King of Beasts

Chapter 159: Evolution Secret Realm, Global Attention

Lu Ran was very attentive to the development of LuJia Village.

He asked Manager Ying beside him, “Does the Alliance have any supernatural beings that are deer species?”

“The kind with an initial species level of upper supernatural.”

“You want to bring them in for the beastmasters of LuJia Village as their second pet contract?” Ying turned her head.

“Yes.”

“You might as well just merge LuJia Village into Green Sea City and let them find suitable supernatural beings to contract there,” the cat scoffed.

“Contracting deer would make it seem like LuJia Village ‘has a divine deer in its heart,’ wouldn’t it?” Lu Ran smiled.

“What you said, I’ve also considered. My idea is that everyone’s team composition should be diversified.”

“For the development of LuJia Village, I plan to cultivate it in this way: First, using my identity as a Dragon Chef, I’ll find a group of beastmasters who are good at fighting and have them contract with snake species as their second pet, forming a Loong-type Jiao Dragon team.”

“One dog and one dragon, it’s somewhat similar to my own path.”

“Second, another group of beastmasters will develop their second pet towards support roles, such as healing and recovery.”

“In this way, when they form teams, their weaknesses won’t be too obvious. I think we can select a group of grass-type deer to send to LuJia Village for nurturing, serving as team mascots…”

“So, Manager Ying, are you not interested in cooperating on the revival of the divine deer?”

“You didn’t think I was bragging just now, did you? Actually, the divine deer…” Lu Ran was about to rope Manager Ying into helping him strengthen LuJia Village, but at that moment, Lu Ran’s phone suddenly rang.

He took out his phone and looked at the caller, somewhat surprised.

“Who is it?” Manager Ying was dissatisfied. Who was calling and interrupting Lu Ran?

“It’s Qingyi,” Lu Ran said.

“Pfft, Qingyi is what I call her. Do you call her that?” Manager Ying was angry.

Lu Ran chuckled, “I mean, your Qingyi.”

With that, Lu Ran answered the call. Gu Qingyi immediately said, “Lu Ran, when do you plan to enter the breakthrough secret realm?”

“What’s up?”

“Planning… maybe in a month?” Lu Ran estimated.

“A month? That means two months, right?” On the other end, Gu Qingyi shook her head and said, “Your pet beast has been at level 20 for a while now. What’s keeping you so busy? Enter the breakthrough secret realm as soon as possible!”

“Has something happened?” Lu Ran was surprised.

“Not long ago, a special public secret realm appeared in the Super Public Infinite City in Antarctica.”

“Only those with level 30 pet beasts can benefit there.”

“Huh?” Lu Ran was stunned. “What kind of public secret realm?”

Antarctica…

Previously, Antarctica had no permanent residents, only scientific researchers from around the world.

But now it’s different.

The Blue Star Beast Taming Alliance, a super beast taming organization composed of beast taming forces from various countries, has its headquarters in Antarctica.

And Antarctica’s Infinite City is naturally a public infinite city, with beast taming forces from various countries having their personnel stationed there.

Antarctica’s Infinite City is also known as the Super Public Infinite City, as it is indeed the area with the most public secret realms.

“It’s a public secret realm with no level restrictions. I’ve sent you the details. Take a look.”

Lu Ran opened the message.

[Name]: Evolution Secret Realm

[Entry Level]: No restrictions

[Introduction]: Under the starry sky, this is an area extremely suitable for the evolution of supernatural beings. The Evolution Secret Realm periodically erupts with a large amount of evolution energy. If a supernatural being undergoes an evolution during this eruption, it can unlock greater potential.

During the eruption of evolution energy, the ten pet beasts with the highest potential post-evolution will receive the Starry Blessing and gain additional power.

[Entry Fee]: 100,000 crystal coins

[Next Evolution Energy Eruption Countdown]: 44 days

“Evolution Secret Realm???” Lu Ran was taken aback. “There’s such a secret realm?”

“Yes, it’s indeed quite peculiar,” Gu Qingyi said. “A Legendary Secret Realm, an Evolution Secret Realm… who knows what strange secret realms Infinite City will come up with next.”

“Now you understand why I want you to enter the breakthrough secret realm as soon as possible.”

