"Ding, your express delivery from another world has been delivered, and the golden finger is being generated. Please sign for it."

Fang Xiaoxiao was eating instant noodles in his single dormitory. He looked at the small golden ball that suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, blinked, and then took a big mouthful of noodles.

So delicious.

Weird things happen every year, but this year there are so many that she is not surprised if she encounters a golden finger.

The weird thing started a week ago.

Fang Xiaoxiao traveled to the secret realm of this world, and her body accidentally shrunk from 23 to 15. Not only did she awaken the card skill book and talent skills, but she also lost her memory.

Forget it, after she was rescued, her IQ was still there and she still remembered her name. Then she passed the senior high school placement test and re-enrolled... This morning, she also regained her memory.

Now comes the problem.

This is a world of beast control. In the college entrance examination here, if you want to go to a good university, you must not only have good academic performance, but also have a certain level of proficiency in the contracted beast pet skills.

If the candidate's own talent skill proficiency meets the standard, that's fine.

However, it is only two months until the college entrance examination...

Fang Xiaoxiao was still complaining just now. It would be great if she could have a golden finger or a particularly talented pet.

Don't talk about it at all, at least help her pass the college entrance examination first.

Unexpectedly, Cao Cao was said to be here, but no, Golden Finger was here.

"Sign for receipt."

Fang Xiaoxiao finished sipping the instant noodles and said calmly.

"Your golden finger 'Mini Energy Ball' is being bound... The binding is successful, please use it rationally, and I wish you a happy use~".

After a brief electronic sound, a large piece of information appeared in her mind. Then, the little ball disappeared.

Before she could finish digesting Goldfinger's "instructions", another voice appeared in her mind:

"Friendly reminder: You can get a novice gift pack, please ask if you want to receive it."

"Get it." Fang Xiaoxiao said without hesitation.

Generally speaking, novice gift packs when playing games will not give you a special item, but it can still be a good gift to help players get through the novice stage.

Could this newbie gift package be what she needs most now?

A ray of light flashed, a star flashed in front of Fang Xiaoxiao, and a card appeared out of thin air.

The cards in this world are the "sleep" mode of extraordinary creatures.

She took the card and found that there was a pattern with the word "beast" hidden on the back, and the character pattern and star rating were on the front.

It's a bit like playing a game and drawing character cards.

There is nothing else on the front of the card except a "black cat" pattern, a star above it, and the three words "Domin Leopard".

However, this black panther looks a bit like a black kitten.

Adhering to the principle that gold-finger products must be high-quality, Fang Xiaoxiao immediately contracted this card using unfamiliar techniques.

She meditated for a moment, and the card skill book in her mind opened automatically.

The first page is an introduction to her talents and skills.

[Talent skill: Listen to the sounds of nature

Properties: None

Level: Entry (38/100)

Features: None

Energy: 50/50]

Turning to the second page of the skill book, the attributes of the cards appeared in her mind.

[Name: Duominbao

Attribute: General system

Level: One star (1/100)

Skills: Impact: 1/100 (entry level); Claws: 1/100 (entry level)

Features: None

Energy: 50/50】

It turns out to be Dominbao, who seems to have pretty good talent.

Fang Xiaoxiao took a brief look at its attribute introduction, and did not summon it immediately. Instead, he pondered the instructions for using the "Mini Energy Ball".

She read it three times and finally concluded that this golden finger has only three functions:

1: The mini energy ball can absorb energy, and every 20 points of energy absorbed can be converted into 1 energy coin. However...it seems that only the energy emitted when she uses her skills can be absorbed.

2: She can use energy coins to replenish energy for her talent skills.

3: She can use energy coins to assist her pet in increasing its energy limit.

So, for the golden finger to work, she had to use skills to collect a wave of energy?

When Fang Xiaoxiao thought of this, he immediately used his talent skill once, which consumed 8 points of energy and increased his skill proficiency a little.

Looking at the card skill book again, there are a few more small words in the upper right corner of each page:

[Energy Points*2, Energy Coins*0]

She was very sure that the normal card skill book did not have this line, so it should be brought by the "mini energy ball".

Looking at the value above, it should be the energy it absorbed just now.

So, she only absorbed 2 points of energy after using the skill once?

However, her innate skill restores energy a bit slowly, only recovering 1 point in 10 minutes. At this rate, she can practice her skills up to a dozen times a day and can only convert 1 to 2 energy coins.

Even if these energy coins are used 100%, they can only replenish 20 to 40 points of energy, which is not enough to practice skills three or four times.

Even if there is such a small amount of energy, it means there is no energy. It seems that counting on energy coins is out of the question.

Therefore, we still have to find a way to train the pet and improve its skills.

Just do it, Fang Xiaoxiao immediately summoned the card.

A white star array lit up, a star flashed, and a black "kitten" appeared in front of Fang Xiaoxiao and jumped into her arms accurately.

