Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree-Chapter 215 - 209 Magic Pet Fever
Chapter 215: Chapter 209 Magic Pet Fever
Eve extended an olive branch to the Unicorn while simultaneously directing half of her consciousness back to her main body to adjust the game system.
She did not directly use her Divine Soul to establish a contract with the Unicorn.
Instead, as she had planned, she utilized the game system to replace her Divine Soul, creating a coordinate of her consciousness within the system.
Of course, if the consciousness coordinate could materialize, it would pinpoint exactly to the World Tree in the core area of Elf Forest!
And after Eve expressed her desire to establish a contract, the Unicorn eagerly released its Magic Power, not waiting for her preparation.
It lowered its head, revealing its sharp horn, actively activating the equal contract, waiting for Eve to leave her mark.
Eve, following Alice’s reminder, bit her finger and smeared her blood on its spiral horn.
This was a necessary process for mundane creatures to establish a contract.
*Without breaking into the legendary rank, mundane creatures cannot let their Soul Power leave their body and can only rely on some medium to align the contract with their soul.*
Her own blood was a great choice.
And Eve’s modification of the contract process was to transfer the alignment target from the soul to the game system.
The entire process went smoother than Eve anticipated, and under her guidance, the Unicorn quickly established a contract with her.
No, to be more precise, the contract was successfully established with the consciousness coordinate she left in the game system.
This also meant that Eve’s concept for the Magic Pet System was entirely feasible!
*Thrilled at heart,* Eve immediately divided her attention to control her main body, channeling Divine Power to connect the original mount system with the contract system and further optimize it…
The computing power of a True God’s Divine Soul was quite formidable, and in just a few seconds, Eve restructured the game system based on her memory of the Magic Pet System in online games.
In the view of her avatar, the information about the Unicorn seamlessly integrated into the game system!
Everything went smoothly.
In the view of other players, the Unicorn now had an attribute card similar to an elf NPC, named “Wind’s Unicorn Companion”!
Moreover, the system even gave the Unicorn a purple frame, categorizing it as a purple epic Magic Pet.
Strictly speaking, the strength of the Unicorns among Demon Beasts wasn’t particularly formidable.
But once contracted, they were extremely loyal and had high growth potential with the possibility of breaking into the Golden Rank, not to mention being a rare healing type Demon Beast.
Besides, they looked stunning!
*Appearance equated to justice!*
So… giving it a purple epic rating wasn’t an exaggeration.
“The contract really worked!”
“Awesome, awesome!”
“It even has a rarity assessment? Purple epic level!”
The players watching were quite envious as they looked at the Unicorn, which now possessed its own status bar.

Feeling a flutter in her heart, Eve had a new system message suddenly float across all players’ screens.
[Ding——]
[Player “Wind” has signed a contract with a Unicorn, becoming the first player to have a Unicorn companion]
[Ding——]
[Activation condition fulfilled, the mount system has been upgraded to the Magic Pet System, and the Magic Pet Contract System is officially open!]
[Demon Beast: The information of Unicorn has been added to the Magic Pet Data]
Seeing the new system message, players were momentarily stunned and then instinctively checked their game systems.
Sure enough, everyone’s system interface had changed the original mount system into the Magic Pet System.
In addition, the system now had two more buttons, one for applying a contract to propose a contract to a Demon Beast, and the other for accepting a contract to accept the contract offered by a Demon Beast.
Of course, the precondition for these buttons to work was that the Demon Beast had already acknowledged the player, and the player needed to smear their blood on the Demon Beast.
However, each player initially only had one Magic Pet slot.
Eve was concerned that without a quota, players might randomly contract a bunch of weak Demon Beasts, preventing her from efficiently managing resources and consuming energy to connect with Demon Beasts…
Consequently, Eve also planned to release “Magic Pet Slot” exchange cards in the store, requiring players to use their contribution to gain more slots.
Additionally, the Magic Pet System included a section for Magic Pet data.
When players clicked in, they could see details of Demon Beasts already tamed by players.
For now, there was only one kind—Unicorns.
The data for Unicorns had been filled out based on Alice’s description during the contract signing.
At the bottom of the data, a small line annotated “Data Provider—Wind”.
In reality, the World Tree legacy Eve possessed contained far more information about Unicorns than what Alice narrated.
*However, as her current identity was that of a player, she did not provide comprehensive details willingly.*
*She had already decided to establish the Magic Pet data section akin to an encyclopedia, intending to spur players’ enthusiasm.*
The players were quite curious and excited upon seeing the new Magic Pet system.
Li Mu, who owned an Earth Cave Spider mount, discovered that his Earth Cave Spider had also been incorporated into the Magic Pet system.
However, his Earth Cave Spider did not have an attribute card like Wind’s Unicorn.
Furthermore, in the system, his Earth Cave Spider was marked with an “Uncontracted” status.
Feeling a spark of insight, Li Mu looked at his Earth Cave Spider.
He used [Nature’s Whisper] and asked:
“Do you want to establish a contract with me?”
The Earth Cave Spider bowed slightly.
Overjoyed, Li Mu quickly followed the prompts in the Magic Pet System, biting his finger and smearing the blood onto the Earth Cave Spider’s carapace.
Simultaneously, he activated the contract application button.
