Фэн Юань didn’t know, but Zhou Qi understood. He lived with these wild spirit beasts every day, so he quickly realized what was happening. Holding the neck of the fluffy dog that had run back to avoid "chasing and killing," he looked into its eyes with a sinister smile and said,
"Looks like the lesson I gave you last time wasn’t deep enough. You still dare to repeat the same trick? Do you think your big brother just can’t bear to discipline you?"
With that, he placed the over-nourished fluffy dog in front of the larger fluffy dog and began exaggerating the dangers of over-nutrition. For some reason, Фэн Юань felt that as Zhou Qi continued speaking, the momentum of the large fluffy dog seemed to become stronger and stronger.
Veronia looked puzzlingly at the over-nourished fluffy dog and asked,
"Probably because the environment in this area is more harmonious. After all, this area has abundant resources, and they don’t need to fight for resources aggressively. Plus, there’s a patrolman here, so compared to real wild areas, their vigilance and such are much weaker."
Waving his hand, Фэн Юань continued to greet that group of wild spirit beasts for inspection. In fact, this is also the reason why humans rarely set up inspection points in the wild. Most patrolman huts don’t delve too deep into the wild. In some areas, they have to patrol from a distance to ensure they don’t disturb the lives of the wild spirit beasts.
Even if the patrolmen are there to protect these wild spirit beasts and their habitats, the presence of humans will inevitably have an impact on them, regardless of their good intentions.
As the inspection drew to a close, the little rock wolf pack also appeared at the patrolman’s hut. Compared to other spirit beasts, Фэн Юань inspected the little rock wolves’ pack more carefully.
However, the inspection results did not show any issues with this group of little rock wolves and their evolved forms.
After getting a result of peace and safety, the little rock wolves quickly left the wetlands. For them, this wetland was very incompatible, after all, as earth system spirit beasts, this humid environment made them very uncomfortable. Even Xiao Ji, who had overcome its fear of water, didn’t feel as uncomfortable.
"Hmm, it can almost be confirmed that the area below has special earth system energy radiation. Luckily, the intensity of that earth system energy radiation is not great, and it’s not some kind of alien energy; otherwise, there would definitely be anomalies in the little rock wolves’ body data."
Binding the inspection report, Фэн Юань said to Zhou Qi. At this time, Ци Чэнь and Dou Yanlan had long been outside playing with the wild spirit beasts, especially since Ah Mu and Cotton weren’t particularly averse to these clean water sources.
Of course, this also had to do with what Фэн Юань had said before. In Фэн Юань’s view, if they just sat there and watched him inspect the spirit beasts, he would feel uneasy. After all, Ци Чэнь and the others came here not for fun but to find a second beast tamer they could bond with.
Veronia glanced at Фэн Юань and asked,
"Is it confirmed to be unrelated to Kastantos?"
"Can’t be fully certain, but it can certainly be confirmed to be unrelated to the authentic Kastantos, because the forces of the mythical era have quite special characteristics. Even if it’s special power like rock peak power, it cannot be avoided. The living environment and needs of the little rock wolves just coincidentally resemble it."
As he said this, Фэн Юань took the report of the little rock wolves pack and placed it in front of Veronia, saying,
"These data prove that the little rock wolves have not been contaminated by special alien energy. This means that the special energy is likely of post-mythical era type."
Hearing Фэн Юань say so, Veronia didn’t pick up the report to go through it. She had quite a bit of faith in Фэн Юань’s judgment, given his prowess was well established.
Tamur circled around Фэн Юань and said,
"A replica of Kastantos’ ancient relic?"
"Possibly, but it may not necessarily be related to you. Although Kastantos technology is hardly obtained anywhere apart from your place, the distortions and omissions during the transmission of information can lead to unpredictable changes that no one can control."
Looking at Tamur, Фэн Юань comforted him. He was concerned about the psychological pressure on him since, as far as he knew, the full information on Kastantos technology was only present in the Hul Masah Sea where Tamur resided. Even the few dynasties that mastered the technology sourced it from Tamur.
