Beasttaming: Fallen Angel As The First Contract In Game - Chapter 14

Chapter 14: A Great Harvest

Lin Yu and the others followed the winding path.

The cave was wet and quiet, with only the thudding sounds of their footsteps.

The distance between the stone walls on both sides was very narrow, only allowing two to walk side by side.

“Hahahaha,” Gao Yang suddenly burst out laughing.

“What are you doing?” Lin Yu, who was frightened, took a few steps away from him.

“I suddenly found it funny. If pet beasts appeared here, we wouldn’t be able to exert our combat power in such a narrow area,” Gao Yang explained.

Don’t say anymore… Lin Yu coughed, not wanting him to jinx things further, “I don’t think there are any wild pet beasts in the mountain behind the school, right?”

“That’s right, so you don’t have to worry too much,” Zhang Yuze tried to smooth things over, “It’s a pity that the college entrance examination won’t be so easy. I heard that they’ll put us in a place full of wild pet beasts.”

“How do you know? You even have information on this?” Lin Yu’s eyes lit up. If that were true, then wouldn’t the college entrance examination be his home field?

No matter what wild pet beasts he faced, he could just devour dozens or hundreds of them first, then be invincible once he left the mountain!

He wondered if he would be penalized for doing so though…

“It’s like this every year. Don’t you guys pay attention to the news?” Zhang Yuze asked in surprise.

Lin Yu understood.

He was a transmigrator, so it was understandable that he didn’t know. After all, he couldn’t possibly suddenly think of things his memory did not have.

That shouldn’t be the case for Gao Yang though. Lin Yu looked at Gao Yang with a disappointed expression, causing the latter to feel a little embarrassed.

“There seems to be something up there?” Zhang Yuze’s voice came from the front. Lin Yu and Gao Yang jolted and were ready to fight at any time.

The Little Candle Spirit flew up a little, and the candlelight illuminated the rock wall.

They saw purple leaves that looked like banana leaves growing on the rock wall.

It was their reflections that had frightened Zhang Yuze.

Gao Yang commanded the Fierce Crying Vine to gently get a piece from above. He weighed it in his hand, then handed it to Lin Yu.

Lin Yu gently unfolded the leaf and saw wave-like patterns on it. He squeezed it hard, and some transparent black water seeped out.

Feeling the cold dark energy in his hand, his fatigue seemed to have been relieved a lot, and Lin Yu’s face was full of joy.

“This is a treasure. Gao Yang, get all of them down.”

The Fierce Crying Vine was like a model worker, making countless trips. Finally, the leaves were piled up on the ground.

After they had divided them up, Lin Yu did not choose to devour them for the time being, because there might be even rarer items inside that worked on a first-come, first-served basis.

They put everything into their backpacks and continued to move forward.

After walking for another seven to eight minutes, they picked a type of black grape that was emitting spiritual power. Then, a cave entrance appeared in front, where some light shone through.

They quickened their pace and walked in, and their line of sight instantly brightened.

It was a hall of nearly 100 square meters, and in the middle was a quiet grass field that glowed with crystal light.

As the black grass swayed, it flickered with fluorescent light. It was extremely beautiful, just like the starry sky.

The entire hall was illuminated in a deep blue color.

“Black Soul Grass? So many?” Lin Yu gulped and felt his feet trembling.

The Black Soul Grass was a rare dark attribute resource that could only grow in caves.

The grass emitted a thick dark aura that made the three of them drool.

This was a great harvest!

“Let’s pick them together,” Lin Yu quickly called the other two over. The field of grass was huge, and God knows how long it would take to harvest them.

Zhang Yuze and Gao Yang nodded, called their pets, and bent down to pick the grass with Lin Yu.

“I have a feeling that if you devour these, you will definitely get a new skill,” Lin Yu looked at the fluorescent light on the ground and said to Xiaozi half-jokingly.

He had a feeling that this time, they were going to soar.

Xiaozi’s eyes flickered with a trace of expectation. Getting a new skill meant that their strength could improve again.

“What are you doing, Gao Yang?” Zhang Yuze stopped and looked curiously at Gao Yang who had put a handful of grass in front of the Fierce Crying Vine.

The Fierce Crying Vine curled up its body, and a mouth opened at the top of the vine, swallowing the black soul grass in one gulp.

“It seemed to be interested. I didn’t expect it to really eat the grass though,” Gao Yang had a look of surprise.

This meant that he could instantly utilize this batch of resources more efficiently. Perhaps he could directly increase the strength of the Fierce Crying Vine through this opportunity.

“It’s a pity that my Little Candle Spirit doesn’t seem to be interested in this grass,” Zhang Yuze said rather regretfully. He could only put the grass into his backpack bunch by bunch, planning to sell them for a good price.

Lin Yu, who was listening to the conversation between the two, felt quite amused.

Although this kind of dark attribute resource seemed to be very attractive to the necromancy attribute pet beasts, feeding grass to candles? It was impossible.

Pets were also picky about food resources. They wouldn’t just eat anything.

One had to look at both the pet beast’s attributes and adaptability.

For example, Xiaozi. Oh, right, he had to feed Xiaozi grass later too… Never mind then.

However, this also showed how powerful the devouring talent was. His pet beast was truly not picky about food…

Lin Yu was even considering whether he should devour the grass on the spot. After all, doing so would increase his strength immediately.

Just as this thought emerged, the sound of footsteps could be heard from the entrance of the cave.

Lin Yu’s ears perked, and he made a hand gesture to Zhang Yuze and Gao Yang.

The sound of footsteps grew louder, and five figures walked out of the cave, all of them male. They were accompanied by their pets.

The moment they saw the Black Soul Grass in the hall, their eyes clearly lit up.

“Awen, there seems to be someone here already.”

“We came here first,” Since the other party was already in front of them, Lin Yu and the others no longer concealed themselves and walked straight out.

The five people on the opposite side were of different heights and sizes, but they were obviously classmates.

One of the men who seemed to be the leader said, “I was wondering why there weren’t any resources on the way here. They must have all gone into your pockets.”

Lin Yu didn’t say anything, and Zhang Yuze and Gao Yang also kept silent.

They quietly observed the other party’s troops, thinking about the pros and cons of a battle.

Seeing that they didn’t say anything, a chubby short-tempered man couldn’t help but say, “Hurry up and leave. All the Black Soul Grass here belongs to us. The resources you got along the way can be yours. That would be considered fair.”

“None of your pets are of the dark attribute, right?” Lin Yu suddenly said.

The other party was stunned, and the leader immediately said, “So what? With so much Black Soul Grass, we can just sell it for money, hahaha.”

At this point, his eyes couldn’t help but brighten, and two even walked out from behind him to start picking the grass.

“What I mean is, this is more important to me,” Lin Yu sighed. Xiaozi had quietly come to his side and spread her wings.

A wave of pressure that seemed to have climbed out of the nine nethers swept across the entire area like a storm. The entire hall seemed to have changed colors in an instant, turning a dark purple.

All the black soul grass bowed in an instant as if they were paying their respects.

The five men retreated to the wall. They felt as if their souls were being pressed against the wall by a pair of invisible hands. Their hearts were beating rapidly as if a great horror was about to befall them if the other party didn’t stop.
