Yu Xingqiao looked at the game screen with great interest.

The milk bottle produced by the system was about the same height as the little black ball; with Arashi as a comparison it actually looks very small, but it should be enough to fill the little black ball’s stomach. 

“Eat ah~”

Yu Xingqiao stretched out his finger and poked the little black ball’s back.

AD

 

 

Jun Lu felt the finger poking behind him and stared at the milk bottle in front of him with a helpless, tangled face. His whole body was written with rejection.

No need to guess, this bottle must’ve been brought out by his “demon” master. 

So was this a sign that he should eat it?

 

Could he refuse?

As the crown prince of the Empire, the future emperor of the shining empire, even if he was hungry, he couldn’t drink from a milk bottle! And what was in this bottle, it couldn’t really be ……

Milk …… ba?

 

This light brown colour did not look like it.

“Why don’t you eat?”

Yu Xingqiao moved the bottle towards the little black ball again, and also adjusted the angle, tilting the pacifier towards the little black ball’s side.

Who would have expected that the little black ball unexpectedly jumped back a little. 

Yu Xingqiao was anxious.

“System, you sure there is no problem with this milk bottle, ba? The cub is not eating.”

[System’s product, Quality Assured!]

Yu Xingqiao raised his eyebrows. 

[You hold on.]

Then, the system box slowly disappeared.

Yu Xingqiao then waited patiently for a while. Then he saw the little black ball that was hiding far away, jumped back gently. On the smooth surface of the little black ball, there was a part that was slightly sunken, like a small mouth.

Then, he took the pacifier in. 

People under the eaves have no choice but to lower their heads.

 

After receiving severe criticism and education from the system, Jun Lu had to resign himself to his fate.

 

He overcame a great psychological barrier before he took the pacifier and took a very small sip of the light brown liquid in the bottle.

The first time he tasted the milk tea, Jun Lu couldn’t help but be stunned. 

Surprisingly …… It was quite tasty.

Rich, creamy and sweet. There was even a very special, slightly sweet and bitter yet very fresh taste.

Having something in his belly finally made Jun Lu feel the hunger.

He had not eaten for almost a month now, solely relying on the absorption of light energy to sustain his life needs. 

Involuntarily, he started sucking hard.

Anyway, this scene will only be seen by his “demon” master. The master has even seen his worst appearance, now this …… was not much, right?

Yu Xingqiao looked at the little black ball eating sweetly, silently curving his eyes.

Looks like the milk tea he made was a success! 

Although he knew from the bottom of his heart that it was just a program preset by the game data, he still felt happy from the bottom of his heart and even began wanting to believe that this was a real world.

Unsure if it was because it was really good, the little black ball sucked it up especially fast, gurgling, and in no time the milk bottle was bottomed out.

When it let go of the pacifier, it also gently burped.

This time there was a sound effect, Yu Xingqiao clearly heard the sound of little Jun Lu burping. 

The little milk cub was so sweet and meng that it made his heart melt.

He stroked the little black ball’s head, then took the milk bottle back into his backpack so he wouldn’t lose it.

[Ding~ Successfully completed the side quest [Feed the cub], gained Gold +100, +1 draw chance]

[Cumulative number of lottery draws obtained: 3, please use it as soon as possible.]

The waiting time was undoubtedly torturous, but fortunately, the nurse lady was accompanying him.

Seeing his anxiety, she then pulled him along to walk around the room.

Yu Xingqiao’s room was large, about a hundred square feet.

There wasn’t a lot of furniture in the room; in order to do sterile treatment, many materials could not be used, therefore the room looks very minimalist. 

Because he stayed indoors all year round, and was unable to do strenuous exercise, Yu Xingqiao could only take a walk inside the room as an exercise in order to avoid muscle atrophy.

Usually, ten minutes was very fast. However, now, it felt like every second is a year.

The teenager casually swayed his arms, his eyes kept staring at the timer, having a distracted look.

“Is the game fun? It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you so engaged.” The nurse lady was wearing a protective suit, and her gentle smile could be seen through the glass mask. 

Yu Xingqiao was a little shy, he scratched his head, tone serious: “En, it’s really fun!”

