Pet Simulator

Chapter 6: Being Brave in the Reality Simulation!

Two days had passed by in a flash.

On the day Wang Ye woke up from his coma, he took dozens of mind-clearing pills. It took him an entire day to recover his spiritual state.

Moreover, what troubled Wang Ye was that the effect of the mind-clearing pills was decreasing.

No, to be more precise, Wang Ye’s spiritual power had increased.

Therefore, the effect of the mind-clearing pills had decreased.

Only one-fifth of the one hundred mind-clearing pills were left.

For the next two days, Wang Ye continued to run the simulation once a day, using up all of the mind-clearing pills.

“Ten thousand dollars, gone just like that,” The night before they set off, Wang Ye looked at the dark clouds outside and sighed, “That being said, the simulations these two days are still quite useful.”

The lengths of these two simulations were far inferior to the previous one.

The first time, the green sparrow lived to the age of 15 and was swallowed by a 100-meters-long snake on the cliff.

Fortunately, during that simulation, the green sparrow’s mastery of Sky-dance finally reached the proficient realm.

For the second simulation, the green sparrow lived to the age of 20 and mainly trained the skill Feather Coat to improve its defense. When it reached the age of 20, it had an epiphany and was only one step away from the proficient realm. However, it was a pity that the stupid bird met the little insect again and thought that it could do it this time. In the end, it was smashed into a meat patty by the little insect’s three consecutive tail attacks.

The green sparrow did not live for long in these two simulations.

However, the realm of its skills had been broken through repeatedly, and its skill effects had been greatly improved.

After consuming dozens of spiritual energy stones in two days, the green sparrow’s spiritual energy had reached 320 points, breaking through to become a three-star level-one pet.

Its strength had greatly increased!

“With your strength, you’re just nothing in the scripted world. Don’t be reckless even if you have been training for decades!” Wang Ye stroked the green sparrow’s increasingly smooth feathers and tried to instill the principle of ‘don’t be reckless’ into it every day.

Fortunately, the two simulations did not last long, so Wang Ye did not faint from being exhausted. The consumption of his spiritual power was within control.

However, Wang Ye concluded the patterns. Running one simulation a day was more or less enough. If he ran too many simulations, he would easily overload himself, which he would not be able to bear.

If he were to die, it was a great loss.

“Right, should I give you a name?” Wang Ye pondered.

“Chirp chirp!” The green sparrow flapped its wings and cried excitedly.

“Xiao Que’er?” The green sparrow tilted its head and looked at Wang Ye, as if asking, “Is this even appropriate?”

“Cough cough… Let’s use another one. In this world, there are nine levels of combat power, nine grades, as well as nine grades of growth… So let’s call you Xiao Jiu,” Thinking about it, Wang Ye said, “This means that one day, you will be able to become a level 9 supreme pet with 6X growth.”

The green sparrow’s eyes lit up and it immediately chirped happily as if it was quite pleased with this naming and reason.

There seemed to be light in its eyes as they dazzled like stars.

“Alright, for the investigation of the secret realm tomorrow, let’s play the game again tonight!” Wang Ye said thoughtfully, “You must be careful. In addition, I might also appear in the game this time. You must pay attention to the movements of me and my companions. When you enter the secret realm, don’t be afraid of death. This time, you can be brave and wander around!”

In the Pet Simulator, Xiao Jiu was the main character, and the angle of view was also from its perspective.

He would not appear in the simulation of the scripted world, but there was a 99% chance that he would appear together with Xiao Jiu in the reality simulation.

Xiao Jiu nodded, feeling that it was finally its turn to perform!

Finally, there was no need to be a coward!

The light screen appeared. This time, there was an additional bracket for the reality simulation that was filled with a number ‘3’.

This meant that there were three chances for him to run the reality simulation.

[Simulation begins. Information loading…]

[At night, you look up at the starry sky, looking forward to tomorrow’s adventure with your beastmaster.]

