Pet Simulator

“Chirp, chirp!” When Xiao Jiu came to, it flapped its wings and let out a furious cry!

It was the insect! The insect again!

“It’s fine, it’s fine,” Wang Ye quickly calmed Xiao Jiu’s rather angry mood.

It had already been killed many times by the same little green insect many times in the script simulation, to the point it was about to develop a stress disorder to insects.

“The insects in reality are very weak,” Wang Ye coughed. “Really, I won’t lie to you. When we have time, I’ll bring you somewhere to peck a few.”

Hearing this Xiao Jiu chirped softly and stopped crying.

“After entering the Baisen Secret Realm, we’ll hear a strange cry. Judging from the simulation just now, the cry will make people go crazy and become bloodthirsty. So this should also be the reason that Xu Hu and Cheng Zhi attacked me in the first simulation... But why didn’t I get this information then? Also, why was it that only Xu Hu and Cheng Zhi were shown to become crazy and bloodthirsty in the simulation? Why didn’t I? Wait...” Vaguely, Wang Ye seemed to have thought of something, but he wasn’t sure.

What was that scream, anyway?

On the other hand... “As expected of a secret realm. There are quite a few treasures.”

After etching these two pieces of information in his brain, Wang Ye took some medicine while he rested.

An hour later, Wang Ye put away his tent.

It was currently night time. Strangely, the surroundings that should have been covered in darkness were still bright.

The moon in the sky was extremely bright.

Especially in front of them, where there was a hazy white light. 𝑓𝘳ℯ𝒆w𝘦𝘣𝙣𝘰ѵ𝘦𝚕.c𝗼𝓶

“The secret realm is a unique space. The Baisen Secret Realm only appears at night. As such, based on experience, we can only enter at night. That piece of white forest in front of us that is bathing in the moonlight is the Baisen Secret Realm. The secret realm is extremely dangerous. This time, we only need to investigate the situation of the fierce beasts inside and the general area of the secret realm. As for the detailed reason for the appearance of the secret realm, it’s not something we’re capable of investigating,” After Xu Hu had given his instructions, he quickly led Wang Ye and Cheng Zhi to the front.

On the way, Wang Ye asked casually, “Big brother Xu, if we find something good in the secret realm, will it belong to us or the organization?”

Xu Hu smiled and said, “It’ll, of course, belong to whoever finds it. That being said, even experienced Platinum-grade investigators may not be able to find anything good in the secret realm. Only those Master investigators can find some treasures based on the clues. Of course, if you’re lucky, you can just forget what I said. Take me for example. I’ve investigated nearly eight miniature secret realms, and I’ve only been lucky enough to have once found a wood leaf spiritual core that was worth a few hundred thousand. Normally, secret realms will only be officially open to the public after their information has been thoroughly investigated. At that time, a large number of beastmasters will swarm in. The probability of finding treasures then is usually higher.”

In simple terms, the secret realms had many treasures, but one simply couldn’t find them.

Only experienced investigators had a higher probability of finding them.

“I don’t have much experience, but I have a cheat”, Wang Ye thought to himself.

“I see,” Wang ye nodded, “Oh right, big brother Xu, will we be somehow affected when we enter such a miniature secret realm?”

“Hm?” Xu Hu looked at Wang Ye in surprise, “Young man, you’re very vigilant, not bad. Since we don’t know much about secret realms, we might be affected when we enter. The effects of an ordinary secret realm include the decrease of spiritual energy value, abnormal mental state, hearing some strange sounds, expansion of the blood vessels, broken consciousness, abnormal perception, and the list goes on. Generally, they are all related to strangeness. However, these will usually only appear in medium and large secret realms. They almost never appear in miniature secret realms. Though, after hearing what you said, I feel that it’s better to be more cautious.”

Wang Ye’s heart skipped a beat.

He didn’t know about all this.

“What does it mean to hear some strange sounds?” Wang Ye asked.

