Chapter 19

Otherwise, it would mean that within these three years, the group of people who became beast tamers have already grown so powerful that they are beyond the control of the secular world... That probability should be quite low; otherwise, the outside world would have already descended into chaos. Generally speaking, those with more power and influence in the outside world can more easily obtain animals with strong initial species as their pet beasts. Moreover, in the early stages, beast tamers' strength can't possibly compare to technological weapons.

Chapter 11: The Game of Gods

"Actually, for ordinary people like us, joining the official organization is already the best path."

"Most of the beast tamers who have survived these three years are currently working for the authorities. Their beasts are already at high levels, and they possess intelligence, experience, resources, and items that are hard for newcomers like us to access. By joining the official organization, you can rely on the collective and enjoy a share of these benefits."

"Of course, you also have to fulfill some obligations, right?" Ryan Clark didn't believe that pies would just fall from the sky.

"It's not too bad. For example, if there are rogue beast tamers causing trouble among the public, the official beast tamers are responsible for maintaining national stability and security..."

"As far as I know, there are very few mandatory missions, and you can also choose a desk job if you want. Like me, recruiting new members is my own choice, and even so, the salary is pretty good." Little White said with a grin.

"So, are you tempted?"

Forget it, Ryan Clark declined, "I need to think about it."

"Uh, that's fine. You can take your time to learn more."

"So, do you have any other questions?" Little White didn't press the issue, giving Ryan Clark enough autonomy, which left a good impression on Ryan Clark.

However, in Little White's mind, he was shaking his head repeatedly.

It was obvious that Ryan Clark was a student.

He hadn't experienced the harsh realities of society.

Otherwise, he would understand just how rare a secure job like this is.

"I do... but there are so many that I don't even know where to start. Can you tell me what I should know right now?" Ryan Clark asked.

"Sure," Little White said. "As you saw, after passing the newbie trial, if you enter Infinite City, you'll be teleported to the residential area. The house you’re teleported to is your home here—only you can enter it; outsiders can't force their way in."

"Once you leave the residential area, Infinite City has many facilities and is very large. You can explore on your own. But as far as I know, there isn't just one Infinite City—there are many. For example, the Infinite City in Xia Country and those abroad are separate. Even within our own territory, according to administrative regions, there are as many as seven Infinite Cities."

"If you want to go to another Infinite City, you can only use the teleportation array inside Infinite City, which requires spending crystal coins to activate. The facilities in each Infinite City are more or less the same, only some secret realms are different, so there's no real need to force your way to another one."

"In Infinite City, you can meet other beast tamers, as well as shops run by beast tamers. In those shops, you can sell or trade resources you've obtained from secret realms, or use crystal coins to buy resources necessary for cultivating your pet beasts. I suggest you choose shops with official backgrounds to buy and sell resources, to avoid being scammed."

"Also, fighting is prohibited inside Infinite City. If you break the rules, you'll be punished by the patrol beasts in Infinite City. If you want to resolve conflicts, you can go to the arena."

"Right, then there's the issue of secret realms."

"The newbie-type secret realm you just went through is the simplest secret realm, bar none, because there are basically no pet beasts above level 5. Other secret realms aren't like this."

"If a beast tamer wants to improve their strength, unless they're filthy rich or extremely powerful in the real world and can buy all kinds of resources brought out of secret realms by other beast tamers, then honing yourself in secret realms is the fastest way."

"By the way, I should clarify—my point isn't that you can 'level up by killing monsters' in secret realms."

"You probably noticed in the newbie secret realm that by killing monsters, you could increase your pet beast's level experience. But that's actually a special reward mechanism of the newbie trial secret realm. In future secret realms, this kind of benefit will be rare."

"What?" Ryan Clark was stunned. You can't level up by fighting monsters anymore? Wouldn't it be really hard to level up in the future?

"That's right," Little White said with a smile. "But on the other hand, the secret realms we can access, although they're still projections, the resources inside can actually be brought out. Making good use of these resources is also a way to strengthen your pet beast, and it's not necessarily slower than leveling up by fighting monsters."

"So, among the beast tamers who enter secret realms, aside from the very few who aim to clear them, a large portion just go to collect resources. Whether they clear the realm or not doesn't matter—once they've gathered resources, they leave. Of course, the rarer the resource, the harder it is to obtain. Either it's guarded by powerful fierce beasts, or it drops from monsters..."

"One more thing, which is good news. Unlike the newbie trial secret realm, later secret realms can be entered in teams with beast tamers of the same level. This brings up another benefit of joining the official organization: you can systematically team up with beast tamers who specialize in different areas, making it easier to train in secret realms."

Teaming up, huh...

Ryan Clark thought to himself.