[The next day, your beastmaster brought you out of the city and set off to the Baisen Secret Realm with two companions. On the road, you had been sent to scout, so you flew around in all directions. Before you reached the secret realm, you discovered a group of fierce beasts. Three fierce beasts were surrounding a red spirit herb that was about to mature. You smelled the fragrance of the herb, and being brave, you wanted to kill them and get the spirit herb to claim credit for it!]

[With your outstanding strength, you managed to escape from the fierce beasts and cry in your beastmaster’s arms.]

Wang Ye was speechless.

[At noon, just as the lot of you reached the entrance of the secret realm, the two companions suddenly attacked and killed your beastmaster. You lost your rationality and attacked them like crazy, then buried your beastmaster. You, who were on the verge of death, felt that life was meaningless and committed suicide. You died.]

[Your survival time is too short. There are no rewards.]

Wang Ye was stunned, and he took a deep breath.

He was dead just like that?

“My companions suddenly attacked me? Why? Why did they kill me?” Wang Ye was confused.

Did he have enemies?

Wang Ye flipped through the memories about the life of the original owner of the body. It was very ordinary.

He didn’t have any enemies back when he was a student!

It was impossible for him to have enemies in the Investigation Corps too, right?

“Enemies of my parents? That’s impossible. I remember that the parents of the original owner of the body were soldiers. How could they have enemies?” Wang Ye frowned.

He didn’t expect the investigation of the secret realm to be so dangerous.

He had just arrived at the secret realm and hadn’t even started to investigate it yet. He hadn’t lost his life to fierce beasts, nor had he encountered any strangeness, yet to think he had died under the hands of his companions?

“The original owner’s talent is Deep Memory. There won’t be any mistakes or omissions in his memory regarding the things that happened when he was young. So why? What should I do now? Report it to Tang Xiong? It’s useless. No one will believe the authenticity of the simulation. Refuse to go and investigate the secret realm? That’s impossible. I can’t just expect the money to be easy to earn. Could it be Tang Xiong?”

Thinking of this, Wang Ye was stunned. But on second thought, he felt that it wasn’t right. Tang Xiong didn’t need to go to such lengths to kill him at all.

In his previous life, he was just an ordinary neet. Encountering such a situation now, Wang Ye was at a loss too.

“Forget it, I’ll see those two companions tomorrow. If things are bad, I’ll just make an early move… Besides, I have two more chances at the reality simulation.”

Wang Ye didn’t think too much about it.

The main information of this simulation should be the red spirit herb.

It should be a treasure which he must get tomorrow when he had the chance.

The reason why he let Xiao Jiu be a little more reckless in the reality simulation was to obtain more information.

They could be cowardly in the script simulation, and brave in the reality simulation!

“I have to let Xiao Jiu learn an offensive skill. The proficient realm Sky-dance can be used in battle. Not only can it increase Xiao JIu’s agility, but also greatly increase its spiritual energy. If I can make it learn an attributed skill, it will greatly increase Xiao Jiu’s offensive power! Those three fierce beasts might not be necessarily undefeatable.”

Among the six-dimensional growth, Strength represented the strength of physical attacks, while Spiritual Energy represented the strength of attributed attacks.

The higher the energy value, the stronger the attributed skills would be when used.

“I have to find the time to run another simulation tomorrow.”

After thinking about the countermeasures, Wang Ye and Xiao Jiu rested for the night.

The next day, Wang Ye carried his backpack and put Xiao Jiu in it, which poked its head out of the bag.

Inside the backpack were the tools for survival in the wild, like tents, sleeping bags, food, medicine, and so on.

After using up the mind-clearing pills, Wang Ye spent another tens of thousands of yuan to buy a hundred of the more expensive and more effective mind-waking pills, for backup on the way.

Five hundred thousand yuan didn’t seem to be enough.

At eight o’clock sharp, Wang Ye arrived at the city gate of Anping County, meeting up with Tang Xiong and his companions.

The other two were an official investigator and a reserve investigator like himself.
