【Name: Moling Dragon】
【Attribute: Dragon + Poison】
【Level: Junior stage (45%)】
【Skills: Poison Fang (Proficient 12%), Venom Spray (Proficient 12%), Glare (Entry level 75%), Dragon Starfall (Entry level 0%)】
【Traits: Counter-Poison (Entry level 30%), Poison Scales (Entry level 37%), Scorn (Arcane ∞)】
After glancing at the Moling Dragon's information, Liu Yi secretly marveled at how powerful Dragon-type pets and the golden Destiny Card truly were.
Compared to the last trait, both Counter-Poison and Poison Scales were merely decent.
The effect of the Counter-Poison trait was immunity to Poison-type skill damage, and it would restore stamina when attacked by Poison-type skills.
Poison Scales, on the other hand, had a chance to inflict the [Poisoned] status on opponents it came into contact with.
Dragon Starfall, an A-rank skill, was a high-power Dragon-type area-of-effect skill.
It was indeed unheard of for a pet to naturally possess an A-rank skill at the Junior stage.
However, remembering that Ziyue had also learned an A-rank skill at the Junior stage, Liu Yi felt it wasn't so bad.
But.
The Scorn trait, reaching Arcane level proficiency directly, was truly powerful.
The Scorn trait granted complete immunity to mental suppression effects such as [Dragon's Might], [Intimidation], and [Oppression], and also prevented forced status conditions like reduced Attack/Defense/Speed, [Flinching], and [Fear] from taking effect.
In other words, any skill that would debuff the Moling Dragon would be ineffective against it; opponents could only clash head-on.
Liu Yi opened her eyes, meeting the Moling Dragon's gaze.
She thought for a moment and said, "Speaking of which, I need to give you a name."
"Bingbing!"
Ziyue came closer, chirping excitedly, as if asking, Should we name it after its eyes, like me?
Liu Yi smiled and patted Ziyue's head. "You actually guessed it right."
"Bingbing~"
Ziyue rubbed against her hand, looking smug.
Liu Yi looked at the Moling Dragon. "How about I call you Chiying? Because your eyes are as beautiful as two burning crimson jewels."
"Moling."
Chiying nodded in agreement.
After the excitement wore off, Ziyue's sleepiness returned.
Seeing Ziyue's state, Liu Yi said, "Let's go, we'll head in and sleep first. Tomorrow, after we say goodbye to the Little Bell Deer and the Phantom Dream Tapir, we'll leave the Secret Realm."
After entering the tent, Liu Yi lay down on her side, cradling the Blaze Lion's pet egg in her arms, and went to sleep.
Ziyue walked behind Liu Yi, lay down on her side, and slept back-to-back with her.
Chiying, meanwhile, loosely coiled around Liu Yi's neck, then rested its head against Liu Yi's cheek and fell asleep.
...
On the morning of the seventh day inside the Secret Realm.
Liu Yi took out a latent energy pill and handed it to Ziyue, then placed a Poison Honey Fruit in front of Chiying. "You eat this Poison Honey Fruit first. Once we're out, I can make your latent energy pills."
"Moling."
Chiying nodded, obediently eating the Poison Honey Fruit.
After packing everything, Liu Yi put on her backpack, carried the Blaze Lion's pet egg, rode on Ziyue, and had Chiying coiled around her neck.
After bidding farewell to the Little Bell Deer by the lake and the Phantom Dream Tapir in the Senluo Dream Tapir territory, Liu Yi found a large tree and sat down, leaning against its lower trunk.
Then, with the Blaze Lion's pet egg in her left arm and Ziyue in her right, she had Chiying, still around her neck, press the button on her silver bracelet with its tail.
Since it wasn't yet time for automatic teleportation, Liu Yi planned to press the button to leave early.
However, she wasn't sure where she would be teleported to. If she appeared standing on the original chair, it would honestly be a bit socially embarrassing.
Because there were quite a few surveillance cameras in that room.
So, it was best to try and maintain the posture she had on the chair when teleporting out.
Liu Yi closed her eyes, feeling Chiying's tail gently press the button on the silver bracelet.
A familiar hum sounded in her ears, and a sensation of weightlessness instantly enveloped her.
Liu Yi tightened her arms; the Blaze Lion's pet egg in her embrace emanated a warm aura, Ziyue's fur brushed against her arm, and Chiying's scales pressed close to her neck.
Three distinct sensations, yet all from her own pets.
Light gradually enveloped them, and the surrounding scenery once again began to twist and blur.
When her vision cleared again, Liu Yi found herself indeed back on the previous chair.
The blue light screen in front of her still emitted a faint glow.
"Welcome back, Student Liu Yi."
Gu Zheng's voice came from the right. He stood by the door, his gaze sweeping back and forth between Liu Yi and the pets on her.
Liu Yi nodded, then carefully stood up from the chair, making sure the Blaze Lion egg in her arms wouldn't slip.
Ziyue lightly jumped off the chair, shook her fur, and gracefully swished her two tails.
Chiying remained coiled around Liu Yi's neck, merely raising its head slightly, its crimson eyes calmly observing Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng looked at Chiying and asked, "Is this the pet you chose to contract in the Secret Realm?"
Liu Yi: "Yes."
Upon receiving Liu Yi's answer, Gu Zheng's gaze fell on the Blaze Lion's pet egg. "According to the rules, each Beast Tamer entering the Secret Realm can contract one pet to bring out. You have...?"
"It's a pet egg voluntarily gifted by the Blaze Lion tribe; it doesn't take up a contract slot," Liu Yi explained, repeating the Blaze Claw Lion's words. "They said people outside would understand."
Gu Zheng thought for a moment and said, "Please wait, I need to consult President Shen. Is that alright?"
"Go ahead," Liu Yi nodded.
Gu Zheng stepped aside and began contacting Shen Zhumei, reporting Liu Yi's situation and statement in detail.
Liu Yi, in good spirits, took out her phone, opened Beast Link, and uncharacteristically drafted a social media post.
Just as she was about to send it, her fingertip paused; it seemed she should ask first.
Meanwhile, Gu Zheng also received a reply from Shen Zhumei:
"I've seen it through surveillance. The pet egg in Liu Yi's arms is indeed a Blaze Lion. It's a pet egg from a Supreme-rank tribe, and this year, the King-rank Blazing Lion is guarding it. No one could forcibly take a young egg from their territory and emerge unharmed. She can leave."
Just as Gu Zheng was about to inform Liu Yi, Liu Yi approached him first.
"Excuse me, if I post something like this, it shouldn't count as spreading detailed information about the Myriad Realm Secret Realm, right?"
Gu Zheng heard Liu Yi's question, then looked at the phone screen she held out to him.
It was the Beast Link posting interface, displaying a single sentence:
"Thank you for the gifts of the Myriad Realm Secret Realm."
Gu Zheng's mouth twitched. He glanced at the pet coiled around Liu Yi's neck—one he didn't recognize, but which had dragon horns and was likely Dragon-type. Then he looked at the pet egg in Liu Yi's arms, voluntarily gifted by a Supreme-rank tribe with maximum racial potential, and finally, the two-tailed pet she had brought with her from the start.
He hadn't expected that he, a staff member of the Beast Tamer Association, would encounter two pets he didn't recognize at the same time.
He managed a strained smile and said, "No, it doesn't count. You can send this post."
