Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 1203 - 1204: Subsequent Matters
Chapter 1203: Chapter 1204: Subsequent Matters
"The origin of the city-guarding Divine Beast?"
After listening to Feng Yuan’s explanation, Qi Xiaoshuang pondered for a long time before looking at Feng Yuan and saying,
"If it’s really something that important, you... shouldn’t have mentioned it. I believe they also lack the ability to find the source of its origin."
Because Feng Yuan hadn’t told her about the booklet, she was unaware that Feng Yuan had taken a page from the source. As for the archaeology professor from Maomu University, she didn’t particularly mind. It wasn’t that she looked down on them, but that she knew they were far behind the people from Shangjing University.
As long as no one here reports it, it could very well be treated as a worthless relic, and in that way, wouldn’t that make it easier to hide the secrets within?
Glancing at Qi Xiaoshuang, Feng Yuan chuckled and said,
"You really are naive. If Great Xia doesn’t realize the importance of that thing, then who will protect it? I understand what you mean—a secret unknown to anyone is a real secret. But have you considered what if, one day, something unforeseen happens, and someone discovers the truth within the relics due to some special reason? What then?"
"Because Great Xia is unaware of its importance, naturally no one will pay attention to it. Even if something does happen, it’s unlikely that anyone would realize what occurred."
"But..."
Qi Xiaoshuang wanted to argue but didn’t know what to say. The possibilities mentioned by Feng Yuan were not without merit, but still...
"There is no such thing as an absolutely correct decision. I believe my choice is correct, but that doesn’t mean your thoughts are problematic; we simply have different opinions," Feng Yuan said nonchalantly, shrugging his shoulders. In fact, there was no perfect solution to this matter. There would always be the possibility of unexpected outcomes. Since accidents couldn’t be avoided, it was better to choose a method that he could accept.
Lying on the sofa, Feng Yuan scratched Xiao Ji’s chin and said,
"I wonder where Qi Chen and the others have gone. Big Cat and the rest still haven’t returned."
He was not worried about any danger; Kong Qing was still there. Although it was not yet at Divine Beast Level strength, Kong Qing, possessing spatial authority, was not completely defenseless against strong enemies. Furthermore, with so few Space Series Divine Beasts, any slight use of spatial authority in combat would definitely be detected by Gitalien.
"The cell phone can’t get through either, which is really strange."
Looking at Xiao Bai the White Shadow Wolf, Qi Xiaoshuang said puzzledly. It was unclear where they had gone. Even if they were still in the underground relics, there should be a signal, unless they were in the core area. It was likely difficult to set up a signal booster there. But they surely wouldn’t still be in that underground space at this time.
Glancing at the wall clock, Feng Yuan sighed, scratched Xiao Ji’s neck, and said to Agunas,
"Help me ask Veronia where they are now."
Indeed, Feng Yuan had forgotten. Veronia should also be with Qi Chen and the rest. She could access the Divine Beast intelligence network; contacting her shouldn’t be too difficult. Even if they were in the core area, unless it was the central space where the pages were placed earlier, it wouldn’t be impossible to contact her.
Wagging its tail, Agunas said,
"They are currently reporting to the Special Duty Team. If you are free, it would be best for you to head over now."
Looking at the time, sighing, and standing up to stretch, Feng Yuan said,
"What a hassle... Well, let’s go over and bring them back first."
Seeing Feng Yuan look his way, Agunas opened a Space Gate to the Special Duty Team at the front door, understanding the signal. It was getting late, and if they did not hasten to bring everyone back soon, they would miss dinner. Noticing Qi Chen’s Mother busy in the kitchen, Agunas would not suggest something dumb like dining out.
"Where had you run off to before?"
Veronia looked at Feng Yuan with some confusion, not expecting him to disappear before their eyes in a blink. Did he sneak off to play? That seemed unlikely, as Veronia knew Feng Yuan well enough to know that he had no interest in leaving his friends behind to go to some strange place alone, and judging by his demeanor, he seemed more likely to have gone off to take care of some business.
"I’ve got something important to take, but what about you guys? Why did you come here?"
