Astral Pet Store Chapter 701

Chapter 701 - Invasion. Going to War!

Su Ping also summoned the Little Skeleton, the Dark Dragon Hound, and the Purple Python. It would be great if they could gain some new talent by staying in the upgraded nursing pens.

Regular consumers would have to pay a hundred thousand astral coins per hour; leaving the nursing pens vacant would be a waste of great resources. Afterward, Su Ping walked around the store. He saw the new virtual battle gym for battle pets. The place was a hall with quite the futuristic style; it had many devices inside. The customers could pick beasts of different types by configuring those devices, enter the information of their battle pets and make the two sides battle virtually. The customers would then have the opportunity to find weak points in their battle pets and enhance their own command skills. Su Ping felt that it had to be the most advanced battle gym on the Blue Planet. However, no one at this time would be interested in using the place, since the wild beasts would arrive at any time.

That would have to wait.

Su Ping left that room. As for the chance of relocating the store, it would be a function for a later use.

Su Ping was quite happy about the fact that the dummy trainer could finally handle advanced-rank battle pets in bulk. He would be able to train pets faster in the future.

He could assign the job to the dummy trainer as long as it wasn’t the professional package. However, Su Ping wasn’t intending on training any battle pets at the moment. The battle pet warriors would lose their minds if the battle pets were stuck in training when the beasts finally attacked.

At the same time.

Far away to the west of the continent, the ocean suddenly began to tumble when the first morning light reached the edge of the continent. There was no wind that day. However, a hundreds of meters tall tide was formed; many ferocious figures were swimming inside.

Those ocean beasts were moving along with the tide.

Behind the tide was a dense swarm of beasts. All of them seemed quite cheerful.

In the meantime, an island was moving toward the north of the continent. That mobile piece of land was filled to the brim. Upon a closer look, one would see that it was full of beasts. The island stopped by the edge of the continent. The beasts received their orders; they happily jumped off the island and dashed onto the mainland. The island suddenly turned around and went back as soon as the beasts were gone.

If people had an aerial view of the situation, they would have seen dozens of thick limbs below water.

It was a deserted plain. Suddenly, the ground began to tremble. There came a beast with a paw that could easily flatten a tank; it was a lion with silver fur.

The beast had three crooked horns on top of its head and its eyes were golden. Quite the regal beast. “So, this is the last lair of the puny things.” “Finally, it is time that we claim a world as our own!”

A snake that was hundreds of meters long moved closer. Its scales were flickering in a faint, golden glow under the sun. The grains on the snake’s scales formed many human faces that seemed to be screaming. The creature was also speaking in the human language.

Boom-!

The ground trembled behind the two monsters and dust blotted the sky. Many more beasts were approaching

Beep, beep, beep! Doo, doo, doo!! Some construction pets were still working with humans to reinforce the two walls. The alarm sounded at the command center.

The sound was harsh to the ears.

Meanwhile, the alarms across all the base cities were also activated.

All the people who had been busy inside the defense line stopped what they were doing. They gazed into the distance.

The beasts were coming.

The final battle would begin! The general public who were still inside their homes approached their windows with worry. There were no more shelters. If humans were unable to win the battle, the Blue Planet would become a planet dominated by beasts! People were still calm at the moment. They stayed in their homes, waiting for the final verdict. Some people crashed under the stress. They hurt other people and vandalized public facilities. Battle pet warriors asked those people to go outside the walls. Some of such people were executed on the spot! There were bloodstains left behind by mobs creating troubles on the streets of all the base cities, in both the uptown and the shantytown areas.

Vehicles were moving fast on the streets. The general public was restricted by curfew, which left the streets empty. All the combat personnel started to hurry to their rally points as soon as the alarm sounded.

The vehicles carried battle pet warriors to their destinations.

Some of the battle pet warriors were still teenagers. They still had childlike appearances and they were afraid of the upcoming battle, the unknown.

People watched with troubled minds as the vehicles drove by. They started to pray.

“They’re coming!” “Sir, Sentinel Station 003 at the south detected a large number of beasts, identified as a Level 5 strike!” “Sir, Sentinel Station 029 at the north detected a large number of beasts with 28 beast kings, identified as a Level 8 beast strike!”

“Sir…”

The intelligence staff were issuing reports in a hurry, moving all around the station. They relayed all the information to the command center.

