The system was set three years in advance, but the universal deities still hadn't arrived.

Chapter 89 Roaring Thunder Bear - Volibear
"The Eye of Peeping".

This is the remains of a Titanoboa that died in the Cataclysm.

This is a cat that died there.

Zeng Shen threw down one of his spying eyes at each of the pythons inside.

Only the red-striped python with patches of red snake scales emerged, displaying a virtual panel that only it could see.

[Beast-type creature: Titan Blood Serpent King]

[Qualification: Lord (Common, Elite, Lord, King, Legendary, Epic, Mythical)]

[Tier 3: 0/20000]

[Name: Not yet chosen.]

[Skill: Not yet mastered.]

[None of the believers]

[Mood: Peaceful]

[Analysis: A slow-growing yet terrifyingly powerful mutated Titan Python-type creature. As its divine energy increases, its size will continue to grow, making it an excellent mount for cultivating giant beast units. Only one in ten thousand mutated beasts might possess the potential to become a lord.]

Looking at the panel of the red-striped python, Zeng Shen immediately perked up.

Previously, every time he passed by this zoo, the system would warn him that many terrifying beasts were lurking there.

Unexpectedly, this giant python turned out to be one of the terrifying beasts, and a future Titan Python, a mutated Titan Blood Python King.

What surprised him even more was that the explanation was also very straightforward and helpful.

This will be a good mount for future development of giant beast units.

Think of this.

Zeng Shen used a beast taming spell on the Titan Blood Serpent King and threw it over.

[Domestication failed.]

Zeng Shen was used to failing. Even beasts with lord-level potential couldn't be tamed in an instant with this low-level beast taming technique.

So he continued to throw beast-taming spells at the red-striped python one after another.

After casting about twenty or so Beast Taming spells, a warm notification sound finally rang out.

[Congratulations, host! You have successfully tamed the beast and obtained the pet Titan Blood Serpent King. Your Pan-Believer count has increased by 1, and your Survival Points have increased by 10.]

The 'Titan Blood Serpent King', having been successfully tamed, woke up from its slumber immediately.

It flicked its tongue, looked around, and finally slowly moved toward Zeng Shen in front of the glass, its blood-red eyes shining as it gazed at him.

Zeng Shen placed his hand on the glass window and made a stroking motion.

The red-striped python was incredibly intelligent. It lowered its head slightly and brought its head close to Zeng Shen's palm on the glass window, as if it were truly a well-behaved pet being stroked by him.

soon.

Zeng Shen withdrew his hand, while the red-striped python raised its head, its eyes showing affection and a desire to leave.

"Stay here and wait a year, and your master will grant you your freedom."

Zeng Shen said this and headed towards the next animal pen area.

The red-striped python saw that its owner was about to leave.

It moved its huge snake body along the glass window sill, following him until it could no longer see him. Then it curled up by the window, its blood-red snake eyes still fixed on the direction Zeng Shen had left in.

After leaving the python area, Zeng Shen asked Xiao Ai, who was standing beside him, "Xiao Ai, after you took over this zoo and cleaned up a lot of the zookeepers, what are you going to do with these animals?"

“Master, when the cataclysm occurs, these animals will all turn into monsters, and naturally they will need to be eliminated. So my initial plan was to sell these animals at low prices to zoos in several nearby cities.”

Xiao Ai paused for a moment, then continued:

"But it seems the owner wants some animals to stay, so I plan to wait until the owner has chosen which animals to keep before moving the rest away."

Zeng Shen laughed and said, "Xiao Ai really understands her master. We can keep the red-striped python from earlier, but we don't need to keep the rest of the pythons or the sika deer in the sika deer area."

“Yes, Master,” Xiao Ai said, then pointed to a brown bear enclosure in front of her and said, “Master, there is an old brown bear in here. Should we keep it?”

"want."

Zeng Shen didn't think much of it before speaking, since he had just gotten close to the area when he heard the system notification.

Before he even reached the animal pen, he casually tossed out a Spying Eye.

[Lightning-type creature: Roaring Thunder Bear]

[Qualification: King-level (Common, Elite, Lord, King-level, Legendary, Epic, Mythical)] [Tier 3: 0/30000]

[Name: Not yet chosen.]

[Skill: Not yet mastered.]

