BXBX NOVEL Chapter 84 Greeny (1)
Lin Fan was very grateful to this since he didn\'t have the same kind of information network as the Mercenary Guild.
If they didn\'t tell him, he certainly wouldn\'t have been able to know when his would be assassins would arrive until they came to kill him.
As he was leaving, Lin Fan didn\'t forget to take a look at the mission that everyone had been gathering around.
It was a mission about searching for someone and the setting behind it was a father looking for his daughter. However, it was clear by the description of the daughter that this person was looking for Xiao Yue.
The features described were close to Xiao Yue\'s features, but there were a few differences.
After all, this was a time before photography, so it wouldn\'t be strange if there were differences because of memory issues.
But this made it clear that this mission was issued by the Sheng Family, or rather by Young Master Sheng in search of Xiao Yue. It seemed like Lin Fan\'s actions from all that time ago had finally caught up to him.
However, that was also strange.
Why did it take this long for Young Master Sheng to take any action?
It shouldn\'t have taken him that long to realize that something had happened to the bandits that he had sent to kidnap Xiao Yue? So why did it take him this long to finally take action?
Moreover, he didn\'t use the guards of the Sheng Family, but rather he chose to hire mercenaries to find Xiao Yue with…
All of this seemed a bit too unusual, unless…
Young Master Sheng cared so little that he didn\'t even bother handling this himself? He had given this matter to one of his subordinates to handle?
If that was the case, then Lin Fan could feel much more assured.
After all, Young Master Sheng was someone who could pull out something as amazing as the Daoist Seed, so he was certainly someone with connections. It wouldn\'t be strange at all if he was someone that was connected to a sect.
That would have been Lin Fan\'s greatest worry.
But now it seemed like he didn\'t care that much about finding Xiao Yue if he\'s even willing to leave this matter in the hands of a subordinate.
If it was just a subordinate, Lin Fan could feel assured in handling whatever came, but if it was Young Master Sheng himself, Lin Fan couldn\'t feel confident.
It seemed like it was a good thing that Tian Tian had asked him to stay put.
During this time where there was this mission, it was best if Xiao Yue didn\'t go out too much and either stayed at their house or inside of the Pet Storage Space.
In the end, Xiao Yue chose to stay in the house since staying inside the Pet Storage Space was a bit too claustrophobic. At the very least, she could leave the house if she really needed to, but the Pet Storage Space really didn\'t have that option unless Lin Fan let her out.
…
The next morning, Lin Fan took another mission at the Mercenary Guild alone because he wanted to go out to test something.
It was a B Rank hunting mission for a spirit beast that was nearby, but Lin Fan didn\'t care about that quest at all. He just used it as an excuse to get out of the city.
So instead of him taking care of it himself, he sent Hayase out to take care of it.
Of course to convince him, he had to send Shiro along with him as a sort of date between the two of them.
Shiro was unwilling at first, but after hearing what they were doing, she agreed in the end.
She didn\'t look like it since she was a cute little rabbit, but she was actually quite the bloodthirsty rabbit. Whenever there was a fight that she could participate in, she would always choose to participate.
Still, when Lin Fan carefully thought about it, it kind of made sense considering that she was a magic beast.
Magic beasts needed to fight for experience points to level up, so it was in their nature to fight and grow stronger. After all, those that didn\'t grow stronger would become experience points for those that did.
So Lin Fan just let the two of them go off by themselves.
He had faith in Hayase since he had already reached level 30. Hayase was already at the same level as someone in the Sixth Qi Gathering Realm.
This mission was only for a beast in the Fourth Qi Gathering Realm, so it wouldn\'t be a problem for Hayase to take care of this beast alone.
As for Lin Fan, he chose to head off into the forest.
He had sent the Gale Sparrow out to find a secluded spot for himself before sending it out to help Hayase and Shiro track down their target.
He had chosen to come to this secluded place because he wanted to test out something that he didn\'t want anyone else to know about.
After ensuring that no one else was in the area, Lin Fan opened his Pet Storage Space to call out another one of his pets. However, this was a pet that was completely different from every single other one of his pets.
Instead of being a flesh creature, this was a pet that seemed to be made of plants.
This was a being that was completely made of vines and when all those vines came together, it made it look like a snake. But different from a normal snake, there were also four limbs that were formed from the vines, that seemed to function like arms and legs.
It stood there in front of Lin Fan with its two feet and looked up at him with big eyes. Then it suddenly revealed a smile as it came forward to hug Lin Fan\'s leg, rubbing up against it.
As it rubbed against Lin Fan\'s leg, it made purring sounds almost as if it was calling Lin Fan "mama".
But of course, Lin Fan could understand what it was saying because of the telepathy between them and it was indeed what it was saying.
This plant creature\'s name was Greeny and it was what had hatched from the seed that Lin Fan had purchased from the auction.
Lin Fan had planted that seed in the Pet Storage Space as soon as he received it and it had only taken a few days before it was fully grown. After it finished growing, it suddenly came out of the ground and formed this vine creature that was now in front of Lin Fan.
Since the Pet Storage Space belonged to Lin Fan, there was a sort of imprinting that happened with this vine creature and it immediately stuck itself to Lin Fan after it had been grown.
However, Lin Fan wasn\'t as shocked that the seed that he had bought had grown into a creature. He was actually more shocked by the description of the creature that he received when he looked at it with his Appraisal Eyes.
Overlord Vine (Child): Unknown grade
Level: 1
HP: 100/100
MP: 1000/1000
Strength: 20
Vitality: 50
Agility: 30
Intelligence: 200
Innate Skills: Parasite Seeds, Share Senses, Vine Overlord.
Skills: Vine Whip, Vine Bind, Explosive Seeds, Vine Thorn, Leaf Blade, Leech Seeds.
It was a beast that even the system couldn\'t measure the grade of. Not to mention that the stats that it had was close to the stats that Hayase had when he was already level 10.
So this meant that this was a beast that had an even greater bloodline than the almighty dragon…
Wouldn\'t that mean that this was a god level beast?
Lin Fan didn\'t even know how to feel about this since he wasn\'t certain that he would even be able to control something like this.
However, since it was born in the Pet Storage Space that was owned by him, this pet was born with 80% affection and was automatically tamed by him.
Over the past few days, Greeny had grown at an incredible rate and was now already capable of walking on its own and could even communicate with simple words.
As for how it was communicating, it used its Parasite Seeds skill.
As the name of Greeny\'s species implied, it could control others with this Parasite Seeds skill, but that depended on the strength of its victims. If the victims were weaker than it, Greeny was able to easily inject its seeds into people and control them.
If the victims were stronger than it, it would depend on the willingness of the victim.
If the victim was willing to accept the seed, Greeny was still able to inject them with the seed and control them.
Of course, Greeny was Lin Fan\'s pet, so Greeny didn\'t want to do that.
But the Parasite Seed allowed Greeny to form a mental connection with Lin Fan which was what it normally used to control people, so Greeny was able to share thoughts with Lin Fan and talk to him.
That just went to show just how powerful the 200 intelligence stat was.
