Chapter 95: Stolen Pet
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
After reselling the equipment three times, Fang Yuan stopped after collecting enough money to buy the golden ring. It was not because he did not want to make money, but time was limited. He could not waste his time preparing for the entrance exam of Heavenly Secret Pavilion on business.
When Fang Yuan entered the trainer’s equipment shop again, the shop a.s.sistant looked at Fang Yuan with great suspicion and brought him to the strength ring. Fang Yuan did not bargain and directly paid the full amount by swiping his card, this made the shop a.s.sistant’s att.i.tude a total change.
“It’s my honor to be able to serve you.” He handed the strength ring to Fang Yuan respectfully. The moment he touched the ring, a series of data appeared in Fang Yuan’s consciousness.
Equipment: Strength ring
Grade: Gold-high-grade
Description: Trainer’s equipment. When a trainer is equipped with this ring, the attack power of all pets on the battlefield will increase by 5%
Special attributes: If the wearer of the equipment learns the basic offensive skill, the attack power will increase by 10% instead of 5% .
The attributes were exactly the same as the description in the shop owner’s introduction. Next, Fang Yuan put the ring on his finger. following a clear sound of the system notification, the top grade equipment that Fang Yuan had obtained appeared!
[ Ding! Strength ring detected. Grade: Gold-high-grade. Attribute level: Gold-low-grade ]
[ Do you wish to proceed with 100 times increase? ]
[ Host can choose from the following ways to increase your strength. ]
[ First, give up the 100 times increase and obtain a gold-high-grade strength ring. ]
[ Second, proceed with 100 times increase in quality and obtain a platinum-low-grade tactical ring. ]
[ Third, proceed with 100 times increase in effect and obtain a gold-low-grade strength ring. The percentage of your attack power will increase to 15%. ]
Yi? Fang Yuan felt a little regret in his heart that it had only increased from 5% to 15%. He had thought that it would increase to 500%, but that was too exaggerated. It was like strengthening all his pet beasts by five times.
It seemed that there was a certain difference between a fixed number of increase and a percentage of increase. For example, a gold-low-grade could directly reach gold-high-grade after the 100 times increase while a gold-high-grade could only reach platinum-low-grade. A 100 times increase of platinum-low-grade could only reach the level of a platinum-intermediate grade.
As the grade increased, the enhancement given by the increase system would become less and less obvious.
Nevertheless, when the grade was higher, a small difference in the grade would have a difference in combat power which was like between heaven and earth.
Fang Yuan calmed down and thought that a 5% to 15% enhancement was very high, but he was more curious about the function of the tactical ring.
So he chose the tactical ring.
The others did not notice anything unusual, but Fang Yuan clearly felt that the ring in his hand had become heavier.
Equipment: Tactical Ring
Grade: Platinum Low-grade
Description: Trainer’s equipment. When a trainer is equipped with the ring, the basic attributes (including attack, defense, speed, and so on) of all pets on the battlefield will be increased by 10%
Special attributes: when the wearer learns the basic strengthening skill, the attributes will be increased by 20% instead of 10% .
Fang Yuan suddenly felt that this ring was a little useless. To him, the most important thing was the attack attributes. It was better to choose 15% attack instead.
However, on second thought, this was not bad for his defensive pet. The gryphon legion was now really the steel gryphon legion. The overall defense strength had increased by a level.
It was too ostentatious to wear the ring all the time, so Fang Yuan put the tactical ring into his backpack and would only equip it before battle.
At night, Fang Yuan was sitting in the hotel room and he heard a hurried knock on the door, which was very abrupt in the night.
“No, you can look elsewhere.”
A customer said in a low and impatient voice.
It reached Fang Yuan’s ears from outside the door.
The person who knocked on the door did not seem to have any intention to stop. He continued knocking on the door of another room. This time, there was an angry roar — “Get lost!”
Fang Yuan was very curious, so he opened the door to take a look. He saw a girl with braided hair knocking on the door room by room.
When she saw Fang Yuan open the door, she quickly ran over. In Fang Yuan’s memory, there were many people who provided special service in the hotel. Could this girl in front of him be one of those?
Just as Fang Yuan was thinking about how to reject her, the girl was opened her mount to speak first, “h.e.l.lo, Sir, is there a cat in your room? It’s my best friend. I saw it running toward this hotel, but I couldn’t sense it.”
Cat? Sense?
Fang Yuan asked, “Is the cat you’re talking about your pet beast? As the owner, how could you not sense its location?”
As if she felt that finally there was someone who was willing to pay attention to her, the girl immediately cried. It seemed that her heart was filled with grievance, and she cried until she was out of breath.
Many people in the hotel rooms made noise as obviously the soundproofing of this hotel was not very good.
Fang Yuan then pulled the girl into his room. At that instant, he noticed that there seemed to be someone looking at him with strange expression. However, he did not pay too much attention to it and slammed the door shut.
When the girl finally calmed down, he told Fang Yuan what had happened.
“My pet is the fiery charm cat. It’s a silver-intermediate-grade cat-type pet.” The girl took out a photo of her holding the kitten and said, “It’s very cute, isn’t it?”
Fang Yuan thought, “What’s the use of you holding the photo? Most of these pets look the same. In the event I b.u.mp into a cat that looks exactly the same, should I s.n.a.t.c.h it or not?”
Hearing that the cat was not in Fang Yuan’s room, she was feeling depressed again. With a cold look on her face, she walked toward the door.
When the door opened, Fang Yuan said, “Although your cat is not with me, I can help you find it.”
He did not know why he would say such a thing. Perhaps it was because he had recently discovered that the relationship between pets and humans was not as simple as master and servant. There was still feelings, and he could not bear to see a girl running around alone in the middle of the night.
“Huozi ran away from my hand in the afternoon. It seemed that it saw a sparrow and wanted to catch it. It broke free from my hand and I wanted to call it back. I therefore ran after it all the way until it ran into this hotel. I tried to summon it back but I couldn’t. It seemed that something had cut off our connection.”
As she said that, her eyes was red again. Her thin lips were tightly pursed, as if she was trying not to cry.
Sigh, Fang Yuan thought to himself, what an irresponsible master.
When it was hunting for the bird, she should have recalled it back into the s.p.a.ce of the contract gem. What if it got into a fight with other pet beasts and did not care about the safety of others? Pet beasts somehow were still wild in nature, and only the master could restrain it.
But since Fang Yuan had agreed to help her, he had to start thinking of a way. Knocking on the room door one by one was definitely an irrational behavior. Searching from the second floor to the sixth, this girl was really brave.
