[ding, Host, please pick a reward.].
“pick the skill psychic link.”
[Ding, simulation ended, entering cooldown.]
Max was shaking with excitement. At this rate, next week will be the date he activates his talent.
Max took a moment to calm himself since he had a lot to attend to and couldn’t afford any delays.
First of all, psychic crow mok needs to teach the other crows psychic link daily.
Earlier, Max was extremely excited because pets have the ability to teach each other skills and enhance their proficiency.
However, there were certain limitations to this. For instance, it was not possible to teach them abilities, regardless of how simple they were.
Additionally, it was important for the pets to be of the same race or at least share similar characteristics.
After all, you can't expect a fish to teach a bird how to breathe underwater.
“alright everyone, listen to me carefully,
First things first, mok you will be responsible for teaching the others psychic link daily.
Everyone else work hard to learn. If you do well, I will let you watch more of Mafia out of the city.”
CRAW! CRAW!.
The group of crows looked at each other. They would obviously execute Max's command, but rewatching the same series again wasn't a good motivation.
“don't give me that look. You only watched the first season, and there's 14 left, any one of you with slow progress won't be allowed to watch. “
CRAW! Craw!. CRAW! Craw!. CRAW! Craw.!
The crows went wild instantly.
Max was satisfied by their reaction, but he noticed something off in front of him.
Lucy was flying next to him in her real body, looking at him, seemingly waiting for something.
“Lu, shouldn't you be guarding?”
Lucy flew in front of him. ‘turn my turn.’
Max understood immediately. Lucy obviously wanted to simulate.
‘ not yet Lu, you'll have to wait till we are about to leave the current simulation world. ‘ Max spoke through their mental Link.
Lucy tilted her head, not understanding.
‘If you don't understand, then don't worry about Lu. Just wait. Anyway, the current world can't nurture a strong pet like you.’
Lucy still didn't understand much, but she nodded obediently since Max said to just wait, then she will do that.
Max patted Lucy's little head, and she smiled in return.
“alright Lu, go back now, and by the way, didn't I tell you not leave your mountain form before you inform me? ”
Lucy just smiled sheepishly and disappeared into green light.
She really didn't mean to do it and just forgot.
Max just shook his head.
If you find this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the infringement.
“alright Lu, take them outside to practice. It's up to Mok to decide when to rest.
Hmm and Lucy, if you see anyone of them lazing around then you...... “
.... Max took a moment to think about a suitable punishment….
“if you see anyone of them lazing around, then you can play with him just like you used to with the pigeon. “
The mountain went quiet for a moment, or maybe it was Max's imagination.
Anyway, he wanted results from the crows, so he was secretly ruthless, maybe too ruthless this time?
Looking at the Mist carrying the crows outside, Max smiled.
“if any of you were lazing around, then don't blame me.”
...................
Next, Max looked at the bottle of green liquid in his hand.
“simulator, can I drink this?”
[Ding, scanning. … .]
[Ding, reporting to The Host.
consumption of the evergreen inheritance item will result in.
3% chance of death.
40% chance of damaging your body.
50% chance of having no effect.
7% chance of unknown mutations.]
……” I see, so I am definitely not drinking this, how many abilities are stored inside?, and which one of my pets has the highest chance of gaining it? “
[Ding, reporting to The Host.
This inheritance item contains 02 abilities and 00 skills.
The abilities belong to a plant type life form and none of your pets can inherent it.]
Max was kinda disappointed.
“just two abilities? So this should be a C-rank inheritance item….
Fuck it, just show the success rate percentage for each pet. I am willing to gamble if it's not too bad..”
[Ding, showing reports.]
-Mountain fairy Lucy. 00.002%
-Shadow crow Delma. 00%
-Fire crow haiyer. 00%
-Lightning crow. raad 00%
-Wood crow louh. 00.0000001%
-Sand crow ramla. 00%
-Mirror crow mraia. 00%
-Mystic crow sahar. 00%
-ash crow Imlak. 00%
-ghost crow ykaouf. 00%
-psychic crow mok. 00%
Max was speechless. If he still used it, then it wouldn't be gambling but throwing resources away.
“Simulator, is there any way to increase the success rate?”
[Ding, reporting to The Host.
There is only one known method to increase the success rate, which is to change your race to that of the same one as the maker of the inheritance item.]
“then, is there any use for this thing?. “
[Ding, Host please read the article… fundamentals in blood, power and inheritance.]
Max wanted to watch over the crows training, but gaining knowledge is just as important, plus he spent 6 years in simulation to get this thing.
It would be disappointing to just leave it to rot inside the space ring.
