Chapter 4 Abyss Demon Eye, Skill Secret Food!
Gold Medal
Its full name is the Gold Pioneer Medal!
These are badges of honor issued by the Human Alliance, a subordinate organization of the Supreme Council to which Lu Yu belongs. They are divided into the Gold Medal, the Morning Star Medal, and so on...
There are two ways to obtain the Gold Badge: one is to complete ten Gold Missions issued by the Alliance, and the other is to be a hero who sacrifices himself while performing an official pioneering mission.
Lu Yu belongs to the latter category.
His parents, who were part of the system, sacrificed their lives after participating in official pioneering missions. He received a gold medal, which he could choose to exchange for a huge amount of wealth of equal value.
In a sense, he was also a true and loyal member of the Human Alliance.
The function of the merit badge is simple: it can be exchanged for a golden-level spiritual beast, which represents a beast with leadership potential! (Humans are classified as bronze, silver, and gold, corresponding to servants, elites, and leaders of beasts.)
It's similar to how, in Pokémon, League children can receive a potential starter Pokémon at the age of ten.
Of course, not everyone has it, otherwise there wouldn't be so many bug-catching boys and small fry opponents.
Of course, these are things that the beautiful, innocent world of childhood will not reveal.
The reason Lu Yu didn't choose to use the medal of merit was certainly not because he had some kind of psychological psoriasis or didn't want to use the heirloom left by his father, or any other ridiculous reasons.
Part of the reason is that he has been recuperating since he awakened, not to mention that there are conditions for using the Golden Medal.
The first is turning eighteen.
Secondly, one must have a clean personal background.
Thirdly, after receiving the reward, you must complete five Red Bronze missions issued by the Alliance within one year of advancing to the Red Bronze rank, two Silver missions within three years of advancing to the Silver rank, and one Gold mission after advancing to the Gold Spiritual rank.
Each mission will have corresponding rewards, and you can also earn internal alliance points, which can be used to exchange for rare resources.
The conditions are not harsh.
If you don't want to, you can exchange it for a large sum of money and buy a pet yourself.
Even so, Lu Yu could accept it, after all, the first Beast Tamer is the foundation of a Beast Tamer and is extremely important.
but……
This is Obuchi City!
In terms of infrastructure, troop numbers, economy, and level of development, it is a near-first-tier city in the entire alliance, second only to the fourteen first-tier cities, and below them are hundreds of second-tier cities.
The reason it's called this isn't some bizarre reason like some powerful figure being named Zheng Dayuan or Xu Dayuan, but rather because it's located at the critical point between the human ecosystem and the monster ecosystem.
Dayuan!
A massive rift valley, of unknown length, almost divides the world in two.
On the other side lies the monster ecosystem, where countless extraordinary life forms are scattered like stars, living in groups and giving rise to numerous magical ecological realms.
Legend has it that at the bottom of the Great Abyss, there is a connection to the Abyss Dimension. Because of the instability of space, void creatures occasionally wander in, and even the spirit world sometimes connects to reality here. In such a chaotic place, it is natural that a large number of evil god cults that have been driven out of human society have taken up residence here...
It was practically a chaotic mess.
Although Da Yuan City and many surrounding cities are tens of thousands of miles away from the actual front line, and are protected by numerous satellite towns, and have not seen any major battles for decades, they seem to be safe.
However, if they are carrying out official missions, there is a high probability that they will approach the Great Abyss or eliminate the organization of evil god believers.
Although danger may be accompanied by opportunity, but...
That's too unstable!
Another issue is that the gold badges are usually the spoils of war from special expeditions in the wilderness or from destroying evil god cults.
Most of these pets are inclined towards the evil side, and some are even familiars born from the corruption of evil god power.
After testing, those without major problems will be kept, while minor problems will be ignored.
It possesses great power, but its spirituality is unstable, making it prone to distortion or backlash.
Not safe.
However, most people wouldn't care about these things. Being able to obtain a beast with the potential to lead is already a great thing, so how could they be greedy?
Lu Yu wasn't a pretentious person, but because of the "Forbidden Sun," he needed several months to recuperate and was unable to complete his official mission.
So I'll start with what's around me and see if I can use the Eye of Truth to accumulate capital, and then get a beast with the potential to lead the pack as my first beast.
Once you're strong enough, you can use the Golden Medal to exchange for a second or third Beast Tamer.
If your initial accumulation fails, then decisively redeem your funds.
As it turned out, he completed the Peach Pig Breeding Manual in just three months, giving him leverage in negotiations with the school.
However, it will take several more months for the number of Peach Pigs to double, and even then, it's not certain that they will be able to exchange them for a Commander-level pet.
In particular, the school's resources mainly consist of secret realm pets like Peach Blossom Village, and are mostly plant-based and animal-based.
If he wants to get rid of the nightmare, he must find a pet that is cursed, mental, or dream-related.
As for spiritual instability... it's not a flaw at all for someone who has witnessed forbidden secrets without collapsing.
