Reborn with Infinite System Points, I Can Directly Change Item's Value-Chapter 46 --Crimsonflame Dragon, Frost Phoenix

Inside Snelow City,

John entered an alleyway and opened his pet space.

Inside, the two Pet Eggs were glowing faintly, both marked as ready to be claimed.

After thinking for a moment, John took out the crimson-red egg first.

[Congratulations! You have obtained the SSS-rank pet "Crimsonflame Dragon"!]

John’s gaze sharpened.

"Crimsonflame Dragon?"

He had never expected it to be a dragon-type pet.

One of the noblest beast-type pets in the world of Apocalypse!

[Due to the limited space in this area, the SSS-rank Crimsonflame Dragon has been placed into your pet space automatically. Please check its detailed information there.] 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Hearing that, John immediately opened the pet space to inspect its stats.

[Crimsonflame Dragon]

[Skills]: Dragon Breath, Dragon Roar, Dragon’s Might...

[Description]: A fire-aspect dragon-type pet, adept at fire magic!

...

Looking at the stat panel, John was extremely satisfied.

Dragon-type pets had always been exceptionally powerful.

And this Crimsonflame Dragon was a fire-type on top of that, so its offensive power needed no further explanation.

What surprised him, however, was that pets could actually share his experience pool.

In other words, the excess EXP in his pool could be used directly to level up the Crimsonflame Dragon!

The moment that thought occurred to him,

John no longer hesitated and immediately began spending the EXP stored in his pool.

Right now, he had nearly over four million excess EXP saved up.

If he did not use it soon, it would overflow again.

[10,000 EXP consumed. Crimsonflame Dragon has reached Level 10!]

[100,000 EXP consumed. Crimsonflame Dragon has reached Level 30!]

[1,000,000 EXP consumed. Crimsonflame Dragon has reached Level 50!]

[Your pet’s level has now reached your own level and can no longer be increased.]

...

John directly maxed out the Crimsonflame Dragon’s level,

bringing it all the way up to Level 50, the same as himself.

When he looked at the status panel again:

[Crimsonflame Dragon]

[Skills]: Dragon Breath, Dragon Roar, Dragon’s Might...

After leveling up, the Crimsonflame Dragon’s stats had undergone a heaven-shaking transformation.

Its form had changed dramatically as well.

It had grown from its original tiny flame-like state into a terrifying body as blazing and imposing as the sun itself.

Once released, it could probably burn everything around it into nothingness.

Looking at the majestic Crimsonflame Dragon inside the pet space,

John’s lips curled upward slightly.

Then his gaze shifted toward the remaining deep-blue Pet Egg.

"Since I’ve already powered one up, I might as well claim the other one too."

With that thought,

John used his will to extract the remaining SSS-rank Pet Egg as well.

[You have obtained the SSS-rank pet "Frost Phoenix"!]

[Due to the limitations of the current terrain, this pet has been automatically placed into your pet space!]

...

What?

It was actually a phoenix?

John widened his eyes, clearly surprised.

In the worldbuilding of Apocalypse, there were only a few beast races that could truly be considered top-tier.

Among them, the dragon race and phoenix race were the most famous of all.

Even beast-type pets carrying only the thinnest trace of dragon or phoenix blood were coveted by countless players.

And yet now,

John had actually obtained two pure-blooded beasts of the dragon and phoenix races at the same time!

Looking at the Frost Phoenix inside the pet space, small and delicate like an ornamental figurine,

John eagerly opened its information panel.

[Frost Phoenix]

[Skills]: Phoenix Cry, Ice Spike, Frost Spirit Shield...

[Description]: An existence on par with the dragon race, one of the finest among the phoenix race, wielding the power of frost and snow between heaven and earth!

...

"Not bad, not bad. Now I’ve got both dragon and phoenix, plus both fire and ice buffs fully stacked."

John was all smiles now.

Without hesitation, he continued spending EXP to level up the Frost Phoenix.

[Frost Phoenix]

[Skills]: Phoenix Cry, Ice Spike, Frost Spirit Shield...

After completing the upgrades,

John now possessed two terrifying pets powerful enough to crush the overwhelming majority of enemies.

Just then,

he heard the sounds of hooves and clashing weapons coming from outside the city.

Clearly, the mercenaries had launched their assault the moment they saw him disappear.

By now, they were already battering at the city gates.

John looked at the two majestic dragon and phoenix pets in his pet space and smiled.

"Perfect timing. These two can have a little warm-up."

...

At that moment,

the city guards of Snelow City had already sunk into complete despair.

They were resisting only by instinct now,

because the mercenaries were like swarming cockroaches unafraid of death, impossible to stop as they climbed up the city walls.

That young man had claimed to be reinforcements from the Empire, yet fled just before the battle began.

Such conduct had left the city guards utterly cold and hopeless.

At last, they could no longer hold out.

A wave of mercenaries climbed up through the breach and onto the wall.

They laughed arrogantly.

"We told you to surrender, but you refused. Are you still hoping that coward comes back to save you?"

Gritting their teeth, the city guards raised their weapons and continued fighting.

But how could they possibly match several thousand mercenaries?

Soon they were driven back step by step, on the verge of collapse.

The mercenaries, meanwhile, had become completely drunk on victory.

"Hahahaha! So this so-called imperial main city is nothing special after all."

"I thought we’d have to pay a heavy price for this, but turns out it’s easy!"

"The treasures of Snelow City—your lord has arrived!"

At that very moment,

a clear phoenix cry and a deep dragon roar suddenly rang out from above the city wall.

Before the mercenaries could even react,

a terrifying stream of dragon breath came surging down.

[-31,090!]

[-32,000!]

[-...]

Before the Crimsonflame Dragon’s fearsome breath,

those mercenary grunts—most of whom were not even above Level 30—were instantly melted into ashes.

As for the few lucky survivors, they were frozen solid by the Frost Phoenix’s icy assault and shattered into icy fragments on the spot!

Just two pet skills—

and several hundred mercenaries on the wall were annihilated in an instant!

Seeing this scene,

both the city guards and the mercenaries still climbing the walls below were struck dumb.

They raised their heads in disbelief and stared at the two enormous beasts circling in the sky.

One was clad in fire and flame, the other pure and pristine as frost.

As they wheeled through the heavens, half the sky burned with heat while the other half was steeped in freezing cold.

The Mercenary Commander was a man of broad experience, and he recognized the identities of the two giant beasts at a glance.

"T-Those are... a dragon and a phoenix?"

"How could both of them appear here at the same time?!"

His face turned ashen, and he staggered backward in terror!
