Pet Simulator

Chapter 18: You Can Scold Me, But I Won’t Hold Back if You Scold My Pet!

Looking at the information of the reality simulation, Wang Ye took in a breath of cold air.

The reality simulation this time was different from the previous three times!

The biggest difference was that the rewards had changed!

“After the pet levels up, the rewards will change? These rewards seem to be helpful to me… So the script simulation can make the pet stronger, and the reality simulation can make me stronger? Is it because I’m also in the reality simulation?” Wang Ye pondered for a while, “It says temporarily obtain, but can’t it be permanent?”

If he could permanently obtain Xiao Jiu’s skills, six dimensions, and characteristics, then wouldn’t he be able to “take off”?

It wouldn’t be good if he, as the owner, was just trash if his pet was too strong.

His two talents themselves couldn’t make him stronger.

“It should be because the green sparrow’s survival time had been too short, or it’s too weak, that I can’t obtain these rewards permanently yet…” Wang Ye thought for a moment and chose to temporarily obtain the skill, Sky-dance.

This skill could increase one’s cultivation speed.

His talent, Deep Memory, didn’t bestow him the ability to cultivate, so he was very weak.

His talent was not bad in itself. It was still quite useful, but it was very difficult for him to cultivate.

Humans themselves were very weak. They were far from being comparable to the pets.

However, they could rely on different talents to cultivate their spiritual energy and improve themselves.

For this whole month, Wang Ye did not cultivate his talent because he simply couldn’t.

With the Sky-dance skill, he could then temporarily cultivate. Otherwise, it would be bad if he was too weak.

After temporarily acquiring the skill, a piece of information suddenly appeared in his mind in the form of memory. It was as if he had turned into a little bird and started dancing!

“Chirp chirp!” Xiao Jiu immediately cried out in excitement, as if it was seeing its own kind!

To think its beastmaster was actually its own kind!

That’s great!

Wang Ye was speechless.

No matter what the silly bird, Xiao Jiu, thought, Wang Ye indeed felt as if his entire body was opening up. The spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth began to pour into his body, turning into waves of spiritual energy that surged into his mind, his limbs, and bones.

The cool feeling made him feel quite comfortable.

It was not until three hours had passed that this feeling slowly decreased.

Wang Ye felt that his entire body was full of strength. His physical strength had gradually recovered, but not his spiritual power.

However, judging from his entire appearance, he no longer looked as weak as before.

“Damn, the pets’ skills are damn useful! I heard that after one cultivates one’s talent to a certain extent, one can also awaken certain innate skills… But with my talent, there’s probably no need to think about all this though,” Wang Ye took a deep breath.

Reality simulations were more useful than he had imagined.

“Next up is this mission. From the looks of it, this isn’t an ordinary accident. Those pets that disguised themselves as fierce beasts in the Fenglin Secret Realm must have been ordered by their beastmasters to attack me. I’m a member of the Investigation Corps, so why? Our objective of the mission is to find Ming Kai and Ming Zhu. So in other words, the mysterious beastmasters in the dark don’t want us to find these two? Are they enemies? Other than that, being killed by a mysterious and powerful fierce beast in the Sealed Demon Sword Tomb trial after that is just strange. There shouldn’t have been any casualties in that kind of trial, so there’s a high probability that someone did something behind the scenes!”

At this moment, Wang Ye, who had cultivated for a while, felt that his mind was extremely clear.

“The logic behind this is that after I killed those pets in the Fenglin Secret Realm, I have invoked the wariness of the beastmasters in the dark. After I returned to Anping County, I was temporarily safe, but my identity must have been discovered by the other party. So, they set me up in the Sealed Demon Sword Tomb to kill me in a reasonable manner. Then, who is the mastermind behind all this?”

Wang Ye was troubled.

There were probably some complicated conflicts of interest involved in the mission, and they must be related to the Mingguang Enterprise.

“Should I get involved in this mess?”

In such an era, especially in the special environment of Dongli Country and the Investigation Corps, the danger was always present.

“I haven’t solved the problem of the dark fog outbreak yet. I didn’t expect to meet with a new trouble,” Wang Ye sighed.

If he wanted to avoid it, he simply needed to reject it directly.

However, if he did so, the only way for him to earn more money in the next two months was to enter the secret realms.

With the authority of a mere trainee investigator that would allow him to freely enter miniature secret realms, unless it was a new secret realm, he might not be able to find anything good even if he had the Simulator.

The probability was very low.

“Looking at it from another perspective, if the problem is in the Fenglin Secret Realm, it probably means that Ming Kai and Ming Zhu are there. If I can find them and bring them out safely, the reward will be at least a million, or even more! Trouble also means a huge gain. But the premise is, how do I avoid being investigated by their enemies and getting into trouble? Unless I hide my identity…”

Wang Ye gradually had a plan in mind.

First, he bought a simple set of clothes and a mask in the county, which he also prepared for Xiao Jiu.

Following this, Wang Ye went straight to the Fenglin Secret Realm after leaving the city.

After finding a deserted place, he changed out of the investigators’ official uniform of the Investigation Corps, then put on a white set of clothes and a bird mask, that made him look like he was cosplaying.

There was just one word to describe him, handsome.

As for Xiao Jiu, Wang Ye hung a lot of decorations on its wings and put a grass hoop he weaved on its head, as well as painted its feathers with all kinds of strange patterns.

It now looked like a bird from the past.

The green sparrow, ancient limited edition.

From its appearance, one couldn’t even tell that it was a green sparrow.

The Fenglin Secret Realm was a dead forest located a hundred miles east of Anping County. There were often strong winds and tornadoes there, and it had been developed for more than ten years.

