Chapter 37 Beast Taming House
Chapter 37 The Beast Taming Family (Seeking Recommendations and Monthly Tickets)
Leaving the villa area.
Lu Yu's original plan was to finish carving the secret ritual and then go back to rest, preparing to face the nightmare that could come at any time.
But unexpectedly, a pure-blooded succubus named Lilith replenished his mana, and now he feels like he's walked out of a urology clinic, full of energy.
"Eek?"
Are you training at home?
Spider-Man, the King of Rolls, has submitted an application to work overtime.
"..."
Lu Yu recalled the day he felt listless and the fear of being drained dry by the little spider, and he was still shaken.
Wouldn't going back mean wasting another whole day?
But I don't have the money to buy a potion to replenish my spirit...
But he couldn't bring himself to say it, so Lu Yu said in a serious tone, "Since we're already out here, we can't just dream about going home all the time. Life isn't just about the present hardships; there's also poetry and distant places. Go see the scenery outside, take on some quests to earn some extra money, and unlock your Void Mother Nest skill!"
"Eek..." The little spider nodded, looking a little disappointed. Leveling up your skills can be addictive.
However, he still raised his hand with great enthusiasm, indicating that he wanted to earn money to support his family!
"Good girl."
This adorable expression made Lu Yu feel quite guilty.
Why does it feel like being a human is nothing compared to being a pet?
Hurrah, I'm not human anymore...
Just kidding, as long as you behave properly, you still have to live your life!
The most important thing is to make money. Since there are also tasks to complete for exchanging for gold medals, I might as well complete them at the same time.
The first step to making money was taking out my phone.
The second step is to open the pink... I mean, open an app called "Beast Tamer's Home".
Because Dayuan City is located on the border, the Alliance and the Beastmaster Association are both located in the Starry Sky Beast Tower, in the same office building, and their systems are also connected.
When Lu Yu registered to use the Gold Medal, he automatically became a Bronze-rank Beast Tamer of the Beast Tamer Association, with the ID [Twilight Raven].
Previously, accepting tasks required going to a special counter to complete the procedures, which was cumbersome. However, with the development of modern technology and the upgrading of information and communication technology, coupled with the initiative of the Alliance President to simplify the process.
The "Fingertip Beast Taming Center," built with the public at its center and based on credit, aims to serve the citizens and beast tamers of Dayuan City, covering government services, public services, and convenient services, striving to enable people to handle matters online without leaving home.
After facial verification, users can accept orders through the app. Although there are only silver and bronze tier tasks available, it is still a significant improvement and has already begun to be promoted throughout the entire alliance.
This is perfect for a lazy dog like Lu Yu who's too lazy to go through the formalities.
However, as a new Beast Tamer, after being assigned to Dayuan City, there are only one-star Bronze-rank missions on the panel. Only after completing enough missions will one be promoted, and there will also be a rating system.
【★Help the farmers, the crops are ruined: A group of earthworms have come to the fields in Xinye Village, west of the city, and are about to eat up our fertile black soil. Please remove them quickly. Reward: 15,000 yuan】
【★I'm craving soup: Please capture a bamboo shoot spirit from the Dark Bamboo Forest. I've heard it's delicious when used to make braised pork and bamboo shoot soup, and this has been my lifelong dream... Reward: 10,000】
【★The doctor is gone: One of the leech doctors at the Third Union Hospital in Bailu District died from sucking too much blood. Please help catch a leech to help the patient complete leech suction therapy. Reward: 20,000】
【★☆Hyenas are coming: There has been some unrest in the abandoned city recently. A large number of epileptic hyenas are attacking the edge of the city, endangering the safety of Emerald Community. Therefore, all the owners have joined together to raise money to recruit capable people.
Bounty Mission: Kill at least ten Bloodthirsty Hyenas inhabiting the area bordering the western part of the city and the abandoned urban area. The base reward is 40,000 yuan, with additional rewards based on the number of hyena teeth obtained from more than ten hyenas. A pair of Bloodthirsty Hyena teeth is worth 10,000 yuan. (Note: Bloodthirsty Hyenas appear in packs, with a danger level of 1.5 stars. It is recommended to go in a group of three or more, with a maximum of four. Three people have already signed up, leaving one spot available. Since Bloodthirsty Hyenas only appear after dusk, you must meet at 5:00 PM sharp.)
