The King of Beast Trainers

Chapter 52 - 46: The Cat that Hates Dogs_1

"Against Thunder Attribute enemies, it's best to use Emission Attribute skills, otherwise, you're most likely to suffer from recoil damage," Lu Ran recalled this bit of knowledge about Attributes from the Beast Training Manual. From this, he could tell the level of difficulty when dealing with the Thunder Attribute.

Knowing that Emission Attribute skills are too energy-consuming and not easily landed, most extraordinary creatures tend to be close-combat types.

At this time, the Thunder Attribute, with its evident recoil effect, holds a significant advantage.

"If Mr. Husky's role is to provide strong output, then, if I were to contract with the King of Sudden Death in the future, I could train it for recoil tactics mainly focusing on defensive power," Lu Ran muttered to himself. Since this little guy strives for ultimate defense, then just go all-in on defense.

Responsible for taking hits for Mr. Husky while still providing output, and if it managed to paralyze the opponent, it would be like adding a control move.

After my Super Beast Mimicry, my ability to take hits would go off the charts, and I would never have to worry about getting hurt.

"Hey."

"Hey, human ahead."

At this time, Lu Ran had already reached the hallway of the main hall, preparing to head back to the reception room when suddenly, an arrogant female voice reached him, causing him to startle.

He quickly looked around but found no one nearby.

"Look down." The voice came again, and Lu Ran looked down.

He saw a plush-like big white cat, with fur as smooth as silk and an extraordinary demeanor, staring at him with sapphire-like eyes.

Lu Ran: ?

"What! The cat talked!" Lu Ran, silent for two seconds, was shocked looking at the cat.

This cat... did it just speak on its own?! He could confirm that it wasn't Psychic Sensing or anything like that!

What's going on!

Although Lu Ran knew that he would eventually encounter all sorts of extraordinary beings, this was the first time he saw a talking cat, and it was quite novel.

"What's so strange about talking." The plush cat pursed her lips, saying, "Kid, you're the one who found that Necromancer, right?"

Lu Ran: ???

"Who are you." Lu Ran had communicated with various stray cats using telepathy for over two years, but he had never encountered such a bizarre cat.

"Me? I'm an official helper hired by Jinling to catch the Necromancer. It's such a hassle; I have to work even during my vacation," the plush cat said in a disgruntled tone, clearly reluctant.

With this explanation, Lu Ran became even more confused.

Goodness, although Uncle Zhao Chen mentioned that powerful reinforcements would be called in to capture the Necromancer as soon as possible...

He didn't say the reinforcements would be a cat.

Is it the Pet Beast of some powerful Beast Trainer? Why isn't there a Beast Trainer accompanying it, and instead, it's acting alone...

Whatever, it doesn't matter.

"It was me who found out..." Lu Ran replied.

After Lu Ran finished, the strange cat unexpectedly didn't inquire much about the case. Instead, her delicate pink nose wrinkled slightly.

"Your body... the scent of a dog is somewhat strong."

"Did you contract with a canine-type Pet Beast? Moreover, your Beast Training Technique must be the type that obtains its power... such a detestable smell."

"Why not contract with a cute cat," she challenged.

Most likely facing a big shot, Lu Ran dared not rebut, able to sniff out the scent of a dog on him just like that; its nose was certainly as good as a dog's.

"Cough, the cats in our household are rather formidable, and not just anyone can contract with them. For instance, when I was a kid, I saw a black cat pull out a gun from its pocket and shoot dead a mouse. That incident caused quite a stir and even made it on TV. Contracting with one would probably lead to a backlash."

Plush Cat: ?

"You think I haven't watched 'Black Cat Sheriff'?" the plush cat glared at Lu Ran.

"Ah, you've seen it?" Lu Ran gave an awkward smile, finding this cat quite amusing. That was an old flick, and those who've watched it are quite old.

"But speaking of which," the plush cat looked at Lu Ran mockingly, saying, "Your Talent is not bad."

"You're a Superpower Expert, right, with the ability to communicate mentally with other species, am I right?"

Silence, as if it were deathly still.

Lu Ran's expression changed, and his gaze fell on the plush cat.

He... had never shown any special abilities in front of this plush cat, so how did it know?

The Telepathy he acquired two years ago had always been Lu Ran's secret, second only in importance to the Divine Deer Pendant. Although Lu Ran felt that his secret might be revealed someday in the future, he did not expect it to happen so soon.

"Don't be so tense, it's just a little superpower, I know a few guys whose abilities are far more formidable than yours," the Ragdoll cat said with a triumphant smile after seeing Lu Ran get startled.

Now this kid knows the consequences of teasing himself, right?

"You mean, apart from me, there are others with similar superpowers?" Lu Ran didn't deny it but seriously asked.