"Meow~"

Mom~



Fang Xiaoxiao hugged it and didn't know whether to complain about how it looked like a black kitten or whether to complain about how it called her mother.

As for why she can understand its meaning... after contracting a pet, she can "telepathy" and understand the meaning of her own pet.

But animal pets can understand human words regardless of contract or not.

"Good boy, I'm your card technician, not your mother." Fang Xiaoxiao quickly corrected her.

"Meow meow~"

Okay, my technician.

This kitten... ah no, little leopard, is quite smart. He only needs to listen once to understand what he is saying.

"Since you are so smart, I will call you Xiaomiao from now on," she said.

"Meow~"

Xiaobao, who had no social awareness yet, recognized this name.

Fang Xiaoxiao took advantage of its cleverness and placed it on the desk, "Then let's practice its skills first."

It's very late now, not a good time to practice high-impact skills.

And the room is very small, with only a bunk bed, a desk and a wardrobe below, and a bed above. The remaining space can only be used for walking.

Fang Xiaoxiao looked around, and finally took out an unused towel from the closet and placed it on the desk, "Let's practice the "Claw" skill first."

"Meow~"

Xiaomiao, who saw her own technician at first sight since she was born, didn't refuse to listen to her words. She immediately shook her short legs and walked towards the towel.

But as soon as it took two steps, its legs and feet bent and it fell on the desk.

"Meow...meow, meow~"

Mom...skiller, I'm hungry~

Fang Xiaoxiao:......

In the end, they failed to develop their skills.

Fang Xiaoxiao dug out the snacks given by the part-time proprietress in the cabinet, gave it two dried fish sticks, and then hugged it to sleep after eating.



The next day, Saturday.

Today is a day for rest, and it is also a day for Fang Xiaoxiao to work part-time.

At 8:30 in the morning, the Xushan East Street Training Center opened on time.

She found a job as a cleaner here. She arrived at around eight o'clock, put on her work clothes and went in.

Fortunately, the law here allows minors over 14 years old to work, otherwise she wouldn't even be able to do this part-time job.

Because it was still early and there was no need to clean the training ground, she found a small bench nearby, holding Xiaomiao who was eating dried fish in her arms, and sat quietly reading a book.

Occasionally she would raise her head to look at the progress of other people's games.

In this area, each training ground is as big as two basketball courts and is surrounded by bulletproof glass, so you can clearly see what's going on inside.

There are two not too high platforms at both ends of the training ground, and the contestants stand on one side.

In the training ground in front of me, the two students who came in were from the same school as Fang Xiaoxiao. She couldn't remember his name, but she had seen him at a campus commendation meeting and it seemed he had won an award.

The two were ready and quickly selected the training site. Then, a rocky site rose from under the floor and stopped perfectly on a flat surface.

"I lost to you last time because the venue was not good. I will definitely beat you this time."

They didn't use the training ground's noise-cancelling equipment, which cost extra, so Fang Xiaoxiao could hear the conversation between the two.

"Even if the venue is changed, I can still beat you. Just wait..."

"Go ahead, Green Knife Mantis."

"It's you, Bouncy Bunny."

A white star formation lit up in front of both of them, and one person took out a card from it.

The card turned into a star in the blink of an eye, streaking across the sky, and then a green mantis half as tall as a man and a pink rabbit less than knee-high appeared on the field.

"Green Knife Mantis, use the flying knife."

"Elastic Bunny, flash with lightning."

The two pet animals heard the command and acted at the same time.

"Mantis~"

"Rabbit~"

The two arms of the Green Knife Mantis, which looked like large scimitars, waved one to the left and one to the right in the air. The next second, the nearby air seemed to turn into flying knives, flying forward quickly visible to the naked eye.

The pink rabbit directly in front of the flying knife did not stand still and wait, but moved quickly left and right, even leaving an afterimage in the air, avoiding the attacks that kept flying over.

Fang Xiaoxiao silently closed the book in his hand, picked up Xiaomiao, stood up straight, and took two steps forward.

She has watched this kind of real-life pet battle twice, but every time she watched it, she couldn't help but get excited.

It would be great if she and her pet could also use such dazzling skills.

Fang Xiaoxiao's eyes couldn't help but look at Xiaomiao in her arms.

"Meow?"

Xiaomiao, who had just finished eating a piece of dried fish and was licking her paws, raised her head and called out in confusion, her light brown eyes wet.

...Forget it, it's still small now.

Fang Xiaoxiao sighed silently, and then couldn't help but take another step forward.

The two pet beasts in the field were, after all, one-star level, and they didn't have much energy in their bodies. After using a few skills, the winner was quickly decided.

However, at this moment, she felt a familiar energy fluctuation in her mind.

This is the energy fluctuation that occurs when the energy ball absorbs energy.

Realizing this, Fang Xiaoxiao's heartbeat accelerated.

Could it be that it is not limited to herself, but that no matter who uses the skill, as long as she is nearby, they can absorb and store energy?
