[Next stage mission—Sell 10 beasts.]
Lin Ye, who was stroking the panda, heard the notification and threw it to the back of his mind.
In any case, the newbie mission had already been completed. The system did not specify a time in which he needed to complete it. He would lie and rest for a while first.
After the “Great Depression” of the previous month, Lin Ye no longer cared about missions.
The mission requirement this time was to sell ten beasts.
Lin Ye felt that it was already not bad for him to complete it in a year.
Even so, he still needed to encounter a customer who did not care about money every month.
Otherwise, it would only take him longer to complete the mission.
Shaking his head, Lin Ye placed his gaze on the panda, who was sitting on his chest again.
“Blackie, can you eat bamboo?”
“Mm ~ mm ~”
“Speak human language. Don’t just say ‘mm’. Or do you want to drink milk?”
“Mm ~”
“Why don’t you just eat leftovers? Logically speaking, a top-grade golden-quality panda like you should have an iron stomach.”
“…”
Looking at Blackie, who had suddenly gone silent, Lin Ye was stunned.
Did this little guy really understand him?
After thinking for a moment, Lin Ye still took out his old-fashioned communicator and began to buy something for Blackie on a website similar to Taobao
Lin Ye directly searched for bamboo.
He discovered that many related goods had actually popped out.
“The Wind Bamboo produced in a level three beast gathering place costs 1… 100 credits per stalk?!”
“Are you robbing me?!”
As he continued to read, Lin Ye realized something.
“The specialty of the Jiangzhou colony, the Velvet Bamboo, costs 500 credits each. It can be used to make protective equipment and weapons.”
“The Northern Frost Bamboo contains the power of extreme ice. It’s a necessary material for ice-type mutants. 1,500 credits per piece.”
Lin Ye decisively exited the bamboo page.
Why bother with bamboo!
It was better to see the price of crystal cores.
Then, he searched for mutated beast cores he had never seen before.
“Metal attribute level one beast core. Price: 1,000 credits.”
Sorry to disturb!
Why bother with crystal cores!
It was better to eat bamboo.
After rubbing the back of Blackie’s neck, Lin Ye placed an order for 100… ahem, 10 Wind Bamboos that were each worth 100 credits.
Although he had a “big sum” of 500,000 credits, he still had to spend it sparingly, right?
“During this period of time, you can eat the panda food given by the system first, alright?”
Blackie, who was lying on Lin Ye’s chest, nodded.
This made Lin Ye very happy.
Rubbing Blackie’s furry head, Lin Ye said, “I’ll give you a good life when I earn a lot of money in the future. When you grow up, I’ll see if I can find you a female panda.”
At this point, Lin Ye looked curiously at the little guy’s crotch.
Unfortunately… it was still hard to distinguish if Blackie, who was still in its cub stage, was male or female.
“I’ll treat you as a man for the time being.”

After Su Qingqing drove the car back to her villa, she carried the husky cub out of the front passenger seat.
Looking at the red fur between the cub’s eyebrows and recalling its ability to spit flames, Su Qingqing stroked its head and said, “I’ll call you Little Flame from now on ~”
“How’s that?”
“Woof!”
“Very good, it’s decided then!”
After the woman and the dog reached an agreement, Su Qingqing carried the cub into her villa.
Because she had just gotten a new dog, Su Qingqing could not wait to start teasing “Little Flame” in the living room of the villa.
The dog was also very polite and played around in the villa with Su Qingqing, who was alone.
It was not until night fell that this energetic dog that did not look like a puppy quietened down.
“Hu ~
Looking at Little Flame lying beside the sofa, Su Qingqing heaved a sigh of relief.
“Little Flame, why are you so energetic?”
“Woof woof woof ~”
Looking at the dog barking at her from the sofa, Su Qingqing slapped her head.
“Are you hungry? I’ll find something for you to eat immediately.”
With that said, Su Qingqing took out the box of “dog food” she had obtained from the shop owner during the day.
Just as she was about to open this “dog food” for Little Flame to try, Su Qingqing suddenly remembered what the shop owner had said during the day.
“You can feed it crystal cores that are meant for mutated beasts.”
Thinking of how her father had given her a level-three mutated beast core as a birthday gift last time, Su Qingqing immediately put down the “dog food” box and ran to her bedroom.
When she came down again, she was already holding a diamond-shaped crystal the size of a ping pong ball in her hand.
When it saw the thing in Su Qingqing’s hand, Little Flame, who had been “ruined” just now, immediately stood up from the sofa.
It howled at Su Qingqing.
“Be good, don’t be anxious. I’ll give it to you immediately ~”
After comforting Little Flame, Su Qingqing directly handed the crystal core in her hand to Little Flame’s mouth.
“This… is how you feed it, right?”
Before Su Qingqing could consider anything, Little Flame roared and bit the crystal core.
Looking at Little Flame that chewed the crystal core into pieces in a few bites, Su Qingqing was about to stroke its head to praise it.
In the end, she saw the dog that was only as long as her forearm suddenly grow bigger.
