5: Light of Chenyang
Compared to taking a bus, the Qingyuan Breeding Center's truck was much faster.
Within half an hour, he and the beasts he purchased were delivered to Chenyang Pet Store.
He declined the delivery driver's offer to bring the beasts inside the store, instead having them place the beasts at the entrance before they left.
Luo Chen skillfully took out his key to open the pet store's door, then carried the beasts into the store one by one.
Only after each beast was settled in its own cage could Luo Chen finally catch his breath.
Xiao Maoqiu used its fluffy little paws to step on his shoulder, trying to relax him, but its strength was too small, only having a psychological effect.
However, Luo Chen still appreciated it, reaching out his palm to pat Xiao Maoqiu's head, praising, “Mao Qiu’s massage is really great.”
Xiao Maoqiu, delighted by Luo Chen's praise, moved its paws even more cheerfully, making Luo Chen burst into hearty laughter.
After resting for a while, Luo Chen got up to continue his unfinished business; he was going to start breeding the beasts he had bought.
In fact, on the very street where Chenyang Pet Store was located, there were five stores selling beasts. For Chenyang Pet Store to stand out in such fierce competition,
First, the quality of the beasts was the most attractive point for customers, but it was quite difficult for ordinary Beast Masters to distinguish the quality of a beast in a short time.
Therefore, a beast store with a Breeder in charge and one without would definitely receive two different treatments.
Because Breeders could easily check the State and quality of a beast, many customers would come to buy beasts because of the Breeder's reputation.
It was precisely because Luo Chen's father, Luo Yuheng, was a Star Breeder that Chenyang Pet Store held an unshakeable position, even on this fiercely competitive street.
However, with the disappearance of Luo Yuheng and his wife, Chenyang Pet Store's market share was quickly divided among the other four stores.
Now, if Luo Chen wanted to reclaim the market share from the other four stores, he first had to successfully obtain a Breeder qualification certificate.
But that alone wasn't enough; the other four stores also had Apprentice Breeders, so there was no competitive advantage unless he could directly become a Stellar Beast Master, capable of firmly suppressing the Breeders of other stores.
Otherwise, he could only make the beasts in his store unique, which would allow him to reclaim market share.
Luo Chen thought a lot. He would take the Breeder qualification exam the day after tomorrow. The Apprentice stage wasn't difficult, and Luo Chen was confident he could pass.
He focused on the beasts that were observing their new environment, and then it was time to breed these beasts.
Luo Chen first took out the three Fragrant Rabbits from their cages, then placed them on his arm and leisurely walked to the second floor.
Arriving at the Transformation Pool, he gently placed the three trembling little rabbits into the pool.
Xiao Maoqiu, who was following behind Luo Chen, seeing this scene, also scampered into the pool by itself and comfortably soaked in the bath.
Compared to Xiao Maoqiu, who was barging around like the master of the house, the three rabbits were much quieter. They huddled together, as if that would give them some sense of security.
No matter how frightened they were, the benefits they received were real. Specks of flowing light entered their bodies in the pool, and the fragrant scent in the air grew stronger.
As soon as fifteen minutes were up, Luo Chen prepared towels and fished the three Fragrant Rabbits out of the Transformation Pool.
While wiping their bodies, he simultaneously used the Eye of Truth to observe the changes in their information.
“race: Fragrant Rabbit
Rank: Fierce Beast Two-star
Type: Healing Type
State: Frightened
Aptitude: Excellent
Skill: 1. Fragrance (Yellow-grade): The Fragrant Rabbit always emits a special scent that has the effect of calming the mind and soothing emotions.”
The States of the three Fragrant Rabbits were similar. After this simple bath, their star Rank increased from Fierce Beast One-star to Two-star.
This was absolutely unimaginable in other stores. However, most Fragrant Rabbits sold on the market were around Fierce Beast Two-star to Fierce Beast Three-star.
In terms of price, Fierce Beast Two-star usually sold for around 15,000 spirit coins, while Fierce Beast Three-star could sell for 20,000 spirit coins.
