Alex pointed to the nearby bush.
The two looked and saw a brightly blooming sweet flower.
"Not a flower." Alex denied, then pointed more clearly.
Looking again, a small Pyro Slime was lying next to it, seemingly asleep.
Even something this small needs to be dealt with? Lynette understood, then picked up her sword, preparing to quickly resolve it with her Shadow Weave technique.
Unexpectedly, Alex directly held back Lynette, who had just entered her Shadow Weave state.
Under Lynette's questioning gaze, Alex quietly and slowly walked towards the Pyro Slime.
Alex slowly squatted down beside the Pyro Slime, then turned to look at the two: "Look, there's a wild Pyro Slime here."
Alex lowered his voice: "We, must not, startle it."
The Pyro Slime suddenly turned around, two white circles lighting up. It had opened its eyes.
"Oh no!" Alex urgently yelled.
The suddenly louder voice startled the Pyro Slime, which immediately bounced up.
Alex also decisively extended both hands and grabbed the Pyro Slime in mid-air.
Capture skill, activate!
The struggling Pyro Slime immediately stopped moving.
"Hooray! Successfully subdued the Pyro Slime!" Alex held the Pyro Slime above his head with both hands. The Pyro Slime obediently blinked its two eyes in Alex's hands.
??? Furina and Lynette looked at each other, confused. How could grabbing a Pyro Slime in his hand mean he had subdued it?
Facing the two girls' puzzled gazes, Alex directly threw the Pyro Slime forward, preparing to demonstrate and prove himself to them.
"Little Fire, use Charge." Alex pointed forward from behind the Pyro Slime.
The Pyro Slime obediently bounced forward.
"Use Big Jump, Big Jump!"
The Pyro Slime jumped high into the air.
"Little Fire, breathe fire!"
??? The Pyro Slime remained motionless, not understanding the command.
"So weak, Slime." Alex shook his head in disappointment. This Pyro Slime would just be a tool. It could only add a layer of Sturdy buff and apply Pyro element to enemies it hit.
"In short, I used a skill and subdued the Pyro Slime!" Alex picked up the tiny Pyro Slime from the ground and placed it directly on top of his head.
The vibrant, Pyro-elemental Pyro Slime sat on Alex's head without burning his hair. This was normal; his own summons would definitely be immune to friendly DMG. How could they harm their master?
"Wow, that's great. Let me touch it, oh, it's so hot." Furina was envious. She reached out to touch it, but as expected, it was still too hot.
"Little Fire, bad!" Seeing Furina get burned by the Pyro Slime, Alex patted the top of his head: "Later, I'll get a Slime of a different element for you to touch."
"No need! I don't like it!" Furina immediately crossed her arms, turned her head, and sulked.
"There's a Hilichurl here... Never mind, Lynette, deal with it!" In the end, Alex didn't want a Hilichurl by his side.
Walking down the mountain, Alex, who had been searching for new companions, suddenly noticed sweet flowers in a nearby corner: "Three sweet flowers, forming a triangle."
Alert! An allogene player's intuition.
Alex waved, beckoning Lynette over: "Lynette, those three sweet flowers are very likely Whopperflowers. Be careful when you touch them. Don't kill them yet; I want to see if I can capture all three Whopperflowers. Wouldn't that be invincible?"
"Okay!" Hearing Alex's words, Lynette immediately used her Shadow Weave technique to circle around and pluck the sweet flowers.
And just as Alex said, they were all fake sweet flowers.
The ground at the three sweet flower spots trembled, and then a Pyro Whopperflower and two Cryo Whopperflowers appeared before the three of them.
Alex immediately activated his skill. Instantly, Alex felt he had controlled one Pyro Whopperflower and one Cryo Whopperflower.
As for the second Cryo Whopperflower, Alex directly threw the Pyro Slime far away to release it, then tried to capture the Cryo Whopperflower, but failed.
Alex briefly released the Pyro Whopperflower, then tried to recapture it, which also failed.
After recapturing the Pyro Whopperflower, Alex found the reason: Was it because he couldn't capture duplicates? Perhaps. Maybe his current level wasn't high enough. Later, he might be able to capture the same kind. For now, only one of each kind.
However, two were enough. As for the third one, instead of the useless Pyro Slime, Alex suddenly wanted to capture a Rifthound Whelp.
They are truly strong; even with a Zhongli shield, you could die. If an enemy were to be bitten by one, as long as they had no healer, he wouldn't even need to lift a finger.
It's just a pity that Fontaine doesn't seem to have them right now.
What about the Pyro Slime he released? Why would he capture another Slime? They're so weak!
