Extraordinary pedigree

01:30 PM.

Boom~

The old clock tower in Daocheng slowly chimes the time, and its melodious bells echo as usual in this neighborhood where ancient and modern intertwined.

This iconic building stands in the city center. It has gone through the baptism of time and is still majestic. The mottled clock face on it looks particularly solemn in the sun.

Surrounded by busy markets and crowded streets, the glass windows of modern shops contrast sharply with the ancient stone bricks of the old clock tower, highlighting a superposition of time and space.

In the shadow of this clock tower, there is a store called "Adventurer Supply Store". The store decoration is simple and unpretentious, and colorful flags of various capsule beasts are hung at the door, vividly depicting the images of some popular capsule beasts.

The store is filled with a variety of adventure gear and essentials, from premium capsules to a variety of beast-controlling accessories.

At this moment, Xia Xiu was standing outside the store, holding a detailed document in his hand - "Some Terms to Know About Opening a Capsule Beast Series Account".

He carefully read through each clause and ticked the corresponding box from time to time with the water-based pen provided at the front desk.

After completing all the necessary checks, Xia Xiu signed his name at the end of the document, and then handed the neatly folded document to the waiting front desk employee in the store.

After the front desk employee read the information, he enthusiastically said to Xia Xiu:

"This is your first time to apply for a Capsule Financial Series credit card. Do you want to use our local financial credit card? This city's credit card will provide you with points rewards for every purchase. These points can be used to redeem airline miles and hotels. Accommodation or directly deducted from bill.

Based on your animal breeding habits, we provide special discounts, such as extra rewards at your favorite animal stores, or special discounts on online shopping platforms.

If you apply for our credit card now, you will enjoy an additional 5% cash rebate on any purchase within the first month. If your first prepayment exceeds 100,000, you will receive a silver-qualified island city's characteristic royal beast - [Wali Fish]; and, As long as your annual consumption reaches a certain amount, we will waive the annual fee for you. In addition, we offer flexible credit limits and convenient installment options, allowing you to manage your beast spending more freely. "

"The application process is very simple. I can help you fill out the form on the spot. Most customers can get preliminary approval on the same day. Of course, if you currently have insufficient funds, you may also consider signing up for the local beast-controlling career orientation training program first. After the training program During the three years, the federal government and the Mayflower Foundation will provide funds for your targeted breeding of beasts for you to complete the training of your beasts.”

Xia Xiu glanced at the front desk man who looked like a lotus-tongued man, and for a moment couldn't help but sigh in his heart at the abstraction of the world.

Yes, the application process for [Capsule Beast] is the same as opening a credit card account, and there are too many abstract items in it.

The rigid requirement in the account opening terms he just signed is a prepayment. To open an account, you need to pay an upfront fee of 5,000, and then you can choose one of the five bronze-qualified beast masters provided by the Mayflower Foundation.

That is to say, if you make the first charge of 5,000, you have to start to control the beast.

What makes Xia Xiu even more abstract are the subsequent upgrade terms, training projects, local cash rebates, competitive subsidies, and event bonus pools.

The first is the upgrade terms. As the account opening specialist in front of me said, the first charge is 5,000, the cumulative charge is 100,000, and the minimum is guaranteed to be a silver qualification for beast control.

He called this a krypton gold start, and this kind of krypton gold still has skills. All the abnormal states in the federation have introduced a large number of beasts from the triangle trade, and the federal regional governments have paid to buy out the patent rights of some of the beasts. , making these royal beasts a local specialty.

For example, Daoshi bought out the ten-year copyright of a fish called "Wali Fish". This fish has many hard spines on its body. It swallows ten liters of water in one breath to swell its body, and then shoots poisonous needles all over its body. , its destructive power has been tested to be very different from that of the Federation 9mm pistol.

In addition to the 100,000 krypton gold start, there is also a cow-horse start.

