A few more hours passed, and Avery’s temperature finally fully stabilized. Although she hadn’t completely returned to normal levels, as long as she kept warm properly, she would gradually recover on her own.
With that, Lynch left the blanket. Although the customs in this world were more open than on Earth, they hadn’t reached that level of openness, especially given the other’s special status, it was better to be cautious.
He then put Avery’s clothes back on her exactly as they were. He had just hung them by the campfire, and after all that time, they were thoroughly dried by the fire.
Finally, he fed Avery, who had returned to normal temperature, a bowl of Hot Magic Soup, and then Lynch donned a cloak and sat alone on one side of the campfire.
After completing all of this, Lynch composed himself and his gaze fell back on Parker, who was still playing with stones on the ground.
Disturbing the evolution process at such a crucial moment, who knows what might happen.
Thinking of this, Lynch quickly called out to Parker, "Parker, come here."
Like a playful puppy, Parker stretched his tongue out, shook his head, and bounced toward Lynch.
"Alright, alright."
Lynch gave Parker a piece of jerky, patted its head, and only then did it settle down.
Judging by its state, it seemed the evolution had completed successfully?
Then, while petting Parker, Lynch opened the system panel to check Parker’s current status.
After establishing a strong mental connection with Parker, Lynch found that he could also view Parker’s data panel. However, this checking was not as convenient as viewing his own; he had to have physical contact to see the current data.
Magic Pet: Parker.
Race: Dragon Attribute, Bloodline Purity 0.0031%.
Strength 23.6, Agility 22.2, Constitution 25.8, Spirit 13.8.
Talents: Steel Claw, Breath, Hard Skin...
"Tsk tsk..."
Seeing Parker’s specific attributes, Lynch couldn’t help but click his tongue. Even though he knew evolution would bring improvements, such a significant enhancement effect still surprised him.
The average value of the three main attributes exceeded 20, which clearly reached the level of a High-level Knight!
"High-level Knight..."
For a moment, Lynch didn’t know what to say, and as he looked at Parker, who was foolishly eating jerky over there, an inexplicable feeling of envy arose in his heart.
He knew that to advance to Mid-level Knight, he had to train tirelessly every day, and the sweat he shed over the years was enough to be calculated in tons. It was only recently that he finally barely advanced.
And Parker?
For the past few years, Lynch had watched it personally. When he practiced sword fighting, it was playing. When he did breathing exercises, it was eating. When he got up early for running and physical training, it was still snoring away...
Yet, just by eating, sleeping, and playing, it still gained more power than he did. This was really... too unfair!
’There’s nothing I can do, this is talent!’
Magic beasts and magic creatures are like this. Their strength depends more on their bloodline than on effort and accumulation. They don’t need to deliberately do anything, they just need to meet the necessary conditions to naturally awaken.
The reason why the bloodline lineage is so popular is for the same reason: just by merging with the bloodline of some powerful life forms, they can naturally awaken and possess the power contained within the bloodline. No need to learn, no need to comprehend, no need to memorize long complex formulas or construct intricate models... as long as the conditions are met and the awakening is complete, this power can be possessed.
Of course, the downside is also apparent. The acquisition of strength is derived from the bloodline, so the strength is naturally constrained by the bloodline. Once it reaches the peak of the bloodline level, no further strength can be obtained.
