After his struggle lasted for a while, Bai Ze finally gave up.
[Confirm to give up on keeping Little Kun as a pet?]
The game notification appeared once again.
Confirm!
As the game notification faded off, a smile was shown on Bai Ze’s face. He strode to the ship’s edge and caressed Little Kun who was looking pity.
“We are friends from now on. Follow me back to the Liuli Coast and I will introduce you to some new friends!”
Little Kun nodded instantly.
As Bai Ze was ready to go back to Beiqi with Little Kun, the game notification reappeared in his mind.
[Little Kun’s feeling toward you has reached a new level of loyalty. You have unlocked a hidden feature. You are allowed to establish a friendship with Little Kun and he would become your personal NPC!]
When Bai Ze saw the second game notification, he was totally dumbfounded. He was still regretting missing a great opportunity then and was hoping for more of a friendship. To his surprise, the contract was provided immediately to him.
Right then, Lu Wu who was behind the scenes was speechless. He thought Bai Ze would choose to keep Little Kun as a pet, but surprisingly, he gave it up.
Lu Wu was very clear that it was indeed a luring offer. After all, no matter how bad Little Kun could be, it would be no lower than Tao Wu’s level. He even had the potential of reaching the Divine Level! This was why Lu Wu had announced the mission to Bai Ze, because once he agreed on that, Little Kun would be digitized, hence leaving a soul mark in the artifact which would become Lu Wu’s power indirectly.
However, Bai Ze’s decision was out of Lu Wu’s expectation. Although this was just a game, it was still able to create huge values, a Divine Beast with limitless potential could possibly be sold at a whopping price. So, Lu Wu truly admired Bai Ze as he chose to give up on all these.
Of course, Lu Wu didn’t want to miss out on Little Kun, thus a contract which was considerably easier to be accepted was offered. Little Kun would still be digitized anyway, but with a difference of reduced control over him.
As Lu Wu kept an eye on Bai Ze, he quietly waited.
Lu Wu actually thought that it was better for Bai Ze to control Little Kun.
This was because Bai Ze was not strong enough on his own and Little Kun was currently just a creature of the Sea Spirit Level, if somehow they encountered a powerful enemy who killed Little Kun before it was digitized, Little Kun would be gone forever as he would not be able to revive like Bai Ze.
On the other hand, as long as he was digitized, Bei Li would be able to revive him even if he died. Since he had chosen to continue his journey with him, digitization was actually a better choice for both of them.
After a moment of pondering, Bai Ze seemed to have come to a conclusion. He then pressed on confirm and a Server Announcement popped up.
[Server Announcement: Congratulations to Player Bai Ze on signing a contract with Tao Wu’s son, Little Kun! Little Kun is officially Bai Ze’s personal NPC now!]
This announcement increased Bai Ze’s popularity in the live streaming channel dramatically. A huge swamp of spectators approached him after getting the news, wanting to know how he was able to achieve that and what Tao Wu’s son looked like.
Live streaming channel:
Go!Pikachu: “Congratulations to the Master on establishing a good relationship! Sprinkle flowers, when are you going to bear monkeys? Looking forward to that. (laughing emoji)”
Roasting_Jade_Hare_While_Hugging_Chang’e: “It has been a long time since I watched your live stream, Master. I can’t believe you are so strong now that you could even tame Tao Wu’s son, sprinkling flowers. (flexed biceps emoji)”
Trainer_XiaoZhi: “Rushing here as soon as I saw the Server Announcement. My mighty Master, you are indeed the online streamer that I prefer the most. When will you tame Tao Wu as well? (laughing emoji)”
Creature_Hunter: “Watched the whole process. Everyone, don’t have to be worried that Tao Wu will take revenge because he was the one who handed his son over to the master. Although I do not understand why he did so, maybe he had had enough of his stupid son. (laughing emoji)”
Crayon_Shinchan replied to Creature_Hunter: “Maybe it’s a wicked deal between the Master and Tao Wu. (laughing emoji)”
Crayon_Shinchan: “Belated blessing from me, I’ll pass in complimenting a master who’s the king of perseverance. (laughing emoji)”
A_Large_Wolfdog replied to Crayon_Shinchan: “Never thought that people like you will have an online streamer of preference, too. (Cha Na overlooking.jpg)”
Crayon_Shinchan replied to A_Large_Wolfdog: “Caressing the dog’s head while laughing on the spot. Why do you always like my touch so much, I feel so helpless. (laughing emoji)”
Raiding_Hunter: “Master, please show us Little Kun’s actual attributes, quick. (hungry look emoji)”
…
Bai Ze was not able to pay attention to his live streaming channel yet as Little Kun had vanished.
In the Artifact Channel, Little Kun was floating amidst the air as the well-prepared Bei Li, who was already in her white coat with spectacles, activated the digitization process.
Due to the fact that Little Kun was still a newborn and his low capability, the digitization process ended within three minutes. After that, Bei Li deleted Little Kun’s memory of being in the artifact before sending it back to Bai Ze.
It was then Bai Ze received the game notification.
[Successfully bound. Little Kun is now officially your dedicated NPC!]
Staring at Little Kun who was confused, Bai Ze activated the analyzing ability.

Attributes: …
…
Reading the lengthy attributes introduction of Little Kun, all the players in the live streaming channel were astounded.
Although Little Kun didn’t have any skills, the five talents were all extremely powerful and could be deemed stronger than the abilities of most players.
It was impossible to say that they were not jealous of him. However, to this online streamer who was the king of perseverance, the players also sent their blessings besides continuously teasing him.
Although he had no inheritance, what he obtained was nothing less than an inheritance.
As he saw Little Kun still looking at him dazedly, Bai Ze poked his head with a finger.
“Little buddy, let’s take care of each other from now on!”
Hearing that, Little Kun was unsure of the meaning but could feel the happiness in Bai Ze’s emotions. So he squinted his eyes and grinned, too, producing a joyful sound as he raised his head.
Ying!
