Ice Plains City Pet Beast Breeding Base.
Night.
A figure emerged from the dormitory building, heading straight for the medical room.
In the pet beast breeding base, fights among the wild pet beasts are a common occurrence, and it's not unusual for the handlers to get injured accidentally.
Therefore, most formal pet beast breeding bases are equipped with a medical room.
The medical room here treats both humans and pet beasts, and the treatment methods are quite simple... in the era of pet beasts, of course, the healing abilities of pet beasts are used.
After quickly arriving at the medical room, Shi Yu saw a doctor on duty, sitting in a chair and processing documents.
"What's wrong?" She looked up upon seeing someone come in.
"Doctor, I think I sprained my wrist."
"I'm worried it might affect my work tomorrow..."
Shi Yu stepped forward, extending his hand, which was slightly swollen and still trembling.
"Let me take a look." The female doctor, expressionless, glanced at Shi Yu's wrist.
From his clothes, she could tell that Shi Yu was an intern handler, a student who had just graduated from school.
Often, these types of employees are the ones who get into the most trouble; she was used to it.
"I'll give you a simple treatment." She said, then muttered softly.
The next second, Shi Yu felt the temperature around him drop sharply, and a gust of wind appeared out of nowhere.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~~~
A gentle breeze blew, causing the curtains in the room to flutter.
At the same time, with a thought from the female doctor, a large white-green array, shimmering with countless light points, like a star map, appeared in the air, facing Shi Yu.
Then, the array produced ripples like the surface of water, and a white dandelion ball floated out.
The white dandelion ball was larger than Shi Yu's palm, rootless, and after being summoned by the female doctor, it landed directly on the back of Shi Yu's hand.
"It will be over soon." The female doctor said.
As she spoke, the white dandelion ball emitted a faint white light, enveloping Shi Yu's hand.
Instantly, under the light, Shi Yu felt himself being healed.
The sprain was real, but it wasn't that serious. He had injured it on the way, and there was still some pain before, but now it was completely gone.
Shi Yu marveled at the magic of it.
No wonder the intern said the medical room at the breeding base was very effective; it indeed was.
The existence of extraordinary beings is not only detrimental to humans; in fields like medicine, they can be of great help to humans.
After the treatment, the white dandelion ball floated up from Shi Yu's hand.
At the same time,
The third page of the stone compendium in Shi Yu's mind flipped open.
The image of a plant-type pet beast, the White Dandelion, with a medium race level, appeared.
【Skill】: Rapid Healing
【Skill Level】: Intermediate
【Description】: A wood-type healing ability that can accelerate the healing speed of ordinary injuries.
【Status】: No teaching target yet
This time, the successfully recorded and replicated ability was an extremely rare healing ability, with high value and versatility!
The White Dandelion not only used the skill but also made contact with Shi Yu, just as he had anticipated.
The doctors at the breeding base's medical room are all beast masters, and they have contracted rare healing-type pet beasts. Other employees have also come here for treatment due to accidental injuries, so Shi Yu quickly thought of this method to try to replicate the healing skill.
However, Shi Yu felt he was a bit too hasty. The internship still had three months left, and there might be other opportunities in the future, so there was no need to be so impulsive.
"Should be fine now, right?" The female doctor recalled her pet beast and looked at Shi Yu.
"Also, you were overreacting. The White Dandelion said it was just a minor injury."
At the time, Shi Yu's expressive face made her think it was a serious injury...
However, seeking medical attention promptly when a problem arises is commendable.
She had seen many beast masters and pet beasts who ignored minor injuries, which eventually led to more serious problems.
Shi Yu: ...
Sorry, he had already done a lot of mental preparation for this minor injury.
"I'll be more careful next time, thank you." Shi Yu nodded in gratitude, feeling a bit embarrassed, as he had delayed her work. He decided to buy some snacks that plant-type pet beasts like to thank her tomorrow...
Using healing abilities to treat injuries is the method of the medical room at the pet beast breeding base.
Even for minor injuries, the doctors here prefer to use pet beasts, for a simple reason: multiple treatments also help increase the pet beast's skill proficiency.
Learning a skill doesn't mean one can use it proficiently; it often requires many practices to truly master it.
Therefore, the skill compendium's method of increasing skill proficiency through repeated teaching is quite powerful, effectively accelerating the training efficiency of pet beasts.
...
Through the medical room at the breeding base, Shi Yu successfully obtained a rare healing skill, and he was in high spirits.
After returning to the dormitory from the medical room, Shi Yu washed up and lay down.
Before going to sleep, he began to look forward to the day he would become a beast master.
Becoming a beast master opens up many paths.
Especially if one can pass the professional beast master examination, fulfilling only a small part of the obligations, almost nothing else needs to be done, and the Beast Master Association will pay a monthly salary, which is almost a leap in social status.
