Beastmaster: I don’t want to be a breeder!.

Chapter 476 Ambush (3)

Before leaving the storage room, Li Cunxu used his mental power to retrieve the Yin Rat Demon from the nutrient tank.

The Yin Rat Demon's face showed a look of terror and fear, and that terrified rat face actually aroused people's pity.

Li Cunxu was impressed by the subtle and captivating acting talent.

"She's really clever and loves to act."

Li Cunxu caught the Yin Rat Demon and threw it into the pet bag.

Li Cunxu took the Yin Rat Demon away not to contract it or covet its legendary talent [Demon Wisdom], but to rid people of a hidden danger.

In fact, the Yin Rat Demon, which possesses the talent of demonic intelligence, is the least suitable pet to be contracted. Even if someone gave Li Cunxu a legendary Emperor-level resource, Li Cunxu would not contract it.

Anyone who covets its talent and contracts it will surely suffer a backlash.

Demonic pets have a natural tendency to devour their masters, especially the more intelligent ones. They surpass other demonic pets in this regard. These clever demonic pets will constantly plot to devour their masters until the beast tamer dies as a result of their schemes.

History has proven this point: demonic pets with supernatural intelligence cannot be contracted, and even giants and emperors cannot withstand their scheming.

A giant tamer from the Age of Giants believed that his immense power would make his intelligent demon pet submit to him. However, he was outsmarted; the intelligent demon killed him, emptied his brain, and turned him into a puppet.

Yes, giants can also be beast tamers, but most giants are so powerful that they disdain raising beasts. They can use the resources themselves, so why share them with beasts?

Therefore, the art of beast taming did not flourish in the hands of giants, and there were very few giant beast tamers.

At the end of the Age of Giants, the Titan King angered the World Will, which punished them by making the giant race unable to become Beastmasters and instead turning them into pets that could be contracted by Beastmasters.

Why is it said that the Yin Rat Demon, which took away the demon's intelligence talent, eliminated a hidden danger for people?
Demonic pets will receive the reward of Hell's Will by killing, thus enhancing their potential.

The magnitude of the reward varies depending on the target of the killing.

The highest rewards were given to dragons and giants, followed by the dominant human race of this era.

Therefore, once this demonic rat with its innate intelligence grows up, it will surely slaughter the human race.

Li Cunxu was almost certain that once this Yin Demon Rat reached its later stages, several cities would be destroyed because of it, and at least tens of millions of people would die.

There are similar experiences in history that can be referenced.

The cunning demon from the Age of Giants, after killing the Imperial Giant Beastmaster, secretly created conflict and manipulated war, instigating an unprecedented war of giants in which a million giants perished in its war plot.

How many giants were there back then? Only five million giants.

One-fifth of the giants died because of the demonic beings.

Afterwards, the Demon of Wisdom, with its monstrous cunning, outwitted the giant gods, and then, despite being pursued by the giant pantheon, escaped unscathed, retreated to hell, and became a demon god.

"The Sima family is really something. The lessons of history are still fresh in our minds. They created such a monster demon pet, and they didn't even put it to death on the spot."

Guided by the researcher, Li Cunxu arrived at the storage room where the failed demon pets were kept.

As soon as he entered the room, Li Cunxu stared at a green nutrient tank and didn't look away.

Inside the nutrient tank, a small whale, about the size of a soccer ball, was swimming happily in the nutrient solution. Noticing the door open, the little whale looked on with curious eyes.

Li Cunxu saw simple kindness in the eyes of the baby whale. He saw pure kindness in the eyes of a demonic pet.

At this moment, Li Cunxu was absolutely certain that this little whale was the tenth pet beast he wanted to contract.

Li Cunxu looked at its panel.

[Pet]: Fear Whale
[Attributes]: Light, Spirit, Demon.

[Level]: Black Iron Level 3
[Talent]: Heart of Perfect Kindness (Purple)

[Status]: Life expectancy severely reduced (three years remaining)
[Skills]: Angelic Light, Terrifying Whale Roar.

[Potential]: Low-grade silver
[Introduction]: A demon pet modified from the blood of a benevolent angel. Due to the conflict between the blood of the benevolent angel and the blood of the demon, its lifespan potential is severely reduced.

Li Cunxu noticed that the first thing was the innate goodness of the heart.

A pet with a benevolent heart will always be kind and will never become evil. It also possesses an unparalleled affinity for interacting with other living beings.

This talent is a perfect match for the Holy Feast.

Consuming the Holy Communion will increase one's lifespan, but it has drawbacks. After consuming it, pride, rage, and other seven emotions will be amplified. However, if one has a heart of perfect goodness, consuming the Holy Communion will have no drawbacks.

Why did Li Cunxu prefer to choose a demon pet with the talent of "Ultimate Goodness" instead of a benevolent angel whose entire race possessed the talent of "Ultimate Goodness"?

Good angels eating the Holy Communion at the devil's feast, isn't that without its drawbacks?
Indeed, there are no drawbacks to good angels eating the Holy Communion of the devil, but it's also useless for good angels to have their lifespan increased.

Good angels are inherently long-lived, belonging to the long-lived species, with an average lifespan of five thousand years. Even without the Demon Feast and Holy Meal, a good angel can outlive a beast tamer.

Moreover, if a good angel has done many good deeds in life, he or she may be reborn as an immortal, eternal angel.

Increasing the lifespan of benevolent angels is not particularly useful. On the contrary, increasing the lifespan of demonic pets is very useful. Demonic pets have many powerful skills that come at the cost of consuming lifespan. Increasing their lifespan enough will allow demonic pets to unleash their full potential.

Furthermore, Li Cunxu knew of a demon-type divine skill that consumed lifespan. With that divine skill combined with the Demon Feast Holy Feast, Li Cunxu was confident that he could cultivate an emperor-level demon pet in a very short time.

"It has only three years left to live, and its potential is only low-grade silver. No wonder it has been classified as a defective product."

Seeing that it had a lifespan of three years, Li Cunxu simply ignored it. Even if it only had one hour left to live, he could save it with the Demon Feast Holy Meal.

As for the potential of the low-level white-eyed creature, it was not a big deal for Li Cunxu. Xiao Ruan's talent was a hundred times worse than his back then, but now he was on the verge of becoming an emperor.

What was nothing to Li Cunxu was a devastating blow to the research institute.

In their view, the transformation of the Fear Whale was a complete failure.

Every adult Dread Whale possesses the strength of a King, but now they can only reach the Silver level. What is this if not a failure?
There's also talent; the change in talent was also a major failure.

The Fear Whale race's fixed talent [Fear Giant Body (Purple)] allows it to absorb fear, causing its body to grow larger day by day. The larger its body becomes, the more terrifying its combat power becomes.

The terrifying behemoth was transformed into a benevolent heart with no combat power enhancement, which made the researchers responsible for modifying the terrifying whale regret their decision.

Li Cunxu removed his invisibility cloak and appeared before the little demon whale.

The little whale was startled by the sudden appearance of the person and shrank back, but it couldn't resist its curiosity and went closer to examine the person with its big eyes.
