Chapter 351

However, Silem was not a child who would get stuck in a dead end. He could clearly recognize the gap in talent between himself and others, and naturally, he could also understand where his real advantages lay compared to others.

He was the young master of the beast shop, and Silem never had the kind of thoughts that some bards would sing about, such as wanting to distance himself from his privileged family to do something remarkable on his own to prove himself.

He was a child who had a tough life, so he naturally understood that the end result mattered more than the method.

Since he was not as strong as others on the path of a practitioner, then he would explore another path!

Using beasts wasn't something to be ashamed of, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

Just like how he could get ahead in some outdoor practical classes with the help of Little Eight, Silem never thought that relying on these external aids was 'shameful'.

On the contrary, he used to envy those with families that could offer such advantages, and now that it was finally his turn, Silem couldn't help but brag about his brother whenever he was out.

Of course, when he returned home, he wouldn't say anything, so his brother wouldn't get too full of himself.

With a ghost spider, who could doubt his strength?

Seeing Silem's happy and silly expression, Lorant took the opportunity to go over all the things to keep in mind when hatching the monster egg.

Including but not limited to keeping the monster egg close to him, no matter what he was doing, he should try to keep the monster egg with him for as long as possible.

It would be best to talk to it more so that he could get used to its scent and his voice before the ghost spider hatched.

This was based on Lorant's experience, although neither he nor Little Qing and Little Black could be sure if this really worked.

Silem, however, took all these things seriously and jotted them down in his little notebook.

After taking care of the ghost spider's monster egg, Lorant finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The appearance of the ghost spider was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise for Lorant. Gaining an extra level ten or higher combat power, whether it could stay by his side or not, as long as it was still a part of the beast shop, it was good news for him.

After reassuring Little Qing and Little Black for a while, getting it to finally accept the fact that another ghost spider would soon appear within the range of the beast shop, Lorant finally waited for the hatching of the Blood-eyed Black Crow.

This was the first time Lorant had seen such a completely black monster egg. When he took it out of the wooden barrel, all the straw had vanished, and the thick liquid poured in had been fully absorbed by the monster egg.

Although the monster eggs had almost no change in size, from the hardness and color, Lorant could confirm that they had indeed fully developed.

Lorant and a few floating octopuses carefully removed these monster eggs from the barrel and laid them out on the table.

At this time, he could finally use a silver knife to slice open the last layer of the husk, revealing the jet-black monster egg inside.

Now, these monster eggs looked even more like grapes.

After placing these 'grape eggs' one by one on a specially made hatching pad padded with thick feathers of bird beasts, Lorant began the familiar waiting process again.

Lorant was already very familiar with waiting for monster eggs to hatch.

He leisurely made himself a cup of fragrant tea, and Little Qing and Little Black, being particularly sycophantic, brought him various snacks and delicacies. Sitting in the comfortable lounge of the beast shop, it didn't feel like he was waiting for the monster eggs to hatch, but rather like he was attending some luncheon.

If one day he could get himself a TV or something, that would be absolutely wonderful, Lorant thought while enjoying the food.

By noon that day, cracks began to appear in the jet-black monster eggs.

No matter how many times he saw it, every time he saw these little ones come into this world, Lorant always felt excited.

The thrill of a new life being born always made his heart race.

When a tender yellow beak carefully pecked open the black eggshell, Lorant felt a sense of strangeness because the scene before him was so normal it felt abnormal.

Normally, what hatches from eggs are usually birds with sharp beaks and claws.

But since Lorant came to this world, he has seen all sorts of strange creatures hatching from eggshells, even some floating octopuses, whose body shapes make it impossible for them to break out of the monster eggs without assistance.

So, seeing a normal bird emerge from the eggshell, Lorant felt a sense of wonder.

This is what *should* come out of an eggshell!

The "Blood-eyed Black Crow" is a creature that looks very similar to the crows in Lorant's memory.

It has a tender yellow beak, sharp claws, and pure black feathers.

However, when this little black creature opened its eyes, Lorant immediately understood the origin of its name.

This crow-like creature, seemingly ordinary among the variety of beasts in the pet shop, has five blood-red eyes.

In addition to the pair of blood-red eyes in the normal position for a bird's eyes, there is another pair of slightly smaller red eyes almost at the back of its head. Additionally, there is a vertical red pupil right in the middle of its forehead.

With a total of five eyes, this unique body structure grants the Blood-eyed Black Crow an astonishing 360° field of vision.

This is also the primary source of the Blood-eyed Black Crow's abilities.

Despite having more eyes, this little creature doesn’t look strange; in fact, it hints at a handsome appearance as it grows.

However, as a young bird, it currently looks like a chubby little black ball, soft and utterly adorable.

Standing on Lorant's palm, less than a quarter the size of his hand, it tilted its head and blinked its eyes, curiously observing the unfamiliar creature before it.

Lorant felt an inexplicable fondness for the little creature.

He gently rubbed its head with his finger and placed it back next to its monster egg, allowing it to enjoy its first meal.

As the little creature began pecking at its eggshell, Lorant turned his attention to the ability chart slowly materializing before him.

"Blood-eyed Black Crow"...................................................c0007.

As the chart opened, an elegant giant black crow flew toward him from the distance, its speed causing Lorant to close his eyes, fearing it might hit his face.

It moved swiftly, like a black lightning bolt, appearing before Lorant in an instant.

Then it fluttered its wings, hovering gracefully above the chart.

Unlike the Wingless Flywheel, which can hover steadily in the air with its small wings, the Blood-eyed Black Crow lacks the ability to remain completely still; it constantly flutters its wings up and down while hovering.

The little creature stayed in place, tilting its head curiously to look at him, then raised its head and let out a hoarse cry before flying away.

The ability chart for the Blood-eyed Black Crow materialized.

This little creature seems easy to care for, with minimal food requirements; even level one beast meat is sufficient if provided in ample quantity.

Moreover, it doesn’t need a balanced diet; according to the chart, even rough feeding won’t hinder its robust growth.

However, Lorant naturally prefers to take better care of these little creatures whenever possible.

The cost difference isn’t significant, and while the process is more complex, it ensures these little creatures develop excellent fur with balanced nutrition. Why not?

It looks like the current pet food factory might need to add one or two more production lines.

After finishing this section, Lorant casually scrolled down to find the skill descriptions of this pet.

"Skills":

1. "360-Degree Vision": The unique physiological structure of the Blood-eyed Black Crow grants it an ultra-wide field of vision. It can see in all directions, covering a full 360°, and has an exceptional range, allowing it to spot objects 30 to 50 kilometers away under optimal weather and unobstructed conditions.

2. "Vision Interaction": Through a telepathic link with other creatures, the Blood-eyed Black Crow can replace the other's vision with its own. The effective range varies from 50 to 200 kilometers, depending on the individual Blood-eyed Black Crow.

3. "Blood-eye Illusion": The Blood-eyed Black Crow can cast illusions on prey through its eyes, causing any creature that directly gazes at it to experience hallucinations, fear, and visual distortions.

As a C-level pet, the abilities of the Blood-eyed Black Crow are quite impressive to Lorant.

This pet can completely overshadow the mages' Mage's Eye.

In unique environments such as the Lopulo Mountains and the Black Forest, the utility of this pet is undeniable.

Lorant is confident that once this little creature is revealed to the public, it will instantly capture the full attention of every adventurer out there!
