'Three possible evolution routes?'

Lucas was surprised to see there were three possible evolution methods for a normal spirit beast like orange-eared spirit lynx.

"Young master, looks like you have finally got a lynx. Congratulations."

Beck saw how much Lucas wanted a lynx for the last two weeks. So, when she saw the docile lynx sitting in front of Lucas, she congratulated him.

"Thank you."

He nodded his head before asking, "I am checking its information. Give me a moment."

As a system hostess, she knew what Lucas was telling. So, she silently waited at the side.

'Open'

Lucas focused on the last section on the holographic screen to get more information on the evolution routes of the lynx.

'Ding,

            First evolution route:- [Lightning spirit lynx]

            Required ingredients:- Heart of any rank 4 lightning type spirit beast, one liter of blood and beast core from the same type of spirit beast, a low-level spirit stone (Lightning element).

'Ding, 

          Second evolution route:- [Flaming spirit lynx]

          Required ingredients:- Same ingredients as above; however, instead of a lightning element, the ingredients should be a fire element.

'Ding,

          Third evolution route:- [White-eyed spirit lynx]

          Required ingredients:- One rank 4 beast soul, a small branch of witch tree, the blood of rank 4 or higher spirit beasts from five different elemental spirit beasts.

As soon as he focused on the three possible evolution routes, the system gave a simple explanation regarding those three evolution routes.

'Holy heaves! Where should I find a lightning spirit stone?'

Lucas carefully read the ingredients required for the evolution into [Lightning spirit lynx] and shook his head for a moment; however, he was not worried that much regarding the stone.

'As for the second evolution method of evolving the lynx into a Flaming spirit lynx can be done right now.'

Since Lucas already had the required ingredients, Lucas felt like trying out the evolution method.

'However, compared to flaming spirit lynx, lightning spirit lynx is not only good at fighting but it has an incredible speed in its rank.'

'Nevertheless, I don't know what this white-eyed sprint lynx can do.'

Among the three possible evolution routes, Lucas never heard of the third spirit beast name. So, he wondered about it.

'That's right! I can ask Beck about it.'

Judging from the ingredients required for the third evolution route, Lucas could tell it was some kind of special evolution. So, he didn't want to take the decision before knowing about it.

"Beck, can you check the information on white-eyed spirit lynx?"

Since Beck has a beast encyclopedia in her possession, Lucas asked for her help.

"Huh?"

Beck didn't understand why Lucas was asking her about a spirit beast all of a sudden; however, she summoned a huge grimoire and checked the information about the white-eyed spirit lynx.

"Young master, how do you know about it? It is pretty much an extinct spirit beast as it was hunted by humans for its eyes that see through everything."

It didn't take much time for Beck to finish checking the details on the spirit beast and she was surprised for a moment before explaining to Lucas about it.

"According to encyclopedia, you can replace one of your eyes with the spirit beast to gain that ability."

"Ability to see through anything? That's some good ability."

Lucas nodded his head as he checked the ingredients; however, they were a little difficult to get unless he started trading with the merchants from other towns and cities.

'I am not in a hurry to evolve this lynx. Anyway, I caught this one to lure more lynx type spirit beasts. So, it is finally time to lure them.'

When he thought about it, Lucas closed all the holographic screens in front of him and came out of the cave along with Beck.

"Let's go to the Earl grounds."

Even though Lucas didn't know the radius of the special beast luring potion's effect, he was going to use it only in the Earl grounds.

Because there were almost no lynx type spirit beasts and he didn't want to waste the potion.

After an hour or so, Lucas and others reached the outer periphery of the Earl grounds; however, they didn't stop as they continued to enter deeper with the Phantom eagle as their scout, who helped them to avoid rank 5 spirit beasts.

"Beck, summon all your spirit beasts and order them to hide and you also do the same."

"Buck, you also hide with your subordinates."

"Phantom, Blackie, be prepared to fight," 

Lucas gave orders to everyone and finally his eyes laned on the two-meter orange-eared spirit lynx.

"As for you, just hide."

It was just a rank 3 spirit beast that didn't have any powerful attack skills and it only got at escaping. So, he didn't order to fight.

"Yes, young master."

"Yes, master."

Soon, everyone hid some distance away from Lucas just like he ordered.

'I hope some good lynx spirit beasts will come after using this.'

With a hopeful look, Lucas poured the special beast luring potion that was mixed with the orange-eared spirit lynx around him.

'Time to hide.'

Since he didn't know how many lynx type spirit beasts would rush towards this location, Lucas also found a place to hide while waiting for the spirit beasts to come.

Time continued to pass and in a flash, five minutes passed; however, there was no sign of any spirit beast that was coming in their direction, making Lucas frown a little.

'Is that potion defective? No, the system didn't mention it being defective.'

Lucas started thinking about it as he thought to come out of his hiding place to check for the spirit beasts.

'Roar'

'Roar'

All of a sudden, Lucas heard a huge roar, making him greatly excited because he was almost sure that the incoming spirit beast was a lynx type spirit beast.

'Roar'

'Roar'

'Roar'

However, in the next second, Lucas frowned when he heard multiple roars from the surroundings.

'Judging from the roars, there has to be a lot of them coming towards this place.'

Lucas only thought about it for a moment before thinking, 'Let it be. The more spirit beasts come, the better it is for me.'
