Please be my partner.

Just then, there was a knock on Osama's office door.

After receiving his confirmation, a young man wearing a black uniform from the Special Affairs Bureau walked in with a stack of documents and said, "Director, the new batch of personnel has arrived. Here are their resumes. They are from seven cities, including Feluo City, Myuton City, and Vero City."

Osama smiled and nodded. After taking the information and casually flipping through it for a moment, he said with satisfaction, "Not bad! Judging from their resumes, many of them have considerable experience and are elite talents capable of standing on their own."

"With their joining, many of our problems can be alleviated."

He then placed the information on the table. On the top page, the following was recorded...

Salim!

Chapter 46 [Soul Interaction]

Three days, Melen stayed in the training room for three whole days.

For no other reason than that the spiritual environment in the practice room was very helpful for his recovery.

In addition, concentrated nutrients and nutritional baths were taken continuously during these three days, and the expenses on these alone were close to 100 gold coins.

However, while the cost is high, the effect is naturally great.

Normally, it would take at least a month to recover from this weak state, but Mellen recovered almost completely in just three days.

Of course, his quick recovery was not entirely due to these potions.

In an independent training ground.

Mellen clenched his fist, unclenched it, clenched it again, and unclenched it again...

He now felt an unprecedented...power!

If before, he was just an ordinary person who exercised regularly, then now, his physical fitness is even close to that of a first-level knight.

More importantly, there has been an even more exaggerated leap in the spiritual aspect.

The reason why such a big change can be brought about is naturally because of the profession of [Wolf Tamer].

Unlike ordinary [Beast Tamers] who can only obtain the basic ability of [Telepathy] after completing the job change, the ability obtained after changing to [Wolf Tamer] is extremely powerful.

That is... [Soul Interaction]!

This is a special ability that both Mellen and Gouzi can enjoy after they sign a contract.

[Soul Interaction] is divided into passive and active aspects.

Passive is a bonus that applies to both parties at the same time.

For Mellen, he can permanently add some of Spike's physical qualities based on his own level of [Wolf Tamer].

The first level adds 10%, the second level adds 20%... and so on.

This addition has no effect on Spike himself.

The main bonus of [Wolf Tamer] is in the mental aspect, while strength, physique, agility, etc. are only secondary.

But even so, the improvement after the job change, combined with the bonus of [Soul Interaction], and Mellen's own foundation, still made his physical fitness close to that of a first-level knight.

Of course, without the huge bonus provided by [Life Force], if he were to go up against a first-level knight, it would be like hitting a rock with an egg.

As for Spike, it can permanently improve his all-around abilities based on Meren's [Wolf Tamer] level.

This 'all-round' includes but is not limited to physical fitness, defensive capabilities, life strength, skill effects, etc.

The first level has a 10% bonus, the second level has a 20% bonus... and so on.

The active ability of [Soul Interaction] was temporarily activated by Mellen when he was attacked by the Polluter for the second time. He called it the ability of "heart to heart".

However, it was only the most basic application at that time, far from the true form of [Soul Interaction].

Now, through [Soul Interaction], Melen can transform his own spirit into tangible power and bless Spike without loss, allowing the latter to completely break through the upper limit of his own strength and race in a short period of time and reach a whole new height!

Of course, using this ability will place a huge burden on Mellen and Spike's mind and body, so it cannot be used for a long time, and after using it, they will fall into a long period of weakness.

This [Soul Interaction] is undoubtedly a magical skill. Although the passive ability is limited by Mellen's current strength and can only improve Spike's all-round ability by 10%, but in general, the improvement in strength is far more than just 10%!

As for Mellen's improvement, although it only improved part of the dog's physical fitness, he will be able to contract a second, third, or even more dogs in the future.

When the level is higher in the future and there are more dogs, maybe among the same level, there will be no one who can beat him with a punch!

I haven't tried the active ability yet, so I don't know what the specific effect is, but just from the description, I can feel how powerful it is!

In addition to the ability of [Soul Interaction], there was another thing that made Melen extremely happy.

