The King of Beast Trainers

Chapter 66  Chapter 54 Primary Weapon_1

Gu Qingyi was quite surprised, after all, Lu Ran had only become a Beast Trainer for a week.

At this time, she was still worrying about her Pet Beast\'s food.

"Right!"

"Let\'s hear it."

"Okay, first off is about the \'Weapon Control Trait\'. A Beast that has absorbed this trait will have a natural talent when using weapons, akin to using their own limbs, right?"

Gu Qingyi nodded.

"Just now, Manager Ying said that, worldwide, no Beast Trainer has had a Pet Beast that has perfectly evolved with the \'Weapon Control Trait\' at its core."

"They all fail due to the lack of compatibility between the Pet Beast and this trait..."

"That\'s correct. If the fused trait matches the Pet Beast, the beast will awaken a Racial Talent, which significantly boosts its combat strength. But among the cases of Pet Beasts that have fused with the Weapon Control Trait, there haven\'t been any that awoke a Racial Talent." Manager Ying said.

"Including your brother who died abroad, his Pet Beast didn\'t awaken any talents after absorbing this trait."

Lu Ran nodded, his brother had lamented this in his diary.

"I think, one of the key points for fusing this trait is the Pet Beast\'s proficiency with the weapon it intends to use prior to the fusion."

"For instance, if a monkey is adept at using a staff before fusing the trait, its chances of awakening a Racial Talent upon fusion are much higher than if it knew nothing beforehand."

Doctor Gu said, "So you mean to say that your Husky is currently showing great talent in swordsmanship, and that gives you confidence in a perfect fusion?"

"That\'s one of the key points. My Beast Training Technique, after my refinement, can synchronize my swordsmanship experience to it, granting it double the experience in swordsmanship. So in that regard, it won\'t fall far behind."

"Its ability to grasp Sword Momentum is also because of this."

As Lu Ran explained, Mr. Husky staggering beside him, started making unfounded remarks, clearly, it was because of its own exceptional talent!

"You should know my master, Master Jiang Dou, one of the few in Xia Country who has comprehended Sword Momentum and is a great master of the Sword Dao. It\'s fair to say that even among humans, there are very few who can reach his level, but a Husky did it. This alone proves a lot."

Gu Qingyi and Manager Ying twitched at the corners of their mouths. If your master knew you were comparing him with a Husky, he\'d beat you to death.

"This premise has already given Mr. Husky an advantage over other Pet Beasts that are infused with the Weapon Control Trait, but that\'s not the most important point. I\'ve thought of another method to increase the success rate!"

"I don\'t know if you\'ve read Xianxia novels..." Lu Ran cautiously asked.

"What are you trying to say?" Gu Qingyi asked.

"In Xianxia novels, the protagonist\'s weapon usually goes through a blood oath to recognize the master, making the connection between the weapon and them much closer. Besides, there\'s also the idea of a Life-bound Magical Weapon, which grows with the protagonist and becomes more powerful..."

"The Weapon Control Trait, the advantage of this trait, is actually allowing the Pet Beast to leverage external forces."

"Indeed, by relying on a weapon, a Pet Beast can greatly enhance its combat strength. But no matter how familiar it is with the weapon, it\'s ultimately an external force. It\'s only tied to the Beast by \'experience\' and \'feeling\', and can\'t be said to have a perfect fit..."

"So, is there a possibility that we could find a sword for Mr. Husky, a weapon similar to a Life-bound Weapon, which can grow with it and have a very close connection to it?"

"With solid swordsmanship as a base and a Life-bound Weapon closely tied to itself, it should be able to adapt perfectly to the \'Weapon Control Trait\', right?"

"What are you planning to do?" Gu Qingyi was stunned.

Lu Ran smiled, "Previously, when I conquered the Demon Cat Forest Secret Realm, I got a Demon Cat\'s Nail, which seems to be usable in weapon forging."

"So, I was thinking, why can\'t we knock out Mr. Husky\'s teeth as well, to be used as one of the materials in forging the weapon, thereby increasing its connection to the weapon?"

Mr. Husky: ???

"Woof!" Mr. Husky covered its mouth, its eyes filled with panic.

Boss Lu, be humane!

"You..." Gu Qingyi and Manager Ying were shocked. Everyone else is killing monsters to forge equipment from their drops, and you\'re planning to... dismantle your own Pet Beast\'s parts for weapon forging?

Are you a devil?

Lu Ran threw a reassuring look at Mr. Husky.

There, there, Mr. Husky, don\'t be scared.

We have the Divine Deer Pendant, remember?

Mr. Husky previously had his teeth shattered by Demon Cat bones in the Secret Realm, and it was the Divine Deer Pendant that restored them.

So, since it can recover, taking a bit of its teeth as Wind Attribute materials to be included in a weapon is reasonable, right?

Immediately after Lu Ran finished speaking, Gu Qingyi, Manager Ying, and Mr. Husky all fell into deep thought.

Using materials from one\'s own body as one of the forging elements to craft a life-bound weapon closely linked to oneself...

This idea was indeed quite novel, and coupled with the fact that this dog seemed to indeed possess impressive swordsmanship, Gu Qingyi became lost in thought for a moment.

She could not judge whether evolving according to Lu Ran\'s approach could truly succeed.

"Forget it, since you have already made up your mind, then go ahead and boldly try it," Gu Qingyi said, "If it really can evolve perfectly, then you would have pioneered a completely new evolutionary system."

