Chapter 1613 The True Meaning of Taming

Generally speaking, taming monsters requires both sticks and carrots.

The reason why [Taming] is difficult is that to tame a monster is to treat it as a slave, and [Freedom] is the nature of life. Even creatures that are born to be slaves will have the desire for freedom.

And the desire for freedom will eventually lead to rebellion.

But that was the dregs of the old era that had been eliminated. In order to [tame], the foreigners brought reforms, turning the unequal taming relationship into an equal trading relationship.

Providing food and combat power at the same time is like the symbiotic relationship that exists in nature, which is mutually beneficial and win-win.

What this method gets is not [loyalty] but [help]. As long as this symbiotic relationship can provide amazing benefits, high-level monsters will choose to help without reservation for their own benefit.

Nowadays, the beast tamer Stranger uses this method to contract a large number of high-level monsters.

This mutually beneficial and win-win approach, in addition to obtaining help from high-level monsters, can also bring unexpected surprises.

For example, when a high-level monster thinks that the tamer is on its side, it will take the tamer's interests into consideration and lead the tamer to some quite hidden upgrade points or mining sites for rare materials.

In fact, this method reverses the cause and effect. Generally, a contract is signed first, and then the combat effectiveness is considered to provide materials to strengthen the tamed monster. But now, benefits are provided to the monster first, the monster's favor is gained, and then the monster is willing to enter into a contract.

Perhaps this type of contract was the original way of animal training, or even the way the first animal trainers were born. It's just that for a long time, animal trainers put the cart before the horse in pursuit of convenience and efficiency.

With the help of Chicken's translation, Blaze and Sky Kingfish reached a friendly agreement: work one day and rest one day, provide three meals a day of luminous food on weekdays, and only provide ordinary food on rest days.

It’s not that the stock of luminous food is not enough to sustain the sky kingfish’s three meals a day, quite the opposite is true.

As one of the most advanced professions, the chef profession is quite popular among foreigners. In addition, as a manufacturing profession, the chef profession needs to obtain special experience points by making dishes to upgrade, so the luminous dishes that can provide double experience are produced in large quantities.

If the strangers cannot eat them themselves, they will sell them to [Hermes' Traveling Hat], so [Hermes' Traveling Hat] has a large inventory of glowing dishes. Because of the durability of the glowing dishes themselves, that is, the issue of freshness, they will regularly make expired glowing dishes into glowing fertilizers.

The reason why the sky kingfish is not given luminous food on rest days is because of what Herbie taught. Only by letting the sky kingfish know the benefits of going to work will the sky kingfish actively want to go to work.

After eating glowing food, it is inevitable that there will be a sense of gap when eating ordinary food.

In addition, there is the old test. If the Sky Kingfish intends to grab the luminous food directly, it should not be used frequently and should be fired immediately.

Unfortunately, the monsters are usually killed when they are fired. There is nothing you can do about it. If the monsters know how to grab the luminous food, they will keep attacking and grabbing it.

I'm not afraid of thieves stealing, but I'm afraid of thieves thinking about it.

But Blazer was not worried about the sky kingfish. He rode on the chicken's back and led the way, while the sky kingfish followed behind them, drooling as it flew, apparently thinking about the glowing dishes for three meals a day.

"It seems that it is very satisfied with its free and unruly choice." Blaze retracted his gaze and teased.

"I thought it would be a little more unconvinced and reluctant, but it actually looked quite happy."

"What's so strange about this?" The chicken shook its head and said, "You are of noble status. You challenged it head-on and captured it alive without harming its life." "Although you didn't let it go repeatedly and gave it more chances to challenge, the power you showed was enough for it to understand the gap in power between you and it."

"After that, you are not making it a slave, nor a subordinate, but a partner. You give it enough dignity, and it has no reason to disagree."

"Besides, even if you are the king of the wild, you still have to live a life of risking your life. You don't know if you will have food to eat next time and if you don't know if you will have tomorrow after today, how can you have three meals a day?"

"Really?" Blaze thought.

He thought of the lionesses that already belonged to him. If those lionesses also lived such a life and were still managing the border area of ​​the Midsummer Galaxy for him, he would feel a little guilty.

I'll have to go see it after this is over.

Suddenly, a shrill alarm sounded. Before it could react, the sky kingfish, which had just been drooling and fantasizing about its three meals a day, took the lead in moving. It flicked its tail and stood in front of the chicken and Blazer, entering a state of alert.

"Well, there's nothing to say about his work attitude."

Blaze nodded and fired a flare.

That was the alarm of the floating island. It didn't exist originally. It was installed for the safety of the floating island after the strangers came. The signal flare was to cancel the alarm.

However, even after the flares were fired, the alarm did not stop. Instead, several people riding flying monsters appeared and approached. It seemed that the threat posed by the old rival race, the Sky King Fish, was too great.

Blaze waved his hand and asked the Sky Kingfish to move aside. The man riding the flying monster approached. It was a stranger.

Although he didn't know these strangers, they knew him and the misunderstanding was resolved in a few words.

As expected, the stranger's face was full of regret. It seemed that he was looking forward to an air battle.

Blaze could also understand that there were only 1000 passes to the floating island a day, and they were limited in time and quantity, so it was difficult to get one, so the strangers who got one naturally hoped to get as much as they wanted before the pass expired.

Some strangers want materials for the sea of ​​clouds monster, while others want something simpler: an exciting air battle, enjoying the thrill of falling from a height of ten thousand meters and then being pulled back into the sky.

But the strangers will not return empty-handed.

Blaze asked a stranger after taking a look at the Sky Kingfish.

"Excuse me, does the person who gets the pass every day have a special one or some kind of chat magic?"

"Ah, a chat group." The stranger touched the back of his head, and after choosing his words, he said, "Because there are only 1000 passes for the floating island, most people are not interested in such a large number of copies. Those who are interested gathered together to form a group chat. The group chat magic is convenient for communication."

"We arrived first and were responsible for notifying others when we encountered a large group of sea of ​​​​cloud monsters."

"If possible, please notify them all to come to the floating island. There will be a big battle soon."