For professionals, the most important thing is of course their core abilities, which are related to their professional level.

If you want to improve your core abilities, the most common approach is to practice related core abilities.

Alternatively, improving, researching, and expanding the basic and advanced capabilities derived from core capabilities can also feed back to the former.

However, for the [Wolf Tamers], there is no such thing as basic abilities and advanced abilities. In other words, the dogs that sign a contract with them represent their basic abilities and advanced abilities!

Therefore, when Mellen signed the contract with Spike, the latter's shadow appeared on the contract position that was geometrically extended from the cube in his mind.

With the help of Spike's shadow, the endless spiritual energy in the void was absorbed and transferred into the cubic geometry.

In addition to maintaining the growth of Cubic Geometry itself, these spiritualities will also be converted into spiritual energy suitable for the growth of dogs, similar to that in the wolf-shaped pendant, and fed back to Spike.

Normally, when Mellen's strength is exactly equal to that of the dog who signed the contract, everything will form a perfect virtuous circle.

Mellen no longer needs to infuse the dog with extra spiritual energy from the wolf-shaped pendant every day.

Furthermore, the stronger Spike becomes, the faster this absorption becomes.

In fact, with Spike's current strength, the spiritual energy he can absorb is completely beyond the upper limit of cubic geometry digestion. Under this saturation watering, not only will the latter's growth be accelerated, but the excess part will also be absorbed and preserved by the wolf-shaped pendant.

To make an inappropriate analogy, when Mellen and Spike are equal in strength, Spike can absorb 100 points of spirituality every day, 50 points of which will provide cubic geometric growth, and 50 points will be converted into energy suitable for Spike's growth.

When Mellen's strength remains unchanged and Spike surpasses him, he can absorb 200 points of spirituality. Because of the increase in strength, it now needs 100 points of spiritual conversion energy every day to grow. When Cubic Geometry is spiritually abundant, it may be able to absorb more, 60 points, or even 70 points.

In this way, there will still be some left.

Of course, this influence is also two-way.

For example, if one day Mellen's strength reaches the second level, if he contracts a first-level dog, the spiritual energy he absorbs will be insufficient.

At this time, Cubic Geometry will slow down its own growth and supply more spirituality to the first-level dog, allowing it to grow quickly to a level of equal strength.

Strictly speaking, this is a bit like a high-level boss in a game helping a low-level newbie level up. Although the newbie will improve rapidly at the beginning, when the level gap is gradually eliminated, this benefit will naturally disappear slowly.

In any case, Melen was overjoyed to be able to eliminate the 0.2 spiritual energy debt that appeared every day when he opened his eyes and to get certain benefits.

The only thing that made him feel a little regretful was that changes in the external environment would also affect the absorption of spiritual energy.

For example, when in the practice room, because it is a spiritually rich environment, the wolf-shaped pendant can increase 0.6 spiritual energy every day.

After leaving the training room, the daily income was only 0.2, a full two-thirds less!

After briefly familiarizing himself with his own strength, Melen was very satisfied.

In front of him now, those Tysons and Bolts from his previous life are all weak.

This is extraordinary!

Speaking of which, the profession of [Wolf Tamer] is really quite comfortable. As long as you contract a powerful dog, it is equivalent to finding a high-level "trainer", and your experience will increase automatically.

[Wolf Tamer] itself can assist the dog's growth. If some external forces are added, it is not difficult to keep the dog's strength level ahead of itself.

Thinking of this, Melen looked at the little red lotus in the cage.

Before this, he had never thought of using spiritual energy to help the little guy grow. It was not that he was stingy, but the curse of [Enemy of the World] would also change according to its strength.

With Xiao Honglian's current weak strength, she can only spread some misfortune slightly. If she wants to reach the point of killing ordinary people, it will take a long time to accumulate.

However, once Xiao Honglian becomes stronger, the curse of [Enemy of the World] will also increase in strength, and at that time it may be beyond his ability to cope with.

After opening the cage, Xiao Honglian happily jumped to Mellen's side. As he reached out to touch her, the little guy lay down on the ground, revealing her soft belly, and her little paws kept flapping.