"Of course, among the thirteen active Beast Trainers in Xia Country, there is a girl who possesses superpowers. At birth, she gained the ability to freely control telekinesis. Even before she became a Beast Trainer, her own strength was already comparable to a grade 10 extraordinary being. Isn't she much more powerful than you?" The Ragdoll cat had an expression that seemed to say, 'you're not that special.'

Lu Ran was dumbfounded.

Superpower Experts... there really were others besides himself!

Moreover, this person seemed even more outrageous, apparently having acquired superpowers decades ago, and they were of the offensive type, too!

Comparable to a grade 10 extraordinary being? That Novice Secret Realm... wasn't just wanton slaughter! Getting a Grade SSS Rating would be like drinking water!

"Is her name Gu Qingyi?" Lu Ran suddenly asked.

A female, a First Generation Beast Trainer... Lu Ran quickly thought of this name.

The Ragdoll cat looked at Lu Ran in surprise and said, "You know about Gu Qingyi, but it seems you don't understand much. The person I'm talking about is someone else, not Gu Qingyi. Although Xiao Qingyi may have stronger research abilities than her, when it comes to combat strength, probably only that old man could easily overpower her in the country."

Not her...

This cat really knew a lot.

Lu Ran wondered, whose Pet Beast could this be? Could it be from one of the First Generation bigwigs?

He looked at the Ragdoll cat and suddenly felt it looked very familiar.

It was as if he had seen it somewhere before.

"Who exactly are you... how do you know so much?" Lu Ran asked. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"I don't mind telling you. Do you know the Neko Maid Cafe? That's my business; it specializes in selling all kinds of information!" The Ragdoll cat yawned and said, "I can tell you're a newbie with no background. If you need information in the future, you can purchase it from my business; it will save you a lot of detours."

Lu Ran was shocked: !!!

He knew he must have seen this cat somewhere before.

Lu Ran remembered now; in the Neko Maid Cafe where Little White Dragon had taken him, there was a cat statue, and that statue bore a striking resemblance to this cat!

"You're the owner of the Neko Maid Cafe? I heard the boss was a Second Generation Beast Trainer!" Lu Ran asked, "Are you her Pet Beast?"

The Ragdoll cat said, "Sort of, but you should get the pecking order right."

What do you mean... you're implying you're the boss, and the Beast Trainer is the underling?

Lu Ran didn't press further because at that moment, a bell rang, and that was when he noticed the Ragdoll cat's tail...

Originally having only one tail, it suddenly sprouted a second one, and this new tail was curling around a mini cellphone.

The next moment.

The phone, controlled by telekinesis, floated up to the ear of the Ragdoll cat, and the additional tail vanished.

"I'm already at the Beast Trainer Tower, and I've seen the discoverer you mentioned. You guys can come over directly," it said.

After finishing the call, it hung up.

"Although it's not a big deal, superpower experts are still rare. Do you want to come with me and broaden your horizons? Have a look at the Necromancer for yourself," the Ragdoll cat looked up at Lu Ran and said, "The soul of a superpower expert like you is fragrant and delicious. Consuming it could help them leap several grades in strength, and it's the Necromancer's favorite treat."

"To ensure you can smoothly get away when targeted in the future, I suggest you familiarize yourself with their combat style first."

"Ah, I, the cat, am just too kind-hearted," the Ragdoll cat indulged in self-praise.

Lu Ran's stomach ached. So he's seen by Necromancers as a nutritious meal? Wait, you bad cat, you're not planning to use me as bait, are you?

He didn't question the veracity of the statement, after all, Little White Dragon had said that the Neko Maid Cafe was the second-largest information center in Xia Country.

"Okay... please lead the way..." Lu Ran immediately agreed, upon hearing this. This cat was definitely no ordinary creature. With it leading the way, the Necromancer shouldn't make waves, and it would be good for him to observe the battle as well.

While they were talking, Zhao Chen hurried over. Seeing that the Ragdoll cat had already made contact with Lu Ran, he quickly said, "Lu Ran, this is Manager Ying, one of the founders of the Neko Maid Cafe, a very powerful extraordinary life, and the outside help we've recruited!"

"I've already met," Lu Ran said.

"Okay, we don't know how to find that Necromancer," Zhao Chen asked the Ragdoll cat.

"Simple," the Ragdoll cat replied, "Take me to the scene of the crime. I'll use my Time Attribute skills to reconstruct the events, and it won't take long to find him."

"After we find him, I'll use my Space Attribute skills to block off the area around him, and he won't be able to fly away, even with wings!" The cat licked its lips.

Zhao Chen and Lu Ran, standing nearby, broke out in a sweat at these words. Good grief, with both Time and Space Attribute skills... No wonder she's Xia Country's biggest Information Dealer; she's indeed skilled.