The ratings of the strike had been recently modified

In the past, the scales were identified as small, middle, and large. But then the ratings were expanded to consider nine levels. A level 9 beast strike would have fifty beast kings! As for a level 10 beast strike… That would mean the number of beast kings had gone over a hundred. It would be a clear indicator that the main force of wild beasts was underway! Gu Siping was at the command center with two legendary battle pet warriors accompanying him. The others present were the best military advisers who hailed from different base cities. Some legendary battle pet warriors were good at combat but not in strategy; the experts had to take care of the professional job. “From which side will they arrive first?” Gu Siping was overwhelmed by the information. He had barely finished hearing the first message when the next came; he had little time to process the information.

There were other pieces of information as well.

For example, some Sentinel Stations had been destroyed and the battle pet warriors had gone missing. In Addition to that, some place’s micro communication stations had been destroyed. They could no longer hear back from them.

The beasts… were there. They had arrived on the continent! Gu Siping wore a grave face. He was nervous. He didn’t know when their ace card would come into play.

He had no idea.

However, once the alarm went off, he immediately sent legendary battle pet warriors he trusted back to the Tower. “It should be… the south!” A military adviser held his smart laptop in his hands. He was calculating the trajectory of the wild beasts and their speed. “There are seven groups of beasts coming from the south. The first group is at level 6. There are nine beast kings!” “The ETA of the first group is… 53 minutes!” “Sir, they may stop before they get here, to wait for the other groups so they can strike together. If so…” The military advisers talked quickly and perspired out of nervousness. Gu Siping was worried about that as well. He could find ways to stop them if the beasts moved in separate groups. However, the situation would be hopeless if the beasts stayed together and launched a group strike! It was evident that the beasts were coming with a plan. That was to say, they would indeed not attack separately because they knew this wouldn’t work. They would strike together! Gu Siping opened up the group chat of legendary battle pet warriors. “I need people to stop the beasts in the south. Who wants to go? “There are 9 beast kings in the first group coming from the south. One of the nine is at the Void State. I need them dealt with as soon as possible!” All the legendary battle pet warriors saw the message. All of them had been on alert and checking their group chat since the alarm sounded; they had been waiting for orders. “Let me. I will handle the south!” Xiang Fengran said first. Almost at the same time, Ye Wuxiu’s message also arrived. “I will go. Where are they?”

“Me!”

“I will!”

“Let me…”

The ones who answered the call were mostly those from the Deep Caves. Those from the Tower also started typing, but Gu Siping made his choice before they could finish their messages. “I will have Brother Xiang take care of this. Pick three at the Ocean State to go with you.” Xiang Fengran said, “No problem. I will finish them all!” He named three Ocean State Warriors, Mo from Ye Wuxiu’s team and two others from Jing Shen’s team. “I’ll be borrowing your team members. I’ll bring them back to you later!” Xiang Fengran added a smiling emoji. Ye Wuxiu replied, “Don’t mention it. Take

care.”

“Don’t worry.” The two replied. Xiang Fengran named a place for them to meet and added, “I’ll try my best to bring them back with me!”

“Captain Xiang, we don’t need you to bring us back. We can do that ourselves!”

“Right, Captain Xiang, are you belittling us? You’ll be taking care of the Void State beast king and we’ll handle the rest!” Jing Shen added, “They know what they’re doing. Black Lunatic, don’t worry; do whatever you need to do!” Xiang Fengran took a deep breath. He came out from the Deep Caves with some team members but they had been murdered by the Thousand-eyed Demon Beast when he was in the Dragon Swamp Continent. He had been able to make it out alive thanks to his team members’ sacrifice.

He was currently a person without a following: “I see. I won’t worry about them then!” Xiang Fengran joked. Ye Wuxiu said, “Who needs you to worry about them? Our Mo is very good, don’t underestimate him; you should take care of yourself. Do try to not slow them down! I don’t want to see them get into trouble because you can’t finish that Void State thing!”

Xiang Fengran smiled. He didn’t add a reply to that.

“Be careful,” Ye Wuxiu said to Mo who was with him at the moment. Mo had lived for hundreds of years. He smiled from ear to ear at Ye Wuxiu. “Don’t worry, Cap. I will come back!” “Shut it. Don’t jinx it!”

Once Xiang Fengran left with his team, Gu Siping went ahead and appointed the second team.