It was one of the training secret realms for many new beastmasters.

There were many level-one fierce beasts and some rare resources inside.

By the time they arrived at the Fenglin Secret Realm, it was already evening.

“The siblings should be inside…” Wang Ye calmed himself down and began to stroll around unhurriedly.

A moment later, Xiao Jiu that had been flying in midair seemed to have noticed something and immediately flew down while chirping.

“You saw it?”

Xiao Jiu nodded.

With a thought, Wang Ye followed the path as indicated by Xiao Jiu and walked over.

On the way, he saw two beastmasters who were on their last breaths, and their pets who were lying by their sides.

Judging from their clothes, they were probably beastmasters from Mingguang Enterprise.

Not long after, Wang Ye saw the scene of a battle.

In the withered forest, two parties were fighting.

Two scarred pets were guarding a man and a woman, who were both exhausted and had faces that were covered in dust.

Those two people were Ming Kai and Ming Zhu.

Wang Ye could confirm it with a glance.

On the other side, there were four pets and their beastmasters who were besieging the two.

Three sets were at level two, and one was at level three.

The situation was extremely dangerous.

“The situation is so dangerous. No wonder those two died here. The mission started today, so no matter how many investigators the Investigation Corps sent out, it wouldn’t have been easy for them to find the Fenglin Secret Realm. Even if they did, it would be too late. The evidence would be easy to get rid of.”

Wang Ye looked on, and the battle was already coming to an end.

In the distance, the beastmaster in the lead said in a hoarse voice, “You’re really tenacious. Young Master Ming, I’ll give you two choices. One, to be torn apart by us. By then, the information you have hidden on you will still fall into our hands. The second option, we’ll give you and your sister a quick death if you be aware of your situation and hand it over. Otherwise, you’ll suffer humiliation. We don’t have much patience. Oh right, don’t even hope that this little Anping County will have an investigator come to save you. If one comes, we’ll kill one. If two come, we’ll kill a pair. Without the dark fog’s attack, it’s even more impossible for the city defense army to move out of the city for you. Look at your beautiful sister. She’s the goddess of Yaoguang City and the high flower in the mountains. You probably can’t bear to see her die a painful death, right? My patience is limited. Your two pets can only last five minutes at most.”

After saying that, the air fell silent.

“Brother, let’s destroy the information and then commit suicide,” On the other side, a clear voice sounded softly.

“No, suicide is fine, but the information can’t be destroyed,” Ming Kai said lightly.

“… We’re already in such a situation, brother, what exactly is the information…” Ming Zhu was stunned, “Would it be better if it fell into the hands of these people?”

“No, but if it was destroyed, there would definitely be a great disaster in store for Xinghai Province in the future,” Ming Kai shook his head.

“But if it fell into the hands of these people…” Ming Kai sighed, and stopped saying anything.

Hearing this, Ming Zhu was silent for a moment, then said to the pet in front of her, “Xiao Bai, come back. I know what to do.”

“Have you made your decision?” The beastmaster in the lead asked with a smile.

Ming Kai nodded slightly and was about to speak when a series of footsteps suddenly sounded.

In such a quiet environment, the sound of footsteps was somewhat abrupt.

Several pairs of eyes instantly looked over only to see a mysterious person wearing a white robe and a bird mask standing in the distance.

A bird-type pet beast was standing on his shoulder, looking left and right.

“Sorry to disturb you. Please continue,” Wang Ye’s expression did not change. He only said indifferently and was about to leave after saying that.

At this time, he could not show that he was here to save those two as it would make himself too obvious.

Everyone was speechless.

“Excuse me! Please wait!” At this moment, Ming Zhddenly shouted, “Can you do us both a favor?”

“I’m not interested,” Wang Ye turned around and left.

“We are willing to give a reward!”

“I’m not interested either.”

“…” Both Ming Kai and Ming Zhu were stunned.

“My silly sister, the Fenglin Secret Realm is only a small secret realm in Anping County,” Ming Kai said helplessly, “The beastmasters who come here are usually newbies. What can he do? He can’t wait to leave this place as soon as possible…”

“But I feel that he seems somewhat special…” said Ming Zhu.

“What’s so special about him? Have you been reading too many novels and your head is full of those silly hero stories?”

“…”

Just then, one of the beastmasters in black suddenly said, “Boss, look at that pet bird. It’s so silly. That guy is obviously a newbie beastmaster. I’ll go kill him.”

“Go on, hurry up.”

As soon as the boss finished speaking, the black-clothed beastmaster hadn’t even made a move yet when Wang Ye suddenly turned around and said slowly, “You can scold me, but I won’t hold back if you scold my pet.”

“Chirp!” Xiao Jiu chirped loudly.

That’s right! It wasn’t stupid!

“Kid, who are you?” The black-clothed beastmaster sneered.

“A person who’s about to die doesn’t have the right to know my name,” As soon as he finished saying this, Wang Ye patted Xiao Jiu.

Xiao Jiu let out a cry and abruptly rose into the air, streaking across the sky in a dazzling arc of light. Immediately after, its wings emitted an intense azure divine light, as brilliant as the stars.

In the next instant, the skill Skyful of Feathers that was close to the great success realm was cast, and under the boost of the Hurricane God Wings, became countless soundless light blades!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

In an instant, dozens of feathered blades slashed down. In the blink of an eye, before the black-clothed beastmasters even had time to react, their throats were instantly slit and they were dead.

Countless wounds also appeared instantly on the four pets. Only the level three pet was still breathing, while the others were on the verge of death.

Seeing this scene, the two people in the distance were dumbfounded…
