‘Can the pets additionally see that?’ Alex panicked.

It was not the primary time Alex was making a pet. He used it previously to save lots of the mutant youngsters. Nonetheless, this was the primary time Alex was interacting with a pet. The youngsters have been beforehand relinquished from the farm’s management once they absolutely healed. It is smart that he did not know in regards to the present operate.

“What are you seeing?”

Alex directed his query at Chitra. He wished to know intimately what it was.

‘In spite of everything, folks with one thing fallacious with their mind can see unnatural issues within the peripheral imaginative and prescient. It can’t all the time be related to an otherworldly farming simulator with me.’

Chitra took some to reply this time. She spent the time pondering over what she was about to say. Though the white-robed man was not an enemy, she was not sure what she noticed was associated to him.

“Are you aware one thing about it?” She requested again, unwilling to share the data simply.

“I would not know in case you are unwilling to say what you’re seeing.”

“As I mentioned earlier than, it’s a cartoonish picture. At first, I assumed it was some form of image, but it surely was not one. I’m positive about that.”

“Are you positive there’s nothing fallacious along with your head or eyes?”

Alex’s query irked Chitra. Her eyes turned fierce for a second. However she calmed down shortly. The particular person earlier than her was her saviour.

“I’m positive.” She spoke, biting her lips.

ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm “Then, it might solely be one thing associated to me.” Alex rubbed his temples after saying that.

Nonetheless, Chitra did not permit Alex any time to mull over it. She shortly requested the next query. She knew that no strange factor might make her hallucinate. It have to be one thing highly effective.

“What’s it?”

“Why can I see it?”

“That is irregular. I would love an evidence for that.”

Chitra was affordable together with her questions. She did not assault him or get offended with the present scenario. She was amicable as soon as she realised her present place.

“Hm… The reality is that I do not know. However watch for a minute. It might take a while for me to entry the data.”

Alex could not reply questions of Chitra instantly.

“Earlier than that, You possibly can put on this.” Alex threw a spare white gown at Chitra. He could not let her be bare all this time.

“You possibly can put on that and are available to the desk. I’ve ready some meals for us to eat.”

He pointed on the desk close by whereas strolling in the direction of it. He sat comfortably on a chair beside it and commenced asking the query Chitra requested the farm AI, the one factor that might learn about their present scenario.

“Farm. Do you’ve gotten one thing you wish to say?”

[What information would you like to know?]

‘What sort of query is that? After all, I wish to know in regards to the pet operate. Did I overestimate the flexibility of the farm?’

“About why the pet is seeing the farm icon. I assumed I used to be the one one that might see that.”

[The farm can allow the pets to use the farm features. The user can determine what features are available for the farm. In simple terms, the farm abilities, as you call it, will be available for the pet. And the portal which they can use is by the farm icon.]

“Effectively, I would not name it easy. Your clarification makes it much more advanced. Are you able to describe this function with some examples?”

[I can.]

[Example: The user can teleport into the interdimensional space of the farm. Similarly, the pets can teleport into the farm by concentrating on the icon.]

“Huh! I’m completely happy to know that. However would not that imply a pet canine, who can’t focus on the icon, won’t be able to teleport in on their very own volition? Did the farm count on me to create clever creatures as my pet?”

[Intelligent creatures are preferable. Only intelligent creatures have the will and intelligence to use farm ability.]

“Sigh! You could possibly have advised it earlier than.” The pet operate was extra useful than Alex predicted. He was a bit discouraged that he had simply misplaced three pet slots. Nonetheless, he did not remorse the actions. Even with the brand new data, he would have made the identical selection once more in an analogous scenario.

“Anyway, what different skills can the pet use?”

[Currently, they only can access the farm space. The user can allow the pets to use other features like the short-distance or long-distance teleport point ability. However, these have some prerequisites.]

[The pet can only do short-distance teleport if the pet is within 1000 meters of the user. Similarly, the pet can access the teleport point feature when it is within the radius of the teleport point.]I believe it’s best to check out

‘I anticipated limitations like that. Nonetheless, it is fairly helpful.’

