During the process, that Transcendent creature didn't resist or struggle, only continuously stared at Mingxi with its owl-like eyes.
Sharp and cold, as if it could see through everything.
It was very similar to how Golden Yuanbao looked at people with special seriousness.
Of course, Mingxi didn't feel any malice from it.
“Buzz!”
As they stared at each other, that Transcendent creature finally completely integrated into the Pet Space, and Mingxi's spiritual sea immediately gained a new sensation.
Mingxi summoned the other party out again.
She looked at her sixth pet, whose eyes had changed from sharp to resolute.
Now it was like a sword capable of settling the universe!
“Fire He!”
My King!
It suddenly knelt on one knee before Mingxi, its right arm across its chest, performing a perfectly standard knight's salute.
While Mingxi was dumbfounded, the other party did something even grander.
The magic array lit up on the Spiritual Contract Platform once more.
“Fire He, Fire He...”
I, by the heart of Fire He, swear that loyalty shall be my lifelong virtue, guarding my inner self, and serving this human before me forever.
She is the King, I am the spear!
Where she points, there my gaze shall be directed!
After a long string of incantations, the magic array suddenly shrunk and split into two; one half merged into Mingxi's body, while the other wrapped around its slender neck, as if an invisible pair of hands were meticulously weaving, transforming into a red lace choker with two matching ribbons tied on its right side.
Even though it was covered in red armor, looking cold and resolute, wearing this choker didn't seem out of place.
Instead, it exuded a unique charm of strength mixed with softness, and a free-spirited, dashing aura.
Just like the red tassel on a red-tasseled spear!
This scene didn't just dumbfound Mingxi; all five of Golden Yuanbao's pets were stunned.
They had never seen such a situation.
Even Emerald Green, who was 99 years old and considered herself the most mature, wise, and knowledgeable in the family, rarely showed a 'what the hell' bewildered expression.
Why was this new sixth one so unique?
It even came with its own loyalty ceremony!
It made their own contracting seem rather unimpressive.
It was an eyesore.
Of course, this was the thought of a few pets; another few, however, found the newcomer very interesting, like Black Pearl, the Fish Baby who was still holding a milk bottle and whose courage and intelligence were inversely proportional.
It had excitedly jumped out of Emerald Green's embrace and bounced over to its new companion, who had already stood up.
“Asui, Asui?”
Hello there~ (^◇^)/
Baby, I'm Black Pearl, do you want to be called Red Pearl?
Mingxi was still in a daze, but hearing Black Pearl's words immediately cleared her mind!
I didn't realize you were such a Fish Baby.
At the same moment, Golden Yuanbao and the others also 'came alive'.
“You Yan!” Xiao Ye thought the sixth one should be called Farewell Overlord!
Good, good, good, Golden Yuanbao, you understand naming.
“Luo Luo Luo Luo.” Red Flower is good, you can tell right away we're sisters.
“Ling.” Crimson Moon is elegant.
Mingxi happily raised her hand: “What do you all think of the name Red Wolf?”
Gold, Silver, and Blue, Emerald Green, Black, and Red... Hmm? The red, not yet fully confirmed, shook their heads in perfect unison.
“You Yan.”
“Luo.”
“Ling.”
“Jin.”
“Asui.”
“Fire He.”
It was truly too unpleasant.
Mingxi: “...” There’s no need to be so in sync, doesn’t she have any dignity?
Especially that one, didn't you say you'd be loyal? How can you dislike the name your 'King' racked her brains to give you?
Oaths are indeed all farts.
“Fire He.”
That one bent down and picked up Black Pearl.
It stated with a serious expression that toddlers should crawl on the ground as little as possible, or they would catch a cold.
Then it placed Black Pearl back on Emerald Green's arm.
“Fire He!”
Keep an eye on it!
Its gaze was cold, without killing intent, but with a sense of admonishment.
Emerald Green: “...”
It wasn't a nanny!
Forget it.
It wouldn't bother with the newcomer; returning to the matter of naming, it felt it also needed to participate.
“Jin Jin?” How about Red Agate? frёeωebɳovel.com
The family already had Yuanbao, Pearl, or Emerald Green; at worst, it was a flower. The newcomer didn't need to be too unconventional.
Lan Yue: Then I'll leave?
How is the moon not a gem?
Little Silver Flower: Then I'll leave?
...
Although Mingxi thought Red Wolf was cooler, since everyone objected, Mingxi wasn't someone who wouldn't listen to advice.
“Red Agate isn't bad, but it doesn't quite match its temperament.”
Mingxi thought for a moment and said, “Red Agate is ◆ Nоvеlіgһt ◆ (Only on Nоvеlіgһt) also called Scarlet Jade, so how about just Scarlet Jade?”
This pet was clearly female.
Silver Flower and Scarlet Jade; you could tell right away they were sisters.
“Fire He.”
Scarlet Jade thanks my King for the name.
Mingxi silently rubbed away the goosebumps on her arms; it was a bit chuunibyou.
The name Scarlet Jade was thus decided.
The Spirit Pact Chamber door finally opened with a hiss.
“Let’s go, we’ll head out first.”
Mingxi led the group of beasts out.
At this moment, outside the delivery room door...
Ahem, I misspoke, let me rephrase.
At this moment, outside the Spirit Pact Chamber door, Chu Kuangsheng and the others, who had been anxiously waiting, had dozens of eyes like searchlights shoot over, quickly scanning before landing on Scarlet Jade, who was closely following Mingxi!
Instantly, they were dumbfounded.
Then, the commotion quickly erupted.
“What kind of Transcendent creature is this!?”
“Fire Her Vakili!”
Otherwise, why would Zhang Zhenhai be the director?
He recognized Scarlet Jade's species at a glance.
“Fire Her Vakili?? Fire Her Vakili? This name sounds familiar, where have I heard it? It’s so frustrating, I feel like my brain is trying to grow...”
The researchers scratched their heads, deep in thought, pulling out handfuls of their own hair.
It was still Zhang Zhenhai who rescued their parched minds.
“Fire Her Vakili is the Advanced Level form of the Steel Knight Cat-Owl, a rare-level legendary Steel Knight Cat-Owl!”
When he said that, not only the researchers but even Mingxi remembered.
The Steel Knight Cat-Owl, a Transcendent creature theoretically extinct, a dual-elemental Transcendent creature of Steel and Flight. Records seemed to indicate two evolution chains, but due to various reasons, relevant data was missing.
And Fire Her Vakili was the Advanced Level form of the Steel Knight Cat-Owl. In pursuit of powerful defense and combat ability, Fire Her Vakili abandoned the Flight ability belonging to a cat-owl and strengthened its Steel attribute.
In the ancient language of Green Field Star, “Vari” means knight.
So, Fire Her Vakili was also called the Steel Knight.
Yes, the Steel Knight Cat-Owl was a species of Green Field Star, but it only existed in the primitive records of Green Field Star's indigenous humans from thousands of years ago, so there was very little information about the Steel Knight Cat-Owl and Fire Her Vakili.
“So Mingxi contracted a Transcendent creature that has been extinct on Green Field Star for a thousand years? Is that even possible? How does Mingxi manage to summon all sorts of outrageous things?”
“That's the Phantom Color Contract—one step to hell, one step to heaven.”
“Perhaps for others, but Miss Mingxi has always been in heaven.”
Zhang Zhenhai looked at Mingxi and said excitedly, “Miss Ming, we still need to conduct some tests on Fire Her Vakili.”
