[You enter the Black Cat Magic Pet Shop. 】
[Black Cat Magic Pet is one of only four familiar shops on Yotsuba Street, selling a variety of magical pets. 】
[The store manager is a slightly obese middle-aged man with a black cat following him. When he sees your appearance, he also runs to greet you immediately. 】
[You visited this pet store under the guidance of the store manager. 】
[This is a quite crowded store, filled with pet cages and filled with all kinds of animal noises. 】
[During the tour, you saw cats of various colors, a huge purple toad, a turtle with gems on its back, an orange snail, a fat rabbit wearing a top hat, a cage of noisy crows, and a cream-colored fur ball. beast……】
Just like the previous owl shop, the owner showed him around as soon as he entered the shop. A series of animal texts appeared in the game, with a total of more than seventy kinds.
Muyou patiently clicked on each one to check.
The main pet of this store should be cats. There are the most varieties of cats, including lucky black cats, white charm cats, Cheshire cats, cat nives... There are more than ten kinds in total, accounting for one-fifth of the total number of pets in the store. one.
In addition, Mu You also found the same variety of Coke in the list: it is called Phantom Cat, which comes in silver tabby and golden tabby. It is a rare breed of cat and one of the most expensive civet cats in this store. Priced at 798 years of life!
"This thing is actually worth eight hundred years?"
Mu You looked at the fat cat lying on the bed in the distance with some disbelief, sticking out his tongue and constantly pulling at the phone with one paw.
In addition to cats, the remaining varieties of familiars in this store are quite diverse, such as fortune tellers, thorns, deer, burrowing rats, fire crabs, etc. There are all kinds of flying insects and animals, and each pet has its own unique characteristics. Ability.
This kind of store full of magical animals is more in line with Muyou's expectation of a pet store.
However, the items sold in this store slightly conflicted with his needs. Many of them were animals that were only loyal to their owners but aggressive towards outsiders.
In the wizarding world where monsters are everywhere and people often need to go out on adventures, this kind of aggressive familiar will certainly work, but in a relatively peaceful environment like the earth, it is difficult to sell it as a domestic pet.
Of course, there are many varieties of tame pets. Muyou plans to buy some suitable pets and bring them back the next time he comes in to enrich the variety of pets in the store.
[After taking you to see all the pets, the fat shop owner carefully asked you, what kind of familiar do you need? 】
A text box pops up below, where you can enter the animal you need.
But Mu You is not here to buy animals, but to learn the experience of opening a magic pet shop.
He entered 'pet sterilization means' in the text box and sent.
[As a fellow pet owner, you asked the shop owner for advice on how to sterilize magical pets. 】
The value of magic pets and ordinary pets is very different. Forget about the pets left on display in the store. Most of the pets sold need to be sterilized. For example, the pets for sale in this store are basically Had a sterilization treatment.
Mu You estimated that these alien pet shops must have specialized sterilization methods, and it was impossible to just find a doctor to perform the surgery.

[This text adventure game is absolutely poisonous] []
[The fat shop owner heard that you were also a fellow pet seller, and his enthusiasm for you instantly dropped by 90%. 】
[The other party told you that the method of sterilization is a secret in the pet industry and will not be spread to outsiders. If you are not going to take care of his business, please leave as soon as possible, he will still entertain other customers. 】
Sure enough, he didn't tell him directly, and Mu You wasn't surprised. He picked something out of his backpack.
[You take out some silver-white broken eggshells from your backpack and place them on the front desk. 】
Silver owls that can be specially raised by people in white will definitely not be commonplace.
Mu You had seen it just now. There were many owls for sale in this store, but there was no silver owl. It can be seen that the rare owl, the silver owl, is also monopolized.
[The fat shop owner is also a person who knows the goods, and he immediately recognized that it was the eggshell of a silver owl, and it was a discarded eggshell that failed to hatch. 】
[The fat shop owner looks at you in disbelief and asks you why you have so many silver owl eggshells. Do you have a shipping channel for silver owl? 】
[You nodded and acknowledged this. The fat shopkeeper hurriedly grabbed you, asked you to sit down, and took out a short stick. This was his secret to sterilization. 】
[You can see it clearly, it is a rare item that emits blue light: the release of the familiar. 】
[Emancipation of the familiar: Input magic power, and the familiar can painlessly eradicate the fertility of the demon or the ability of the plant to bear children, provided that the familiar or the plant does not resist or cannot resist. Note: This effect cannot be restored by other magic or props, please think carefully before using it. 】
It turns out there are special props...