For this start, you only need to sign the relevant targeted breeding plan, and then the federal government and Mayflower will provide you with a dedicated beast and be responsible for all the training expenses for the beast within three years. What you need to do is to cultivate this beast well, and then take it to the government or a department designated by Mayflower to work after three years. The work cycle is twenty to fifty years. During this period, if you violate the terms, You need to pay more than five times the liquidated damages and all the previous government-provided beast-controlling training funds.

Whether it is krypton gold or cattle and horses, they have contributed a large amount of assets and value to the federal government and [Financial Street].

Local governments rely on various beast-control policies to attract investment and introduce talents. In this situation of bilateral profits, beast-control is simply a money-attracting monster for them.

The beast control system established by the Edici government through triangular trade is simply a win.

The above is just the beginning. There will be a series of policies to link the beast control system and the [financial genealogy] of the Edici Federation to promote each other.

Once you get the beast-controlling start, you need to cultivate it after that. Cultivating always requires money.

At this time, various local banks, companies, and institutions in the federation will come out to provide various services.

For example, the bank’s monthly card service costs RMB 3,000 per month and provides high-quality beast-controlling breeding materials and high-quality feed; companies and institutions will provide various package services, such as 648 Classic Selected Feed and Rare Materials, XXX Career Planning, and Beast-controlling Supporting peripherals...

The Federation provides one-stop beast control services.

You don’t want your beast to lag too far behind. After all, raising a beast is investing in yourself.

Therefore, you cannot suffer the hardships of controlling the beast. You cannot give me any less money that should be spent.

If I need to recharge 648, I have to recharge it to death, and I have to renew my monthly card loan.

And the Federation will not let you spend money in vain, at least it will not let you spend money without seeing the future.

The beasts you cultivate represent your entry into the transcendent side, which naturally has a self-evident emotional value. These beasts can also perform various cattle and horse jobs for their masters that previously belonged to humans.

The old friends of civil engineering have ushered in the second spring. With the frequent local wars in Terra, many war projects have been put on the agenda. The extraordinary supply of beast control has greatly liberated human productivity. Many civil engineering projects have been put on the agenda. My brother has already chosen the cow-horse starting clause. Now many powerful beast-controlling people are fighting day and night on the front line of civil engineering, while the civil engineering brother is turning over the cow-horse and singing-from the past dual cow-horse of spirit and body, he has evolved into The spirit of the Federation.

It is simply gratifying.

Of course, these alone are not enough. The federation's greedy financial capital needs to further stimulate the expansion of the beast control system.

Therefore, there are various local cash rebate policies and competitive subsidies related to beast control in various places.

Especially for competition subsidies, the federation encourages beastmasters to compete more and get involved with each other, and all age groups should participate.

Previously, the first deposit of 5,000 yuan to open an account was free. For children under the age of 18, you can choose to open an account with an interest-free loan provided by the government.

Yes, minors can also open an account.

The training funds for minors can be completed through local cash rebate policies and competitive subsidies. You only need to keep participating in various competitions and rankings during school, and the government will provide money.

First in the school, give me money.

First in the county, give me money.

First in the city, give me money.

As long as you are ranked, the place will give you cash back.

Children don't need anything, they just need to take rankings. What the government needs is to control the beast, not you.

The government also has monthly and weekly competitive targets. If the targets are met, subsidies will be given. If the targets are exceeded, the subsidies will be even greater.

After that, there are various competitions, such as the beast control competition held by Mayflower.

These are divided into three groups.

Junior group: under 12 years old.

Intermediate Category: 13 to 16 years old.

Senior Category: 17 years and over.

The local government also has various competitions, and the prize pool of the competition is very generous, which is enough to make anyone crazy.

In such a prosperous age, how could the beast control system not blossom everywhere?

After the great economic collapse, the Federation was once again on the rocket - through the Triangular Trade, through the Mayflower Foundation and the manipulation of the giants of the federal government.

This is the prosperous age created by the [Atlas] of the Federation.

"Sir, have you made your decision?" The enthusiastic sales voice at the front desk sounded again.

Faced with the enthusiastic recommendations and various offers from the front desk staff, Xia Xiu politely waved his hand in rejection.

He smiled and said, "No, I just pay an advance fee of five thousand."

