Chapter 16: Abundant Harvest (Please Bookmark, Please Follow)
As for visiting the military’s breeding base, Chu Yi had no intention of going, nor had he made any move to do so. He had prepared his excuse long ago: Bika’s Mutated Evolution was entirely due to its "special bloodline," his own clever training, and a dash of good luck.
What Chu Yi found rather regrettable was that the Fireball Mice were no longer of value to him. Crimson Shadow couldn’t enhance any of Bika’s attributes; instead, a few "cups" of it were now stored in the "kitchen" of his Heaven-Eroding Feast.
"YIP!"
Bika buried its face in the lunchbox, eating with gusto.
Having advanced to the second stage, its form was delicate and beautiful. It boasted a coat of gorgeous reddish-brown fur that fluttered in the countryside breeze, tiny sparks dancing around it. Its belly was snow-white, its limbs long, and black stripes on the outside of its legs extended to its paws. It was no longer as small and frail as it had been at first; amidst its cuteness, there was a clear look of agility.
This Red Fox has no contract markings. Could it be the little Red Fox from this morning? Zhang Han paused, a flicker of doubt in his eyes. He scanned it with his Star Bracelet, but the information was completely blank; its owner had set it to private.
Apart from one’s own contracted Pet Beasts, owners also had the right to set privacy for some adopted Pet Beasts. For example, in the Federation’s registry, Bika was listed as belonging to Chu Yi.
"Um... excuse me, would you mind if we joined you for a meal?" Lin Xiaomeng asked with a smile. She was looking for an excuse to get closer, wanting to have a deeper conversation with this Beast Tamer.
The other three’s eyes lit up. Isn’t this a great opportunity to cozy up to someone powerful? Don’t forget we have a mission this afternoon; we definitely need to ask for some serious advice!
"I’d advise you to keep your distance," Chu Yi said, raising his head and giving them a cursory glance. "It’s very dangerous here."
Through his contracted eyes, his field of vision was vast, and he had caught a faint stirring. Having killed so many Fireball Mice, given their nature, they definitely wouldn’t let this go easily.
However, the group of four assumed he was rejecting them. Their expressions turned awkward and rather unpleasant. They just stood there, watching Chu Yi and Bika happily devour their food, which only made them hungrier.
