C6 Hatch Charmander!
"Congratulations to the host for successfully claiming the Novice Beast Tamer achievement!"
Achievement: Novice Beast Tamer
Wear Effect: Permanently gain a 50% increase in all pet battle power!
"A 50% boost in pet battle power—what a great find! Achievements even come with benefits like this."
In his past life, Symas, a black iron level breeder, knew all too well the challenges of enhancing a pet's battle power. It wasn't just about feeding them special materials; it also required the use of arcane techniques for stimulation.
Naturally, there were significant risks involved in boosting a pet's battle power. One misstep could even result in a decrease in power.
The higher the level of the pet breeder, the greater the likelihood of successful training.
An elite pet breeder working with a black iron level pet could expect a success rate of over 80%. In contrast, breeders of the same level might only see a 30% to 40% success rate.
At that moment, the Witchwood, having entered a small fire element nest, slithered to the edge of a spring, eagerly absorbing the water. Beneath it, faint glimmers of light from the dark red fire spar were being absorbed into the Witchwood's body.
"Ding! A sporadic fire attribute pet, Witchwood, has been detected. Would you like to spend 1,000,000 federal coins to accelerate the Witchwood's growth?"
[Nickname: Witchwood]
Quality: Black Iron 3 stars
Attribute: Fire
Level: Sporadic
Skills: Flame Bless, Spirit Snake Strangle.
Growth Progress: 12%. (Growth rate can be increased)
"Looks like it takes money to get stronger," Symas mused as he considered the system prompt, which suggested spending one million federal coins to hasten the Witchwood's growth. Even the flame potions on the market, designed to speed up the growth of fire attribute pets, cost 500,000 federal coins each.
But those could only speed up growth by 10%, and they came with numerous side effects. Many pets would become lethargic, and the potion could only be used once a year.
In his previous life, Symas's Witchwood had reached one star within the first month at Tamer University in the imperial capital, thanks to the fire marrow liquid provided by Jaylee.
Fire Pith Liquid is the ideal potion for the Witchwood's plant-based fire pets.
It can boost growth rates by a staggering 40%.
However, it's priced at over three million federal coins, and it's virtually impossible to find on the market.
Currently, Symas had only 1.8 million federal coins in his federal account.
He pondered for a moment.
Then his gaze settled on the fire dragon egg, with just an hour left on the countdown.
Dragon-type battle pets were the darlings of Tamer University, with the lowest aptitude being elite 7-stars.
Such battle pets weren't just formidable in their own right, with powerful attributes and battle power, but they also conferred various enhancements to their owners, boosting the owner's battle power.
He was full of anticipation.
If this one million federal coins could accelerate his pet's growth, he'd prefer to invest it in the dragon-type pet.
...
Symas waited for an hour.
Suddenly, a black crack split the surface of the foot-tall red dragon egg.
In the next instant.
A tender red head poked through the shell, and several shards of the translucent red eggshell tumbled onto the jade floor, tinkling as they fell.
Then.
The plump Charmander wriggled out of the shattered egg, its back adorned with folded dragon wings, its body enveloped in crimson scales.
Thud!
The Charmander, still unsteady on its feet, toppled over next to the dragon egg.
It then opened its mouth, latching onto a piece of eggshell nearby, crunching and swallowing it down into its belly.
The eggshell was incredibly beneficial for the newborn Charmander.
Nickname: Charmander
Quality: Overlord ten stars
Attribute: Fire
Level: Zero
Skills: Dragon's Roar, Fireball, Firewing Cut, Threefold Sprint...
Passive Skills: Increases the pet owner's strength by 100%, grants 10% immunity to fire-type attacks.
When Symas checked the Charmander's attribute panel,
the sight of the Overlord ten-star quality brought a thrill of elation to his eyes. The more he looked at Charmander, the fonder he grew.
A dragon-type with Overlord-level talent.
If it survives to maturity without perishing along the way, the Charmander's growth potential could reach the Overlord level—a tier of talent that's exceedingly rare within the entire Trintis Dukedom. Such super geniuses are few and far between, with only a handful emerging each year, and sometimes only one or two.
Once identified, these exceptional creatures are immediately sought after by the premier Tamer Universities. Moreover, this Charmander possesses a passive skill that grants it a 10% immunity to fire-based attacks—a trait typically found only in pets of the highest caliber.
Symas watched the Charmander voraciously consume its eggshell, knowing he needed to introduce this little one to the world in a calculated way. Suddenly, an idea sparked in his mind.
"Level C pet relic, the battle pet tomb!"
The battle pet tomb is virtually devoid of danger, inhabited only by minor beasts weaker than the one-star level. The relic's area is quite small, spanning no more than thirty miles, akin to a massive island. As its name implies, it's a graveyard for battle pets, containing countless petrified eggs.
In the past, tamers from Littlewell Base City have discovered elite pets within, which is why it's classified as a level C relic. Throughout the Trintis Dukedom, there are many such tombs, varying in size.
Their levels are generally not very high, and success is largely a matter of luck, with most containing deceased pets. After countless years, even if one were to crack open a pet egg, it would typically reveal nothing more than a lifeless pet. However, some pets manage to survive petrification, entering a prolonged state of hibernation.
Symas's plan is to use the battle pet tomb as a means to introduce the Charmander in a believable manner. Otherwise, for a novice who hasn't even achieved the black iron tamer level to suddenly have a dragon pet with Overlord-level talent would surely draw unwanted attention.
His primary concern is the Dark Order, whose members would likely send spies to target him. Symas recalls how, in his previous life, even the elite Idod met his demise. Therefore, he must engage in careful dialogue with the tamers responsible for assessing talent. Until he can ensure his own safety, he cannot afford to draw too much attention to himself, as the risks of remaining hidden are far too great.
Certainly.
To gain entry to the battle pet tomb, there are two options. One is to pay two hundred thousand federal coins for a single visit. With this, you can utilize the special tools provided by the Tamer Association to select and unseal one of the petrified battle pet eggs.
For three hundred thousand federal coins, you're likely purchasing a battle pet's dead egg. Most tamers are eager to secure a superior battle pet for their offspring.
There's an alternative route.
By becoming a pet breeder within the Tamer Association, you can earn a chance to enter for free.
Symas was particularly interested in seizing this complimentary access.
