The moonlight faded, and the sun rose.
Soft sunlight landed all over his face. Chen Yuan yawned first, then groggily opened his eyes.
He had slept exceptionally well, and Chen Yuan couldn't help but stretch. Suddenly, he felt a movement on his chest.
He looked down and saw a small head peeking out from his collar. The Twin Flower Concubine was lying on his chest, fast asleep.
Chen Yuan blinked, not quite understanding when the Twin Flower Concubine had left his backpack and quietly crawled into his clothes.
But what's done is done, and he could only smile helplessly.
Who told him to be the 'mama' it had chosen?
Suddenly, staring at the Twin Flower Concubine, Chen Yuan noticed something was off, and his expression turned astonished.
If he remembered correctly, the flower petal ornament on the Twin Flower Concubine's head was clearly purple, and her hair was pink. But at this moment, the colors had swapped.
The ornament had turned pink, and her hair had turned purple.
"What's going on?" Chen Yuan couldn't help but ask.
The sound seemed to disturb the sleeping Twin Flower Concubine. It blinked, revealing a pair of light pink eyes.
In the next moment,
the Twin Flower Concubine's eyes showed a clear smile. It quickly crawled out of Chen Yuan's collar, picked up its pink dress, and hugged his neck tightly.
"Yinyin ~"
The Twin Flower Concubine's changes, before and after, were too obvious, leaving Chen Yuan somewhat confused. Many questions emerged from his mind.
After a long while, he let out a long breath and decided to carefully observe the Twin Flower Concubine's changes in the days to come.
Then, the corners of his mouth turned up, revealing a smile: "Good morning, little one."
"Yin ~"
The Twin Flower Concubine smiled brightly, like a little princess. It picked up its long dress, first bowed to Chen Yuan, and then danced on his chest.
Its figure was slender and graceful, and its petal dress swayed.
Chen Yuan couldn't help but nod in praise: "Your dance is very good."
When the dance ended, Chen Yuan extended his right hand and said, "Come up."
The Twin Flower Concubine didn't understand, but it reached out and hugged one of his fingers.
Then, Chen Yuan raised his right hand and placed the Twin Flower Concubine on his right shoulder.
The Twin Flower Concubine adjusted its pink dress, first nodded to Chen Yuan, and then slowly sat on his shoulder.
Its long dress draped over its body, only revealing a pair of white feet that kept dangling.
The little thing was too small, and it couldn't fly. If it was on the ground, it could easily be trampled by unknown creatures.
In that case, it was safer to sit on his shoulder.
Just right, Spark was standing on his left shoulder, and the Twin Flower Concubine was sitting on his right shoulder.
One on the left, one on the right, the two great protectors were complete.
"Awoo awoo ~"
Cola, who had already woken up and was playing nearby, returned to Chen Yuan's side. When it saw the little thing on his shoulder, it blinked and peered around left and right.
Huh?
Where was that cold little thing from last night?
"Yinyin ~"
Seeing Cola's figure, the Twin Flower Concubine slowly stood up. Its petal-shaped hands picked up its pink dress and smiled, nodding slightly at it, its face adorned with a bright smile that was as warm as a spring breeze.
"Awoo awoo awoo!"
Cola responded excitedly a few times.
Although the little thing in front of it looked very similar to the one from last night, it had only changed colors, but it was definitely not the same one!
Absolutely not!
Chen Yuan, sensing Cola's thoughts, lowered his eyes and said softly, "They are the same."
"Awoo?"
Cola's expression stiffened, and it was immediately dumbfounded.
Their attitudes towards it were completely different. How could they be the same!
Chen Yuan pondered, "Perhaps this is its special characteristic."
Seeing that it was getting late, Chen Yuan prepared to go down the mountain.
Awakening the sleeping Earth Bear, he pointed to the surrounding beehives and said, "I'll take one back."
He had tasted this honey last night, and it was much more delicious than ordinary honey. Moreover, it seemed to have the faint effect of spirit fish, which could improve physical fitness.
In that case, he would take some back for Grandpa.
"Roar roar roar."
The Earth Bear casually waved its hand, then changed its sleeping position and continued to sleep soundly, its thunderous snores ringing out again.
The journey down the mountain was not easy, but after becoming an Intermediate Beastmaster, Chen Yuan's physical fitness had improved to another level, and he did not feel tired.
"Yinyin ~"
The Twin Flower Concubine obediently sat on Chen Yuan's shoulder, its body rising and falling with Chen Yuan's steps, its pair of pure eyes curiously watching everything around it.
Whenever it saw unfamiliar pets, whether birds or small, timid pets hiding in the grass, it would smile and greet them.
What was unusual was that these wild pets, which Chen Yuan often encountered in the past but would quickly run away as soon as they saw him, did not choose to leave. Instead, they stayed in place, seemingly responding to the Twin Flower Concubine's greetings.