Feng Yuan found the busy Special Duty Team members somewhat strange. What had happened here? The checkpoint at the gate had been stricter than usual, not to mention the guard team members who were stationed there watching. Feng Yuan was usually so familiar with the gatekeepers that he didn’t need to show his credentials to get in.
However, he was stopped by the guard team members but fortunately, after Feng Yuan showed his special credentials, they didn’t press further, otherwise he might have ended up fighting at the gate.
Glancing at Feng Yuan, Veronia said irritably,
"Aren’t you very clear on this? With the origins of the city’s Divine Beasts and the core area being such important matters, it’s only natural they need to be handled with great care."
It wasn’t that they had any special plans for the power, but as managers of the region, they had an obligation to ensure that there would be no accidents causing chaos in these ancient relics, and the power source of the city’s Divine Beasts was a very significant issue.
If the information were to be discovered by criminals, the consequences could be quite alarming. After all, there are hundreds of city’s Divine Beasts spread across the Divine Land Region, not all within Great Xia, but still numerous inside its territory. If someone exploited this intelligence to obtain the power of the city’s Divine Beasts, no one knows what might happen.
Although the individual strength of a city’s Divine Beast is not strong, that’s only if it’s a single one. No one knows whether their powers can be stacked and accumulated together. If so, their combined might could possibly be no less than that of a Divine Beast.
"This matter... As long as I take those things away earlier it’ll be fine, but I’m not available these days..."
Feng Yuan scratched his head and said guiltily. Although he could claim to be idle these past two days, that didn’t mean he truly had the time to collect the pages. After all, Chen Xin had already scheduled the last class activity, and he wasn’t sure he could finish so quickly in such a short time, even with Agunas assisting with the Space Gate. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
After pondering, Feng Yuan seemed to recall something and said,
"It seems... not entirely impossible... Let’s wait and see what happens."
"Wait and see what happens? What are you planning to do again?"
Qi Chen happened to walk by and, hearing Feng Yuan’s words, looked at him suspiciously. What was this guy planning to do? As for his slipping away mid-way, Qi Chen couldn’t be bothered to ask – knowing his habits, if it wasn’t for something urgent, he wouldn’t have left on his own early.
Besides, even Veronia and the others were left behind, making Qi Chen wonder what could be so urgent. But in the next second, he discarded these thoughts, realizing that anything that made Feng Yuan so anxious was probably not simple, and it was better not to be too curious.
"You’re here too? I was planning to contact you tomorrow to come over."
Liao Yu, who looked exhausted, saw Feng Yuan and spoke up, holding some documents in hand. Without needing a closer look, Feng Yuan knew it was a contract with special effects, perhaps for confidentiality purposes?
"You guys, is it really necessary to go to this extent? I’m already preparing to move the core items, just don’t leak those secrets at will, right?"
Feng Yuan said, scratching his head, puzzled. Liao Yu sighed and replied,
"We certainly don’t want any problems to occur on our side, but we can’t control if others make guesses due to other situations."
Although Feng Yuan said this, a decision once made wouldn’t be easily changed. And with so many people talking, although it’s said that keeping the secret is enough to ensure confidentiality, who knows? Even he guessed the mess with the G Organization, so there must be others helping them, not to mention this directly relates to something that could become an Artificial Divine Beast.
Indeed, according to their research, if the power of the city’s Divine Beasts wasn’t currently confined to their respective cities, they might very well be able to add and stack continuously. The power of the city’s Divine Beasts, being between a Sacred Beast and a Divine Beast, could potentially break through to Divine Beast Level if continuously combined.
However, this matter was too shocking, and the related speculations were directly abandoned after realizing this possibility. Not because they weren’t interested in controlling a Divine Beast themselves, but because they were aware of the dangers. Even if it were possible to use this to create Divine Beasts, the limit would likely be just a few.
So, which Beast Tamers would be chosen to enhance these few Divine Beasts? And how would the other Divine Beasts react to such actions? This involves many more issues. Haven’t the Lorraine Tower and the others refrained from interfering directly in Great Xia’s war for fear of opposition from Divine Beasts in other regions of the Divine Land?
Could Divine Beasts empowered by that unknown force compare to Lorraine Tower? They were quite doubtful.