"Beast masters who have just contracted a pet beast are called apprentice beast masters."
"When the abilities of the apprentice beast master and the initial pet beast reach a certain standard, they can participate in the unified examination of the Beast Master Association."
"Passing the examination makes one a formal professional beast master."
Shi Yu mused to himself, wondering how long it would take for him to go from apprentice to formal with the skill compendium...
With the skill compendium, he should have a significant advantage in raising pet beasts.
At around 18 years old, it is also the best age to become a beast master.
Thinking about it, Shi Yu fell asleep.
...
After crossing over, it took Shi Yu a day to try to adapt to the new world.
At the same time, he determined his next goal.
The next morning, Shi Yu got up early and started his new day of work.
He also took the time to buy a gift to thank the aunt who helped him treat his injury yesterday.
Adjusting his mindset and suppressing his impulse to become a beast master quickly, Shi Yu began to slowly integrate into this world.
In the blink of an eye, three months later, the internship period was about to end, and Shi Yu could finally go to claim his pet beast.
Taking advantage of his work, he successfully replicated and recorded two more skills during this period.
The first was the intermediate skill "Super Vision," from a high-race-level extraordinary wind-type bird pet beast, the Blue-Backed Eagle, which patrols the sky of the breeding base.
Super Vision, as the name suggests, is a skill used to enhance vision.
Eagles already have good eyesight, and creatures that awaken the Super Vision skill have even more perfect vision. They can see in the dark, see far, and see through ordinary illusions. The movements of opponents within their line of sight appear several times slower to them.
Although it doesn't directly form combat power, its upper limit is very high, and its uses are widespread. Pet beasts used for reconnaissance and patrols in various cities generally have the Super Vision skill.
Unfortunately, this skill still falls short of Shi Yu's ideal skill for extreme enhancement of the five senses... If he could find it, who would settle for a substitute?
However, this skill is still good. If the Iron-Eater could learn it, its combat awareness would definitely improve significantly.
The second was the advanced skill "Absolute Sleep."
From a high-race-level extraordinary pet beast, the Sleep Demon.
The Sleep Demon is a type of undead pet beast, with only two racial skills: the mental skill "Hypnotic Wave" and "Absolute Sleep."
Clearly, this Sleep Demon is also a pet beast of a handler.
The handler often uses the Sleep Demon's "Hypnotic Wave" ability to help pet beast cubs sleep peacefully, which is a very good auxiliary skill.
As for "Absolute Sleep," it is a skill used on oneself. After using it, one can enter a deep sleep state, rapidly restoring physical energy, which is a recovery skill.
Few pet beasts can master the Absolute Sleep skill, but the Iron-Eater, being a heavy sleeper, should be able to, right?
The reason Shi Yu replicated this skill was to think about whether he could be self-sufficient in the future...
After becoming a beast master, to make the pet beast grow quickly, it definitely needs to be trained.
But training is very energy-consuming for the pet beast, and it gets tired and needs rest.
In such cases, the beast master can recall the pet beast to the beast space to accelerate its physical energy recovery, but this causes significant energy consumption for the beast master.
The richer ones can buy some nutritional supplements.
But Shi Yu was different. He thought that if his pet beast could learn "Absolute Sleep," it could rapidly restore its physical energy on its own... saving money and effort, and the Iron-Eater loves to sleep, so where it sleeps doesn't matter.
Even if the pet beast gets injured during training, there's no need to buy medicine or go to the hospital because he can teach the pet beast the healing skill "Rapid Healing," making the pet beast heal itself.
This would save a lot of money...
He is indeed a genius.
Of course, Shi Yu's replication of these skills was not to be lazy... purely out of necessity.
He believed the Iron-Eater, whom he hadn't met yet, would understand him; they were too poor.
Shi Yu put in a lot of effort to replicate these two skills, just like he did with Rapid Healing.
But why only two... because the compendium seems to have reached its limit after recording five skills.
This made Shi Yu very frustrated.
Although he guessed there would be a limit, five initial skills seemed too few.
Fortunately, he didn't rush to replicate low-level skills, or he would have suffered a great loss.
Currently, the maximum number of skills the skill compendium can record is five...
To add new pages, Shi Yu speculated that he would need to improve his beast master level, similar to developing certain special beast master talents.
The method for a beast master to improve their abilities is actually quite simple.
It involves continuously strengthening, modifying, and expanding their beast space through meditation.
The more solid the beast space, the higher the level of pet beasts it can contract, and the greater the control over the pet beasts.
The better the environment in the beast space, the faster the pet beasts grow.
The larger the area of the beast space, the more pet beasts the beast master can contract.
Based on their positioning, beast masters can selectively develop their beast space, and not all three aspects need to be perfected.
As the beast space upgrades, the accompanying special beast master talents will also be enhanced.