Xia Xiu's current goal is to fully experience the process of controlling beasts as an ordinary federal citizen. This can also be regarded as his practical report on human society as a reserve decision-maker of the Kingdom of Heaven.

He needs to personally understand and evaluate the Edici Federation's beast control system, and this field trip will provide him with valuable insights on how to better integrate and improve this system.

In this way, he was able to more truly understand the interaction between ordinary citizens of the Federation and the beast-taming system, as well as the practical application and impact of the beast-taming system in daily life.

Moreover, his status as a beast master allows him to access some of the things he wants to access. After all, this newly emerging system and profession is very convenient for packaging some gray projects, such as the human body trade.

After the transaction was completed, Xia Xiu entered the special breeding house under the guidance of the staff, preparing to select the first generation of five imperial beasts provided by the Mayflower Foundation.

The interior layout of the cultivation house is simple, with the federal logo and the Mayflower Foundation's product LOGO hanging on the walls, reflecting a professional and rigorous scientific and technological atmosphere everywhere.

They walked through the neatly arranged cultivation facilities and finally came to a special area where five transparent capsules the size of footballs were placed.

These capsules are exquisitely designed, each connected to fine pipelines and instruments, displaying detailed parameters of the internal environment to ensure the healthy growth of the beast.

The staff pointed to the neatly arranged transparent capsules in front and introduced Xia Xiu in detail:

"This is the first generation of the Five Taming Beasts provided by the Mayflower Foundation. The Foundation has made a detailed announcement of these Taming Beasts, and the Federation is expected to launch the second generation of Taming Beasts in May this year, and there will be more new categories and improved features.”

Xia Xiu rubbed his chin and looked at each young beast in the capsule with great interest. His expression was full of evaluation and thinking.

At the same time, the hope on the shoulder also imitated his movements, gently touching his chin with his little hand, looking thoughtful.

This pair of one big and one small, even though one of them is hardly noticed by others, shows an extremely harmonious and tacit understanding.

Hope's purple eyes sparkled with curiosity and interest in these new lives, while Xia Xiu turned from one capsule to another.

Inside the first capsule was a young cat, small in size, with small but extremely flexible limbs. Its whole body is covered with fine light gray hairs, which sway gently in the slight air flow created by the capsule, as if it can sense the surrounding breeze at any time. Its eyes are large and bright, with an expression of curiosity and alertness, and its small ears twist gently from time to time to capture the surrounding sounds.

In another capsule, a small rat crouched. Its hair is short and tight, showing a bright silver sheen, and special organs hidden in its body make it occasionally emit faint static sounds. Its eyes flashed rapidly, and its little hands and feet kept rubbing the inner wall of the capsule, as if it was accumulating energy.

Inside the larger capsule was a muddy pig, lying lazily. Even at a young age, its body appears to be exceptionally strong, and its skin is rough and covered with a thin layer of mud. It seems to like rolling in the small pool at the bottom of the capsule. Its small body keeps rolling in the simulated mud, lively and happy.

In the next capsule, a puppy lay quietly. Its hair is thick and dark gray, giving it a powerful sense of concealment even when young. Its eyes glow slightly in the low-light environment of the capsule, and its small body seems ready to blend into the surrounding shadows.

In the last capsule, a chick stood quietly. Its feathers already show a light blue frost texture, and its wings are small but structurally intact, revealing the potential to soar in cold high altitudes in the future.

"This is the relevant information about these five beasts. You can read it over and make a decision after careful consideration."

The staff handed a form to Xia Xiu.

He took the form and started flipping through it.

"Similar to condition-triggered thaumaturgy, it is similar to ancient pre-made spells and requires lengthy pre-magic preparations."

Xia Xiu murmured in his heart, and at the same time began to think about the future of the beast control system.

"This model is indeed easy to form a competitive dependence similar to the turn-based system. The two children fought back and forth before. This is also the reason. Therefore, the further optimization of the beast control system is to reduce path dependence and evolve towards real-time thaumaturgy. Comparable to a normal thaumaturge..."