"Upon reflection, it is quite interesting. The previous three generations of Beast Trainers never considered this..." Gu Qingyi said,

"Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Nothing at the moment... What Mr. Husky and I want now is to quickly reach level 10 to meet the power standard for challenging the \'Abandoned Experiment Field Secret Realm.\' After all... there probably aren\'t any Weapon Control Traits for sale on the market, and even if there are, I probably couldn\'t afford them."

"Indeed, this trait is not popular in the market and has been neglected. It has been a long time since anyone challenged that Secret Realm. To get that trait, you\'ll have to rely on yourselves," Gu Qingyi said, "In that case, I will recommend two Secret Realms to you."

"Suitable for both you and it to enhance your strengths." Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn

"As for the information on the \'Abandoned Experiment Field Secret Realm,\' I will also find it and give it to you."

"Thank you!" Lu Ran was delighted. As he already owed a Flower of Spirit, asking for a few more pieces of information did not seem like a big deal.

No need to buy them at the maid cafe.

"?" Manager Ying, who was beside them, felt a bit dizzy when she saw Gu Qingyi about to give away information for free, especially since Lu Ran had intended to buy it from her.

How nice of you... Really nice!

She had been bustling about to help make connections, and yet she ended up at a loss!

"I recommend to you the Beginner Secret Realm \'Blizzard Mountain\' at normal difficulty level."

"And \'Mantis Jungle\' at the hard difficulty level of the Beginner Secret Realm."

"Blizzard Mountain is a very special Secret Realm; it has no monsters. The challenge is to navigate through the blizzard areas, and it tests the Pet Beasts\' resistance to cold, defensive power, and reaction awareness..."

"As for cold resistance, it surely won\'t have any problems. Moreover, in the blizzard, the wind and snow cut like knives, continuously damaging both the Pet Beasts and the Beast Trainers. This is the difficult part. Besides that, hailstones often fall in the blizzard, and the ability to navigate through these perilous conditions is the key challenge."

"Upon clearing this Secret Realm, a high-grade resource \'Seed of Cold Wind\' will drop. Consuming the \'Seed of Cold Wind\' can make the Wind Attribute Pet Beasts release even colder wind."

"Although it\'s not as good as awakening the Ice Attribute in combination with the Wind Attribute, or having the \'Northern Wind Trait,\' at your current stage, it is a resource that is very suitable for it. After all, as an Arctic Dog, comprehending the power of cold can better unleash its combat potential."

"This Secret Realm..." Lu Ran\'s eyes lit up. It seemed that he did remember such a Secret Realm.

So that\'s what it\'s like inside this Secret Realm; that\'s great. As Gu Qingyi had said, it does indeed seem very suitable.

"As for the Mantis Jungle Secret Realm, it is mainly inhabited by a high-level extraordinary race called Blade Mantis. They belong to the Wind Attribute, can fly, and both their attack power and speed are strong points, making them extremely dangerous."

"Since you are determined to train your Pet Beast in swordsmanship, this Secret Realm is definitely suitable for you."

"Inside the Mantis Jungle Secret Realm, there is a high-grade resource called \'Blade-Shaped Grass\' which is monopolized by the Blade Mantises. It is their favorite food, and this resource can effectively enhance the cutting property of Wind Attribute strength, making attacks of Wind Attribute strength all the more powerful."

"Defeating a Blade Mantis also has a chance to drop a high-grade material \'Mantis Feather,\' which is similar to a drug. When crushed and applied to their bodies, it enhances the Pet Beast\'s sensitivity to the wind and to airflow."

"There was once a Beast Trainer with a Butterfly Pet Beast, who used this resource to train his Pet Beast so that the butterfly could even evade attacks from enemies just by sensing changes in airflow, with its eyes closed."

"Of course, they will also drop \'Mantis Blade,\' which is a forging material for Wind Attribute weapons."

"What I have mentioned are the materials that regular Blade Mantises could drop. The boss of this Secret Realm is a level 10 Blade Mantis with both Gold and Wind Attributes, which is even stronger."

"If you defeat it, you\'ve completely conquered the Secret Realm, and the rewards are much richer, such as the high-grade resource \'Heart of the Insect.\' Consuming it, can increase the sharpness and hardness of the claws, teeth, scales, and other such organs on the Pet Beast."

"Oh, and if you get a grade of S class or above in your clearing score, there is a very small chance to drop the Beast Training Technique \'Wind Attribute Enhancement.\' The drops are great and worth spending a long time \'settling\' in this Secret Realm."

"Right, if you manage to solo clear both of these Secret Realms and achieve an SSS class rating, I think you should have the strength to challenge the Beginner Secret Realm at Abyss Difficulty. However, for Secret Realms at Abyss Difficulty, I still recommend forming a team to enter. The first three difficulty levels of Secret Realms can be solo cleared by powerful Beast Trainers, but the Abyss Difficulty will be somewhat challenging..."

"You can call upon your sister and find some like-minded Beast Trainers to form a team and take on the challenge."

"Alright." After Gu Qingyi finished speaking, Lu Ran took a deep breath. Well then, it seems he and Mr. Husky have more training to do – Blizzard Mountain Secret Realm, Mantis Jungle Secret Realm... they sound much more rewarding than the Demon Cat Forest Secret Realm.

If they crushed these a few times, wouldn\'t Mr. Husky soar?

Lu Ran looked towards Mr. Husky, who also revealed a sharp look in his eyes!
