Chapter 1167: The Changing Red Puppet
Currently, the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf had only reached 14-star combat strength.
Previously, it could still assist Liu Yan, but now that Liu Yan’s strength had grown to an impressive 24-star combat strength, the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf could hardly provide much assistance.
At this moment, Liu Yan also noticed this. Besides being busy enhancing his strength and aiding the members of the Origin Territory’s progress, he couldn’t neglect his battle pets.
Just like that Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf, as long as it was nurtured and grown, it would undoubtedly have become a capable helper for Liu Yan!
The Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf was Liu Yan’s battle pet, already bound by a contract, enabling telepathic communication.
At that moment, the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf instantly sensed Liu Yan’s thoughts.
Although it could not speak, it rubbed against Liu Yan’s hand, seemingly expressing dissatisfaction. It blamed Liu Yan for neglecting it during that time, not letting it out to fight more, and not nurturing it to increase its strength.
Liu Yan chuckled helplessly. He had been preoccupied with territory battles and affairs, leaving little room for his battle pets to participate.
However, now that Liu Yan ventured alone into the fog realm for training, he had the opportunity to train his pets.
“Alright, I’ll let you train well during this time. As long as there’s no significant danger, I’ll keep you outside for now,” Liu Yan said with a smile.
Upon hearing Liu Yan’s words, the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf became visibly pleased, nudging against Liu Yan even more vigorously.
Seemingly oblivious to its transformation from a small Wind Wolf, the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf’s strength was now formidable.
An ordinary member of the Origin Territory would likely suffer severe injuries from the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf’s nudging. Only Liu Yan’s exceptional physical endurance could withstand it.
Liu Yan gave the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf some fierce beast’s meat to eat. The Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf wanted Liu Yan to roast the meat for it, but Liu Yan ignored it.
After all, even though this was the periphery of the fog realm, it was filled with danger. Liu Yan naturally didn’t want to start a fire in the dark and attract danger.
Seeing that Liu Yan wasn’t willing, the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf had no choice. Fortunately, it was already very happy to be released, so it happily went to eat the vicious beast’s meat.
On the other side were the other two familiars released by Liu Yan.
Despite the Purple Wind Falcon’s combat strength being only 11 stars, its extremely small size and unbelievably fast speed made it extremely agile. Even when encountering powerful creatures with 18 or 19-star combat strength, it could easily escape.
In the fog realm where perception was greatly affected, the Purple Wind Falcon undoubtedly helped Liu Yan a lot.
Especially in the fog realm where vision was greatly affected, but during the Purple Wind Falcon’s reconnaissance process, it not only used vision but also animal perception, directly sensing the threatening creatures around.
This aspect seemed unaffected by the fog, undoubtedly helping Liu Yan a lot.
Liu Yan could only rely on his senses, perceiving the situation within a radius of tens of meters. He could at most rely on the SS-grade Extraordinary Five Senses to perceive the situation in the distance slightly through hearing.
However, with the Purple Wind Falcon, he could grasp the situation within a range of several kilometers. It could anticipate various circumstances in advance and preemptively avoid potential dangers.
Liu Yan fed some rations to the Purple Wind Falcon. Instructing it to take flight for reconnaissance.
However, navigating the fog realm at night posed heightened risks. Hence, Liu Yan refrained from allowing the falcon to conduct extensive scouting. Instead, it was tasked with short- range reconnaissance. Focusing solely on surveying the small island.
Ascending into the sky, the Purple Wind Falcon appeared unaffected by the dense white mist.
As Liu Yan turned around, he noticed the Treasure Pangolin also joining the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf to eat.
However, the Treasure Pangolin wasn’t eating the fierce beast’s meat. Instead, it was consuming grains and such. After all, the Treasure Pangolin wasn’t a carnivorous familiar.
Similarly, the Treasure Pangolin wasn’t a combat-type familiar but could engage in Treasure Hunting.
In this fog realm full of unknowns, the Treasure Pangolin undoubtedly helped Liu Yan with Treasure Hunting.
After all, once Liu Yan found high-level treasures, he could directly enhance his abilities through his SSS-grade divine talent, Divine Extraction.
The benefits Liu Yan gained from obtaining high-level treasures were much higher than those of other Awakened individuals.
The Treasure Pangolin was also particularly helpful in this regard.
Liu Yan didn’t rush them. He let the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf and the Treasure Pangolin eat and play for a while. He would let them work later. After all, he hadn’t let them out for a long time, and they were indeed eager.
Liu Yan currently had only four familiars in total. In addition to the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf, the Purple Wind Falcon, and the Treasure Pangolin, there was also the Withered Tree
Spirit King.
However, the Withered Tree Spirit King’s colossal size, reaching a height of a thousand meters with immensely large roots, made it impractical for this small island. Liu Yan wouldn’t have released it if not necessary due to its massive size.
Fortunately, despite being confined, the Withered Tree Spirit King, having lived for over a thousand years, remained patient and content to accompany Liu Yan in his endeavors.
Subsequently, Liu Yan released the special red enchanted puppet.
The special red enchanted puppet was a unique existence, neither entirely an item nor a living being, but a hybrid of both.
Unlike Liu Yan’s other familiars, the special red enchanted puppet hadn’t signed a contract with him, nor could it be considered a familiar, lacking a true life form.
However, being wholly crafted by Liu Yan himself, it obeyed his commands even without a contract, owing to its origin as a creation of Liu Yan.
After the special red enchanted puppet was released, it stood quietly by Liu Yan’s side, waiting silently, just like before.
But Liu Yan felt that something was different.
Liu Yan, through his S-grade perception skill, Omniscient Insight, carefully sensed and observed, only then did he notice the difference.
Just like before, after the special red enchanted puppet was released, it also stood silently in place, waiting for Liu Yan’s command.
The difference was that this time, the special red enchanted puppet was not as stiff. It even actively gazed at and observed Liu Yan.
Liu Yan didn’t give any commands to the special red enchanted puppet. It acted entirely on its
initiative.
Didn’t this mean that the special red enchanted puppet had taken a further step in gaining its consciousness? It didn’t need Liu Yan’s commands to make certain moves!
Being observed by an item he had created was indeed a strange feeling.
Liu Yan further sensed the strength of the special red enchanted puppet and discovered that
its strength had increased.
Last time, the strength of the special red enchanted puppet was the same as the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf, both at the early stage of 14 stars combat strength.
After some time, Liu Yan didn’t train either the special red enchanted puppet or the Ice and
Fire Draconic Wolf.
The combat strength of the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf only increased slightly, almost
negligible.
But this special red enchanted puppet had directly increased its combat strength by one star,
reaching the early stage of 15 stars. It had increased its combat strength by an entire star,
which was a huge improvement!
Liu Yan frowned slightly. He wondered what had happened to the special red enchanted puppet during this period.
