293: Chapter 293: Change to a New Look 293: Chapter 293: Change to a New Look No matter what, Jeana was a must-have companion, so Zhao Guang hurried to the Beastman border. Seeing Zhao Guang arrive, Jeana rushed over at once, “Master, you’ve come to pick me up.” Zhao Guang, a bit puzzled, patted Jeana on the head. Why had this girl suddenly become so clingy? He had often come to the Beastman side before, but it had never been like this. It might be because they hadn’t seen each other for a long time, so she missed him. Little girls are like that. Zhao Guang didn’t know that in Jeana’s heart, the Beastmen on the border were truly terrifying. She hadn’t realized it before, but after spending a long time here, she had noticed. The cesspools here would occasionally explode, a scenario too frightful to even think about. Even though she stayed at Aleya’s house continuously, sometimes she still had to go out. Whenever an explosion sounded in the camp, Jeana would shiver. “Lord Zhao Guang, Jeana has now completed all her training; she can only rely on experience for improvement from now on,” Zhao Guang nodded, “I hope that once we settle down, we can continue to have Beastman teachers mentor Jeana in gaining experience.” Experience was sometimes just as important as knowledge, not much less significant. “Of course, we also very much hope to collaborate with you again,” Aleya gave a smile, then waved her hand, and someone came forward carrying a jar. “This is?” Zhao Guang’s mood became excited as he thought of something. “Octopus Softworm. The royal court has agreed to the trade, but you need to sign a contract,” “A contract, what kind of contract?” Zhao Guang frowned, as contracts couldn’t be signed lightly. Otherwise, breaking them would definitely lead to punishment—a punishment whose cost is often substantial. Even with great strength, sometimes the cost is difficult to compensate. Moreover, seeing the contract that Aleya had brought out, with the power emanating from it, this definitely wasn’t any low-level contract. If violated, with his current strength, he might very well lose his life on the spot. “The Octopus Softworm is very important, so we need to impose some restrictions. This contract is merely a stipulation that you must use it only for cultivating your battle skills and not for anything else,” Zhao Guang picked it up to see, indeed, it could only be used to cultivate battle skills. It couldn’t be sold as a solution, used in medicine production, transferred, discarded, or even lost. There were also a plethora of other clauses covering virtually every scenario. It appeared that contracts were taken very seriously in this world; this one left no loopholes whatsoever. Zhao Guang didn’t know that the Beastmen had been tricked many times before; each time they were tricked, they would fix a loophole in the contract. As a result, over time, it turned into this kind of thing. So, the contracts signed by the Beastmen and humans, not to mention other things, a big part of them consisted of various restrictive clauses. Zhao Guang confirmed repeatedly, making sure there were no problems, no traps, and no text masquerading as patterns, before finally writing his name on it contentedly. The contract turned into light points and disappeared, and Zhao Guang also felt a shackle appear in his spirit. This shackle was invisible, but he could clearly feel it, and it constantly reminded him. “Alright, from now on, this octagonal softworm is yours, but how are you going to use it?” The jar was opened, revealing a huge creature resembling an octopus inside. However, Zhao Guang knew these were not eight tentacles but eight soft horns, which just looked like tentacles. The octagonal softworm had no intelligence, or rather, its intelligence was comparable to that of a starfish, the dullest of the dull. It managed to survive simply because it was not tasty and recovered quickly. “As long as it is in constant contact with me, that’s fine. Since this octagonal softworm is big enough, I’ll just put it on my back,” Zhao Guang thought and casually stripped off his clothes, letting others place it on his back. The Beastmen didn’t care and somehow managed to wrap the softworm around him very securely. He just had to put his clothes back on, and it did not affect anything. He circulated his Combat Energy and felt that familiar intense pain. Moreover, this pain was even stronger than the last time. He thought that as one’s strength increased, the pain from condensing skills should lessen each time, but it seemed to be the reverse for him. Or was it because the rank of the Lifebound Battle Skill this time was higher? But thinking it over, he realized that he indeed modified this Lifebound Battle Skill a bit. There was no helping it, having gotten used to modifying thanks to his broader knowledge, Zhao Guang always instinctively wanted to modify new Battle Skills and Spells, so it was imaginable that they would be more powerful. After putting on his clothes, Zhao Guang saw the tendrils extending from his sleeves occasionally wrapping around. This image looked just like the evil aliens from Western movies. However, Aleya nodded satisfactorily after seeing Zhao Guang’s appearance, indicating that it was very good. “Very good, there’s nothing hindering me.” Zhao Guang moved a bit and then stood up. “So if there’s nothing else, I’ll be off first, I still have many things to do.” Zhao Guang took out the balance and added quite a few blue pills. “No worries, I know you’ve been very busy recently. If you settle down, remember to let us know, just tear open this scroll,” Aleya handed Zhao Guang a scroll, and he nodded, securing it. Also secured were the Beastman Holy Water that Aleya took out, it seemed that the Beastmen were also prepared. Hers Space Equipment seemed to be a little bag. It was unclear whether both sides had the same type of technology, for now, Zhao Guang chose not to delve into that. When it came to Spells involving space, Zhao Guang had absolutely no understanding. Having packed everything, both sides were very satisfied, and Zhao Guang walked back with Jeana. But it wasn’t seen, after leaving, Jeana breathed a long sigh. Indeed, it was best to stay by her master’s side. Now that she herself was a Priest, she would surely be able to help her master in the future. Looking at that tall figure, Jeana suddenly felt very happy. Of course, this good mood lasted until they got home. Seeing Xi Fei’s increasingly radiant figure, Jeana felt a bit stifled. It’s just an Enchantress, did she really have to dazzle the master to distraction? Humph, when Jeana grows up, she will definitely be prettier than you, Jeana clenched her little fist and silently thought. Xi Fei, however, didn’t care about Jeana’s appearance and grabbed her, cuddling and playing with her.
