Starting With Contract Pets

Chapter 54: You Are So Bad

Chapter 54: You Are So Bad

Out came a five-person hunting team, headed by a big-breasted girl in her twenties, who looked like a wild beauty in her cowboy outfit.

Next to her was a large black spider, a high-level servant pet. It was half a meter tall and looked terrifying.

Behind her were four men, three with high-level servants and one with a mid-level servant.

“Haha! Destiny will make enemies meet; I can’t believe we are actually meeting again.”

“Boss, these are those two who schemed against us and caused us to be eliminated in the previous competition,” said Zhang San.

Zhang San and Li Si, whom Su Bai had encountered in the previous competition, were coincidentally in this team.

“Hand over the Woodgrain Fruit Tree and the corpse of the Aquamarine Stone monster, then I’ll let you go.

“Otherwise, you might have to crawl out of here today,” commanded the big-breasted girl expressionlessly.

“What’s your name? Are you strong?” asked Su Bai after a moment of silence.

The big-breasted girl sneered. “What, are you trying to strike up a conversation? Forget about it; you’re unworthy. I’m only interested in the strong, not your little white face.”

“Yes, I can’t help but pay attention to beautiful girls.” Smiling, he threw the Aquamarine Stone’s broken crystal nucleus.

“What are you doing? Begging for forgiveness?” The big-breasted girl glanced at the crystal nucleus fragment in her hand and sneered.

“Take it as a gift from me to you.” Su Bai thought for a while and put his crystal nucleus into a sealed plastic bag.

“Chen Rouxue, now!” he suddenly shouted.

The girl was a little dazed at first, but she tacitly commanded her Big Demon to make its attack. “Xiao Bai, use Scary Ghost Shadow!”

“Hehehe!”

As soon as their captain shouted, her Big Demon flew out and enveloped the enemies with its Scary Ghost Shadow. At the same time, Purple Jade’s Hypnotic Powder flew out.

“You’re looking for death! Black Spider, use Mental Barrier!” Wei Ya, the big-breasted girl, shouted angrily. A transparent light curtain shrouded the attacks of both pets.

“F*ck, boss! They ran away,” Zhang San yelled.

“Let’s chase them. Chase them and break that kid’s leg!” The big-breasted girl gritted her teeth. How dared they not take her seriously? They were really courting death!

At this moment, the ground vibrated, and ten small Aquamarine Stone monsters emerged. Upon seeing the crystal nucleus fragments in the girl’s hand, their eyes instantly turned red. Energy balls then condensed and bombarded the team wildly.

“No, the culprit is that group of people who ran in that direction!” Wei Ya threw the crystal nucleus fragments and shouted at Su Bai and the others, who were already hundreds of meters away.

Alas, these small monsters had already fixed on targets and simply ignored the fleeing team. They spat energy balls one after another mercilessly.

“Despicable guy, wait and see! I’ll catch you and break your legs!”

While dealing with the small Aquamarine Stone monsters, Wei Ya roared to the sky furiously. She was so annoyed at falling for their trick that her teeth were almost ground to bits.

On the other side, Su Bai and the others had quietly escaped.

“Captain, you’re so bad! How did you know that a bunch of small Aquamarine Stone monsters are hiding there? When I saw you give her the crystal nucleus, I really thought that you took a fancy to her,” Chen Rouxue asked in surprise.

“Exactly! Your heart is all black; that trick is really too cheap.” Yang Zhou chuckled lowly.

“You’re so bad, but I like it,” Jiang Yang said in a high-pitched queeny voice.

“B*llsh*t! It’s the power of knowledge. Don’t you know my true identity?” Su Bai cast a glance at Chen Rouxue and Yang Zhou.

“What true identity?” asked Chen Tingting curiously.

“Oh, yes, I forgot to tell you. Our captain has another identity as a junior trainer,” informed Yang Zhou after thinking for a while.

“Hey, Brother Su, can you customize an exclusive nurturing plan for me? Please~” Upon hearing this, Jiang Yang immediately whined and acted coquettish.

“F*ck! You’re dead meat.” Yang Zhou groaned.

