Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 153 Agunas_1
Chapter 153: 153 Agunas_1
"Ah, what a hassle..."
Feng Yuan helplessly picked up the golden Spirit Beast Egg. After Feng Yuan picked up the egg, the White Wolf Deity turned its head and disappeared into the school’s woods. Seeing the White Wolf Deity leave, everyone sighed with a sense of loss. Feng Yuan didn’t bother with those people and was about to spread his dark wings and fly back to his dormitory when he suddenly felt a murderous intent from behind. Turning his head, he discovered Teacher Mu standing behind him with a cold smile. Feng Yuan chuckled a few times and ran back to the dormitory through the main entrance. Watching Feng Yuan flee in panic, Teacher Mu sighed and said in a low voice as he watched him disappear,
"Favored by so many Divine Beasts, whether this is a blessing or a curse for you..."
Hurrying back to the dormitory with the Spirit Beast Egg, Qi Chen pointed to Xiao Ji, who was sulking on the side, and said,
"You figure out how to explain it to him yourself."
"Uh..."
Feng Yuan looked at the Spirit Beast Egg in his arms and then at Xiao Ji, saying helplessly,
"There’s nothing I can do... for now, it’s safer to keep it with me."
"What kind of Spirit Beast Egg did you get from the White Wolf Deity? That of a woolly sheep?"
"How could that be! It’s an Agunas Egg, who knows why it chose to gestate at a time like this."
"Gestate?"
Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan with some confusion. After placing the egg carefully on the bed, Feng Yuan walked over to the closet, took out a small backpack, lined it with soft fabric, and changed his clothes. Then, he slung the backpack in front of him and carefully placed the egg inside it. Seeing that Feng Yuan did not speak up to comfort him, Xiao Ji felt aggrieved and curled up in bed, shedding tears. The Dreaming Dragon Baby, seeing Xiao Ji like that, swept away his tears with its tail and grumbled dissatisfiedly at Feng Yuan.
After the egg was settled, Feng Yuan went over to the bed to comfort Xiao Ji. Najia was woken up by Feng Yuan’s voice and floated down with a puzzled look. Seeing that Feng Yuan seemed to have angered Xiao Ji again, Najia watched speechlessly. After a brief explanation, Feng Yuan asked Najia to help him comfort Xiao Ji. By the time the class was about to start, Xiao Ji had calmed down a little. Looking at the distressed Xiao Ji, Feng Yuan helplessly picked him up and placed him on his head, saying,
"You really are something. It’s not like I want to take care of it, but for now, I’m just about okay to keep it..."
"What kind of twisted logic is that? Spirit Beasts are originally wild. Since when can’t they survive without being raised by someone?"
"Here, breakfast. Although Teacher Chu doesn’t care about you, don’t be too brazen eating it during class, all right?"
After taking the breakfast Qi Chen handed to him, Feng Yuan picked up his textbook and followed Qi Chen to the classroom. He placed Xiao Ji on the desk and carefully positioned the egg along with the backpack in the middle of the table. Xiao Ji glanced at the Spirit Beast Egg and turned away slightly dissatisfied. After finishing breakfast, Feng Yuan smiled and poked the back of Xiao Ji’s head and said,
"I brought you to class like this when you were an egg too~ I didn’t expect that in such a short time, I’d have to hatch another Spirit Beast Egg..."
While saying this, Feng Yuan sighed and looked at the Spirit Beast Egg in front of him, saying,
"But it’s okay. The Agunas Egg doesn’t need special care, at least it won’t need constant attention like when I rescued you."
After listening to Feng Yuan prattle on for a while, Xiao Ji turned and looked at him with a plaintive gaze, then rubbed Feng Yuan’s arm with his fluffy head. Feng Yuan smiled and said,
"I’m not blaming you; it’s just that Agunas can only follow us for now... After all, no Divine Beast has the spare energy to take care of it at the moment..."
Xiao Ji looked at Feng Yuan with a puzzled expression, and Feng Yuan whispered with a smile,
"Agunas is a Divine Beast, after all. It’s impossible for me to sign a contract with it."
