Chapter 1

Drip drop… drip drop…

It was like the ceiling of a cave was dripping water into a deep pool. A rhythmical sound echoed in his ears.

Liao Zixuan had never experienced such a comfortable sleep before. It felt like an entire century had passed. He subconsciously turned over and yawned.

“Howl…”

Liao Zixuan, whose consciousness was still hazy, didn’t notice the abnormality in his voice. But in the next moment, another cry that sounded like a little girl being frightened woke him up.

“Ah!!”

Thud!

What followed after the scream was the sound of falling. When Liao Zixuan opened his eyes, this was the scene before his eyes.

In the dark cave, a girl who looked to be about thirteen- or fourteen-years-old fell to the ground and curled up opposite him.

She was wearing a very thin and rough hemp garment. She seemed to have stayed in the wilderness for a long time—her clothes were stained with a lot of mud, and there were scratches and holes everywhere.

At that moment, the girl was looking at him with a cautious expression. However, her trembling body revealed her inner fear.

“…?” There was only a big question mark in Liao Zixuan’s mind.

Wasn’t he sleeping soundly at home on his bed after an exhausting sparring session for “Fallen God”?

But this cave, this skinny little girl, and this…

Holy sh*t!

Liao Zixuan looked down and saw his “hairy” hands. Oh no, they should be claws. He cried out in shock, but when the sound reached his mouth, it became…

“Howl!”

“…”

“Howl? Howl?! Howl!! Howl…”

With his last bit of hope, he ran to a pool in the cave. But when he saw his appearance through the reflection in the water…

Holy sh*t!

“Howl!!”

He once again let out a cry of surprise. However, this time, it was no longer a cry of shock, but a cry of joy.

This was… a Dark Flame Wolf?

In the game “Fallen God”, during version 1.0 of Prairie Fire, there was a hidden Boss and a phoenix called “Torch Flame”. They were juxtaposed as the two forbidden lifeforms of the Flame Domain that each dominated their own territory.

Liao Zixuan rubbed his eyes with his claws as if he was dreaming.

He saw himself reflected on the water surface. His entire body was covered in grayish-brown fur. His limbs were short and thick, his head was round, and the sides of his neck were covered with soft fur.

At first glance, he looked like a young black dog. He was quite cute.

But who was Liao Zixuan? As the number one sparring partner in “Fallen God”, he still had this basic professionalism. The young Dark Flame Wolf was indeed inconspicuous and difficult to distinguish. Only people who were extremely familiar with the Dark Flame Wolf could distinguish it through a few details. Liao Zixuan happened to be one of them.

If one were to ask why he was familiar with it? At the end of Version 1.0, many clients of the Summoner Class had spent an exorbitant amount of money just to contract a Dark Flame Wolf as a Summoned Beast. As a sparring partner, Liao Zixuan had naturally accepted many orders.

However, the “Dark Flame Wolves” that players could contract in the game back then were all products that were weakened and castrated. Even so, they were still top tier on the strength rankings.

However, he was clearly…

Had he really transmigrated into a real Dark Flame Wolf cub?!

Wait! No!

Liao Zixuan had never heard of a Dark Flame Wolf being born in such a shabby cave. As if he had realized something, he quickly looked towards the spot where he had woken up after “sleeping”.

When he discovered that it was a stone pillar that looked like an altar, he instantly had a bad feeling.

Wait a minute. It couldn’t be that…

At the thought of this, Liao Zixuan’s suddenly turned his wolf head. His dark golden vertical pupils stared straight at the other person in the cave that he had neglected since a moment ago.

The skinny girl who looked like a refugee from a small, unknown village.

When Liao Zixuan focused his attention, the game interface that he was very familiar with appeared before his eyes.

“…” If one could anthropomorphize Liao Zixuan’s expression at this moment, it would be one of extreme confusion and disdain.

Alas…

This was how things were going to be.

The appearance of the game interface proved three things for Liao Zixuan.

Firstly, this was indeed the game world of “Fallen God”.

Secondly, he had arrived in the “Fallen God” world as the Summoned Beast of a villager who was native to this game world.

Thirdly, …

This villager who was his summoner… was ridiculously weak!

Her level was mediocre and her attributes were terrible. In the game, she was definitely the type of NPC with weak combat ability meant to serve as cannon fodder. No one would bother to look at her.

The only thing worth mentioning was probably her heaven-defying luck attribute. But even Liao Zixuan—who was a professional player in his previous life—couldn’t really understand it.

It didn’t seem right to say that it was powerful—it doesn’t seem to have any other basic attribute functions.

But if one said that it wasn’t powerful…

Liao Zixuan had basically figured out what had happened. It was just that this little villager girl had accidentally walked into the Cave of Inheritance while she was out in the wilderness, which was where they were now.

The so-called Cave of Inheritance was a special way of obtaining a “Class” in the game. It did not require players to complete any prerequisite quests or spend money to prepare any in-game materials.

The player would immediately receive an incomparably precious Class Scroll. There were also some items in the cave that would be useful to the player’s Class.

For example, a Warrior Class player would receive a Refined Rank weapon, a Mage Class player would receive a skill scroll below Grade B, and a Summoner Class player… would receive a free summoning chance.

It was obvious that the countryside girl in front of him, whose clothes were tattered, had relied on the Cave of Inheritance to advance from a “Villager” to a “Summoner” Class. After that, she had used the attached free summoning chance to summon him.

What… what kind of heaven-defying luck was this!

One had to know that if summoning was compared to drawing cards, then this Dark Flame Wolf of his was definitely an SSS-rank. It was five-star among five-star. The probability was probably less than one in ten thousand!

Never mind…

A human would have to acknowledge… Oh, no, a wolf would have to accept its fate now.

He, Liao Zixuan, was known as a God-grade sparring partner in his previous life. He raised those stupid clients singlehandedly to become the bosses of various super guilds. Surely the current him could train a green country bumpkin girl who looked wet behind the ears?

Hur hur, what a joke!

I’m a professional when it comes to training players, akin to an experienced farmer. Even if you’re a sickly skinny little sprout now, I can still nurture you into a juicy cabbage!

With this thought in mind, Farmer Liao moved his little beastly limbs and began moving toward the girl step by step. At the same time, he was planning how he should “plow”.

However, Liao Zixuan had only taken a few steps before he froze.

Because across from him, the village girl who was his summoner, this young woman named Vivian, she… she…

When she saw him, her Summoned Beast, walking towards her…

She turned around and ran!
