Chapter 10: The Underground Research Institute
“Song Tiantian, it’s okay. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have known that the Snow Lion cared about me so much. The Snow Lion is truly a very, very powerful Pet Beast. I am truly grateful to you. If you hadn’t saved the Snow Lion back then, I wouldn’t have been able to form a Contract with it.
It’s truly wonderful. It shared half of its Power with me and has now fallen into a deep sleep. I will definitely not let it down.”
Jiang Su felt as if he had undergone a complete transformation.
His entire aura changed in an instant, becoming vibrant and full of life. If the previous Jiang Su didn’t know where his future lay, the current Jiang Su already had his own conviction.
He wanted to go to the battlefield.
Perhaps ordinary people didn’t know the terror of Fierce Beasts, and the authorities had also suppressed this news.
But not all Fierce Beasts were gentle.
Just as there are good and bad people, the same applies to beasts.
In reality, the situation was already very dire. Space Rifts were continuously expanding, and more and more Fierce Beasts were emerging from them. One day, the Space Rifts would become an Abyss, and then an endless stream of Fierce Beasts would pour out.
This one hundred million was extremely worthwhile. He had gained the Power to protect himself and the Power to protect his family.
“How long will the Snow Lion sleep for? I’ve never contracted a Pet Beast before, so I don’t know the situation.”
Song Tiantian asked with some curiosity.
“I feel it might sleep for about ten days. I plan to buy more Energy Stones to put in, which might help it wake up sooner.”
“That long? Then you’ll need to prepare a lot of meat. It likes its meat half-cooked. That way, it can eat its fill as soon as it wakes up.”
“Don’t worry, I definitely will.”
Jiang Su originally wanted to say that he would help Song Tiantian contract a Pet Beast, but he had spent all his money and would have to borrow from his parents.
He planned to help Song Tiantian contract a Pet Beast after he earned enough money later.
“Jiang Su, you’re awake!”
Bai Jing ran up to Jiang Su and Song Tiantian, holding a tablet.
Song Tiantian looked at the bloodshot eyes of Bai Jing and felt admiration for her. This woman truly had a deep passion for her work.
“Sister Jing, you’re amazing! You’re working overtime in the middle of the night!”
Song Tiantian admired her from the bottom of her heart.
“None of us slept tonight; we were all working overtime with Dr. Bai. Dr. Bai said Jiang Su was awake, so he specifically asked me to come find Jiang Su. Dr. Bai has already reported Jiang Su’s information, and people from the Capital City will come to pick Jiang Su up tomorrow morning for a month of training in the Capital City.
Dr. Bai has waived the remaining payment for the Snow Lion, but Jiang Su needs to sign a contract to serve the Qingshan Pet Beast Center for three years.”
Song Tiantian leaned over to look at the contract. The terms of the contract were not strict.
Jiang Su didn’t hesitate. After glancing at the contract, he signed it without any hesitation.
“I will always remember the help Dr. Bai has given me, and I also want to repay Dr. Bai.”
Jiang Su also had other considerations. The Jiang Family was merely wealthy; they held no status in the Beast Taming world. Dr. Bai was a leading figure. If he didn’t align himself, he would be like a fence-sitter, easily trampled by anyone.
Moreover, it was only three years, and in three years, he could earn ninety million.
However, time was a bit tight. He had to go home and see his parents first. So, after signing, he didn’t linger and left immediately.
Song Tiantian could only return to her dormitory to shower and get some sleep now, as there were still three hours before she had to go to work.
The people from the Capital City arrived at noon. It was evident that the authorities attached great importance to Jiang Su.
The people from the Capital City also took out a crystal glass ball and tested Jiang Su. They discovered that Jiang Su’s Pet Beast Space was actually one hundred square meters, and they were astonished.
“Dr. Bai, you are truly amazing. In less than three months here in Qingshan, you have discovered such a Genius.”
Dr. Bai was aloof and didn’t speak, not even glancing at the other person. His gaze was fixed on Jiang Su.
“Go and come back soon!”
Dr. Bai instructed Jiang Su.
“Don’t worry, Dr. Bai, I will definitely return.”
Jiang Su boarded the Airplane.
The Pet Beast Center was much larger than Song Tiantian had imagined. That huge runway was the takeoff and landing strip for airplanes.
A private airplane belonging to Dr. Bai was parked there.
Such a large area being left empty like this; it would be great for running and exercising if it were used as a track.
As Song Tiantian watched the airplane fly into the sky, she suddenly remembered that she had no one to tutor her with her Homework anymore.
Although Bai Jing was kind, after staying up all night and being so busy with work, it would be too bothersome to ask her questions.
Most importantly, she would no longer have anyone to Slack off with or chat idly with.
Just as Song Tiantian was about to continue looking at documents for the day, Dr. Bai said to Song Tiantian, “Come here.”
Song Tiantian obediently followed. She then discovered that this Pet Beast Center actually had three underground levels; this was the secret area.
And quite a few Fierce Beasts were also confined here.
All the Fierce Beasts here had red eyes, entering a Rampage state, emitting a brutal aura. Just making eye contact sent shivers down one’s spine.
【Kill, kill, kill!】
【The lowly humans deserve to die!】
【Caw, caw, caw, kill these people, kill them all!】
Their Inner Voices were also filled with all sorts of killing intent.
And there were many with low intelligence, lacking wisdom, so they couldn’t hear Inner Voices.
“These are Fierce Beasts that Dr. Bai had people capture from the Secret Realms outside the city. Those that could be contracted have basically all been contracted. The remaining ones are extremely ferocious Fierce Beasts that cannot be contracted. Don’t be afraid; these Fierce Beasts won’t harm you,” Bai Jing explained to Song Tiantian.
Bai Jing actually felt a bit uneasy. Not just anyone could enter the Underground Laboratory.
She had been by Dr. Bai’s side for many years before being allowed to enter this place.
Yet Song Tiantian had only been here for a few days!
It was only her second day of work, and Dr. Bai had already authorized her to activate Song Tiantian’s work card.
She knew her Jealousy was wrong, but she couldn’t control the discomfort in her heart.
However, when those Fierce Beasts let out furious roars, she still spoke to comfort Song Tiantian.
She just didn’t tell Song Tiantian that some Fierce Beasts here were good at pretending to be pitiful, and many newcomers had been deceived before.
She felt she had done her best, after all, she had also told Song Tiantian that the remaining Fierce Beasts here were not good stock.
If Song Tiantian still wanted to prove herself, like on her first day of the Interview, wanting to tame a Fierce Beast, it would be completely impossible. After all, if she sought death, she couldn’t blame her.
That Pet Beast was delivered and raised by Dr. Bai himself. No matter how ferocious it was, it was different from the Fierce Beasts here.
“Thank you, Sister Jing!”
At this moment, Song Tiantian understood where those videos of Pet Beast abuse online came from.
It seemed that Dr. Bai’s management wasn’t particularly strict.
