Why isn't what I command considered a beast?

When the Iridescent Key is used to enter into a contract, the Beastmaster only needs to insert the key into the hole in the center of the Spirit Contract Platform, and the platform will randomly summon extraordinary creatures.

Once an extraordinary creature appears, it automatically forms a contract with the Beast Tamer.

There is no possibility of failure.

Of course, there was no chance to regret it.

Once you start, there's no turning back; everything is up to fate.

Mingxi took a deep breath and stepped onto the Spirit Contract Platform. Without giving herself any time to hesitate, she inserted the key in her hand into the central hole.

The next instant, the entire Spirit Pact Platform shone brightly, and various star arrays appeared one after another beneath Mingxi's feet, making her slender figure appear as if she were a goddess standing on nebulae.

For Mingxi, who was born under the national flag and grew up in the spring breeze, everything happening before her eyes seemed so unreal.

It's like a fantasy movie coming to life.

At this moment, no matter how calm and composed Mingxi was, she couldn't control her heartbeat, which was racing at 100 miles per hour.

His clenched palms were already soaked with sweat.

"boom!"

The pillar of light on the Spirit Pact Platform surged to its highest point.

Amidst the interplay of light and shadow, a golden figure appeared. Under the backdrop of the beam of light, the golden light seemed to reflect and shimmer from every angle, almost blinding Mingxi's eyes.

Mingxi was a little confused. Had she summoned a mountain of gold? How could it be so dazzling?

"thunder!"

The piercing cry pierced the air, carrying a strong and menacing aura.

At the same time, Mingxi felt a chill run down her spine, and her body reacted instantly.

He leaped into the air, did a backflip, and landed, rolling to the right as he did so, almost falling off the Spirit Contract Platform.

"Fuck!"

A violent, metallic cracking sound was right in front of me.

Mingxi turned her head and saw that there were dark cutting marks on the spot where she had been standing.

Even though the Spirit Pact Platform was rapidly repairing itself, it was still clear how fierce those attacks had been.

If this happened to her, she would be half-dead, if not killed.

Mother.

What on earth did she summon?

The way he was about to take the dog's head off her neck right from the start was clearly extremely vicious.

"boom!"

A bird-like supernatural creature, about one meter long, covered in golden feathers with red spots, except for three dark purple feathers on its head, suddenly crashed heavily in front of Mingxi, making eye contact with her.

His blood-red agate pupils and ink-black sclera stared directly at her, his initial fierce gaze slowly transforming into one of bewilderment.

"Leilei?"

Because the contract hadn't been completed yet, Mingxi couldn't understand what it was saying, but judging from its wary look around and its doubtful and uncertain tone, it was probably asking where it was or something like that.

Although she had almost been beheaded just now, Mingxi was about to answer, considering that it was about to become her pet.

The Spirit Pact Platform, however, did not give her a chance.

The contract has begun.

The pet space hidden in her sea of ​​consciousness materialized, and a white pyramid, several times smaller than its original size, floated in front of her.

The only illuminated side of the pyramid faced the unnamed bird-like pet not far away. At the same time, the iridescent key that was originally embedded in the Spirit Contract Platform floated up and transformed into a stream of light, rushing into the bird-like pet's body.

The energy bridge has been completed.

They began to tether the extraordinary creature closer to the pyramid.

The unfamiliar pet instinctively tried to resist, but was immediately suppressed by the energy bridge.

"Om."

After a mysterious and profound celestial sound, the contract was successfully completed.

Back in Mingxi's sea of ​​consciousness, on the illuminated wall of the pet space, a golden pet was perched, majestic and menacing.

Huh?

Mingxi was puzzled. Weren't its feathers supposed to be golden with red spots? How did they turn into a light gold color?

She frowned, and soon a possibility came to mind.

With her hands awkwardly forming hand seals, the ethereal pet space reappeared in front of her. In a flash of light, her first pet stumbled out of the space in a disheveled state.

Mingxi looked at it and said, "You really are injured."

Its feathers weren't golden with red spots at all; those red spots were clearly blood droplets. Moreover, it had several penetrating wounds on its body, with blood gushing out.

Even its left claw was torn.

Everything happened in a flash, and because of the beam of light, she couldn't see it clearly.

Judging from the condition of these wounds, it must have been engaged in a fierce battle before being summoned.

So, the moment she appeared, he attacked her without asking why, he must have thought of her as a previous enemy, right?

"thunder?"

The contract has been completed, so Mingxi can now understand its words.

It asked, "Humans, what is going on here?"

His tone was quite domineering, like a CEO.

Mingxi explained in a good-natured manner and briefly introduced herself.

Judging from its size and aura, the pet she contracted was clearly not a beginner-level pet; it must be an intermediate-level pet.

Wow! The 5-star quality of the key wasn't wasted after all.

However, the original owner's limited knowledge did not include any information about the pet in front of him.

It's unclear whether the original owner was a terrible student or if this pet beast had an extraordinary origin.

After hearing Mingxi's explanation, the pet remained silent for a long time, its blood-red agate eyes filled with unknown emotions, as if it were pondering something.

He remained silent for a long time.

It looks like it will last forever.

Mingxi could only interrupt this thinker and tentatively asked, "Your injuries are too severe. Shall I take you to get treatment first?"

The randomly summoned pets are all wild pets, which may come from other star fields or secret realms. Unlike the pets carefully bred in the pet breeding center, wild pets are usually extremely aggressive.

In other words, they are wild and untamed.

Especially since hers might be a mid-level pet, it needs to be treated with even more care.

"thunder."

Looking at the human who had just become its beast tamer, the Thunder Demon Bird sensed the goodwill she was radiating and finally broke its silence, raising its head slightly and responding haughtily.

"Lei Lei." Human, lead the way.

Mingxi: ...

"Your injuries look quite serious. Should we go back to the pet space first?"

Thunderbird shook its head decisively and looked down at its own body.

I was indeed badly injured. If it weren't for the energy boost I received from the contract with this human, I probably would have gone into severe shock long ago.

It thought for a moment, then flapped its still-bleeding wings and took flight with difficulty.

Then Mingxi's left shoulder slumped, and she almost fell over.

Goodness, they're using her as a birdcage.

Don't you know how much you weigh?

And you're covered in blood!

Feeling the warm, damp sweat trickling down her shoulder, Mingxi: ...

This is probably like contracting with an ancestor.

When Mingxi led the Thunder Demon Bird out of the Spirit Contract Room, she immediately received attention from all sides, with almost all the staff looking at her.
