Chapter 81 Dirty Things, Temporary Contract with the Nightmare Wolf (Seeking First Subscription!)
[Rookie Tournament Gameplay: Acquiring Ecological Seeds]
On this map, numerous rare spirits guard the ecological seeds, scattered throughout various corners of the map. Try to persuade or defeat them to obtain the ecological seeds!
[Rookie Match Gameplay: Falling Supply Crates]
The supply crates contain various materials and important resources! They've landed in several locations on the map; first come, first served!
Lin Wu glanced at the announcements, then scrolled down, his eyes lighting up with surprise.
The announcement clearly indicated the starting location of the event for Lin Wu, which was roughly the area where the ecological seeds and fallen materials were located.
For a moment, Lin Wu couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.
"Let's not delay, let's set off immediately."
Lin Wu stood up and walked quickly outside.
At the same time, he began to hope that he could find a reliable fighting force.
Resources—should we put them aside for now and acquire them later when our combat strength is greater?
So, after thinking for a moment, he simply turned around and hurried toward the ecological seeds guarded by the marked rare elves.
"babble?"
Inside the Beast Taming Space, Shi Huanchong raised its head and looked at its Beast Tamer's every word and action. For some reason, it felt a strange sense of unease.
Is something wrong with the Beastmaster's condition?
Meanwhile, on the other side...
Lai Ping, from Fengdu High School, reached out and took the evil-type ecological seed that was sitting in the black water in front of him, and put it into his beast-taming space.
"It doesn't suit my own attributes—no, that's not right. My goal is ecological seeds, so I'll accept it first."
Lai Ping first frowned and muttered something, then his brows relaxed and he no longer hesitated.
"roar----"
Nearby, a black wolf, already covered in wounds, howled softly. Lai Ping glanced at the wolf and let out a sneer.
----------
The wolf was jet black and looked somewhat ethereal, like a spirit.
This is the Pokémon next to the Dark-type Eco Seed; it's quite powerful. Defeating this guy alone took Laihei a lot of effort.
Although there were considerable losses, it was all worthwhile to obtain ecological seeds.
Everything that belongs to him is his; every single ecological seed is his!
"Get out of here."
He grinned, picked up the ecological seeds in his hand, and strode away.
As if he had found a treasure, a hint of greed appeared in his eyes.
The elf named Demon Wolf lay down, licking its wounds, and looked in the direction Lai Ping had gone, wincing in pain.
No way—we must get those ecological seeds back!
For Momo Wolf, who is just one step away from becoming an advanced elf, that ecological seed is his hope for advancement!
Even sharing the ecological seeds with him would have been fine, but Lai Ping just snatched them away!
In that instant, such thoughts flashed through the mind of the Demon Wolf, and then, with a limp, it stood up.
Soon, his mind was filled with that ecological seed. He racked his brains, trying to figure out how to get it back.
In just a few minutes, it began to develop into a kind of obsession.
No matter how much he thought about it, Demon Wolf couldn't come up with a plan. With Lai Ping already far away, it was difficult to catch up. Even if he did, it would be hard to defeat him and reclaim what was rightfully his—
But soon, that thought became irrelevant, and the obsession with that ecological seed regained its advantage. The Demon Wolf growled softly, stopped thinking about other things, and walked directly in the direction Lai Ping had left.
However, before they had taken more than a few steps, a boy approached them, causing the Demon Wolf to stop. At the same time, the boy also stopped, looking at the scene before him with curiosity. He then looked up and saw the black pool behind the Demon Wolf.
Then, Lin Wu raised his eyebrows slightly, picked up the encyclopedia and scanned it, and saw the wolf shadow in front of him, which was like a ghost and composed of half-spirit.
The next moment, when they saw the name "Demon Wolf", their eyes lit up slightly.
Through such a long period of study, Lin Wu has gained a general understanding of many elves.
And this naturally includes the Demon Wolf.
The Demon Wolf, a Dark-type Pokémon, is an extremely rare species. Its entire body possesses a soul-like quality, and it has fierce attack power and powerful characteristics.
Especially this Demon Wolf, Lin Wu judged with just a glance that this Demon Wolf was close to advancing to the next level, and its stats must be quite high!
It is obvious that this is a rare wild Pokémon that exists in the arena, and it is also a Pokémon that guards the ecological seeds!
