Chapter 11: What the Heck is Shyness?!_1

For a moment, Fang Mu was uncertain whether the Venomous Gigantic Lizard mentioned in the report was the creature he knew.

If it was, Fang Mu felt like lighting a candle for these four immortals in his heart.

The Venomous Gigantic Lizard indeed was a type of Guardian Beast that could only be found in the Gobi Desert.

Many Beast Masters who paired well with lizard-like Guardian Beasts favored the Venomous Gigantic Lizard.

Firstly, because the Venomous Gigantic Lizard had pretty decent combat strength.

Secondly, it had something to do with the faint trace of dragon bloodline within the Venomous Gigantic Lizard's body.

Once, with the help of a Creator, a Beast Master had managed to evolve a Venomous Gigantic Lizard into a Venomous Lizard Dragon.

However, all the rumors and academic materials Fang Mu had heard about the Venomous Gigantic Lizard before had only ever mentioned its astounding power.

It was the first time that Fang Mu learnt that the Venomous Gigantic Lizard had the potential to be popular in this aspect.

From a normal perspective, the skin of a Venomous Gigantic Lizard, which exceeded two meters in size at the Copper Stage, was full of wrinkles.

Due to its habit of rolling in the mud, it was often stained with dried mud throughout the year.

It indeed didn't meet the traditional standard of beauty.

The gland organ on the Venomous Gigantic Lizard's body was highly developed, one could smell the stench coming from it even from tens of meters away.

The saliva of the Venomous Gigantic Lizard contained various chronic toxins and abundant bacteria.

The Venomous Gigantic Lizard liked to hunt large prey, but it held no advantage in size comparison to large prey.

The Venomous Gigantic Lizard liked to bite and leave its viscous saliva on the wounds of its prey.

Gradually, toxins and bacteria would contaminate the prey's body.

All the Venomous Gigantic Lizard needed then was to hunt for one or two days.

The large prey would die of a full body infection due to a wound that didn't seem severe.

The Venomous Gigantic Lizard's way of hunting destined it to be a scavenger.

Who was the person that could shine the light of charm on such a creature?

Fang Mu hoped that this female Venomous Gigantic Lizard wouldn't reach the Silver Stage.

Otherwise, the Venomous Gigantic Lizard's other mouth would also be filled with lethal bacteria and toxin similar to its saliva.

These toxins didn't affect the male Venomous Gigantic Lizards.

However, they were unbearable for Beast Masters.

The news kept broadcasting. Once Fang Mu learned that these four Beast Masters were from the Jia Li Federation, things started to make sense.

It was hardly surprising that any Beast Master from the Jia Li Federation would make any outlandish moves.

This was internationally recognized.

The Eternal Alchemy Association, which had used Beast Masters and Guardian Beasts in evil ways in the pursuit of eternal life, originated from the Jia Li Federation after all.

This evil organization, the Eternal Alchemy Association, was conducting large-scale terrorist activities in various parts of the world every year.

It was targeted by all federations for joint arrest.

When the news was being broadcast earlier...

Fang Mu saw a pretty, short-haired girl in the uniform of a Dinghai Mall guide came to his side.

With the Eye of Omniscience, a divine power given to him by his Destiny Guardian Beast, Fool's Shadow...

Fang Mu had a sharper observation of things.

Fang Mu was sure that the flush on the face of the female guide was due to the content of the news broadcast.

This blush made Fang Mu somewhat puzzled.

The first reaction to this kind of news should be absurdity and disgust, right?

What the hell does a blush mean!?

This must be a guide with a story!

The work badge number of this female guide was 58, which matched the number on the plate Fang Mu held in his hand.

Before this guide could speak, Fang Mu had already stood up and handed over the plate in his hand.

The female guide hurriedly straightened up.

He lightly coughed and took the number card from Fang Mu, saying,

"Apologies for the wait, sir!"

"I am your shopping guide today. Please feel free to tell me about any of your needs."

"I hope my service brings you a delightful shopping experience!"

Fang Mu was always a man who planned ahead.

For this particular purchase of spiritual materials, he had already made up his mind.

"I need ten needle-haired blood mosquitoes with a blood sac capacity of 100 milliliters."

"One hundred grams of silver stage blue striped goji berries, two hundred grams of copper stage purple spotted angelica, thirty silver-grade blood nourishing honey dates, and three jars of donkey skin gelatin boiled from Copper Stage Guardian Beasts with long back short-eared donkeys."

As a shopping guide serving customers, their biggest fear is a customer who cannot clearly express what they need.

In the field of Beast Masters, there are various spiritual materials that can achieve the same effect.

If customers only mention effects, it is challenging for the guide to provide precise suggestions.

They often favor customers with clear objectives over those who require personal suggestions.

"Alright, I'll prepare these items for you!"

"Before I fetch these items, I need to confirm a few things."

"There are two types of needle-haired blood mosquitoes with blood sac capacities of 100 milliliters."

"One type is cultured by the Jinghai Army—these mosquitoes' proboscises are more refined and well-suited for blood extraction in delicate places."

"The other type is captured from the wild and sterilized."

"These mosquitoes have thicker proboscises and tend to struggle more during blood extraction."

"Drawing blood from delicate spots may cause some damage."

"In terms of price, Jinghai Army-cultured blood mosquitoes are one point five Dragon Rising Coins more expensive."

Ordinarily, the needle-haired blood mosquito, a one-use Tool Beast, costs around three hundred Federal Coins.

A one point five Dragon Rising Coin price hike essentially doubles the price.

However, to Fang Mu, safety trumped all else.

Therefore, he unhesitatingly chose the Jinghai Army-cultured needle-haired blood mosquito.

Once the guide confirmed Fang Mu's choice, he asked more detailed questions.

"There are two variants of the blood replenishing spiritual material, purple spotted angelica—one is three years old, and the other is five years old."

"Which type do you prefer?"

The guide was about to painstakingly explain the difference between the three and five-year-old copper-grade purple spotted angelica to Fang Mu.

However, Fang Mu simply replied,

"I want the five-year-old purple spotted angelica, and the donkey gelatin must be from an old donkey of at least fifteen years."

Fang Mu has always been striving to become a Creator's assistant.

His understanding of spiritual materials far surpasses the guide's knowledge.

Boiling the four spiritual materials Fang Mu chose to purchase together was presently the most cost-effective and efficient way of replenishing blood.

All four blood-replenishing spiritual materials primarily provided nourishment and wouldn't drain the body's existent vitality.

Fang Mu anticipated the guide's subsequent question.

The guide promptly realized the high schooler before him, clad in Jinghai Beastmaster High School uniform, was an expert.

After noting down Fang Mu's requests, the guide gently said,

"Please wait here for a moment. I'll fetch the spiritual materials you selected so you can inspect their quality."

Fang Mu smiled and said,

"Thank you for your trouble."

"After purchasing these spiritual materials, I'd like to visit the beast taming area on the first floor."
