Beast Taming: I'm Really Just a Forest Ranger-Chapter 105 - 100: Is the Second Wave of Spiritual Energy Revival Coming? (Part 2)

Chapter 105: Chapter 100: Is the Second Wave of Spiritual Energy Revival Coming? (Part 2)

The old chicken coop was indeed too simple. The Bean Chicken, after all, is an Extraordinary Creature, so its living environment must be improved.

Chen Yuan thought for a moment and decided to change the rain cover. At the very least, it needed to withstand strong winds.

This project would clearly take some time. Chen Yuan waved at the Bean Chicken, saying, "You all go for a stroll first; I’ll try to finish it early."

"Cluck～"

The Bean Chicken nodded gently, turning to leave with the Little Chicks.

Only then did Chen Yuan notice that the Little Chicks behind the Bean Chicken had also undergone a change—all of them were uniformly round and plump, covered in light yellow fur.

Wait a moment.

Were there no ordinary Little Chicks left? Had they all turned into Bean Chicken hatchlings?

Chen Yuan hurriedly called for the Bean Chicken to stop, quickly walked forward, squatted down, and examined them carefully.

After a while,

Chen Yuan softly exhaled and smiled, "Alright, you can go for a stroll now."

As he had discovered, those few ordinary Little Chicks seemed to have all evolved overnight into Bean Chicken hatchlings, transforming from ordinary creatures into Extraordinary Creatures with magical powers.

This was undoubtedly a good thing.

With this, all the creatures on the farm had become Extraordinary Creatures.

With a thought, Chen Yuan summoned Spark from the Pet Beast space.

He looked directly at Spark and asked, "Spark, can you sense what has changed in this world?"

Compared to humans, Extraordinary Creatures should be better able to intuitively sense changes in the world.

"Chirp～"

A flash of confusion appeared in Spark’s eyes, but it chose to follow the Beastmaster’s command, gently flapping its wings and flying upwards.

Circling the sky above the yard several times, bathed in brilliant sunlight, Spark slowly landed on Chen Yuan’s shoulder.

"Chirp, chirp, chirp."

"Do you like the current post-rainstorm world better?"

"Chirp." Spark nodded.

Spark couldn’t accurately describe the specific changes in the world, but it could clearly feel that it liked the current air, sunlight, and clouds more...

Flying in the air, its mood and body were happier.

Chen Yuan nodded thoughtfully and quietly took out his phone.

In case of doubt, ask the younger brother.

As soon as the call was connected, Chen Wenhao’s voice leisurely sounded, "Brother, this is a continuation of the last Spiritual Energy Revival."

Chen Yuan was taken aback, "I hadn’t even asked anything."

Chen Wenhao smiled slightly, "If you’re calling now, it can only be about this."

Chen Yuan couldn’t help but chuckle, "Truly the first top student of our Chen Family."

Chen Wenhao neither confirmed nor denied it, patiently explaining, "According to analysis, the concentration of Spiritual Energy in the air today is noticeably higher than yesterday. But since the rain only lasted overnight, it’s temporarily considered a continuation of the last Spiritual Energy Revival."

"Like an earthquake and its aftershocks?" Chen Yuan asked.

"That’s one way to understand it."

"Will this happen again in the future?"

"It shouldn’t... right?" Chen Wenhao’s tone was full of uncertainty. He hesitated and said, "Based on past literature, after a Spiritual Energy Revival, a minor continuation usually follows."

"After this continuation, most ordinary creatures will evolve, and in the future, we’ll likely only see ordinary creatures in zoos."

Chen Yuan thought of the overnight evolution of the Little Chicks and nodded thoughtfully.

"Is this a good thing?" he asked.

"You could say that," Chen Weiyi nodded and said, "With higher Spiritual Energy concentration, Beastmasters can meditate more efficiently, more ordinary people can become Beastmasters, and the appearance probability of Spirit Plants will also increase; moreover, Pet Beasts’ power will enhance faster."

"No wonder grandpa became a Beastmaster this morning," Chen Yuan nodded in realization.

Moreover, the sudden germination of the fruit pit also had a reasonable explanation.

"Grandpa has already become a Beastmaster? That’s great!" Chen Wenhao exclaimed in surprise, then sighed, "I don’t know how long it will be before I can come home."

"Will you get busier in the future?" Chen Yuan asked.