“Lucy, I am going to be busy reading, make sure to inform me of any changes to the crowd of people next door. Also, keep the crows safe.”
‘will do’.
Getting confirmation from Lucy, Max opened the article and started reading, not knowing that Lucy was still watching.
........
And just like that, Max spent the next few hours engrossed in reading while Lucy stood guard, her gaze fixed on him as he spent more than 5 hours staring into the void.
Occasionally, she saw him nod in understanding, wear a puzzled expression, or even appear surprised.
Lucy was literally panicking. Her master has gone mad again.
‘master, when I have money, I take you to best psychiatric hospital. ‘
Max..: “huh?”
Max was dull for a moment, getting this sudden mental message from Lucy completely broke his concentration.
“what the?. What are you on, Lucy? “
But Lucy didn't respond.
determined to help her master, she went looking for a way to gain money, maybe discussing with the crows.
Max just shook his head and went back to reading
He was already used to Lucy's sudden antics, plus Lucy didn't interrupt anything important, since he already found a way to use the inheritance item.
He just kept reading because the article was very informing.
......................
After an unknown amount of time, Lucy interrupted Max again, but this time it was due to Max's orders.
“hmm, you're saying something happened to the group of humans?”
‘yes’
“hmm, let's go take a look.”
Max considered the matter very carefully, and he had to check the scene.
Because the situation wasn't normal.
Earlier he went closer to check the place, countless superhuman camping as if waiting for something.
Obviously, they know something, maybe a treasure will appear there.
But that's normal. The real odd thing is that there were no big forces participating, not even the government.
Maybe the higher ups weren't interested, but Max didn't believe their dogs and chickens weren't.
Even among the people passing by his mountain, none of them seemed important or at the very least they should of carefully hid their identities.
Max didn't want trouble, but he smelled benefits.
Benefits big enough to take a small risk.
He had a guess that the big forces came to an agreement about this matter to not interfere, or maybe they were wary of each other or of something completely different.
Whatever treasure that pushed them into such a situation, Max wanted it.
Of course, he would not jump in like an idiot.
“alright Lu, take me to the edge of the mountain, and while I take a look, you build a closed, well fortified place inside the mountain. Just leave some small holes for air.”
Without hesitation, Lucy sprang into action. The purpose of constructing this place was to hide the crows during their outings, so she took great precautions.
.............
Arriving at the edge of the mountain, Max pulled out his sniper and took aim.
From this distance, he can see the crowd boiling, some were fighting, but not a lot.
most of them were just moving around or standing by.
“Lucy, are you done?. “
Max already showed her how to build a safe house for the crows two days ago, in case he decided to participate in whatever was going on there.
So he wasn't worried about the quality of her work. Plus, all his pet crows are at the E-rank, in this E-rank zone. even if he let them loose, they wouldn't be in much trouble.
As for his so called bad luck, Max reflected on it and judged that they would be safe.
Anger welled up inside Max as he recalled the source of his bad luck.
‘fuck you bad luck. One day I am going to find you and send you to the afterlife, but before that, I will squeeze that precious blood drop by drop day after day. ‘
.......
‘ yes I am done’ Lucy interpreted his musings
“alright, you take control of that mountain. I will stay far away from the group and observe. Inform me when you control the mountain. “
Max plan to watch and see, maybe kidnap someone for questioning.
................ …
Back at Kain city.
Inside his office, the mayor of the city stood obediently to the side as a bald young man occupied his seat.
“Sir Mark, the gate for the martial arts dungeon has opened, and it's confirmed to be a legacy dungeon and it's secondary to the one in glory city. “ Spoke the mayor.
“alright just don’t interfere. “
“but sir mark, shouldn't we block the crowd of normal people from entering?”
The bald young man just gave the mayor a condescending look.
“us not taking the martial art dungeon, is out of respect to the Elder Association secrets, and also to avoid any unnecessary conflict.
But taking the initiative to block others from getting it, make us look weak.
Others might think that my star continent is afraid of them. “
“but sir mark, each continents guard its power system from the other. If someone gets it, the elder association will definitely kill them. “
“who cares about them? Just let them be killed. “
“sir, why don't we take it for ourselves? I have some subordinates with special talents.
the matter will not be tracked back to us. “
“idiot, if it was possible, then would it be left to you.
The Elder association has a method to track every Qi practitioner basically once you practice martial arts and give birth to Qi within your body, they'll be able to pinpoint your location.
Now shut up for me. Don't talk unless there's something to report. “
The mayor was depressed. He was so talkative because he wanted to carry favor with this big shot, but it seemed to have backfire.
