Chapter 7: Iron Eaters Are Never Slaves

The environment of the Iron Bamboo Breeding Base was different from the Ice Plains City Breeding Base, where there was only an alpine bamboo forest area.

 In this world, Shi Yu always saw many things that did not conform to common sense.

 For example, three or four environments that were absolutely impossible to be adjacent to each other on Earth, it was entirely possible for them to blend together here.

 However, if one were to examine it carefully, one could actually find that it was all the special power of the transcendent beings influencing the outside world.

 The environment of this Iron Bamboo Breeding Base was relatively normal, at least more normal than the Ice Plains City Breeding Base.

 The soil is fertile, the forest is lush, the iron bamboo grows well, and the water is abundant with clear springs flowing, which is exactly the environment that the iron eating beasts love to live in.

 At this time, Shi Yu has already entered the feeding area with Lin Xiuzhu breeder.

 Although it is said that there is only one cub left, but also have to see ah, can not wait another year, waiting for a new batch of iron beast cubs grow up.

 Life is not easy, Shi Yu sighed ...

 In the Iron Bamboo Breeding Base, there were actually not only Iron Eater Beast cubs, but also many adult Iron Eater Beasts, only that the ones that Shiyu had reserved were cubs.

 For a novice Imperial Beast Master like him, the ability to contract a favored beast cub was the limit.

 Although adult Iron Eater Beasts like those could also be used as pact objects, Shi Yu obviously couldn't grasp it.

 "Iron Eater Beasts ... are really nerdy."

 Along the way, Shi Yu saw many iron eating beasts that had landed in the neighborhood, and none of them were nerding out and sleeping.

 There were those sleeping in grass nests, those hugging tree trunks, and those sleeping on tree branches, all unexpectedly quiet.

 "It's not the season for them to be active yet, the bigger iron eating beasts are basically quieter at this time of the year, but the smaller ones are more lively."

 Lin Xiuzhu said as she walked ahead, and sure enough, under her lead, it didn't take long for Shi Yu to see a significantly smaller iron eating beast.

 Less than a meter in length and not very large, it was roughly a year old, at the stage where it had just said goodbye to its mother and was living independently.

 The iron eating beast cubs that the imperial beast masters booked were basically of this age, after all, the cubs were too small for the imperial beast masters to take care of.

 "Is it this one?"

 When Shi Yu saw this little iron eating beast, he was instantly enraptured, and only felt that he had not waited for three months in vain.

 This Iron Eater Beast cub, with its soft black and white fur and short tail wagging, was very cute.

 At this moment, it also noticed Shi Yu and Lin Xiuzhu, and on its round cheeks, the eyes within the large black circles gleamed as it looked at them, soulful and serious.

 "Yes," Lin Xiuzhu nodded.

 "It looks normal to me." Shi Yu said.

 Just as he finished speaking, the iron eating beast cub immediately shifted its gaze away from the two of them, looking as if it didn't want to be disturbed, and directly launched itself into a sprint on the spot, hitting the tree trunk with a "bang" before being bounced back and rolling on the ground several times before stopping.

 Shi Yu added, "Well, not too smart looking."

 Lin Xiuzhu also helplessly covered his forehead and said, "This Iron Eater cub had some problems at birth, the birth did not go smoothly, and its physique is slightly weaker than other Iron Eater cubs."

"The Iron Eater Beasts that were at the same time as it had all successfully awakened their Hardening Ability before they were a year old, and this one is the only one that hasn't awakened until now."

 Generally, for pet beasts of the same race, the earlier the racial skill was awakened, the better the qualification and talent was represented, while those that were slow to awaken naturally represented poor talent, which was why this iron eater had been picked over.

 "In short, because of the individual differences, it caused its character to start becoming different from other Iron Eater Beasts as well."

 The character and habits of the iron eating beasts were actually the same as that of the pandas, with half of the time spent eating removed every day, and most of the remaining half of the time spent in sleep.

 In the vast majority of cases, the iron eating beast is very docile in nature, and when it sees people, it often covers its face with its forepaw, or lowers its head without revealing its true face, and it rarely takes the initiative to attack other creatures.

 As such, it is highly recommended for novice Imperial Beastmasters to cultivate.

 However, this Iron Eater Beast, due to its individual experience being a bit different, first because it developed slower than its contemporaries, it would not know what it should know, and then it was singled out, and suddenly its character changed drastically.

 It was anxious.

 So began to change habits, abnormal self-discipline, even independent efforts to train up, hoping to quickly awaken hardening ability to become stronger.

 It is a rare iron eating beast that has a dream and is not lazy, but unfortunately, it is almost talented.

 After evolution, the iron eater beast relative to other pet beasts, IQ is not low.

 The crashing into the tree just now was the way it used to exercise its physical strength.

 "In other words, this Iron Eater Beast cub, with exceptionally poor talent, is very hardworking, very diligent, and has nothing but upward mobility?"

 Shiyu summarized, then revealed a smile.

