The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 12: Chapter 11: Shield Armor Turtle and Chain Vine_1

"Bursting Medusa, an excellent water attribute Fond Spirit."

"If you live near water long-term, contracting it would be a good choice..."

"Water Dart Frog, Powder Frog?"

"This is interesting, one can ascend evolve into a 'Water Cannon Frog', the other can ascend evolve into a 'Rocket Frog'."

"If both can be bred together, cross breed, there is a small chance of cultivating a Frog-type Fond Spirit with dual attributes of water and fire..."

Ye Hanjun was slightly surprised. The last few shops somewhat improved his initial impression of the Chick House.

Since there wasn't a single hint or warning, Ye Hanjun could basically determine that the Instructor had no defined duties as such. He began to seriously consider what kind of Fond Spirit he should contract.

According to the ideal outcome, he hoped for a strong attack pet, followed by one with riding characteristics.

As for whether it possesses the direction of natural ascending evolution, Ye Hanjun is quite open-minded.

—— If it has, that would be best.

—— If it doesn't, based on his understanding and the resources behind him, he has plenty of ways to act against nature.

"Young man, take a look. I specialize in breeding Turtle-type Fond Spirits - Little Crocodile Turtle, Mud Turtle, Illusion Poison Turtle, Stinky Turtle... they are all carefully cultivated Fond Spirit youngsters, outstanding in attributes, prominent in personality. I guarantee that you won't have a bad word to say after contracting!"

At gate 108, there was an extremely enthusiastic Breeder.

He proactively led Ye Hanjun to visit the Fond Spirits' habitat and used the most professional terms to introduce the strengths and weaknesses of the Turtle-type Fond Spirits.

"The Little Crocodile Turtle, this little guy has amazing biting power, once it bites, it won't let go without tearing off a piece of flesh."

"Illusion Poison Turtle, it has special secretion glands at the end of its tail, it will spray a poisonous mist when in danger."

"Although its poison does not seem deadly, if not purified in time, those hit will lose themselves in the world of hallucination, leaving them at the mercy of others."

"And the Cactus Turtle, I highly recommend you contract this Fond Spirit, it can roll with a speed equivalent to that of a wild rabbit, a wild wolf."

"In addition, it's covered in sharp spikes, unless one's rank is far higher, it's hard to find a true natural enemy, so it's invincible by nature."

Ye Hanjun nodded in agreement with the Breeder's introduction.

As he habitually glanced around the shop, his indifferent and unaffectionate mood suddenly stirred slightly.

It was not a spiritual sense alert.

But a kind of emotional turbulence called "surprise", the intensity of which was extremely high.

"I want to take this 'Shield Armor Turtle'."

Retracting his gaze, Ye Hanjun suddenly pointed to the corner and said indifferently.

"You like the Shield Armor Turtle?"

The Breeder was slightly surprised, immediately grinning and saying:

"The shell of this little one is the hardest of its kind, it seems like the young man is choosing the defense route."

"However, based on the principle of integrity and friendliness in business, I suggest that the young man should better change his target."

"Why?" Ye Hanjun asked with a faint smile.

"This fellow has a bad temper, to be precise... it's quite terrible!"

The Breeder sighed, and complained with a tone of regret and helplessness:

"In theory, the most common core personality of the Shield Armor Turtle should be 'Honest'."

"Fond Spirits that hold 'Honest' as the dominant personality may be easy to take advantage of, but they listen, and follow orders well. There is no doubt about their loyalty in daily companionship."

"This Shield Armor Turtle is different. I studied it carefully for several days and seriously suspect that its core personality was 'Irritable' or 'Frenzied'. Even I, who bathes and feeds it every day, it ignores. It always wants to give my arm a bite, taste human flesh..."

The Breeder rolled up his sleeve, a clear bite wound on his robust forearm could be seen.

Although it had been smeared with medicine and was no longer bleeding.

But those terrifying inwardly sunken bite marks would certainly make anyone look at them shudder.

"It's a troublesome creature..."

Ye Hanjun nodded gently, his gaze flicking back to the corner again.

There, a half meter-sized black turtle was squatting on a large reef, all by itself.

It held its head high and chested out, stretched its neck, and comfortably enjoyed the orange light from the heating lamp overhead. Its two amber-colored eyes were round and open, giving off an appearance of "I'm very comfortable".

●)o(●

This is the Shield Armor Turtle.

The shell of the Shield Armor Turtle is a kind of notable species in the crowd.

Neither protruding upwards, nor sinking downwards, the overall structure is rectangular like a large brick carried on the back.

It has no bright patterns, no brilliant colors, only a cold, steel-like gloss, and one only needs to look at it to feel its extreme hardness.

"Yiyayaya——"

The reef sun deck could accommodate four to five Shield Armor Turtles of the same size.

Two Stinky Turtles, of similar size, wanted to get closer to bask in the sun and promote their individual growth and development.

But the Shield Armor Turtle didn't allow it, resorting to bump them with its backsize, knocking one of them flying.

