Chapter 31: Medusa

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The snake ladies charged forward fearlessly. They would defend their territory, even if it cost their lives. Their combat strength was no joke either.

This caught the city’s governor off guard. He did not expect them to be so strong. Moreover. The summoners who came with him were only after the evolutionary fossils. Since there were none, there was no way they would risk their lives. With that being said, quite a number of summoners had retreated from the battlefield.

Luo Chen watched angrily from the underground. He had only come for the evolutionary fossils. Furthermore, it was a rough journey. This trip was a waste.

“Snowy, we’re leaving. It’s hard to breathe here!”

Luo Chen whined.

Snowy led him through the underground and they arrived in a spacious hall.

Luo Chen was breathing heavily. It was as if he would have died if he stayed underground any longer.

He slowly raised his head and looked around. 

Once again, he spotted a beautiful face. She also had a nice figure and a long tail.

Luo Chen held his breath.

The snake lady was struggling on the ground. She looked like she was in pain. It was a pitiful sight.

‘So, is this the real queen?’

Luo Chen suddenly felt scared. Based on what the city’s governor said, she should be level seventy.

At the same time, he was furious at Snowy. 

‘I asked her to bring me out, but she took me to this place instead.’

Just as Luo Chen was about to leave, the queen shrunk into a ball. She was surrounded by white light. She got smaller and smaller. As the white light dissipated, she had turned into a pet egg.

Luo Chen almost could not believe what he had witnessed.

He recalled the words of the other snake lady.

Evolutionary fossils can evolve summoned beasts to the next grade but there is a downside. The beast will be reborn as an egg. It needs to be fully raised again. This is not easy because the beast will revert to level zero. The previous level did not matter whatsoever

“She’s a saint-grade beast, so she should evolve into a divine pet. Medusa, right?”

Luo Chen began breathing heavily. This trip was not a waste after all. 

He quickly took the pet egg and left the place. 

…

In his room at the inn.

Luo Chen drank a bottle of red potion. It replenishes one’s blood. He had lost a lot of blood due to Shura’s blade and needed his energy to bond with the egg.

“Haha! What a great harvest!”

Luo Chen laughed sinisterly. 

It was time to form a bond.

He went through the process of hatching a pet egg again.

Shortly after, a little girl was standing in front of him. She looked very similar to the snake queen, just a miniature version. Her eyes were filled with coldness. The way she looked at Luo Chen made him shudder.

Luo Chen swallowed his saliva. He was frightened.

Medusa seemed to be in a bad mood. Originally, she was supposed to evolve into a divine beast after her nap. However, she ended up as a pathetic boy’s pet. This turn of events was completely unexpected. She was so angry that she almost vomited blood.

“How dare you! This is a master-servant relationship!”

Medusa bit her lips. Her eyes filled with killing intent. 

“I won’t acknowledge you as my master.”

Luo Chen’s fear suddenly disappeared. 

‘Wait, this queen is completely different from before. She’s currently level 0. What can she do to me? In fact, she’s the one under my mercy.’ 

“Don’t worry, I’ll treat you like my partner!”

Luo Chen began touching her. He could not help himself because Medusa was really cute.

Medusa felt disgusted. She really wanted to murder him. Her cold eyes stared at Luo Chen’s hand and petrified it. 

Luo Chen was shocked.

“Anyone that looks directly into my eyes will be petrified. It’s my unique skill.”

While Luo Chen was panicking, the petrification on his hand was undone. 

This was because they had a master-servant relationship. A pet was not allowed to kill its master.

Luo Chen quickly took out his summoning scripture and forced Medusa to enter it.

After that, on the fifth page, an image of Medusa appeared. Her face was filled with resentment.

Beast Type: Medusa (Divine pet)

Gender: Female

Attributes: Poison (Mutation)

Level: 0

Type: Human

Habitat: Land

Direction: Assassin

“Hahaha! Medusa, there’s nothing you can do but obey me!”

Luo Chen flipped through his summoning scripture.

‘First page, my personal information.

‘Second page, white tiger’s information on the front and Shura’s blade on the back.

‘Third page, vermilion bird’s information.

‘Fourth page, black tortoise’s information on the front and bone dragon’s on the back.

‘Fifth page, Medusa’s information.’

…

He took out his other summoning scripture.

‘First page, my personal information.

‘Second page, mermaid’s information.

‘Third page, flower goblin’s information.’

…

“White tiger as the vanguard, vermilion bird as the damage output, black tortoise as the shield, medusa as the assassin, mermaid as the support, and flower goblin as the guard. Now, I have pets from all six directions.”

…

Indeed, Luo Chen had gained a lot. There was also Shura’s blade and the bone dragon. He was very satisfied. 

Luo Chen prepared to return to the academy. To him, education was just a game..
