Chapter 111: Corpse Beast
Chapter 111: Corpse Beast
In the Underground Cavern Sanctuary's management backend.
After Lu Wu used the summoning stone and summoned the summoning beast, and its quality was evaluated, there was a brief silence.
After a while, these four experienced veterans burst into action.
"How is this possible? How could it be Bronze?"
"Didn't we say these summoning stones were screened over and over again? How could there still be a Bronze Quality one left? How is the Logistics Department doing their job?
We haven't planned any gimmicks recently!
This is a commercial hidden realm, not a charity hidden realm, okay!"
"Also, how did he manage to find a Bronze Quality one among over a hundred summoning stones?
Could his talent really be that monstrous? Can he learn the skills to identify summoning stones in just a few hours?
Or is he really some kind of Chosen One with Remarkable Luck?"
...
From their words, it was clear that they really didn't want to believe this fact. After all, although they were the backend management of the sanctuary, they weren't big shots. These 200 Intranet Points were a heavy burden for them.
Only at this moment did they deeply understand the meaning of "Cherish Life, Stay Away from Gambling"!
...
Meanwhile, on Lu Wu's side.
At this moment, he was frantically wiping his hands because he had just touched the summoned summoning beast.
...
Name: Corpse Beast
Strength: 0 Stars (Newly Summoned Baby)
Quality: Bronze (Poor) (Upgradable)
Attributes: Undead, Immortal
Status: Hungry (Arbaba)
Weakness: Light
Description: A slightly promising Undead Lineage summoning beast, with an initial quality far superior to the Mini Skeleton.
...
Seeing the attributes of the summoning beast, Lu Wu took a few steps back in disgust and nodded at the staff member who had already been stunned: "Do you guys take this thing?"
"What?"
The staff member was a bit confused, still not having recovered from Lu Wu summoning a Bronze Quality summoning beast.
"I mean, do you guys want to buy this summoning beast baby?"
Lu Wu repeated himself. This time, the staff member heard clearly but was even more confused: "You don't want it?"
How could Lu Wu possibly want this thing?
After discovering he could feel the attributes of summoning stones, he had become quite arrogant, feeling that a Bronze Quality summoning beast was beneath him.
His second summoning beast should at least be Gold Quality, right?!
Moreover, Lu Wu was well aware that, although he had a "Golden Finger" to cultivate ordinary summoning beasts, it was too labor-intensive.
Currently, apart from the Mini Skeleton, he didn't plan to cultivate any others.
Of course, Lu Wu wasn't about to honestly tell the staff member the reason; he just needed to come up with an excuse.
"I already have an Undead Lineage summoning beast. Our Mini Skeleton is great, and we don't need another one!
Besides, it's too ugly. I'm afraid it will scare our Doudou."
Well, although Lu Wu's emotional intelligence wasn't high, he could occasionally say some high-emotion intelligence things.
Upon hearing this, the Mini Skeleton, who was curiously poking the Corpse Beast with its electric baseball bat, and Doudou, who was cowering behind Lu Wu, were both very happy.
The Mini Skeleton even showed off its electric abilities on the spot.
It was showing that the Mini Skeleton was super powerful, super beautiful, and Lu Wu super liked the Mini Skeleton!
The staff member, however, was at a loss for words.
What kind of ridiculous reason was this?
Not wanting another Undead Lineage summoning beast? Try telling that to summoners who specialize in the same lineage!
Besides, if you're only keeping one of the same lineage, wouldn't it be better to replace the Mini Skeleton with the Corpse Beast?
The audacity didn't just stop at criticizing his Summon Beast's appearance; they were judging it as if they were picking a wife, not a Summon Beast.
If they were so concerned about appearances, why didn't they show the same preference when choosing a girlfriend? How did their standards drop so low that they ended up with a plump girl as a wife?
Of course, the staff member only dared to complain in his heart. He didn't dare utter a single word of criticism, let alone show his true feelings. After all, they were dealing with a Bronze-quality Summon Beast baby that Lu Wu wanted to sell, and Lu Wu was already happy about it.
Lu Wu didn't mind its appearance; there were others who didn't care either.
However, this transaction wasn't something he could decide on his own. He had to report it to the administrators, the very four who had just realized the truth of 'Cherish Life, Stay Away from Gambling.'
They were also confused when they heard that Lu Wu wanted to sell this Summon Beast baby, but then they thought about it.
This kid was a Breeder, and breeders were known for their cunning and wealth! Moreover, he had accurately found a Bronze-quality Summoning Stone among hundreds of others, clearly indicating a certain level of expertise in identifying Summoning Stones. He didn't lack a Bronze-quality Summon Beast.
In their eyes, what they treasured might just be a blade of grass to him.
With this realization, the administrators' hearts ached even more.
Despite the aching hearts, the transaction had to proceed.
After confirming Lu Wu's intention to trade, they quickly sent a representative—the four old veterans claimed heart problems and sent a young staff member to handle the transaction with Lu Wu.
Perhaps it was because Lu Wu had helped the young staff member earn a significant amount of points, but he was particularly enthusiastic and accommodating towards Lu Wu.
He even helped Lu Wu negotiate the price.
In the end, with the young staff member's assistance, Lu Wu sold the Corpse Beast for 800 points to the Mystic Realm.
This price was what Lu Wu found after checking the Intranet; a Bronze-quality Summon Beast baby was worth around that much.
With the sale of the Summon Beast baby, Lu Wu's first Mystic Realm journey was coming to an end.
This journey had been quite fruitful for him.
He had improved his Summon Beast's strength, gained more knowledge about Summon Beast breeding, climbed the leaderboard, dealt a blow to the Hmmm Monster, and earned 800 Intranet points.
"Great. When I get back, I'll spend a few days organizing my gains, preparing everything I need, and testing each nurturing technique one by one. Then, I'll help the Mini Skeleton complete its first evolution as soon as possible."
After a quick review of his gains, Lu Wu called Li Kai to come and pick them up.
Li Kai was always ready to respond.
With a single call from Lu Wu, he immediately left the shop in the care of Wang Dashan, who was loitering there, and drove over to pick up Lu Wu and the others.
Lu Wu didn't have any friends in the Mystic Realm, so he didn't need to bid farewell to anyone when leaving.
He came quietly and left quietly.
What Lu Wu didn't know was that two people were secretly watching him leave.
One was the Hmmm Monster, who had just been made to cry and was now seething with anger.
The other was the young staff member who had just traded the Corpse Beast with Lu Wu and added him as a friend.
While the Hmmm Monster was filled with resentment, the young staff member felt a twinge of regret when he saw Li Kai arrive. As for what he regretted, no one knew.
