The Charm of Soul Pets

C6: Trapping and Capturing a Soul Pet

His entire body was covered in bloodstains, and Chu Mu didn’t dare do anything else too extreme. After all, myriads of Soul Pets had extremely acute senses of smell; for example, the terrifying and savage Hunting Wolf.

The Hunting Wolf’s rank was High and it was even slightly stronger than the Mandy Monster. As long as someone managed to obtain one, even if its aptitude was average, once it reached at least the 7th stage, the person could definitely enter the top ten .

As for the inferior Bramble Demon, even if it reached the Ninth stage, it most likely would still have problems defeating a seventh stage high ranking Hunting Wolf.

Chu Mu found a hidden region and rested there for a day while he spent the time treating his own wounds.

The effects of the healing medicine were remarkable and Chu Mu was soon able to stand up.

On the third day, Chu Mu had finally, truly, entered the inner island. Chu Mu continued to walk forward with particular caution. If he were to encounter any Soul Pet en route, it would be much more terrifying than any of the foremen’s Hunting Wolves. If he were to capture such a Soul Pet, he would definitely be able to sweep away his opponents.

However, these Soul Pets were all incomparably savage, so before capturing one, Chu Mu didn’t even dare to closely approach one.

“Double Headed Snake, Gulan Nisi, Fire Fox, Ten Legged Poison Centipede, Macaque Demon… alas, I can’t approach any one of them. They are all above the seventh stage…”

Hiding on a tree, watching the Soul Pets walking under the tree today, Chu Mu would incessantly let out a bitter laugh.The ranking of these Soul Pets were mostly High or Medium. Unfortunately, Chu Mu could only watch helplessly as the rope trap in his hands was never actually triggered.

A trap was currently Chu Mu’s only method of dealing with Soul Pets stronger than him.

However, Chu Mu’s handmade trap was only limited to high level Soul Pets of the third stage and under. Just now, all of them had pretty much been at a level higher than that of the seventh stage, and had strength that could rival the Hunting Wolves. Chu Mu’s shabby trap would not be able to contain these ferocious monsters.

Patience...Chu Mu needed to have utmost patience.

“That’s weird, how could there be such a weak Soul Pet wandering about here?”

Suddenly, a weak and small Soul Pet appeared in Chu Mu’s field of vision. According to Chu Mu’s estimate, it was most likely at the first stage.

This small animal had beautiful reddish brown fur and had a gorgeous fox-like tail; its body was clearly somewhat small and exquisite. This young fox had evidently been drawn to Chu Mu’s trap by the food that lay there. Looking at its appearance, it had also sustained an injury as it cautiously hobbled over and reached for the food on the trap.

“Reddish brown fur… It should be a Red Cloud Fox… It’s forehead has a silver crescent moon imprint… Weird, isn’t this an imprint only Silver Moon Foxes possess? Could it be that this young animal is a mixed breed?” Chu Mu softly muttered to himself.

Chu Mu didn’t trigger the trap. Despite this small animal truly being at a relatively low stage, its ranking was very low. No matter if it was a Red Cloud Fox or a Silver Moon Fox, they were both of lower rankings.

This sort of a Soul Pet couldn’t be considered a battle Soul Pet. In major cities, they normally would become small house pets for girls to cuddle with as they slept.

Chu Mu renounced triggering the trap and waited for the small half-breed to take the food, before dropping another piece of food onto the trap with the rope. He continued to wait...