Isn't this exactly the "help" I've been looking for?
So Lin Wu lowered his body and beckoned to the Demon Wolf. The Demon Wolf obediently stopped and looked at Lin Wu.
Soon, through the Beast Tamer's telepathic connection, Lin Wu figured out the situation of this Demon Wolf.
After learning that the Dark-type Eco Seed guarded by the Demon Wolf in front of him had been taken away by Lai Ping, Lin Wu raised his head and looked at the Blackwater Pool behind him.
Then, when Lin Wu saw that the black pool was empty, a look of understanding flashed in his eyes.
The ecological seeds have been taken away—but that's irrelevant at the moment; the urgent task is to find help.
He then looked at the Demon Wolf, thought for a moment, and extended an invitation to it.
"Do you need my help?"
"How about we go find that ecological seed together, and you help me fight in return?"
"We can make a temporary agreement."
Lin Wu rubbed his hands together, somewhat excitedly asking the Demon Wolf. The Demon Wolf tilted its head in response.
It seems pretty good.
If the ecological seeds can be recovered, this kind of thing is not unacceptable!
"Aww!"
Then, the Demon Wolf let out a howl. A hint of joy flashed in Lin Wu's eyes, and he immediately signed a temporary contract with the Demon Wolf.
And so, the man and the wolf hit it off immediately and set off side by side in the direction Lai Ping had gone.
Until a certain moment, when Lin Wu realized that she had received help and began to think about her next goal, she suddenly felt that something was not quite right.
Then, he abruptly stopped in his tracks, causing the demon wolf beside him to freeze in place as well.
At that moment, it was as if shattered glass appeared before my eyes, and a look of horrified terror involuntarily appeared on my face.
Inside Lin Wu's beast-taming space, the Time Illusion Insect finally breathed a sigh of relief and stopped the relentless mental suggestions it had been sending since the beginning.
Finally, finally, they managed to subtly guide their beast tamer back to normal from that strange state!
This bug is exhausted!
"babble!"
She called out, while Lin Wu pressed her forehead: "Wait, Ding Xianyou, wait a moment—"
Then, he looked blankly at the Demon Wolf beside him, and they met eyes that were equally bewildered.
"Huh?"
The demon wolf let out a symbolic howl, and Lin Wu read the exact same thoughts in its eyes.
That idiot who just lost his mind, it was me?!
Lin Wu felt a chill run through his body.
Something's wrong—something's very wrong! Something's very wrong with this rookie game!
Why did I become so delusional and obsessed? And even dragged this demonic wolf along with me?
"This is definitely not normal—is someone plotting against me?!"
Suddenly realizing the gravity of the situation, Lin Wu became aware of a serious fact.
It seems like I've encountered something dirty!
The moment this thought surfaced, Lin Wu felt as if her heart had been covered in a layer of lard and was gradually melting away.
All the previous actions now seemed somewhat incomprehensible to Lin Wu.
Yes, how could I possibly do such a thing?
Looking back on her experiences after transmigrating, Lin Wu felt that even if she couldn't be said to be extremely cautious and discreet in everything she did, she certainly hadn't lost her mind.
But recalling how he had been completely oblivious to everything except finding help, Lin Wu still got goosebumps.
It was as if they were bewitched.
I should have cared about the ecological seeds being taken away, but I completely ignored it. It was as if I no longer cared about the ecological seeds at all.
They don't even make preparations beforehand; they only seek help and obtain ecological seeds after acquiring some necessary resources.
In Lin Wu's view, at that time, he could only be described as completely obsessed.
Even the Demon Wolf is one of them!
Damn it, how did we end up agreeing so easily? This is a wild elf! Wild elves would never easily trust a beast tamer!
Most beast tamers would spend countless hours trying to form a contract with a wild spirit, but the Demon Wolf actually signed a temporary contract with them simply because its ecological seed was taken away.
This joke is quite funny; if I told it, I wonder how many beast tamers would laugh and some would go crazy. It's just a pity that it's reality.
"It's almost like, when I have a thought and the idea of doing it, something amplifies that thought and it slowly becomes an obsession—"
"Thus, the obsession was amplified to the point that only the thought of fulfilling this obsession remained in one's mind. As a result, one became completely oblivious to everything else, even disregarding the most basic common sense and logic!"
