Chapter 17 Evolution_2

```

However, these four major systems were actually still quite basic.

Lu Ran's eyes narrowed as he read on, and only then did he understand what core elements determined the fighting power of a Pet Beast!

Energy Application, simply put, is something any Pet Beast can practice. It all comes down to effort and talent.

But what follows... pertains to the chapter on evolution! It is the greatest opportunity for every creature, a chance to change their fate!

[Every 10 levels, a Pet Beast can awaken a new attribute or carry a trait through Special Resources.]

[By awakening a new attribute, a Pet Beast can acquire a second attribute, a third attribute, a fourth attribute...]

[As for what is called a trait, it's similar to a kind of 'special ability'.]

[For example, the 'Magnification' trait allows a Pet Beast to freely control its size, becoming a Giant Beast or a mini pet.]

[For example, the 'Sun' trait allows a Fire Attribute Pet Beast's Fire Attribute Power to become 'Sunburn', possessing an even more terrifying temperature.]

[For example, the 'Vibration' trait can make a Pet Beast's attacks carry a shaking effect, thereby enhancing its Destructive Power.]

[For example, the 'Dragon Descendant' trait can endow the Pet Beast with the features of a dragon...]

[Traits are quirky and varied, anything is possible, and there is a large gap in combat power between Pet Beasts with no traits and those with traits.]

[Most importantly, 'Attribute' and 'Trait' determine the direction of a Pet Beast's evolution; each time a Pet Beast carries a new trait or awakens a new attribute, it will improve its Species Level.]

[And when the sum of the new attributes and traits reaches 3, the Pet Beast will undergo an 'Evolution' phenomenon, undergo a significant morphological change, and greatly promote its Species Level, thereby acquiring stronger attributes.]

[That is to say, a Pet Beast has two opportunities for evolution, at Level 30 and Level 60.]

[However, the resources for awakening new attributes and the Trait Crystals for imbuing traits are extremely rare, only dropping with a small chance in Abyss-Level Secret Realms, which is the ultimate goal that Beast Trainers pursue.]

"Evolution..."

"Traits, new attributes, my God." Lu Ran couldn't contain his excitement at the prospect of venturing into the Secret Realm. Throughout the manual, the evolution of Mr. Husky was what attracted him the most. But all these seemed far out of reach for him.

The newbies' Secret Realm of the basic level was already challenging enough, how could he venture into the Abyss-level dungeons.

He should start by training Mr. Husky's four Energy Applications.

Lu Ran spent half an hour thoroughly reading the Beast Training Manual. This not only contained some basic knowledge about Beast Trainers and Pet Beasts but also recorded some information regarding the Secret Realms, teaming up, and lifestyle-oriented Beast Trainers.

Only after reading all this did Lu Ran feel like he had a preliminary understanding of Infinite City and Beast Training.

"Aoowwww!!!!!"

Next, Lu Ran was considering going through the manual again, but suddenly, he heard a familiar sound in his ear.

Lu Ran's expression was startled as he took out the Black Card, confident that the sound was coming from there.

Had Mr. Husky woken up?

"Aoo!!!"

With a casual gesture, Lu Ran summoned Mr. Husky, who had had a full rest, and it excitedly began to circle around Lu Ran.

"No way, you fought all day, and after just over an hour of sleep, you're up?"

"Woof!"

Mr. Husky's blue eyes looked at Lu Ran with anticipation.

A tuft of hair on its head constantly shaking.

Mainly, it was hungry again.

Lu Ran: "..."

"Hold on, let's not worry about food right now. You woke up just in time!" Lu Ran's eyes lit up.

```

Lu Ran held a "Super Beast Mimicry" skill card in his hand, deep in thought.

A Beast Trainer, at each level, could only learn one Beast Training Technique.

Thinking it over, the Super Beast Mimicry seemed quite promising. Mr. Husky could fight on his own and heal his injuries. On the contrary, it was crucial for him to enhance his own combat capabilities.

So, Lu Ran didn't feel like learning Super Beast Mimicry during the intern phase was a disadvantage in any way.

On the contrary, he found the skill to be excellent, perfectly suited for his current novice stage. After all, a Beast Trainer being beheaded was the most uncomfortable experience, a completely unreasonable way to play the game.

It was like when he battled bugs with the old man in the park; his bugs were about to win when the old man reached out, gave him a hard thwack, knocking him unconscious. Where could one go to argue about that?

As for whether or not he would become more like Mr. Husky after learning it... Lu Ran already had an idea!

[Name]: Passerby A (Lu Ran)

[Race]: Human

[Level]: Intern

[Beast Training Technique]: Super Beast Mimicry

Learning a Beast Training Technique was simple. Activating the Beast Training Skill Card would cause the card to disappear, and immediately after, the information about Super Beast Mimicry surfaced in Lu Ran's mind.

Following that, Lu Ran had a bad feeling about the Mr. Husky standing before him.

The next moment, as expected, under Mr. Husky's confused expression, Lu Ran pulled out two swords, one wooden and one bespoke Iron-Chopping Sword.

"Ao?"

Mr. Husky looked towards Lu Ran.

"Here, hold it in your mouth."

"Do you remember the swordsmanship I taught you before?"

Lu Ran stuffed the wooden sword into Mr. Husky's mouth to hold, while he himself held the Iron-Chopping Sword, continuing to face each other, man and dog.

Lu Ran had said before that Mr. Husky's temperament was quite similar to that of Ya Zi.

Moreover, Lu Ran could communicate deeply with Mr. Husky.

Thus, Lu Ran often liked to make Mr. Husky undergo some unconventional training.

For example, following him in learning swordsmanship.

After all, ancient historical records said that Ya Zi would always carry a precious sword in its mouth, glaring angrily, with the sword hilt in its throat, to boost its own strength.

Frankly speaking, Lu Ran just wanted Mr. Husky to do a bit of Ya Zi cosplay before.

When it came to executing chopping movements, Mr. Husky had already become very proficient, but such a skill was practically useless for a dog, with no real battle value, and prone to causing self-injury.

However, times changed. It was now the era of energy application!

"Originally, I planned to forge the meteorite mine into a sword to defend myself."

"Now, I've changed my mind. When the sword is forged, you'll wield it."

"The Meteorite Iron Sword has good energy conductivity and enhancement effects. I would waste it, but you'll make perfect use of it."

"You strive to be a Sword Dog, and I'll mimic your swordsmanship to gain the abilities of a Beast Swordsman like you. Perfect."

Lu Ran felt like a genius.

"Erh wu..." Holding the sword in his mouth, Mr. Husky looked disbelieving. He didn't fully understand, but he got the idea, old business anew. But in its heart, it always felt that making a dog practice swordsmanship was not something a person should do. It kept that grudge in mind.

"Everything is possible," Lu Ran declared righteously. "We're both 'evolving,' trying to break the norms. Those who follow the rules too closely end up being the most mediocre! Think about it, when you release your Wind Attribute Power in combination with the sword in your mouth, won't that produce Sword Qi? Who says Doggo can't use a sword!"

Mr. Husky straightened up with respect. Sword Qi? What's that? It sounded very powerful indeed.
