Chapter 21 (2/2)

…

…

Hearing the car rus.h.i.+ng away, Su Ping knew that the siblings were finally gone. He thought they had to be in a rush considering how fierce the exhaust sounded.

“Are they rus.h.i.+ng to the hospital?” Su Ping raised his eyebrows. He didn’t think about it too much; soon after, he s.h.i.+fted his focus on his account.

He did the calculation. His eyes were filled with pa.s.sionate feelings.

8700+20000+2860=31560 coins.

Altogether, that was over 30,000 coins!

That would be 315.6 energy points when converted!

“Finally, I’m out of poverty…” Su Ping teared up. He pulled up the system’s shop and bought that “Awakening Potion” worth a hundred energy points without further ado.

-100.

When the points of energy were deducted, Su Ping felt his pocket suddenly become heavy with an extra item added.

He took it out. It was that bottle of Awakening Potion sold in the shop.

Su Ping’s eyes glowed. He asked at once, “System, how do I take this?”

“The Awakening Potion is made from an ancient underground spring. Take it orally,” the system gave a simple reply.

Su Ping was about to drink it at once when he suddenly remembered something. He left the counter, turned around, and closed the door. Then, he stepped into the back room. He opened the lid and poured the Awakening Potion into his mouth.

It didn’t feel like a flow of liquid; it was more like a mist.

“So warm…”

As soon as he took it, Su Ping felt this warm mist spreading across his body through his veins. His arms, legs, and back turned warmer at once.

At the same time, his body seemed to be lighter until he felt he weighed nothing, as if he could just float when he stood on his tiptoes.

Feeling this warmth, Su Ping could faintly hear some cracking sounds all over his body. That was a special sound that brought a marvelous feeling. It was as if every cell in him was sprouting and cracking, with new things bursting forth.

This kind of disputing and revitalizing feeling was not exclusive to his physical body. He felt his brain was going through the same thing. He could hear a constant subtle cracking sound until it completely occupied his mind.

After a long, long time.

When everything quieted down, Su Ping opened his eyes again.

A world that was distinct and in focus was revealed in front of his eyes.

To his surprise, Su Ping realized that the darkroom and everything around could be seen vividly, including the protruding particles painted on the white walls.

He heard the system’s even tone, “Congratulations to the host on becoming a battle pet warrior. The main quest is initiated.

“Main quest: the host is to breed a pet of his own within one week. The apt.i.tude of the pet shall not be lower than upper-middle.”

Su Ping was astounded.

The main quest?

But there were strings attached.

He had to have a pet with an upper-middle level in apt.i.tude.

When he was training the Lightning Rat, Su Ping already had an idea about how strict the system was. A Lightning Rat that could be regarded as the best was only rated as “below average” by the system.

He could hardly imagine how outstanding a pet that was rated at the upper-middle level would be!
