Starting with the Broken-Winged Frost Butterfly: Beast Taming

"What? The little tiger has arrived?"

Zhu Ran was caught off guard.

The base isn't even finished yet, but the employees are already at work.

How can this be done?

"Boss Zhu, Boss Zhu, are you listening?" the deliveryman urged.

"I'm here." Zhu Ran paused. "Where are you? Is it convenient to take you to the lab building?"

"It's convenient, I'm at Chung-Du University."

Simple communication.

Half an hour later.

A young man in red delivered a safe.

"Boss, please try to select candidates with timid or cautious personalities, as per your requirements."

"But as you know, nothing is absolute. Every animal has a unique personality, and even the most professional zookeeper can't guarantee they won't make a mistake. If you feel it's not suitable, we can discuss exchanging it..."

Zhu Ran nodded.

Based on this level of service, the deal is pretty good.

Open the safe.

Twenty-two sealed cards were stacked together.

"Come out, little tiger!"

"Come out, little tiger!"

……

Although the target is the juvenile.

Even after summoning twenty-two times in a row, Zhu Ran's forehead was still covered in a thin layer of sweat, and his mental energy had been depleted by more than a quarter.

"roar!"

The roars grew louder and louder.

Twenty-two tiger cubs were scattered throughout the laboratory.

Some were huddled together in a ball;

Some of them bristled and roared;

The worst of them all was that two tigers seemed to be locked in a fierce battle, biting each other's fur and leaving their bodies covered in blood and scratches.

"Replace these two that are fighting."

Getting into a fight at the drop of a hat has nothing to do with being cautious or timid.

unless……

Unless an honest tiger is pushed to the limit, it will jump over the wall.

But Zhu Ran was too lazy to speculate.

Isn't a no-questions-asked exchange policy a great option?

"Okay, okay."

The deliveryman was wiping his sweat.

He is not an ordinary deliveryman.

Instead, they serve Chung-Du University as "super errand runners," enjoying permanent positions and high salaries.

These two are truly an eyesore! Who even picked them? I have to complain about them when I get back!

"As for the rest..."

Zhu Ran scanned the area.

More than half of the tiger cubs met his gaze, instinctively drooping their ears and hastily dodging away.

The two most timid ones were so scared that they wet themselves, spilling scarlet liquid all over the ground, and a faint stench filled the air.

There were also a few others with furrowed brows and wide-open eyes, observing the unfamiliar environment and their unfamiliar owner in their own way, looking very cautious.

"That's fine for now. If I find any discrepancies within three days, I'll pick them out." Zhu Ran signed for the package.

"Alright!"

A self-proclaimed super errand runner took two fighting tigers and jumped off the fifteenth floor.

The laboratory doors were closed again.

The loud noise scared the two tiger cubs so much they wet themselves.

Zhu Ran stood with his hands behind his back, observing silently.

Because no instructions were received.

In addition, the environment was too unfamiliar.

Twenty little tigers were pawing at the instruments, banging on the walls, hiding under the cabinets, hugging each other and licking their fur... it was a complete mess.

"Shizuka, Nobita, you two are in charge of discipline. If anyone misbehaves again, make them stand in the corner as punishment."

The two fluffy tigers, hiding in Zhu Ran's arms, peeked out one after the other.

"Huh?"

Suddenly seeing her former self, still in a huge group, Shizuka was a little confused.

Then it tentatively called out.

The five little tigers closest to Shizuka immediately looked up, and when their eyes met Shizuka's, their expressions became blank.

Are these... fellow countrymen?

Even though their physical features are completely different, why do I feel a sense of familiarity with them...?

"Ugh!"

Shizuka calmed down and let out a second call.

Sister Xuexi is the "Queen" who commands the entire Zhu Family Army.

And isn't Shizuka also a "goddess" among the tigers?

ꕤᴗᴗ)♡

Simply place the tiger's paw on its cheek, mimicking a face-washing motion, in conjunction with the skill "acting cute".

Stare~

All the little tigers turned their heads.

My goodness!

How can there be such adorable fellow human beings in the world!

It's like a group of homeless people suddenly entering the city and accidentally bumping into the city lord's daughter, dressed in gorgeous silk and satin, with a face like a peach blossom, and a beauty that could topple kingdoms.

In an instant, all eleven male tiger cubs revealed their lecherous nature, collectively becoming excited.

And a nine-headed female tiger cub.

Although it didn't ignite hormones.

But he stared intently at Shizuka, looking deeply moved and filled with longing.

"Tiger form, former kin, superior suppressing inferior, mental charm... all these buffs are maxed out, no wonder they're all so pathetic." Zhu Ran chuckled.

"Waaaaah~"

Da Xiong mustered up his courage and greeted them.

Those heart-shaped eyes deepened in color, and the heart-shaped ripples continued to sway.

"roar!!"

Nine female tiger cubs surrounded Zhu Ran like madmen.

In their eyes, Zhu Ran saw the fervor of a young girl chasing after her idol.

It was as if Nobita had casually waved his claws a few times.

They would faint with a blissful expression.

"This is getting more and more outrageous. It hasn't even activated 'Sweetheart Charm' yet, and it's already like this?"

"Other types of juveniles don't look so disheveled when they see the little tiger cub."

Zhu Ran continued testing.

This time, Shizuka and Nobita each used their Sweetheart Charm on a little tiger of the opposite sex.

This skill was originally designed for single-target use, and its effectiveness is maximized when aimed at a single target.

However, under Zhu Ran's guidance, the two skills spread out in a scattering pattern.

Eleven male tiger cubs and nine female tiger cubs, all with faint pink hearts appearing in their eyes.

They didn't get excited and howl, nor did they become so enthusiastic that they jumped around.

Instead of acting normally, they lined up in two columns, staring hostilely at each other's camp.

It seems that all it takes is a command from Shizuka or Nobita.

They will pounce out, fighting bloody battles without hesitation.

"This isn't just mind seduction, it's practically mind pollution."

Zhu Ran attempted to awaken the seal as the holder of the sealed card.

But the results were extremely poor.

In the current state, the two little tigers are more willing to obey Shizuka and Nobita's orders, and his presence as a beast tamer is negligible.

"This is outrageous!"

Zhu Ran gave a soft snort, a mischievous glint in his eye:

"If I can't command you, can't I at least command the 'idols' in your eyes?"

"Shizuka, Nobita, let them do parkour in circles. They need to keep up with their daily exercise. Let's start with 20 kilometers."

The two little tigers nodded obediently.

And so.

Twenty little tigers lined up and started running with their short legs, their faces expressionless for the first few laps.

By the sixth lap, the hearts in their eyes had faded, and they woke up, not understanding what they were doing or why they were spinning in circles.

Shizuka and Nobita, after a few whimpers and two more attempts at being cute, chided each other.

Surprisingly, the little tigers continued running while still relatively conscious, creating a surprisingly harmonious scene in the laboratory.

"Tiger Goddess, Tiger God..."

Zhu Ran smiled and made a call to the purchasing department.

Now that the little tiger has arrived, why not send three of the ten sets of evolution materials ordered so we can start cultivating it in advance?

Zhu Ran called Liang Baizhou again and asked him to come to work.

"Holy crap, I was planning to sneak over to the breeding department next door to learn some tricks of the trade, and the little tiger's already arrived?"

Grandpa Liang, riding his steel giraffe, immediately changed course and headed straight for the laboratory building.
