YM778.TV Chapter 9: Red Awl Fruit
Just as people are born able to eat, they must start with milk and gradually advance.
Skills progress from being beginner-level to proficient.
Beginner-level skills are less powerful and are typically newly mastered.
Lower-tier skills can generally be used once they reach the beginner level, but higher-tier skills might not always work at the beginner level due to insufficient proficiency.
Fire Fang is an intermediate-level skill. Ideally, the Fire Fang Dog’s Fire Fang should only be at the beginner level (2/100) and shouldn’t be used so easily.
But it managed to do so.
Qiao Sang speculated that perhaps as long as the Beast Tamer’s Codex displayed the Fire Fang Dog’s skill, it would be able to use it.
Of course, this was just a guess; She would need to see if the Fire Fang Dog could master higher-level skills in the future to confirm.Qiao Sang pulled her mind away from the codex. Although she wanted to further investigate the points issue, it clearly wasn’t the right time.
She noticed that the brat was still sitting on the ground, and the Desert-Tailed Fox was covered in injuries, with blood still on its neck.
Qiao Sang took out her phone and dialed 661.
“Hello, is this the Beast Emergency Center? This is the Hanggang Beast Center. There’s a wounded Desert-Tailed Fox here. Could you please come as soon as possible?”
“Someone already called? Oh, then it’s fine.”
Qiao Sang hung up the phone and ignored the dazed girl on the other side. She picked up the Fire Fang Dog and prepared to leave, only to turn and find a crowd of people behind her.
Humans are inherently curious. Within a short time, most of the spectators had gathered, with some even taking photos with their phones.
Qiao Sang felt a bit overwhelmed. She quickly left with the Fire Fang Dog, followed by the Fat Dove.
“Little sister, I see you have great potential. Interested in becoming a streamer?” A young man with dyed red hair approached her.
“Thanks, but no,” Qiao Sang replied, avoiding him.
“Can I challenge you to a beast battle?” A hat-wearing teenager caught up with her.
“No,” Qiao Sang refused.
“Student, which school are you from?” An aunt nearby asked with concern.
Qiao Sang: “…”
…
When Qiao Sang got home, her mother wasn’t there, but there was a bag of Red Awl Fruits on the dining table.
These fruits, which can enhance the constitution of fire-type extraordinary creatures, cost 700 Alliance Coins each. Eating them occasionally is fine, but consuming them daily is excessive.
Qiao Sang stared at the Red Awl Fruit for a while.
She picked one up and held it to the Fire Fang Dog’s mouth, smiling, “Here, eat this.”
The Fire Fang Dog sniffed it. It had only eaten standardized compressed blocks at the beast base and had never tried this fruit.
It smelled good and looked similar to something from a tree near its old home, though it was a different color.
Unfortunately, it hadn’t been able to eat from that tree.
Without hesitation, the Fire Fang Dog swallowed the Red Awl Fruit in one bite.
“Yip!”
The Fire Fang Dog’s eyes widened in delight.
This food is so delicious!
Seeing it finish, Qiao Sang connected to the Beast Tamer’s Codex again.
Name: Fire Fang Dog
Attribute: Fire
Level: Beginner (63/1000) +
Skills: Bite (Beginner 73/100) +, Charge (Intermediate 135/500) +, Fire Fang (Beginner 2/100) +
Points: 50
Nothing had changed.
Qiao Sang frowned. The values had changed after today’s battle, indicating that the Fire Fang Dog had made progress.
The Red Awl Fruit, which should enhance the constitution of fire-type extraordinary creatures, should have had some effect.
Was it still in the process of digesting?
“Yip!”
The Fire Fang Dog tugged at Qiao Sang’s hand with one paw.
Qiao Sang smiled and took out another Red Awl Fruit, feeding it to the Fire Fang Dog.
It swallowed it immediately.
After it finished, Qiao Sang connected to the Beast Tamer’s Codex once more.
Name: Fire Fang Dog
Attribute: Fire
Level: Beginner (64/1000) +
Skills: Bite (Beginner 73/100) +, Charge (Intermediate 135/500) +, Fire Fang (Beginner 2/100) +
Points: 50
It changed!
The level section changed from Beginner (63/1000) + to Beginner (64/1000) +!
Though it only increased by one, it proved her guess was correct!
However...
Qiao Sang hesitated as she looked at the remaining four Red Awl Fruits on the table. She picked one up and handed it to the Fire Fang Dog.
The Fire Fang Dog grabbed the Red Awl Fruit with its front paws and began to nibble.
Having already eaten two fruits before, it couldn\'t swallow the third one all at once and had to eat it piece by piece.
After finishing, it patted its belly contentedly.
Qiao Sang connected to the Beast Tamer’s Manual and fell into contemplation.
The values did not change.
Could it be that two Red Awl Fruits are needed to increase one point?
Qiao Sang picked up another Red Awl Fruit and offered it again.
“Yip.”
The Fire Fang Dog patted its belly to show that it was full.
“Be good, just one more.” Qiao Sang said, patting its head.
The Fire Fang Dog looked at Qiao Sang, wagged its red tail, and then lowered its head to eat.
In the Beast Tamer’s Manual, Qiao Sang saw that the Fire Fang Dog\'s level had changed to Beginner (65/1000) +.
Her guess was correct; It indeed took two Red Awl Fruits to increase one point.
Qiao Sang\'s gaze moved to the bottom of the points section. With a thought, she allocated all points to the Beginner (65/1000) + level.
Name: Fire Fang Dog
Attribute: Fire
Level: Beginner (115/1000) +
Skills: Bite (Beginner 73/100) +, Charge (Intermediate 135/500) +, Fire Fang (Beginner 2/100) +
Points: 0
The values really did increase...
Qiao Sang\'s breathing quickened.
One Red Awl Fruit costs 700 Alliance Coins, and two cost 1400 Alliance Coins.
Adding one point requires 1400 Alliance Coins, and there are still 885 points needed, which equals 1770 Red Awl Fruits.
That means...
1,239,000 Alliance Coins...
Oh my! That’s enough to buy an extraordinary pet!
Qiao Sang nearly exclaimed with excitement.
This point system directly boosts her strength, meaning she saves so much money!
Plus, the Fire Fang Dog can increase its stats through both battles and strength-enhancing foods!
With the point bonuses, she could potentially train the Fire Fang Dog to an intermediate-level pet three or even four times faster than others!
Isn\'t this a cheat code?
After a few seconds, Qiao Sang took out her phone and searched for all topics related to the Beast Tamer’s Codex. Indeed, she found no mention of her situation.
Even the self-awakened individuals only had a 3% to 6% higher brain domain development compared to those awakened later, allowing them to awaken the Beast Tamer’s Codex faster and have a better chance of reaching higher realms.
There was nothing particularly special beyond that.
Qiao Sang calmed down.
She had already suspected this possibility, and now it was just confirming her thoughts.
Besides, having a cheat code in her new world wasn’t that unusual.
Right.
Nothing special...
The Fire Fang Dog looked up at Qiao Sang with a puzzled expression.
Why was its Beast Tamer grinning foolishly at the air?
