2 Strength Skill Level 1

  " FUCK, that hurts! You just bit me ! " 

Liu Yong jolted by the pain and involuntarily released his grip, quickly withdrawing his hand. On the back of it was a tiny yet deep bite wound, with the skin broken and blood trickling out.

  *** A FUCKING BIG MISTAKE !!! *** 

Liu Yong felt deep regret, realizing that keeping this snapping turtle was not a good idea. It consumed a lot of food and tended to bite people, making it unsuitable as a pet.

He didn't notice that the little blood stain on the snapping turtle's mouth disappeared quickly.

Liu Yong inspected his injury, first wiping it with a paper towel and then covering it with a band-aid. He decided not to go to the hospital as the wound was not severe, and more importantly, he wanted to save his remaining funds as he didn't want to waste the money on going to the hospital and doing a check-up.

  " What is this? " 

Liu Yong shouted out of surprise. 

To Liu Yongs' surprise, It was a panel that appeared to be of extraterrestrial technology that came from space and belonged to some aliens. At first, he thought it was a trick of his eyes, but he found it real upon further examination.

  " Could this be my golden finger? "  Liu Yong thought in his mind.

After a while, Liu Yong studied the panel intently.

The most prominent feature was a lifelike, highly detailed image of the snapping turtle. In addition to the pictures are the attributes and skills of a snapping turtle, which he had recently bought from an older man.

Pet type: MUTANT SNAPPING TURTLE.

- - - Strength: III - - -

- - - Constitution: II - - -

- - - Dexterity: I - - -

Speed ​​per hour in water: 5 kilometres

Weight: 282 grams

Skills: Level 1 Tortoise Shell Art (Passive), Level 1 Tortoise Breathing Art

Upon going through the description on the panel, Liu Yong was initially shocked and soon broke out into excitement.

He was amazed that this small snapping turtle was so unique and mutated. At the same time, he felt overjoyed, just like a blessing with a lucky break from the heavens. He never expected to get such a thing as a "golden finger!"

Liu Yong carefully examined the panel and noticed that there were sharing buttons located behind each of the three attributes of "Strength," "Physique," and "Agility." These buttons indicated that the values associated with these attributes could be shared or transferred with anyone.

Specifically, the owner can share attributes and skills with the snapping turtle.

  " It is a bit against the sky! "  Liu Yong said.

Liu Yong speculated that the snapping turtle could grow and develop, and as a result, its attributes and skills would also increase. He believed snapping turtle would become even more powerful and impressive over time.

The snapping turtle was still small, and its attributes were not particularly strong. Liu Yong decided to hold off on sharing the skills of a turtle for the time being, but he was eager to share its two skills as they were valuable and exciting.

Liu Yong clicked the "share" button behind the two skills, "Turtle Breath" and "Turtle Shell."

Almost instantly, a wealth of information flooded his mind.

Within a short time, Liu Yong had fully mastered these two skills. The passive skill of "Turtle Shell Art", which could significantly improve his defensive capabilities, and "Turtle Breath Art",  which could help him in terms of Breathing for more extended periods either on the land or under the oceans and seas like those of aquatic animals.

In other words, after mastering the "Turtle Breathing Technique," Liu Yong could hold his breath for extended periods, but the exact duration still needed to be determined through testing.

Further, Liu Yong found that he had established an incredible connection with the snapping turtle, where he could communicate with the snapping turtle through his mind.

  " I AM SORRY, MASTER, FOR BITING YOU JUST NOW " 

Liu Yong suddenly heard it in his mind.

He was pleasantly surprised again, for the turtle could speak with him through the mind. After attempting communication, he discovered that the snapping turtle's intelligence was relatively limited as of now, comparable to that of a three-year-old child.

Although the turtles' intelligence level was limited for the current, Liu Yong was optimistic. He believed that as the snapping turtle grew, its intelligence would improve and eventually reach the adult level. He had a hopeful prospect, and Liu Yong was eager to see the growth and development of his newfound companion.

