Rhinocerosi

Translator: 549690339

“This wilderness is called the Sighing Wilderness.”

“In the hundreds of years since the establishment of Qingzhou City, battles between humans and transcendent beings often occur. Every inch of this soil is buried with the blood and bones of human Beast Masters and Transcendent Beings.”

Liu Gu patted Xu Ran on the shoulder, “We should depart now.’1

“Hmm.”

Xu Ran nodded, taking a deep look at the forest at the end of their sight.

Perhaps, when he becomes stronger, he can venture there.

“Meow-”

Seemingly aware of Xu Ran’s thoughts, Ziyun poked her head out from his embrace, her needle-like pupils also looking towards the forest.

One day, a stronger her and the Beast Master will conquer it!

From the crowd, Du Heng took a step forward, the Hexagram Star Array that lit up behind him stirred up a gale.

A rhinoceros, five meters long and its back covered with iron armor, stepped out, attracting quite a bit of attention from the people around.

“Is this the Armored Rhinoceros?” Xu Ran took a deep breath. The first thing that came to his mind was how much physical effort it would take to clean and wash such a massive creature.

“Yes, this big guy is really formidable.” Zhang Yun laughed, “The Armored Rhinoceros is responsible for guarding and defending our team, while its massive size can be used for transportation and assistance in carrying resources.”

“Sir Xu, feel assured to sit on it. Its temperament is very mild.” Du Heng’s face softened, he patted the back of the Armored Rhinoceros, gesturing Xu Ran to ride.

“Okay.” Looking at this colossal creature, Xu Ran was somewhat eager to try. Holding Ziyun in his arms, he vaulted onto the back of the Armored Rhinoceros.

Despite being covered in armor, the back of the creature was not at all uncomfortable. Instead, its broadness provided a great sense of security.

With everyone seated, the Armored Rhinoceros began its swift march forward, and Xu Ran couldn’t help expressing his amazement.

“Having a contract with such a creature is indeed amazing.”

“Meow?!” (What?!)

Ziyun’s ears perked upon hearing this, and she bristled.

Is the Beast Master going to contract other Pet Beasts?

Although she had seen the other Beast Masters who came yesterday having contracts with more than one Pet Beast and was conscious of such a day coming, hearing Xu Ran bring it up actively made her slightly upset.

“Even if we have new partners in the future, they would be your younger siblings. You would be their big sister.” Noticing Ziyun’s change, Xu Ran rubbed her head, comfortingly saying.

He suddenly found the idea of having multiple contracted Pet Beasts quite similar to raising multiple children, which felt somehow amusing.

“Meow-” (Is that so…)

Ziyun showed a thoughtful expression.

Thinking about having a little tagalong trailing behind her, she suddenly felt as if it might not be too bad.

“Meow!” (You should hurry and contract a second Pet Beast!)

Ziyun patted Xu Ran’s shoulder with her paw, urging him.

“It’s not that fast!” Xu Ran was amused by Ziyun’s sudden change of mind, “My contract power must advance from the first stage to the second stage before I can contract a second Pet Beast, and you need to break through to the elite stage.”

Training in contract power requires the Beast Master to meditate.

He had been trying recently, but he felt that the effect of meditation was just average; upgrading to the second stage would not happen that quickly.

Ziyun nodded thoughtfully, sensing that urging the Beast Master to focus on meditation training needs to be put on the agenda.

“Don’t just consider its large and imposing size, boss. Large pet beasts need to eat more and their costs will accordingly increase. And not to mention, housing for them is not easy to resolve.” Yan Fan smirked from behind Xu Ran.

“Are you dumb? The boss runs a foster shop. Such problems are nothing to him.” Liu Xue shook her head in exasperation.

“That seems right.” Yan Fan scratched his head, feeling it made sense.

“There are pros and cons to having a larger pet beast.” Zhang Yun chuckled, “I think there should still be some way before you reach the second stage, boss. You can learn more about it first, no need to rush to choose your second pet beast.” freeweb novel.co m

“I will.” Xu Ran nodded.

He knew he shouldn’t rush such matters. A pet beast is a lifelong partner, and often, it’s up to fate.

After speaking with Xu Ran, Zhang Yun turned his attention to Du Heng, who was sitting in the leading seat. “Old Du, did you find out about the situation with the second pet beast when you went back yesterday?”

“I haven’t found a suitable second pet beast yet. I heard that there will be a batch of new pet beasts available for contract in a while, so we can keep an eye out then.” Du Heng replied calmly, then shook his head reluctantly. “Plus, I ran into some issues on my side, so it’s not a good time to contract a second pet beast.”

“Did your sister start making a fuss over the housing issue of the Armored Rhinoceros again?” Zhang Yun glanced at Du Heng’s twitching mouth corner, and patted his shoulder. “If nothing else works, consider fostering the Armored Rhinoceros.”

“Alas, you can’t blame Little Juan. You can’t delay when it comes to kid’s matters.” Upon hearing their conversation, Liu Xue sighed and interjected.

Liu Gu and Yan Fan also joined the conversation, and their chatter quickly enlightened the silently ‘eating melon seeds’ Xu Ran about the whole situation.

For the Armored Rhinoceros, Du Heng’s wife, Pang Juan, and their son Du Qi, did not resist, also treating it as a family member.

They remodeled the largest living room in their house to accommodate the Armored Rhinoceros, and the three family members shared two bedrooms.

But now this family is facing a new problem.

Pang Juan is pregnant again, her belly is growing day by day, but there’s no place in the house to accommodate the newborn.

Du Heng currently saved enough money to either move his family to a larger house or buy a high-quality pet beast for a second pet.

But he just can’t have it both ways.

In this case, Zhang Yun’s suggestion seems to be the best solution.

He could temporarily foster the Armored Rhinoceros, have a place for the newborn, and enough money to purchase the second pet beast.

After earning enough money to upgrade to a larger house in the future, it won’t be late to take the Armored Rhinoceros back.

“I’m still considering.” Du Heng spoke slowly, “We have fought with the Armored Rhinoceros for more than ten years, even if I want to foster it, I need a reliable foster shop.”

“Huh? Isn’t the boss running a foster shop?” Yan Fan turned the topic to Xu Ran, who was ‘eating melon seeds’.

“The boss’s shop does not currently offer foster care services, only washing and protection services.” Liu Gu shook his head, promptly rejecting Yan Fan’s suggestion.

“Well…” Xu Ran felt he needed to speak now, or else he would lose this easy business opportunity. “Actually, the shop will soon offer foster services.” “Huh?” The members of the Tiger Hunting Squad all looked over at once.

“If you haven’t found a satisfactory foster shop by then, you can come and take a look at our shop.” Xu Ran smiled.

Although he does not know what the fostering module offered by the system looks like yet.

But he is confident in the system’s products.

“I’ll take a look when the time comes.” Du Heng nodded slightly, then changed the topic, “Boss Xu, is this where you gather your resources?”

During their conversation, the Armored Rhinoceros had arrived near a cluster of bushes.

Seeing the fruits in the bushes reflecting a pleasant green glow under the sun, Xu Ran’s eyes brightened.

“Yes, this is the place!”
