61 Chapter 51 Mr. Husky's Background_2
Lu Ran: ???
"No," Lu Ran saw Xiao Ling's excited expression and knew she had misunderstood something, "I'm here to find someone."
"What, you already have a target?! Who is it?"
"Your Manager Ying. But it has nothing to do with your private messages. I have business with him; is he here?" Lu Ran had a face full of black lines, this person really did want to set him up.
What a joke, join the queue, join the queue...
In Green Sea City, who knows how many pet cats and dogs wanted to introduce Lu Ran to their owners? After all, Lu Ran was generous and open-handed, often randomly dropping high-grade pet treats when walking Mr. Husky.
Green Sea's Beast Trainer sensation!
"Ah..." Xiao Ling was slightly startled, looking for Manager Ying?
She had not even seen the true form of Manager Ying! She had only heard the name.
"No need to look for me, I'm right here." Just then, a Ragdoll cat appeared out of nowhere on a bookshelf, blending naturally into the group of pet beasts in the maid coffee shop, not attracting the attention of the other maids, and looked at Lu Ran indifferently.
Upon hearing this arrogant voice, Lu Ran immediately broke into a smile.
At this moment, Xiao Ling, who was attending to Lu Ran, was at a loss, shocked at the Ragdoll that had spoken.
Crap! Whispering to a customer during working hours with the intent to leak other employees' information and being caught by the boss!
The worst part was that she hadn't even charged for the information!
Danger!
Ying glanced at Xiao Ling and said, "Go attend to your own duties, Little Ghost Lu, come with me."
With that, its figure vanished, and simultaneously, Lu Ran also disappeared from the spot, teleported away.
Watching Lu Ran vanish, Xiao Ling was dumbfounded.
At this moment.
Inside the Neko Maid Cafe, a VIP room.
Lu Ran was teleported directly onto the sofa, plopping down.
"Manager Ying... give me a heads-up next time before teleporting, it's really frightening," Lu Ran said with a wry smile.
"Definitely next time," Manager Ying snorted, "All right, your bounty for capturing the Necromancer has come through, a total of 10,000 crystal coins."
"That much???" Lu Ran was astonished.
"It's reasonable. Capturing a Necromancer in Xia Country, even just an intern, has a much higher return rate than challenging the Secret Realm, since Necromancers are rare, and rarity brings value..."
Is that how you use rarity brings value???
Lu Ran complained internally.
As he spoke, the corners of Manager Ying's mouth lifted, "However, it might not be easy to take this sum of crystal coins with you..."
Lu Ran: ???
"What do you mean..." Lu Ran's mouth twitched, what, you still want to withhold it? Wasn't it agreed that it was all mine?
Although, if the other party withheld it, Lu Ran really wouldn't have much to say.
"Don't be nervous, I don't even care about these 10,000 crystal coins. If I say they're yours, they're yours," Manager Ying said, "It's just that I have a piece of information here that you're definitely interested in..."
"But the price is not cheap, oh."
"What information." Lu Ran was taken aback.
"I was also planning to buy some information here..."
Manager Ying said, "No rush, let's talk about mine first. Your Husky, you picked it up, right?"
"Yes..." Lu Ran furrowed his brows. This cat... investigated him?
In a single night, it found out even the fact that Mr. Husky was picked up?
"Your Husky must have some traits that are different from other pet dogs. For example, when it goes into battle mode, it easily becomes enraged, losing its sanity. As a result, its strength soars, becoming more fierce and powerful than some large breeds of dogs or fighting dogs, comparable to an adult Wolf King, right?"
Lu Ran was speechless. How did this cat investigate so thoroughly?
"So, what information exactly do you want to sell me?" Lu Ran asked.
Manager Ying smiled and said, "You must have searched for your Husky's origins yourself but didn't find anything, right? Aren't you curious why, after it becomes enraged, it can even attain the combat power similar to that of an adult Wolf King?"
"Are you saying you know its origin?" Lu Ran stood up, his expression turning serious. This issue was indeed something Lu Ran had been investigating without success.
His pet Mr. Husky had exceptional talents, and even Lu Ran could only explain it with special lineage or atavistic phenomena. The specific reasons were beyond his judgment, but without a doubt, if he knew where Mr. Husky came from, he should be able to clear up much of the mystery.
"To buy or not to buy!"
"To buy." Lu Ran gritted his teeth. Of course, he wanted to buy.
Damn information dealer.
"Alright, I'll charge you 1000 crystal coins. After all, this information wasn't easy to come by. I'll deduct it from that 10,000 crystal coins." Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"Okay." Lu Ran nodded, relieved. He had thought the other party would demand an exorbitant price, but it seemed they were just upholding the most basic ethic of an information dealer.
"Now can you tell me, the origins of Mr. Husky?"
Manager Ying said, "Firstly, its genes are indeed excellent. It's not a cultivated pet dog. It was born in the Northern Ice Plain as a pup, so it's wilder."
Lu Ran said, "I could figure that out. That guy's lineage is indeed very close to the Arctic wolf. The information you mentioned, it isn't just this, right?"
"Of course not. Its origin is just the reason why it could come to Xia Country."
Manager Ying said, "Who told you it's important? Is it possible that it wasn't valued because it was a failed creation? If you didn't have superpowers, who could tame a dog that frequently goes berserk? Obviously, it's not suitable for contracting."
23:27
"Your parents are both biological scientists. You must have heard of the name 'Yun Han'."
Lu Ran was taken aback and said, "Dr. Yun Han?"
He had some memories of the man, known to be a genius scientist, whom even Lu Ran's parents greatly admired.
Lu Ran had frequently heard his parents mention him as a child, and most importantly, he seemed to be from Green Sea City.
"That's right. He learned about the existence of the profession of Beast Trainer two years ago and has since been dedicated to animal research. He hoped to create the most powerful Pet Beasts through biotechnologies and genetic modification."
"He pulled strings to collect a group of animals with decent talents from around the world. Your Husky was one of them."
"You mean, Mr. Husky is an experimental subject?"
Lu Ran's expression turned grave. He had never imagined that Mr. Husky was an experimental subject of biological gene modification.
"Why would Mr. Husky end up wandering the streets?" Lu Ran was perplexed.
"Shouldn't such an important experiment be well guarded?"
Manager Ying said, "Who told you it's important? Is it possible that it wasn't valued because it was a failed creation? If you didn't have superpowers, who could tame a dog that frequently goes berserk? Obviously, it's not suitable for contracting."
"The Green Sea Biological Institute, run by Yun Han, had a major accident, allowing many experimental subjects to escape. Although most have been recovered, there are always some that slip through the net."
After a pause, Lu Ran said, "Dr. Yun Han, is he still in Green Sea City?"
"That's all in the past. He's now a foreign national, having taken his research findings and joined the technologically advanced Divine Eagle Federation. He's even started working on the dinosaur resurrection project. He probably wouldn't have the time nor the inclination to care about such a failed experimental subject. So be at ease and just take care of it."
