When the semifinal ended, the contestants dispersed, regardless of whether they were promoted or eliminated.
Xu Ran, carrying Ziyun, set off for his shop.
But he wasnt alone.
By his side was the enthusiastically smiling Hu Zhong.
B0x.comYou plan to have my Mandrill Monkey cared for at your foster shop right away? Xu Ran asked, a hint of surprise on his face as he discovered Hu Zhongs intentions.
Absolutely! Hu Zhong affirmed with a pat on his chest, Your integrity is clear, Brother Xu. This makes it obvious that your foster shop must be top-notch! Its my duty to give you some business.
The true situation had less to do with the quality of Xu Rans shop itself.
It was more about feeling obliged to reciprocate after Xu Rans assistance had given him a respectable seventh place finish.
Hearing that Xu Rans shop charged significantly more than outside care services, he figured that caring for his pet at Xu Rans shop was equivalent to gifting him money.
You have good judgment, Xu Ran replied without any doubt, giving Hu Zhong a look of approval, once youve experienced my services, youll find its well worth the price.
I believe in your skills!
Hu Zhong chuckled openly and quickly turned off the bright light of his phone screen.
He had already found information on the care pricing of Xu Rans foster shop on the Beast Master Forum.
The care for a Mandrill Monkey, a medium-sized pet beast, cost 26,666 yuan.
As for Xu Rans claim that the services are worth the price, Hu Zhong found that hard to believe.
However, that didnt matter much. He was adamant about using Xu Rans services.
During their leisurely journey, they quickly arrived at the Starfire Foster Care Shop.
Following Xu Ran into the shop, and seeing the price list on the wall, Hu Zhong still couldnt help but twitch at the corners of his mouth despite already knowing the figures.
With prices so high, it makes sense why Xu Ran would want to advertise so aggressively.
But wont such high prices deter customers, making the advertising efforts futile? Why hasnt he considered lowering the prices?
While Hu Zhong grumbled inwardly, his expression remained unchanged. He did not hesitate to scan the price code and make the payment, Brother Xu, Ill hand my Mandrill Monkey over to you!
Ok, Xu Ran nodded slightly, and looked at the Mandrill Monkey.
Race Name: Mandrill Monkey
Attribute: Earth
Development Level: Transcendent
Body Type: Medium
Maintenance Need:
Evaluation: A monkey that may seem clean on the surface, but deep within its fur, it needs the comforting touch of its owner. Show it the power of proper grooming!
Xu Rans system was sounding more dramatic than ever.
While he thought this to himself, Xu Ran petted the big Mandrill Monkeys shoulder, Lets go.
Roar!
The Mandrill Monkey agreed with anticipation.
Even though its Beast Master brought it here as a token of gratitude, the monkey had recently been bothered by sudden bouts of itchiness. Perhaps proper grooming could solve the problem.
There is a lounge over there, you can rest or choose to watch the grooming. Xu Ran pointed in the direction of the lounge.
Then, Ill wait in the lounge, Hu Zhong said without hesitation.
Alright. Xu Ran entered the grooming room with the Mandrill Monkey and closed the door.
Meow- (Shopkeeping duties, shopkeeping duties!)
Ziyun hopped lightly onto the counter, assuming a look-out pose looking towards the shop door.
It seemed to remember something and twisted its head to glance at Hu Zhong, who was sitting on the sofa in the lounge.
HmmNo headphones, thats good.
Ziyun began to look forward to the upcoming scene.
[To improve the results of this grooming session, the system will endow the host with the Fundamentals of Grooming Simian Beasts]
With a flurry of Mandrill Monkey-relevant grooming knowledge coursing through his mind, Xu Ran skillfully picked up the showerhead. Once the water was at the right temperature, he directed it towards the obedient Mandrill Monkey lying on the grooming platform.
Splash-
Accompanied by the mellow sound of water, the slightly knotted and dirt-laden fur of the Mandrill Monkey was quickly drenched, sticking to its robust figure.
The once bulky Mandrill Monkey now seemed to have grown a size smaller due to the drenched fur.
With the toll of the water current, not only the ends, but also the roots of its fur were moistened. This warm sensation continuously penetrated from the roots of its fur.
Roar-
A comfortable expression surfaced on the face of the Mandrill Monkey, and its body involuntarily twisted a bit.
[Pleasure value from Mandrill Monkey +5]
Not bad, quite a high pleasure value.
After glancing at the writhing Mandrill Monkey, Xu Ran picked up a pair of tweezers with a curved tip from a nearby toolbox, once the monkeys fur was thoroughly wet.
Mandrill Monkeys often contract small bugs that hide in their hair follicles, feeding on the Earth Attribute Transcendent Power emitted by the monkey. The bugs grow larger as they absorb this power.
Once the bugs are grown, they block the hair follicles of the Mandrill Monkey, forming small bulges under the skin and causing intermittent itching in the monkey.
The shower water used to wet the monkeys body contained not only a modest amount of Earth Attribute Resources, which comforted the monkey, but also a medicinal compound that would daze the bugs.
At this moment, the medicine was taking effect.
As Xu Ran searched the monkeys body, he quickly found a swelling and parted the drenched fur of the Mandrill Monkey. A small, slightly bulging spot came into his view.
A hair pore harboring a parasite. From the surface, one could only see a tiny red point at the top of the bulge.
Found it!
Xu Ran took the tweezers, carefully inserted it into the red spot in the center of the bulge and clamped onto the object within, slowly pulling it out..
