Chapter 472 - New Regulation (1/2)

Chapter 472 New Regulation

Su Ping read the introduction.

Slave Contract (Low grade):

Sign a contract that gives you absolute control and you will be the sole master. The contracted party is unable to hurt the master, nor to maintain an emotional bond with the master, or to enter the master’s contract s.p.a.ce.

Duration: one month

Scope of application: Anything below the Star Rank

Price: Ten thousand energy points

“I have never heard about anything like this.” Su Ping was surprised. The slave contract was better than the astral pet contract of the general kind. It was usual for battle pet warriors to worry about their pets hurting them when they were injured. There shall be no such concerns with the slave contract.

As for being unable to improve emotional bonds…

Generally speaking, no battle pet warrior would care about that. The battle pets were just to help the battle pet warriors fight. Who would care about emotional bonds?

One thing which is inconvenient about the slave contract was that the pet could not be put away in the contract s.p.a.ce. That was to say, the enslaved pet would have to stay with the battle pet warrior outside at all times.

That would make it difficult for the battle pet warriors, to access certain locations in the base city. Also, it could alert enemies when battle pet warriors were out in the wild, hunting.

“What a timely help!”

Su Ping raised his eyebrows. He was just thinking that the Swamp War Crocodile was a useless burden, and then he got that Slave Contract. It couldn’t have come at a better time.

Ten thousand energy points for one month’s use of a beast king.

That was a good deal. That was a beast king, one at the latter stage of the Ocean State, getting closer to the Void State. Not even a legendary battle pet warrior at the Ocean State could have defeated such a beast king!

Buy it!

Su Ping put down the order directly.

But he didn’t rush into using the Slave Contract which would only be effective for one month. Anyway, he didn’t need it for the time being when he stayed inside the store.

Besides, there was a chance that he could get better beast kings. An idea popped into his mind that excited him.

With Joanna as the inside man in the DemiG.o.d Burial, Su Ping could ask her to get a beast king at the peak of its state. In that way, he would have no more enemies below the Star Rank!

“Alert. The host cannot use the Slave Contract on beasts found in the cultivation sites,” the system jumped in. Clearly, the peeping system had once again probed into his mind.

“Why the h.e.l.l not!” Su Ping could not help but bellow since his dream had been crushed.

The system’s voice was flat as it explained, “The Slave Contract is an article in the present, the actual world. The beasts from the cultivation sites are marked with the laws of the cultivation sites. This kind of poor quality Slave Contract cannot erase that kind of law. Only the Antiquity Pet Contract that the host uses can erase those laws.”

Su Ping was speechless. Previously, when he wanted to ask Joanna to catch a bunch of beasts from the DemiG.o.d Burial and sell them at the store, the system refused him and quoted the world laws. What the heck were the laws?

“Also, even if the host can use the Slave Contract in the cultivation sites, the host will not be able to bring the contacted pet back to the store.” The system went on. “The pets under the Slave Contract cannot be put away into the contract s.p.a.ce. But I shall only be responsible for taking the host to and back from the cultivation sites. The system is not responsible for any other creatures that don’t feel as part of the store.”

Su Ping curled his lips.

Why did the system sound so proud?

Su Ping heaved a sigh and put away the Slave Contract. Anyway, the Slave Contract merely cost him ten thousand energy points. He wasn’t losing any money in that deal.

Su Ping went back to the storefront and allowed the system to estimate the price of the material he had just bought. The selling price was the same as the buying price. True… He wasn’t able to make advantage of the price differences that any middleman would use. Or, to be exact, he had never been a middleman.

What a…

“First warning!”

“What an amazing system…”

Su Ping decided not to challenge a system that couldn’t take a joke (insult.) He wasn’t interested in selling the material. After all, he couldn’t make any money from it. Why would he put himself through more trouble?

He had a pet of his own that was able to use fire skills himself.

The Inferno Dragon was both a dragon and also a member of the fire family.

Besides, since the system had denied him of all chances to make any money from that material, say he had no Inferno Dragon, he would be more than happy to feed the material to the dog!

“Come one out, fire-breathing dragon… no, Inferno Dragon.”

Su Ping said in his mind. A dark and deep swirl appeared behind him. Bathed in fire, the Inferno Dragon stepped out from the swirl.

The Inferno Dragon was so tall that it was going to hit the ceiling.

The familiar scene of the store jumped into its eyes. The Inferno Dragon put away its ferocious aura, knowing that Su Ping had not summoned it for a battle.

“Here you are.”

Su Ping threw the blood-red gra.s.s blade that he spent one hundred and twenty thousand energy points on to the Inferno Dragon.

The Inferno Dragon swallowed the gra.s.s blade whole while blinking in confusion. Was this dinner? Why so little?

Nothing seemed different from the Inferno Dragon, as if it had just eaten air. Su Ping wondered if it was because the material needed would take some time to take effect. Letting the huge Inferno Dragon stand next to the store was troublesome. Su Ping told the Inferno Dragon to go to the nursing pen and digest the material.

It would be up to fate to see to what extent the Inferno Dragon’s understanding could be improved.

At the same time, Zhong Lingtong, who had been chatting with Tang Ruyan on the couch, was in a daze.

What did she just see?

Inferno Dragon?!

One of the three rarest dragons?

It took Zhong Lingtong a long while to come back to her senses. She darted an inquiring look at Su Ping.

Even if she was born in the Holy Light Base City where many rare and famous pets lived, Zhong Lingtong only had a few chances to see such a rare dragon. That was not the first time she had ever met an Inferno Dragon, but this was the first time she was that close to one!

Also, the master of the Inferno Dragon was her teacher!

An a.n.a.logy would be that you had seen other people’s kids getting straight As and it could never surprise you. But when it was your kid who suddenly began to get straight As… well, well, you would be over the moon!