The nurse lady curled her lips slightly and asked, “So what’s your cub’s name?”

“Jun Lu!”

“Oh? That’s quite an imposing name.” 

“I think so too!”

The two then exchanged game experiences. The caregiver lady raised a Vine Flower, and she gave it a very cute name, Mengmeng.

Yu Xingqiao froze for a moment because he remembered that his game did not have a naming session.

When the contract was made, Little Jun Lu told him his name. 

“Maybe you picked a rare race.” The nurse lady laughed, “Xingqiao is really great, you can play a rare race as soon as you play.”

Yu Xingqiao was a little embarrassed by the compliment, but at the same time a little proud.

 

His cub was indeed a rare race, the world’s only one left …… Yu Xingqiao thought, and felt that little Jun Lu was too pitiful.

“By the way, jiejie, what does your cub like to eat ah?” Yu Xingqiao asked, thinking to get some experience. 

“Mengmeng likes to eat bug sauce the most.”

“Bug …… sauce?” Yu Xingqiao couldn’t help but shiver.

The nurse lady continued, “Yes, in order to make this, I still have to catch bugs, one by one, of all colours……”

“Jiejie, quickly stop talking about it!” 

Yu Xingqiao panicked trying to make her stop. A mere mention of bugs and he got goosebumps all over his body. His gaze at the nurse lady was full of admiration, but also secretly thankful.

Thankfully, he did not choose the Vine Flower that time!

“Vine Flower is very cute ah.” The nurse lady said seriously.

“Mm-hmm, cute, very cute.” 

Yu Xingqiao nodded his head and changed the topic in a panic.

The two exchanged game experiences, and time passed in a flash.

“Then you continue playing, I’ll go prepare dinner for you.”

Watching the nurse lady leave, Yu Xingqiao couldn’t wait to run back to bed and opened his phone to enter the game. 

After the game screen became clear, Yu Xingqiao was once again dumbfounded.

He saw the endless green grassland, blue sky, white clouds, pleasant scenery, but in the center of the screen, Arashi was dying in a pool of blood.

He could see that it didn’t have many injuries, but there was blood spilling from its mouth.

This scene stunned Yu Xingqiao. 

The youth’s face was slightly white as he hurriedly looked for his family cub.

With his previous experience, he knew that his game view was fixed on Little Jun Lu, so he must be in the game screen.

 

Finally, he found him under Arashi’s belly.

Yu Xingqiao hurriedly clicked on the attribute panel. 

The health bar that Little Jun Lu had filled up not long ago had emptied out again, leaving only a trace of health left. The hunger status had disappeared, but it now had serious injury and coma, and Arashi’s situation was similar.

Yu Xingqiao’s hand shook, and gave the last health bottle to little Jun Lu first.

[The user is in a coma, unable to consume. Can be sprayed with medicine, the effect is reduced by 50%]

Yu Xingqiao turned off the prompt. He tapped spray on the health bottle, then went to the mall to buy a hundred primary health bottles in one go, spraying the two little ones like money doesn’t matter. 

A bloody fog suddenly rose in the grassy area, red fog permeating the air.

Finally, after the emergency treatment, little Jun Lu and Arashi’s health bar filled out in time.

Yu Xingqiao went back to buy healing medicine, and wanted to give it to little Jun Lu first, but the system prompted him that little Jun Lu needed intermediate level healing medicine or higher to be effective.

But the intermediate level healing medicine had not been unlocked yet! This was probably the issue with rare races. 

Yu Xingqiao had no choice but to use it on Arashi first.

After two primary healing pills, Arashi finally stopped losing blood and regained his consciousness.

After opening its eyes, the first thing it did was to protect the little black ball. It then looked at the grass not far away and bared its teeth fiercely.

Yu Xingqiao turned the camera over to look. 

Pushing away the dense grass, a huge snake head appeared in the game screen, with a pair of perfectly round staring snake eyes, giving Yu Xingqiao a startle.

After calming down, he realized that the snake was motionless and hastily suppressed his pounding heart and clicked detect.

This snake’s detection cost 50 gold coins, several times more expensive than an ordinary wind wolf.

