"A prison in the belly?"
Lu Yu's expression hardened, and he activated his Eye of Truth, looking down at the ground beneath his feet.
【The Demonic Flower of the Prison】
【Attribute: Plant/Space】
[Strength: Beginner Overlord]
[Racial Potential: High-Rank Overlord]
[Skills: Belly Prison (Super-Tier), Law of Hell, Acid Bomb, Vine Whip, Parasitic Seed, Hypnotic Powder, Berserk Powder, Photosynthesis, Intimidation, Plant Terrain, Void Blast...]
[Introduction: Evolved from the Gluttonous Giant Belly Flower, it has an insatiable appetite in its juvenile stage. It likes to eat constantly, and after digestion, it turns into corrosive acid. Even if its belly is full, it will continue to produce more, thus constantly squeezing its elastic belly to expand its space. It has the appetite to eat a mountain.]
Once it has accumulated enough, it can be promoted to a Demonic Flower of the Prison with the right ritual and materials. The larger the abdomen it fills before evolution, the larger the space it opens up after evolution. It likes to build an ecosystem in its abdominal space, imprison life, and strengthen its own laws of the prison. It mainly uses photosynthesis, but it also eats the bones and decaying matter of dead creatures.
Most of the time they are docile, but if angered, they can be swallowed whole and left to rot and decay in the endless acid or die of old age.
[Evolutionary Path: Void King Flower (...) Heavenly Demon Tree (...)]
As expected of a dominant monster of the Morning Star level, not to mention its series of luxurious skills, its abdominal space alone has a diameter of several thousand meters.
So how huge is it actually?
As if anticipating Lu Yu's doubts, the voice rang out once more:
"Its abdominal space is folded, so its actual size is not that big, but it is still about 100 meters long. If we're talking about size, then it has to be the mechanical pets and mechs from the Mechanical King Domain. I recently heard that they found the almost infinite energy oil and have started building Sky City... But I digress."
The Demonic Flower usually sleeps deep underground in the Hundred Beasts Tower, spending most of its time imprisoning these tamed beasts. Even if it gets out of control, it won't cause any serious consequences.
Lu Yu turned around and saw a middle-aged man wearing a black trench coat and special forces boots, with an "L"-shaped sword at his waist.
He had a cigarette dangling from his lips, his gray hair was combed back, and his sideburns were neatly trimmed. Coupled with his melancholy eyes, he gave off the vibe of a middle-aged, ascetic uncle.
He picked up the portable steel flask at his waist, took a sip, and said calmly:
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Zhou Cheng. You can call me the gatekeeper or the acting warden. Are you the selectors for this round?"
This girl's Abyss Demon Eye is pretty good, but the Abyss-type Spiritual Puzzle is tough to work with, tsk tsk, and what's this girl without a contracted pet? It seems each generation is worse than the last!
In response to these homeroom teacher-like words, Lu Yu simply said:
"I remember that drinking during work hours would result in a deduction from your salary, right?"
This wasn't something he made up; he actually saw the rules and regulations posted on the wall on the first floor and jotted them down while he was looking at them.
Zhou Cheng's expression stiffened, and he coughed lightly, saying:
"Cough cough, I've had a bit too much to drink and my eyesight's gotten worse. Look closely, you're really handsome and dashing, a true gem. No wonder you're the descendant of a hero who earned a gold medal. Since you're so outstanding, give me some face and let this matter drop. I'm counting on this month's salary to settle the tavern's accounts, otherwise the boss won't even let me in..."
He originally just wanted to act aloof and cool, but he didn't expect the kids to be so difficult to deal with.
"Pretending not to see it isn't impossible, unless..."
"Unless what?"
Lu Yu pondered for a moment and said, "I also enjoy drinking. Let me try this wine!"
"This..." Zhou Cheng was also stunned. This was the first time he had encountered someone who dared to blackmail him.
However, this really hit his weak spot. He had already been warned several times for drinking at work, and if he got another complaint, he would really have to work for nothing this month.