[None of the believers]

[Mood: Uneasy]

[Analysis: Roaring and giving birth to new life amidst thunder and storms, the Roaring Thunder Bear is a rare and terrifying mutated behemoth of the lightning element. As the divine energy within its body continues to increase, its size will also grow larger, and the accumulated lightning energy will increase daily. It is an extremely high-quality mount for cultivating behemoth troops. Only one in tens of millions of Roaring Bears has the potential to become a king-level mutated Roaring Bear.]

Looking at the old brown bear's qualifications and the introduction, Zeng Shen couldn't help but gasp.

My darling.

The zoo must have given him quite a surprise.

This old brown bear will also mutate in the future.

Moreover, it possesses a rare King-level aptitude; only one in tens of millions of Roaring Giant Bears appears—the Roaring Thunder Giant Bear!

Immediately, Zeng Shen ran towards the brown bear pen with immense joy, eager to tame it as soon as possible.

In the brown bear enclosure.

The old brown bear lay lazily under the tree, the morning sunlight shining through the leaves onto its golden, fluffy, and dense fur, making it appear shiny.

However, the ring of white hair around his neck made him appear somewhat old and frail, like an elderly person with white hair.

When Zeng Shen and the others leaned against the animal pen and looked down at the old brown bear...

The old brown bear twitched its round ears, slowly and weakly opened its huge eyes, looked at them, and then used its paws to support its huge and heavy body, stood up with difficulty, and began to twist its huge bear rump from side to side, while stretching out its two forelegs and clapping its paws one after another.

"Why does it start dancing as soon as we get close? It doesn't look old at all, it's quite energetic," Zeng Shen said with a cheerful smile.

Xiao Ai took out her phone, snapped a picture of it, and sighed as she explained, "Master, this old brown bear is 25 years old this year. Its keepers named it the Dancing Bear. Because it was trained by its keepers since it was a cub, whenever tourists approach, it has to stand up, keep wiggling its butt, and clap its paws to let the tourists take pictures. Only then will it get food at night; otherwise, it will go hungry or be whipped. It treats us like tourists, waiting for us to be photographed before it dares to lie down and rest."

"what"

Zeng Shen's smile vanished, and he looked at the old bear.

Just as Xiao Ai said.

Only after Xiao Ai finished taking the photos did the old brown bear dare to put its forelegs down, clumsily lay down under the tree, its mouth slightly open, and panted heavily.

He couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.

Then, one after another, taming techniques were silently thrown over, about fifty in total, until a notification sounded that the beast had been successfully tamed.

[Congratulations, host! Taming successful! You have obtained the pet Roaring Thunder Bear, and your general followers have increased by 1. Congratulations!]

The old brown bear, which had been panting heavily, suddenly opened its eyes wide after being successfully tamed by Zeng Shen, and then let out a roar that sounded like a question mark as it looked at him outside the enclosure.

After that, it struggled to its feet again, panting heavily, and frantically wiggled its bear rear end, its huge paws slapping loudly, as if trying to please its new owner.

Watching the old brown bear start dancing again, Zeng Shen saw numbness, fear, and worry in its huge eyes.

The unique surprise and clarity that comes when no other animal becomes your tamer.

He knew that the old brown bear had been domesticated for too long and was too old.

It has long since lost its self and vitality.

The reason why the old bear is so eager to please itself is perhaps because it is worried that it will go hungry in its old age, be whipped suddenly, or even be slaughtered after changing owners.

Think of this.

As Zeng Shen looked at this Roaring Thunder Bear, one of only a few among the millions of Roaring Giant Bears in the future, a sense of sorrow for a hero's twilight welled up in his chest.

He cupped his hands around his mouth and shouted, "Stop, you silly bear! Your master orders you to stop. I know what you're worried about. Don't worry, you won't have to please anyone anymore. You'll have food and meat every day, no one will hit you, and no one will force you to get up and work."

"From this moment on, you will have a new name, Volibear."

"One year from now, you will leave this place with a brand new hero identity, and you will fight alongside your master to conquer the heavens and make this world shine with your thunderous roar—Voliber."

"Roar."

Upon hearing Zeng Shen's words, the old brown bear stopped its labored writhing and then slammed its paws into its chest, letting out a deafening roar.

at this moment.

It seemed to have broken free of its cage and shackles, and was reborn. Then, it landed on all fours, and its huge bear eyes welled up with tears as it stared intently at its master outside the enclosure. Then, a faint light began to emanate from its body.

[Congratulations, host! The Roaring Thunder Bear has sensed your sincerity and become your fervent follower. Faith +1000.]
