Chapter 155: What? I’m Still Very Talented In Beast Taming (1)
He did not even need to blink to kill a hyena that was not even a mutant beast. His heart remained unruffled.
Zhou Jing casually grabbed a bunch of weeds to wipe the blood off his hands. Suddenly, he realized that the [Item Analysis Function] on the Apostle interface had lit up.
Looking at the interface information, an item introduction popped up.
[A clump of bloody grass]
[Type: Plant, Weeds]
[Rarity: Common—seen everywhere]
[Introduction: It’s a common weed that grows in the wild. Soone used it to wipe their hands, stained with blood. If you don’t mind, you can use it to fill your stomach.]
[Crafting Value: Extrely low. Can be used for dicinal purposes, weaving, combustion…]
“It’s not like we’re cows or horses. Who would eat grass for no reason?”
Zhou Jing complained in his heart. He fiddled with the grass he used to test the [Item Analysis Function].
This support function could directly display the information of an object. Apart from a brief introduction, it could also show him more detailed paraters, such as weight, density, volu, and so on.
Not only could he quickly understand the product’s composition, but he also had a unique advantage in crafting. He could directly reach the level of a Rank 8 technician that was not inferior to machines.
(TL Note: Not sure if Rank is the correct term, but in China, their technicians are graded by numbers, with 8 being the highest. There’s a saying that it takes 3 years to learn the lathe and another 10 years to beco a lousy technician/chanic. Hence this shows how godly a Rank 8 technician is.)
“This function is too suitable for a chanic. In this world of black technology, it’s simply a divine skill.”
Zhou Jing looked curious. He grabbed the grass and soil, not letting go of the hyena’s corpse. He wreaked havoc on the surrounding things, playing and picking everything for a while before giving up.
His nose twitched as he slled the tang of blood spreading out. He did not stay where he was anymore but instead identified the sun’s direction and walked forward. He opened the interface and looked at his current attributes.
[Astral Apostle: Bill (No. 003)]
[Attributes: Physical Fitness 18, Resistance 14, Perception 10, Spirit 7, Energy 0]
[Aptitude: Knowledge [Blue], Pharmacology [Blue], Eloquence [Dark Green], Craftsmanship [Green], Natural Amicability [Green]…]
[Talent: Knowledge Seeker, Apothecary]
[Support Function: [Pet Function], [Item Analysis Function] ]
“The starting attributes and aptitudes of this apostle are much better. I already know how this world works this ti around, so I shouldn’t encounter too many difficulties in the early stages of developnt… At most, I have to learn the language and so dialects. Although I don’t have any skills to support , I’ve basically grasped the northern dialect of the Terra Empire. I’ve deliberately spoken a lot of words, so it’s not a problem for to converse in a day-to-day scenario. This ti, I can also learn the southern dialect since I have the Eloquence aptitude.
“This place shouldn’t be far from the capital. I’ll look for Jason first and see what it’s like to co into contact with an apostle. Then, I’ll think of a way to beco an apprentice pharmacist in the capital.”
Zhou Jing thought about his plan as he walked.
The third Astral Apostle, Bill, took the technical route. One of his life goals was to “build an industry and monopolize it.” In this regard, his biggest competitor was actually the lord. The bigger the city, the harder it was to complete. It would naturally be most difficult in the capital.
He chose to start here because he did not have any plans to complete the life objective in the short term. His main purpose was to co to the capital to learn… If one wished to earn money, they had to first have skills.
It would be best if he could join the Empire Workshop. However, he had used Jason to investigate the situation much earlier and discovered that most of the apprentices in the Empire Workshop were nurtured from a young age. If they were hired from outside, they would only recruit elites who were already at the level of an elite pharmacist.
However, the good thing was that the capital was prosperous. There were many pharmaceutical shops in the region that he could approach to go under tutelage. As long as the teacher’s level was passable, he could rely on his own aptitude and advantage to quickly master it.
“As an outsider, it’s not easy for to be an apprentice to soone else. Apothecaries don’t easily teach others their rice bowl, so I have to use money to clear the way… It seems that I have to borrow so money from Jason.”
Zhou Jing was thinking when his ears suddenly twitched. He heard a creature approaching from the side. He turned around and saw another hyena in the grass.
There were really a lot of wild beasts in the vicinity… Speaking of which, it was quite a coincidence. Mutant beast hunters only hunted mutant beasts. This sort of wild beast was not their target, so they would not specially make a trip here.
Therefore, wild beasts would occasionally appear on the capital’s outskirts and threaten the town’s residents or pedestrians. Usually, they would only be exterminated when ordinary hunters or guards were mobilized.
The hyena-like beast bared its teeth and let out a low growl. It did not pounce on Zhou Jing imdiately but circled behind him vigilantly as it approached.
“You want to poke my ass?”
Zhou Jing subconsciously tightened his muscles as he felt a chill.
Not only did this beast look like a hyena from his world, but its habits were also as perverted.
Although he was a little disgusted… he could use it to test the [Pet Function].
Without another word, he turned around and pounced.
The hyena was already on guard and wanted to dodge, but its speed was much slower than Zhou Jing’s. In the next mont, a large hand grabbed its neck and pressed it to the ground.
Wuwuwu—
The hyena couldn’t help but whimper in panic.
Zhou Jing controlled his strength and slapped the hyena twice before revealing a kind smile.
“Little baby, lie down obediently and don’t struggle. Otherwise, I have to kill you.”
He had yet to learn the technical thod of taming creatures.
However, everyone was self-taught in the ways of physical taming.
It was unknown if it was because of his Natural Amicability or fear, but the hyena indeed seed to understand.
It stopped moving.
Seeing this, Zhou Jing let go.
The hyena sat up and squatted on the spot with its tail between its legs. It looked around and kept licking its lips. From ti to ti, it would glance pitifully at Zhou Jing, not daring to escape.
If it was a pet dog, it would be quite cute. Unfortunately, this was a hyena… No matter how he looked at it, it was still pretty undesirable.