You don't want your boss to find out you're secretly drinking at work... What kind of NTR plot is this?!
Thinking of this, Zhou Cheng's tightly furrowed brows suddenly relaxed, his expression turned cold, and he said calmly, "Trying to blackmail me? Aren't you afraid you won't be able to choose a pet beast?"
As he spoke, a suffocating pressure emanated from him, clearly an attempt to intimidate others with his power.
Chi Yue Meng remained unfazed, while the Abyss Demon Eye behind her quietly rose, indicating that she was preparing for battle.
"I'm not afraid!" Lu Yu said with a smile, seemingly unaffected by the oppressive aura. "After all, you mean me no harm."
Zhou Cheng raised an eyebrow and asked curiously, "Why do you say that?"
Lu Yu said with a smile, "Because when you first saw me, your expression was somewhat gratified, and later you ignored a beautiful woman and kept looking at my face, then showed a nostalgic look."
If it's not a problem with my sexual orientation, then I must know someone who looks like me. I don't have any other relatives in Da Yuan City, so that only leaves my parents.
Zhou Cheng remained silent for a moment, looking at the composed Lu Yu, and couldn't help but sigh:
"As expected of Lu Sheng's son, you're just as smart as him. You guessed right, I'm his captain, the head of the 17th Special Squad. If I hadn't been so late, I might have been able to save your parents..."
At this point, Zhou Cheng's face showed a hint of regret.
Lu Sheng is Lu Yu's father.
Lu Yu remained silent and did not respond.
There are no "what ifs" about the past.
Zhou Cheng scratched his head awkwardly, thinking that this kid was too clever and cunning. He couldn't play the villain for dozens of episodes like in TV dramas, and then have a plot twist.
As expected, someone as handsome as him can't play a villain! "Tch, what a boring kid."
Now that he'd been recognized, Zhou Cheng stopped pretending and handed over the bottle with a pained expression. Before he could even tell Lu Yu to drink less, Lu Yu snatched it away.
Akatsuki Yume, who had been listening attentively, remarked, "Her observation skills are impressive."
Lu Yu shrugged and said, "Actually, I've only ever seen a photo of him and my dad together. What I just said was all made up!"
The sound wasn't loud, but it didn't escape Zhou Cheng's hearing, making him so angry he almost ground his back teeth to powder.
That bastard really looks exactly like me.
He really is my favorite son!
Lu Yu raised the wine bottle to pour the wine; he had no interest in indirectly kissing a middle-aged man.
The reason for asking for wine is not to cause trouble, but because the Eye of Truth has revealed the information about the wine.
【Hundred Flowers Divine Wine: A fine wine made primarily from the roots and stems of the Demonic Flower, blended with petals from over a hundred kinds of fresh flowers, fermented to enhance mental strength.】
The stronger your mental strength, the higher your chances of winning when facing the Nightmare Beast.
His goal is to become stronger!
Lu Yu took a sip, and the rich, sweet wine filled his mouth, its fragrance of a hundred flowers blooming instantly on his tongue.
Immediately, a cool sensation surged into the brain, making the soul stronger and further refining and solidifying one's spiritual power.
The increased power instantly swept away the gloomy mood that Lu Yu had been experiencing due to the nightmare.
Lu Yu handed the wine back, but Zhou Cheng didn't rush to take it. Instead, he asked:
"Wouldn't you like some more?"
"That's enough. The effects are still going on. Drinking any more would be counterproductive." Lu Yu didn't pretend to be reserved.
The wine brewed from the body of a Overlord-level pet beast had a very strong aftereffect for a Beast Tamer like him who hadn't even reached the Bronze rank.
Furthermore, interpersonal relationships require a sense of propriety. Others may not mind, but one should not take advantage of the situation.
After all, who would be so lucky as to happen to have wine that enhances spiritual power?
Zhou Cheng tucked the wine pot into his waistband, waved his hand, and as steam rose, a cloud-like, cotton candy-like white mirror appeared in front of him.