"Do other pets naturally have a high affinity for the Twin Flower Concubine?" Chen Yuan thought to himself.
Moreover, sometimes when the Twin Flower Concubine saw flower buds, it would gently wave its petal-shaped hands, causing a faint green glow to sway out, gently and slowly falling on the flower buds.
In the next moment, the flower buds bloomed.
"This is Flourish." Chen Yuan recognized the name of this skill.
Every farmer needs a Wood-type pet that masters the [Flourish] skill.
The Twin Flower Concubine was obviously more than suitable.
But when the Twin Flower Concubine encountered withered or fading flowers, it would also try to use [Flourish] to revitalize them, but [Flourish] could only catalyze life and could not save life that had already passed.
For withered trees to bloom and life to reappear, obviously only higher-level Wood-type skills could do it.
Chen Yuan turned his head and looked at the Twin Flower Concubine, who looked dejected, and smiled slightly: "It's okay, you'll definitely be able to do it in the future."
"Yin!"
The dejected expression on its face disappeared in an instant, and the Twin Flower Concubine smiled sweetly at Chen Yuan.
Occasionally, a breeze would blow, and the Twin Flower Concubine's purple hair hanging down to its waist would sway in the wind. Suddenly, it rose from Chen Yuan's shoulder on the wind.
"Awoo awoo!"
Cola looked up and was immediately shocked.
This newcomer can also fly!
Chen Yuan nervously watched the Twin Flower Concubine take flight, and soon realized that it couldn't actually fly, but could only glide on the wind.
Perhaps it was because the Twin Flower Concubine's body was too soft and light, even a slight breeze could make it fly in the air for a short time.
He quickly extended a finger, and the Twin Flower Concubine grabbed it tightly, sitting back on his shoulder.
Chen Yuan sternly reminded it: "Tell me next time you fly away."
He was too worried about this little thing. It was easy for it to be trampled by other creatures if it walked on the ground, and it could be blown away by the wind if it sat on his shoulder.
It was already afternoon when they returned to the farm.
Chen Yuan first contacted Zhou Xu: "Brother Xu, I've already sent you the video of this mission."
"Okay, the association will reward contribution points based on your specific contribution," Zhou Xu said.
"By the way, Brother Xu, I discovered a new pet in the valley, one that is not yet recorded in the Beastmaster Knowledge section," Chen Yuan said.
Zhou Xu nodded: "Did it appear in the video?"
"Yes."
"Alright, wait for me to organize the video first, and then upload the basic information of this kind of pet beast to the Pet Beast Knowledge section under your name."
"One of the tasks is to explore the situation in the valley. Your discovery of a new pet beast is considered an overachievement, and the contribution points you receive should be unexpected," Zhou Xu said softly.
"Thank you."
The discovery of a new pet beast is not a very novel thing. Nowadays, the Pet Beast Knowledge section records new pet beasts every day, ranging from ordinary quality to lord quality.
However, not long after, Zhou Xu called, surprised and doubtful, "The scene when this pet beast was born was very unusual. Do you know its rank?"
"It's a lord," Chen Yuan said.
"Indeed." Zhou Xu sighed, and then exclaimed, "Your luck..."
But before he could finish, Zhou Xu shook his head again and smiled, "This isn't luck, it's clearly strength."
Even if other Beast Tamers knew that a lord-level pet beast cub would be born here, they couldn't have fought their way out of a group of Servant Bees.
However, according to the images presented in the video, Chen Yuan didn't seem to have much difficulty defeating these Servant Bees, and he could be described as handling them with ease.
Without a single mistake, from start to finish!
"Leave the follow-up work of this task to me, and just wait to get the contribution points," Zhou Xu said, "It shouldn't be less than 200."
"Thank you, Brother Zhou," Chen Yuan said.
Zhou Xu smiled: "The president now wants me to serve only you. The more you do, the better my performance will be."
"So, I'm the one troubling you."
After a slight pause, Zhou Xu suddenly remembered something: "By the way, I have a long-term task here."
"What task?" Chen Yuan asked.
Zhou Xu explained: "After these two rainstorms, the Qinling Mountains will not undergo major changes, so we need to draw a map of the current Qinling Mountains."
"Whether it's experts and scholars entering the Qinling Mountains for research, or Beast Tamers coming here for training and exploration, they all need a detailed map."
Chen Yuan shook his head and smiled wryly: "Brother Xu, drawing maps is a technical job, I can't do it."
Drawing maps is not a simple matter of writing and drawing, it requires a certain level of expertise.
Zhou Xu smiled: "Of course, it's not an ordinary map."