“If you enter the breakthrough secret realm now, and come out a month later, given the accumulation of your pet beast, reaching level 30 before the evolution energy eruption in the Evolution Secret Realm shouldn’t be difficult.”

“After all, your Dragon Lizard has consumed so many rare and exquisite resources, its nutrition is already more than sufficient.”

“Taking advantage of this Evolution Secret Realm to transform it into a dragon would be an excellent choice.”

“Didn’t you obtain the dragon king trait in the Legendary Secret Realm? If you fuse it with your sudden death king and combine it with the Evolution Secret Realm’s boost, it might evolve into something extraordinary.”

“With the dragon king bloodline trait and the Loong-type boost, your sudden death king should easily secure a spot in the top ten for potential evolution, even among the first-generation, second-generation, and third-generation pets from various countries.”

“Free rewards are not to be missed, right?” Gu Qingyi laughed on the other end of the phone.

“Once the Evolution Secret Realm opens this time, the next opening date is uncertain. If you miss it, you might have to wait a long time.”

“Anyway, your sudden death king is already prepared with the evolution trait and resources. I suggest that General Ha, your third pet, can wait for the second opening of the Evolution Secret Realm to evolve, to be better prepared.”

“Your sudden death king, however, should seize this opportunity and aim for one of those ten spots.”

“By evolving your pet beasts in batches in the Evolution Secret Realm, you maximize the chance for each one to receive the Starry Blessing.”

Gu Qingyi analyzed for Lu Ran.

“Indeed, evolving them separately would be better, ensuring each pet beast has the highest chance of receiving the Starry Blessing,” Lu Ran nodded.

After all, trying to have General Ha, the sudden death king, and the dark crow evolve in the same batch and all secure top ten potential would be challenging. They would not only compete with others but also with each other. Staggering their evolutions would be more strategic.

“I originally wanted to wait for that pet beast egg from the Freshman Tournament to hatch, take care of it for a while, and then challenge the breakthrough secret realm,” Lu Ran explained. “The main reason is that I want the egg to see me first when it hatches.”

Of course, another reason was that he didn’t want to challenge the breakthrough secret realm right after the Legendary Secret Realm. He wanted to rest for a while!

Gu Qingyi spoke up, “Hey, it doesn’t matter when that pet beast egg hatches. You can give the egg to Manager Ying. It can delay the hatching time while ensuring the egg continuously absorbs external nutrients, so its development won’t be affected.”

Manager Ying, who had been eavesdropping, couldn’t hold back any longer. It had initially been intrigued by the Evolution Secret Realm, but this conversation was too much.

Come on, talking as if it was some egg-hatching master.

It’s true that delaying the egg’s hatching time is possible, but it requires a lot of resources!

“Manager Ying also has expertise in breeding?” Lu Ran was surprised.

“As an intelligence dealer, of course, it knows a bit of everything,” Gu Qingyi laughed.

“I understand. Thank you, Dr. Gu, for the information.” Lu Ran rubbed his head. He had planned to slack off for another month, but now he had to advance his schedule to challenge the breakthrough secret realm.

“Manager Ying is with you, right? Message delivered. Let it help you plan. I’ll hang up now.”

“Okay.” Lu Ran ended the call with Dr. Gu and looked at Manager Ying.

With a pleading look, he turned to Manager Ying.

“Manager Ying, you heard it. The Evolution Secret Realm is opening for the first time. I must seize this opportunity.”

“During this period, I need you to use your magic to take extra care of this egg.”

“Apart from that, I also need you to help look after LuJia Village…”

“Great, now I not only have to be your bodyguard but also a babysitter for your pet beast. And now, you want me to take care of an entire village?” Manager Ying huffed, feeling Lu Ran was going too far.

Lu Ran earnestly said, “I have an important piece of information. After hearing it, you might change your mind, Manager Ying.”

“Oh?” Manager Ying was puzzled.

“What if I told you that helping take care of LuJia Village could help us quickly find the legendary item, The Stone of the Other Shore?”

“What do you mean?” Manager Ying frowned.

“To find The Stone of the Other Shore, there are two key conditions. First, you need a powerful necromantic pet beast. Second, you need a part of the death dragon’s body.”

“The second condition is the most difficult.”