A yawning expression appeared on the mirror, as if the person had just woken up. A line of text also appeared on the mirror:
"Old Zhou, that tavern owner is really voluptuous. No wonder you always crave peaches when you're drunk. If you ask me, some monsters are pretty good too—mermaids, trolls, giantesses, limb-splitting demons. You could totally write a book about interracial customs..."
Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Cheng punched him into the ground, saying with a forced smile:
"How strange, this broken mirror has been sitting here for so long, it's started talking nonsense, haha!"
As he spoke, he added another kick, burying the cry of pain into the ground.
Lu Yu's lips twitched slightly; even without the Eye of Truth, he recognized its identity.
A rare water-type pet, the Mirror Fairy, has medium racial potential as a leader. While its combat strength is not strong, it possesses a highly functional racial skill—[Mirror Light Technique]!
It can spy on every place within a kilometer radius and display the images, making it a remarkable reconnaissance technology.
It can be said that having it is equivalent to having a Skynet system installed within a kilometer radius, so that no matter what happens, it will not be hidden from you.
If this ability were to generate revenue, all it would take is to spread the word, and a host of large companies and adventure groups would come knocking on your door with high prices seeking cooperation.
As expected of his father's captain, he is extremely powerful in both status and background to become the warden of the Overlord Beast Tamer.
Moreover, if the [Round Mirror Demon] can evolve into the legendary [Thousand-Mile Mirror Demon], it can explore thousands of miles and perceive all spirits.
He even read a rumor in a travelogue that someone had tried to create a mirror to observe the world, but he didn't know if they succeeded.
"Alright, let's start choosing our tamed beasts!"
With a dark expression, Zhou Cheng drew his sword, snapped it open, and the hilt fell off, turning into a black pistol. After some "friendly negotiation" with the round, luminous demon head on top, he finally got it sorted out.
Zhou Cheng picked up the mirror again and infused it with dark golden spiritual power. Several images appeared on the originally gray mirror surface and were pieced together in split-screen mode.
He pointed to a pack of black wolves that resembled wolfhounds, with black and red fur and sparks flying from their bodies, and introduced them:
"These are Netherfire Wolfhounds. We captured them after we wiped out a suicide squad of the Netherworld Cult. The larger ones had gone completely insane, so we disposed of them on the spot. We brought the smaller pups back to raise, and now we have more than a dozen."
Undead and fire-attribute beast tamers, with moderate racial potential to become leaders, possess the racial skill "Netherfire Hunt." When excited, they run and their bodies ignite with Netherfire, leaving scorched paths in their wake. Creatures that step on them will be burned by the Netherfire, and biting them will also infuse them with Netherfire.
Although the Netherfire isn't very hot, it's like a leech, constantly eroding its opponent and devouring their life force. Most importantly, canine tamers are loyal, so the chance of them turning against you is low, and they can be fed only bones, although the quality of the bones they consume will increase as they grow older.
"Although its potential is only that of a mid-level commander, the authorities have control over its two evolution paths. The first is the top-level commander, the Netherworld Flame Wolf, which is still undead and fire-attribute, with enhanced Netherfire power and the racial skill Fire Prison."
Another top-tier leader is the Skeleton Hound King, a pure undead species with the racial skill Skeleton Control. It can hatch skeleton hound minions from corpses, the number depending on its strength, generally around ten.
The two paths, corresponding to dogs and wolves respectively, represent different directions.
Seeing that Lu Yu was still pondering, Zhou Cheng assumed he was dissatisfied with the dog-type beast taming technique and coaxed him:
"If you can enter the Yellow Springs Ecological Secret Realm and find the nest of the Dragon Blood Worms, you can perform the Dragon Feast Ritual to consume a large number of Dragon Blood Worms, thereby stimulating your dragon bloodline and evolving into a powerful beast with the potential to become a high-level overlord—the Yellow Springs Dragon Wolf!"
