Andre's Pet Shop Adventure

Chapter 14: Chapter 14: Food Exploration Journey, a Test of Courage and Harvest



"The host has connected to the 'Extraterritorial Starfall Zone 1002'"

"Connection time is 24 hours..."

"The host is in the novice protection month and has obtained 30 free deaths!"

"The host has obtained a novice space with a capacity of one cubic meter."

"The host has obtained three primary 'Eternal Flower and Grass Identification Techniques'..."

"Please explore on your own..."

A series of system prompts appeared in Andre's mind. He immediately opened his eyes and saw a desolate mountain forest with no signs of civilization in front of him. The stars were shining above his head and the vast space was clearly visible.

Andre quickly scanned the surroundings and confirmed that there were no monsters. He breathed a sigh of relief and then asked the system in his mind: "I just heard that there are 30 free deaths? Isn't this unlimited?"

"Of course not." The system responded calmly, "The unlimited number is only limited to the last novice mission. Now that the host has completed the mission, it can no longer be used!

In addition, after the novice protection month ends, the host will no longer have free deaths. Therefore, please improve your strength as soon as possible, otherwise it will be difficult to move forward in the future!"

Andre was slightly stunned and said helplessly: "According to this situation, if there are no free deaths in the future, what should I do? Will I really die?"

He knew that it would be difficult for him to remain unscathed in a terrifying place like the Thunder Cloud Sea Realm.

"The host can use energy to purchase the number of deaths, and the price is one-tenth of the cultivation plane. When the number of deaths reaches zero, the host will be forcibly teleported back to the main world." The system explained.

"Can I buy it?" Andre suddenly realized and felt relieved. This arrangement was reasonable.

Roar!

Suddenly, a thunderous roar came from the distant sky, as if thunder had suddenly sounded.

Andre was caught off guard and ducked in shock. He immediately saw that the clouds in the sky at the end of his sight were dyed red, as if a fierce battle was breaking out under that sky!

"Oh my God, such a huge roar, even the voice of the king beast is no more than this..." Andre's heartbeat suddenly accelerated. He turned around without hesitation and ran quickly to the other side of the jungle.

After running hundreds of meters.

Bang!

A sharp whistle suddenly sounded, and Andre only had time to turn his head, and saw a ferocious mouth approaching in his sight in an instant.

In an instant, his sight fell into darkness.

He knew he was dead before he even had time to feel the pain.

Moreover, he had never seen clearly what had killed him.

But what was certain was that his body must have been devoured by the monster.

"Is the cultivation plane with only 1 energy point so terrifying? This is simply..." Andre was speechless. How long had he been here? He died in such an unclear way, as if he had died suddenly.

"I am too weak..."

Andre felt exhausted. He was just an ordinary person. For some monsters that were good at lurking and hiding in the dark, he could hardly detect them at all, and they might even come to him on their own initiative...

"Resurrection on the spot / Random resurrection?"

A prompt popped up in front of him.

Andre rolled his eyes. Although he didn't know whether he still had a body in his current dead state, he still habitually raised his hand and clicked "Random resurrection".

The incandescent light surged from all directions like a tide, and his vision gradually became clear.

Soon, Andre saw the surrounding situation clearly. This time he appeared on a desolate hillside covered with gravel. There were sparse weeds around and no monsters.

"Wait, that is..."

Suddenly, Andre saw the pile of stones in the distance shaking slightly. He looked carefully and his hair stood up.

This is not a pile of stones at all. It is clearly a giant python with a rocky body!

Coiled Rock Snake

Attribute: Earth-type pet

Level: Lower eighth-level

Combat power: 81

Qualification: Inferior

Ability control: Coil, Snake Swallow, Landmine Burst, Earth Guardian

While Andre was looking around, the information of this giant python suddenly jumped into his mind. When he saw its level, Andre's pupils shrank slightly. It was actually an eighth-level pet!

However, the qualification of this eighth-level coiled rock snake was extremely poor, which refreshed Andre's cognitive lower limit. Its combat power barely reached the eighth-level level, and it was a weaker one among its kind.

"Run!"

Andre turned around and tried to leave, repeating "Can't see me" in his mouth.

At the moment of turning around, he suddenly caught a glimpse of something from the corner of his eye, and his body stopped immediately.

"Yanzhu fruit?"

Andre looked at a plant near a rock crack four or five meters ahead. It was a small tree half a meter high, with a bunch of fiery red fruits hanging on it, like red raindrops, the size of soybeans, swaying gently in the wind.

He seemed to have known about this plant for a long time, and all kinds of information about it instantly emerged in his mind, including descriptions of its effects, growth cycles, etc.