“What about warehouse and stock operate? Do the pets have that too?”

[Pets can access the warehouse and inventory if the user allows it. But, they are also limited by the proximity of the user. They can only use the feature once they are within a kilometre distance of the user.]

‘Nice!’ Alex was excited to know this.

He thought deeply in regards to the new options, and lots of of prospects emerged.

‘What if I can use pets in fight?’

‘Seven pets that may work collectively to help. Each one among these pets makes use of teleport and stock features. They will additionally escape to the farm when their life is threatened. That is tremendous cool. I haven’t got to struggle alone anymore.’

‘I’m like a tamer now. However higher.’

Alex was thrilled by the notion.

Equally, he might additionally use pets to do his work in actual life. With sufficient teleport factors constructed worldwide, they will journey wherever, anytime, whereas doing their bidding. There was additionally this risk too.

Nonetheless, an easy problem arises: how can he obtain unconditional obedience from his pets? Intelligence brings forth the problem of potential rebel.

“Rattling it, I’ve no intention of exerting power. I am not aiming to develop into the subsequent slave lord. I have to ponder deeply earlier than selecting a pet.” Alex spoke aloud his ideas.

In the meantime, Chitra was what Alex was doing. She might hear the phrases he was talking. Though she could not perceive most of it or what the AI was replying to, she might kind a normal guess about what was taking place.

And one of many phrases she heard essentially the most whereas he spoke with skinny air was ‘pet’. Lastly, she additionally listened to the phrases ‘slave lord’. This spooked her a bit.

The younger man earlier than her was speaking to skinny air about pets and slave lords. And by some means, she felt he was speaking about her when he mentioned pet. This additional intensified her doubt.

‘What is going on on?’ Her thoughts was about to scream for assist.

In spite of everything, she had cause to doubt Alex. She anticipated to see an older mature man behind the masks and white robes. However, what she acquired was a bum-like teenager. He known as himself the white-robed man and launched himself. He has but to say his identify.

Nonetheless, she trusted his phrases and waited patiently to get the reply to her query.

However that is when he started speaking to air about pets.

‘Does this particular person have a screw free?’ She thought.

‘Perhaps it’s a couple of screw.’

–

“Thanks, AI. Now, I’ve a normal understanding of the pet function. I simply hoped that you could possibly have mentioned earlier.”

[Please read notifications from the farm before saying that.] The farm replied.

That is when Alex remembered the notification he heard when Chitra mistook him for a pervert and attacked.

Alex swiftly glanced on the notification historical past. Certainly, it contained some data relating to the pet function and the flexibility to allow pets to utilise the identical farm skills because the consumer.

Moreover, there have been warnings regarding Chitra’s psychological state. There was even a notification inquiring whether or not he required help in sustaining management.

‘Uh! I might have stopped Chitra. There was a way to take care of management over the pet. Cool! I want I haven’t got to make use of that. As a result of, like the youngsters, I do not plan to let Chitra depart. She should work someday earlier than she will acquire her freedom.’ Alex thought with a sly smile.

The sly smile seemed horrifying to Chitra. She wished to wake him up from the reveries and ask if she might depart. The pocket house she was at the moment in was making her uncomfortable. She by some means had the sensation of powerlessness drill into her. It is as if she had no management over her life.

“Um.” She spoke, making an attempt to achieve Alex’s consideration.

“Uh!” Alex awoke from his reverie and gazed at Chitra. His lips curled and revealed the very best smile he might make.

“Whats up, Chitra. Let me introduce myself. I’m Meru of the stone-head tribe. I hope we are able to work collectively sooner or later.” He mentioned with a nice smile.

Chitra did not understand how to reply to that. What working collectively? What was he saying?

‘Are you able to first clarify what I noticed in my peripheral imaginative and prescient?’

Chitra might have by no means imagined her plight since she requested Alex to save lots of her life.