"Of course." Chen Wenhao scratched his sparse hair, sighing, "During such a special period, there’s almost no rest time; I’m in the lab from morning till night."

"I need to find a chance to go out for field research with my teacher."

"Field research?" Chen Yuan looked puzzled.

Chen Wenhao explained, "Nowadays, the power of wild Extraordinary Creatures is generally not high, and the danger level isn’t as imagined; thus, the teacher will take us deep into the wild to closely contact and study Pet Beasts while collecting Spirit Plant samples."

"Not just us, but the Beastmaster Association and many companies and organizations are doing similar things, striving to gain an advantage in this new era."

Unknowingly, the two talked for a long time until Chen Wenhao said, "I should go now, I need to get back to the lab."

"You’ll go even on a Saturday?" Chen Yuan asked, surprised.

Chen Wenhao replied with a distant tone, "Do oxen and horses care what day of the week it is when they’re working?"

Chen Yuan: "..."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Yuan’s mind was filled with the wealth of information he had just received. He exhaled deeply, "Anyway, let’s build the chicken coop first."

Being just a humble Forest Ranger, taking good care of the little guys on the farm was already satisfying enough for him.

Chen Yuan and the old man brought out the blue-colored steel roof sheets from the warehouse. These were lightweight, earthquake-resistant, fireproof, waterproof, and had a long service life, suitable for many applications.

Compared to the oilcloth that would collapse in the wind, the steel roofing could better shield the Bean Chickens from wind and rain.

Besides, the place where Xuanhe Village is located rarely experiences strong winds. If not for the two storms brought about by the Spiritual Energy Revival, the oilcloth could have lasted for a long time.

The two worked together and quickly secured the steel roof sheets.

"Quack quack～"

As the two sat in the yard resting, the three lazy fellows in the main hall finally got up.

Run Run Duck strutted out of the house, squinting at the morning sun. The brilliant sunlight fell all over its body, spreading a warm sensation throughout.

"Quack, quack, quack!"

It’s Sunshine Duck!

Having not seen the sun for several days, Run Run Duck got thoroughly excited. It eagerly wanted to lie on the big rock by the fish pond to bask in the sun, but despite the remaining distance, its eager desire was evident.

Too lazy to move, Run Run Duck simply lay on its back in the yard, eyes staring straight at the sun above, its body becoming more and more relaxed.

So comfy, Duck.

"Howl howl～"

Cola soon dashed out of the house. Its reaction wasn’t much different from Run Run Duck’s, except instead of lying down directly, it ran happily around the farm.

Its form was like a light breeze, sometimes chasing fluttering butterflies, sometimes hopping around Chen Yuan.

"Dian Dian～"

Electric Flying Cat, with sleepy eyes, slowly walked out. The first thing it did upon reaching the yard was to flap its wings and fly into its small treehouse.

Closing the wooden door, Electric Flying Cat instinctively curled its body and lay down.

The next moment, feeling a chill, Electric Flying Cat shivered and widened its eyes.

"Dian Dian!"

How come there’s water in the treehouse!!!

Before long,

after hearing Electric Flying Cat’s complaint, Chen Yuan laughed, "Perhaps the waterproofing wasn’t done properly."

"I’ll fix it for you when I have time."

Before Electric Flying Cat could respond, Chen Yuan looked it over and squinted his eyes, saying, "Did you keep up with the weight loss while I was away from the farm for these two days?"

"Dian Dian..."

Feeling Chen Yuan’s gaze, Electric Flying Cat’s eyes darted around. It wanted to sneak back into the treehouse but was caught by Chen Yuan at the back of the neck.

Chen Yuan, with a stern face, said, "It’s such a nice day today; go exercise, move around, don’t just sleep all day."

"Dian Dian!"

Hearing this, Electric Flying Cat immediately stretched out its paw, pointing at Run Run Duck, who was lying motionless on the ground.

Chen Yuan remained silent for a moment.

"Quack quack～"

Noticing the attention from both sides, Run Run Duck didn’t even lift its head, just waved its wing.

"Yes, and you too, Duck, get up and exercise!"

"Didn’t you want to bask in the sun? Then exercise under the sun."

"Quack quack～" 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Upon hearing Chen Yuan’s words, Run Run Duck did not react intensely. It leisurely waved its wings, still lying quietly on the ground.

Yep, yep, yep, the farm owner is right.

But Duck just wants to bask in the sun...
