Destiny Rekindled

Chapter 8 Contract the first spirit beast!
"Thanks to you this time."

Qin Chuan moved his body which had completely recovered after taking the second fruit, and looked at the water leaf dog beside him with a happy smile on his face.

He was almost about to delete his account and start over.

Fortunately, the Water Leaf Dog found fruits and herbs that could heal the wounds.

Don't know how it does that though.

Qin Chuan sat cross-legged casually on the ground and held the Water Leaf Dog in his arms. Looking at the Water Leaf Dog's closeness to him, the smile on his face became even more intense.

Originally, because of the departure of the Water Leaf Dog, he was still struggling with what kind of spirit beast he should contract.

And now, this question seems to no longer need to be considered.

"I don't know why you are so close to me when we just met." Qin Chuan said softly, "This may be considered a kind of fate."

"Wang!"

The water leaf dog yelled, poked its head out of Qin Chuan's arms, and licked his cheek excitedly. The feeling was somewhat special, as comfortable as wiping his cheek with a wet towel.

"Are you willing to make a contract with me?"

"Wang!"

Shuiye Dog nodded heavily, and Qin Chuan also laughed.

The contract method is not complicated.

As long as you open the contract sub-panel in your own panel and aim the empty contract slot at the Water Leaf Dog in front of you, the confirmation button of [Try Contract] will pop up.

Qin Chuan pressed the confirm button without hesitation, and with a flash of light, the image of the Water Leaf Dog appeared on the first contract slot.

At the same time, lines of text appeared below the contract slot.

[Spiritual Beast Race: Water Leaf Dog]

[Spiritual Beast Attribute: Water]

[Spiritual Beast Level: Juvenile Level 4] (56/100)

[Spiritual Beast Characteristics: Plant Identification]

[Spiritual Beast Race Value: 320]

[Spiritual beast skills: Water master (passive), Undercurrent binding (active), Rapid breaking (active)]

[Introduction to the Spiritual Beast: The Water Leaf Dog is a water-based spiritual beast with sharp senses, a curious nature, a love of exploration, and a friendly personality.]

The new introduction no longer had a column for the status of the spirit beast, but instead added an introduction to its characteristics, racial values, and skills. At the same time, the spirit beast level had an experience bar added. Qin Chuan had already learned about these from the popular science explanations of the special affairs group and was not surprised.

His eyes quickly fell on the characteristics of the Water Leaf Dog.

Plant identification...

Is this the reason why the Water Leaf Dog can help me find healing herbs?
There is no doubt that although this feature has no practical ability, it is of great use to him at this moment.

Qin Chuan's gaze continued to move down and fell on the skills of the Water Leaf Dog.

Water Leaf Dog has three skills in total. There is a corresponding pattern above each skill and the skill name below.

After thinking for a while, Qin Chuan stretched out his hand and touched the first skill.

The next second, more introductions popped up in front of his eyes.

[Water Master: Passive skill, grants the spirit beast the ability to breathe underwater and condense and control water. ]

After finding the correct way to open the skill introduction, Qin Chuan's eyes lit up, and he immediately clicked on the next two skills.

[Undercurrent Binding: Active skill, hides powerful force in the water, produces binding or other control effects.] [Ripple Breaking: Active skill, releases a powerful water flow to cause damage to the opponent.]

"So, the skill that the Water Leaf Dog used to trip the Shadow Leopard is the Undercurrent Binding? The attack method demonstrated before was the Rapids Breaking?" Qin Chuan touched his chin and understood.

The passive skill of Water Lord is equivalent to giving Water Leaf Dog the basis for performing water-based skills, and its two active skills are one control and one attack. Although the number of skills is not large, it is still comprehensive and can cope with many complex combat situations.

Qin Chuan's gaze moved slightly and fell on the right side of the Riptide skill icon.

Behind the rapids, there seems to be a trace of an icon.

He tentatively slid the skill bar to the left, and actually saw a new skill.

However, this skill is currently in a gray state, and there is a lock on it.

Written below the lock were the words [Unlocked when the spirit beast reaches the growth stage].

Does this mean that spirit beasts can have new skills after upgrading?
Qin Chuan shifted his gaze away from the introduction of the Water Leaf Dog. With the experience just now in mind, he subconsciously looked to the right side of the filled contract slot.

Although only a little edge was revealed, there seemed to be a new contract slot behind the current contract slot.

After sliding in the same way, he saw a gray contract slot that was also locked.

[Unlocked when the player reaches the official level]

"Official level, if nothing unexpected happens, is the next player level after the trainee level." Qin Chuan's face showed a bit of helplessness, "But until now, no one has found a way to upgrade the player level."

"We can only explore slowly or wait for the special affairs team to disclose the information." He muttered softly, his eyes falling back on the water leaf dog in his arms.

After completing the contract, he could clearly feel that his relationship with the Water Leaf Dog had become closer. Not only could they understand each other, but they could also communicate across distance regardless of distance.

"Shall I give you a name?"

"Woof!" (Good!)

The water leaf dog licked Qin Chuan's cheek again, its big eyes full of anticipation, as if having its own name was a very important thing for it.

"What do you think of the name 'Splash'?" Qin Chuan thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "If it doesn't work, I'll think of something else."

"Woof! Woof!" (That's it! I like it!)

"That's good." Qin Chuan breathed a sigh of relief. He was not very good at naming.

He glanced at the time below the main panel. The healing process just now took him an hour and a half, so he didn't have much time left to enter the dream world this time.

The last time I entered, too much time was wasted because of the coma.

This time, we can't waste any more time.

"Shuihua, we need to find a safer place to survive for a while." Qin Chuan stood up and looked at Shuihua in his arms. "Do you know where there is water nearby?"

Shuihua's big eyes rolled around.

"Woof~" (I heard the sound of running water when I was looking for herbs just now.)
"The sound of running water?" Qin Chuan's eyes lit up. "You show us the way, and we'll go take a look."

Under the guidance of Shuihua, the man and the beast quickly moved along the route Shuihua came from. A few minutes later, they came to a low and humid valley.

Shuihua jumped out of Qin Chuan's arms, sniffed the ground carefully, and then quickly rushed in a certain direction excitedly, running around an area full of herbs.

"Woof~" (This is it)

Qin Chuan walked quickly forward and nodded with satisfaction when he saw the familiar herbs.

Not far from the herbs, he also saw the fruit that could heal injuries.

These two things are extremely precious to him now.
