Panlong, starting from becoming Lin Lei's golden finger

[Congratulations, host, on completing the mission. White Energy Points +100]

"It actually succeeded?" Delin looked at the scene before him, feeling somewhat surprised. "Linley, you're incredibly lucky. Once this Shadow Rat grows up, it'll be enough for you to become a level seven mage."

Delin had a smile on his face.

Shadow Mouse, a low-level magical beast, doesn't have high growth potential.

Even in the Dark Forest, there aren't many Saint-level rat-like magical beasts.

But reaching level six is ​​definitely achievable, and with good luck, level seven is not out of the question.

But that's enough.

If a mage can reach level seven, their combat power will undergo a qualitative change.

"Little guy." Linley smiled and scooped up the Shadow Mouse with his right hand. "Now that we've signed an equal contract, how should I address you? What's your name?"

"Be...Be..."

"Bebe?" Linley raised an eyebrow. "Then you'll be called Bebe from now on."

Clearly, this shadow rat is not very old; it can't even speak properly when communicating with its soul.

Inside the system space, Lin Ke casually took a picture of Lin Lei and Bei Bei.

Lin Lei's biggest advantage in the early stages was not the Panlong Ring, nor his teacher Delin.

It was Beibei.

The master of the Magnolia Plane, a descendant of the Beirut God, and the second God-Devouring Rat across countless planes.

Leaving aside the abnormal growth of mythical beasts.

Beirut's background alone provided Linley with a great deal of convenience.

Of course, this kind of help is only invisible.

In fact, if it weren't for the equal contract, Linley would probably have been killed the moment Beirut discovered him.

Even after Linley became a god, Beirut didn't actually value him that much.

It wasn't until Linley returned to the Four Divine Beasts family and made a name for himself in Hell that Beirut truly recognized him.

Inside the system space, Lin Ke waved the photo in his hand, tapping his left fingers on the sofa armrest.

"Beirut should be discovering Bebe's existence soon." Lin Ke leaned back on the sofa. "Beirut will definitely go through Lin Lei's memories, so I need to be prepared."

Thinking of this, Lin Ke snapped his fingers with his right hand.

In the soul space that Linley could not sense at this moment.

A memory created by Lin Ke appears.

This memory is entirely composed of Lin Lei's past experiences.

But Lin Ke's existence was deleted.

"Actually, if Beirut hadn't been pushed so hard and been so difficult to control, Beirut would have been the most suitable host."

Lin Ke looked somewhat regretful.

Unlike Lin Lei, this kid.

Beirut has already spent countless years wandering through hell.

They even snatched food from the jaws of the Lord of Light, stealing the corpses of the Four Divine Beasts and the divine status of the main god.

At that time, Lin Ke's energy points were exhausted, and he was unable to gain Beirut's trust.

It might even be rejected by Beirut as a means of the Lord of Light.

This would actually waste more time.

"However, I'm cooperating with Lin Lei quite well now." Lin Ke glanced at his energy point balance and smiled. "After the contract, I gained another 9900 energy points."

Although it's still far from the body Lin Ke envisioned, it's already a good start.

Meanwhile, Lin Lei had successfully formed a contract with Bei Bei and couldn't wait to return home.

With 100 energy points credited to his account, Linley couldn't resist exchanging them for dragon blood and awakening his dragon warrior bloodline.

However, late at night, when Lin Lei proposed to exchange for dragon blood, Lin Ke stopped him.

"Lin Lei, you should think this through first." Lin Ke crossed his legs and looked at Lin Lei outside. "After 12 hours of continuous pain, you first need a secret space where you won't be disturbed by others. At home, that's definitely not an option."

Lin Ke's words startled Lin Lei.

"I understand, Brother Lin Ke." Lin Lei lowered his head and thought for a moment. "I will talk to my father tomorrow and ask him to give me a day to rest."

After saying that, Lin Lei lay down on the bed, almost forcing himself to sleep.

Early the next morning.

At breakfast time, Linley washed up and sat in the dining room, looking at Hogg sitting in the main seat, he hesitated several times as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

"Father!" Finally, as breakfast was over and Hogg was about to leave, Linley spoke up: "I would like to ask you for a day off."

Linley lowered his head, not daring to meet Hogg's gaze.

"Taking leave?" A hint of doubt flashed in Hogg's eyes. "What are you going to do? Hadley and the others' training won't be interrupted. What can you do by yourself?"

Hogg thought Linley was going to skip work and go out with his friends, and his expression gradually turned somewhat unpleasant.

"No, no, it's not Father," Lin Lei quickly shook his head. "I, I am..."

Lin Lei stammered; he didn't know how to say it.

Brother Lin Ke said that his existence must not be exposed.

"Can't say anything?" Hogg asked seriously. "In that case, all your classes will be doubled today."

With that, Hogg turned to walk outside.

Inside the system space, Lin Ke couldn't help but roll his eyes at the sight.

To be honest, Hogg's situation perfectly demonstrates that sometimes boarding school isn't so bad.

To be honest, if Linley hadn't entered Ernst College and lived with his three brothers, it would have been a different story.

With a father like Hogg, Linley had lived with the Baruch family since childhood.

I'm afraid they're really going to be driven crazy.

"Linley, is that all you're going to say?" Link's voice echoed in Linley's mind. "You said you were taken in as a disciple by a magician..."

"Father." Linley heard the words in his mind and quickly took a few steps to catch up with Hogg. "It's like this, I've been taken as a disciple by a magician, and I'm going to learn from my teacher today."

Linley's words made Hogg's expression even more unpleasant.

Not only are they being naughty and wanting to skip class to play, but they've even started lying?

However, Lin Ke had already anticipated Hogg's reaction.

Therefore, after Linley finished speaking, he began to cast magic on the ground in the distance.

"Ground Thrust!"

As Lin Lei finished speaking, the ground five or six meters away from the two of them rose high.

Three spikes, each over forty centimeters tall, burst forth from the ground.

Hogg's original words of instruction were stuck in his throat.

"Linley, you, you..." Hogg turned around, looking at Linley with disbelief, "You're really... a mage's apprentice?"

"Yes, Father." Linley nodded. "This magic is what my teacher recently taught me."

"Good, good, good!" Hogg was overjoyed. "Linley, I've approved your leave for today, and from now on, all your academic studies are suspended. You can allocate your time freely."

Hogg's sudden excitement caught Linley off guard.

"Go quickly, Linley," Hogg said with a smile, stepping forward. "Don't keep your teacher waiting."

Inside the system space, Lin Ke rolled his eyes.

His initial arrogance followed by his later obsequiousness is laughable.

However, Lin Ke didn't directly complain to Lin Lei in his mind.

This is, after all, Lin Lei's father.

However, Lin Ke was thinking about something else right now.

Should we stop Hogg from going to his death?