And the one piece of information that stopped Andre was that it was the favorite food of the Red Vermilion Bird!

"Pet food?" Andre was stunned for a moment. He had never expected that the thing so close to him was a pet food. Thanks to the "Eternal Plant Identification Technique" temporarily given by the system, he was able to know and not miss it.

However...

Andre looked at the rock snake twisting its body slowly in the distance, and his face changed slightly.

But after just a brief hesitation, Andre made a decision immediately. He suddenly rushed out from behind the rock and ran towards the "Yanzhu Fruit" regardless of everything.

He roughly pulled up the whole Yanzhu Fruit by the roots, but the plant grew very firmly. He used too much force and his palm was pierced by the sharp thorns on the rhizome, causing unbearable pain.

"Do you want to store it in the storage space?" The system prompted.

"Collect!"

Andre responded without thinking.

The Yanzhu Fruit in his hand disappeared instantly. At the same time, Andre noticed that there was an extra void space in his mind, which was extremely small, and the Yanzhu Fruit was floating in it.

"Is this the storage space?" Andre glanced at it and breathed a sigh of relief.

Hiss!

Suddenly, the ground around him trembled slightly.

Andre looked up and saw the rock snake in the distance raised its head, and its snake pupils stared at him closely.

Escape!

Without saying anything, Andre turned and ran, even though he knew that the possibility of his escape was very small.

Ten seconds later.

"Resurrection on the spot / Random resurrection?"

The system options appeared again. Without a doubt, Andre failed to escape and was swallowed by the stinking mouth of the rock snake, and was squeezed to death in the body.

The severe pain of the whole body being torn apart seemed like an illusion.

Andre grinned slightly, and at this moment he still felt like he was running naked in the cold wind, shivering instinctively.

"Fortunately, it's not a loss..." Andre comforted himself in his heart, at least he picked some food, although he suffered from pain, but this is the tempering of life.

"There are 28 chances left. If I can collect some food before I die every time, maybe I can fill most of the storage space..." Andre thought to himself, and he actually had some expectations.

"Random resurrection."

Andre made a choice.

The body regained consciousness again, but as soon as it recovered, it felt piercingly cold. Looking around, I was actually soaked in water.

"Where is this random resurrection place?" Andre was shocked. He turned his head and saw several monsters that looked like giant crocodiles slowly crawling over.

"I..."

Before Andre could struggle, his body was instantly thrown down and torn apart.

"Resurrection on the spot / random resurrection?"

"... Random."

"Random."

"Random..."

Dying again and again, resurrecting again and again.

Sometimes I was killed immediately after resurrection, and sometimes I encountered monsters after picking many strange pet fruits in succession.

Soon, the thirty free resurrection opportunities were used up.

"Huh..."

When the dark vision saw light again and the familiar environment in the store came into view, Andre felt a long-lost emotion, both relieved and a little regretful.

"This harvest should be quite rich." Andre saw the storage space in his mind filled with pet food, and he couldn't help but feel a little satisfied. In terms of quantity, it was indeed quite considerable, but he didn't know how the system would judge its value.

"Should we set a price for these pet food?" The system prompted.

"Yes." Andre agreed immediately.

In a flash, the pet food in the storage space disappeared out of thin air. Then, Andre saw bottles and jars, or objects like bonsai, appearing one by one on the shelves behind the store counter. The things in them were, without exception, all pet food that he had collected at the risk of his life.

"The extremely fiery fish-seeking grass is priced at 380 per plant."

"The ice and fire snake scale grass is priced at 800 per plant."

"The rock vermilion fruit is priced at 130 per grain."

Andre looked at these hard-earned results, and his mind was full of thoughts. He knew that this experience was just a small part of his long journey, and there were countless unknown challenges and mysterious opportunities waiting for him in the future. He thought to himself that the hostility of the O'Neill family towards him had not yet dissipated, and they would definitely try to make things difficult for him in the future; and the mysterious magic forest, which was said to hide countless powerful magic treasures and ancient mysterious powers, did he have the courage to explore it? There was also the annual knight selection competition. If he could participate in it, he would not only be able to enhance his popularity and prestige, but also meet many like-minded heroes, but the competition would be extremely fierce. Would he be able to stand out? Andre knew that every choice was related to his own destiny, and he must muster up the courage and firm belief to embark on his own glorious road in this world full of fantasy and adventure. No matter how many difficulties and obstacles there were ahead, he would never back down, because he was Andre, the adventurer with dreams and courage, destined to write his own legendary chapter in this magnificent epic scroll.