After a pause, he patiently explained: "You only need to draw the general outline of each area of the Qinling Mountains, and then mark some important places and recognizable places, and at the same time indicate the types of pet beasts inhabiting each area and their approximate strength."
"You can even use photos and videos to mark them. Professionals will modify and improve your map later."
"Nowadays, there are very few people who can safely travel through various areas of the Qinling Mountains and mark the habitats of various pet beasts, and you are one of them."
Hearing this, Chen Yuan's eyes lit up.
It didn't seem difficult.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Yuan nodded: "Okay, then I'll take it on."
Zhou Xu smiled: "This is a long-term task, don't rush, take your time."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Yuan summoned all the little guys in the farm to him.
"Let me introduce you, this is your new partner from now on, it's called the Twin Flower Concubine."
"Yin Yin ~"
The Twin Flower Concubine stood on the table, meeting pairs of curious gazes. She was not at all timid. First, she showed a generous smile, then dragged her long skirt and bowed slightly, dancing gracefully on the table.
"Ga Ga ~"
Runrun Duck tilted its head and stared intently, then turned its head to look at its right wing, nodding thoughtfully.
The new little guy is so small, not even as big as my wings.
If I throw it into the fish pond, it will be eaten by the little fishes, right?
Then, Runrun Duck noticed the flower petal headdress on the Twin Flower Concubine's head.
It looks... delicious.
As soon as the thought popped up, Runrun Duck quickly shook its head, shaking away the terrible thought.
"Ga Ga!"
If you encounter trouble on the farm in the future, come find me!
"Yin ~"
The Twin Flower Concubine nodded slightly, and her sweet smile made Runrun Duck's eyes widen, and it instantly became excited.
So... such a cute little guy!
"Ka."
Iron Head carefully looked up and down at the Twin Flower Concubine, storing the latter's appearance and voice into the farm security system.
Its expression was serious, and it nodded heavily, indicating that as long as it stayed on the farm, it would never allow the Twin Flower Concubine to suffer the slightest harm.
"Yin ~"
The Twin Flower Concubine bowed slightly.
"Cluck cluck cluck."
Bean Chicken curiously looked at the Twin Flower Concubine with the chicks. Some of the chicks fluttered their wings, trying to fly onto the table, but Cola quickly stopped them.
Cola shook her head seriously: "Aoo aoo."
Don't scare this little guy.
"Yin."
The Twin Flower Concubine's smile remained unchanged. She nodded to the chicks, immediately causing a commotion. All the chicks tried to fly onto the table to get a close-up with this cute little guy.
Flustered, Cola quickly asked Runrun Duck to help stop the chicks.
"This charm..." Chen Yuan couldn't help but sigh.
This is really a top-level succubus. Whether it's wild pet beasts or the little guys on the farm, they all have maxed out goodwill towards it.
"Chirp."
Spark quietly stood on Chen Yuan's shoulder, its pair of ghostly blue eyes sometimes staring at the Twin Flower Concubine, and sometimes looking at Chen Yuan, revealing many thoughts.
"Okay, the meet-and-greet is over, it's time to get down to business." Chen Yuan clapped his hands, letting the little guys go about their business, and then took the Twin Flower Concubine to the field.
"Can you try to catalyze them?" Chen Yuan pointed to the seventeen luminous fruit saplings in the field.
"Yin ~"
Pure pink eyes stared at these saplings, and the Twin Flower Concubine slowly approached, reaching out her petal-shaped palm to gently caress them.
In an instant, a weak green light emanated from the palm, spreading outward from her body, and soon enveloped all the saplings.
Not long after,
"Yin."
The Twin Flower Concubine whispered softly, her brows furrowed slightly, and her body retreated half a step uncontrollably, almost falling to the ground. Chen Yuan quickly extended a finger to hold her back, helping her maintain stability.
"Are you okay?" Chen Yuan asked with concern.
"Yin." The Twin Flower Concubine smiled and looked back, shaking her head.
Looking up, these saplings were blooming with lush greenery, and seemed to have grown a little taller than before.
Obviously, the Twin Flower Concubine's [Luxuriant] had an effect.
But now the Twin Flower Concubine's level is too low, and the proficiency of [Luxuriant] is low, making it difficult to produce obvious effects, and it is also impossible to catalyze for a long time.
"But it's already enough," Chen Yuan thought to himself.
The Twin Flower Concubine was, after all, just born, and this was just the beginning.
"You're already great, let's continue tomorrow." Chen Yuan looked down at the Twin Flower Concubine, who was slender and had beautiful, girl-like curves, and spoke softly.
"Yin."
The Twin Flower Concubine always had a sweet smile on her face, and whenever Chen Yuan looked at her, the smile would become even brighter.
After trying out the Twin Flower Concubine's catalytic ability, another crucial question was placed in front of Chen Yuan:
What should this little guy be called?
