Chapter 53: The Bloodthirsty Little Skeleton
In the end.
Following Su Ping recommendation, the Fan brothers took some pet food they needed and spent 67,000 coins.
That amount of money is converted into 670 energy points automatically.
“Master, may I know your surname?”
“Su.”
"Sir. Su, when can we go?”
Fan Yujing was more concerned about finding the pets of his teammates than the precious pet food he had just bought.
Su Ping did not answer this question directly. Instead, he answered with another question, "How long is it day and night in space cracks?"
Since it was an unknown world, the alternation between day and night would be different from the one on the blue planet. Perhaps, it will happen during the day in the space crack while at night on the blue planet.
It's common. For example, consider the Chaotic Realm of the Undead. Su Ping had never seen the sun there.
"What?"
Fan Yujing was surprised by this question.
Su Ping had to become a professional because he noticed this.
Only senior explorers who would enter and exit the space crack would pay attention to such details.
The time difference may seem like a small problem, but it can be very important to the daily schedule of some Astral Pets!
The majority of Astral Pets from the demon family would hide during the day and come out at night. At night, such Astral Pets will be more aggressive and bloodthirsty!
Previously, when Su Ping was hesitant, Fan Yujing still doubted him. However, at that moment, Fan Yujing felt that he had underestimated the owner of this store.
A person who could break his arm easily was stronger. How could Su Ping not be afraid of space cracks?
“Space invoice just found. We have not registered any changes that exist between day and night,” Fan Yujing admitted.
Su Ping said, “Can you ask your teammates to wait there and guard at the entrance? We can enter at once when daylight arrives on the other side. ”
Fan Yujing nodded, but at the same time he still had a question, “What if it takes a long time for that day to arrive? Shouldn't we wait for a few days?”
Su Ping replied in a low voice, "We'll leave no later than tonight."
Su Ping was also unwilling to wait that long. They had to take action overnight if they could not wait for that day to arrive at that space crack. Otherwise, if they delay their actions for too long, the lost Astral Pets can be killed and their search will fail.
"Sure," Fan Yujing immediately agreed.
The point is to leave no later than the following night, or the chance of finding a teammate's pet will be small.
"Go away. Come to this address to wait for me at 10:00 tonight.” Su Ping found a pen to write down an address near his home and handed it to Fan Yujing.
Fan Yujing picked it up and read the note. "certain. Let me go back and get ready.”
Su Ping nodded. "Of course."
As the siblings were about to pass through the door, Su Ping immediately stopped them, "Wait."
"Yes?" Fan Yujing turned around in surprise.
"Are you not going to buy more?"
“…”
After the two of them were expelled, Su Ping looked at the energy points he had gathered. Calculating what was left of before, he had a total of over 700 energy points.
“We are looking for a pet from the fire family with an advanced bloodline, the Fire Tail Blood Fox. Unfortunately, the Fire Potion had already sold out. The only thing left is 'Fire Dragon Fruit'.”
Su Ping took out a bottle of Fire Dragon Fruit from the shelf. There were eight pieces in it and each one was worth over 300 coins. This is the kind of food that is favored by pets of the fire family. The fruit can increase the density of the fire element inside the pet and increase the strength of attacks involving fire.
To complete the task, he had to use the Fire Dragon Fruit as bait.
He tried hard to calm his sick heart. Su Ping placed the Fire Dragon Fruit into his storage room. Then, he went to the pet room and cast an identification spell on the small, sound-asleep Skeleton.
The Bloodthirsty Small Skeletons
Property: the devil family pet
Rank: third rank
Talent: Below average
Powered Abilities: Regeneration, Life Corpse Slavery, Intermediate Saberplay, Puppet, Rotting Meat, Darkening, Deadly Roars
Compared to when they returned from the Chaotic Realm of the Undead, there were some changes to the interface of the Little Skeleton.
His rank has been raised. When they returned from the Chaotic Realm of the Undead, Little Skeleton was at the top of the second rank. It had already reached the third rank at the moment.