“I want it, too,” Chen Tingting said.

“Jiang Yang, shut up!” Su Bai clenched his fists. It was too terrifying.

“Stone monsters are generally hermaphrodite. That one was probably in poor condition after being attacked by Zhang San’s team as it had just given birth not long ago.

“That’s the real reason for its sluggish breath and why its chest became its weak point. The crystal nucleus partly split when the litter came out.

“If not for that, the Woodgrain Fruit Tree could’ve restored it to its heyday.”

After explaining this, Su Bai spoke anew. “Let’s leave quickly; it’s not safe here. As for the custom training programs for you two, it’s a small matter. Let’s talk more when we’re back.”

“Okay.”

Everyone nodded and picked up their speed. The danger level in the forest in the afternoon was higher and was unsuitable for them.

After more than an hour, they finally exited the forest, hailed a cab on the highway, and returned home.

Nearly an hour later, they went to the Carp Spirit Market.

“I have four pieces of Woodgrain Fruit, one for each of you. You can use it however you like. I want the tree itself. Since I’ve absorbed the pith ore previously, I’m at a slight advantage. Once I sell the materials and the crystal nuclei, I’ll give some money to you guys.”

Su Bai said fairly.

Their original allocation was negotiated as such: Su Bai 30%, Chen Rouxue 20%, Yang Zhou, Jiang Yang, and Chen Tingting equally sharing the remaining 50%. In the end, there were some changes based on the combat performance.

For example, Chen Tingting’s Blade Praying Mantis had performed brilliantly during this hunt. After another round of discussions, she received 20% of the income, while Jiang Yang and Yang Zhou received 15%.

“No, just take the money as a free meal.” Chen Rouxue smiled.

“Haha, then I’ll treat everyone to a meal later.” Su Bai laughed.

After allocating the Woodgrain Fruit, he went to the Hunting Hall to submit the tasks. He also got rid of the materials and crystal nuclei on the way.

Their final harvest was 320,000 yuan. The task rewards added to 110,000 yuan, the monster crystal nuclei and materials sold for 130,000 yuan, and the Aquamarine Stone monster’s crystal nucleus sold for only 80,000 yuan because it was broken and missing a piece.

After dividing the money, Su Bai received 96,000 yuan, Chen Rouxue and Chen Tingting received 64,000 yuan, while Yang Zhou and Jiang Yang received 48,000 yuan. None of them had any objections to this allocation.

Although he had received 96,000 yuan, he eventually gave 30,000 yuan to the others, the amount equivalent to the Woodgrain Fruit Tree.

Under his persistent request, everyone accepted the money.

With so many gains, the group was overjoyed. It would have definitely been difficult to obtain so much alone, especially the two rookies Jiang Yang and Yang Zhou.

Su Bai was also overjoyed. His biggest gain was getting a second contract page, thereby earning the qualification to contract another pet.

Furthermore, he now had 60,000 yuan. Including the 300,000 yuan for winning the competition, the money he received from betting on rocks and from his parents, and the remaining 90,000 in bonus from the Cannes Trainer Association, he now had a total of 450,000 yuan.

Of course, this did not include his salary of 210,000 yuan from the Blue Moon Cultivation House and the financial aid he planned to request from the school.

With this, he did not have to worry about money for a while.

In fact, he only managed to earn so much money out of luck and having encountered a wounded warlord monster today.

Furthermore, they had only seen such a saturated pool of monsters to kill because a batch of monsters had just been released in the nearby wilderness. Under normal circumstances, they would not have met monsters so easily.

The hunting squad depended on luck, since there was no way they could go on a monster battlefield and hunt for monsters there. If they were lucky and encountered a suitable monster, then they would earn a lot of money.

If they were unlucky and encountered a dangerous monster, they would be killed directly. The death rate was terribly high at their current level, and there was often no way to save money, either, since all their earnings would be thrown into their pets.

Just like professional Pet Tamers, they only seemed glamorous on the surface but were, in fact, poor.

“Let’s go; I’ll treat you guys to dinner!” Su Bai was in a jolly mood.

“Let’s go and eat our fill!”
