By the waterhole, a few more small animals came.

But after seeing a few hyenas, they ran away, ignoring the little black ball. 

Meanwhile, those hyenas stood in place not knowing what to do like they had lost their target.

It was all because of the pacifier he got!

 

 

Yu Xingqiao watched happily, feeling that this scene is too amusing and couldn’t help but take a screenshot.

Arashi, who was pressed behind a rock, finally got free and pounced out at once, opening his mouth to bite one of the hyenas. 

The hyenas naturally could not wait for death, but when they were ready to fight back, Jun Lu’s Shadow Binding had already been launched silently.

 

The hyenas that have lost their ability to move were like meat on the chopping block, and their end came in no time.

[……]

[Source Power: 11/10]

A total of six hyenas gave Jun Lu eleven points of source power value.

He also quickly noticed that when he killed the magical beasts, there was a wisp of energy that drifted from the dead magical beasts into his body and transformed into that mysterious pure energy. 

And this energy was not limited by his own storage, he can get unlimited ones!

After noticing this, Jun Lu’s actions became even more efficient and frantic.

In a flash, the roles were reversed!

He was no longer the prey forced to hide everywhere, but became the most greedy hunter. With the advantage of his equipment and skills, he turned this waterhole into the best hunting ground. 

Yu Xingqiao became speechless.

He knew the cub was smart, but he never thought he would be this smart!

The cub could even create a bug for levelling!

Moreover, every wave of enemies the cub encountered was different, and even if they were the same kind of enemies, there were weak and strong ones. 

There were even some particularly alert ones who saw the corpses of other magical beasts on the ground and ran away vigilantly.

After noticing this, the cub will use the shadow cage to hide the corpses after killing magical beasts and taking the magic crystals. Afterwards, he probably reached the upper limit of the ability and he switched to digging a pit to bury it.

 

Yu Xingqiao spectated silently. The more he watched the more he thought- worthy of being his family’s cub, so smart!

This felt like watching a movie. 

While watching the cub make a variety of choices in the face of crisis, he could also occasionally assist from the side. He used the full source of power to upgrade the cub’s skills.

But more and more sources of energy are required with the later skills upgrades.

The first levels of skills, like Shadow Bound and Shadow Tentacle, required 20 points of source power to go from Lv3 to Lv4, while the advanced Shadow Cage required 20 points from Lv2 onwards.

The next level may even be doubled, that was, 40 points of source power. 

And the required Fate coin is still one.

Either way, with that pacifier, it would be hard for the cub to fail.

The game graphics were exquisite and realistic, any random scene looked as if it existed in reality. Even if Yu Xingqiao wanted to find bugs and air walls, he simply could not find them.

He even went into the waterhole.

From the shore the water looked clear, but when you dive down, you’d realise there were a lot of tiny particles in the water. 

This had a fatal attraction to Yu Xingqiao.

Even the water he used for bathing was distilled water. If he had encountered such dirty water in reality, he would have fainted, but this was a scene in the game.

While being safe and clean, it fully satisfied his curiosity.

Yu Xingqiao manipulated the camera and dived into the waterhole. 

There were many small beings living in the waterhole: silver swimming fish, transparent small shrimps, and some strange-looking creatures.

After diving down, he realized that the underground part of this waterhole was very deep, as if connected to underground water.

 

Then, he saw an eye.

Yu Xingqiao was startled. 

The eye was big, almost as big as Arashi’s head, and it was skittering around like it was looking for something.

It couldn’t be looking for him ba?

This thought flashed through Yu Xingqiao’s mind, and quickly shook his head. How was this possible? He was just looking through a perspective, not even a game character, how could this monster find him?

But the bottom of this waterhole was too dangerous! 

There was actually such a large creature, he could not even see the full face of this monster. Thinking of the cub still hunting on the shore, Yu Xingqiao hurriedly sent a command to him.

The blood-lusted Jun Lu, suddenly saw small golden words floating in front of him.

“There is danger underwater, leave here.”

This was the master! 

He instantly came to his senses.

Jun Lu pocketed the last magic crystal and glanced sideways at the pool of water beside him.

The morning sun was not too warm, shining on the water’s sparkling surface, blown by the wind, gently swaying, peaceful and quiet.

His spiritual sense did not detect danger, but this was all the more foreboding. 

Jun Lu didn’t get carried away; he called Arashi, jumped onto its back, and then quickly left the waterhole.

Not long after they left, an opening suddenly opened in mid-air.

A single flying machine, similar to a shuttle, burrowed out from the gap in space and finally stopped, filling the entire waterhole.

Soldiers in combat uniform jumped down from the shuttle one by one and started to thoroughly scour the area with practised speed. 

“This is the place, I sense him!”

A man driving the flying machine hovered in mid-air and said with a face full of excitement, “These magical beasts must have been killed by him, quick! You guys move fast, don’t let him get away!”