His combat strength had increased to 7.8 from 7.4, which implied that the Little Skeleton could be compared to a pet in the top position of the seventh rank.
However, his talent rank dropped from above average to below average.
But more notable was the addition of "Blood Thirst" in front of the Little Skeleton name.
Each piece of change was related to a single item, a treasure worth 15 million coins, a Blood Bead!
This Blood Bead was still hovering within the skull of the Little Skull but its size had shrunk. The Little Skeleton had absorbed most of the Blood Beads. This was the reason for the increase in rank, combat power, and constitution. Small Skeletons have more potential. It evolved from an ordinary Skeleton-Pet into a Bloodthirsty Skeleton-Pet!
Among all the skeletons, the bloodthirsty skeleton was a pet with a mid-level bloodline. That being said, among all mid rank Astral Pets, bloodthirsty skeletons were at the bottom and even adult skeletons would only have fourth rank combat power.
However, compared to the original average skeletal type, the bloodthirsty type of skeleton was much better.
This could explain something.
The Little Skeleton had become more talented but its combat strength had not increased significantly. Hence, among his peers, the talent of the Small Framework could only be judged below average.
Of course, his comrades were not ordinary skeletons, but superior bloodthirsty skeletons.
Among all the bloodthirsty skeletons born since the beginning of the chaos, what the Little Bloodthirsty Skeleton possessed could only be considered below average.
Fortunately, since that quest had been completed, even a drop in talent rankings would not affect Su Ping.
After all, the Little Skeleton had absorbed enough energy from the Blood Bead, completely transforming its bloodline into a Skeleton King. Given his newly starting combat power was different from such a constitutional overhaul, it was understandable that his talent level would be lower.
"Little friend, it's time to wake up."
Su Ping woke up the Small Skeleton.
Several red glints shot out from Little Skeleton's empty eye sockets as he regained consciousness. The Little Skeleton sat down and looked at Su Ping in a daze.
Su Ping told Little Skeleton to leave the grooming cage, then he took it to the store and closed the shutter door.
Su Ping said in his mind, "The cultivation field window."
Yes, he wanted to pay a visit to the cultivation plane. But, he would not train the Little Skeleton. His true goal was to give the Little Skeleton enough time to absorb the Blood Bead.
After all, a day in the field of cultivation was only an hour in the real world.
He had more than half a day before the meeting at 10:00 that night, so he could stay on the cultivation plane for about a week.
A week of maintenance with the Blood Bead would improve the constitution and power of the Little Skeleton.
Given the current status of the Little Skeleton, upgrading its constitution would be much better than finding an advanced cultivation plane to fight.
After all, Little Skeleton had almost reached the limit of his potential when fighting in the Chaotic Realm of the Undead. Ordinary combat and death did not necessarily increase the Little Skeleton's combat power in the short term.
Moreover, if they were to engage in a fight, the Blood Bead on the Little Skeleton's skull would have to be removed, or the Blood Bead would have disappeared the moment the Little Skeleton died. That would delay the absorption of the Blood Bead.
Imminent.
Su Ping found the low-level cultivation plane he had visited the last time, Space Meteorite Region 1002.
The cost of entry is just one energy point.
Su Ping chose that cultivation plane without hesitation.
The plane had little danger. Once they got there, he could summon the Little Skull back to his pet room and then enjoy seven days on the plane. Plus, he could collect some pet food.
Even if he used the 30 deaths that came for free as rewards from the system, he could use some energy points to buy more. The price is only one-tenth of the price of the entrance ticket.
Time pass.
The seven-day journey on the cultivation plane passed in an instant.
Deep in the night, Su Ping reappeared at the store. He returned with unbrushed hair and a dirty face after seven days in the field of cultivation.
He sees time. It was 8:30 p.m.
Su Ping breathed a sigh of relief. He poured all the pet food in his storage room and asked the system to help him count and put it on the shelf. Then, she took a bath in the shop and then she quickly returned to her house.