Moreover, flames began to emit from its entire body.
In the beginning, it was only between its eyebrows. Now, it had slowly spread to its entire body.
Seeing this scene, Su Qingqing was almost scared silly.
Just as she took out her communicator and was about to call the shop owner to ask, she suddenly realized that there was no signal.
In the next second, the lights in the entire villa were also extinguished.
The living room instantly became incomparably dark.
Little Flame that was covered in flames instantly became the only light source in the pitch-black house.
Then, Su Qingqing heard footsteps coming from outside the villa.
“Bang!”
Before she could react, the door of the villa was violently broken open.
Five masked men in black walked in with short knives.
Looking at the angry dog on the sofa, one of them was stunned.
“What’s that?”
The leader of the men in black shook his head.
“Don’t worry about it. We just need to take her away.”
Looking at the few men in black walking towards her, Su Qingqing trembled and wanted to stand up.
“Little girl, I advise you not to move. Otherwise, it won’t be good if you get injured.”
Looking at the approaching man in black, Su Qingqing mustered her courage and hugged Little Flame, who was still “angry” with its eyes closed.
The burning sensation she imagined did not come. Instead, it was quite warm.
It was as if she was hugging a stove that was warming her hands.
After learning that she would not be burned by Little Flame, Su Qingqing strode forward and prepared to run upstairs.
However, before she could run to the staircase, she saw two more men in black walk down from the second floor.
Su Qingqing, who was surrounded from both sides, immediately had no way out.
The few men in black seemed to enjoy the feeling of surrounding her.
The leader looked at the pale Su Qingqing and smiled.
“Don’t worry, we’re only asking you to follow us. We won’t hurt you.”
“You…”
Su Qingqing was about to speak when she suddenly heard Little Flame in her arms let out a cry.
She had heard this sound in that pet shop in the afternoon.
Therefore, Su Qingqing directly placed her hands on Little Flame’s body and aimed it at the two men in black blocking the stairs.
When the two of them saw that Su Qingqing was actually using a dog to block, they could not help but shake their heads and laugh.
“Little girl, are you trying to scare me with this fiery dog?”
“Hahahaha… Ah!”
The man in black’s laughter stopped.
This was because a fireball quickly smashed into his chest.
Moreover, it began to quickly spread throughout his body.
This sudden change caught the men in black off guard.
The leader, who had returned to his senses, immediately roared,
“Scatter and surround her! There’s something strange about that girl!”
“Damn, didn’t they say that the target doesn’t have any abilities!”
The few people behind him did not know that the fire was spat out from the dog’s mouth.
They even thought that it was Su Qingqing’s ability.
Only the man in black at the stairs was left to witness this.
Just as he was about to remind the others, he saw another fireball fly towards him.
The man in black could not be bothered to speak and immediately retreated.
At this moment, Little Flame in Su Qingqing’s arms no longer had the “intelligent” aura from before. Instead, it had an inexplicable dignity.
Although its body was still small, its gaze was abnormally fierce.
After the men in black escaped up the stairs, she saw Little Flame open its mouth for the third time. Su Qingqing immediately hugged it and turned around.
Bang ~
Coincidentally, she hit a man in black facing her.
However, the other four people were also less than five meters away from Su Qingqing.
Just as she was at a loss, she saw Little Flame in her arms open his mouth and take a deep breath—
“Howl ~”
In the next second, the four men in black who had already rushed in front of Su Qingqing, as well as the person who was waiting for an opportunity in the corridor behind her, all covered their heads and began to scream.
“Ah ~”
“W-what the hell is this?!”
Seeing that the men in black were all covering their heads and shouting, Su Qingqing hugged Little Flame and aimed at the remaining five men in black in the living room and on the stairs.
After the five fireballs landed, even more heart-wrenching screams immediately sounded in the entire villa.
Looking at the two men in black who were the first to be burned, they had already stopped moving. Only the flames on their bodies were still burning.
Su Qingqing’s face was abnormally pale.
“I… I killed someone?”
“Woof woof woof!”
Perhaps sensing Su Qingqing’s emotions, Little Flame in her arms raised its dog head and called out to her a few times.
However, after “comforting” Su Qingqing twice, Little Flame’s mouth fell open again.
“Howl ~”
Bang!
Another fireball was spat out.
However, this time, there was no target like the man in black.
The fireball directly hit the sofa.
At this moment, Su Qingqing couldn’t care less about being afraid because she discovered that Little Flame… seemed to be unable to stop!
Bang!
Bang! Bang!
Looking at the fireballs flying around the house, Su Qingqing panicked.
She hurriedly ran out of the villa with Little Flame.
As for the seven men in black, they were silent.
Su Qingqing, who had run out of the villa, was not attacked again.
There was also a signal on the communicator.
Seeing this, she immediately called the pet shop owner from the day.
“Shop Owner! I… I can’t stop my dog!”
On the other end of the phone, Lin Ye, who was hugging a stalk of bamboo, blinked.
“What do you mean?”
