In the pet animal breeding base in Bingyuan City, in the dormitory building for intern breeders, most of the interns are packing their luggage in the dormitory.
These interns have gained a lot from their internship experience during this period, but now that it’s time to leave, many of them are more looking forward to it than reluctant to leave.
Like Shi Yu, he is looking forward to it because after the internship is over and the certificate is obtained, he can finally develop freely!
During the internship, Shi Yu was a type of employee who was relatively down-to-earth and worked hard, and he completed his work very well.
Other interns spend their free time playing cards in twos and threes for entertainment, but Shi Yu is different.
He temporarily assumed the withdrawn character of his predecessor and rarely communicated with others.
Of course, Shi Yu was not depressed. He was too lazy to communicate with his fellow interns because he had more important things to do.
Rather than communicating with people, he prefers to chat with his pets and cultivate relationships.
You can not only exercise your telepathy talent, but also find opportunities to learn skills secretly!
If it weren't for the upper limit for the collection of skill illustrations, he felt that he would have copied dozens of skills.
Shi Yu discovered that telepathy and skill illustrations are more effective when used together.
If you encounter powerful extraordinary creatures in the future, using telepathy to hug your thighs and using skill illustrations to gather wool seems to be a good combination...
Well... in short, he has not wasted these three months.
After successfully obtaining the internship certificate, Shi Yu left here happily.
Although there will be no convenient place for him to copy skills in the future, he is still very excited to finally be able to contract pet beasts and use the skill illustrations in person.
The more he understands this world, the more he realizes that there is really no future here if he does not become a beastmaster.
For the sake of your future living standard, set a small goal first and become a professional beast master within a year.
…
The early morning sun shines through the thin clouds on Shi Yu.
After walking out of the Icefield City Pet Breeding Base, Shi Yu, who was carrying a backpack, looked back for the last time.
It stands to reason that this is also a place where pet beast cubs are sold, and there are many kinds...
However, Shi Yu, who has interned here, knows that the pet beast cubs here are too expensive...
Of course, this is not the problem of the pet base, but his problem.
Therefore, it is better to live in the suburbs.
Although there are fewer types of pet animals, at least the locals have preferential policies.
The city where Shi Yu is currently located is called Bingyuan City, and his school and internship location are both in this city.
Domestically, Icefield City is a secondary city.
There are more than 100 secondary cities like Icefield City in the country.
Icefield City is relatively developed. After all, there are only a handful of nine first-level cities that can overwhelm Icefield City in urban construction.
It's the same everywhere. The more developed the place, the higher the consumption level, so Shi Yu can only go to lower places for the time being.
His place of birth is a suburb of Bingyuan City called Pingcheng District.
Although it is a suburb there, after reconstruction, the beast-taming industry is relatively developed.
In addition, in order to support the local beast-taming industry, locals registered as beast-tamers and received discounts when purchasing pet beasts. My predecessor took advantage of an event to quickly pay a deposit for an iron-eating beast cub.
Now, it should be time to collect the batch of iron-eating beast cubs.
After the internship ended, he went back to school and went through the formalities. After getting all the certificates, Shi Yu returned to Pingcheng District.
Ten years ago, Pingcheng suffered from a beast wave and many families were ruined. Shi Yu's family did not escape the disaster.
However, after such a long time, the previous order has been restored here.
Ten years have changed a lot. Pingcheng, which had no defensive facilities before, has built high walls and stationed the Beast Tamer Association branch and the Beast Taming Corps.
At this time, Pingcheng was not as prosperous as a big city, but it was not particularly backward. At least the transportation and communications were acceptable, and it was just a little behind in the entertainment industry.
In the urban area of Icefield City, there are often various beast control competitions.
But here in Pingcheng, animal control competitions are relatively rare.
After finally returning to Pingcheng, Shi Yu's first goal was not to go home.
His destination is very clear, it is one of the three major breeding bases in Pingcheng, the Tiezhu Breeding Base.
Don't go through all the procedures before coming back so that you can get the pet beast as soon as possible.
He really couldn't wait any longer.
In Pingcheng District, there are three pet animal breeding bases.
All three are jointly run by individuals. There are very few types of pet beasts, and the species with the highest race level is only medium extraordinary, which is incomparable with the official pet breeding base in Icefield City.
The Tiezhu breeding base that Shi Yu is going to is a family-run breeding base.
The Iron Bamboo Breeding Base is located in the dense iron bamboo forest in the back mountains of Pingcheng District, where more than 800 iron-eating beasts are raised.
The iron-eating beast is considered a special pet animal in Pingcheng District and even in China. Looking at the whole country, the number of iron-eating beasts may not exceed 5,000.
Other countries don't have it either.
It is worth mentioning that this world is different from the earth, because most of the areas are occupied by extraordinary creatures, and humans only have seven countries.
The country where Shi Yu is currently located is called the Brilliant Ancient Kingdom of the East by other countries. It is one of the oldest countries, and is referred to as Donghuang.
After a while, Shi Yu took a bus and arrived near the back mountain of Pingcheng District, planning to climb a mountain.
A flat trail has been built in the mountain. In addition to being a breeding base, it is also open as a tourist scenic spot at fixed times.
However, it seems that it is not an open day during this period, and the surrounding area is deserted.
