“Witch Race Proclamation: Do not be alarmed. Those flying monsters are companion monsters currently being tamed. If you are interested, you may visit the Companion Pet Industrial Park in Typhon City in fifteen days to find a flying companion of your own. There is only one rule in the industrial park: no use of forced taming, enslavement, or charm skills. Violators will be executed on the spot.”
“Witch Race Proclamation: Do not be alarmed. Those flying monsters are companion monsters currently being tamed...”
“Witch Race Proclamation: Do not be alarmed. Those flying monsters are companion monsters currently being tamed...”
After receiving Lan Qingyou's instructions, Diana returned and sent out this message with her team.
They adopted the Supreme Council's method of saturated spamming.
After all, this was the only way to maintain a presence on the world channel; otherwise, your message would be scrolled off the screen in a split second.
Hmm...
“Companion flying monsters, huh? Interesting.”
“I thought it was something big, but they're just pets? Never mind then, haha.”
“Exactly. I'm a bit disappointed there's no monster siege to watch.”
“You said it. It would’ve been quite a show if those flying monsters fought the flying witches.”
“Alright, stop talking out of your asses.”
“You’re all talking a big game, but is that really what you’re thinking? I’m almost embarrassed to call you out.”
“You say it’s nothing, but you lot will be the ones running there the fastest in half a month.”
“I’ve seen too much, don’t you even think about lying to me.”
“...”
As expected, the Witch race's spamming immediately caught everyone's attention. Because the message was concise and direct, everyone understood what was happening right away.
Among the over seventeen billion people, there was no shortage of quick-witted, clever individuals. Almost as soon as Diana and the others posted the message, those confident in themselves began to ponder how they could obtain such a companion.
Though it wasn't certain, the proclamation mentioned 'flying monsters' without specifying a single type or category.
Did that mean one could potentially find anything that could fly there?
If that was the case, it was definitely a must-go.
After all, whether for support or combat, an extra companion always meant more combat power—especially one that could fly.
Are you kidding? The witches' familiars had long ceased to be a secret, and who didn't envy them?
If nothing else, the familiars used by those witches in the previous tournament had made everyone's hearts itch with desire.
This was especially true for the owl summoned by the Witch of the Tower.
It could fly, it was fast, it could interfere with the opponent's combat, and it could attack directly...
While it wasn't perfect, it was undoubtedly a competent helper. For rangers and lone wolves, the attraction was lethal.
“Wait! In fifteen days? Doesn't that mean we have to wait until after the New Year?”
Suddenly, a sharp-eyed observer spotted the catch.
“After the New Year?”
“Yeah, it’s been almost a year since we transmigrated.”
“...If you hadn't mentioned it, I would've almost forgotten!”
“The New Year... Why does that suddenly feel like such a distant concept?”
“It has been a year, after all.”
“True. I've been through so much this year. I've gone from a clueless college student with eyes full of pure stupidity to a qualified adventurer.”
“Hahahaha, God only knows what I’ve been through this past year.”
“I suddenly want to eat dumplings. Too bad there are no dumplings and no vinegar.”
“Aren't there forest elves? The food they make is pretty good. You can find it for sale online.”
“Oh, right.”
Because of Gu Xiaobei's presence as their Clan Leader, the forest elves were more fond of growing vegetables and breeding livestock than other elves.
“I haven't had roasted chicken or pizza in a long time either. If only there was pineapple pizza.”
“Where did this heretic come from? Is pineapple something you can eat with pizza?”
“Where did this originalist come from? I, Qiu Li, a high school freshman, don't need you telling me how to live my life.”
“Damn, I was just saying. Why are you so worked up?”
When someone pointed out that nearly a year had passed since transmigration, everyone finally snapped out of it.
A year on Blue Star didn't feel long or short.
It felt like you were changing clothes for the seasons before you even realized it.
But for these transmigrators, because every day was so 'fulfilling,' it felt as though a vast amount of time had passed.
Some people even found themselves on the verge of tears or staring blankly as they thought about what they had endured over the past year...
Pain, it was just too much pain.
Out of over twenty billion people, only seventeen billion and some remained.
Of the three billion or so who were gone, seventy to eighty percent had died during the first month or two of transmigration.
This was especially true during the initial mana tide, when many people's profile icons had vanished in rapid succession.
Many people's relatives and friends had died back then.
Thinking back, those events had happened over ten months ago, but looking at their current equipment and levels, everyone felt as if a lifetime had passed.
Regardless of how others felt, while Diana was busy posting the news, Lan Qingyou bid farewell to Ursula and returned to her own shelter.
Before leaving, she instructed Ursula to apply the medicine properly and to keep a meticulous record of the process.
This was clinical trial data; whether the product would sell well in the future depended on this.
After all, although the Adventurers' Guild now provided safe zones and people no longer had to struggle for survival as they once did, life was still tight.
For cosmetics and similar items to attract consumers, the quality had to be exceptional.
For example, like Gu Xiaobei's gourmet food, they needed some kind of attribute bonus.
After parting with Ursula, Lan Qingyou did not idle once she returned to her shelter.
Although she hadn't had much rest these past few days, she had a more important task to attend to now.
She needed to write an introductory guide for the flying monsters she had just seen, detailing their characteristics, attributes, and skills.
This way, when people came looking for companion pets in fifteen days, they could find the one that best suited their own attributes and talents.
It could be considered a very thoughtful gesture.
But being thoughtful was necessary.
After all, she was counting on this to make money and buy materials. If she couldn't even manage this much, what kind of alchemist would she be?
That was right.
Lan Qingyou was indeed seriously considering the business of selling flying monsters.
After all, with so many flying monsters, even if every member of the Witch race took one, there would still be plenty left over.
What was the Perching Giant Tree's branch?
It was a windfall from the heavens. If she didn't seize this opportunity, she would be doing a disservice to fate.
Of course, she wasn't interested in the money itself; she just liked to acquire more rare materials.