"This is definitely not normal; there must be something dirty interfering behind the scenes!"
For a moment, Lin Wu was filled with unease. Standing still, she looked at the Time Illusion Insect, and only then did she calm down a little.
"Thanks so much this time! I'll treat you to an extra meal when we get back!"
"babble!"
Shi Huanchong chirped, but still seemed somewhat worried, intending to remind Lin Wu.
Let's put aside the idea of having extra food for now, or maybe we should think about what's going on right now.
Lin Wu shook his head, secretly feeling a sense of lingering fear.
All I can say is that the Insect God is great, no further explanation needed.
If it weren't for the Time-Illusion Bug's ability to use mind suggestion, coupled with the String Puppet, he might have really been doomed.
Coincidentally, just as the goal of finding assistance was achieved, it seemed to be in a period of weakened influence, which allowed the mental suggestion to successfully achieve the counteraction and restore Lin Wu's consciousness.
However, Shi Huanchong is right. The key is what to do next.
"It definitely wasn't the Beast Tamer Association that did it. They wouldn't do something so dirty. This is completely harmful."
"Even if it really is, it's some kind of mole within the organization—someone is definitely causing trouble, and they might even be right there on the field!"
When the thought crossed Lin Wu's mind, a chill ran through him, but then he felt a heavy pressure on his soul.
"What am I supposed to do? Oh right, I need to get Dark-type Ecological Seeds, and then get more Ecological Seeds. I have to leave now—wait a minute, damn it, get your mother's, Time-Phantom Bug, save me!"
The next moment, he shouted without hesitation, and the Time Illusion Insect used its mental suggestion with all its might. After a long time, Lin Wu and the Demon Wolf returned to normal.
But the mental pressure was ever-present, and Lin Wu even felt that it was gradually intensifying!
This feeling only gradually disappeared after Lin Wu hesitated for a moment, took two steps forward, and walked in the direction Lai Ping had left.
Lin Wu felt nothing but numbness.
"How insidious—judging by actions, not intentions?"
"As long as I don't follow the obsession it amplifies, it will keep urging me and even intensify that brainwashing feeling."
"But on the contrary, as long as I do it, at least I can maintain the freedom of my mind—there might be some loopholes."
Thinking of this, Lin Wu let out a soft breath and turned to look at the Demon Wolf beside her.
After hesitating for a moment, he squatted down, looked at the equally solemn-looking Demon Wolf, and spoke softly.
"Although our meeting was a bit silly, it seems we have no choice but to travel together now?"
"Aww."
The Demon Wolf nodded and let out a howl.
He and Lin Wu thought the same thing.
Regardless, we should at least pretend to be brainwashed and take action first.
Who knows what the consequences will be if we continue to be brainwashed? We absolutely cannot let our minds fall into that state.
Moreover, and more importantly, if we continue to resist and insist on going our own way, we might attract the attention of that dirty thing that's causing trouble in the shadows.
Although the existence of the other party could not be confirmed yet, Lin Wu was already somewhat alarmed by what the other party had done so far, and had no choice but to proceed with caution.
Take it slow, dawdle for now, pretend to complete your obsession, and then see if there are any loopholes in this brainwashing.
There must be some kind of countermeasure. It's just that we don't have enough information right now, so Lin Wu plans to observe for a while before making a decision.
"Then, let's cooperate."
Lin Wu said decisively, and the Demon Wolf stretched out its front paws and shook hands with Lin Wu firmly.
"The first task is to find a way to retrieve the evil-type ecological seed, and follow the logic after the brainwashing —"
However, if we only consider the outcome of the action, there is a lot of room for maneuver here.
Lin Wu pondered for a moment, then stood up and said to Momo Wolf, "Can you show me your various abilities? That way, I can better consider my next steps."
"No matter what, we must resist being brainwashed!"
The Demon Wolf nodded, and then, the Demon Wolf's attributes appeared in Lin Wu's mind.
Without hesitation, he turned and walked in the direction Lai Ping had left, saying, "Okay, thank you for your trust. Let's go, we'll set off immediately."
Meanwhile, on the way, he quickly flipped through the information about the Demon Wolf.

"————?"
Lin Wu paused briefly for a moment, realizing something.
It seems like after so much bad news, there's finally some good news!
The game mechanics are so unfair! I ended up with an SSR character as my random teammates!
