That's why we choose to continue our b...After taking three rides on the suspended bus, ripples finally reached her rented place. Without mentioning the surrounding environment for now, when she opened the door, the room was so small it could only accommodate sleeping and washing up; there wasn't even a place to cook.

"Are you content The price I'm renting it to you at is still a discount, at least it's not across regions, otherwise it would be even more troublesome."

Xiao Liu immediately took over the room's network and promptly expressed his opinion.

"I know, it's just a temporary place, not that fancy. My goal is to get into First Academy."

The ripples' goal is very clear.

What shall we do first tomorrow

Xiao Liu, following Lian Yi's habit, ordered nutrient solution and then asked.

"Tomorrow we'll go to the Contract Department on Central Star."

After thinking for a moment, Lian Yi said.

"Okay, I'll plan the route. Is it to update data for Dodo"

"Well, that's one side of it. I also want to try my luck and see if I can contract a Star Beast."

Ripples lay in bed.

"Are you sure Now that you're an adult, if you want to try contracting a star beast, it won't be free anymore, it will cost money."

Xiao Liu immediately said.

"Who made my home planet W too small, not even eligible for a contract with a star beast. Lante is an agricultural planet after all, so it was truly lucky that I could contract Doudou there."

However, you should be clear about the abilities of Star Beasts. Maybe I really got lucky. After contracting a Star Beast, I'm even more certain to enter the First Academy.

The ripple analysis spoke.

"You're right about that. If we only go by the entrance exam scores, you don't have much of an advantage. Now, Duo Duo in the contract is only advantageous in cultivation. Although it seems like Duo Duo also has attack capabilities now, if you contract with a star beast, that would definitely be a plus."

Little Six immediately began conducting probability analysis and arrived at the same conclusion as Ripple.

"Since you put it that way, let's try our luck tomorrow."

Okay, let's leave early and try to be first in line.

Since entering the Central Star, Xiaoliu has become even more active. Lianyi can also understand each other's little thoughts. Anyway, the other party is her help now, she won't interfere too much for the time being. Of course, if Xiaoliu does something out of line, she has plenty of ways to deal with her.

The next morning, Ripples had her usual tube of nutrient solution, then took the levitating bus to the Contract Department on Central Star.

After arriving, Lian Yi looked at the high-tech buildings and sighed, "Central Star is really rich. Just one department occupies a 48-story building."

Ripples first introduced her purpose to the reception bio-mechanical robot and then retrieved her number before being escorted to the third floor to wait.

Although it wasn't first, because the robot was very efficient, Ripple's turn came an hour later.

"Dear Ms. He Lianyi, according to the initial inquiry, you wish to enter into a contract with a star beast"

"Yes."

"Based on your age, you need to pay for the star beast contract."

"I know."

"Well, based on your current financial situation, we don't recommend you enter into a Starbeast contract."

The robot patiently said.

"Why"

Because even if you spend money, you can't contract powerful star beasts, and raising star beasts afterwards is also a considerable expense, especially for powerful star beasts. Raising their combat effectiveness and growth all require spending Federal Credits.

Then can I contract a normal Star Beast

"That's also an option. There are ordinary star beasts without combat capabilities, but they can at most just keep you company. They won't be of much practical help to you."

The robot gave a standard smile and explained.

"I understand, I'm an orphan. I might as well find myself a companion."

Ripples smiled and said.

"Okay, I've recorded your request here. Please wait for your number call on the 16th floor."

Ok.

The ripples went to the sixteenth floor again.

In the waiting process, Xiao Liu helplessly said:

"If that's the case, then there's no need for you to contract a Star Beast. You wasted Federation credits."

Maybe I'm just lucky.

Ripples said confidently.

"Alright, if you're happy!"

Xiaoliu felt that Lianyi was too optimistic, but he didn't discourage her.

When it was her turn for the ripple, she paid another million Federation credits and was then asked by the staff to remove her neural implant bracelet and all personal belongings.

What kind of Stellar Beasts can I choose with my Federal Credits

Ripple asked curiously.

The staff member, now an ordinary human, explained patiently after seeing Ripples' message and knowing she came from a remote planet:

"The Star Beasts aren't raised by the Federation; they gather in colonies scattered across the cosmos. The fees we charge are actually to open space channels."

The spatial channel you purchased with your payment leads to a relatively peaceful star beast habitat. Once you release your mental energy, if any star beasts are willing to form a contract with you, they will come through the spatial channel. If not, the channel will automatically close after a period of time.

"So that means the federation credits paid are for connections to more distant, stronger star beast clusters"

The ripples asked.

"Yes, but generally high-level star beasts in contracts require a very high level of mental power, otherwise they cannot suppress the star beast. The star beast will not listen obediently, especially the stronger the star beast is, the more arrogant it becomes."

"Instead, you chose this more peaceful type of star beasts, and the contract rate is higher."

"That's good, at least I won't waste my federal dollars."

The ripple said with satisfaction.

Why can't you bring in a smart brain band

"Opening a spatial channel will change the magnetic field within the room, which can be detrimental to the Smartwatch."

Staff members have been asked a lot of questions about ripples, but they patiently explained them all.

"I understand, thank you!"

After the ripples were clarified, he entered a special room according to the staff's guidance, and then the staff activated the isolation device and opened the spatial channel.

The ripples, following the instructions, released their psychic energy and then traveled through the channel to reach the gathering place of star beasts on the other side.

Because Ripple's psychic power was too overwhelming, those gentle-natured star beasts all avoided her from afar. This left Ripple feeling a bit down. Although she hadn't intended to contract a star beast in the first place, being shunned was another matter entirely.

Right before the tunnel closed, a black kitten appeared in front of Lianyi. Its golden eyes were full of joy as it jumped directly into Lianyi's arms and rubbed its head against Lianyi's chin.

The staff member let out a sigh of relief after seeing this, he thought the other party would fail to make a pact. If that were the case, it would slap him in the face for his previous explanation.

Congratulations to Ms. He Lianyi, you have now successfully contracted a star beast. Please register here.

Okay.

Ripples had a smile on her face and went to register with the black cat in her arms.

An hour later, Ripple left the Contract Department building with Whirlwind. Now, Whirlwind was also a legitimate Federation Star Beast.e everyone out, and then began to talk about her youngest daughter's illness."How could it be so serious You wrote to me before, saying that your daughter's condition was improving.