【…】
A series of bronze-themed quests, some officially released and some privately run, are available. As a result, there are bound to be some oddballs trying to take advantage of the situation, and you'll need to be able to distinguish them yourself.
For example, the one about catching bamboo shoot demons seems ordinary, but it's actually a trap. Bamboo shoot demons are mid-level servants with low racial potential. They are not strong and are not good at fighting. However, these plant-type pets are similar to ginseng spirits. They are very timid and will run away at the slightest sound. They can hide their presence in the bamboo forest or even shrink underground.
Difficult to catch and delicious, it's a true delicacy, making it a favorite among the upper class and commanding a high price. On the black market, it's already being sold for 50,000 each. This guy offered 10,000—what a rip-off!
The purpose of hanging it up is just to deceive those new beast tamers, making these laborers who have just entered society go through all the trouble to catch it, thinking that they are helping others. In reality, these scoundrels directly resell the bamboo shoot demon, making a net profit of 40,000, while cursing that it's so easy to make money like an idiot.
There are many similar cases, but the alliance only cracks down on life-threatening incidents; it does not completely prohibit these kinds of incidents, or rather, it cannot prohibit them all.
Lu Yu guessed that the alliance also wanted to let the new beast tamers gain social experience through setbacks and grow up quickly, without endangering their lives.
You might not remember if someone is kind to you, but if you pass by a barbecue stall at night and find out on your way home that the owner overcharged you by five dollars and didn't give you a piece of rice cake, you can remember that for a lifetime.
Mr. Lu was kind-hearted and couldn't stand the scalpers' shameless behavior.
So he reported it and saw that they were limiting traffic. Then he posted a task to find the bamboo shoot demon, directly copying the text from the scalpers, and changed the reward to 15,000.
The scalper was just ripping people off, but he made a contribution by honing his skills for the new generation of beast tamers.
The people's beast tamer.
Tears!
Besides that, he looked around and found that the rewards for the bronze-tier missions were not high.
The reward for the Blood Leech quest is decent, but the location is in the Vampire Swamp, which takes a whole day to get there and back. You also have to search through the swamp's mud and you might even get sucked blood yourself. It's all hard-earned money.
Moreover, he had tried leech therapy when he injured his eye before, and he had a psychological aversion to it, so he didn't want to see that thing.
The best mission is the Bloodthirsty Hyena Hunting Mission. If you encounter enough hyenas, you can easily earn tens of thousands of dollars.
However, there is only one spot left...
Lu Yu touched the non-existent stubble on his chin, feeling that his money-making efficiency was still too low.
You can earn 10,000 to 20,000 yuan by completing a task, but submitting a task requires review, and taking on new tasks also takes time. The whole process takes more than half an hour, and it gets dark before you can complete many tasks.
It would be better to kill a few more mad hyenas.
Lu Yu was pondering and was just about to accept the Hyena mission when he suddenly saw the certified gold medal label next to his avatar, which included two special privilege descriptions.
Specifically, the maximum number of tasks that can be accepted at the same time is 5, and the maximum number of tasks that can be accepted in a day is 20.
Lu Yu suddenly had a flash of inspiration:
"Got it!"
........................
Meanwhile, inside the Starry Sky Tower, Ms. Xu Xiaotao, on her first day of work, wearing gold-rimmed glasses and an office lady uniform, clocked in full of energy and then sat down with a large peach on her head.
After the morning's "pie in the sky" training, she had high hopes for the future, a stark contrast to her yawning colleagues next to her.
"From the moment I put on this uniform today, I've become a cog in the machine of society. From now on, apart from my physique, I won't be treated like a child anymore!"
Xiao Tao was secretly pleased, then turned on her computer to prepare for the orders she would receive that afternoon.
However, when she logged into the administrator backend, an ID named "Twilight Raven" immediately caught her attention in the list she was responsible for.
She glanced at it at first, then froze, and finally stared wide-eyed at it closely, her expression turning to horror:
"W-w-is there a bug in the system?"
Thanks to Youyi, Youwanren, Huohuo, and Zhongyu5 for their 100 Qidian coins, and thanks to Huanyueyue for her 500 Qidian coins.