Someone needed to go to the east side!

“I’ll go!” Xue Yunzhen was the first to reply. “Eight beast kings right? I’ll be enough to take care of them if none of them is at the Void State.”

Ye Wuxiu cautioned her, “Be careful. Don’t underestimate our enemies. I’ve noticed that the current devices aren’t that accurate when it comes to Void State creatures. Some of the beast kings may be hiding their strength and the devices won’t pick that up.” “All right, all right, don’t sweat it. I’ll escape if I run into a group of Void State beasts. I’m also not afraid to fight if I do chance a lone Void State beast, not with the battle pet that Mr. Su sold to me!” Xue Yunzhen didn’t seem to be worried.

No one else said anything. They knew that every single one of them would enter the battleground soon. It was a critical battle for the Blue Planet. All of them would die if they were unable to defeat the beasts!

So… there was no need to comfort anyone. No need!

Ye Wuxiu and everyone else were prepared to sacrifice themselves. They were quite composed at the moment. Also, seeing them striving to be the first to go to the frontline surprised those from the Tower. These people are a bunch of lunatics! There weren’t enough legendary battle pet warriors.

Even so… they would still try to delay their involvement!

Inside the store.

Su Ping was following the chat group messages. He didn’t say anything. He didn’t go this time; Ye Wuxiu and the others could take care of those groups of beasts.

Tang Ruyan and Su Lingyue were also at the store; they had seen the conversation. The two girls remained quiet. In times of war, there would always be a group of heroes that would boldly act without a care for personal sacrifice! Tang Ruyan looked at Su Lingyue. The former was tapping her arm with one finger; that was what she would do when nervous. Scared, Tang Ruyan asked, “Do you think we can make it this time?” Su Lingyue looked at Tang Ruyan and then at Su Ping. Su Lingyue shook her head. “Thinking about this is pointless at this moment.” Tang Ruyan didn’t expect that Su Lingyue would offer such a response. Tang Ruyan gazed at the latter and nodded, “You’re right.” “That being said, I still hope… we can survive.” Su Lingyue bit her lips.

Tang Ruyan replied with silence.

At the same time, back in the command center, Gu Siping was going through the information he was receiving. He was talking with the military advisers to find the best solution. “Why would those beasts come from different regions of the continent? They could certainly crush us if they would have simply concentrated their forces at the east or the west.”

Some military advisers voiced their questions.

An old adviser said with rage and coldness, “Those bastards… are trying to catch the whole lot of us in one fell swoop!” The other advisers turned pale at the thought. The beasts were coming from all sides just to surround them? They didn’t want to spare any lives. They wanted to kill all humans! How cruel!

The adviser felt the true heartlessness of the wild beasts.

The beasts wanted humans to go extinct! “Damn those bastards!” one of the advisers said in anger. The old adviser pulled a long face and said in a low voice, “Let’s not lose our minds to anger. A cool head is what we need.”

The other advisers came back to their senses. They looked at the old adviser to express their respect and appreciation. They focused their minds back on the information and the map. “They will have to pay the price…” Gu Siping said, “They’re coming from different sides. We will then have a chance to crush them one after the other!” “Oh hell, the second group of beasts coming from the east is going to merge with the first group. The appointed legendary warrior is going to be in danger!” an adviser cautioned. Gu Siping looked at the map and opened the group conversation again. “We need reinforcements in the east. Who wants to go? The second group of beasts is going to meet the first group. We need at least two Void State warriors!”

“Me!” Ye Wuxiu shouted first. Jing Shen followed closely, “I will go!” “Okay. You two, do hurry,” Gu Siping said. The adviser cried out in alarm, “The first group in the north has stopped… They’re merging with the second group. They’re going to strike!” “They’re waiting for more! Damn it!” “We’re talking about a level 9 strike if we look at the north side!”

The advisers looked pale.

Gu Siping’s hands were sweating. A level 9 strike! That was the highest level they had. Gu Siping knew how many legendary battle pet warriors they had; all of them would have to head out in order to stop a level 9 strike! After all, all the captains from the Deep Caves were leaving. Only a few of those who had yet to be dispatched were at the Void State.

“Sir, do we need blocking maneuvers in the north?”

