Taming Beasts To Survive: I Can See The Prompts Chapter 61
Advertisement
Mcgee was not surprised at all to receive the lizard skin and meat.
It was a pity that the lizard meat was poisonous. How delicious could it be?
What was truly valuable was that he had broken down the lizard's innate skill and gained the ability to resist high temperatures.
This was truly a pleasant surprise. It could greatly increase one's adaptability to changes in the environment.
In the future, when he encountered fire-type monsters again, he could also take a few more hits.
Moreover, once the Molten Lizard died, everything in the Rift Valley could be explored freely by him.
Moreover, now was the time for leveling and maintenance. All the monsters had yellow names, which greatly increased the ability of Beast Masters to roam freely.
It was not hard to imagine that many people would take advantage of this time to leave their homes and explore.
Of course, Mcgee would not let go of this opportunity.
It would be even better if he could walk around the vicinity of his home and learn more about it.
"Let's go to that guy's home and take a look first."
Soon, Mcgee led the tamed beasts to climb the Rift Valley. They arrived at the top and first examined the corpse.
It was a white man in his thirties. His clothes were worn out and faintly emitted the smell of saltpeter and sulfur.
Apparently, this man had obtained the blueprint of high explosives and successfully made high explosives.
The blueprint was a consumable item. Mcgee did not expect the other party to keep it.
However, the materials to make the explosives might be near this white man's home.
At this stage, high explosives could be considered strategic materials and could not be missed.
"Little Spirit Fox, dig a hole."
After a while, the hole appeared.
Mcgee kicked the white man into the hole and buried him on the spot. He even deliberately used a big rock to press on the grave.
Although the other party wanted to kill him, the crime was unforgivable.
However, Mcgee was not a cold-blooded animal. In the spirit of humanity, he still let him be buried in peace. He did not want the monsters to mess with him and let him die without a complete corpse.

Not long after, Mcgee approached the white man's wooden house.
There were many craters on the ground nearby. It was obvious that explosive traps had been set up. Just like land mines, they were used to kill intruding monsters.
Mcgee swept his gaze over.
[High explosive charge level 2 found. Dangerous. Please take a careful detour.]
[High explosive charge level 3 found. Dangerous. Please do not approach.]
[...]
This guy had arranged more than 20 sets of explosive charges around his house. He had used a special method to set them up. It was like a land mine. If he stepped on them, he would be finished.
"Strange. Where did this guy's tamed beast go?"
Mcgee had been paying attention to this point.
He ordered his tamed beast to follow closely and not to wander around. Then, Mcgee walked into the wooden house.
[Saltpeter found * 20]
[Charcoal found * 15]
[Found sulfur * 30]
[Found thunder crystal core * 1]
[Found fire crystal core * 1]
[Found LV3 high explosives package * 5]
[Found LV4 high explosives package * 1]
Apparently, the white man not only learned several high explosives blueprints but also had a way to collect the corresponding materials to make explosives.
If it were not for Mcgee's battle activity that attracted him, the white man would probably still be making explosives.
Suddenly, a rustling sound came from below the workbench.
"Master, be careful. It's a tamed beast."
The Little Spirit Fox reacted quickly and immediately jumped in front of Mcgee, putting on a battle stance.
The Steel Fairy and the Greed Treasure Chest retreated in a hurry. The two timid guys were terrified of death.
Mcgee glanced at them speechlessly. These two guys were really useless.
He looked down.
The tamed beast under the workbench was actually a pangolin!
The latter was staring at the group of uninvited guests in the wooden house with its two confused and panicked little eyes. It did not dare to move and did not even dare to breathe loudly.
It seemed that it was trying to muddle through.

...
Mcgee immediately understood why the white man did not bring his tamed beast to fight.
This guy was simply like a Greed Treasure Chest. He could not be counted on at all.
However, this guy was quite useful.
No wonder the white man could have saltpeter and sulfur to make strong explosives.
If he subdued him, Mcgee could also obtain underground materials in the future.
"Little guy, don't be afraid."
With this in mind, Mcgee signaled the Little Spirit Fox to stand down while trying to communicate.
"Sob, sob, sob... you killed my master, I'll fight you to the death."
The Earth Mine Pangolin stared with its angry little eyes and said ruthlessly.
However, its body was frank. It was so afraid that it shrank into the hole.
"He was the one who wanted to kill us and asked for death. So how can you blame us?" Mcgee corrected its words.
"I don't care. He's my master. I want to avenge him," The Pangolin said righteously.
"Okay, you do it."
Mcgee sneered. "Once your master dies, you lose your loyalty. You even hate him in your heart."
Mcgee told the truth. He had seen beasts with low loyalty, but this was the first time he had seen a beast with such low loyalty.
"Humph, if you want to fight, then go ahead. Don't talk nonsense. I'll beat you up."
The Little Spirit Fox could not help but raise her tail and condensed a fireball the size of a basketball, looking like it could be fired at any time.
The terrifying high temperature released caused the temperature in the wooden house to increase sharply.
Even Mcgee, who resisted high temperatures, could not help but take a few steps back.
The Pangolin, which liked the darkness, immediately shrank back into the hole, leaving only its small head outside. Its eyeballs rolled around, looking at the pile of materials with reluctance.
It was probably trying to take its master's belongings after his death, or else it would have escaped long ago.
Mcgee accurately captured its mentality.
This Earth Mine Pangolin was not good at fighting, but it was beneficial.
If it were subdued, some materials that could not be collected underground would no longer be difficult to farm for.
"I know you hid a lot of materials behind your master's back."
"But, what's the point of having so many materials? If you follow me, I can help you level up and evolve."
Mcgee pointed at the Little Spirit Fox and patiently said, "Look at it. In just a few days, it went from level 1 to level 5 and even evolved once."
"Master, why are you wasting your breath on this coward?" The Little Spirit Fox was displeased.
In its opinion, Mcgee wanting to subdue the Pangolin was already a great gift.
"Is what you said true?"
The Pangolin ignored the Little Spirit Fox and hurriedly asked Mcgee.
It was obviously moved.
Tamed Beast also wanted to become stronger.
Mcgee smiled and nodded. "Why would I lie to you? And I never mistreat my beasts."
The Greed Treasure Chest behind him suddenly revealed a look of disdain and quietly complained, "Lying to a three-year-old child."

I am using this short story collection as a way to test the waters before I seriously consider publishing a novel. As English isn't my mother tongue, I would appreciate it if native speakers, anglicists or any other proficient users of the English language could kindly inform me about any mistakes in grammar or word choice so that I may correct it. The same applies to any sentence or paragraph that may sound unnatural in English.

Twisted Skies
After his master's death, Thurain leaves his rural home behind and travels to Heliana, the cramped city founded on the scientific progress of cultivation. Under a fake name, he aims to enter the Elemental Path Sect, the place of his master's death, to find both his killers, and closure. However, surrounded by the strange and horrible wonders of Heliana and its mixture of heroes and villains, his master's death is not the only murder he may have to solve. --- First attempt at a xianxia novel from me. To shake things up from the usual formula, the setting is more steam-punk than you might expect, and there are elements of murder mystery mixed in with the standard formula (though I'm not entirely sure yet how far to go with it.) I wrote this a while ago for NaNoWriMo, only posting it now for various reasons. Enjoy. Also, cover is highly temporary. I'll probably replace it with something nicer eventually.
