354: What is my pet?

Chapter 354: What is My Pet?

“Huh?”

Lu Ran was a bit bewildered.

And most importantly,

Pets were useless to Lu Ran.

He could directly plunder the control of Dark-element creatures; pets were everywhere!

Coupled with the abilities of the entries,

Anything killed by Lu Ran could be converted into a pet.

So, to be honest, this thing held no appeal for Lu Ran.

However...

“Pets aren't caught, so how do they appear? And why is everyone's pet different?” Lu Ran asked curiously.

“After the Global update, a Pet Temple was added to the Central Square. Everything related to pets is inside, and everyone can go to the Pet Temple to awaken their own pet,” Liu Xinxin explained.

This was the reason.

Because everyone couldn't decide their own pet.

Whatever pet was awakened, that's what it was.

“Pets cannot be changed, and if they die, they can be revived. This is somewhat similar to an Onmyoji's Shikigami. Also, pets have their own growth methods,” Liu Xinxin said.

And,

Currently, it seemed that

The strength, type, and rarity of each awakened pet were all random.

However, whether it was powerful or rare seemed to be related to the rarity of one's profession.

“Regular professions cannot be statistically analyzed, but most are very ordinary.”

“Rare and hidden professions awaken better pets.”

“That's how it seems for now.”

“There isn't enough data yet to firmly establish this conclusion.”

“However, even though everyone's pets vary in quality, because they can grow and are connected to their owner's will,”

“Everyone still quite likes them.”

“Of course, it's not to say that some people don't find their awakened pets a bit trashy.”

“But there's no way to change the outcome.”

...

Liu Xinxin said to Lu Ran.

It had to be Liu Xinxin.

In such a short time,

Liu Xinxin had already quickly compiled some data to summarize the new pet system.

Of course,

The current data volume was still relatively small, so it couldn't serve as a definitive reference.

“You might not be very interested in these things, but if you're curious, you can go to the square to awaken your pet and see what it is,” Liu Xinxin said to Lu Ran.

She naturally knew that Lu Ran didn't care about pets.

After all,

The Dark Elf Queen BOSS was Lu Ran's pet!

The Yamata no Orochi was the same!

As long as Lu Ran wished, any BOSS or monster he fancied could become Lu Ran's pet.

The so-called single pet slot for everyone had no restrictions for Lu Ran.

The difference was,

Only the pet awakened in that unique pet slot was recognized by the rules of the Datafication World.

“Alright, since there's nothing to do right now, I can go take a look. Oh, Sister Xin, are there any other fun things that have been updated?” Lu Ran asked curiously.

As for pets,

Although Lu Ran genuinely didn't care,

He was genuinely curious.

Of course,

Lu Ran didn't hold too much hope.

His abilities were powerful, but they all stemmed from his entry abilities.

As for his own profession, Undead Mage, it wasn't particularly outstanding; it was just a regular profession.

So,

Most likely, he would awaken an ordinary creature.

Of course, the treatment would be different.

After all, this was a pet bestowed upon Lu Ran by the pet system.

Lu Ran had already made up his mind that no matter what it was, he would carefully nurture it and help it grow.

“There are also World BOSSes, new dungeons, new team dungeons, Endless Tower floors, and so on. There's quite a lot; you'll find out slowly,” Liu Xinxin said.

The others didn't matter.

But the World BOSS made Lu Ran's eyes light up.

“World BOSSes that can be fought globally? What are the rules? Where are they?” Lu Ran asked.

“I don't know the specifics, only that the announcement said they were updated, but since they haven't appeared yet, no one knows how to fight them or what the rules are. But it's certain that Global professionals can participate,” Liu Xinxin said, shaking her head.

She didn't know the specific rules either.

But it was foreseeable that,

“You'll charge up your Blood Spear. When the World BOSS appears, no matter where it's fought, no one will be able to snatch it from you. You can completely take it down directly, and even... in the future, basically all World BOSSes will belong to you,” Liu Xinxin said with a strange expression.

Although she could understand Lu Ran's ability,

Saying it out loud,

Still felt very strange.

“Let's go to the square and see what your pet is,” Liu Xinxin said.

After a quick bite, Lu Ran was a bit impatient.

It was still the same point.

Although Lu Ran had no particular desire for the pet system,

As the only legitimate pet recognized by the Datafication World, Lu Ran was still very curious.

As for whether it was good or bad, Lu Ran didn't care.

It could grow anyway.

As long as it could grow, Lu Ran could easily acquire various resources and let it grow infinitely!

At this moment, the Central Square was

Crowded.

Lu Ran looked from a distance.

Indeed,

The Central Square, which had been somewhat empty, had now changed.

The original dungeon hall seemed a bit deserted instead.

Because although new dungeons had been updated,

Those were dungeons for Level 60 and above, and there were very few professionals who could fight them.

As for the new team dungeons, those were for Level 70!

No one could possibly fight them yet.

But...

The newly appeared building, the Pet Temple, was bustling with activity!

At the entrance of the Pet Temple,

A huge sculpture could be seen.

It looked like it was carved from an unknown gem.

Emitting a sacred glow.

“You just need to touch that sculpture, and your pet will awaken directly. No special operations are needed; it's very simple,” Liu Xinxin explained.

Indeed,

The area around the sculpture was currently packed with people.

From time to time, someone would leave the sculpture's side.

And by their side would be their respective pets.

There was all sorts of stuff.

Lu Ran's gaze swept over, and it was a complete mess.

He even saw a Level 1 novice monster, Pi Pi Pig!

“Although it can grow, getting a Pi Pi Pig is still a bit undesirable,” Lu Ran muttered.

At the same time,

Besides Pi Pi Pig,

There were many other pets of various levels.

Many of them came from former wild monsters, and so on.

Of course,

Some people also awakened special pets.

Like a Queen Bee.

It was quite powerful in itself, but most importantly, it was sexy and beautiful!

The surroundings were chaotic.

“Damn it, my pet is a Swamp Slime, it's so disgusting!”

“Haha... my pet is a Snow Leopard, I can ride it! Awesome!”

“My pet is a bit trashy.”

“Wait, whose pet is that? It can fly?”

“Damn, I had high hopes, but it doesn't matter, my pet, I'll pamper it!”

...

For a moment, all sorts of comments were heard.

Simply put, the chance of awakening a pet that matched one's first impression was very small.

One needed to adapt, or be forced to accept.

Lu Ran took a deep breath and walked forward.

He muttered, “Let me see what my pet is.”