But for some reason, Фэн Юань always felt that things were strange because of the Resonance Stone... was it truly searching for the Holy City where Tamur rests in the Hul Masah Sea?
Фэн Юань was not deeply versed in Kastantos technology, but he always felt that the bizarre stone relics scattered throughout the Divine Land Region might not necessarily be the influence of Tamur.
Could it be that Kastantos also avoided the Great Destruction for some reason?
Shaking his head, Фэн Юань casually picked up Xiao Ji and said,
As Xiao Ji, in the form of an eggshell chicken, leapt onto Фэн Юань’s head, it chirped happily. Despite the outside water posing a great threat to its current form, having been here for so long, Xiao Ji was almost dozing off.
Veronia, sitting on a rainbow bubble, gazed at Фэн Юань’s departing figure and ponderously said,
"What on earth did he mean by that? Can distorted information transmission really recreate a technology resembling that of Kastantos? Are humans truly that capable?"
Tamur circled around Veronia and said,
"His words may simply imply... survivors of Kastantos... or ruins..."
Although Tamur had no nostalgia for the mythical era, since it wasn’t a life form from that era, it could still understand the restlessness Veronia and Agunas felt in this era.
Hearing Tamur’s explanation, Veronia shuddered, looking at Tamur with a forced smile, she said,
"You’re... joking, right?"
Shaking its body, Tamur didn’t explain further and floated towards the door.
However, Veronia whispered to herself,
"Are there truly any lucky survivors... humans..."
Zhou Qi sneaked a glance at Veronia but pretended not to hear anything. He wasn’t Фэн Юань; when facing these Божественный зверьs, he remained very cautious. After all, he represented Great Xia; he couldn’t and wouldn’t allow any Божественный зверь to harbor hostility or dissatisfaction towards Great Xia because of him.
However, he couldn’t help but think about Veronia’s words. That group of Божественный зверьs didn’t seem all that... carefree.
Tightly clinging onto Фэн Юань’s head, Xiao Ji watched Фэн Юань as he teased the young spirit beasts, but it wasn’t angry. After thinking it over, Xiao Ji found these young spirit beasts rather amusing.
Unfortunately, there were a lot of water puddles in this area, so Xiao Ji didn’t dare to leave Фэн Юань’s head for fear of accidentally getting its fur wet.
Even if it were to revert to its eagle form, the feeling of being soaked wouldn’t be pleasant.
Фэн Юань hadn’t paid attention to Xiao Ji’s thoughts. These wild spirit beasts, perhaps due to Zhou Qi’s presence, were curious about humans. Unlike normal wild spirit beasts that were wary of people, these wild spirit beasts even actively stuck to Фэн Юань and the others.
Looking towards where Ци Чэнь and the others were, Фэн Юань was a bit disappointed to find that these spirit beasts didn’t capture their interest.
Although there were quite a few rare spirit beasts here that could work well with their Ah Mu and Cotton, it seemed like the right opportunity hadn’t yet presented itself.
After playing in the wetlands for a while, Фэн Юань and the others bid farewell to Zhou Qi. After all, they had seen the spirit beasts here, and since there wasn’t a suitable one, they naturally needed to make haste for other places.
Initially, Zhou Qi thought about sending Фэн Юань and the others off, but Фэн Юань expressed that it was unnecessary and pointed to the stack of reports he hadn’t finished reading.
After all, Фэн Юань had just skimmed through them, and what information lay hidden in those data required Zhou Qi to figure out on his own.
Proceeding slowly down the rock cave passage, the group returned to the foothills. By then, the sun was setting, and night was approaching.
Turning to look at the two people behind him, Фэн Юань asked,
"Do you think we should set up camp here, or keep moving?"
"If we’re camping here, I think we’d be better off returning to the patrolman’s hut for a night’s stay, but if we wander around..."
Dou Yanlan, sounding uncertain, wasn’t sure if there were any spirit beasts active nearby. However, with Veronia and Tamur around, at least safety wasn’t a concern.
