Chapter 1095

It was General Ji Xia and Karro's first time drinking milk tea, and they were nearly drowning in its deliciousness. According to Karro, this milk tea shop seemed to have only just opened in Beast Pen City recently; not many people knew about it, but there were plenty of repeat customers, and business had always been booming. He had long wanted to try it, but unfortunately it cost 20 silver coins a cup, which he truly couldn't afford.

General Ji Xia also sighed with feeling — who would have thought such a delicious drink existed in the world? Why didn't this milk tea shop open in Yongjicheng? Otherwise she would definitely patronize it every day.

Lin Cheng and Miss Qianhui merely smiled at this and let it pass.

What General Ji Xia didn't know was that the true inventor of milk tea was right in front of her — if she wanted to drink milk tea, she could have it anytime, anywhere.

Battle Pet Street — the group walked along drinking milk tea and chatting about battle pets, and soon arrived at their destination.

"We're here," Karro reminded them.

By now it was already evening, yet Battle Pet Street was still bustling with people — men and women alike — each one holding a small, cute battle pet, or leading a tall, mighty battle pet, with faces showing either doting affection or excitement, as they came out of the battle pet shops.

Women mainly favored feline-type battle pets — their petite bodies, adorable cries, and sleek fur made them irresistible; men, on the other hand, preferred tall, imposing canine-types, and walking them down the street filled them with a special sense of pride.

This scene suddenly made Lin Cheng feel that battle pets seemed no different from modern-day pets — it was just that on the Otherworld Continent, battle pets sometimes had to double as combat assistants.

But within the city, there was probably little need for battle pets to engage in combat, after all, fighting was not permitted inside the city.

"Karro, do you have any shop you'd recommend? We'd also like to find a battle pet we fancy."

"How about Fei Lie Shop? Their main line is black-types, but they have plenty of other kinds of battle pets too — let's go take a look."

"Welcome to Fei Lie Shop. Is there anything I can help you with?"

The moment they stepped over Fei Lie Shop's threshold, a service girl with a shapely figure and a smiling face immediately came swaying up to greet them, twisting her waist.

"Take us to see the battle pets — any recommendations?" Lin Cheng's expression didn't change, his tone utterly flat, secretly regretting not having brought his sunglasses along.

"Of course, please follow me. Do you prefer non-combat battle pets, or combat-type battle pets?"

"Combat-type battle pets."

Lin Cheng glanced at Miss Qianhui beside him, who was looking slightly excited, the corners of his mouth curving into a gentle smile, and then he put on his sunglasses.

The service girl also noticed the gentle look Lin Cheng gave Miss Qianhui before putting on his sunglasses, and her smile grew even more charming — in her heart she was already eighty or ninety percent sure she had guessed this customer's intentions.

Picking out a suitable battle pet for the woman he loved — that was a big sale. She had to seize the chance. As for the two people behind him, they were probably bodyguards and a tour guide, she figured, and at the thought, the service girl's voice turned even sweeter.

"Our Fei Lie Shop's best-selling battle pet is the Black Hound, but it doesn't seem quite suitable for this lady. I recommend some adorable ones that also have decent combat ability — feline-types."

"That's fine." Lin Cheng nodded with a feigned solemn air, his gaze already wandering over the other young ladies in Fei Lie Shop.

One had to admit, the young ladies inside Fei Lie Shop had excellent figures and faces, and a few of the young men alone were also quite handsome — no wonder business was so booming.

Humans really were visual creatures — whether male or female, it was the same.......

He had decided! The blacksmith shop he opened in Boulder Fortress City must have female attendants inside, and they had to be the kind with first-class figures and faces.

"Please follow me."

The service girl led Lin Cheng and the others to the feline-type battle pet area. In exquisitely decorated display cases lived one cute creature after another — some were dozing, some were eating food, and a few lively ones were even staring with adorable, sparkling eyes, curiously looking at them.

Miss Qianhui stretched out a finger and pressed it against the glass of one display case. Inside was a snow-white-furred cat; it had originally been grooming itself, but the moment Miss Qianhui's finger pressed against the case, it was immediately drawn over, stretched out a paw, and tried to grab Miss Qianhui's finger pressed against the glass — but no matter how it tried, it couldn't reach her finger, and could only keep scratching at the glass, looking utterly silly and adorable.

"Hahaha, Lin Cheng, it's so cute!"

"Yeah, silly and dopey."

The service girl immediately launched into an enthusiastic introduction.

"This is a Snow Cat, a feline-type battle pet that lives in snowy-plain environments. It's medium-sized, extremely sensitive to its surroundings, possesses considerable hunting and combat ability, and its snow-white coat is very beautiful. It has an intelligence level roughly equivalent to a human child of seven or eight years old. If you begin training from its juvenile stage, it only takes half a year to grow into a battle pet with a certain level of combat power."

"So this little fellow is a Snow Cat, haha, it really doesn't look very smart." Upon learning it was a Snow Cat, Miss Qianhui teased it even more.

She had assumed the young lady before her would like the snow-white Snow Cat, but after playing with it for a while, Miss Qianhui lost interest, feeling that its intelligence level had not met her expectations.
