I dreamed of returning to ancient times, and I became a beast tamer

Lu Yuan's consciousness seemed to be caught in the vortex of time, constantly spinning, twisting, rolling, and then sinking to the bottom.

When he was dizzy and lost his direction, he suddenly felt something solid under his feet and a cold breeze blew past his ears.

He opened his eyes and saw the deciduous forest covered in silver. Every silver leaf trembled in the wind, and snowflakes fluttered in the air, giving it an exotic and homely beauty.

He looked at the sky. Thick white clouds were floating above and two huge suns were hanging on both sides, making the reflections of the trees appear forked, which was extremely magical.

Is this the initial era? Sure enough, it was extraordinary at first sight and left him with a deep impression.

He summoned Dabai from his own beast control space, "Dabai, look up at the sky!"

Dabai immediately looked up at the sky, squatted on the ground with his big butt, swayed his black tail from side to side, and looked excited.

Having never seen such a spectacular sight, Dabai watched it on the snow for a while, until Lu Yuan asked it to work, then it reluctantly looked away.

"Explore the surrounding situation and use stealth skills."

“Ah!”

Dabai immediately activated his active skill "Hide". A series of light footsteps were heard on the spot, and his figure disappeared.

If you look closely, you will find two rows of distinct Nian beast footprints extending into the forest ahead.

There was no way, this was snow, and the Nian beast was large, weighing up to three hundred kilograms. As long as it moved, it would leave footprints in the snow.

As for Dabai's safety, I'm not too worried.

First of all, this is a dream, and death in a dream does not count as death.

Furthermore, the Nian Beast Dabai is a three-star pet with strong combat power.

There are three stars in its sea of ​​consciousness. Each star represents an active skill, and three stars mean three active release skills.

However, the size of the star number does not represent the number of passive talents.

When a pet awakens a star-level skill, there is a very small chance that it will be accompanied by a passive talent, but generally the passive is zero.

Under normal circumstances, modern beastmasters do not rely on metaphysical awakening, but instead develop a supporting passive talent system through scientific training.

Breeding-type beastmasters like Lu Yuan are the ones who specialize in this kind of work.

The beast masters in ancient times did not have such good means, and the passive talents of their pets were basically obtained by luck.

A modern three-star pet may seem to have only three active skills, but in fact it may have seven or eight passive talents.

A single passive talent is not strong, but it is different when several passive talents that are cultivated are placed in one body.

Each passive talent complements each other, making up for the shortcomings of the pet, forming a system cycle, and thus bursting out amazing power.

Take Baymax as an example. It is only three-star grade and can only act timidly in modern times, but in ancient times it could strike hard and pin a four-star beast with a single passive to the ground and beat it at will.

Because in modern times, just looking at the star rating on the surface cannot directly calculate its actual combat effectiveness, and some people’s pets are actually monsters.

Taking his school as an example, the one-star pet cultivated by his junior fellow student has kept its star level down for a long time and has a lot of passive abilities. It can fight his Dabai on equal terms. Such money and ability are beyond his reach.

In ancient times, the star rating of pets was basically linked to their actual combat effectiveness.

When ancient people were studying the adaptation cases of bloodline and attribute skills, modern people were already studying how to challenge higher levels.

This is the power of scientific beast taming.

“Ahhh!”

The voice of the Nian beast rang in my ears.

A humanoid target was spotted ahead!

The Nian beast Dabai revealed its figure and circled around Lu Yuan, with its big black fluffy tail spinning rapidly and its tongue hanging out, looking at him eagerly, begging for snacks as a reward.

If it weren't for the black horn on its head, the Nian beast would really look like a cute big dog.

Lu Yuan once thought about raising a real big dog, but the Nian beast Dabai had already eaten him to death, and coupled with the financial pressure brought by the blind date at the time, he did not raise a new pet.

He casually threw out a concentrated freeze-dried snack and put it into Dabai's mouth, and Dabai immediately showed a satisfied expression.

“Ahhh!”

Dabai said that the man was weak and not dangerous.

"Come on, let's go take a look."

Lu Yuan took Dabai into the deciduous forest, pulled aside the ancient bushes, waved away the snowflakes that were drifting towards them, and fixed his eyes on a girl playing in the snow.

The girl was slender and not tall, about 1.5 meters. She wore a patched grey fur coat. Her face was dirty, but her eyes were bright.

She held the grooved wooden stick in one hand and stuffed the snow into the groove of the stick with the other hand. She stared at the snow in the groove and swung it violently, as if she was using all her life's strength to hit.

There was a sound.

The wooden sticks collided, making crisp knocking sounds.

The snow balls in the grooves flew into the sky after the collision, shining brightly under the double suns.

The white snow flew high up, and then fell down in large flakes, like light rain falling to the ground. The girl stood in the rain and looked up, feeling the baptism of the snow and rain, which was a beautiful scene in artistic conception.

