Chapter 12: The First Mission After Three Weeks

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The moon dew cream was milky white and sticky. It had to be applied evenly on every inch of the familiar’s fur and skin that came into contact with the air, and the timing couldn’t be off. Otherwise, the effects of the cream would be lost to a certain extent, so it would be best if he could complete a full-body spa within three minutes.

Even if some familiars had successfully formed a contract with their beastmaster, they would still resist showing their bellies to others. As a result, it would usually take a long time to apply the medicine, causing the medicinal effects to fade.

The more medicine you use, the more resistance you’ll develop. In the end, the effect will become worse and worse, until there’s no effect.

During this process, the more perfectly one absorbed, the faster and higher one’s improvement would be. If an uncooperative familiar could bring out 70% of the medicinal properties, then a fully cooperative familiar could bring out 120% of the medicinal properties. The difference of 50% was undoubtedly huge.

Little Moon was the obedient type. Rather than saying that it was obedient, it was more like it enjoyed Zhang Xuan’s touch. Others couldn’t touch its stomach, but when it came to Zhang Xuan, it was hard to touch its back. Once touched, it would flip over and expose its soft stomach as it looked at Zhang Xuan with a dazed expression.

It made Zhang Xuan think that he was doing something weird. But fortunately, with its cooperation, he finished applying the cream all over its body in less than two minutes.

Zhang Xuan looked at Little Moon, who was lying in front of him with a satisfied expression. She was snoring, and her stomach was moving up and down. He was speechless. This little fellow had actually fallen asleep.

In the next few days, Little Moon got addicted to applying the ointment. This was something Zhang Xuan didn’t expect. At night, she would climb onto the bed, flip over, and use her claws to hook Zhang Xuan. She seemed to imply, “Hurry up. It’s time for my massage.”

“I never thought that I would become a masseuse one day.” Zhang Xuan smiled helplessly. He was actually happy that Little Moon trusted and relied on him.

And just like that, with the double enhancement of Zhang Xuan’s moon dew cream and earth spirit essence, Little Moon’s strength increased day by day. In just three short weeks, she had actually reached bronze level 8.

It was simply out of his expectations. In less than a month, she had completed what others would take three to four months to complete. This had something to do with Little Moon’s high adaptability. In this regard, Little Moon could definitely be considered gifted.

As for saying that it was because of in-game purchases? Please, spending money is also a part of strength. If you can use money, why do you have to ask for trouble?

The rich relied on technology, while the poor relied on mutation. Unfortunately, Little Moon has both technology and mutation. What was a two-pronged approach? This was a two-pronged approach.

As if feeling Zhang Xuan’s joy and shock, Little Moon was also extremely proud. She walked with her head held high and even knocked into the glass door of the store.

At the same time, Zhang Xuan’s trainee beastmaster certificate was also handed out.

If one’s strength increased quickly, then one’s foundation was bound to be unstable. If one wanted to solidify the foundation, then one had to experience actual combat.

It seemed like it was time to accept some missions.

…

At the Beastmaster Association, Zhang Xuan looked at the mission board and frowned. “Tsk. Why are there so many random missions?”

He had no idea what was going on, but after searching for almost ten minutes, he couldn’t find a single one that met the requirements for the E-rank mission the Beastmaster Association had released today.

“Steal the underwear of Old Lady Wang, Street 3, Zone C. Reward: 5 points.”

“Bring Old Man Li to the grave outside the city to dance disco. Reward: 5 points.”

“Clean the sewers in Area C. Do not bring any rubbish to the surface. Special requirements: cleaning-type familiar. Reward: 10 points.”

“The girl in Area A can’t find her little bear. Can you help her find it? Public service mission. Reward: 3 points.”

“….”

Looking at these weird missions, Zhang Xuan was numb.

So were Old Lady Wang and Old Man Li really not enemies? If these two missions were placed together, everyone would know that there was a grudge between the two of them. Besides, are you sure you two have taken advantage of each other?

‘Why don’t we take a look at D-rank missions?’ Thinking about this, Zhang Xuan glanced at the D-rank mission board. He had found a suitable mission at first glance.

“Protect Butcher Zhao’s small vegetable garden. Recently, Butcher Zhao has been very vexed because his vegetable garden has often been invaded by some familiar porcupines. The good cabbages have almost all been dug out. Protect the small vegetable garden by driving away the porcupines. Reward: 25 points.”

As expected of a D-rank mission, the reward points had increased by five times. And compared to other D-rank missions that were worth 10 to 15 points, this mission’s reward points were almost double!

As a straight-A student, Zhang Xuan was quite familiar with the study of wild beastmasters. The strength of porcupines was around bronze level 4 to 7, and they all had normal bloodlines.

It was enough to use this mission to train Little Moon. Moreover, the Beastmaster Association would give a 10 to 20% bonus based on the completion rate of the mission.

There were many things that points could be used to exchange for. Among them, there were many rare familiar materials. However, it was difficult to gather the price.

Under the staff’s repeated instructions, Zhang Xuan accepted the mission. It was just that they were being chased away. They could still do probationary work, so it wasn’t too much of a leap. Hence, the staff members didn’t stop them.

After leaving the Beastmaster Association, Zhang Xuan and Little Moon arrived at Butcher Zhao’s vegetable garden not long after.

From the staff’s instructions, he knew that the troublemaker was probably a bronze level 5 porcupine, which was acceptable. Little Moon had never been in real combat before, so she would inevitably suffer unnecessary injuries if she went too high, which would also delay the time.

Therefore, it was undoubtedly a better way to adapt slowly. He had thought that this mission would be completed easily.

In the end, looking at the vast vegetable field, Zhang Xuan fell into deep thought. “You f*cking call this a ‘small vegetable field’?”

It was 25 points. It seemed like there was a reason for it.

However, since he had already accepted the mission, he had to do it even if he didn’t want to. At least, he could get a minimum guarantee with a low completion rate, but if he gave up on the mission, his credibility would decrease. After his credibility decreased, it would be difficult to get high-quality missions. And even if he received some normal missions, his points would decrease according to his credibility.

No one would care why you gave up, because overestimating your own ability was also an action without credibility.

After circling the vegetable garden and getting a rough map, Zhang Xuan made some arrangements before starting to play with Little Moon. While playing, he would do some adaptive training to prepare for battle.

Just like that, the man and the wolf didn’t rest until night fell.

They leaned against each other and enjoyed the night view. The sound of insects was scattered all around, but it was also very quiet and pleasant.

However, not long after, Little Moon’s ears suddenly perked up in alarm. Her azure eyes shone with a cold light under the moonlight as she looked at a bush, a low growl coming from her throat.

Zhang Xuan also sensed Little Moon’s emotions. He followed her gaze and saw a pair of red lights approaching the two of them. Under the red light, one could see a pair of curved fangs that were one meter long.

The familiar porcupine had actually appeared of its own accord!
