"Oh?"
Su Ping's eyes glowed.
He had never been taught in the academy so he knew nothing about augmentation skills.
As a battle pet warrior, he was not qualified to be one.
Fan Yujing helped Su Ping open the exchange page on the screen. A dazzling array of items appeared on the list.
There were weapons, skills, treasures, pets, and so on.
"Dragon Scale Armor. Immune to the physical attacks of Astral Pets of the middle-rank and low-rank. Greatly weaken the attacks of advanced pets …"
"'Magical Ape Physical Conditioning Art': Once mastered, the user will be able to dodge bullets and move quickly. The user will be as fast as an eighth-rank Astral Pet …"
"Iceheart Fruit of a Thousand Stripes: It can double the power of advanced pets of the water family …"
"Baby Blue Dragon: Its aptitude has not been evaluated. Fifty thousand points."
…
Su Ping was dazzled by the array of treasures. Apart from the augmentation skills, there were also body strengthening skills that battle pet warriors needed, as well as skills for different weapons.
"You can pick anything you want, right?" Su Ping looked at Fan Yujing.
Fan Yujing noticed the look in Su Ping's eyes. He forced a bitter smile. "Brother SU, I can't afford those advanced items. I will try my best to satisfy you."
"Okay."
Su Ping didn't make things difficult for Fan Yujing. He only picked the first to sixth levels of the four basic skills. Those were the basic skills and they were sold at a low price.
"That's all?" Fan Yujing was surprised that Su Ping didn't ask for anything else. He had thought that Su Ping would at least pick some middle-rank and low-rank treasures. Those were the things that explorers coveted. Besides, they were consumables. You could never have too many.
Fan Yujing thought about it and picked a middle-rank armor for Su Ping. It could fend off the attacks of most fifth-rank Astral Pets. That would provide some protection.
After Fan Yujing paid the merit points, the machine spat out a note.
Fan Yujing told Su Ping and Fan Xiaoyu to wait there while he went to the warehouse with the note to pick up the items.
A few minutes later, he came back with a black armor in his hands.
"This is your cultivation method." Fan Yujing handed a small portable hard drive to Su Ping.
Su Ping took it and glanced at it, then put it into his pocket and sent it into the storage space.
"This is the armor." Fan Yujing handed the armor to Su Ping and led them back to the small building.
After leaving the base, Fan Ganglie, Li Ying, and Fan Yujing summoned their battle pets.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Three beasts came out from the mark of the contract. They were middle-rank Astral Pets, Rock Dragon Lizards.
When the Rock Dragon Lizard reached adulthood, it would become a fifth-rank Astral Pet. Among the fifth-rank pets, the Rock Dragon Lizard's combat ability was average. That being said, the Rock Dragon Lizard was an excellent means of transportation. The Rock Dragon Lizard could climb even steep rocks.
The three of them sat on the back of the Rock Dragon Lizard. Seeing that Su Ping didn't have a mount, Fan Yujing shouted, "Brother SU, come to me."
Su Ping didn't hesitate. He hugged the Little Skeleton by his feet, gathered astral powers in his legs, and jumped onto the back of the Rock Dragon Lizard.
The Rock Dragon Lizard sensed the strange smell on its back. It was agitated. It stuck out its long and thin tongue, swinging around as if it was reluctant.
Fan Yujing stroked and comforted the Rock Dragon Lizard for a while. Finally, the Rock Dragon Lizard became docile.
"Let's go."
Fan Ganglie grabbed the reins and took the lead.
Fan Yujing and Li Ying were right behind him.
Under the night sky, they flew forward at full speed.
When they could no longer see the base behind them, Li Ying mobilized astral powers. He opened the pet space again and summoned a flying pet.
This was a bird that was less than half a meter tall. As soon as it appeared, it spread its wings and flew into the night. It was so fast that it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
A moment later, Li Ying suddenly said, "There is a small group of beasts five kilometers ahead."
"Let's take a detour," Fan Ganglie said without hesitation.
The Rock Dragon Lizard climbed from the side of the mountain. On the steep mountain, Su Ping had to grab Fan Yujing's shoulder to prevent himself from falling.
Half an hour later.
Flames gradually appeared in Su Ping's sight.
On a plain, there was a cluster of flames and a crowd of people moving about.
When they got closer, they saw that it was a temporary camp. Seven or eight meters above the camp, there was a vertical crack that was more than twenty meters long and seven or eight meters wide. Inside the crack was a twisted space.
"Is this the space crack?" Su Ping was surprised. This was the first time he had seen a space crack up close.
Soon, they arrived at the camp on the back of the Rock Dragon Lizard. When they arrived at the entrance, the three of them put the Rock Dragon Lizard back into the pet space. Then, they showed their pioneering badges and entered the camp.
"Fan?"
As soon as they entered the camp, they heard a voice.
Fan Ganglie stopped and looked over. He saw a skinny young man walking over with a black battle saber on his waist.
Under the light of the fire by the door, a thin and long scar could be seen on the young man's cheek. The scar looked ferocious, adding a touch of coldness to his handsome face.
"Sorry to keep you waiting." Fan Ganglie smiled when he saw this person. He turned to Fan Yujing and Li Ying and said, "This is Lin Mokong, the main attacker of the Black Wolves Team. He is an advanced battle pet warrior!"
"Advanced battle pet warrior?" Fan Yujing and Li Ying were surprised. They reported their names at once. "Please take care of us."
"I have read your files." Lin Mokong nodded to them. Then, he looked at Su Ping. "And this is?"
Fan Ganglie introduced him at once, "This is Brother Su Ping, an outsider invited by Fan Ganglie."
Lin Mokong sized up Su Ping and asked, "Brother SU, were you an explorer?"
"No," Su Ping said.
Lin Mokong frowned. It was just as he had observed. Su Ping's body was too clean. There were no scars. He didn't look like an experienced explorer.
Besides, Su Ping's armor was too ordinary. Lin Mokong recognized it at a glance. It was a middle-level armor, but it was a relatively cheap one. Few explorers in Class B barren areas still used this kind of armor.
Fan Ganglie saw that Lin Mokong was unhappy. He quickly explained, "The situation is urgent. Brother SU is not an explorer, but he is strong enough."
Lin Mokong looked at him. The coldness in his eyes was obvious. Strength is enough? If that was the case, anyone could become a pioneer!
However, it was meaningless for him to say more. He said, "Just listen to the command after you go in. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
"Don't worry about that," Fan Ganglie promised. After all, he was the one who brought Su Ping here. He would take good care of him.
"Let's go."
Lin Mokong said and walked toward the space fissure.
Fan Ganglie turned around and said goodbye to the others. Then, he followed Lin Mokong.
Fan Yujing was a bit embarrassed. He said to Su Ping, "Brother SU, all explorers are like this. They are straightforward. Don't mind them."
"Okay." Su Ping nodded.
