Chapter 356: Chapter 245 Red Rose Magic Academy_2

However, this sequence would not be maintained till the end; factors such as strength, terrain and endurance all impacted the speed of Chocobos. Especially the terrain, different Chocobos excelled on different terrains; some preferred running on grasslands, some on sands, while others with good endurance excelled at uphill climbs.

After passing the first bend, they entered a complicated section of uphill and downhill terrains. The order of the Chocobos was immediately mixed up. They chased each other, each having its moment of leading.

Only Lin Hai’s Chocobo consistently lagged behind. Despite making his Chocobo gallop as hard as possible, it still kept falling further and further behind the main group.

"This isn’t going well...."

Seeing that only a quarter of the track was left, Lin Hai started to get anxious. He slid out his magic wand from his sleeve and quietly cast a ’Light Body Skill’.

A surge of blue magic power rushed into his body, and the Chocobo suddenly felt much lighter, as if released from binds. With a swoosh, it darted out, overtaking the two lagging behind in the blink of an eye.

"Go, Little Red!"

The nun yelled enthusiastically. Encouraged by its rider, the Chocobo ran even more vigorously, its legs moving so fast they were a blur. As it entered the final stage, it kept accelerating.

At the front of the track, the leading three Chocobos were getting closer and closer to the finish line.

meters...100 meters... 50 meters...

However, just as they were about to cross the finish line, a red figure suddenly flashed past the three birds, crossing the finish line first by a hair’s breadth, thereby becoming the winner.

"Chirp chirp chirp..."

The other Chocobos also crossed the finish line one after another, but none of them seemed to want to rest. They all gathered around Little Red, flapping their wings and chirping incessantly, apparently unwilling to accept the result.

Facing the questioning and provocation of the other Chocobos, Little Red didn’t mind, and raised his head high, like a victorious general.

"Hahaha, don’t rush, there’s plenty for everyone."

Knowing he cheated, Lin Hai comforted the Chocobos one by one, took out more canned food from his bag and handed one can per bird. Only then did the Chocobos calm down and start to enjoy their food.

"This is so much fun!" After watching the whole process, Little Ya couldn’t help exclaiming.

"It’s indeed pretty good, such races can be developed into a unique feature of our shop in the future. If the venue is more official, it will greatly attract customers." Lin Xue said.

"Yes, very good."

Mu You also nodded with satisfaction, his attention focused on the video replay in his hands: "We have the material for the promotional video."

At this time, Lin Hai also ran over from afar, exclaiming excitedly: "Master, this race is fantastic! You must launch it!"

"Of course." Mu You smiled and nodded, then looked at the ground ahead and said, "What we lack now is a professional track, this venue is too rough, a bit embarrassing...."

"A track, right..."

Upon hearing this, Lin Hai contemplated for a moment and then quickly nodded in agreement: "No problem, leave it to me, Master. I remember there’s a nearly bankrupt racecourse in the land acquisition project of the Commerce Union. I’ll go back and contact Master Huang to purchase their equipment as well, then offer it to your shop as a track."

"Free? Are you sure?" Mu You was a bit surprised. The equipment of a racecourse, including the starting gate, fences, pavement materials, high-precision follow-up camera tracks and timers, fiber yawns, LED display screens, etc., might not seem much, but it would cost hundreds of thousands to procure them all.

"This bit of investment is nothing, consider it a donation. I must say, I am very optimistic about your shop, I feel like it will be a big hit in the future. If you weren’t private, I would have invested." Lin Hai replied.

"If you really think so highly of us, is there a discount for pet food?" Mu You joked.

"Look at what you are saying, Master. If your shop really becomes popular, there won’t be any discounts. The pet food will be supplied for free and we will even pay you for exclusive endorsements." Lin Hai laughed.

After speaking, Lin Hai waved goodbye and drove away in a hurry. He seemed quite busy.

Mu You took a breath and looked back at the backpack space.

An unexpected sponsorship solved the issue of food and track, but they had to take care of the leftover venue themselves.

Mu You simply went online and bought a bunch of things; material for laying tracks, various animal equipment, adornments, living facilities, toys, decoration materials for the venue and so on....

As he runs a pet shop, Mu You was quite familiar with these things, and after purchasing them all, he finally managed to complete the order.

After calculating the total cost, he had spent a whopping 560,000! He couldn’t have imagined spending so much in the past.

Even Little Ya was taken aback by the total cost and exclaimed, ’Boss, you are really lavish.’

She had been with the pet shop as it grew, even during its most prosperous period under Mu You’s parents, the shop managed to just make ends meet. When it came to expanding the scale, they would consider carefully and budget meticulously. Unlike the present, they would never dare to invest so lavishly.

They were busy till evening, and after Lin Xue and Little Ya got off work and went home, Mu You went back to the shop to edit the video footage he had shot during the day.
