Volume 1 Feathering Chapter 8 Green Tree Frog
A few minutes later, this short conflict ended, and Levi successfully gained a mediocre victory and more than a dozen experience points.
The three different evaluations, mediocre, slightly advantageous, and overwhelmingly victorious, seem to correspond to the system's different levels of recognition of combat performance. Therefore, there is no additional bonus experience points for this battle. After all, the opponent is also very weak.
After kicking away several kobold corpses, Levi and the militiamen entered the kobolds' real lair.
This is a circular hall with fifty or sixty caves of various sizes densely packed around it. At the same time, a pungent stench instantly hits the area, and rotten fur and bones with teeth marks can be seen everywhere within the field of vision.
It seems that even though the Kobolds are humanoid creatures and have a certain degree of intelligence, they are still just savage monsters.
but……
After scanning the area again, Levi couldn't help but frown. The number of these caves didn't seem to match the number of dog-headed men that had appeared before. He and his companions had only killed less than thirty dog-headed men in total...
He immediately gave the order: "Quick, search for possible spoils as quickly !"
As he spoke, he covered his mouth and nose without paying attention to the filth and dirt on the ground, and walked towards the largest cave.
A few minutes later, Levi walked out with a happy look on his face. In his hands were several eggs as big as an adult's fist and a small green egg that was only the size of a finger.
Although their name is dog-headed people, they actually just bark like dogs. Their appearance is actually more like lizards or crocodiles, and they are naturally more likely to lay eggs.
"Kobold Egg: can randomly hatch a Savage-type 0-level soldier, a Kobold/Kobold Miner/Kobold Slinger."
"Because the kobolds are initially in the lawful evil camp by default, which does not match your race and faction, and you have not mastered the relevant skills, after forced hatching, their initial morale will be extremely low, and there is a high probability that they will choose to escape or betray.
You can also use it as a material for sacrifice, alchemy, or magic."
"Green Tree Frog Egg: It can hatch a small neutral frog - Green Tree Frog. After professional training, it has the potential to grow into a Tier 3 soldier."
Morale? Is it a hidden attribute? Considering the timid look of the militiamen before, it is probably related.
Unfortunately, it seems to be a hidden attribute and cannot be seen on the attribute panel. I can only study it later.
He put away the ogre's eggs and looked at the frog eggs carefully. According to the system prompts, it seems that after hatching, it will not be able to become a combat animal immediately. Instead, it is a small animal that needs professional breeding and training. Unfortunately, Levi currently does not have any of the conditions at all.
However, can it conclude a magical pet contract?
After a quick glance, he found that several militiamen had already gathered the spoils together, and some had even started to take a rest. He simply took out some supplies, which were some rough black bread and water.
You know what, although it looks terrible, the quantity is quite large. No wonder the system says that one portion is a militiaman's one-day supply.
He told them to take turns standing guard and eating, while he himself went to study magic.
He didn't know what the chances were that these eggs would drop if he died on the road, but if he completed the magic contract here, according to the previous system prompts, this little frog should belong to him forever. Even if he died in an accident, there would still be a chance of resurrection!
The militiamen were all overjoyed and hurriedly took it without caring about the stench in the ogre's cave.
Soon, he followed the system's instructions and the relevant knowledge in his mind and confirmed that it was possible. However, concluding a magic pet contract required primary materials including ink to arrange a simple magic circle, and then consume mana. This was a bit annoying because there were no materials in the wild.
But soon he found another hint. Although he didn't have the materials, he could use blood, that is, health points, instead.
The magician's blood also has magical powers and may even be of higher quality than ordinary materials.
What was there to hesitate about? After all, the militia was in this state after the previous battle, and it was time for him to go back. What he had to do now was to reduce the chances of his death or loss of items as much as possible!
When he cut his arm with one of the few remaining arrows and cast a spell according to the system's instructions, he was surprised to find that the process was unexpectedly smooth. Less than two minutes later, he felt a faint consciousness coming from the bottom of his heart.
It's somewhat similar to the mental link that summons elementals, but much more resilient.
At the same time, a system prompt popped up.
"You have successfully concluded a pet contract."

Skill: Tree Frog Poison. The claws and tongue of the green tree frog can add poison attacks, causing the target to fall into a poisoned state, causing a continuous loss of 2-3 health points per second for 3-5 seconds.

talent:
Speed Swimming: The Green Tree Frog can swim at 1.5 times its normal speed in water.
Toxin Resistance: The Green Tree Frog is naturally good at using toxins and also has strong resistance to toxins. The duration and effect of all poisonous attacks against it will be greatly reduced.

Pet Abilities:
Magic Pet Symbiosis: Magic pets will not die permanently. When they die in battle, you can revive them by spending gold coins and experience points. The cost is related to the level of the magic pet.
Share Power: A familiar can share some or all of the experience points it gains from killing an enemy with you (0% - 100%, adjustable), or you can share some of the experience points you gain from killing an enemy with it (0% - 10%, adjustable)
Alertness: When your familiar is within one meter, you gain the Alertness feat, your senses become sharper, and your vision and hearing are slightly enhanced, that is, your perception attribute is +1.
Share Magic: At your option, you can have magic you cast on yourself also affect a familiar. The familiar must be within 3 meters of you when the spell takes effect.
Common abilities of frog pets: Whenever the pet's level or constitution increases by 1, your upper limit of health will also increase by 1. The current increase is (0+3).
He closed the system panel with great satisfaction. Although there was no information about regular magical pets, there was no need to think too much about it. They definitely did not have such a series of attributes.
Especially the last feature, although it doesn't seem like much, a few points of health can save your life at a critical moment.
And it's like this at level 0. After upgrading, is it possible to feed back its abilities to yourself? Think about it, gaining poison resistance or swimming skills is pretty good, right?
But, should I say it is worthy of being a magic pet? Even though it looks only two knuckles long, its vitality is even more abundant than mine...
At this time, a faint but extremely clear spirit also came through some mysterious channel, as if asking.
He immediately understood that it belonged to the little frog in front of him. He could give orders to the other party through this kind of mental communication, but there was a certain range limitation. At present, it was probably a circular area with himself as the center and a radius of nine meters, which happened to be the sum of his level and intelligence value.
Even though it was his first time, he could use this ability as freely as using his own arms.
As soon as he stretched out his hand, without saying anything, a little frog that was as green as a jade ornament and looked very cute jumped up automatically, scratched with its little claws, and quickly got into his pocket.
Although its health is higher than his own, due to its small size, he still doesn't expect it to play much of a role in a real battle. An occasional sneak attack and some experience points will be enough.
After calming himself down a bit, he suddenly had an epiphany. If it were any other game, a weak mage at the beginning would find it difficult to develop. However, in this strategy game, with many subordinates to rely on, a mage who seemed to have weak vitality could quickly overcome the fragile period and become the most powerful profession in one fell swoop!
