a complete waste of time, as the damage is less than that of a normal attack.

Click on the Frost Crystal Armor to see what new skills the little guy has learned.

【Frost Armor】: A B-rank skill that consumes mana to summon ice elemental power, forming a shield of solid ice in front of the user to protect against damage. The shield lasts for 5 seconds. Skill cooldown: 60 seconds.

Damage resistance = Skill input mana * 5. If the shield is broken by the enemy, it will cause freezing damage to targets within three meters and slow down their movement speed and attack speed.

Huan Cheng's face lit up with joy after reviewing the attributes of the Frost Crystal Armor.

This skill seems usable!

He currently has 2250 mana. If he were to channel all of his mana into it at once, it would form a shield that could withstand 11,000 damage.

This number is already quite impressive, much higher than the Qingyang Protection that comes with the Qingyang Armor.

More importantly, this skill has a cooldown of only sixty seconds.

With the help of Endless Regeneration, his mana was fully restored by the end of the sixty-second cooldown, and he could unleash another attack.

Without further hesitation, Huan Cheng chose to copy.

While it's called copying, a more accurate term would be sharing.

Not only will it not affect the little fox's use, but if it learns any advanced skills in the future, Huan Cheng can also change it at any time.

As its level increased, the little fox grew from one foot to one and a half feet in size, and when it lay on Huan Cheng's shoulder, it looked just like a fox fur scarf.

Huan Cheng patted Ali's little head and laughed, "Let's go, we should move over a bit!"

In order to upgrade Ahri, Huan Cheng hasn't gone in much lately.

Ahri is now level 15, and leveling up is even more difficult. There's no point in staying here any longer; she can move on to explore.

"Move! Move!"

The excited roar of the little fox echoed in my mind.

"Hahaha, let's go!"

Huan Cheng gave a soft shout, summoned the Fire Cloud Steed, and galloped wildly into the depths of Hidden Dragon Valley.

Today, Huan Cheng finally understands why the legal system is respectfully called "Master Law".

Huan Cheng is not a knight-type class and cannot use attack skills while mounted.

Whether it was a bug or not, Huan Cheng, riding the Fire Cloud Steed, and the little fox, riding Huan Cheng, were no longer restricted from using attack skills.

Ice Spear Forest, Snowstorm, Frost Piercing, Chain Ice Blades...

The little fox unleashed a barrage of skills as if they were free, most of which were area-of-effect attacks, making Huan Cheng drool.

The little fox isn't high-level, but its stats are strong; it can easily deal one or two thousand damage with a single spell.

While its single-target attack is inferior to Huan Cheng's, its total output is quite considerable.

Huan Cheng didn't even need to lift a finger; the excited little guy took care of the ordinary monsters on the road himself.

The little fox was very enthusiastic, almost creating sparks with its magic. Huan Cheng was happy to have some free time, leisurely riding his Fiery Cloud Steed along the way.

Only when he occasionally encounters a high-level BOSS that the little fox finds difficult to deal with will he draw his Bloodthirsty Demon Dragon Sword and take action himself.

Huan Cheng engaged in close combat with his sword, while the little fox provided magical support, making them more than twice as efficient as before.
