Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When he heard Edward’s words, Mike was also dumbfounded.
He also did not expect that the other party would propose such a superior condition.
It was just that becoming a soldier was not Mike’s goal.
“Second Lieutenant Edward, I can only say that I will consider it.”
Hearing Mike’s words, Edward’s heart was a little disappointed.
However, seeing that Mike did not directly refuse, he knew that there was still room for consideration at this time.
So, after thinking for a while, Edward handed the token in his pocket to Mike.
The token had Edward’s information and contact information.
Seeing that Mike had put away the token, Edward asked again.
“Then, little friend Mike, if you change your mind, you must remember to tell me as soon as possible. I’m always here.”
“If other schools offer the same conditions, I hope you can give priority to Star Academy.”
“Mmhm, I’ll think about it carefully when I get home.”
At that moment, Mike only wanted to hurry home and visit his family. At the same time, he wanted to tell them the good news of him becoming a Beastmaster.
Soon, Mike and Edward parted ways.
Immediately disbanding the herd of beasts, Mike rode on the Cyan Wind Horse and sped in the direction of Loess Town.
He checked the Beast Space and found that the Green-Eyed White Dragon had fallen asleep after swallowing the Fire Essence.
Strangely, the huge Green-Eyed White Dragon had turned into a black-red Dragon Egg.
The Dragon Egg was surrounded by mysterious inscriptions. At the same time, it was slowly burning, as if it was carrying out some kind of ritual.
Through the Soul Imprint, Mike felt that the Green-Eyed White Dragon’s vitality was not much of a problem, so he continued on his journey.
At the same time, he had arrived at Star City’s Loess Street.
Loess Street was a commercial street in Loess Town.
Star City was divided into the Inner City and the Outer City.
Loess Street was in Star City’s Outer City, and most of the people living here were civilians and vagrants.
At this moment, Mike was walking in the direction he was familiar with.
“Sir, why don’t you come and buy some eggs?”
“The eggs that I sell are all very fresh.”
A cute 10-year-old girl dressed in plain clothes was holding a basket of fresh eggs. She smiled and said to the uncle who was walking in front of her.
“Sure, Linda. How much are your eggs?”
“One federal dollar for two eggs.” Linda smiled sweetly. “Sir, after eating my eggs, you’ll become stronger.”
“Haha, young lady, you really know how to talk. I want to buy ten eggs.”
“Okay.”
Linda immediately revealed a miserly smile. This was one of the few big deals she had.
After the uncle took out five alliance dollars, he thought for a moment and gave her two more federal dollars.
“Sir, you’re overpaying.”
“Linda, take it. Didn’t you say you wanted to raise money to buy a Pet Beast Egg last time?” The uncle said kindly.
As a Beastmaster, he knew that even the cheapest pet egg cost 10,000 federal dollars.
“Thank you, uncle. My Brother said we should work hard by ourselves, so I’ll save the money myself.”
After handing the two federal dollars to the middle-aged man, Linda said goodbye to him.
“Sigh, I don’t know which family she’s from. She’s so young and doesn’t have any education, yet she needs to go out to earn a living? I really don’t know what’s going on with her parents.”
“I’m familiar with this family. The little girl’s father died early and lived with her mother and brother ever since she was young.”
“I heard that she and her mother did this to provide for their son to become a Beastmaster. However, it isn’t easy to become a Beastmaster.
“Yeah, she’s so young and sensible that it makes one’s heart ache.”
...
These neighbors chatted casually. They came and left quickly. After all, to these working people, there was a lot of work left for them to do every day.
“Get out of my way!”
Suddenly, an angry roar was heard.
Then, a fierce-looking man knocked Linda away, causing her to fall to the ground.
The federal dollars in her pocket fell to the ground. At the same time, all the eggs in the basket fell to the ground, causing some of them to break.
“Oh, my eggs.”
Linda frowned. She did not pay attention to her hurt arm. Instead, she was worried about the eggs on the ground.
“It’s okay, it’s just a few broken eggs.”
Linda mumbled and picked up coins on the ground while looking for intact eggs.
After cleaning up, she put on a smile and was ready to find a customer to sell her eggs.
At this time, an angry shout came from the crowd.
“Hey, you blind guy, do you want to leave just like that?”
Everyone turned around and saw that the person who spoke was a boy wearing a high school uniform.
Linda immediately recognized this boy.
This boy was one of her brother’s few friends, Cook.
Cook, who had been looking for Fierce Beast Eggs with Mike, immediately went home when he got a Rare Level Fierce Beast Egg.
Cook, who was just about to go home, saw his friend’s sister being bullied.
How could he not be angry?
He immediately shouted at the guy!
“Oh? Kid, do you have a problem?” The brawny man narrowed his eyes.
“You hit someone, and the eggs were broken by you. You have to pay for it!”
“Kid, do you want to die? !” The brawny man shouted in a deep voice.
“Cook, he is a member of the Bloodfang Mercenary Group. These people are all desperadoes, so don’t do anything stupid.”
“Yeah, don’t stand out. People are dying every day these days.”
Facing the kindness of his neighbors, Cook said in a deep voice, “Don’t worry, I’m already a Beastmaster and have the strength to protect everyone.”
“Just you wait! !”
Hearing this, the burly man’s eyes suddenly lit up. Just as he was about to walk towards Cook, he thought of something. After glaring at Cook, he turned around and ran away.
“Damn you, how dare you glare at me.” Cook clenched his fist, trying to stop him.
At this time, Linda stopped cook.
“Cook, have you seen my brother?”
“Mike? I’m not too sure about this. Once I got the Fierce Beast Egg, I didn’t continue staying there.”
“Oh, I see.”
Linda’s eyes instantly dimmed. Then, she thought of something happy and quickly brightened up.
At this time, seeing that the atmosphere was somewhat silent, Cook was about to say something to Linda to alleviate the heavy atmosphere.
However, at this time, a burst of noise came from not far away.
A large swarm of insects like dark clouds flew over from the blue sky, and they were flying at an unbelievable speed.
“Oh no, these are Poisonous Wasps! A dense swarm of Poisonous Wasps! !”
“F*ck, this is the Outer City. Why are there so many Poisonous Wasps?”
“I know. I heard that the Bloodfang Mercenary Group went to the nearby forest to disrupt a beehive in order to get the queen of Poisonous Wasps yesterday!”
“These B*stards are greedy for money. Don’t they know this is a residential area?”
....
