52: Chapter 49 Rou Qiu and Broken Teeth 52: Chapter 49 Rou Qiu and Broken Teeth Xiao Jie was speechless and thought to himself, was the Beast Language Skill really ant to be used like this?
Although he could indeed ask, these dogs wouldn’t understand anything about attribute skills and such; he guessed they would all boast about how amazing they were.
Having interacted with animals frequently, he had gradually noticed a characteristic about these little creatures; they were completely devoid of any concept of modesty, sowhat resembling children who had not yet grown up.
“No need for all that trouble, I’ll just look at them to know which ones are good.”
“Feng, you know how to judge dogs too?”
“A little.”
Of course, Xiao Jie didn’t know anything about judging dogs, but he had the Beast Recognition skill which allowed him to see the basic information of the dogs, and naturally, he could choose a hunting dog to his liking.
Thus, he began looking at each one in turn.

Level 4…
Hey, these two are a bit interesting.
Although these hunting dogs had different skills, it seed that Bite, Sprint, and Tracking Technique were standard, with most of them possessing these three skills.
It was rely a matter of different focal points, so ran fast, so bit fiercely, and so were better at tracking.
Yet, there were two that were sowhat different.
One was Broken Teeth, and the other was Rou Qiu.
The attack skill of Broken Teeth wasn’t Bite, but Choking.
Upon checking the description, it seed to be a high-level substitute skill for Bite, capable of locking onto the target’s throat to inflict greater damage and might even cause a silencing effect.
Wild Frenzy Lv1: Increases damage by 30% for 15 seconds and grants immunity to fear effects.
It seed that Broken Teeth was a special breed born for battle.
As for Rou Qiu, it was the other extre.
Life Tenacity Lv2: (Passive) Increases Life Value ceiling by an additional 20%.
Bark Lv1: Lets out a piercing dog bark, distracting surrounding enemies, preventing them from maintaining a Concentration state, and has a certain probability of attracting attacks from nearby enemies.
This combination of skills was also phenonal; this fellow wasn’t fast, nor was its nose sensitive, but it could definitely serve as a decent at shield.
Xiao Jie recounted these hunting dogs’ skills to I Want to Be Immortal.
I Want to Be Immortal’s eyes imdiately lit up, looking excitedly at Broken Teeth and Rou Qiu.
These were the equivalent of top-grade pets.
“Feng, which one do you want?
I think Broken Teeth is pretty good.” Rou Qiu was a large yellow dog, albeit plump and sturdy, yet it sohow lacked a bit of a deterrent factor, whereas Broken Teeth was a black and gray wolfhound that indeed looked more eye-catching in appearance.
Xiao Jie nodded, “Alright, then I’ll choose Rou Qiu.”
Rou Qiu: Good choice, good choice, I’m really good in a fight.
Scar: What kind of judgnt is that, Rou Qiu is just a waste, all it knows is to howl during a fight.
Xunlei: Exactly, exactly, choose , I’m super fast, definitely a great hand at catching rabbits.
The hunting dogs were all vying to proclaim their worth, it seems like the dog food was not wasted.
However, Xiao Jie was unmoved; being fast was of little significance.
In the event of danger, pets’ duty was to cover the rear.
Being tough-skinned and hard-muscled was key, able to take a few seconds more of damage while he could run farther away, let alone having the Barking Skill to attract aggro.
Rou Qiu was definitely a top-grade pet.
The thought process of I Want to Be Immortal was quite different; in his view, being a strong attacker was what mattered most.
And besides, Broken Teeth also looked cool.
Both were quite satisfied with their own choice of hunting dog, and it was ti to begin their leveling adventure for the day.
After replenishing yesterday’s consud supplies, the two set off.
Having pets felt altogether different; the two hunting dogs led the way, with the two n following behind, significantly increasing their sense of security, at least they didn’t have to use their faces to scout anymore.
Xiao Jie was determined to stay outdoors all day and thoroughly level up.
Strive to level up twice, get a few pieces of equipnt, then co back.
With practiced ease, the two headed straight for the farm.
After a night’s absence, the scarecrows in the wheat field had respawned.
The crows, chased into the sky, hovered helplessly above.
Seeing the two with the dog, they seed to have found their savior.
“Humans, caw-caw-caw, quickly kill the scarecrows, caw-caw-caw, need to eat,” they squawked.
“Roger that, but you guys need to help check for other monsters around, or any demons?”
“Caw-caw-caw, roger that,” the three crows, keen to eat the wheat, imdiately took action and flew off in three different directions, circling above the farm.
A mont later, they flew back.
“Caw-caw, just scarecrows,” one reported.
“Caw-caw, no demons,” said another.
“Caw-caw, I saw a few big rats, over by the eastern barn, caw-caw,” the third one added.
Big rats?
Xiao Jie glanced eastward and imdiately spotted the towering barn.
Besides the Tian Family Mansion, the farm was surrounded by several dilapidated wooden huts, stables, and a huge barn, presumably for storing grain.
The wooden huts and stables were already in ruins, doors gone, but the barn looked intact.
Approaching the barn, indeed, they spotted several big rats loitering around.
[Big Rat (Beast)
Life Value: 60.
Level 3.
Skills: GNAW Lv2, PLAGUE Lv1.]
These rats were the size of small pigs, with crimson eyes, and instead of running away upon seeing humans, they charged right at them.
Xiao Jie knew better than to take them lightly; in this ga, not a single monster was easy to face.
“Rou Qiu—go!”
“Broken Teeth—go!”
At the command, both hunting dogs imdiately charged.
At the sa ti, Xiao Jie and I Want to Be Immortal also released their arrows.
The leading big rat beca the target of their combined fire, taken down by the volley of arrows.
The two rats behind it were entangled by the dogs, a fierce battle of bites ensued, with the dogs clearly having the upper hand.
“Take down the remaining one!” Xiao Jie swiftly loosed another arrow.
After a second round of arrows, the second rat was downed.
Only then did the two switch to lee weapons and finished off the two rats that were critically wounded by the dogs.
“Haha, that fight was too easy.
Having dogs really makes a difference,” I Want to Be Immortal exclaid excitedly.
Xiao Jie agreed.
Setting aside the combat ability of the hunting dogs, just the fact that they helped attract attention was worth the price paid.
Unfortunately, the loot dropped by the big rats was lackluster, consisting only of their hide and at.
Looking around, they did not find more big rats and tried pushing the barn door, only to discover it was locked.
Well, better get back to farming those scarecrows.
But when they started farming the scarecrows again, they ran into an embarrassing issue.
The dogs’ blood volu was too low; Rou Qiu was still okay with a blood volu of 108, likely to survive, but Broken Teeth had only a blood volu of 90.
If it got caught in a Fla Embrace, it would probably be in danger.
These hunting dogs were expensive acquisitions for the two, and just like humans, they had only one life; once dead, they were gone.
Moreover, only the first was given for free; if it died and they wanted another, they would have to pay for it.