As for higher star Rank Fragrant Rabbits, they were generally unavailable unless a customer specifically customized them, because the breeding value was not equivalent, which could lead the store into a losing business.
Fragrant Rabbits for sale would naturally not be of too high a Rank. However, according to Luo Chen's estimation, if they frequently soaked in this Transformation Pool, these three Fragrant Rabbits would soon reach around Fierce Beast Four-star.
He hoped that this would be a selling point to attract some customers.
Luo Chen put the three Fragrant Rabbits back into their specially prepared cages, then prepared their respective food for the Fragrant Rabbits, Radiant Hounds, and Lightning Rats.
After eating the food mixed with calming agents, the few anxious small beasts quietly fell asleep in their cages. After this night of buffering, their emotions would surely stabilize by tomorrow.
Then Luo Chen went out, had a simple meal at a restaurant on the street, and then went to the supermarket to buy bedding.
Yes, that's right, he planned to stay at Chenyang Pet Store tonight. After all, the pets in the store accounted for half of his current assets, so he couldn't afford to be careless.
After spreading the bought bedding on the second floor, Luo Chen took out his personal terminal, preparing to browse information about the breeding of Radiant Hounds and Lightning Rats.
However, he noticed a red message in his message bar from a nickname called Chenyangs Light.
Chenyangs Light: Bro, day after tomorrow is a holiday.
The message was sent at 3:30 PM.
The message was concise, but it left Luo Chen stunned for a long time.
He smiled helplessly, truly unprepared to meet the relatives of this world.
Chenyangs Light, who was his current body's younger brother, was named Luo Yang. He was two years younger than Luo Chen, currently sixteen years old.
He was currently studying at Qingyang First Middle School, a hardworking second-year high school student.
Chenyang Pet Store was named after the two brothers.
Luo Chen thought for a moment, wondering if not replying would seem abnormal, so he replied with a message in Luo Chen's original tone.
Luo Chen: Okay, I'll prepare delicious food for you.
Plus a big smiley face.
Soon, a message was sent back from the other side.
Chenyangs Light: Bro, your old illness hasn't acted up recently, has it?
Luo Chen's heart warmed slightly, and he replied: No, it's been normal.
Chenyangs Light: That's good. Stay home these few days and don't go out easily.
When this sentence was sent, Luo Yang sounded more like Luo Chen's older brother.
Luo Chen: Okay, Yangzaizai.
Chenyangs Light: ...
Luo Chen's lips curved into a smile, and he didn't reply to Luo Yang's message again.
He put down his personal terminal and thought distractedly, did this really count as transmigration?
Luo Chen hadn't suddenly transmigrated to this world; he had appeared in Luo Chen's mind since he was in the womb.
However, perhaps because the souls of the two worlds hadn't merged well, Luo Chen had suffered from a strange illness called 'Soul Separation Syndrome' since childhood.
Outwardly, young Luo Chen was always dull, but sometimes he was very smart and knew everything.
However, this situation occurred equally often, so Luo Chen rarely went to school from a young age. Most of the time, he followed his parents, running around seeking famous doctors. Various Beast Master masters had seen him, but all were helpless.
Later, as he grew older, the occurrences of Soul Separation Syndrome became increasingly rare, and the transmigrated Luo Chen had always observed the growth of this world's Luo Chen from an outsider's perspective.
Originally, when he was young, Luo Chen's intelligence was due to his transmigrator consciousness dominating Luo Chen's body. However, when he realized that another weak consciousness was growing in his mind, he rarely did so anymore.
Because, having received a good education, he didn't want to be a 'murderer,' even if it was just killing the consciousness of a newborn.
Sometimes he even regarded this world's Luo Chen as his own son, but who knew that with the passage of time, his consciousness and the native Luo Chen's consciousness eventually began to merge and interact.
Their consciousnesses became more and more intertwined, and during the fusion process, the Soul Separation Syndrome became even more pronounced.
It wasn't until half a month ago that their two consciousnesses truly merged successfully.
So, strictly speaking, he couldn't be called a transmigrator, could he?
He also regarded the family in this world as his true family.