"Ji?!"
Xiao Ji looked at Feng Yuan in surprise, and Feng Yuan propped his head with one hand as he stared at the Agunas Egg, saying,
"Agunas has no Divine Beast clan of its own due to special reasons. If it weren’t for the fake World Clock fragment suddenly turning into an Agunas Egg, Agunas would still be considered extinct."
"So... Xiao Ji, you’ll have to remember to create your own Divine Beast clan in the future~"
As Feng Yuan poked Xiao Ji’s head, Xiao Ji looked at him with some discontent and then pitifully looked at the Agunas Egg. Feng Yuan watched the Agunas Egg with a sense of helplessness and whispered,
"A young Divine Beast without the protection of other Divine Beasts is so tempting; if it grows up on its own, there are bound to be problems. After all, it’s not some weak Divine Beast like Nagna..."
After class, seeing Xiao Ji actively protecting Agunas’s egg, Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan with surprise and said,
"You’re pretty good, managing to convince Xiao Ji so quickly."
"It’s because Xiao Ji is sensible, okay~"
"Ji~"
"Really? I saw how wronged Xiao Ji looked this morning."
Seeing that Qi Chen didn’t hide his skepticism, Feng Yuan said somewhat helplessly,
"Then just assume I convinced Xiao Ji. By the way, you should be careful of the Transcend Sect. They’ve been active near Maomu City recently, and I don’t know what they’re up to."
"Without you mentioning it, I would have forgotten. What’s this Transcend Sect? I don’t remember them from before."
"That’s all Meng Binglan’s doing. Let’s walk and talk; I’m hungry."
Feng Yuan said as he packed up his things, placed Xiao Ji on his head, turned around, and left the classroom; Qi Chen followed and asked with some confusion,
"What did she do?"
"Do you still remember the Divine Descent Technique?"
"Of course, what about it? Did she spread the Divine Descent Technique? But that’s not right; the Transcend Sect had already appeared when we came back."
"You couldn’t possibly have leaked any information about the Divine Descent Technique here. I’ve said it before—Meng Binglan came up with a crooked idea to record the Divine Descent Technique in writing, even carving it into nearly indestructible stone and deliberately leaving it near Yognot."
Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan in surprise, and Feng Yuan sighed and said,
"She probably thought she could dig it out again by returning to the modern era to bypass the restrictions, but there’s always a price to pay. According to the data online, the Transcend Sect originated over a hundred years ago. At that time, the Sect Leader found the stele with the records of the Divine Descent Technique and then modified it to become the current Transcend Sect."
"Wait, what did he modify?"
"He modified the retained power. Now, the Transcend Sect can forcibly extract the power of Spirit Beasts and completely inject it into specific artifacts..."
"How could they!"
Qi Chen exclaimed in disbelief, while Feng Yuan shook his head and said,
"That’s the conclusion drawn from the analysis of the information available online. The Transcend Sect always ends up with a large number of Spirit Beasts that have been tragically drained of their power and died, and they can use the Power of Spirit Beast of various types."
Feng Yuan said, chuckling lightly,
"That’s something even the G Organization can’t do; apart from forcibly extracting the power of Spirit Beasts and attaching it to artifacts, I can’t think of any other explanation."
"Bastards!"
After reviewing the information before him, Captain Yang threw the documents angrily onto the table and paced furiously around the room for a long while. His anger gradually subsided, and only then did he understand what Feng Yuan and Gladys had meant. Looking at the photos of the dead Spirit Beasts spilling out from the smashed report on the table, Captain Yang said with a choked voice,
"Sorry... I’m so sorry..."
Bai Mao stood beside Captain Yang, unsure how to console him, while Xiao Ji nudged Captain Yang’s leg with its head in an attempt to lift his spirits.
Meng Binglan returned to her room feeling despondent. When she curiously looked up information on the Transcend Sect, she realized that it was all her fault. Curling up on the bed and looking at her worried Iron Spider Tir Dom and Scholarly Owl, she was haunted by the images of those dead Spirit Beasts and silently let tears fall as she incessantly whispered apologies in her heart.
