Chapter 152 - 130: Just This Little Box?
Chapter 152: Chapter 130: Just This Little Box?
Fang Xiu looked at Jiang Xingzhou.
’So this is a Beast Tamer?’
Fang Xiu was somewhat curious about this Beast Tamer Profession.
In his original world, he had read quite a few novels about Beast Tamers.
He just never imagined that such a world actually existed.
And now, Fang Xiu was seeing the Profession of a Beast Tamer with his own eyes. He was a little curious.
But in contrast to Fang Xiu’s curiosity,
Jiang Xingzhou, standing to the side, was staring at him in utter shock.
"Boss, what’s wrong?"
Zong Yun, standing nearby, noticed something was off with Jiang Xingzhou and asked with curiosity.
"This Mutated Demon Beast... I contracted it very easily!"
Jiang Xingzhou finally said.
"Isn’t that great? It means you and this Mutated Demon Beast are highly compatible!"
Hearing this, Zong Yun let out a sigh of relief.
For a Beast Tamer, this was a good thing.
The easier a Demon Beast was to contract, the higher the compatibility with the Beast Tamer.
And this Mutated Demon Beast was contracted so easily.
This was enough to prove that the compatibility between Jiang Xingzhou and this Mutated Demon Beast was extremely high.
"No... I just felt the Mutated Demon Beast’s emotions!"
Jiang Xingzhou shook his head and said.
"Emotions? What kind of emotions?"
Zong Yun asked, a bit curious.
’What kind of emotions could a Demon Beast have?’
"Fear, and relief..."
Jiang Xingzhou described the emotions he felt to his teammates.
Everyone was slightly stunned.
’This... What kind of messed-up emotions are these? Fear and relief at the same time?’
’Something’s not right!’
’How could it have two conflicting emotions at once?’
"It’s probably... the Demon Beast’s fear of Brother Fang, and its relief at being contracted by me!"
Jiang Xingzhou thought for a moment and explained.
Everyone: ...
"Holy shit! So you’re saying this Level 50 Mutated Demon Beast was beaten into submission?"
One of them reacted, getting a little excited.
"And then when you contracted it, boss, the Level 50 Mutated Demon Beast actually felt *relieved*?"
another person added, analyzing the situation.
Jiang Xingzhou nodded.
He said in a low voice, "Don’t you guys ever provoke Brother Fang. He’s someone we can’t afford to offend!"
"We know. Ever since Second Brother’s Guardian Beast was sent flying with one punch, I knew this guy was not to be messed with!"
Someone immediately spoke up as soon as Jiang Xingzhou finished.
The others all nodded repeatedly.
After all, Second Brother was still lying unconscious in the shade of a tree.
"Alright, Zong Yun, your... ahem!"
Jiang Xingzhou looked at Zong Yun.
He said, a little awkwardly.
Hearing this, Zong Yun’s cheeks flushed slightly.
Then she nodded.
"Brother Fang, wait a moment. I’ll go... get it for you now!"
Zong Yun looked at Fang Xiu and said timidly.
Fang Xiu nodded.
He watched as Zong Yun walked directly towards a patch of bushes not far away.
Before long, a rustling sound came from within.
Hearing this sound, Jiang Xingzhou and the others swallowed hard.
Fang Xiu looked at them, a little puzzled.
A moment later, Zong Yun emerged from the bushes, her face slightly flushed.
By now, she had already taken off her thigh-highs.
She was holding them clutched in her hand.
She walked toward Fang Xiu, looking a little embarrassed.
And Fang Xiu, seeing the thigh-highs in her hand, was also a little excited.
Because the system was still reminding him that this item could be Sacrificed to the Evil Dragon Fafnir.
Unconsciously, the corners of Fang Xiu’s mouth curved into a slight smile.
But to the others watching, it just looked like Fang Xiu was getting excited at the sight of the thigh-highs.
"Ahem!"
Noticing the stares from those around him,
Fang Xiu gave an awkward cough.
After all, he couldn’t exactly explain this whole thing.
"Brother Fang, this... is for you!"
Zong Yun shyly thrust the thigh-highs from her hand into Fang Xiu’s.
Feeling the stockings, which were still warm,
Fang Xiu quickly put them away.
’I’m not the Evil Dragon Fafnir, after all.’
’I don’t have such a strange fetish.’
But when Zong Yun saw Fang Xiu’s actions, she grew even more shy.
In the eyes of Jiang Xingzhou and the others,
it looked like Fang Xiu couldn’t wait to put the thigh-highs away.
That eagerness, combined with the earlier smile on his lips and the things he had said...
Putting it all together,
everyone felt that this young man, Fang Xiu, was quite something else.
Fang Xiu didn’t bother to explain.
He said to Jiang Xingzhou and the others, "My time in here isn’t very long, so I want to look around some more. I’ll be taking my leave!"
He only had a little over a day left.
Fang Xiu still hadn’t seen any of the so-called special locations or special items here.
If he couldn’t find anything in the day or so he had left, then there was nothing to be done about it.
"Is that so? What a pity. Now that we’ve obtained our Contracted Beasts, we have to leave!"
Jiang Xingzhou explained.
Fang Xiu nodded slightly. "Then, goodbye!"
"Goodbye!"
Jiang Xingzhou and his group bid farewell to Fang Xiu.
...
"Uncle Ye, I need to relieve myself. Wait for me here!"
Fang Xiu said to Ye Fan after they had walked for some distance.
"Alright, alright. Take your time, no rush!"
Ye Fan had a look on his face that said, ’I get it’.
It left Fang Xiu speechless.
Just now, when Jiang Xingzhou and his group watched him leave, they had the same look in their eyes.
Then again, Fang Xiu’s behavior did have a hint of "eagerness" to it.
Having no other choice, Fang Xiu walked directly into a nearby patch of bushes.
After walking a fair distance,
Fang Xiu felt that the area was safe.
Only then did he take out the thigh-highs from before.
’I really don’t know why Fafnir likes this stuff!’
They still had the scent of perfume on them.
Fang Xiu felt a bit disgusted.
But he had no choice. It was for the Sacrifice.
"Mr. Fafnir, I’ve gotten the thigh-highs you wanted. I now Sacrifice them to you!"
Fang Xiu said calmly.
He activated the Sacrifice Skill.
Instantly, a ray of light appeared and enveloped the thigh-highs.
Because the thigh-highs wouldn’t struggle and weren’t a particularly valuable item,
they vanished in an instant.
And Fang Xiu waited to see what kind of reward these stockings he found so distasteful would bring him.
Fortunately, the light this time didn’t last for very long.
It vanished not long after it appeared.
And in its place, a small box was left behind.
A very small box.
"This is all I get?"
Fang Xiu looked at the small box before him, a little curious.
After all, he had traded it for Fafnir’s favorite thing.
However, the value of the stockings didn’t seem particularly high.
So, Fang Xiu wasn’t surprised to receive such a small box.
’But what could possibly fit inside such a tiny box?’
’Let’s see!’
Fang Xiu didn’t hesitate.
As long as the Sacrifice was correct, no matter what was given in return,
it would definitely not harm Fang Xiu.
Even if the reward was terrible, it was still a good thing.
It wouldn’t be a punishment or anything like that.
So Fang Xiu didn’t need to hesitate. He picked up the small box and opened it right away!