Mu You now understood that rare props were not that precious at all. They only had a lifespan of a thousand years. They were only held by a small number of people and ordinary people had no chance to see them.
[The shipment volume of silver owls is very small, and the supply of goods in the entire imperial capital is monopolized by the Gugu Owl store next door. If this store can obtain the supply of silver owls, it can stand out among the four familiar shops and even have a chance. Steal customers from the Hooters shop next door. 】
[The fat shopkeeper brought you tea and expressed his willingness to use this sterilization tool passed down from generation to generation in the family in exchange for 50 silver owl eggs. your choice……】
[Conclude a deal], [Continue negotiating], [Turn around and leave].
"Turn around and leave."
[After hearing the fat shop owner’s request, you suddenly stood up and wanted to leave the shop, muttering that you wanted to go check out the remaining three pet shops. 】
[The fat shopkeeper pulled you back dumbfounded, and quickly put forward a new condition: this 'Familiar's Liberation' will be exchanged for Silver Owl's purchase channels, and the profits will be split 50-50. your choice……】
"Turn around and leave."
[You left without saying a word again. The fat shopkeeper pulled you back with sweat on his face and carefully said that he just made a mistake and the profit would be divided into 40 and 60. your choice……】
"Turn around and leave."
[The fat shopkeeper pulls you back without tears. Should we be content with a 30-70 split? Selling silver owls requires paying high luxury taxes and publicity expenses. This ratio is already a slight loss for him, and it is purely a loss-making profit. 】
"Turn around and leave."
[You still chose to turn around and leave. This time the fat shop owner sighed with a look of disappointment on his face. He didn't try to keep you around anymore and let you leave the shop. 】

"Backtracking."
Seeing that the performance was over, Mu You went back in time according to the watch and returned to the previous option.
"Continue to discuss."
[You showed some interest in the shop owner’s proposal of a 30/70 split, but still had some hesitation. 】
[The fat shop owner quickly asked if you have any other needs. If you tell us, we can discuss it. 】
A new text box popped up, and Muyou entered the conditions in it.
[You expressed your wish to buy some unneutered familiars at a low price in the store. 】
[The shop owner hesitated for a long time, and finally nodded and said yes, but he needs you to agree to three conditions. 】
[First, you cannot open a pet shop within the imperial capital. 】
[Second, your silver owl supply must not be provided to other stores within the imperial capital. 】
[Third, you need to provide at least thirty silver owls to his shop every month. 】
Mu You looked at the three conditions and found that there were basically no problems. He had more than two hundred silver owls on hand and the light of evolution could shine on them, so he could easily get thirty of them every month.
However, Muyou still changed the third condition slightly, from thirty pieces per month to three hundred pieces per year for two years. After two years, the contract needs to be renewed with a more relaxed time to avoid unexpected situations.
The other party had no objection, and then the shop owner asked Mu You to sign a business contract, stipulating the rights and obligations of both parties. Mu You needed to meet the above three conditions, and the fat shop owner had to pay Mu You 70% of the final transaction price. In exchange for the life span, Mu You can buy unsterilized familiars in his store at market prices.
[You have signed a business contract with the black cat pet shop owner 'Freeman'. Anyone who breaks the contract will automatically have one thousand years of life deducted and paid to the other party. 】
【You have obtained the 'Freedom from the familiar'. 】
The deal was concluded, Mu You clicked on "Freedom from the Familiar", and a short staff made of white bones appeared in Mu You's hand. The whole body exuded a faint blue light. The body of the staff was engraved with many mysterious patterns, and the head of the staff was similar to a Carvings of bone claws.
The function of this thing is not as simple as a sterilization operation, directly cutting off the reproductive organs, but using magic to eliminate the ability of creatures to reproduce while leaving the organs intact, so it will not have any impact on the health of the familiar. .
