Chapter 611: Chapter 314: Mutated Race, The Inextinguishable Fire!_4

“Thank you, Boss Xu.” Song Xuan quickly jotted down what Xu Ran had just said and smiled as she spoke, “There’s no need for a discount, the information you’ve shared is so precious, how could I take advantage of you?”

“I just know a bit more, that’s all.” Xu Ran nonchalantly shook his head, not considering it a big deal.

After examining the health of the Flame Melting Turtles for a moment longer, Xu Ran followed Song Xuan into the next area where the Pet Beasts lived.

There, belonged to a species known as the Fire-tailed Bear.

The Fire-tailed Bear species, too, was a regular client at the Starfire Foster Care Shop.

In appearance, it was very similar to an ordinary bear except for its fur, which was flame-like in color. Its distinctive feature was its unique tail.

The tail of the Fire-tailed Bear consisted of an everlasting flame that burned tirelessly.

This flame clung closely to its fur but would never ignite it; it was a part of its body.

That was the origin of its name.

As Xu Ran entered the Fire-tailed Bears’ activity area following Song Xuan, he quickly saw several amiable Fire-tailed Bears.

Some were chewing on their favorite food, Fire Bamboo, with big bites. Others played lively games, full of vigor, bringing joy to those who saw them.

Not far from the Fire-tailed Bears, there were several Beast Masters ready to make their selections, and to Xu Ran’s surprise, he even spotted an acquaintance.

It was the father and son who had been in front of him when entering the base.

Once again, the conversation between the father and son drifted into his ears.

“These Fire-tailed Bears aren’t bad, right? I told you the Pet Beasts of Green Bud are quite good.” The father said with a smile, “How about we pick a Fire-tailed Bear to bond with?”

“They’re so-so, I guess; at least they seem better than the previous ones.” The young man, still a bit reluctant, had more interest in his eyes now.

These Fire-tailed Bears did seem quite normal.

However, before coming here, the young man had personally witnessed many abnormal behaviors of the Pet Beasts at Green Bud Base and was still somewhat cautious.

Who knows if these Fire-tailed Bears might suddenly have a crazy moment in the next second?

As the saying goes, fear brings about what one dreads.

The very next second, what he feared actually happened.

A Fire-tailed Bear that had just finished its Fire Bamboo lazily stood up from the ground, and then pressed its rear end against the rock behind it, twisting from side to side.

Its small tail, made entirely of fire, scorched back and forth on the rock, quickly leaving behind a deep black burn mark.

Seemingly influenced by this Fire-tailed Bear, the other bears put down what they were doing and found the nearest rock to start rubbing and twisting against as well.

This posture…

Seemed quite indecorous.

“Look at the burn marks on these rocks!” one of the Beast Masters suddenly pointed at the surrounding rocks and exclaimed softly.

The crowd looked over and belatedly realized that every rock around them bore similar horizontal scorch marks.

Previously they had thought it was caused by something else, but now it was clear that these marks had been burnt into the rocks by the Fire-tailed Bears’ fiery rears.

The Beast Masters, who had been so moved just moments ago, once again exhibited colorful expressions.

They found it hard to imagine how they might be laughed at and scorned by other Beast Masters if they were to contract one of these Fire-tailed Bears to take home.

“See, I told you the Pet Beasts from Green Bud have issues,” the young man who had yet to express his opinion exhaled with relief and then spread his hands out towards his father.

“Well…” The father was at a loss for words and could only shake his head, “Then let’s look at another one…”

“No need!” The young man waved his hand impatiently, “It would be better to check out the Wind and Cloud Base next door. Their Pet Beasts are all very impressive.”

“Okay,” the father nodded and followed his son towards the exit.

Soon, only Xu Ran, who spoke calmly, and Song Xuan, who was bent over taking notes, remained in the Fire-tailed Bear’s living area.