It would be good if pets didn't become corrupted by their own actions.
The reason for seeking out the student council president is that having connections within the system makes things easier; it allows access to the school's fast track, eliminating the need for advance appointments and waiting, thus saving one or two weeks of time.
After a long silence, a message arrived.
[Student Council President: Aren't you going to raise pigs anymore?] Lu Yu's face stiffened. If he didn't know the other person's personality, he would definitely think that this was a mockery.
That's a peach pig.
This is no ordinary pig!
The弼马温 (Bima Wen) is not just an ordinary horse breeder; he can also appoint fairies!
[Moya: Hmm.]
This time, Lu Yu waited for five minutes without receiving a reply.
Could it be that you don't want to help?
Lu Yu was relieved about this, after all, he and the student council president were just ordinary colleagues, so it was normal for the other party not to want to help.
"Looks like I'll have to go see the principal myself..."
Lu Yu got up as he pondered, when suddenly a strong wind raged, whipping up sand and dust.
He subconsciously looked up and saw a white-haired, red-eyed girl descending from the sky, with vampire demon wings flapping behind her as she slowly landed until her black leather shoes lightly touched the ground.
Her tall and shapely figure, revealed during the process, was simply perfect. The white shirt hugged her proud curves, and her cleavage was faintly visible. The gray plaid pleated skirt hugged her hips, which looked like a delicious peach.
Her long, slender legs were encased in white calf stockings, straight and delicate, almost glowing white, shimmering in the sunlight.
However, beneath such a sexy exterior, the girl's perfectly sculpted features, as if crafted by the Creator, possess an icy indifference.
After landing, the pink bat wings behind her shrank, eventually turning into a large purple eyeball with little devil wings and a black inverted triangle tail, floating beside the girl.
However, it doesn't look scary at all; instead, it looks like a flying, big-eyed doll.
However, the Abyss Demon Eye looked unhappy and instead watched Lu Yu warily, like a farmer guarding a cabbage field watching a badger stealing vegetables!
Lu Yu's Eye of Truth quietly opened.
【Abyss Demon Eye】
[Attribute: Spirit/Abyss]
[Strength: Elite Peak]
[Racial Potential: High Commander]
[Skills: Insight, Mental Shock, High-Temperature Ray, Petrification Ray, Fear Ray, Eye of Intimidation]
[Introduction: Possess a spirit-type pet; after possession, you can gain the ability to fly.]
Abyss species, a unique product of the Eye Demon's ecological niche, reproduces through the dreams of Eye Demons or other demons. They dislike living in groups, are brutal and powerful, and require a large amount of Abyss Demonic Insects and spiritually imbued flesh and blood for proper breeding. They cannot resist sour food.
[Evolution Path: Eye Demon Servant (Requires materials...) Evil Eye Demon (Requires materials...) Rare Evolution - Eye Demon Tyrant (Requires materials...)...]
Not only are the relevant attributes displayed, but more than a dozen evolution paths are also listed, including the top-tier Eye Demon Tyrant.
However, he can only see the general outline now. To see it clearly, he would need to consume a lot of spiritual power, enough to drain him dry.
Therefore, we still need to improve our strength.
However, besides that, the Eye of Truth also revealed an interesting piece of knowledge: Abyss Eye materials can be used to make skill concoctions.
After taking it, you will gain the special skill [Global Vision], which gives your pet a 360° field of vision without blind spots.
That's an amazing combat skill!
Mom no longer has to worry about me being ambushed!
However, the specific method requires the use of the Secret Food Inheritance, which can only be unlocked after contracting the first Beast Tamer.
This made Lu Yu even more excited about the future features of the Key of Truth.
Lu Yu looked at the Abyss Eye Demon again, and he felt that this was not an abyss demon at all, but a walking treasure chest monster!
It is extremely powerful, possessing four innate racial talent ray skills, and the remaining skills are all mental skills, covering a wide range of attacks. In addition, with the potential of a high-level commander, it has a great chance to become the dominant creature of the Morning Star class in the future.
If you don't find a suitable pet this time, you can ask it for help to ward off the nightmare.
I'm craving it...
"hiss!"
The Abyss Eye Demon floating beside the girl suddenly felt a chill down its spine, sensing that it was being watched by something dangerous.
But there were no enemies approaching within my field of vision!
Could it be that it can become invisible?
Thinking of this, the big-eyed creature couldn't help but move a little closer to its owner.
This isn't cowardice, it's just caution!
Lu Yu also felt that his gaze was too intense, and reluctantly shifted his eyes from the Abyss Demon Eye, kindly reminding him:
"President, you shouldn't wear a skirt when you're flying; it's easy to expose yourself!"
After he finished speaking, the room fell silent.
The white-haired girl looked down at the ground where there were no toes, pondered for a moment, then picked up the two hems of her skirt with both hands, pulled them up, and asked expressionlessly:
"Is it pretty?"