Race: Rock Python 

Growth: Mature

Attribute: Earth

 

Level: Mid-rank

Rarity: SS 

Skill: Skin Petrification

Skill Description: Instantly increase defense over ten times, lasts ten minutes

Status: Just died

The python’s body was thicker than Arashi’s head and extraordinarily long. Yu Xingqiao had seen a documentary about pythons, so he was well aware of how terrifying this big guy was. 

It seemed that the culprit that led to little Jun Lu and Arashi’s serious injury was this big python.

Yu Xingqiao hastily clicked on the cub’s log.

Within seconds of him leaving the game, little Jun Lu encountered this large python.

Although this python did not have the same attack skills as Arashi, it was able to petrify its body and had amazing defense, so it was difficult to damage it from the outside. 

Yu Xingqiao quickly looked down.

[Cub Log]

17:17

[Rock Python] broke the [Shadow Bind] and swallowed the cub into its belly. 

17:18

Cub made [Shadow Tentacle].

17:19

[Rock Python]’s guts were torn, heart was ripped out, and skin petrification failed. 

[Rock Python] suffered a lightning attack.

17:22

 

[Rock Python] died.

17:24 

Cub escaped from [Rock Python]’s belly, his injuries worsened and he fell into a coma.

A few short lines of record reveal the thrill of the battle.

The cub was almost eaten!

Yu Xingqiao felt a pang of fear, and it was then that the battle reward came late. 

[Ding~ The cub killed a [Rock Python] above his level, over-completing the continuous quest [Hunting and Anti-Hunting], doubling the reward, source power +15]

The reward was directly tripled!

It seemed that the difference in strength between the two was really huge, which was why the reward was increased so many times.

Looking at the source power value: 17/10 

Yu Xingqiao remembered that the next level skill upgrade required 10 points of source power. He hurriedly opened the skill tree and upgraded [Shadow Tentacle Lv2] to [Shadow Tentacle Lv3].

Source Power: 7/10

Looking at the skill tree, Yu Xingqiao had a slight sense of urgency in his heart.

“System, at least while I’m gone, make sure the cub doesn’t encounter danger, ba?” 

He must sleep at night and would be away for at least eight hours!

[The danger is randomized, you can improve the cub’s strength to ensure that the cub can survive the crisis.]

The system’s reply was very Buddhist. Thinking that it didn’t care about the survival of his cub, Yu Xingqiao felt a little short of breath, but couldn’t do anything about it.

After all, it was the rules of the game …… 

That said, did this game have an official complaint channel? This design was really too inhumane!

Yu Xingqiao frowned, he had to hurry to improve the strength of the cub. Currently in the wilderness, he didn’t know when there would be magical beasts out there, and he could not always be online.

 

What if the cub died while he was away?

He opened the mall to buy some equipment, but found that there wasn’t much equipment cubs at this stage can wear. Basically, only human form can use them. 

After asking the system, you’d have to do quests or draw a lottery to get equipment at this stage.

I can’t even think about using kryptonite, it’s really so inhumane!

Yu Xingqiao could only click on the lottery.

A big spinning wheel surfaced on the game screen. 

Weapons, defense gear, rare props, materials, gold ……the variety was quite rich, just no diamonds.

The system was such a miser, it would certainly not gift diamonds la.

Yu Xingqiao also did not hold much hope, because his luck had always been not good.

The first time, a can of milk powder that can enhance immunity. 

Emmmm, not bad. At least he wouldn’t have to worry about food for the time being.

The second time, Miracle coin x1.

Yu Xingqiao felt a bit helpless. This coin is by far the most useless thing, right?

The third time, he folded his hands and prayed as seen in the TV series, before clicking on the lottery. 

The wheel spun quickly, then slowly slowed down.

Yu Xingqiao stared closely at the column of protective gear. Right now, he wanted a piece of armour that would allow him to protect little Jun Lu during the time he was forced to go offline.

Finally, under his prayers, the pointer slowly came to a halt ——

Defensive armour! 

Yu Xingqiao’s eyes widened, unable to believe that he had actually won the draw!

However ……

 

[Congratulations on winning the defensive gear draw: pacifier x1]