The contract process went smoothly.
Before long, Li Mu felt a certain link form between himself and the Earth Cave Spider, and the uncontracted status of the Earth Cave Spider vanished as well.
[Ding——]
[Player “Li Mu” has signed a contract with Earth Cave Spider (Offspring), becoming the first player to have an Earth Cave Spider (Offspring) companion]
[Demon Beast: The information of Earth Cave Spider has been added to the Magic Pet Data]
Two more messages flashed across the screens of all players.
Meanwhile, Li Mu realized he gained the authority to edit the [Earth Cave Spider] entry.
Moreover, after establishing a contract, his Earth Cave Spider also had an attribute card similar to the one possessed by Wind’s Unicorn!
Li Mu was delighted to discover that he could view the detailed state of his Earth Cave Spider via the attribute card and the Magic Pet System!
Besides, he could effectively command the Demon Beast through the system!
For example, summoning the Earth Cave Spider from a distance to his side, instructing it to transport some goods for him, or assisting him in battle.
Moreover, as the Earth Cave Spider’s strength increased, Li Mu would receive certain feedback, and his personal upgrades would similarly help bolster the Earth Cave Spider’s power!
*This was immensely superior to having just a mount in the beginning!*
However, one small disappointment was that the Earth Cave Spider’s status card was merely blue-framed, rated as a blue rare.
But considering the Earth Cave Spider was merely an offspring of the Spider Queen Rose, Li Mu let go of his concerns.
As noted by Black Dragon Mairrel, these small spiders didn’t even have complete souls; their lives were entirely bound to the mother queen.
*In this light, achieving a rare blue rating also underscored the impressiveness of the larger Earth Cave Spiders.*
The system rated the potential of the Earth Cave Spider (Offspring) to be Silver Upper.
In other words, the highest growth it could achieve would be at the Silver Upper level.
For the current players, this already represented terrifying strength…
…
The sudden emergence of the Magic Pet function quickly captivated the interest of the players.
Especially the veteran players without significant progress in their advancements!
Many began researching this upgraded “mount system.”
Eve, having contracted with the Unicorn, logged off hastily under the excuse of having real-world matters to avoid the players’ enthusiastic “siege.”
As for Little Unicorn, it was entrusted to Little Xian Miao, left to roam in the Mengmeng Committee’s guild garden…
In the following days, Eve witnessed firsthand the players’ enthusiasm for Magic Pets.
The contentious debates surrounding the resurrection mechanism on the official forum abruptly died down, replaced by heated discussions concerning the Magic Pet System.
Some discussed Demon Beast types, others analyzed their abilities, debated methods to gain a Demon Beast’s recognition, and pondered which Demon Beast might be best suited as a Magic Pet, and so on, and so forth…
In merely three game days, Eve noticed that the game system registered over a thousand new Magic Pet contracts!
The variety of contracted Demon Beasts was quite diverse, although most originated from the Elf Forest.
These Demon Beasts, whether tempted or subdued by players, ranged from simply adorable to powerfully strong, and some possessed special abilities…
Mountain Rats, Wind Deer, Black Headed Eagles, Giant Bears… nearly all the common species in Elf Forest were tamed.
Their strength ranged from the weakest apprentice level to the strongest Black Iron Upper, with everything in between.
Of course, Black Iron Upper was rare, either large Earth Cave Spiders or Black Iron Demon Beasts subdued in joint attacks by players in the wild.
However, the majority of Demon Beasts had white common status bars, and even blue rare ones were considerably scarce, with the purple epic rating belonging solely to the Unicorn…
Under such circumstances, a large number of veteran players withdrew from the Underworld, heading north of Elf Forest in search of Unicorn traces.
There was no help for it; the allure of Unicorns as the only Magic Pet currently rated as a purple epic was too great.
Whether for the sake of showing off or enhancing their strength, owning a Unicorn was every player’s dream.
Unfortunately, the players’ attempts did not proceed smoothly.
The Unicorns ran too swiftly for players and naturally far surpassed them in strength. Although spotted occasionally in the forest, they were impossible to catch up with.
Additionally, heedful of Alice’s reminder, players understood that Unicorns yielded to gentleness, not force, making their subjugation without employing force even tougher.
In comparison, the progress of the Mengmeng Committee was slightly more productive.
Through Little Unicorn, which Eve left behind, they managed to locate the migrating group in the northern forest after two days…
However, those Unicorns remained highly wary of players; even with Little Unicorn leading, they were indifferent to most players’ friendly gestures.
This led players to once again remark on the extraordinary luck of the female player, who first gained the Unicorn’s recognition.
*She must have been blessed by the Luck King himself! Envy, jealousy, and resentment…*
Nevertheless, discovering the migrating group gave players a target.
The rest depended on time and patience.
Someone succeeded in taming a Unicorn, demonstrating that these creatures could indeed accept players.
With such a mindset, many veteran players chose to stay in the forest alongside the Unicorns, humbling themselves to become admirers, doing their utmost to curry favor, hoping for acknowledgment…
The spectacle even made Eve, observing through the player’s perspective, avert her eyes in embarrassment.
As scores of players racked their brains to devise methods to tame Unicorns, the Fiery Flame Elves, who had been out searching for their kin, also gradually returned.
