Beast Taming: I'm Really Just a Forest Ranger

Chapter 368 - 204: The Divine One on the Farm

November 8, Saturday.

Clear skies.

Chen Yuan always considered himself a decisive go-getter. If he said he was going to build a log cabin, he would build it; if he decided to renovate the courtyard, he would do so. This was much better than those procrastinators who said they were going to take a bath but spent an hour still scrolling through videos.

Upon learning that the Beast Taming Mall had a stock of Starlight Stones, Chen Yuan didn’t hesitate for a moment. He got up early and went to accelerate the growth of the Void Fruit Tree.

The current stock of Starlight Stones was very limited, and Chen Yuan was afraid that if he hesitated, someone else would buy them.

Anyway, buying early is better than buying late.

Standing in front of a three-meter-tall Void Fruit Tree, Chen Yuan thought to himself, "System, add points!"

Since this Void Fruit Tree had been growing for some time, he only needed to spend ten Source Points to accelerate it to the mature stage.

A small tree quickly grew into a sturdy tree over twenty meters tall, and the farm’s little creatures were long accustomed to this, except for the family of Wood Spirit Rats.

This was their first time witnessing such a miracle.

"Swoosh....."

The Scarface Rat lifted its head, opened its mouth wide, and stared dumbfounded at the Void Fruit Tree. Its previously swinging fluffy tail stopped moving.

When it lived in the forest, it had heard other Pet Beasts say that the most powerful Pet Beasts could quickly catalyze a small tree into a large tree. So it was true.....

The Scarface Rat suddenly remembered something very important.

The Twin Flower Concubine often referred to the farm owner as mom.

So that’s how it is.

So that’s how it is!!!

Then, the Scarface Rat hopped to the front of Chen Yuan, and its not-so-large eyes revealed worship and inexplicable fervor.

Chen Yuan was stunned: "Did you misunderstand something?"

The Scarface Rat didn’t respond, and the other three Wood Spirit Rats still stood there foolishly.

Seeing this, the Scarface Rat quickly swayed its large tail, driving the other three Wood Spirit Rats to the front of Chen Yuan.

"Swoosh swoosh swoosh."

The Wood Spirit Rat family stood neatly in front of Chen Yuan. The Scarface Rat first lowered its head, and the other three Wood Spirit Rats mimicked it, then kowtowed to Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan quickly stepped aside and then pulled them up: "I really can’t accept this."

"Swoosh!"

The Scarface Rat lifted its head, its eyes shining with devout light, seeing Chen Yuan as an imposing Divine being.

At that moment, the Scarface Rat reaffirmed its decision to work well for the Divine master.

No, not just work well.

They should offer everything for the Divine master!!!

This Void Fruit Tree bore eight fruits, and Chen Yuan, considering the family of Wood Spirit Rats were new employees, specially allocated four fruits to them.

"Swoosh swoosh!"

The Scarface Rat couldn’t believe it as it gazed at the Void Fruits in Chen Yuan’s hand.

These humble Pet Beasts could actually receive a reward from the Divine master.

The Scarface Rat was incredibly excited by this unexpected reward, almost kneeling on the ground to express its gratitude, but was stopped by Chen Yuan: "I’ve noticed all your hard work these days. Take them; they’re your wages."

"Swoosh....."

The Scarface Rat shakily took the Void Fruit, but didn’t eat it right away.

They had done only a little insignificant work, yet they received wages from the Divine master. It really felt undeserved.

"Swoosh swoosh."

The smaller Wood Spirit Rat nearby, however, didn’t think much about it and was about to eat the Void Fruit when it was stopped by the Scarface Rat.

"Swoosh swoosh."

The Scarface Rat shook its head and gathered all four Void Fruits given by Chen Yuan.

The fragrant aroma lingered at the tip of its nose, saliva pooled at the corners of its mouth, and its mouth involuntarily opened and closed, the desire from within calling out.

But it held back.

Although they earned the Divine master’s favor as newcomers, they could not indulge in it. They had to use these four Void Fruits to establish themselves on the farm.

The Scarface Rat hopped with the four Void Fruits to Spark and Cola.

These were the two major subordinates of the Divine master. As long as they formed a good relationship with them, they could establish themselves in the farm.

"Grr~"

Cola nodded, very pleased with the Scarface Rat’s proactive show of goodwill.

I’ll look out for you guys from now on.

The Scarface Rat was overjoyed and then looked towards Spark, whom the farm employees all referred to as the big boss.

Compared to Cola, the Scarface Rat didn’t even dare to look directly at Spark. It carefully pushed two Void Fruits in front of Spark, then lowered its eyes and waited quietly.

Spark didn’t respond, only silently gazing at the Scarface Rat, emitting a natural, intense pressure that shook the Scarface Rat to its core.

Suddenly, out of the corner of the Scarface Rat’s eye, it noticed the two Void Fruits had vanished.

Its eyes lit up with joy, and it immediately looked up, meeting a pair of jet-black eyes.

Chen Yuan smiled at the Scarface Rat: "These are for you guys, take them with peace of mind and keep them for yourselves."

After a pause, he added: "On the farm, you don’t need to overthink. Just work diligently, and you’ll receive payment."

"Swoosh...."

The Scarface Rat took back the Void Fruits from Chen Yuan’s hands and fell into long contemplation.

After a while, its eyes brightened.

I understand now!

The Divine master was hinting that as long as they worked hard, they could continuously earn recognition.

Even beings as weak as them could, with the Divine master’s favor, become the mightiest subordinates!

At once, the Scarface Rat was full of enthusiasm, its eyes filled with beautiful aspirations for the future.

Work, I must work!

If it doesn’t kill me, I will work myself to death!

Four Void Fruits were obviously not enough to exchange for a Starlight Stone. Chen Yuan merely needed to spend another ten Source Points to accelerate a small Void Fruit Tree to the mature stage.

In this way, the originally ample Source Points Chen Yuan had dwindled once more.
