Demon Horse and Dead Fish

In a short period of time, the needle fully entered the cat's body.

At this moment, there was a golden light and an illusory golden chain that appeared on the cat's body, wrapped around her as if to declare that her was a slave that had been subjugated.

At the same time, Aldric felt a special connection between his mind and the cat's mind, as if he was able to directly give orders to the cat and she could not refuse his orders at all.

No, it wasn't just as if. He was actually able to do it.

When the golden light and the illusory chain disappeared, the cat calmed down again.

She even gave Aldric a gentle look.

And this also let Aldric know how weak her condition was.

If she was forced to fight, she would probably suffer many injuries quickly.

'Fortunately, I still have quite a lot of Honey of Life. A few liters should be able to restore this cat's condition,' he thought.

Honey of Life had the function of temporarily increasing strength and treating various kinds of physical injuries.

It could be used by all living beings no matter how high their power level was.

However, the stronger they were, the more Honey of Life was needed.

"Congratulations Mr. William, you are now the master of the Slith Cat, a monster that can threaten all Junior Magicians," said the manager to Aldric so that everyone looked at Aldric with some fear.

In White Wind City, the existence of Senior Magician was very rare, the 10th Stage Junior Magician was considered the peam of power. A person with an extremely powerful level 10 monster was naturally considered extremely threatening.

Unfortunately, not many could buy such a monster because the price was too high.

Afterwards, the manager and Aldric walked up to the large-bodied Polar Ice Bear, surprising people again as it turned out that Aldric hadn't just bought one monster.

Although the bear was not as strong as the cat, it was still a very strong monster among level 10.

It had a defense that was very difficult to break through.

The manager went through the same process with the bear so that it would recognize Aldric as its master.

Meanwhile, in a certain corner of the monster market, there were men in their 30s standing side by side.

They both had thin bodies, pale white skin, like they rarely ate.

It was just that, their faint aura sometimes frightened people passing by the side.

"I bet that boy is also a player," said one of the men.

He had long curly hair, giving a gloomy impression to his appearance.

The man by his side had very messy short hair, making people think he had a nest of lice in his hair.

Since they were talking about players, they were obviously also players.

With their appearance, they were without a doubt the kind of gamers who completely immersed themselves in the gaming world.

Their original appearance carried over into this world. If only they didn't have such a terrifying aura, they were practically no different from the neets who were easy to bully.

In the real world, they were easy to bully, but here they could take on the role of villains.

Their names are unknown, they only use nicknames.

The long-haired man called himself the Demon Horse, while the other man called himself the Dead Fish.

In White Wind City, they were a few of the top players.

"Right, he seems to be a rich man's son. Hmph, he really does have so many Level 10 Monster Cores. Even if all the players in the city collected their Monster Cores, there might not be as many as his," Dead Fish replied.

"This really sucks, we're very skilled gamers. Unfortunately, those rich people easily surpass us by relying on their money," he continued.

"It's also because too many of us sell those items to those rich people, aren't you too, Dead Fish?" replied the Demon Horse.

"What else can I do? I need money to buy a new virtual headset or I won't be able to play anymore," Dead Fish replied.

"Stop saying nonsense, we'd better think of a strategy to catch that boy now," he added.

"No need for a strategy, he'll definitely go out of town to take care of those two monsters. After all, that bear is too big, it's not suitable to be taken care of within the city. We can directly attack him when he's outside the city. If he's weak, then this will be easy. However, if he is also at the 10th Stage, we need to put in extra effort and use our treasure to restrain the two monsters," said Demon Horse.

These two weren't just playing the game in the usual way. They actually became robbers, robbing rich NPCs or rich players for treasures.

That was their way of advancing quickly.

In fact, the two of them now only needed a few more ingredients and they could form the Genesis Core, becoming a Senior Magician.

This time, Aldric was their target because he was the most conspicuous one in this monster market.

For them, successfully robbing him would allow them to accumulate more wealth than they had so far.

Meanwhile, the cat and bear were finally released from their cages.

The manager let them follow Aldric.

With his control over their minds, they naturally did not go berserk.

"By the way, Mr. Alan, how much does the card to cage the monster cost?" Aldric then asked about the cards while glancing at the few people who had the cards.

Up close, he could see that inside the cards, the caged monsters could actually still move around.

They were like a home for them.

"You mean the Monster Seal Card, do you want it, Mr. William?" asked Alan with a faint smile.

He scanned Aldric's eyes as if thinking, 'hmph, this boy must be tricking me by pretending to have no money left.'

He was actually a bit annoyed, but this was a trade. He lost the negotiation with the buyer, he could only blame himself.

"Yes, state the price," Aldric replied.

"One card costs five Level 10 Monster Cores. It's not like a Storage Artifact because it can hold living creatures even if it's only one living creature for each card, so the price is far above Storage Artifacts which are considered not so valuable," Alan replied.

"And this price is fixed, it can't go down anymore," he added.

His smile grew wider.

This card actually brought him a good profit, so he was very happy every time it was sold.

Of course, what made it expensive wasn't the difficulty of making it.

Although it was difficult, the capital was less than one Level 10 Monster Core.

However, not many could make it, only people with certain skills.