“Usually, when one hears some strange sounds in a secret realm, it means that a low-level strange god, the song demon, has appeared. They usually hide in the darkness of the secret realm, and will emit strange sounds. After hearing the sounds, both beastmasters and pets will be affected. They won’t recognize anyone and they’ll be bloodthirsty. They won’t even know that they’ve heard the sounds,” Xu Hu said solemnly, “They’re extremely dangerous!”

“Could there be a song demon in the Baisen Secret Realm?” Cheng Zhi interjected, a little afraid.

“It’s quite unlikely. Low-level strange gods only appear occasionally in medium secret realms and above. It’s very common in the dark fog, but it’s not something we can deal with. According to the report, when the Baisen Secret Realm appeared, it didn’t cause much spatial fluctuations, so it can only be considered a miniature secret realm.”

Wang Ye understood.

Song demon, a low-level strange god.

“Big brother Xu, what are Song demons usually afraid of?” Wang Ye asked casually.

“What they’re afraid of?” Xu Hu was taken aback, “Why? Are you thinking of exchanging blows with them? Don’t think too much about it. It’s impossible. The song demos won’t be affected by any attributed attacks. They’re only afraid of soul-type skills. On top of that, even level 3 pets might not be its match. Only when you have a level 4 pet will you be able to let your pet learn some soul-type skills, and only then will you be able to kill those troublesome things. Besides, soul-type pets are relatively rare. Even the Anping County Investigation Corps doesn’t have many of them.”

“Understood,” Wang Ye nodded.

He roughly knew what had killed him after they had entered the Baisen Secret Realm’s core in the reality simulation.

There was a high probability that they had been attacked by a song demon after they saw the white insect.

“Come, eat this,” Xu Hu hesitated for a moment and took out some round pills, “This is the evil-dispelling pill. After taking it, we will be immune to the effects of the secret realm for a while. If there really is the strange power of a low-level strange god like the song demon in there, we will be able to react and retreat immediately.”

“This should be very expensive, right?” Cheng Zhi hesitated for a moment, “Is it appropriate for us to take it?”

It cost 10,000 yuan per pill, indeed very expensive.

“Anything related to the secret realms is ridiculously expensive,” Wang Ye said in his heart. He had seen this kind of pill when he was buying medicine on the forum.

“It’s not, so give me money when we go back,” Xu Hu said, “I’m poor too.”

Cheng Zhi was speechless.

“I’m just kidding,” Xu Hu smiled helplessly before continuing, “Since I lead you here, I have to bring you back safely, right? Otherwise, boss Tang won’t let me go. Over the years, there have been fewer and fewer people joining the Investigation Corps.”

Wang Ye took the pill from Xu Hu. He didn’t find anything wrong with it, but he didn’t swallow it and simply held it in his mouth.

The three then entered the secret realm through the layer of white light.

The moment they entered, a strange sound suddenly came from all directions.

Xu Hu was in a trance for a moment. Then, his expression changed drastically, “You are right. To think there’s a song demon. Retreat quickly! There’s a big problem with this secret realm, it’s not something we can investigate!”

Cheng Zhi, who was standing at the side, immediately came to her senses as well and hurriedly retreated.

Just as the two of them exited the secret realm, Xu Hu looked around and his expression changed, “Where’s Wang Ye?”

“I... I think I saw him shouting ‘kill’ then he ran inside,” Cheng Zhi was stunned for a moment before she recalled what she had seen, “Didn’t he take the evil-dispelling pill? Why isn’t it working?”

“He’s been affected,” Xu Hu’s expression was heavy, “Wang Ye is a little weak. Even after taking the evil-dispelling pill, he might not be able to resist the voice of the Song demon.”

“Then what should we do?”Cheng Zhi frowned.

“Wait here. I’ll go in and take a look,” Xu Hu gritted his teeth, “My talent is Full Spirit, so after taking the evil-dispelling pill, I can still resist the song demon’s sounds for a while.”

At this moment, Wang Ye who had already entered the secret realm was rubbing his hands together in anticipation!

“Time for the treasure hunt!”
