Chapter 60 - 60 Request for a Contract

60 Request for a Contract

At the same time, a notification also appeared before Su Ming.

[This Turtle requests a contract to become your pet. Do you accept?]

Su Ming looked at the notification before him and was instantly stunned. A hint of shock appeared in his eyes.

This was the first time he had seen a pet initiate a contract with its master.

It might be an exaggeration to say that he had spent a tremendous amount of effort to tame Da Bai back then, but it had still taken him a lot of effort.

In his previous life, he had also heard of some examples of pets taking the initiative to request a contract.

However, those were basically all pets in the game. They could even be described as Divine Beasts.

However, this cute, ruffian-like Benben Turtle in front of him was wearing sunglasses and had the face of a Squirtle from the anime.

No matter how he looked at it, it did not look like a Divine Beast, right?

Just as Su Ming’s mind was racing with thoughts, the Turtle under his feet seemed to have become a little impatient from waiting and patted his foot again.

Once it was done, it even pointed at Su Ming with its chubby little claws and let out a series of disgruntled sounds.

It was as if he was saying, “What are you doing?” Hurry up and sign a contract with me!

Su Ming was amused by its reaction and could not help but shake his head and chuckle. He then signed the contract.

It was not a bad thing to have an extra pet.

Even if this Turtle was not of much use, it was at least a professional when it came to acting cute.

Once they signed the contract, Su Ming could finally understand what it was saying.

“Hey, hey, where did you guys come from? Why are you wandering around my lake?”

“Also, do you have anything to eat now? I’m starving!”

Su Ming felt the thought that belonged to the Turtle in his head.

Then, he looked at the ‘ganster’ Turtle in front of him, who was wearing sunglasses and had his hands on his waist. He shook his head helplessly.

“You’re really a big shot.”

Su Ming rubbed the center of his brows and cast his gaze at Da Bai, who was behind him.

The Turtle followed his line of sight and looked toward Da Bai. Then, it slowly made its way toward Da Bai with small, unsteady steps.

Then, a scene that made Su Ming speechless appeared.

A hint of fear appeared on Da Bai’s face as he faced the Turtle that was several times smaller than him, and he began to retreat.

Su Ming rubbed the center of his brows, and there was a slightly helpless expression on his face.

He did not quite understand. Da Bai had always been so ferocious, whether it was in front of the Tiger herd or when he was charging into the enemy lines.

How did it end up like this?

This Turtle walked up to Da Bai, seemingly very satisfied with Da Bai’s fear of it.

It even took off its sunglasses and nodded slightly.

Su Ming was amused by the two beasts’ looks. He immediately picked up the Turtle and sat on Da Bai’s back.

The Turtle did not seem to have expected Su Ming to hug it so suddenly.

It was slightly taken aback at first, then it leaned into Su Ming’s arms.

Su Ming did not care about its reaction. He took out a piece of dried meat and placed it in front of the Turtle.

Then, he looked at the lake not far away.

“You should be an amphibian, right?”

The Turtle raised its round head and asked with its mouth open, “Ya?”

Su Ming looked at him with a slightly resigned expression and said, “It means that you won’t die after you leave the water, right?”

This Turtle reacted, and with a fearless expression, it waved its hand. “Yaya!”

“I won’t!”

Su Ming automatically translated its words.

Once he was at ease, Su Ming patted Da Bai’s butt and told it to continue moving towards their destination.

Su Ming lowered his head and looked at the Turtle. He asked curiously, “Where’s your family?”

The Turtle stopped chewing on its dried meat and lifted its head to look at Su Ming in a daze.

The meaning in his eyes was, “What is family?”

Su Ming said, “Just pretend I didn’t ask.”

After that, in the boundless wilderness.

One man and two beasts continued to steadily advance.

After the Turtle ate a piece of dried meat, it patted its stomach, indicating that it could not eat anymore.

Then, its stomach slowly bulged, and its mouth opened slightly.

Su Ming cast a glance at it and knew that the little fellow wanted to burp.

He simply placed it on his lap and let it sit in a relatively comfortable position.

Then, the Turtle opened its mouth wide.

However, what gushed out was not the Qi Su Ming had expected, but an incredibly violent stream of water!

Pfft!

The violent water suddenly gushed forward, forming a huge water pillar.

At first, Su Ming was a little stunned. When he looked at the Turtle on his leg, which was continuously spraying water with its mouth wide open, a hint of shock flashed in his eyes.

This water pillar was extremely fast and violent. It was about half a meter wide and had a shooting range of more than ten meters.

After ten meters, the water pillar’s momentum finally slowed down a little.

After a long while, the Turtle finally finished burping.

It patted its round belly in satisfaction, then found a comfortable spot in Su Ming’s arms and fell asleep.

Su Ming looked at the Turtle that was sleeping peacefully in his arms and felt a little lost.

It was exactly like how Squirtle would have used water gun, but it was more powerful than he had imagined.

And most importantly, how did such a small body contain so much water?

Su Ming looked at the large puddle that had formed on the ground not too far away, and his thoughts were in a mess.

However, even though he was curious, Su Ming did not disturb the Turtle’s rest.

One man and two beasts continued forward.

They hurried until the sun set, and the sky gradually darkened.

Su Ming looked at the map. He was about two hours away from the magnetic stone mine.

After some thought, Su Ming did not hurry on with his journey.

The sky was already dark, and it would be inconvenient to continue on the road.

Besides, he did not need to rush to the magnetic field.

As he thought about it, Su Ming observed his surroundings and had Da Bai walk up a hill.

The environment on the hillside was not bad. The terrain was the highest point in the vicinity, and one could look into the distance from a high position.

In addition, there was a bush not far behind the hill.

The human and two beasts wanted to rest, so it was more convenient to rest in the bushes.

After Su Ming had the slightly tired Da Bai take a walk in the bushes, he brought along the Turtle that had just woken up and walked up the hill.

As he walked up the hill, Su Ming looked at the endless moonlit night before him and sighed in his heart.

Sometimes, he really could not tell the authenticity of the images of the Origin of Humans: Horde.

Was the place he was in a game or reality?
