Residents on both sides of the street kept waving to the small team and cheering for them. This scene reminded many of them of what they looked like back then, and they couldn't help but smile knowingly.
"Boya Marigold" couldn't contain her inner excitement and ran back and forth in the team, harassing almost everyone.
"Bikyo, what pet do you want to catch?"
"Platycodon" is a beautiful child with a pair of pink and phoenix eyes, with a somewhat cold temperament. She usually trains very hard, but unfortunately her talent is mediocre, and her results are always the third best in ten thousand years, behind Luo Jie and "Boya Marigroot".
"Of course it's a snake."
Everyone else in the team basically gave the same answer.
Snakes are the totem of the Nine Snakes. They can not only alert, track, fight, and swim short distances, but can also harden their bodies into various weapons. They are extremely versatile and are also the first choice as pets for most of the Nine Snakes.
"I'm so uncreative. I want to raise an eagle! When it grows up, it can take me to fly in the sky!" "Boya Marigroot" raised her hands in the air with great interest, wishing that the whole world would know about her.
The ideal, "Night Devil, what kind of pet are you going to catch?"
"I haven't thought about it yet... maybe it's a pig." Luo Jie replied casually, rather perfunctorily.
"Why? Because it's cute?"
"No, it won't be of much use in battle anyway. It should be used as a food reserve."
"..."
Catching pets is taming, not hunting, and must be done independently by individuals.
After entering the woods, the lolita dispersed on the spot, looking for their dream pets, leaving only Luo Jie, who was aimless, staring at the sky in a daze.
The pets of the Nine Snakes clan are still useful when they are young. Once their owners reach adulthood, they will basically become real pets, which is even more of a burden to Luo Jie.
But now that we’re here, we have to grab something to go back to.
How about catching a unicorn? At least it's easy to raise and doesn't take up much space.
Okay, just kidding.
Speaking of pets, Luo Jie inexplicably thought of the Straw Hat Pirates' pet, the blue-nosed reindeer "Chopper".
He is usually responsible for being cute, and his main job is the ship's doctor. In an emergency, he can also transform into a fight.
It's perfect as a pet.
Wait, why does this description sound so familiar... Do you have something like this yourself?
Perhaps out of conditioned reflex, Luo Jie subconsciously communicated with the storage space, and then a white dog that looked like a flip-top trash can fell out of thin air.
Luo Jie: "..."
Gouzi: "..."
One person and one dog stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes, and the scene fell into confusion and embarrassment.
——Teigu [Beast God Fusion: Dog of Zuzuo].
屮!艸芔茻!
Why can this dog come out?
Didn't it mean that he couldn't summon any auxiliary combat power such as followers in this field? And he did try, and he couldn't even summon non-combatants like [Hanaryusai Glass].
Wait, did I overlook some details?
Luo Jie quickly turned back and read the instructions for the main mission again.
——[No heroic spirits, followers, or artificial or non-artificial creatures with high intelligence are allowed in this scene.]
Hmm? Someone with high intelligence...
Luo Jie lowered his head and looked at the dog "Xiao Ke" at his feet, who was wagging his tail desperately to please him, and his eyes gradually revealed a look of care for the mentally retarded.
Well, although this dog's IQ has been maliciously ridiculed by the system, it finally gives him a good fighting power.
"Okay, it's up to you - Pikachu!"
Luo Jie rubbed the dog's head frantically, feeling very good.
The dog followed closely behind him with its short legs, looking like a loyal dog with strong self-control ability.
…
"Night Demon, did you really catch a pig?"
At the agreed gathering place outside the city, "Boya Marigold" raised his dog "Xiao Ke" in surprise and looked left and right. Even the eagle he had just caught didn't feel fresh anymore.
"This is a dog...well, if you think it's a pig, then it's a pig."
Except for the different tail, this dog looks exactly like a pig.
Luo Jie didn't bother to correct them one by one with the onlookers. All cute pets have to be unique, and "Chopper" was always regarded as a civet cat.
"Is this delicious?"
A group of lolita began to drool around Gouzi, taking the "reserve food" he just said seriously.
Luo Jie was too lazy to pay attention to these foodies. The attributes of this dog were not compromised at all. If they really dared to secretly do something evil - one bite at a time for a child.
Suddenly, a long trumpet sound came from the watchtower at the top of the city.
"It's our ship that's back!"
The lolita no longer cared about whether the dogs were delicious or not, and ran to the dock in a swarm with their pets.
"Amazon Lily" is located in the windless zone. Even the daring pirates dare not take this route. The only contact with the outside world is the Perfume Serpent, the only ocean-going ship on the island.
This is a two-masted flat-top ship in the style of the Dragon Kingdom. The two sides of the bow are dragged by two huge "snakes". These snakes are highly venomous, even for the sea kings who are as big as a small mountain.
The willingness to provoke allowed the ship to safely enter and exit the windless zone again and again.
The Perfume Serpent goes to sea for several months at a time. When it returns, it will bring back scarce supplies that cannot be produced on the island, such as cloth, ores, seasonings, and various novel and interesting gadgets produced by the outside world.
It is full of attraction for both adults and children.
Therefore, every time the Perfume Snake returns to the island, the island is as lively as a year-end celebration.
At the port pier, the crew members of the Nine Snakes Pirates disembarked one after another, waving and accepting the flowers and cheers from the island residents. The adult women helped unload large and small bags of goods from the ship, and the children surrounded the crew members and asked for candies. They were all in a happy mood.
A cheerful scene.
"It's eldest sister!"
"Boya Marigold" had sharp eyes and saw "Boya Hancock" walking in the crew at a glance, and immediately pulled Luo Jie and ran forward.
"Sister, is it interesting to go to sea? Have you encountered any pirates?"
"We did encounter a group of pirates. They were not even domineering, but they wanted to rob the ship regardless of life and death. In less than three minutes, they were sent to the bottom of the sea to feed the fish. I even killed two of them with my own hands."
The future empress remained aloof as always, showing no trace of warmth even when facing her own sister.
After all, after a year of skin-to-skin contact - being bathed, Luo Jie has a certain understanding of "Boya Hancock". This loli has some character flaws, almost pathological narcissism, and at the same time
Too self-centered.
If the Nine Snakes were not accustomed to talking with their fists and had relatively simple interpersonal relationships, this loli would have died a social death early due to her annoying character.