 "... Although you're exaggerating a bit, it's probably like this?" Lin Xiuzhu said.

 "But don't worry, it's just poorly developed innately, if it can be put into the Imperial Beast Space to be cultivated, it can be adjusted later on."

 Moreover, an iron eating beast that was so self-disciplined was actually considered quite rare.

 This kind of character was generally a plus point.

 Of course ... the drawbacks brought by this character are also there ... Lin Xiuzhu whispered in his heart, that is, the irregularity of work and rest leads to being too able to eat.

 After all, to train, nutrition had to keep up.

 "Then I'll take it."

Although normal iron eating beasts were great, but actually, Shi Yu didn't want that kind of docile pet beast that did nothing but eat and sleep, it was too lazy.

 It was lazy enough to have him all to himself.

 It didn't matter if his talent was good or bad, after all, he had a skill icon.

 As we all know, hard work + extras, that's the way to go.

 "Have you decided?" Lin Xiuzhu looked at Shiyu in disbelief, usually Imperial Beast Masters were very mindful of the talent of their pet beasts, right?

 Otherwise, this Iron Eater Beast cub, wouldn't have been picked over.

 "I'm more appreciative of this kind of endeavor character of the favored beast ... feeling that it and I will get along very well."

 Well, the matching moves for autonomous training were all prepared for it.

 "So, are there any favors?" Shi Yu was still oblivious to the offers.

 Lin Xiuzhu was speechless, but she, who had information on Shi Yu, understood Shi Yu's situation.

 She said, "This iron eating beast sleeps less, so it needs more food to supplement."

 "Price concessions... no, we treat every iron eating beast the same here, but if you choose it, this side can attach an extra month of iron bamboo to you."

 The Iron Bamboo Breeding Base was not only an Iron Eater breeding base, it also produced one of the Iron Eater's favorite food, Iron Bamboo.

 Iron Bamboo was as hard as steel, belonging to the mutated bamboo species, and was the core food used to cultivate Iron Eaters to master the hardening ability, and the price wasn't cheap, not to mention that Iron Eaters had a large appetite.

 A month's worth of Iron Bamboo food was indeed considered a good bonus, after all, it was a necessity.

 "Thanks." Shi Yu thanked.

 Lin Xiuzhu nodded, and since Shi Yu was already sure, she walked forward and came next to the small Iron Eating Beast that was a bit dazed by the reaction force.

 "Eleven, finally an imperial beast master has chosen you, happy." She squatted down and looked at the little iron eating beast with a smile.

 The iron eating beasts here all had their own numerical numbers, and the cubs were the same, this relatively special iron eating beast cub, was number eleven, so the breeders here basically referred to it by eleven instead.

 The little iron eating beast sat up in silence, then looked at the distant Shi Yu, its eyes blinking.

 Although his heart was happy to have an imperial beast master recognize him, it ... was too late!

 It sat on the ground, arms raised high, and let out a wail.

An iron eating beast that will never be a slave!

 It can grow stronger on its own!

 After saying that, it got up and spread its legs, intending to run away, intending to escape from here in front of the staff of the breeding base.

 Iron Eater, fearless!

 Imperial Beast Master, don't want it.

 Then immediately after, before it could even begin to run, it was lifted up as soon as Lin Xiuzhu grabbed it by the neck.

 Shi Yu with telepathy: "..."

 Not bad, very spirited.

 On the other hand, Lin Xiuzhu sighed and pressed the problematic iron eater to the ground.

 Although it was just a girl, it was unexpectedly strong.

 Definitely an imperial beast master is right, after contracting a pet beast, the power of the pet beast will also feed back to the imperial beast master, allowing the spiritual power and physical quality of the imperial beast master to improve.

 Although he couldn't reach the point of PKing transcendent creatures with his bare hands, there was no problem at all in killing Earth's fighting masters and athletes.

 "Listen up, after becoming a Royal Beast Master's favored beast, your growth rate will be several times that of the current one, and the hardened abilities that you weren't able to awaken before will also be able to awaken quickly."

 "Not only that, there's also a more restful resting environment and a richer variety of food, far happier than staying here."

 Lin Xiuzhu spoke to this iron eating beast cub rather seriously, suspected telepathic talent, or it could be that she had been playing the iron eating beast for too long, and the iron eating beast could understand her words.

 After she finished speaking, the iron eating beast cub froze.

 It looked at Shi Yu with a blank expression.

 After Shi Yu was silent, he said, "Food and lodging are included."

 Only when there is still money, added Shi Yu in his mind.

 The Iron Eater Beast Cub once again let out a wail, its expression even more bewildered and tangled.

 Drool flowed indisputably down the sides of its mouth.

 In the end, it was the lure of the benefits the Imperial Beastmaster could bring that outweighed the will of the mind, and this Iron Eater Cub reluctantly nodded.

 Can't bear it ...

 Iron-eating beasts are never slaves and fearless, unless, for example, food and shelter are included.
