Chapter 2

“Meow…”

As soon as Xiao Bai left, a big orange cat came down from the second floor with heavy steps.

The chubby big cat had a round face, big eyes and a body full of golden glossy hair. It walked down the stairs slowly and came to Fang Ziyu’s side. It rubbed against his legs and raised its head as it made a sound.

However, what was unbelievable was that it only rubbed against Fang Ziyu gently, but it caused him to stagger.

It wasn’t that Fang Ziyu was too weak, but that this was a mutated orange cat.

“No, Yellow, you can’t eat anymore today. Look at yourself. Do you still look like a cat?”

Fang Ziyu was already too lazy to care about how Yellow almost knocked him down. This guy had already eaten five kilograms of cat food today. He had only mutated for a few days and he already weighed at least fifty kilograms. At this rate, it wouldn’t be a problem for him to crush things.

This was Fang Ziyu’s own pet, an orange cat that was already six years old. It wasn’t a noble breed. It belonged to Fang Ziyu’s grandma when she was alive. After she passed away, Fang Ziyu took it from his parents in the countryside and kept it.

As the manager of the pet store, Fang Ziyu didn’t pursue noble breeds like Ragdolls or British Shorthairs. He thought that he should get a pet that most suited him.

“Meow, meow…”

Yellow raised its round head and looked at Fang Ziyu with a pair of big, amber eyes in confusion, as if it was wondering why Fang Ziyu suddenly changed.

Fang Ziyu squatted down and petted Yellow from head to tail. Hm, petting it felt even better than before after the mutation. After petting it enough, Fang Ziyu gave Yellow a fake fish toy.

“Meow, meow?”

Yellow picked up the fake fish and bit it. After discovering that it was a fake fish, it swept it aside with a disgusted look and scratched Fang Ziyu’s pants with its two furry claws, meowing furiously.

It stared at Fang Ziyu fiercely, as if it was saying, “Poop-picker, are you rebelling? Are you using a fake fish to deceive your cat master? Doesn’t your conscience hurt?”

Fang Ziyu: “…” Didn’t you have fun with the fake fish in the past?

Even cats became so smart after the rise of Spiritual Energy.

Fang Ziyu felt that his future was totally full of darkness.

Feeling helpless, Fang Ziyu could only take out the dried fish that he hid in several boxes and put it in Yellow’s cat bowl.

“Meow, meow…”

As if they smelled the dried fish, the two British Shorthairs in the cage at the door also meowed.

However, Fang Ziyu showed the dignity of a store manager in front of these two ordinary cats.

After throwing two fake fishes over, Fang Ziyu grunted in satisfaction when he saw that the two cats were having fun. He felt that he seemed to have regained his lost face again.

After doing all of this, Fang Ziyu made a cup of black tea, lay comfortably on the chaise longue and turned on the phone.

Even though the world had undergone huge changes, Fang Ziyu didn’t seem to have any awareness at all. He still stayed in the pet store leisurely and lived his boring and relaxing life.

In his words, since even those arrogant Summoners and powerful Chaotic Monsters were dealt with by the country, nothing would definitely happen to him, a good young man who abided by the law, was honest, kept his promises, loved his country, and was dedicated to his work.

Of course, it wasn’t that Fang Ziyu didn’t envy those powerful Summoners, but he understood that it was better not to go out and dig his own grave with his small body and without a powerful pet.

Anyway, as long as he didn’t court death, he wouldn’t be in trouble. Fang Ziyu knew this deeply.

After turning on the phone, the game, “A Guide for Raising Order Spirits,” was still open. After entering the game, it was still on the page of the Personal Center before. Apart from the basic introduction of the Summoner, it seemed that there wasn’t anything else in the Personal Center.

Fang Ziyu then clicked into the “Spirits Raising Guide” page. He wanted to see what the spirits raised in this game that couldn’t be removed looked like.

After opening it, the page was completely blank, with nothing but a camera icon.

Fang Ziyu subconsciously opened the camera.

Do you allow access to the device camera…

Device camera permission granted…

Start scanning…

Please aim the camera at the spirit that needs to be scanned.

“Spirit? The mutated pets?” Fang Ziyu mumbled and pointed the camera at Yellow, who was chewing on the dried fish.