It was Li Yuanfeng who added the message. “I can go if you need more people,” the bald legend said. He had once worked for Xue Yunzhen and was at the peak of the Ocean State, inching close to the Void State. After some hesitation, Gu Siping said, “The north side has the largest group of beasts. The current assessment is that the strike is at level 9. I need all of you to go and finish the beasts before the third group merges with the first two! Otherwise, we’ll have to withdraw!” “Based on the current information, you have 40 minutes to finish the beasts!”

The warriors from the Tower had yet to say a thing; they were all ghastly pale. A level 9 strike?! That was to say, there were more than fifty beast kings!

Some of them were bound to be at the Void State. Maybe… there was one at the Fate State!

After all, the Tower Master had said before that there should be twenty or so Fate State beast kings around the world. It was about time one of them came out to lead the strike! Suddenly, a man said, “I will handle the north side.”

It was Su Ping He then continued, “I will go to the north side. The rest can go and support the other three sides. Be careful.”

Li Yuanfeng was the first to disagree, “Brother Su, are you sure? What if you find Fate State beasts? And considering the number of beasts…”

“Right. Don’t worry about us. This is a level 9 strike and it must be finished within forty minutes. It will take you some time to go there from where you are in Longjiang!” “Take me. I can help!”

“And me!”

They all shouted to help. Su Ping took a deep breath and said, “Don’t argue with me. I myself will be enough for the north side. I don’t care if they have one group or ten groups. I will end them all!” His words were enough to enlighten the benighted. End them all?

He would stay till all the beasts were killed?!

He would do this all by himself? Tang Ruyan and Su Lingyue were frightened. Su Ping was losing his mind! How could he go and deal with those beasts by himself?!

That was almost one-fourth of all the wild beasts in the world!

No one could do this!

“Ping…” Fearful, Su Lingyue wanted to stop Su Ping, but he motioned her to stop talking. “It’s settled. Tell me where to go,” Su Ping said.

Gu Siping didn’t expect Su Ping’s heroic stance!

The other advisers looked at each other, clearly stunned.

“Fine. I will let you handle it!” Gu Siping said, “Escape if it’s too difficult!” “Got it!”

Su Ping put the phone back in his pocket.

Roar!

Roar!!

The store was full of violent energy. The Inferno Dragon, the Dark Dragon Hound, and the Purple Python came out from their nursing pens. The Little Skeleton was quieter. However, while standing between the Inferno Dragon and the Dark Dragon Hound, the Little Skeleton was like their king! “Come to battle… with me!” Su Ping said. The Dark Dragon Hound barked; it wasn’t a bark of excitement, but of courage and killing intent!

Having stayed with Su Ping for such a long time, his battle pets knew full well how important the battle would be!

“Stay in the base city and do not leave the store for any reason,” Su Ping said to Su Lingyue. Her eyes were wet. He walked to where she was and tenderly patted her head.

“Be a good girl. I will come back.”

“Promise me that you will!” Su Lingyue looked at him. She was bursting into tears.

Su Ping smiled at her. “Of course. But don’t run away before I come back. Don’t make me go look for you again.” Su Lingyue remembered her plight while trapped in the Corridor; her nails dug into her palms while she lowered her head. “I will wait for you to come back. If you don’t, I’ll stay here all the time until you do!” Su Ping gazed at her and nodded. “Take care of my sister,” Su Ping said to Tang Ruyan. Tang Ruyan’s eyes were also misty. She bit her lips and remained silent.

“Stay inside the store if the beasts come to Longjiang. Joanna will protect you,” Su Ping said to the two. He then turned to Joanna, “I will entrust you with taking care of them.”

Joanna nodded.

What’s not to love about my new life after transmigrating into a Pet-centered world? There are mighty creatures that come in all shapes and sizes. They can either be cuddly companions, helpers in your daily life, daring scouts or strong fighters. Or all of the above. Not bad, huh? I have a family, but the fact is completely overshadowed by my younger sister. She thoroughly hates my guts, and she makes sure that I know this. Every. Single. Day. Did I mention that she’s disgustingly talented while I am a bottom feeder? A terribly handsome one at that. I have free rein to run the family business on my own. A small and quaint Pet Store. It should have been great if not for the fact that the previous owner of this body was born with ZERO affinity to handle Astral Pets… It wouldn’t be a proper transmigration without a gimmick or a system to pave my road to greatness, don’t you think? I have one, but I don’t know if I would be better off without it…
