Round 9127: This Mutt's Got Something Special

"Common grade, first tier. Register it, then take it away to be burned."

Shen Yan transmigrated into a world of beast taming and immortal cultivation. He was nothing but the lowest-ranked servant in the Beast Garden of the Myriad Beasts Sect. He borrowed a contract paper worth 120 copper coins and saved the gray-haired mutt that was supposed to be dragged away and burned.

As the contract was sealed with blood, four lines of text appeared before his eyes:

[World cycle: Round 9127]

[Estimated time until this round's destruction: 300 years]

[The only inheritable unit: Gray Dog, Ah Hui]

[Warning: Your spirit beast will remember every death]

Others treated low-tier spirit pets as expendable supplies. Shen Yan and Ah Hui, however, repeatedly scouted paths, retreated, and started over. The map would reset and temporary traits would be cleared, but Ah Hui remembered the pain, every dead end, and every time Shen Yan had included its life in the "optimal solution."

When a life could be deleted from the records, and a name could disappear before the body, Shen Yan finally understood:

The System could calculate how to clear the game, but it couldn't decide for them who should be made the price.
