Chapter 155: Making a Mount
After Zhou Lu made clear his goal, he immediately prepared to set off.
Hua Huo nestled in Zhou Lu's arms, holding Benben and pointing the way to Zhou Lu.
For Zhou Lu, this can be regarded as exercise in disguise.
The firework itself doesn't weigh much, but its volute can be stuffed with something more than ten times its weight.
This is after being reduced in weight by [Lilliput], and the real weight will only be even more outrageous.
Coupled with Benben's weight, Zhou Lu could already feel an obvious sense of heaviness.
Fortunately, for Zhou Lu, this is not completely unbearable.
After all, Xiao Caocao will also use walking vines to help Zhou Lu share part of the weight.
The reason why I hold the fireworks is that I can reach my destination faster, and I want to exercise on the way.
Of course, if you want to move forward faster, it's not impossible.
For example, Hanabi throws out her walking branches, and then flies out with Zhou Lu by shrinking and pulling back.
After using the vine net to slow down, repeat this operation.
Although it is a bit strange, the speed is actually not slow.
I'm just too dizzy.
Fortunately, the destination is not very far from here.
It took Zhou Lu about an hour to arrive near his destination.
He looked at the green-leafed songbird passing by in the air, and suddenly had a bold idea.
If he wanted to challenge all the examiners in three days at the current speed, Zhou Lu would have to hurry up and take his time on the road.
But he can tame a mount here.
Many people have actually done something similar.
Spiritual pets that do not occupy the beast control card can terminate the contract at any time.
Many first- and second-level beastmasters will find ways to subdue a local mount-type spiritual pet on the spot if the radius of their activities is too large after entering the secret realm.
When the things in the secret realm are finished, you can choose to take the newly contracted spiritual pet out of the secret realm, or cancel the contract and let him go free.
If you take it out of the secret realm, since the extra spiritual pet cannot be included in the beast control card, you will not be able to bring it into the secret realm again.
Zhou Lu thought like this, and immediately decided to tame a green-leafed singing bird as his mount for this time in the secret realm.
He always did it as soon as he thought of it.
The purple-eyed flying squirrel has not been seen yet. If this green-leafed singing bird also goes away, wouldn't my trip be in vain?
"Fireworks!" Zhou Lu put down the fireworks in his arms, pointed at the green-leaved singing bird in the distance, and said, "Catch it."
Xiao Caocao understood immediately.
The rank of the Green Leaf Changsong Bird is not high, it is just an ordinary first-level spiritual beast.
But it has the alertness that birds generally have.
After stopping firmly on the branch, its eyes never left Zhou Lu.
Unfortunately, it paid too much attention to Zhou Lu and completely ignored the existence of Hua Huo.
In other words, the branches of Hanabi were ignored.
When it discovered that vines had grown under its feet, it was already too late for the green-leaved songbird to fly away.
The moment it was touched by poison ivy, its consciousness fell directly into dizziness due to the effect of the [Poison Stun] skill, and it fell straight from the branch.
The vine net that Hanabi arranged below perfectly caught the fallen green-leafed songbird.
Looking at this series of crisp movements, Zhou Lu's sense of the Poison Ivy skill suddenly improved a lot.
As the main output skill, the upper limit of its damage is a fatal problem.
But as a skill that assists in capturing and controlling other creatures, combined with the [Poison Stun] skill, it is simply a magical skill!
You have to know that [Poison Ivy] only targets "individuals". Any individual hit by the fireworks vines will be poisoned.
Zhou Lu once tested this skill with the help of Wu Xiaoqing.
This is a skill that can poison fungi.
The dizziness given by Hanabi quickly disappeared.
The green-leafed songbird woke up in a daze, and then found that he was already in the net bag. It’s over!
My bird is finished!
The Songbird thought in despair.
Then it saw a kind-faced human being looking at it with a smile.
"Be my mount for a while." Zhou Lu took out a few bottles of primary growth potions, "These are all for you."
As he said that, he opened one of the potions.
The biological instinct makes the Greenleaf Songbird have a strong desire for the transparent potion in front of it.
But it is also the love for freedom that makes it hesitate when facing this temptation.
"We can sign a temporary beast control contract." Zhou Lu saw that Changsong Bird was already attracted, so he went further and said, "When I leave the secret realm, the contract will be terminated."
With that said, Zhou Lu pointed his finger on the forehead of the singing bird.
The contents of the contract poured into Changsong Bird's brain in detail.
Temporary beast control contract does exist.
Some players in the beast control competition will rent powerful spiritual pets from powerful breeding institutions through this kind of contract to compete.
When the contract reaches the expiry date, it will be automatically canceled.
The spirit beast will also regain its freedom.
Although catching one more spiritual pet is not a big deal for Zhou Lu, it will not put too much burden on his spirit.
But the Green Leaf Songbird is not the perfect mount in Zhou Lu’s mind.
Even if he signed a permanent beast-control contract, he would not spend too much energy cultivating it.
Zhou Lu doesn't want to be the kind of beast master who has a contracted spiritual pet, but completely ignores others and even trades with them at will.
In the end, the green-leafed singing bird could not resist the temptation of the primary growth potion that Zhou Lu took out.
After confirming that he could regain his freedom in five days, he agreed to reach a contract with Zhou Lu.
Siting on the Songbird with Hua Huo, Zhou Lu began to patrol around, looking for traces of the purple-eyed flying squirrel.
The purple-eyed flying squirrel is a small spiritual pet that is very fast.
And unlike the electric mouse, the purple-eyed flying squirrel is one of those cute and fierce spiritual beasts. Even as the main spiritual pet, it is worthy of most spiritual pets.
However, because of its cute appearance, people always overlook its ferocious fighting power.
After searching to no avail, Zhou Lu let the singing bird land on the tree, intending to let Hua Huo use his "connections" to find the nearby purple-eyed flying squirrel.
During the break, Hanabi brought Zhou Lu a plate of nuts.
"Where did you get the nuts?" Zhou Lu didn't remember that he asked Hanabi to bring the nuts.
Hanabi pointed to the tree hole not far away.
Got it there.
How amazing~! Nuts actually grow in tree holes.
"..."
Zhou Lu probably understood what Hua Huo meant and was speechless.
This little hasty man probably robbed someone’s granary...
However, before Zhou Lu could speak, a ray of lightning fell on the branch where the singing bird rested.
Crackling!
The branches were split by lightning.
Fortunately, the singing bird was very alert and took off immediately.
At the same time, a purple flying squirrel appeared in Zhou Lu's field of vision.
Give me my food back! ! !
The flying squirrel bared its teeth at Hanabi.
Zhou Lu’s pupils shrank.
It’s a purple-eyed flying squirrel!