 

Yu Xingqiao heard the voice above the water hole.

It was those pursuers! 

Although it was an unfamiliar language, he had the system to help translate it, so he knew what the man was saying.

His viewpoint was only about a hundred meters away from the cub at most, which meant that the cub was still within a hundred meters and these people would soon catch up to him!

Yu Xingqiao frowned tightly, feeling the urgency of time.

Suddenly, he thought of something and hurriedly turned the camera. 

Looking at the huge eye under the pool of water, the teenager grinned.

“Boom——!!!”

Riding on Arashi’s back, Jun Lu had sensed his pursuers behind him and was chagrined that he had gotten too carried away and lingered too long when he heard a boom coming from the direction of the waterhole.

What happened? 

He looked back and saw a huge black shadow rising into the sky, angry screams resounding through the clouds, followed by the screams of those pursuers and the sound of debris falling to the ground in droves.

Small golden letters appeared: “Retreat!”

Jun Lu froze for a moment.

Was this what his master caused? Meanwhile, Arashi didn’t wait for his order and already sprinted off. 

If you looked down from the sky, you could see the animals in the wilderness, with the waterhole as the center, fleeing frantically in all directions in a radial pattern.

In the midst of the fleeing animals, he and Arashi did not stand out at all.

Yu Xingqiao had pressed a button to return to Jun Lu.

He fixed the camera on Jun Lu, and then looked far back. Even though Arashi had run thousands of meters in a matter of moments, they could still see the outline of the creature. 

It was a giant octopus.

Somehow, it had appeared in the waterhole connected to the underground rivers, and now it had been enraged by Yu Xingqiao and was venting its fury on all the creatures within sight.

 

Those pursuers, naturally, bore the brunt of it.

Yu Xingqiao breathed a sigh of relief, thinking back on the thrill of the moment, his heart was still pounding. But then he couldn’t help but grin, a little smugness prevailing in his shallow dimples. 

“Pa Ta——”

He was so focused on his phone that he only noticed someone was by his side when a tray was placed on the table in front of him.

The visitor was wearing protective clothing, and Yu Xingqiao, thinking it was the nurse lady, pleaded while looking at his phone, “Jiejie, wait a minute, I’ll be ready in another minute!”

The cub hadn’t settled down yet. He couldn’t rest assured if he let go of the game now. 

“Who told me that …… he is very good and obedient?”

A thick male voice sounded. Yu Xingqiao froze and raised his head. Through the glass mask of the protective suit, he saw a man’s handsome face.

“Ge, you’re back ……”

The youth’s eyes flickered, feeling a little guilty. 

Yu Ting took his phone and looked at it, then pressed it off and put it away in his own pocket.

“Let’s eat ba.”

Yu Xingqiao pouted and looked at him pitifully. However, Yu Ting was strictly impartial and incorruptible and remained unmoved.

Although his brother usually doted on him, he had always been strict and ruthless on such a matter of principle. Yu Xingqiao knew this very well. 

The youth reluctantly collected his expression and obediently began eating his nutritional liquid dinner.

It was the strawberry cake flavour that the nurse lady mentioned, it’s alright.

“Played a new game today?” Yu Ting sat by the bed to chat with him.

“Mmm! A game of raising cubs.” 

The youth was excited to talk about the game, sucking on the nutrient solution while talking to his brother, his face flushed and glowing.

“My family’s cub is cute and smart, but his life experience is a little miserable…”

 

He chattered about things in the game, Yu Ting listened patiently, and even though he himself was indifferent to the game, he did not show any impatience.

After the meal, Yu Ting then accompanied Yu Xingqiao to read and write, and waited until eight o’clock in the evening to rush him to bed on time. 

He didn’t let him touch his phone again all night.

Yu Xingqiao kept thinking about Jun Lu, making his heart itch the whole night.

But when he closed his eyes, fatigue came up all of a sudden, and he quickly sank into the dreamland.

The next day, Yu Xingqiao woke up early. 

After quickly washing up and eating breakfast, he happily retrieved his phone from the nurse lady and couldn’t wait to get into the game.

In the game, it was already dark.

The moonlight was like water, gently enveloping the earth.

It was a small forest with lush trees, and under a large tree, the silver-white wind wolf was lying on the ground. 

Its eyes were closed, but its ears were erect, moving from time to time, obviously not asleep.

And beside it, there was a small dumpling curled up.

Yu Xingqiao zoomed the camera closer in surprise.

It was a little black-haired boy with tattered clothes and a little dirty white face, yet the handsome features were still dazzling in the silver-white moonlight. 

The little boy’s brow was furrowed, like he had a nightmare, but his lips and teeth were still sucking on the pacifier, not daring to relax.

Suddenly, as if sensing something, his eyelashes twitched slightly, and he opened his eyes.