Mu You held the sterilization rod in his hand and played with it for a while, and immediately wanted to find an animal to experiment on.
Just at this time, Coke came back from digging cat litter downstairs, and Xie rushed upstairs happily. He saw Mu You standing at the door waving to him, and immediately trotted over excitedly.
But just halfway through, it suddenly noticed the bone rod in Mu You's hand, and immediately braked, the hairs on its back stood up. For some reason, it felt an indescribable fear from the stick. Instead of daring to get closer, it hurriedly fled into the house with its tail between its legs, hid under the bed, and refused to come out again.
…
In the end, Mu You failed to successfully test the effect of the new props. Seeing that the time came to 0:30, he went out to complete the update task and tried to summon the war eagle by the way.
As expected, with the blessing of the highest attributes of the vampire skin, Mu You successfully summoned a level 15 war eagle. The attack power, life, and flight speed all increased significantly. The only pity was that no new abilities appeared.

"The next step is the bottleneck of level 15..."
The tenth-level bottleneck has been under the light of evolution for nearly a month, and the fifteenth level will probably take even longer.
There was no need to rush this. Muyou took a walk outside. After the task was completed, he returned home, took out his phone again, and launched the game.
At this time, his mobility was exhausted, and Mu You had no intention of continuing to mess around. He left the pet shop and released the reconnaissance beetle, letting it go around the city to eavesdrop on information and get up to collect the food tomorrow morning.
But just when the beetles were released and Mu You was about to log off and take a rest, a new prompt suddenly popped up.
[Pumpkin lantern special effects, trigger! 】
[Guided by the cyan glow of the pumpkin lantern, you discovered a pair of scarlet eyes staring at you in the shadow of the far corner of the alley. 】
[You hurriedly raised the light and approached, and found that hiding behind the alley was a mixed-breed cat that looked like a Maine Coon cat. There was a collar around its neck. It was obviously a familiar with an owner. 】
[Catoni has the ability to distinguish between good and evil in people's hearts. It stares at you, perhaps sensing your unusual identity. 】
[After Mao Lizi was discovered by you, he immediately turned around and ran away, disappearing into the alley in an instant. 】
[Are you tracking this cat based on the footprints revealed by the jack-o-lantern? 】
"track."
He was actually being stared at by a cat, but what the jack-o-lantern revealed was usually a benign incident, so he must be tracked down at this time.
[You follow Mao Lizi’s footprints and finally arrive in front of a store. 】
[The signboard on the door reads 'Silent Bookstore'. There are no lights on and no customers in the store. Only the cold moonlight shines through the windows, reflecting the rows of lonely bookshelves, which looks incompatible with the surrounding lively streets. 】
[At this time, there is a ghost girl dressed as a magic student floating in front of the bookstore. The ghost is tied with braids and a pair of exaggeratedly thick glasses. She is holding a cardboard in one hand and holding the other hand in front of her mouth. She is doing this to you. With a gesture of silence, he then showed the cardboard in his hand, which said in the Protoss language: 'Please keep quiet when entering the store'. 】
[After the ghost girl finished speaking, she left the door and sat back on the chair at the front desk to continue reading. The cat you just followed was lying lazily on the desk at the front desk, but his eyes were still focused on you. Entering a bookstore? 】
Mu You didn't rush to choose, but clicked on the text of 'Silent Bookstore' first.
[Silent Bookstore: One of the most famous urban legends in the imperial capital, the Silent Bookstore located in a corner of Siye Street is only open in the dead of night every day. The owner of the bookstore is a mute ghost known as the 'Silent Mother'. She was once the best student in a certain magic academy. She hated noise and had a certain paranoid obsession with reading. During her lifetime, she read crazily and read almost all the books she could find. Later, because she violated some taboo, she became The ghost, trapped in the bookstore left by his parents, continues to read. As time went by, everyone, including herself, forgot her name, leaving only the nickname 'Silent Mother'. 】
[Because Jingmo Niang read too many books, she knew a lot of things and had an unimaginable wealth of knowledge. She was called the 'omniscient Jingmo Niang'. Everyone can ask her a question every day, or ask for advice on practicing a certain magic, but she will only respond to you if you give her a book she has never read. 】

"oh?"