Feeling a gaze on him, Mellen looked over and saw Spike facing him sideways, exercising with a serious look on his face.

Mellen showed an amused look and said, "Spike, come to think of it, you never seem to have asked me to touch your belly!"

Spike paused, then slowly moved his body, leaving only his butt exposed to Mellen.

After playing for a while, Melen took Spike and Little Red Lotus to the arena.

He needs to experiment with the active ability of [Soul Interaction] to get a clear understanding of it.

This time, he specially chose a stronger opponent for Spike...

As slow and heavy footsteps sounded, a huge brown figure slowly walked into the arena.

This is an old Kodiak brown bear, its hair beginning to be mixed with some gray. When it stands up, it is at least four meters tall. Just by gazing calmly, it has a sense of being high above, looking down at its prey.

It doesn't have many scars on its body because it is at the top of the food chain and rarely encounters rivals.

It was like this before awakening, and even worse after awakening.

Spike's face was full of solemnity. The old Kodiak brown bear in front of him was much stronger than the chimpanzee a few days ago!

However, Spike's heart was also filled with fighting spirit. He could feel that after signing the contract with the boy, he became stronger than before!

Moreover, it was not a dog fighting. The connection with the boy's soul made it understand that the boy could inject more strength into it at any time to make it stronger than it is now!

The confrontation did not last long. Spike was the first to bare his fangs and exploded, transforming into a three-meter-tall bone-armored giant beast and rushing towards the old brown bear.

The old brown bear forced a scornful smile on his calm face and also went forward.

"Boom!~"

The two huge monsters collided with each other with a loud bang. The huge force formed a shock wave that shot out in all directions. At the same time, cracks appeared on the ground where the two monsters stepped.

Chapter 47 Job Change [Branded Knight]

"Boom!~"

The old brown bear's body shook slightly and then stabilized.

Spike was knocked back several steps before he could steady himself.

Just this one strike determined the winner.

However, Spike showed no intention of retreating or being afraid. Instead, due to his high spirits, he activated all his fighting potential.

During this period, because of constant battles with various first-level extraordinary life forms, Spike had already made up for his lack of combat experience and formed his own fighting style.

However, the old brown bear was even more formidable. Even though his strength had weakened to a certain extent due to his old age, it was still superior to Spike at this moment, not to mention the fighting skills that were ingrained in his bones.

For Spike, this is a rare opponent and an opportunity to challenge himself and surpass himself.

For the old brown bear, only by winning this battle can it have a chance to survive.

Both sides have reasons to win, and there is no room for maneuver.

"Click!~"

Under the slap of the huge bear paw, cracks appeared on the bone armor on Spike's body. This was the first time that his bone armor was broken when fighting with an opponent of the same level.

The knight's [Life Force] surged wildly, quickly repairing the bone armor, and [Indestructible] made the bone armor shine brightly.

At the same time, Spike's sharp claws also left several deep scars on the old brown bear.

The fierce battle lasted for more than ten minutes, and the old brown bear's physical disadvantage began to show, and he began to breathe heavily.

Of course, Spike was not much better off. He was always at a disadvantage, and his bone armor had large cracks on it, and some of it had even fallen off.

In fact, although Spike looks worse now, it is far from reaching its limit.

When the energy in the body is exhausted, it can enter a stronger secondary burst state at the cost of forcibly consuming flesh and blood.

So, if it really comes down to a life-and-death battle, Spike will definitely be the winner in the end.

But in that case, it would take too long to recover afterwards.

Mellen came here this time to experiment with the active ability of [Soul Interaction], but there was no need to go to that level.

As Mellen's thoughts came out, Spike immediately understood what he meant and temporarily withdrew from the battle.

The old brown bear took the opportunity to catch his breath and did not chase after him. Instead, he stared at Spike vigilantly.

It admitted that this was the toughest opponent it had ever encountered.

Melen focused his attention on the shadow of Spike in the spiritual world, and activated the ability of [Soul Interaction]!

Suddenly, his spiritual power turned into strands of lines and was poured into it.