It stomped on another, restricting its activity area, then turned its head around and took a bite, scaring the Stinky Turtle that it retracted its neck, fleeing away stumblingly.

"You see, this is the situation."

"As a Savage-type Fond Spirit, Shield Armor Turtle's intelligence is limited."

"But it still behaves like this, which shows that its instinct is more selfish and brutal than imagined."

"Young man, if you really sign a contract with it, you're bringing trouble without getting any benefit. Even I, as a Breeder, don't plan to continue nurturing it. I sincerely hope that you'll change your option, there's no point in persisting on a failure of no value...

The Breeder's face was full of sincerity.

The corner of Ye Hanjun's mouth curved slightly upward.

"Talent Identification!"

"This one then."

With a casual smile, Ye Hanjun made up his mind.

The breeder shook his head and sighed as if he deeply regretted not having dispatched the Shield Armor Turtle from the shop in time. Had he done so earlier, he would have been spared the subsequent selection and potential problems.

"Don't worry. If it bites me, I only have myself to blame."

Ye Hanjun shrugged and added:

"I'm not going to contract it directly. I'll try to get along with it for a while first. Please prepare it 'to go' for me."

"You have your own thoughts. Please be mindful of your safety."

Seeing Ye Hanjun persist, the breeder could only nod reluctantly and a dark green glow spread from his chest.

Just like Jia Pengpeng, that was the "contract imprint", signifying that a contract had been signed with Fond Spirits, and everything was normal with the Fond Spirits alive in the world.

The appearance and color of the contract imprint are primarily determined by the form, properties, and abilities of the Contracted Spirit Fond Spirits, manifesting as an esoteric symbol full of metaphysical mysteries.

Just as the dark green light emerged, Ye Hanjun felt an overwhelming life force and subconsciously stepped back.

Once the summoning array flickered and vanished, he saw the plant-type Fond Spirits he was expecting.

"Ssssss——"

It was a 'Chain Vine', with a body length of only 30 cm, about the size of a ruler.

Among the lower level Fond Spirits, it is exceptionally practical. With just a thought, the vine at the top will grow wildly.

"Roar!"

The Shield Armor Turtle was startled and, instead of retracting its neck and legs like other turtles, it tried to adjust its body posture to confront the enemy head-on.

However, this was futile. The breeder was strong and already stood at the 2nd rank.

His contracted Chain Vine, obviously well-nurtured, was no longer a fledgling mud-cast fetus but had ascended to the rank of Rainbow Light Fetus·Small Achievement.

With the move "Iron Lock Body Wrap", the vine, resembling a chain painted with dark green paint, nearly instantly restrained the Shield Armor Turtle's movement, forcing it onto its back, unable to move like a trussed dumpling.

"It's bound. With its biting force, it can't break free within 24 hours."

The breeder touched the roots of the Chain Vine, which shyly retreated and gurgled some water from a nearby pond.

"Young man, reconsider when you get back."

"If there is no breakthrough within 24 hours, no assurance of a contract, I recommend you bring it back. I will exchange it for a Cactus Turtle. Little Cactus is much easier to get along with than the Shield Armor Turtle, and its abilities are pretty good. It is a very high-quality contract object."

"Okay, thank you."

Ye Hanjun smiled and naturally asked:

"I don't have suitable feed in my possession right now. Could you please send me some turtle feed to tide me over for a few days?"

"No problem!" the breeder was very enthusiastic, "They are all inexpensive common feed. Take as much as you like from the tank!"

With the expected permission, Ye Hanjun did not hesitate.

He picked up a net and began scooping vigorously into the large tank labeled "Turtle Feed."

About half a minute later, he saw the small white creature mixed with the pebbles fall into the net.

There was a strange flash in Ye Hanjun's eyes as he quickly secured the net, signaling that he had enough.

"Is that all? You are being too modest."

The breeder knew just how much the Shield Armor Turtle ate. When he received the net, he went on another scoop mission.

At the end, he put everything -small shrimps, small fish, water plants, etc., into a large plastic bottle.

He also found a small trolley and placed the immobilized Shield Armor Turtle on it.

"The small cart is yours. No need to return."

"Come, hand over your personal badge. I'll register you. This is the step for a free claim."

Ye Hanjun nodded and handed over an item.

The breeder took the badge but suddenly felt it wasn't right upon touch.

He lowered his head for a second look, then stared in disbelief as his facial expression slowly changed:

"Silver... Isn't this an Assistant Instructor Badge?"

"You are not a student, but an instructor??"

"But that shouldn't be... Your aura clearly stays at the 1st rank, like that of a novice who has just started out. You don't resemble an Assistant Instructor at all..."

Ye Hanjun responded politely, "Both the Assistant and the official Instructor are given one chance for free claiming, isn't that correct?"

"That's true." The breeder blinked, looking at Ye Hanjun as if he wanted to strip him down and see whether he was a human or a demon hiding under his skin.
