Subduing a Pet

Jiang Chen's heart stirred as he looked at the blood tiger that had almost been subdued.

He took out a hemp rope and walked forward to tie one end of the rope to its four limbs, while the other end was tied to the remains of a nearby building.

He could barely suppress it.

Jiang Chen tied up the four limbs of the blood tiger.

No one could guess what Jiang Chen was thinking right now. It seemed that he had other intentions and wasn't planning on killing this big fellow.

"Heh heh."

Jiang Chen rubbed his hands together as a smile appeared on his face. His expression when he looked at the blood-fanged tiger also held some ill intentions.

The blood-fanged tiger's body had already been slashed open.

Fresh blood dripped down its large head onto the ground one drop at a time.

It caused the ground below to turn bright red.

As its life points flowed, it had already begun to become on the verge of death.

It looked pitifully at Jiang Chen with only one intact eye left.

Transparent tears dripped down from the corners of its eyes, sliding past its bloody head and dropping to the ground.

It looked rather pitiful. However, Jiang Chen was unmoved.

He summoned the suzerain system in his heart and searched endlessly.

Barely a minute later, he stabbed the guard's sword into the ground by his feet and took out a dark yellow piece of kraft paper with a flip of his hand.

The kraft paper was densely packed with treaties written in mysterious words.

It turned out that Jiang Chen had just purchased a prop from the system.

"Pet contract (Green). The success rate of the contract will fluctuate according to the condition of the contract target. The worse the condition, or even the state of near-death, the higher the success rate of the pet contract."

"Little tiger, do you want to live? Or do you not want to live?"

"If you want to live, then obediently become my pet. This is your only chance."

Jiang Chen said unhurriedly as he placed the pet contract in front of it and waved it.

The blood-fanged tiger looked at the contract with one eye, then looked at Jiang Chen, and humphed in a very human manner.

"You're quite tactful."

The will of the contract's target could also determine a portion of the success rate.

Jiang Chen nodded. It was the right time, the right place, and the right tiger.

Now, he'd have to rely on his own luck. If he was lucky, he'd bring the tiger home.

If he was unlucky, he'd bring the tiger meat home.

"Sign the contract!"

Jiang Chen chose to use it.

The pet contract in his hand instantly turned into an illusory chain, one connected to the blood tiger and the other to Jiang Chen.

A special connection was gradually being established, and the chain was also becoming more and more solid.

This process lasted for a full ten minutes, and no accidents occurred during the entire process.

The signing was successful!

The chain disappeared after the contract was completed.

He felt the connection in his heart.

Jiang Chen waved his hand to disperse the people around him.

Then, he waved his sword and cut off the hemp ropes on the blood-fanged tiger's four limbs.

The blood-fanged tiger's entire body was wrapped in a ray of light. After the light had dissipated, all of its injuries had healed, and even the sharp arrows that had shot out its eyes had disappeared.

It was as if its state had been reset.

It lay in front of Jiang Chen respectfully.

Its head was pressed to the ground, expressing its submission to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen nodded in satisfaction.

The blood-fanged tiger's attributes were still the same as before. It didn't shrink just because it had become a pet.

It could also be upgraded and nurtured.

"Blood tiger pet (unnamed), race: magical beast, aptitude: 3 stars, level: LV7, attributes: (click to expand). Hunger: 80, loyalty: 80."

"Not bad, let me change your name."

"You can call yourself Red Tooth from now on."

Jiang Chen rubbed his chin and conveniently changed its name.

Parker and the others walked up.

They all knew that this blood tiger that wasn't to be trifled with had now become the Lord's pet.

Jiang Chen patted Red Tooth's large head.

He looked at its broad shoulders at the back of its neck and wondered if he could ride on it.

He grabbed the tiger fur on Red Tooth's back and climbed up agilely.

He rode on Red Tooth's back.

It didn't have to be said that he could really ride on it.

It was also very spacious. The mane at the back stood up like a backrest. He didn't even need a saddle. It was even more comfortable than riding a horse.

Paired with Red Tooth's magnificent body and fierce teeth, it was quite impressive.

Red Tooth didn't have any objections to this. As a pet with an initial loyalty of up to 80, it was extremely loyal to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen patted its head lightly and pointed to the cave ahead. Red Tooth instantly understood its master's intentions and slowly stood up, walking steadily towards the depths.

"Let's go, let's set off."

Jiang Chen turned his head and said.

Everyone followed Red Tooth into the mine.

A foul stench assailed their faces from within.

There was the stench of rotting corpses and the stench of feces.

The corpses were almost piled up at the entrance of the cave. These were obviously the handiwork of Red Tooth.

The mine was pitch black and didn't have any light sources. However, there were torches on both sides of the walls at intervals.

Zhang Fei took the initiative to collect five or six torches and lit them up, illuminating the mine. Everyone's figures were elongated by the flames and projected onto the walls behind them.

Jiang Chen took a glance at the torches and furrowed his brows, as if he'd discovered something suspicious.

These were all ordinary torches.

They weren't made of any special materials, nor were they considered props.

Logically speaking, they shouldn't be able to withstand the erosion of ten thousand years.

However, these torches were also covered in dust and had slight signs of decay. It was obvious that they were quite old.

Then who had brought these torches here?

In other words, in the past, some factions had once organized exploration teams in an attempt to reopen this mine.

There was no use thinking about this now, so Jiang Chen continued to give the order.

Everyone walked towards the interior of the mine.

The road in front of them was slowly descending. The torches' light could only illuminate an area of more than ten meters, leaving only constantly changing shadows in the distance.

There were many transportation tracks along the way.

There were also many damaged metal ore carts piled up on both sides of the mine. Most of the carts were empty.

However, there were still some carts that were filled with ore. It was obvious that a great battle had broken out before they could be transported out.

The mine had stopped, completely abandoned.

It seemed that the temple outside was only a disguise, but this was actually a mine.

Jiang Chen rode Red Tooth to a mining cart filled with ores.

He waved his hand and actually managed to collect them.

"System notification: obtained iron block 37x, obtained copper 12x, obtained mithril 6x, obtained primary elemental crystal 3x, obtained primary earth elemental crystal 3x, acquired stone 86x."

What a comfortable batch!

Jiang Chen was instantly delighted.

This was delightfully lucrative.