“After all, the death dragon is one of the Four Great Creator Divine Dragons of the Star-Moon Continent, a top-level legend.”

“However, we can take a different approach. What if we find the life dragon, which is also one of the Four Great Creator Divine Dragons?”

“What exactly are you getting at?”

“The divine deer is one of the three legendary retainers of the life dragon and is also an overlord species! Awakening it could likely help us find The Stone of the Other Shore, or at least bring us closer to the truth,” Lu Ran analyzed.

“Wait a minute!” Manager Ying was shocked.

“What did you just say???”

“You heard me. The divine deer is one of the three legendary retainers of the life dragon. Where did you get this information?”

Lu Ran whistled and summoned the Flame Sprite, fire dancing on his fingertips.

“I took a trip to the Star-Moon Continent. Of course, I seriously investigated the intelligence about the death dragon. While I didn’t find much about the death dragon, I did gather some information about the life dragon.”

“Don’t worry, the source is Flame Dragon King, the ace combat pet of Yan Sizhen, an 80-plus level upper overlord species and legendary creature. It’s reliable.”

“Uh…” Manager Ying’s expression shifted, then, with a fierce look, it swung its kitty punch at Lu Ran’s face!

“Such crucial intelligence, and you’re only telling me now?!”

Lu Ran caught the kitty punch and said, “Earlier, there was no information about the divine deer, so this intelligence would have been useless. But now it’s different. With the Power of Faith, we have hope of finding the divine deer. This information has naturally become valuable.”

Manager Ying fell into deep thought. The divine deer is actually a legendary retainer of the life dragon???

Is the divine deer truly a legendary creature?

Could it be that the Star-Moon Continent is indeed the ancient era of the blue star?

Otherwise, why would the divine deer appear on the blue star?

The death dragon… the life dragon… Manager Ying sensed that there were indeed significant secrets hidden within. In addition to running an intelligence organization to make money and awaken its main body, it was also driven by a deep curiosity about the world’s secrets.

After a moment of hesitation, Manager Ying decided it had to help Lu Ran with this task. Finding the divine deer was indeed crucial to uncovering more information about the Four Great Creator Divine Dragons.

“Alright,” Manager Ying nodded in contemplation. It realized that using Faith to awaken the divine deer would be a massive, long-term project.

At that moment, Lu Ran, glancing at his phone, noticed that news about the Evolution Secret Realm had started to flood in!

[Evolution Secret Realm! The era where every third-generation beastmaster has a sovereign species pet beast may be upon us!]

Currently, skilled third-generation beastmasters have already evolved sovereign species pet beasts, but some third-generation beastmasters only possess commander species. This Evolution Secret Realm is a boon for those third-generation beastmasters looking to develop new pets.

They might seize this opportunity to evolve a sovereign species pet beast in one go.

Similarly, some first and second-generation beastmasters, who are nurturing new pets and haven’t undergone significant evolution, can also take advantage of this experience to increase their new pets’ potential. This secret realm is essentially a beneficial one for beastmasters of all generations.

At present, most discussions about the Evolution Secret Realm are focused on the first, second, and third generations. As for the fourth generation, their growth period has been too short. Few have likely managed to raise their pet beasts to level 30 by the time the Evolution Secret Realm opens.

After all, most frontline fourth-generation beastmasters are still strategizing for the level 1 Legendary Secret Realm. They probably won’t easily break through levels just for the Evolution Secret Realm, as missing the Legendary Secret Realm means a permanent miss, while the Evolution Secret Realm will always be there, whether they enter sooner or later.

Thus, only a few fourth-generation beastmasters, including Lu Ran, will be able to enter this Evolution Secret Realm, provided they quickly break through and elevate their pet beasts to level 30. Given the time constraints, it’s no wonder there’s little attention on this group.

[This Evolution Secret Realm may not reveal which beastmaster is the strongest, but it should show who excels the most in nurturing new pets.]

[The 10 pet beasts with the highest evolution potential will receive the Starry Blessing. I wonder what the Starry Blessing will be.]

[Do you think these 10 blessing spots will go to first-generation, second-generation, or third-generation new pets?]

[It depends on whose new pets have the greatest potential. I’m more interested in which countries’ beastmasters will claim these 10 spots.] The international forums were abuzz with discussions.
