Chapter 580 — Quick, Summon the Eleven Great Gods
The Beast-Taming Craftsman Page 6 of 6
With Shi Ying's family circumstances, becoming a Beast Tamer was too hard.
But Shi Cen was lucky; a bit of talent plus a bit of effort, at least the job he had now was connected to Beast Tamers, and it was not impossible for him to become one in the future.
He had even made many preparations, determined to take out a loan if necessary to buy a high-quality pet beast cub and become a Beast Tamer.
Young as he was, he had already decided to take on a pet beast loan.
Shi Jin broke down—sure enough, it was miserable.
Carrying a huge mortgage and car loan himself, he actually felt a billion points of empathy—he had not expected to shoulder loans even after crossing over.
That was getting too far ahead; as things stood, Shi Yu was just a lowly hired hand.
And soon enough, a task would be waiting for him. A 666 work schedule—Shi Yun was strict.
Honestly, apart from his high school years, it had been a long time since he had gotten up at six in the morning...
Shi Jin rubbed his head with a pained expression, then walked over to a wall plastered with a work schedule.
This was the weekly task list handed out just yesterday. As an intern at the breeding base, his daily tasks were all arranged for him.
Today's tasks were... Shi Qi looked at the contents under Monday.
Morning: Feed the Snow Wolf pack (solo task)... Haul feed (group task)...
Afternoon: Record growth data for the Green Silk Worms (group task)...
Hmm...
If his memory served him right... Snow Wolves were pack-living, extremely fierce and savage carnivorous beasts, weren't they?
A task that looked so dangerous... and it was solo? Were they serious?
Shi Jin sank into deep thought.
He had been bitten by a dog as a child, and he was naturally timid around canines. This task was a bit toxic for him.
"But it shouldn't be a big problem..."
Shi Jin suddenly remembered that he possessed the "Telepathy" talent, which allowed him to communicate normally with any living creature. It probably wouldn't cause any problems...
The reason he had been able to come here for an internship was not only his excellent grades in the school's theory courses, but also his special beast-taming talent called "Telepathy."
When a human successfully opens a beast-taming space through meditation, an awakening of a beast-taming talent accompanies it.
Apart from not yet having contracted an initial beast, Shi Jin had already successfully opened his beast-taming space and smoothly awakened his talent.
This was thanks to the nation's efforts to cultivate beast-taming talents: after entering the modern era, the state incorporated the meditation method for opening a beast-taming space into Zhaoye education. Shi Jin was detected as having a beast-taming talent during that stage.
There were many kinds of beast-taming talents, but they mainly fell into two major types: enhancement type and special type, with an awakening ratio of roughly 9:1.
Enhancement-type talents, such as Flame Enhancement—a beast tamer with such a talent would do best to find a beast with flame abilities to cultivate.
Because in battle, the beast tamer could use their own beast-taming talent to enhance the power of their beast's flame-type skills.
Compared to enhancement-type talents, special-type talents were extremely complex and followed no pattern; the forms in which different talents manifested their abilities varied enormously.
For example, the special-type talent "Sharing" allowed a beast tamer to share one skill of a contracted beast, granting themselves a superhuman ability.
Generally, beast tamers with talents like Sharing possessed far greater self-preservation and combat strength than ordinary beast tamers.
There was also the special talent "Fusion," which allowed a beast tamer to briefly fuse with their beast into a new form. Perhaps beast-eared girls really did exist?
As for Jue's Telepathy talent, although it was also special-type, it was rather common—one of the most widespread special-type talents at present.
A beast tamer with the Telepathy talent, once they had mastered the ability, could communicate with any intelligent being without language barriers.
Normally, a beast tamer could only understand the thoughts of beasts they had contracted with, but beast tamers with the Telepathy talent could communicate to some degree even with other people's beasts or wild creatures.
In the history of the beast tamer profession, the Telepathy talent could not directly form combat power, yet its status was unshakable and indispensable.
After all, if one could communicate with other species, a great and unnecessary battle could very likely be avoided outright.
In fields such as medical work, teaching, research, and animal husbandry within the beast tamer profession, beast tamers with the Telepathy talent basically held the core positions. It was an all-purpose talent.
With such a practical beast-taming talent, logically speaking, he should get along with wild creatures rather easily...
Thinking this, Shi Jin breathed a sigh of relief.
As for using "Telepathy," although Shi Jin could not claim to be very skilled, he should not be too bad either.
He subconsciously tried to use his beast-taming talent, listening in all directions, intending to familiarize himself with the steps in advance so as to avoid a disaster later.
But just at that moment, a sudden change occurred...
As the beast-taming space Shi Jin had opened in his mind trembled, his vision suddenly blurred, and then, in his mind, a black stone bestiary unexpectedly surfaced.
He seemed to have... awakened a second beast-taming talent!
