“You’re talking about pet battles, huh? Even this pet of epic quality has such poor attributes.” the Guardian Angel remarked.
“Yes, exactly. Battling pets can enhance their levels and attributes. But the benefits they offer to their owners are innate and unchangeable. Of course, there will be missions later on that will allow you to change these attributes, but it’s not something we can access right now.” Li Yao explained.
“It sounds really fun!” Daimeng Tonton and Da Vinci’s eyes lit up.
“Indeed, there are a lot of species from ancient gods, most of them have pets. Training your pets and having them compete with others is a great leisure activity.”
Li Yao didn’t go into detail. In fact, once pets became popular in his previous life, there were even pet combat competitions organized by the ancient gods.
And they were very popular, incredibly so. With the increasing number of players, many places were bustling at night with players nurturing their pets. A good pet wasn’t any cheaper than high-quality equipment.
Some rare pets, like small dragon pets, some precious mechanical pets that couldn’t be manufactured, and rare elemental pets, and many more could all fetch high prices.
“If this turtle can increase swimming speed by 15%, wouldn’t we become swimming champions if we had a bunch of turtles?” The Guardian Angel whimsically suggested.
“Do you really think others haven’t thought of that?” Li Yao replied,”Only one pet of the same species, regardless of its quality, can affect its owner at a time. However, if you manage to collect more sea pets that boost swimming, it would be quite an achievement.”
“So, isn’t stacking pet attributes wicked?” The Guardian Angel started to entertain the idea.
“Good luck, brother.” Li Yao didn’t explain further. Are rare pets that easy to get?
Pets are actually similar to equipment. What usually drops are common combat pets, and occasionally elite silver monsters will drop green quality pets.
Killing bosses, if they drop pets, they are typically of blue quality.
And for the purple pet, it only drops in two scenarios. The first is when it’s the first kill of a special monster. For example, Li Yao’s pet isn’t just an ordinary turtle and because it was the first kill during initial development, a pet of purple quality was dropped.
The second scenario is through getting a promotion stone which can boost the pet’s quality.
Later when it becomes a shadow copy, the turtle will at best drop a pet of blue quality and the chances aren’t even high.
“You’re really dreaming, Lecherous Uncle. Do you know how much this little pig of mine costs?” Daimeng Tonton sighed.
“How much could it be? It’s just a ornamental pet, at most one silver coin.”
“Fine, you sell it to me for one silver coin then. No matter how many you have, I’ll take them.” Daimeng Tonton contemptuously said, “My pet costs 50 silver coins, hmm.”
“Oh god, you wastrel, I want to farm pets too.” The Guardian Angel’s eyes glowed green. “You must be opening up new instances, right? Once you’ve developed it, I also want to get purple ones to sell for cash.”
“You’re dreaming. Blue ones might not even drop for you. Next item.” Li Yao placed the little turtle on the ground to let it fend for itself and began on the next item.

“This equipment, it’s amazing.” even sister Li couldn’t help but comment.
“It can save a life in a crucial moment, especially effective against a Rogue’s throat slash.” Da Vinci expressed his admiration.
“Such a waste having this beast use it. Have any of you ever seen his life threatened by a rogue?” The Guardian Angel criticised.
“…” Li Yao put the equipment into his backpack, the functionality of this gear wasn’t just effective against the throat slash.
This description signifies that it is a semi-invincible skill, similar to deterrence, unless encountering an outrageously powerful enemy, no one can break the invincible skill.
Although the shoulder gear can only defend one strike, if used at a crucial moment, it definitely could play a significant role.
“Is there anything else?” The Fruit Knight urged.
“There should be one more item.” Li Yao went to pick up again.

“My god, am I seeing things? Super high armor stat, plus 15% damage reduction. Isn’t this crazy?” Daimeng Tonton became noticeably excited. Combined with the shield’s damage reduction, and some damage reduction from other parts, the total damage reduction would be terrifying.
“It’s too ugly!” The Guardian Angel shook his head.
Li Yao shrugged, saying, “For a top of the line purple equipment, you two can decide among yourselves.”
The Fruit Knight said, “I don’t mind it being ugly.”
“I…” The Guardian Angel also wanted it, but upon seeing Fruit Knight’s gaze, she fell silent.
“A lecherous uncle who’s afraid of his wife.” Daimeng Tonton muttered.
“Our team’s boss was stolen, and we were wiped out. Shadow Dance is asking us to support.” Sister Li suddenly reported.
“Damn, Prosperous Era’s sons of bitches. We already have guild members leaving, saying it’s too dangerous and they would lose levels, we’re going to go fight those bastards now.” The Guardian Angel instantly lost it.
“Right, you guys go support. Wait for me to return. Since they want to play, we’ll give them a good time.” Li Yao was also angry, these people just wouldn’t let up, “As for those quitting, it doesn’t matter, Starfire doesn’t need selfish players only looking out for their own benefits, it’s better for them to leave sooner. And add them to the blacklist, we won’t recruit them again.”
“Alright, I’ll arrange for it. You guys come back as soon as possible so we can discuss.” Sister Li said.
“I’m already using the Hearthstone.” The Guardian Angel said angrily.
Li Yao closed the elder channel, taking a deep breath. There were still two bosses left. Regardless of whether the mystery of the Mysterious Eye could be unlocked, he had to rush back.
Originally, Li Yao thought that the three major guilds would calm down, but he didn’t expect them to provoke Starfire continuously. If they didn’t retaliate powerfully and trample them into a pitiful state, they would really think that he was easy to bully.
Li Yao took out another four gold coins from the turtle shell, frowning. There were still two bosses, and it seemed like he would have to go into the water again.
Li Yao was not in a hurry to leave, but instead, summoned the Reaper 4000 to continue collecting silver skeleton badges in the water. Only when he had accumulated 100 of them did Li Yao dive back into the water, using his memory from his previous life to search for that cave.
This time, Li Yao managed to find the exit readily, and it was safe according to the Sonar Arrow, so he confidently passed through the waterway to an ancient passageway, with a shallow stream flowing below his feet.
Li Yao only saw the monsters in this place after following the stream and turning a corner…