Looking at the latest text, Mu You was a little surprised.
It seems that I have unlocked a very powerful NPC, a ghost that cannot speak. Its function is similar to that of a scarecrow. It can ask questions, but judging from the description, it is much more powerful than the scarecrow. It is known as 'all-knowing' and its identity is a person from the history of the magic academy. A super academic, not only can he ask questions, but he can also ask for advice on magic?
"Are there any books you haven't read..."
Mu You looked at the requirements mentioned in the text. This 'Silent Lady' has read a lot of books. It is estimated that she has read all the books that can be found in the Star Spirit World. That's why her place is so deserted because no one can. Meet her demands.
But this is only limited to the star spirit world. It is different on earth. Mu You doesn't believe that she has read books on earth.
Mu You went to the study room and picked up a copy of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Part 1" from the bookshelf.
This is a complete set that he bought online in order to study magic when he first entered the game. Of course the book was written in Chinese, but the other party only said that a new book was needed and did not specify the language. It didn't matter whether he could understand Mu You or not.
The book was sent into the game through the space ring, and Mu You controlled the character to hand the book to Jingmo Niang.
[Jingmo Niang took the book you handed over, opened it and looked at you with some surprise. 】
[Silent Lady then cast a 'translation spell' on the books, and all the words in the books were immediately converted into the language of the stars. 】
[After reading the first few pages, Jingmo Niang was very satisfied with this book that she had never seen before. She wrote words on the cardboard and asked you if you have any questions. 】
[You can ask Silent Girl a question, or ask her for a magic trick. The magic experience imparted to you by the Silent Girl will increase the level of the magic by one level, up to LV4. If it is a magic that is being learned, the learning progress will be greatly improved. Each teaching session can take up to 2 hours. The improvement progress depends on the difficulty of the magic. It depends on your understanding. 】
Directly increase the magic level, up to LV4!
For players on Earth, this function is actually very powerful and can save a lot of pages of experience books at the cost of just a random book. Of course, the premise is that the book can be sent into the game, either through a door or a space ring like Mu You.
However, this function is relatively useless for Mu You. It is not difficult for him to increase his magic level. As long as he finds one of the same pages of various experience books, he can upgrade to LV5 in batches at any time.
Of course it is better to ask questions first at this time.
Mu You thought about it carefully, and finally entered the words 'City of Dawn' in the text box.
[You asked Silent Mother for information about the City of Dawn. 】
[Jingmo Niang is writing... Jingmo Niang raised the cardboard and it said: I don’t know. 】
Mu You: "..."
I got stuck on the first question. What about knowing everything you promised?
[Silent Mother said that she only knows the knowledge in books. The City of Dawn is the city of the Fool, and all information about the Fool has been destroyed and sealed by the Wizards Association, making it a taboo for the world to keep silent. 】
Knew it……
Mu You's answer was not too surprising.

[This text adventure game is absolutely poisonous] []
But just when he thought this question was not working and was about to change the question, a new prompt popped up.
[Silent Girl raised the cardboard again: Although she cannot answer this question, she knows that there is a place where you may be able to find the information you want. 】
[Now, you can choose to ask other questions, or continue to ask this question. 】
Mu You thought for a while and chose to 'continue asking'.
【Silent Mother is writing...】
The top student began to write silently again, but this time the writing time was longer. It was not until half a minute passed that a new prompt popped up in the game.
[Silent Girl raised the cardboard. 】
[In the historical library of Red Rose Magic Academy, there is a hidden silent library, which contains many books left over from history that cannot be destroyed. Maybe you can find the information you need in it. 】
[But just like its name, absolute silence needs to be maintained in this library. If you make any sound, you will be hurt by the curse of the library and become a ghost permanently.
In addition, since all the books are sealed, you cannot read them directly, you can only use spells to read them from a distance. Therefore, before entering the Silent Library, you need to learn the 'Silent Spell' and the 'Search Spell'. 】
