National Beast Survival: I can see hidden messages

"Who are you?" Su Fan asked warily.

He glanced at it without leaving any trace, only to find that the [Ancient Rock Lizard] ignored him as its master and was still greedily eating unknown food.

The initial pet was simply bought like this?

Come on, you might as well follow him.

"Don't be nervous, I don't mean any harm." The round-faced young man glanced at the stone shield in Su Fan's hand in fear and stammered.

As if he could see Su Fan's distrust, he explained quickly: "My name is Zhang Xiaoliu. I am also a beast master who was captured by the system, but I was a little earlier than you."

system! Beast master!

Su Fan's pupils shrank slightly, he actually knew about the system and the beast master!

Isn't it really dangerous? Is he too sensitive?

"My name is Su Fan." Out of courtesy, he also reported his name.

Zhang Xiaoliu, well, a very common name, just like his baby face.

"Nice to meet you. I haven't met another beast master for a long time." Zhang Xiaoliu was a little excited, and he showed an honest smile, like a simple child.

"My pet?" Su Fan asked tentatively.

Hearing this, Zhang Xiaoliu quickly put his hand into his arms and answered Su Fan while groping for it: "Oh, yes, I forgot to tell you."

Su Fan suddenly seemed to be stimulated by something, his pupils shrank slightly, every muscle and nerve tensed silently, and he quickly put the [Clay Shield] on his chest, his whole figure was like a stretched hard bow.

Zhang Xiaoliu's body shook violently, as if he was startled by Su Fan's excessive reaction.

"Don't be excited, No." He took out an earth-yellow fruit with spiral patterns on the outside from his arms.

"This kind of fruit is called [Devil Fruit]. It is a high-end resource that can only be found in rare 'dungeons'."

Copy? Damn, you said copy, right?

A turmoil arose in Su Fan's heart. "Copy" is an exclusive term that exists in the game, but now that it comes from the mouth of a person in the real world, it is still so natural.

Su Fan's eyes were a little dazed. Isn't what he is playing now a real-life survival game?

The line between the two is constantly being blurred.

Zhang Xiaoliu was not aware of the shock his words brought to Su Fan. He explained to himself: "There are many forms of fruit, corresponding to the different characteristics of pets. If the two have matching properties, The fruit will have an irresistible attraction for pets.”

"If a pet senses a matching fruit, it will ignore everything, including the master's orders, just to swallow the [Devil Fruit]."

When Zhang Xiaoliu said this, a bad smile appeared on his fair and round face: "I heard that [Devil Fruit] has devil in its name because there may be a cruel and violent devil hidden in each fruit. ”

After saying that, he looked at Su Fan expectantly. You know, when he first heard this statement, he was too scared to touch those fruits for a long time.

"What's the effect?" Su Fan pondered.

"Huh? Ah."

"What is the function, advantages? Disadvantages?"

Su Fan asked again.

A trace of annoyance appeared on Zhang Xiaoliu's face, and he answered honestly: "The advantage is that the pet that swallows the fruit will become extremely excited and will evolve in a few days. The disadvantage has not been discovered yet, but it should No harm done.”

As if to confirm Zhang Xiaoliu's statement, an earthy-yellow light was flowing on the cuticles of the crawling [Ancient Rock Lizard], and its momentum was also rising.

At the same time, Su Fan finally heard the message conveyed by the [Ancient Rock Lizard]. It told Su Fan that it was full of power and at the same time felt ashamed for not following the order and rushing out rashly.

"It's okay, I don't blame you." Su Fan reassured in his heart.

Through [Ancient Rock Lizard]'s not very logical explanation, Su Fan roughly understood the whole story.

When [Ancient Rock Lizard] smelled the smell of [Devil Fruit], it instantly lost all reason.

There was only one thought emanating and expanding in his little head, "Find the source of the taste and eat it up!"

To be honest, the influence of [Devil Fruit] was too exaggerated. Su Fan even suspected that there might be other factors that could reduce the temptation to drive pets crazy.

After knowing that his pet was fine, Su Fan relaxed and let go of the [Clay Shield] he had been holding in his hand.

The next moment, a faint feeling of fatigue spread throughout his limbs.

[System prompt: Each time you use a skill (level 1), it will consume 1 point of physical strength and 1 point of mental strength]

"If I remember correctly, I have 3 physical strength left and my mental strength should be 2.1."

The skill could only be used twice at most. Su Fan's eyes were as deep as ink, but the pet recovered its combat effectiveness, which was a blessing in misfortune.

He didn't focus on looking at the system panel. It was because the system put a lot of pressure on him, forcing him to concentrate on facing the unknown crisis.

Damn it, what the hell is a crisis?

The anxiety swept away from Su Fan's eyes.

He now hopes that the danger will ride directly on his face when he opens the door, so that he does not need to be vigilant at all times and pay attention to the surrounding disturbances.

"By the way, Zhang Xiaoliu, where is your beast master?" Su Fan then remembered that this humble young man had been helping him until now, but rarely mentioned his own situation.

"My master beast died, leaving me alone." At this point, his bright eyes dimmed suddenly.

Silence, except for the roar of the wind, fell into a brief silence between the two.

Okay, Su Fan twitched the corners of his mouth, and he was the topic ender.

"Then why don't you go to my wooden house for shelter first?" Su Fan stared at Zhang Xiaoliu with burning eyes.

Zhang Xiaoliu's face was full of joy, but he didn't know what he was thinking of. He sighed and said: "But after the death of the beast, the abilities and attributes it brought disappeared from my body."

"Now I am just an ordinary person and a burden." Zhang Xiaoliu's eyes were a little confused.

Even if you don’t take the initiative to invite? Is it impossible to come in at all, or is it really like Zhang Xiaoliu said, he thinks it will not be of any help to me, so he is too ashamed to come in?

Su Fan's repeated tests only made the incident more confusing. Is Zhang Xiaoliu an enemy or a friend?

"It's okay, come with me. I'll take you to the cabin as a reward. After all, not long ago, you gave my pet a [Devil Fruit] for free."

At the same time, Su Fan gave the "Ancient Rock Lizard" an order from the bottom of his heart: Watch the person behind me!

"Yeah, fine." Zhang Xiaoliu replied with an apology on his face.

Su Fan took the lead in walking towards the wooden house along the dusty ground.

Whoops!

Zhang Xiaoliu, who was behind Su Fan, took a deep breath and followed quickly.

A strong wind roared past, making Su Fan's sleeves rustle. He gently narrowed his eyes, feeling the hard-won comfort.

The moment the wind blew, the young man behind Su Fan changed. His round and lovely face was full of sarcasm and ridicule. The corners of his mouth were raised to both sides in an exaggerated arc, making a gesture that no human being could do. expression.

As for the [Ancient Rock Lizard] who had been given the order, although it was still staring at Zhang Xiaoliu, its dark yellow pupils were mixed with a little strange red light. The red light was full of cruelty, violence, etc. negative emotion.