Liu Yong decided to keep the snapping turtle for the time being. He was looking forward to seeing its growth and development as it matured.

That night, the snapping turtle sent a message to Liu Yong:

  "Master, I am hungry. Can you please provide me with more fish? " 

Liu Yong replied to the snapping turtle,

  " You sure are a foodie! You already ate a few small fish this afternoon. Are you still hungry? " 

  "Master, I'm hungry. " 

Liu Yong agreed,

  "Okay, I'll give you all these small fish. That's it for tonight. We'll have to wait until tomorrow for more." 

  " Yes, yes." 

The little snapping turtle quickly and happily agreed, seeing the delicious little fish approaching it.

Instead of feeding them individually, Liu Yong poured the remaining four or five small fish into the bucket, and the little snapping turtle immediately ate them ferociously. 

Liu Yong thought he couldn't keep it home if it could eat so much food.

Liu Yong changed the water for the snapping turtle after it finished eating. For the snapping turtle could communicate appropriately with Liu Yong, it didn't dare to bite him anymore.

  " Stay here, don't run around." 

Liu Yong said to the turtle.

The little snapping turtle listened to Liu Yong, stayed there, and did not run around.

Worrying about his future, Liu Yong woke up early the next day thinking about whether to search for new employment. Without work and an income, he realized he couldn't survive in the bustling metropolis of Huahai.

Suddenly, the little snapping turtle took the initiative to send a message,

  " Master, I'm hungry; I'm starving to death." 

  " This foodie, you ate so much fish last night. It's only been few hours then, and you're hungry again." 

Liu Yong said it out of frustration.

After some time, Liu Yong was surprised when he opened the pet panel.

The attributes of the snapping turtle have increased to a certain extent, each by 1 or 2 points. What surprised Liu Yong was the weight of the snapping turtle. It was 282 grams yesterday, but now it is 422 grams.

  " I GREW MORE THAN 100 GRAMS IN ONE NIGHT!! "  The turtle said to Liu Yong.

After hearing it, Liu Yong hastily went to the bucket to look. The little snapping turtle had become more gigantic than yesterday.

  " It's so foodie, and it grows fast! " 

Liu Yong had a glimpse of thought in his mind.

Since It could no longer be fed at home as it eats a lot and the size increases with the flow, he thought it should be shifted outside of the house. 

When it grows to several kilograms, it is estimated that it will cost tens of dollars a day to feed it.

  " I can't afford it, definitely can't afford it! "  Liu seriously thought.

Moreover, with such a growth rate, the bucket will not be able to hold it within two days. So Liu Yong decided to put it outside to be self-reliant.

  " Little snapping turtle, I'll find you a big place where you can swim freely and have a lot of fish and shrimp. Do you like such a place? " 

Liu Yong asked the turtle.

" I like it! I like it! I like it so much! " 

The foodie turtle replied immediately. 

Liu Yong thought in his heart that the little snapping turtle was just a fool, so he could finally release it with confidence.

Therefore, Liu Yong carried the little snapping turtle in a net bag and went out.

Liu Yong had already considered the place, so there was nothing to be confused or worried about, and the place was near the park.

The park is small, but there is a famous lake in the park. It is that the lake is bottomless and leads to an underground river.

The water quality looks outstanding. If you hold a handful of water, you will find that the water in the palm of your hand is vividly clear.

Because the water is relatively deep and dark in the centre, this lake is known as

  " Ink Lake " 

Taking the little snapping turtle out of the net pocket, Liu Yong said:

  " This is your new home where you will live here for a short duration. " 

The little snapping turtle was happy when it entered the water, as it was more than ten thousand times better than staying in a plastic bucket.

  " I like this place so much, Master; goodbye! "  the turtle happily said.

That said, the little snapping turtle happily swam away and disappeared soon.

Suddenly, Liu Yong felt a little bit worried and thought: 

  " I am again worried about whether the little snapping turtle will not be in danger here. "
