Rafam Continent, Vermilion Bird City Pet Hatching Point

"I'll offer you 1 million for it. What do you think?"

The handsome guy looked at the dark green pet egg in Red Eyes' hand, unable to suppress the greed on his face as he spoke.

At this moment, Zhan Chen suddenly said:

"I'll give you 2 million, give it to me."

The handsome guy was almost about to jump up:

"Damn, don't be so competitive! I made the first bid."

Zhan Chen replied irritably:

"No one said others couldn't raise the bid."

The handsome guy's face turned anxious:

"3 million, I'll take it."

Red Eyes looked at the two of them arguing, feeling a bit embarrassed:

"I never said I was going to sell it!"

Their faces froze at this, and then they saw Red Eyes handing the pet egg to the pet manager, Alina:

"I want to hatch it."

Alina extended her slender jade hands to receive the pet egg handed over by Red Eyes, asking:

"Are you sure you want to hatch this pet egg?"

Under the eager gaze of the handsome guy and others, Red Eyes firmly nodded:

"I am sure."

Alina suddenly reminded:

"It's detected that you already have a combat pet. If you hatch this one, the current pet will disappear."

"Final confirmation, are you sure you want to hatch it?"

The handsome guy suddenly rushed out and said:

"Xiao Jie, are you crazy?"

"Your current pet (Netherworld Tiger) is so overbearing!"

"Why take the risk and hatch this unknown new pet?"

He continued to reason emotionally:

"Look at me, I'm different."

"I've wanted to replace my Three-tailed Flame Bird for a long time."

"If you give it to me, you'll fulfill me and get 5 million Reality Coins. It's a sure deal!"

However, despite the handsome guy's persuasion, Red Eyes remained firm:

"I am not short on money."

And indeed.

The Mercenary Corps brings Red Eyes millions in income monthly.

Moreover, Red Eyes and Lin Yi are similar; they don't place much emphasis on money.

They just think it's fine as long as there's enough.

Currently, Red Eyes and the little girl's savings have already reached tens of millions.

Thus, Red Eyes is quite satisfied with the current situation.

The handsome guy underestimated Red Eyes by trying to persuade him with money.

Red Eyes insisted on hatching it for another reason.

When Red Eyes touched the pet egg, he felt a very special sensation.

He believed this pet egg would be much better than his current one (Netherworld Tiger).

What Red Eyes wants now is to find every possible way to become stronger.

And then repay Lin Yi, who gave him a second chance at life.

This has always been the wish of both Red Eyes and Wang Zixin.

For what Lin Yi has done for them, the siblings remember every little bit.

They are trying to find ways to repay Lin Yi.

Getting stronger and helping Lin Yi is clearly the most direct and useful way.

The handsome guy seemed to have sensed Red Eyes' determination, so he had no choice but to give up.

Red Eyes looked at Alina and once again said firmly:

"Hatch it."

Upon hearing this, Alina slightly nodded:

"Alright."

Alina first confirmed the tier of the pet egg, then said to Red Eyes:

"Hatching it requires 5,000 Gold Coins."

Red Eyes cheerfully took out 5,000 Gold Coins and handed them over.

After receiving the coins, Alina said:

"I'll help you hatch it, please wait a moment."

Under the gaze of everyone, Alina placed the pet egg at the center of the array and then activated the array.

Next, she took out an energy stone the size of a pinky and inlaid it into the array's core.

As the energy stone was placed, a stream of energy continuously poured into the pet egg.

At that moment, a shocked expression appeared on Alina's face:

"How could this be?"

Suddenly, with a "pop" sound, the energy stone at the core turned into powder.

Everyone present looked at each other in confusion.

Everyone instinctively looked at Alina, who appeared solemn:

"Please wait, I'll be back shortly."

Without any explanation, Alina hurriedly left, leaving everyone bewildered.

The handsome guy suddenly looked at the pet egg waiting to hatch in the array, full of disbelief:

"If I remember correctly."

"That energy stone was more than enough to hatch two epic-level pet eggs, right?"

"How did it shatter just like that?"

Everyone's eyes fell on the seemingly unremarkable pet egg.

The only possible reason for this outcome was it.

Zhang Xinying looked at Dongfang Jing beside her, curiously asking:

"Sister Jing, do you know what's going on?"

Among these people, besides Lin Yi, only Dongfang Jing could be considered 'well-versed'.

When faced with unsolvable problems, the first response is to ask her.

This time, Dongfang Jing did not disappoint, explaining:

"There's only one possibility for this result."

"To hatch this pet egg, more energy is needed."

"Based on what just happened."

"The required energy stones might need to be tenfold, or even... a hundredfold."

"Hiss..."

Everyone was shocked by Dongfang Jing's words.

Only Red Eyes couldn't hide the excitement inside.

Even a fool knows that at this moment.

The more energy required to hatch a pet egg, the stronger the pet will be.

This fact is undeniable.

The handsome guy already felt a tinge of regret, regretting why he hadn't been more decisive earlier to snatch the pet egg from Red Eyes' hand.

He was also increasingly curious.

What kind of creature will come from this pet egg?

The next moment,

Nidya, the City Lord of Vermilion Bird City, suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

Alina hurriedly came from outside.

Then she pointed to the pet egg at the center of the array beside Nidya:

"This is it."

Nidya looked at the dark green pet egg, frowning slightly.

Then she turned to Red Eyes with a serious expression:

"Are you sure you want to continue hatching this pet egg?"

Seeing Nidya's expression, as if something bad might happen, Red Eyes almost gave up.

Fortunately, Red Eyes had extraordinary willpower, withstanding Nidya's invisible pressure, and said:

"I'm sure!"

Nidya didn't waste words:

"Very well."

"To hatch it, you'll need 200,000 Gold Coins."

"200,000?"

Upon hearing this number, Red Eyes almost jumped up, shocked:

"How could it need this much?"

Then Nidya suddenly took out a box estimated to contain dozens of thumb-sized energy stones:

"If it weren't for Feng Hua's sake, I wouldn't hatch it for less than half a million."

Everyone couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts at this.

The handsome guy suddenly said:

"How about you give it to me, I have 200,000 Gold Coins."

Then he turned to Red Eyes:

"I'll give you another 10 million, how about that?"

Feeling the handsome guy's urgent mood, Red Eyes couldn't help but roll his eyes:

"I'm not selling."

"If you want it, wait for Boss Feng to come next time and get it from him."

Then Red Eyes sought Zhan Chen, Zhang Xinying, and Mingmen Yue'Er, gathering the 200,000 Gold Coins.

As for the handsome guy, he actually didn't have that many Gold Coins on him either.

The earlier statement was just to make Red Eyes give up the pet egg.

After receiving the 200,000 Gold Coins from Red Eyes, Nidya said:

"Wait quietly on the side, don't speak."

Then, under everyone's incredulous gaze, Nidya placed the box of dozens of energy stones into the array's core.

"Boom..."

Countless energies surged into the pet egg through the array's medium.

Subsequently, a powerful aura suddenly rose from the pet egg, soaring to the sky.

Then a puzzled female voice suddenly echoed:

"Where is this?"
