Chapter 318: Chapter 180: Contract, the 3rd Pet_1

Next, Lu Ran, Gu Qingyi, and Manager Ying chatted for over an hour before Doctor Gu left satisfied.

By this time, the Weather Spirit had also woken up.

The speed of its energy recovery was indeed fast.

After greeting Manager Ying, Lu Ran began to take the Weather Spirit outside for training.

Before leaving the house, however, Lu Ran dressed himself up tightly.

After all, he was currently at the center of international attention.

"Li..."

The Weather Spirit curled up in a ball, staying in Lu Ran’s pocket, curiously looking at the outside sky and asking where they were going.

"To find a Crow."

"When we meet it, I’ll introduce you to all of our teammates," said Lu Ran.

"And lastly... we’ll see your combat strength."

"Li!" Carrying the Weather Spirit, Lu Ran was lost in thought on the way.

The current Weather Spirit was undoubtedly as pure as a blank canvas.

When it was an egg, he could casually have Manager Ying or the Dark Crow help out, but now...

Whether he left it with Manager Ying or Fang Lan, Lu Ran was obviously not at ease, for its character would definitely become distorted.

With the former, the character would be skewed, and with the latter, even its attribute might get twisted.

If the Weather Spirit were influenced by Fang Lan and wanted to evolve toward a Toxic Cloud, that would be troublesome.

Moreover, there were times when he had to enter Infinite City and couldn’t carry it with him. This was a dilemma.

If he left it alone in the outside world, Lu Ran would also feel uneasy.

"How about contracting the Weather Spirit first? The fourth Pet Beast, and then contract the Dark Crow?"

"Forget it, let’s contract the Dark Crow first. As for this little one, hmm! I’ll leave it with Manager Ying for now. Since the King of Sudden Death is now Level 30, I can enter the Level 2 Breakthrough Secret Realm at any time. As long as I can break through quickly and contract the Weather Spirit as soon as possible, it won’t spend much time with Manager Ying, so it definitely won’t become twisted."

Soon, having figured this out, Lu Ran arrived at Jade Mountain.

Then, he witnessed a scene that rendered him speechless.

The Gun Intent girl, Summer, with a spear in hand, was skewering grilled fish, while in the woods, a row of snakes lined up one by one to take part in the fish distribution operation.

Next to them, the Dark Crow and the Fire Snake were maintaining order, "cultivating" the Green Sea Snake army.

"G..Great King???"

However, when they noticed Lu Ran approaching, the Dark Crow on the tree was shocked and almost rubbed its eyes.

After confirming it was Lu Ran, the Dark Crow instantly teared up and exclaimed, "Great King, I’ve missed you so much, you’re finally back."

"Great King?" The voice of the Dark Crow also reached Summer, who suddenly turned her head and indeed spotted Lu Ran, wearing a hat and mask, walking towards them.

"You’ve cultivated Gun Intent?" Upon arrival, Lu Ran noticed the huge improvement in Summer’s Gun Intent. She was in her normal state, not maintaining a Combined form, but the long spear she was holding constantly exuded the Sun Intent.

Her progress was faster than Lu Ran had imagined; she had managed to use Gun Intent without relying on the strength of her Pet Beast.

To know, Lu Ran had only managed to do this with the help of Super Beast Mimicry, while Summer had relied solely on her Propriety Knife Method and her own talent. Lu Ran felt her talent with weapons was only higher, not lower, than his own.

"Yes."

"You’re back, huh?" Summer looked towards Lu Ran and breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "Judging from the time, it’s about right."

"Since you’re back, I’ll return to school tomorrow. Anyway, thanks for all your guidance," she continued.

"I’ve mastered Gun Intent!"

Summer was truly grateful, thankful for Lu Ran’s teaching of the Propriety Knife Method as well as for the "Dark Crow", because without the Dark Crow asking her to grill for all the extraordinary beings in the city, her Gun Intent would not have progressed so quickly...

She had thought that in a month’s time, she would at most maintain proficiency in the Propriety Knife Method and in expressing her intent outwardly, but instead, she had worked hard and learned independent Gun Intent through sheer effort.

But honestly, having grilled for a month, she had had enough and didn’t want to touch Culinary Art for a short time.

"Ga." The Dark Crow looked at chef Summer and said, "You’ve been very hardworking!"

Lu Ran also noticed, and he looked at the Dark Crow, which had reached Level 25. It seemed that the resources he had left, combined with Summer’s Dark Cooking Intent, had brought significant benefits to the Dark Crow.

"Thanks," Lu Ran replied with a slight smile. "It’s been over a month since you left school, time to get back to classes..."

"How’s your Breakthrough Secret Realm coming along?" Summer asked.

"Hmm... haven’t you seen the news?" Lu Ran saw she was dripping with sweat and figured she must’ve been grilling the whole time, probably not catching up on the news.

"Just look it up on your phone, and you’ll know."

Summer: ???

"Then I’m off, I’ll go back and take a look," said Summer, likely realizing Lu Ran was there to see the Dark Crow. She decided to head back to Lu Ran’s house first to take a shower.

Besides... what breakthrough experience in the Secret Realm, so mysterious.

A little while later, Summer had left.

On her way down the mountain, she took out her phone.

Following Lu Ran’s indication, she began to search for Lu Ran’s Breakthrough Secret Realm-related information...

Then... she stopped mid-way up the mountain, lost in thought.

......

At the same time, Lu Ran looked at the Dark Crow, the Fire Snake, and its dozens of followers and said:

"Fire Snake, you guys go ahead and leave."

"Sssss—" The Fire Snake nodded, and with a call, the ground full of Poisonous Snakes crawled away.

Soon, only the Dark Crow, Lu Ran, and the Weather Spirit were left.

Lu Ran took out the Contract Card and looked at the Dark Crow, and seeing the card, the Dark Crow was visibly excited.
