NOVEL WEB Chapter 8
Chapter 8: Dumbfounded Tazik, Raising An Attack-Type Pet!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Listening to the beastly roars coming from afar, Jobs could not help but look at the territory of the Blood Moon Wolf and the Shadow Bear behind him.
The pressure was too strong, just hearing the roar made his body tremble.
Jobs was sure that even if he were to face these two mid-level demonic beasts, the only thing he could do was to protect himself from them.
He did not even dare to think about killing these mid-level demonic beasts and obtaining monster points from that.
According to Information Sharing, the auras of Scott and the other two had disappeared, leaving only the Blood Moon Wolf and the Shadow Bear.
It seemed that Scott and the other two had been dealt with already.
Next, he would only have to return to Tazik’s team.
After all, he did not have any powerful attacks yet. With them around, it would be more convenient for him to return to the town.
Soon, Jobs rushed towards the location of Tazik and the other two after finding them with Information Sharing.
On the other side, deep in Dale Forest.
Tazik and the others were returning to Laner Town with the beast cores from yesterday’s harvest.
However, everyone was feeling a little down.
This was obviously because of Jobs.
In the beginning, they had thought that Jobs voluntarily joined Scott’s team because he wanted to abandon them, as Scott had said.
But soon, they knew they were wrong.
This was because they had seen with their own eyes that the direction where Jobs and the others went was the same place where he had detected the two mid-level demonic beasts.
Very soon, they heard two earth-shaking beast roars. They were only a thousand meters away, but the sound still made them tremble.
It was impossible for Jobs and the others to survive.
At the same time, they knew that Jobs had risked his life to bring Scott into the territory of mid-level demonic beasts for them.
“Boss, that young man helped us solve such a huge problem. Isn’t it inappropriate for us to leave just like that?”
“How about… we wait for those mid-level demonic beasts to leave, and then go retrieve his corpse?” Beirut followed behind Tazik and suggested in a dejected voice.
That was because he felt that Jobs’ death was too much of a pity, especially when he resolutely led Scott and the other two away. That level of resolve was something that Beirut could never imitate.
At the same time, Jobs would never be able to return anymore.
“Sigh, Beirut. I considered that as well, but you must know something.”
“Putting aside whether or not Jobs’ body was eaten after he was killed by the mid-level demonic beasts, just the strength of a mid-level demonic beast shows that it is not something we can afford to provoke.”
“Once we enter their territory, what awaits us will be the same fate as Scott’s team.”
Tazik sighed and looked ahead again.
“Let’s return to the town and report this to the mayor.”
“I believe that the deeds of this heroic young man, Jobs, will definitely earn the respect of everyone in the town!”
“As for us, we will forever remember this lesson that he had taught…”
Tazik was moved by Jobs’ actions, he had barely finished his sentence when suddenly…
There was a voice as something suddenly passed through the bushes and walked out.
Jobs pulled aside the branches and leaves in the bushes as he looked at Tazik and the other two who were momentarily stunned.
“Alright, I’ve already killed the Moonlit Night Demon Hunters using the mid-level demonic beasts.”
“I saw that you didn’t walk too far after I left, so I sped up and caught up with you. I’ll return to town with you.”
Tazik and the others were not listening to Jobs’ explanation.
The three of them looked at Jobs. He had just been declared dead by them, and they were about to return to the village to report this heroic deed. But now, not only was he uninjured, he even managed to catch up to them.
In fact, he even acted like nothing had happened and wanted to return to Laner Town with them?
The three of them were completely shocked and dumbfounded!
“Jo… Jobs, you’re still alive?”
“Didn’t you take Scott and the others to the territory of mid-level demonic beasts? How could you have…”
“How did you survive!”
Beirut was so stunned that he almost said something inappropriate, but he managed to change his words in time.
Sunny’s eyes flashed with disbelief.
Under Tazik’s guidance, she had always known that mid-level demonic beasts were terrifying existences. For example, ordinary Demon Hunters would only die if they encountered them.
And Jobs did not have any magic buffs.
In this situation, Jobs still managed to survive.
At this moment, in her eyes, Jobs was truly a mysterious but extremely charismatic man.
“Jobs, you… I… I can’t believe it. Can you tell us how you survived against Scott and those mid-level demonic beasts?”
Shock flashed in Tazik’s eyes, as an experienced Demon Hunter, Tazik was simply too shocked by Jobs.
Even if Ceso, the strongest Rank Four Swordsman in Laner Town, was asked to do this, he might not be able to do it under the same circumstances as Jobs.
Even though there were many other things he wanted to say, Tazik only asked this.
Seeing that Tazik and the other two were extremely shocked and surprised, Jobs had to explain the situation to them.
“At that time, the aura of Scott and the other two were too obvious. The two mid-level demonic beasts had their eyes on them, so I took this opportunity to escape.”

“So that’s how it is…” Tazik watched Jobs speak slowly, his eyes still flashing with shock. He knew that the matter was definitely not as simple as Jobs had said.
However, since Jobs was unwilling to say anything else, he would naturally not ask further.
“Alright, let’s go back to Laner Town now.” Tazik immediately said that to Jobs.
Jobs joined the team and returned to Laner Town with the three of them.
After arriving at Laner Town, the mission to obtain monster points in Dale Forest had been completed.
There was no longer any meaning in following Tazik’s demon hunting team. After saying a few words and bidding farewell, Jobs prepared to leave.
During the process, Tazik had pleaded with Jobs to stay in his demon hunting team. He had even offered 50% of the monster fur and beast cores as the condition, but Jobs still refused.
That was because these things were useless in increasing his strength.
What he needed were monster points.
After returning home, Jobs opened his system interface.
On the pet column, there was only one pet, the grade 1 Worm Beast [Little Yellow].
His heart skipped a beat as he pondered.
After his trip to Dale Forest, he had realized his shortcomings.
Even with the two skills, Information Sharing and Paralyzing Poison Needle, he was still too weak to face a mid-level demonic beast that was much stronger than him.
He could only watch these mid-level demonic beasts, which were a large number of monster points, from afar as he fled.
He had to raise a new monster immediately.
It had to be one with immense combat and offensive capabilities.
The moment he had this thought, an animal immediately appeared in his mind.
“Snake!”
Indeed, he thought of a snake.
Snakes were very common in the damp environment around his home. At the same time, the characteristics of being a predator and having toxicity satisfied his desire for an attack-type pet.
After making up his mind, Jobs, who was eager to improve the situation, did not hesitate. He immediately walked out and searched the grass around the house to see if there were any pets that fit his current needs.
Soon, he found two snakes. One was a venomous snake and the other was a green snake.
[Ding, would the host like to spend 60 Monster Points to rear a Patterned Viper?]
[Ding, would the host like to spend 40 Monster Points to rear a Green Snake?]
Different monster points were required to enslave different venomous snakes. At the same time, it also meant that each individual’s ability and evolutionary direction were different.
Raising a patterned viper required 20 more monster points than raising a green snake, which meant that its attack power was higher.
But if he chose the venomous snake, then its attacks would definitely be based on its venom and fangs. At present, he already had Little Yellow as his poison-based attacker. Although the venom of the patterned viper would certainly be stronger, its attacking method was not the best option for Jobs.

After a series of calculations, Jobs chose to rear this ordinary green snake that had a greater evolutionary potential.
[Ding! The host has successfully reared a Green Snake!]
The system notification sounded, and the information of a green snake appeared on the system interface.
As for the green snake in front of him, it had also become docile compared to its earlier struggle.
