Pet Contract, Saving the Mammoth

Andrew directly transformed into his Giant Bear Form and roared!

"ROAR!!!"

The terrifying sound waves echoed through the canyon.

The group of Rangers stopped their attacks and looked up in confusion.

"What is that?"

"It looks like a white bear, and other humans?"

Meanwhile.

Assam, riding a Frost Wolf, had already charged in front of the group of Rangers.

"Enemy! Stop him!" the Elite Ranger shouted.

The other Rangers entered combat mode, and five or six immediately rushed forward to surround Assam.

Assam took the lead, facing enemies several times his number without fear, and drew his sword.

Swish! Swish-swish!

-372

-243

-354

-271

He wielded Frost Wolf Swordplay with great power, while the Frost Wolf beneath him continuously clawed and swiped, sending the Rangers flying.

Bang! Bang-bang!

Seeing his companions sent flying, the Elite Ranger knew this was a tough opponent.

He ordered, "All together, capture this guy and present him to the Leader!"

And just then.

On the other side of the canyon.

Three robots slid down a steep slope.

Rumble!

The sound of roaring machines could be heard.

"Hmm? More reinforcements?"

The Elite Ranger's expression changed in surprise.

At that moment, he suddenly felt a chill on the back of his neck.

A sense of mortal danger enveloped him.

Sarah had, at some point, moved behind the Elite Ranger.

The Shadow Blade was extended silently.

-1764!

A terrifying amount of damage appeared.

The Elite Ranger felt a horrific wound open on his back.

"Hiss! What kind of attack is this?"

The Elite Ranger gasped, trying to escape.

But the shadow behind him clung on like a leech.

Enemies targeted by Sarah had no chance of escape.

Meanwhile, Andrew, as a ferocious Giant Bear, was swatting and tearing apart the Rangers next to the mammoth one by one.

Your Territory member: Andrew has killed Ranger Lv8, gaining 80 Experience Points. Combatants gain 40 Experience Points. Your Territory member: Assam has killed Ranger Lv7, gaining 70 Experience Points. Combatants gain 35 Experience Points.

Notifications for Experience Points gained kept coming.

Cao Xing stood above the canyon, quietly watching the battle below.

This situation did not require him to act.

"What's the difference if you, a weakling, act or not?"

Two minutes later.

The battle was drawing to a close.

On the battlefield below, only a few remaining Rangers were struggling to hold on.

"Let's go, Muxue. We should go down too."

After speaking, Cao Xing and Liu Muxue jumped down from the tracked robot's back together.

Leaving the tracked robot on the canyon above, he slowly slid down with Liu Muxue.

By the time he got down, the battle was already over.

Sarah had finished off the level 15 Elite Ranger with a single strike.

A system prompt appeared.

Territory Member: Sarah Blade Dance has killed Elite Ranger Lv15, gaining 450 Experience Points.

You have gained Experience Points: 225. At the same time, a white light rose from Cao Xing's body.

Your level has been increased. Current Level: 6. This level-up granted: Strength +1, Agility +2, Spirit +4, Constitution +2.

Cao Xing felt a surge of magical power within him once more.

Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction, then directly gave the order: "Assam, Sarah, clean up the battlefield."

"Andrew, come with me."

The bloodlust in Andrew's eyes gradually faded. The recent slaughter had turned him into a complete beast.

A moment later, a look of devotion reappeared in his eyes.

At this moment, Andrew respectfully followed Cao Xing's side, and together they approached the Icefield Mammoth.

Cao Xing glanced at the mammoth's current condition.

Icefield Mammoth Health: 1104/15023 Status: Bleed, Fracture, Poisoned, Near Death

With a host of negative status effects, the Icefield Mammoth was in a dire state, on the verge of death.

Furthermore, due to bleeding and poisoning, its health was continuously draining.

Purple numbers like -5 and -6 continuously popped up above its head.

Cao Xing frowned, "This mammoth is too heavily injured, it's a bit troublesome."

Liu Muxue unconsciously clenched her fists, her face filled with concern.

"Ooooh--"

The mammoth lay on the ground, emitting a weak, mournful cry.

It seemed to know that its end was near.

Andrew approached with a look of pity and gently stroked the mammoth's head.

"Poor child..."

Andrew turned around, looking at Cao Xing with a pleading gaze, "Lord, do you have a way to save this mammoth?"

Cao Xing didn't answer but tried casting Ice Healing Technique on the mammoth.

A system prompt appeared.

Cannot cast healing skills on non-ally units.

Cao Xing frowned slightly, then shook his head, "Andrew, my power can only be used on my own citizens; I cannot use it to save the mammoth."

Hearing this, a flicker of despair flashed in Andrew's eyes, "How could this be..."

Damage numbers continued to appear above the mammoth's head on the ground, and its health was already dropping below 1000.

Andrew sighed.

He knew there was nothing more he could do, only accompany the mammoth through the final moments of its life.

"Ooo... ooo..."

The mammoth's breathing grew weaker.

At this moment, Cao Xing seemed to recall something.

When he killed the large spider earlier, the system had given him a Pet Contract.

He wondered if it could be used on a powerful creature like this mammoth.

If it could, and the mammoth became an ally, he should be able to heal it, right?

With this thought, Cao Xing decided to try.

"Andrew, can you communicate with it?"

Andrew looked up and replied, "Lord, I can have simple conversations with it."

Cao Xing nodded, "Good, communicate with it and ask if it's willing to become my pet and sign a Pet Contract with me."

"Only by becoming my pet can I offer it aid."

Andrew was stunned for a moment, then, as if seeing a glimmer of hope, he said excitedly, "I will do my best to persuade this child."

The mammoth tribe was powerful and proud.

In Andrew's memory, only a few warriors had managed to tame such creatures.

Mammoths would rather die than submit to other beings.

But now, to keep it alive, Andrew could only try his best to persuade it.

Andrew placed his bear paw on the mammoth's body, uttering some peculiar syllables.

The mammoth painstakingly turned its pupils, looking at Cao Xing, then at Andrew.

It seemed to be making some difficult decision as well.

A moment later, it let out a low whimper.

"Wuwu..."

The next second, joy immediately appeared in Andrew's eyes.
