Fang Yuan continued to move forward and soon walked out of the dense forest.
The water source of the river stopped there.
He set up a simple tent at the end of the tributary and planned to continue exploring ahead. If he did not find the next water source, he would return in time.
Outside the forest, there was a garden.
The garden was home to a large number of wild pet beasts with grass attributes.
Rodent Rats, rattlesnakes, thick-feathered moths, and other rare pet beasts came and went in groups here.
No wonder everyone had chosen to come to the arcane realm to cultivate.
But among these pet beasts, Fang Yuan made some simple choices.
He wanted to prepare for his mother a natal pet beast. It was not something that could be casually captured and brought back.
His mother was a veterinary doctor in the pet hospital.
So it was best for the pet to be a support-type pet, which could provide considerable help in her work.
But at the same time, it could not be completely without combat power.
Otherwise, he would not be able to rest assured when he was out.
After a period of screening, he selected the type of pet he wanted to capture.
Light butterfly.
This type of pet had three aspects: attack, defense, and support.
It could be said that it was a type of pet with a very balanced ability.
Attack skill, wind, could form a miniature tornado of wind, blowing the enemy away.
Defense skill, iron wings, using the wings in front to form a light barrier, could completely defend against the normal attacks of low-level pets.
Support skill, healing ray, the effect was similar to that of the queen bee. The ray could be refracted at least three times.
It was equivalent to group therapy skill, which was very rare.
There was also a support skill, flying. Trainers could ride on the back of the light butterfly and fly.
This skill could also be used in battle.
This was because the effect of air-to-ground strikes was very powerful.
If one could catch a light butterfly that had all four skills at the same time, it would be the perfect pet.
It could completely replace the previous first-aid bee.
As the mother’s new contracted natal beast, it could even be said that it would be even better.
Fang Yuan continued to walk forward.
In front of him was the light butterfly’s main habitat, the sea of light flowers.
The sea of flowers was in the middle of this grassland.
It was filled with flying butterflies.
“Come out, Iris!”
The iris spider king responded and appeared. First, it used [ swiftness ] to greatly increase its movement speed and attack speed.
Next, it used [ spider silk ] to pull the light butterfly flying in the sky to the ground.
Then, it used [ paralysis ] or [ fangs ] to make the opponent, light butterfly, enter a state of paralysis or poisoning, any kind of abnormal state.
Finally, it was Fang Yuan’s job.
He had to take out the contract gem and contract with the light butterfly.
However, there was also a problem.
The light butterflies in the sea of flowers all looked the same, and their qualities were uneven.
The vast majority of them were black iron.
Needless to say, there were only two black iron skill slots, so he could directly release them.
(The reason for releasing them was to gain more bonus points.)
The bronze and silver pet that appeared occasionally might not have these four skills.
The description of the pet skill, Fang Yuan had learned it in Class A long time ago. In theory, a pet of the same breed might be able to master many skills.
However, when it came to each of these pet beasts, the skills that they actually mastered were random.
That was to say, even if Fang Yuan caught a silver-quality light butterfly, the skills it mastered might not necessarily be the [ wind ] , [ iron wings ] , [ healing ray ] , and [ flight ] .
It could also be the other four.
For example, [ crash ] , [ dodge ] , [ daydream ] were useless skills.
To find a perfect four-skill light butterfly, it would take a very, very long time.
What was the most valuable thing in the arcane realm? Time!
Therefore, no one would choose to pick and choose. It was more important to catch the pet first.
However, Fang Yuan was different.
He was not worried about time. On the contrary, he was more concerned about the perfect appearance of his mother’s natal pet.
That was his mother!
Now, he still had about 150 days.
He could completely invest in capturing the light butterfly.
In any case, pet-catching was the same as pet-fighting. Both could bring experience and bonus points.
There was nothing bad about it.
Thus, Fang Yuan brought Iris and started the Ten Mile Slope sword god mode again, until he was only left with a single digit of 100 contract gems.
Only then did he stop.
There were dozens of light butterflies in his hands. They were colorful, had different patterns and skills. However, they all had the same characteristic.
All of them were bronze-quality and above.
That was because Fang Yuan had directly released the black-iron ones.
They were not even worth occupying the space of a contract gem.
Hard work paid off.
In the end, Fang Yuan still managed to catch a low-silver light butterfly. It had four skills that he desired.
He used a hundred times amplification to increase it to high-silver.
He carefully marked the contract gem and placed it in his pocket, planning to give it to his mother when he returned home.
When Fang Yuan packed his luggage and stepped into the sea of flowers again, he discovered that there were no longer any butterflies lingering around this beautiful place.
He had basically caught it and made it extinct.
In this place, the iris spider king that had used control skills countless times.
Due to the repeated and deliberate practice, its level had even been upgraded to level 3 intermediate.
The [ spider silk ] skill had also been upgraded to [ spider web ] , increasing its control time and range.
It was even more awe-inspiring to Fang Yuan.
It thought that this was a method and a planned training, a great game of chess.
“Iris, hurry! The soil in the center of the sea of flowers is moving. Use [ spider web ] !”
Fang Yuan gave the order, and Iris immediately followed.
A thin and elastic spider web quickly covered the soil.
Looking closely, it was not soil, but a rare pet beast, commonly known as meat pocket.
This was a pet beast that looked like a piece of meat.
Its single eye was in the middle, and its mouth looked like it had been stitched by a needle. It was quite scary.
However, it was actually quite docile.
Even though it was only a black iron grade, Fang Yuan immediately signed a contract with it without hesitating to use the few remaining gems.
In fact, its rarity did not lie in its strength, but its tool attributes.
Chester had a skill called storage.
It could store a large amount of food in its body and it would not rot after a long time.
In short, it was a mobile refrigerator.
It was quite convenient.
Fang Yuan’s this contracted pet also had a skill called navigation, which allowed it to find food and water within its range.
It could be said that it was an essential pet beast for survival in the wild.
“Chester, help me navigate to the nearest water source.”
Seeing that it was already late.
Fang Yuan gave an order to the meat pocket, which was also the pet beast that he it named Chester.
“Chester is guiding master.”
He let out a muffled voice. “1.8 kilometers southeast, there is a forest of baobabs that can provide sufficient drinking water.”
