Chapter 13

“I see.” Lin Yu finally understood. That shield was a pet beast that had been transformed from an inanimate object.

“So, other than weapons, everything else can become pet beasts?”

“In theory, the answer is yes. Actually, this is my first time seeing this,” Zhang Yuze replied.

After getting his confirmation, Lin Yu’s imagination ran wild.

But this was not the time to think about this.

While the two of them were conversing, Gao Yang had already fought countless rounds with the girl.

“Crack, crack,” the Fierce Crying Vine’s whip madly smashed toward its opponent.

“Gold City Wall!” The girl also gave the order.

The engravings on the shield glowed with golden light, forming an ancient golden wall around it. It suddenly seemed to have become a wall that was difficult to break down.

The Fierce Crying Vine’s attacks were already accompanied by mournful cries, and a few gaseous dark purple skeletons were even conjured.

However, apart from causing golden ripples on the surface of his opponent, his swift and fierce attacks had no other gains.

Gao Yang’s expression also became somewhat ugly.

“Let me do it.” Lin Yu was eager to try.

Gao Yang moved to the side when he heard this.

Xiaozi floated up and pressed her fair palm on the golden wall. Then a dark airflow poured out.

As if it had found a vent, the cold air of death gradually seeped in, and in the blink of an eye, the wall was dyed black.

“It’s no use. No matter who it is…” The girl’s remaining sentence was stuck in her throat.

With a “crack” sound, a spider web-like crack appeared on the golden wall.

After a while, it suddenly collapsed.

The golden spiritual power that looked like broken walls scattered madly.

The girl’s eyes suddenly widened.

“How is it possible? How did you do it?”

She was well aware of the defense of the Gold Shield. It was almost impossible for a pet beast at stage four to break through.

She thought, “Wait a minute. The other party seemed to only be at stage three?”

“Bang!” Xiaozi gently pushed the Gold Shield, which had been eroded by the cold air, and easily sent it flying several meters away.

“Thanks for letting me win,” Lin Yu said.

The girl looked at the Gold Shield that was still trembling on the ground and smiled bitterly for a moment. Then she could only obediently hand over the Secluded Valley Stone.

The eyes of Zhang Yuze and Gao Yang lit up.

Lin Yu held the black crystal in his hand and carefully observed it.

One more opponent had been defeated by the Bone-penetrating Black Chill.

Lin Yu usually liked to attack by condensing a black palm, which was cool and domineering.

However, close-range penetration was the most powerful way of using this skill.

When the cold air of death seeped into the opponent’s body, it could directly corrode and disintegrate the opponent from the inside.

The dead Illusionary Spirit Paramita Flower was a good example.

And the unmoving Gold Shield just now was the best target.

Therefore, the instant kill just now was both strength and coincidence.

…

In the outside seating area.

The moment they saw Lin Yu summoning the Fallen Angel, all the teachers were stunned. They could not tell what kind of pet beast it was even with their knowledge.

Immediately, they took out their phones and opened the illustrated handbook.

“A new pet beast?”

“It was recently discovered. The discoverer is… Lin Yu!”

They all opened their mouths wide as if they could swallow a goose egg.

“This student from our school is the first owner of this new pet beast?”

“So far, no colonies have been discovered. Does this mean that Lin Yu has the only sample in his hands?”

All the teachers who had come to watch the battle suddenly straightened their backs and focused their attention on Lin Yu.

A brand-new pet beast was very attractive to those working on teaching knowledge.

The characteristics, skills, and even habits of the pet beast were all worth paying attention to.

There were even some who took out their notebooks.

The next moment, Lin Yu was facing the girl in sunglasses.

“That little girl is a descendant of a military family, right?”

“Yup, her Gold Shield sacrificed its attack power in exchange for a super strong defense. Lin Yu should not be able to break it easily.”

But after that, Lin Yu defeated her in seconds.

Xiaozi, who was at stage three of the origin birth realm, had defeated the pet beast that was known for its defense in the same realm with one move.

They all widened their eyes.

“How is that possible? How did she do it?”

“There must be something wrong with that skill …”

They all fell into deep thought.

…

Lin Yu did not know any of this.

He just placed the Secluded Valley Stone in front of Xiaozi.

Zhang Yuze and Gao Yang didn’t have any objections to Lin Yu taking the crystal. After all, it was Lin Yu who had defeated the other party.

Lin Yu directly stretched out his hand and activated his “Devour” talent.

A mist gushed out of his palm and enveloped the dark crystal.

Xiaozi opened her mouth slightly and absorbed the mist.

Zhang Yuze and Gao Yang didn’t ask much, only looking on curiously.

There were too many strange talents in the world. Besides those that could assist in combat, many could be used to train pet beasts.

Lin Yu watched as the crystal gradually faded and then disappeared.

He felt that the devouring process was much slower this time, and he also felt a trace of joy from Xiaozi during the process.

In theory, one could devour anything with this talent, but in reality, the feedback of the pet beast would be different depending on the target.

[Devouring complete. Life level increased.]

“Still no skills?” Lin Yu was slightly disappointed.

Fortunately, he was mentally prepared. After all, the chances of learning skills by devouring were not 100%.

At the very least, his cultivation of spiritual power had increased a little.

Lin Yu finally found an excuse to comfort himself.

“Let’s continue looking for resources. With the massive amount of resources in this place, if I can’t even conjure up a single skill, I might as well find a tree to hang myself.”

Lin Yu was looking forward to this activity. He didn’t believe that his luck would be so bad.

If that were the case, he might as well retire and stop being a transmigrator.

“Lin Yu, there’s a cave up ahead. Something good might be inside!” Zhang Yuze reported.

The Little Candle Spirit, who had been sent out to investigate, flew back and landed on his shoulder.

He used his finger to gently press down on the flame of the candle to show his praise.

“Let’s go and take a look!” Lin Yu felt that the goddess of luck was already watching him.

Of course, Zhang Yuze and Gao Yang had no objections. The three of them quickly advanced toward the cave.

As soon as they entered the cave, they were swallowed by darkness.

It was pitch black inside the cave. Even if they opened their eyes wide, they could only see a meter ahead.

Zhang Yuze walked in front while the Little Candle Spirit was in charge of lighting up the path.

Lin Yu and Xiaozi walked side by side in the middle, followed by Gao Yang, who was wrapped in the Fierce Crying Vines.

Lin Yu looked strangely at Gao Yang and was silent for a moment before saying, “Bro, you look quite cool…”

Gao Yang was tall and had a fierce expression on his face. At this moment, the vine whip was wrapped around his body like a rope. It was really…

Gao Yang revealed an awkward smile and said, “There’s no other way. The Fierce Crying Vine can’t fly like the Little Candle Spirit. If an enemy suddenly appears, it can respond immediately only in this way.”

Lin Yu forced a smile and said inwardly, “You’d better not jinx it…”