The girl turned around suddenly and found someone standing behind her. When their eyes met, she was startled like a little rabbit. She quickly threw away the stick in her hand and ran away.

Lu Yuan didn't mean to scare her. When he saw the girl running away, he thought about it and decided to chase after her.

The main reason was that he had just arrived and was unfamiliar with the place, so he didn't know where to look for pets.

It’s definitely a good idea to follow the locals, and you’ll most likely find a place where humans live.

Just then, after running for less than a minute and passing through the woods, he saw a newly cultivated field and a wooden barrel filled with water lying on the ridge of the field.

The girl huddled behind the old man, sticking half of her head out to look at him, feeling both fear and curiosity.

The old man was wearing a tattered blue cotton jacket, his face was full of wrinkles, and his skin was a little rough from years of work. His body was not as strong as when he was young, but he still exuded an aura of strength and tenacity.

His expression suddenly changed and he summoned his two-star pet "Red Firecracker", gritting his teeth as if he had met an enemy.

Lu Yuan immediately understood the source of the other party’s hostility—the Nian beast Dabai standing next to him.

In ancient times, the Nian beast was the enemy of mankind, so it is no wonder that the other party showed hatred.

Lu Yuan first performed a language-mastering beast taming technique on himself, which was a must-learn beast tamer technique for training beast tamers. It allowed Lu Yuan to gain temporary mental sympathy and understand what the other person was saying based on the other person's mental fluctuations.

If the other person's mental quality is not bad, he can roughly understand what Lu Yuan said through empathy.

The old man in front of him was already a two-star beastmaster and was within the communication range.

"Don't be nervous, this is my pet." Lu Yuan said slowly in a gentle tone.

The invisible spiritual fluctuations were transmitted to the old man, and his uneasy mood was greatly soothed.

After a few seconds, he became alert again and realized that this was not the local dialect.

The old man's eyes suddenly widened, full of vigilance.

During this New Year's Day, the disaster of Nian monster is about to come, and the whole village is preparing to fight against it.

Suddenly someone appeared with the Nian beast, and it was hard not to suspect that this suspicious man was a monster in disguise.

The old man didn't say anything. For the safety of his granddaughter, he immediately ordered his two-star pet Red Firecracker to go up and fight.

"It seems that we can only convince them physically." Lu Yuan said to Dabai.

Dabai's aura was restrained, and he did not release the aura of a three-star pet, otherwise how could Red Firecracker dare to be so presumptuous.

There are twenty small firecrackers hanging on a hemp rope on the red firecracker. Every time a firecracker is swung, it is equivalent to an explosion attack with fire attribute.

This not only restrains the Nian beast in terms of attributes, but also in terms of race, which is a double restraint.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, cultivating a normal two-star Firecracker Beast can easily suppress the three-star Nian Beast.

However, the Nian Beast Dabai is not a pet of this life, but a modern pet bred in the Sixth Era.

After scientific training, Dabai has long overcome the psychological fear derived from his blood, eliminated the fear of noise, and specifically improved the defects of his weak fire body.

Nowadays, only the ultimate fire can restrain it.

The old man didn't know these details, so he commanded, "Double fire!"

The red firecracker immediately swung two small firecrackers. The thumb-sized firecracker broke free from the constraints of the hemp rope and flew towards Dabai like two red lights.

The firecrackers on the Red Firecracker Beast are used up one by one, and the recovery time is long, but the power is enormous. A fully loaded Firecracker Beast can hit ten to twenty Nian Beasts, and after using up all the firecrackers on its body, it will have no combat effectiveness.

To fight an ordinary Nian beast, usually one firecracker is enough, and using two is considered very serious.

I saw Dabai calmly raise his big paw, easily pick up the two firecrackers into his palm, and then suddenly close his paw.

With two loud bangs, red light flashed between the claws, and the firecrackers exploded violently in Dabai's palm.

The muffled sound was deafening, and the snow underfoot suddenly raised a meter-high snow dust, which fluttered in the air. It can be seen that the power was not small.

However, after seeing it, the old man shuddered and cold sweat broke out on his head.

"what!"

If an ordinary two-star Nian beast was hit by a double explosion, half of its body would be blown to ashes. It would not dare to catch it with its hands and could only run away.

The three-star Nian beast was blown off with its entire arm and its entire body was on fire.

If there is no water nearby to put out the fire, the fire-fearing Nian beast will spontaneously combust and die.

This is not only a bloodline suppression, but also an attribute restraint. The sound can also affect the mentality of the Nian Beast, making it panic and thus increase its flaws.

However, the red firecracker beast that the whole village relied on was helpless against the Nian beast before them.

It even swallowed the double explosion with a nonchalant look on its face, looking like nothing had happened to it, with a faint smile on its face, as if saying:

"That's it?"

how can that be!

The old man's face gradually turned pale, and he realized that this was not an ordinary Nian beast. He gently pushed his granddaughter with his hand behind his back, suggesting that she run away quickly.
