Others Tame Beasts, I Tame Demons - Chapter 13
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The potential of this Thorn Grass had actually reached the king level!
This was the rumored individual who could break through the shackles of race, right?
Su Yi was stunned and could not recover.
Initially, he thought that his target this time was a rare pet. He did not expect it to be the most common Thorny Grass in the world!
Seeing that he had been standing rooted to the ground without saying anything, Zhang Xiaotong thought that it was because he was embarrassed. She quickly helped him out of the situation and said, “Su Yi, it’s okay. It’s normal to make a mistake once in a while. At most, we can go look for it elsewhere.”
Hearing her words, Su Yi finally came back to his senses. He suppressed the excitement in his heart and said excitedly, “There’s no need. I believe in my premonition. Since I’m here, I might as well contract the Thorn Grass!”
“Huh?”
Zhang Xiaotong looked at him in shock, unable to react.
Bai Zhining frowned and reminded him, “Logically speaking, it’s up to you what kind of pet you want to contract. However, I still hope that you can consider it seriously and not act on impulse. Thorn Grass is one of the pets with the lowest contract value. It’s a problem whether you can nurture it to the ordinary level. Choosing such an extraordinary creature as a pet is a waste of contract space.”
Su Yi’s decision was difficult for her to understand. In her opinion, he was joking about his future.
“Thank you for your suggestion, but I trust my instincts!” Su Yi said apologetically.
“I’ve said all I have to say. Since you’re still sticking to your guns, be my guest.”
Seeing that he was so insistent, Bai Zhining couldn’t be bothered to say anything else.
“Thank you.”
When Su Yi heard this, he could no longer hold back and immediately walked towards the thorny bushes in front.
“Wait, what are you doing?”
Bai Zhining hurriedly stopped him. “Now is not the best time to capture the Thorn Grass. The Thorn Grass here has already been alarmed by us. Those with potential have long burrowed underground to hide. Those who are still on the ground are almost all mediocre individuals who can’t grow to the ordinary level. I suggest you hide and wait patiently for more than ten minutes. You can capture them after those high-quality Thorn Grass come out again.”
Transcendent creatures were self-aware, and Thorn Grass was not an exception. Moreover, generally speaking, the higher the intelligence, the higher the aptitude.
Thorn Grass was timid by nature. After discovering that humans had intruded, those who were slightly smarter would not hesitate to burrow into the ground. Only those who were stupid would stay on the ground.
Therefore, if they wanted to contract the Thorn Grass, Beast Tamers would usually choose those who knew how to escape. This was basic common sense.
As for the silly ones, no one cared.
Su Yi naturally knew this. In the past, he would not have cared about these things on the ground.
However, with the system, he could clearly see that among these seemingly silly Thorn Grass, one of them had indeed reached the king level. It was definitely not fake!
“Don’t worry, I know that bit of common sense. I just want to see if I can dig out the Thorn Grass that went underground.”
Su Yi shouted back at Bai Zhining before entering the thorny bushes and starting to search for the mud hole left behind by the Thorny Grass.
“…”
Bai Zhining was a little speechless. She increasingly felt that there might be something wrong with this junior’s brain.
The soil here was loose. With the Thorn Grass’s ability, it could easily dig two to three meters underground and move at will. Dig it out? It was really wishful thinking.
“Is he really the best scorer among the fourteen of you?”
Bai Zhining turned to look at Zhang Xiaotong, feeling a little puzzled.
“Su Yi isn’t usually like this…”
Looking at Su Yi rummaging through the thorny bushes, Zhang Xiaotong did not know how to answer.
In the thorns, Su Yi was very nervous.
He seemed to be just rummaging through the mud holes and completely ignoring the Thorn Grasses on the ground, but he was actually approaching his real target bit by bit.
Although he did not know why that particular Thorn Grass did not burrow into the ground, this gave him a chance to subdue it with his bare hands!
Ten meters. Nine. Eight. Seven…
As the time went on, he drew closer to the Thorn Grass.
When there was only one meter left, the Thorn Grass quivered visibly, but in the end, like the other silly Thorn Grasses, it remained on the ground, swaying in the wind.
Now!
Su Yi took a deep breath. He, who had been digging the mud pits, suddenly erupted and pounced at the Thorn Grass.
The Thorn Grass finally realized that something was wrong and immediately wanted to burrow underground.
Unfortunately, it was too late to dig into the ground now!
Su Yi was quick and caught it.
The Thorn Grass was covered in thorns. Even with the leather gloves, Su Yi felt a sharp pain that almost made him let go.
“Senior, come and help!”
He hissed and grabbed with his other hand, trying to pull the Thorn Grass out.
However, this Thorn Grass was far tougher than he had imagined. Even if he tried his best, he could barely stop it from continuing to burrow into the ground.
The Thorn Grass struggled desperately. Seeing that it could not break free, it suddenly grew several stems as thick as fingers and wrapped them around his neck.
These stems were covered in sharp thorns. If they really entangled him, even if Su Yi was not strangled, his neck would be bloody.
Damn!
He was startled.
It was indeed a little difficult to deal with an extraordinary creature with bare hands, even if this Thorn Grass was only at the Apprentice level.
But even so, he was still unwilling to let go. This was a f*cking wild pet with king-level potential!
“Look out!”
Seeing that the Thorn Grass was about to wrap around his neck, Bai Zhining suddenly rushed in front of him like the wind. At the same time, she pulled out her military dagger and nailed the stems to the tree.
“Thank you.”
Su Yi thanked her and looked at the struggling Thorn Grass. He heaved a sigh of relief and smiled. “Stop struggling. It’s useless. Be my pet in the future. I definitely won’t disappoint you.”
“Contract array, rise!”
Su Yi shouted and a mysterious six-pointed star array appeared out of thin air, enveloping the Thorn Grass.
“Su Yi…”
Zhang Xiaotong had also rushed over. When she saw this, she opened her mouth to say something, but she swallowed her words.
She did not understand. She did not understand at all. Didn’t she say that these silly Thorn Grasses on the ground did not have much potential? Why did Su Yi still capture one? And he was so desperate!
Like her, Bai Zhining didn’t understand either.
What puzzled her the most was that Su Yi looked very excited at this moment, as if he was contracting a rare pet instead of a Thorn Grass.
What a strange fellow.