As the scanning line swept twice, an information page about Yellow popped up:

Spirit Species: Orange Cat

Gender: ♂

Level: Level 1

Magic Power: 3

Properties: Nature

Skills: Eating Fish (Description: When the Orange Cat activates the skill of eating fish, Fish Spirits and Fish Monsters below its level will be frozen.)

Suppression: Level 1 Nature-type fish and mutant existence

Evolution Potential: Level 3

Evolution Pathways: Orange Cat King, Big Orange Cat

“Orange Cat King? Isn’t it still just an orange cat…” Fang Ziyu complained and chose the evolution to the Orange Cat King.

More lines of words appeared at the bottom of the screen:

You chose the evolution to the Orange Cat King.

Materials Required for Evolution: The core and corpse of a Level 2 Chaotic Monster, Red Jade Carp, and a Level 2 mutant catmint.

Evolution Required Environment: None

Evolve with Handbook Points: 30 points

There was a picture attached to the evolution materials. Fang Ziyu looked at the picture and looked it up on the computer. He really found the mutated Chaotic Monster, Red Jade Carp, and the mutated catmint.

What made Fang Ziyu a bit surprised was that the name that appeared in this stupid game was actually the same as the name people on the Internet gave the Chaotic Monster mutated from a carp.

Looking at the page on the phone, Fang Ziyu blinked and got up to scan the other pets in the pet store. The game showed detailed information like evolution pathways of every single mutated pet.

“This… Could this be a real pet raising game?” Fang Ziyu mumbled. He understood that this seemed to be a real pet raising game.

“Wait… If this is a real game, then the Summoner mentioned in it is me?” Fang Ziyu swiped through the information.

“Ah, so the game thinks I’m a weakling?” Fang Ziyu suddenly jumped up and even Yellow next to him was startled.

“I’m a weakling? I’m a weakling? How would I possibly be a weakling? This game must be fake. No, I must prove that this stupid game is fake…” Fang Ziyu shouted, unwilling to accept it.

The word “weakling” seemed to have deeply pierced his heart, so his focus seemed to have gone astray.

At this moment, another notification popped up on the game interface.

Game Reminder: The Order Spirits scanned by the player cannot be found in the database. Player is suggested to create Spirit Cards. Precious Handbook Points can be obtained by creating Spirit Cards. Handbook Points can be used directly in the evolution of Spirits and have incredible power.

Seeing the game reminder, Fang Ziyu remembered that the Handbook Points shown in the game before could also be used in the evolution of Spirits. However, he thought that he could only purchase Handbook Points at that time, so he ignored it for a while.

It was impossible for Fang Ziyu, who was known for never purchasing things in games, to pay. However, Fang Ziyu found that he didn’t seem to need to purchase anything at this moment, so he started researching resolutely.

And yet, the starting point of his research had already changed. He changed from thinking it was a bit of a fun game to having the urge to prove that this stupid game was fake.

Fang Ziyu opened the page of “Spirit Handbooks” and rows of displays appeared:

Normal Spirit Handbook: None

Rare Spirit Handbook: None

Precious Spirit Handbook: None

Epic Spirit Handbook: None

Legendary Spirit Handbook: None

Description: Read detailed introductions by holding the names of the handbooks.

Description: The evolution potential of the spirits is not fixed. Please don’t rely too much on this page.

Fang Ziyu pressed “Normal Spirit Handbook” and a detailed introduction appeared next. “All spirits with a potential of Level 1 can create a Level 1 Spirit Card.

Fang Ziyu pressed the names of the other handbooks one by one. He found that the handbooks were categorized into different levels according to the level of the mutated animals, namely the so-called Spirits, which were divided into groups according to the evolution potential.

Those with an evolution potential of Level 2 and Level 3 were classified as Rare Spirits;

Those with an evolution potential of Level 4 and Level 5 were Precious Spirits;

Those with an evolution potential of Level 6 and Level 7 were Epic Spirits;

And those with an evolution potential of Level 8, Level 9 and Level 10 were Legendary Spirits.

Creating a handbook was also very simple. Players only needed to take a photo of the Spirit’s face to scan its relevant information to get a Spirit Card. Players would receive different Handbook Points for every successful Spirit Card, and the amount of points depended on the rarity of the Spirit..
