Chapter 13

This sudden change was precisely the reason that stopped Mr. Harris in his tracks.

Golden light, as it drew near, made Mr. Harris feel as if even his bloodline was being suppressed, as if he had encountered a fierce tiger, making his gaze much clearer.

The light grew stronger and stronger. At first, it was still dim, but now, even Ryan Clark began to notice the changes in the pendant he was wearing. As he observed, he couldn’t help but show a confused expression.

Because the Eye of Data, which he had only obtained after entering the secret realm, at this moment... at this moment, it actually captured information about the family heirloom amulet he had brought from the outside world!

【Name】: Divine Deer Broken Antler

【Grade】: Epic

【Description】: The antler of the legendary divine deer, after absorbing the power of a forest rich in natural energy, will nurture healing power.

End of Chapter 8

How could this be possible.

Seeing the change in the pendant, Ryan Clark's mind was full of confusion.

His own family heirloom? He hadn’t even noticed it after coming in... Had it been brought in as well?

But its transformation at this moment was simply astonishing.

Originally, with the appearance of superpowers and black cards, Ryan Clark already felt this world was strange enough—there must be things unknown to people.

And now, discovering that even his own family heirloom had an extraordinary origin made Ryan Clark even more surprised.

He looked puzzled.

He turned his inner gaze to the black contract card floating in his sea of consciousness.

His mind was still a mess.

So, these supernatural powers didn’t just appear in modern times, or recently!

Rather, they have existed since ancient times, who knows how many years ago!

His family heirloom must also be closely related to this series of supernatural powers.

“There are too many things I can’t figure out.”

“Or maybe, one of my ancestors was also chosen by the black card and became a beastmaster? This antler was something they brought out from the secret realm.”

“But if the black card has existed since ancient times, why has there never been any information about it...”

“If it weren’t for that poster, if the black card hadn’t appeared in my hand...”

“In short, just how many people have been chosen by this damned place to become beastmasters?”

“Awoo, awoo!” While Ryan Clark was deep in thought, Mr. Harris, who had been staring at the pendant in shock, snapped out of it, once again feeling the pain of his wounds, and began howling.

Ouch, ouch, ouch...

His cries snapped Ryan Clark out of his thoughts, making him react quickly and say:

“I’ll use this to heal you.” With the healing power from the divine deer, at epic rarity, it had to be better than the common blood-staunching mushrooms found everywhere, right?

This pendant must have been in a sealed state before, having lost its original power, which was why it hadn’t been detected at first.

Now, because they had come to this place and it had absorbed a certain amount of ‘supernatural energy’, it had awakened—this must be the reason.

“Healing power.”

Holding the blood-staunching mushroom, Ryan Clark looked at Mr. Harris and pulled off the pendant.

In that instant, the familiar feeling of holding the contract card returned.

Ryan Clark took a deep breath.

He focused his strong desire to heal Mr. Harris onto them.

The next moment, the divine deer pendant emitted a sparkling golden light!

Immediately after, the golden light enveloped Mr. Harris’s wounds, and before Ryan Clark’s very eyes, an incredible scene unfolded.

The wounds on Mr. Harris’s body, which had been torn open, now... began to heal rapidly.

In just a few seconds, the bloody injuries were completely restored, not even leaving a scar.

Except for a few bald patches where some fur was missing, it was an almost perfect recovery!

Mr. Harris even felt his body warm, as if nourished by plants and trees.

“Awuu!” In just an instant, Mr. Harris was stunned again, not understanding what had happened.

As for Ryan Clark, his expression was full of joy.

He quickly gave Mr. Harris’s injured area a good rub and said, “You’ve gone bald, but you’ve also gotten stronger, and your skin and flesh are much tougher now!”

“Woof!” Mr. Harris was stunned, lowered his head to look at his body with some heartache, but then immediately looked eagerly at the antler in Ryan Clark’s hand.

“Although I don’t know what’s going on, it seems like we’re invincible now.” Ryan Clark smiled.

Forget it, as for the heirloom, he’d think about it more after returning.

“Woof woof!!” Mr. Harris’s eyes flashed like spotlights, nodding frantically. With this, never mind five cats—even fifty, he’d dare to fight them all!

This thing is just too powerful. With it, as long as you’re not killed instantly, what injury can’t be healed?

“Don’t get carried away.” Ryan Clark said, “We can’t pin all our hopes on the protection of our ancestors, but with this unexpected development... the plan will have to change again.”

He gripped the pendant tightly, took a deep breath, and recalled his mother’s face in his mind.

Although he didn’t know what was going on with the divine deer pendant, Ryan Clark understood that this was definitely their greatest support at the moment. Their safety in this trial secret realm... the feasibility of their leveling-up plan, had once again increased dramatically.

……

Because he had obtained an epic item, Ryan Clark felt that if he kept playing it safe, he’d be letting down the family heirloom left by his ancestors.
