The First Store System

Chapter 1103: The White Lagoon!

Xi Lu stood in front of the pillar, ready to begin the summoning round.

Like many customers, he didn't recognize many of the beasts present on the screen. He then took a deep breath and pressed the switch. He set the summoning system as a random summon, leaving the cultivation of the beast to his luck.

The next moment, the square light began to rotate at an unprecedented speed. Five seconds passed in the blink of an eye, and a beast appeared on the screen.

Xi Lu didn't recognize the beast, so he became excited, anticipating what qualities the beast had. But Xi Lu was only left with disappointment when he read the details on the card.

The beast was of higher quality, while its cultivation was the late Divine Lord. Xi Lu was somewhat fine with quality if the beasts had skills, but unfortunately, the reality was different.

Not only was its quality lower than he wanted but also the skills it had were basic. Xi Lu finally understood why he didn't recognize the beast. It wasn't that they were rare, but the truth was that they were extremely weak.

Xi Lu then placed the card into the return compartment and pressed the switch again.

The next moment, "1" appeared on the top of the screen while the square light began to rotate.

Time flew by, and several minutes had passed.


After returning the card for the seventh time, Xi Lu again pressed the switch, starting the eighth round of summoning.

Even though the number of summons was lower, it had been more than half an hour since Xi Lu began the summoning, and there were already four customers behind him, waiting for their turn.

The reason for the delay was Xi Lu's indecision about whether to select the beast he got in the fourth round of summoning. It was a supreme quality beast with the cultivation of the peak Divine Lord.

Xi Lu read the details published on the card of the beast he got in his ninth round of summoning.

On the top half of the card was the beast's illustration, and it was a stunningly beautiful creature.

It had a sleek and graceful body that sparkled in the sunlight. Its skin was a spotless shade of white, almost rainbowy, and was covered in intricate, swirling patterns that appeared to glow softly in the darkness. Its eyes were a piercing blue and seemed to shimmer with mystical energy. On its back, it had a large pair of majestic wings with a translucent quality that allowed the light to shine through them, creating a stunning effect.

From its first appearance, no one would be able to believe that the creature was a violent beast.

White Lagoons were rare in the Sacred Dimension, as they were once one of the top races of the Sacred Dimension. Even though the White Lagoons were stunning, beautiful creatures, they were similarly extremely violent.

The White Lagoons were aquatic creatures, and at one time, there was no opponent for them in the vast oceans of the countless vast worlds in the dimension. But their violent tendency created several wars for them, and it resulted in their number slowly diminishing.

Now they had dropped so low in numbers that even a sighting would be considered a rare event.

Xi Lu couldn't help but become excited over imagining the scene of him ruling the ocean with the help of the White Lagoon.

Xi Lu soon returned to reality when he read the note at the bottom of the card.

[Note; The White Lagoon is extremely violent. Even if bound by a loyalty contract, once its anger surpassed the limit, it would attack its owner, ignoring the punishment clause of the contract.]

The system didn't interfere with the native personalities of the beasts, as those personalities made the beasts as they were. The White Lagoons became the overlords of the ocean due to their violent personalities.

If they were as serene as their appearance, the White Lagoon would have long gone extinct due to their characteristics [Healing Waters].

Xi Lu also understood this, so he didn't focus much on the note and just kept it in his mind, remembering not to let the situation turn bad again in the future.

Xi Lu made up his mind to buy the beast, so he turned around and left the room. Soon after Xi Lu left, the second in line reached the pillar.

"Store owner, I want this," Xi Lu requested of Aakesh, passing over the card to him.

Aakesh took a quick glance at the card, tapped twice on the storefront pattern on the back of the card, and then returned it.

Since no customer was approaching him and there were no new customers in sight outside the store, Aakesh decided to watch the battle between Xi Lu and the Water Lagoon.

After Xi Lu took the card, he discovered himself standing in an unfamiliar environment.