After walking a few steps, Shi Yu arrived at the gatekeeper's office of the Tiezhu Breeding Base. This was the only passage and the surrounding area was blocked. Shi Yu glanced at the pavilion next to him and walked over.
By the window of the pavilion, an old man wearing a blue coat and thinning hair was reading a newspaper. When he noticed someone approaching, he pushed up his reading glasses, trying hard to see who it was.
Shi Yu: "..."
So this guard is serious?
Forget it, you can't judge a book by its appearance...
Maybe someone who looks unreliable can summon a giant dragon at will.
"Hello, I have reserved an iron-eating beast cub here before, and I plan to go through the pick-up procedures in the near future. I wanted to come over and take a look today."
Shi Yu said loudly, fearing that the uncle could not hear clearly.
"Oh." Although the uncle looked out of place, he was not confused.
Hearing Shi Yu say this, he understood instantly.
"Wait a moment, I will notify the breeder inside to come over." The uncle replied and dialed the landline on the table.
After he told the receiver about the situation here, Shi Yu also began to wait slowly.
He was not kept waiting for too long. A figure nearly two meters tall, with a black and white appearance, a plump body, a round head and a short tail, walked over from inside the breeding area.
Shi Yu looked at this guy walking slowly and fell into deep thought.
Immediately afterwards, this guy, who looked like a standing giant panda no matter how he looked at it, opened the door from the inside and came to Shi Yu.
And, he pointed to the brand on his chest.
It read: "Staff."
"Hello." It/he/she rubbed the bear's paws and made a low voice that was indistinguishable from male to female.
Shi Yu:???
Can we have some earthly employees who don’t live in trouble?
"Don't be surprised, this is just a life-size Iron Eater doll costume." The staff said.
It's just because you're wearing a doll suit that I'm surprised. No serious person would wear a doll suit on a hot day!
"I am a staff member here, Lin Xiuzhu."
"I'm Shi Yu." Shi Yu said, "But if you dress like this, won't you really feel hot?"
"There is no way, this is all to better understand the mood of the iron-eating beasts." Lin Xiuzhu said: "If you want to cultivate iron-eating beasts well, you must fully understand them."
"This is the most basic skill of a breeder."
Shi Yu: "It makes sense."
Believe it or not.
Whatever you say is what it is.
Just be happy.
"I remember from the information, Mr. Shi Yu, you are also a graduate majoring in breeding. No wonder you can understand me."
There shouldn't be many people who have booked Iron Eater recently, but the other party actually knows Shi Yu's information by his name.
"Yes, but we are still just newcomers, and Senior Sister Teru Lin is far behind."
Although the name was very masculine, Shi Yu still recognized that the other party's voice was that of a girl, and judged that the other party was also a graduate majoring in breeding.
This time, the senior sister immediately brought the relationship closer, hoping to get some discounts later.
Lin Xiuzhu: "Thank you. Anyone can try this method. After you receive the pet beast, I can sell you two sets of doll costumes at a discount."
Shi Yu:???
The discount is a discount, but not a complete discount.
Are you the business genius?
I don't want it!
Shi Yu didn't say anything for the time being, waiting for him to choose a pet before refusing...
It’s just a bundle of food. Is it even reasonable to sell COS clothes together?
Next, a staff member named Lin Xiuzhu took Shi Yu into the pavilion next to him.
She first started to take off her doll costume.
Only then did Shi Yu know what the person under the doll looked like.
Underneath the doll suit is a royal lady who is about twenty-four or five years old.
The other person has delicate features, a tall figure, and beautiful long black hair. However, because he was wearing a doll costume just now, his hair is a little messy.
But the other party didn't care, his expression was very casual.
Right now, Shi Yu really wants to ask, how much do you like giant pandas?
Because the clothes worn by the opponent's doll turned out to be the same as those worn by the Iron-eating Beast.
It was white shorts with black spots, a loose but slightly bulging black and white sweatshirt, and a hat with panda ears hanging on the back.
Are you going to sell me a set of these clothes later?
"Let's register first. By the way, have you brought all the materials?" She took a long breath and said to Shi Yu.
The procedures for purchasing and collecting pet animals from the breeding base are quite cumbersome.
What's more, it's Shi Yu who needs a loan to buy a pet beast.
The breeding base must obtain complete certification materials.
This process will take a long time to complete.
Fortunately, Shi Yu applied for all the certificates when he was in Icefield City, so the materials should be quite complete now.
"Bring it all together."
Next, Shi Yu registered with the help of Lin Xiuzhu, and the two of them verified the relevant materials one by one.
After the verification, Lin Xiuzhu nodded and said: "Then you should be able to receive the pet beast today."
"Can you do it today?"
"Then can I choose now?" Shi Yu was surprised.
The previous reservation deposit did not specify an individual.
Therefore, the specific choice of which iron-eating beast cub must be selected by the beastmaster himself, and the affinity between the two parties is very important.
Lin Xiuzhu shook his head and said, "If you came earlier, you might be able to choose."
"The current situation is like this. This batch of iron-eating beast cubs has been selected and only one is left."
"Moreover, this one has some problems with his physique and personality..."
"..." Shi Yu was startled, what kind of situation is this, this unfolding... Xiaozhi is actually me?
