Divine Beast Creator
Chapter 2773: Chapter 2774: Change
In the sunset, the boat gradually docked, and as they disembarked, Feng Yuan looked around and said
"We’re back~ I wonder if there’s been any change~"
"It’s only been two days, what do you think has changed?"
Agunas glanced at Feng Yuan with irritation and said, this guy always talks nonsense, considering that it’s the post-war rebuilding period right now, even during normal times, what big change could occur in just two days?
"Like the restaurant starting to open or something, it’s about time to find a place to eat, right."
Feng Yuan looked up at the sky and said, Veronia glanced at Zhou Weijun not far away and said
"That’s simple, just ask him for a meal, isn’t it? Moreover, you still need to inquire about news from him."
Feng Yuan hadn’t been to the Eternal Frozen Soil, deep in the Northern Ice Plains, even with Feng Yuan’s authority, collecting intelligence wasn’t easy, or rather, Zhou Weijun already had complete information, so why bother?
"That’s right~"
Reminded by Veronia, Feng Yuan chuckled and went over to chat with Zhou Weijun. The other party didn’t mind Feng Yuan asking for a meal, or rather, he was also planning to go to a restaurant for dinner.
Compared to cooking food himself for one or two hours, he was a bit lazy, at least unless it’s a day off, he didn’t want to bother.
In the evening, Feng Yuan didn’t go home but stayed in the dormitory for the night. Compared to before, Maomu Academy was much livelier now, with teachers and their spirit beasts back at school. As for garrisoning?
Currently, it’s not necessary for academy teachers. Normally during combat sequences, especially during wartime, military beastmasters are arranged first, followed by the city defense army. However, since the city defense army also has the responsibility of protecting the city, when deploying the city defense army, personnel from support forces like the Beast Taming Academy are needed to fill the frontline.
As for the special duty team and Zhou Weijun and them? They belong to the city’s defense sequence and won’t be chosen for external expeditions. Academy teachers are similarly uninvolved, but if needed, local teachers may be drawn into the expedition forces, though refusal is another matter.
With returning expedition forces and no plans for further external expeditions, the city defense sequence, including the city defense army, will begin transitioning defenses.
The original military relied on numbers to win, and overall their beastmasters weren’t particularly strong. However, this time the Ascension Stone was directly given to all beastmasters who participated in the battle. Apart from the deceased whose stones were passed to their kin, others had their stones bound personally, so they can’t stay.
As a result, a large number of Legendary Level military beastmasters have returned, temporarily completely replacing the original city defense sequence.
Previously, the city defense army carried the main defense because their individual strength was relatively higher than the military.
Now, the two are almost equal, and with the military’s large number of beastmasters, this major exchange in defense occurred.
As the defense exchange proceeds, the academy professors involved in defense tasks suddenly have free time, and although they could leave Maomu City, no one does so.
Even though many forces have started taking the offensive, cities still face the potential to be attacked, not to mention everyone is busy with post-war rebuilding, so there isn’t much to do even if they leave.
"They’ve all returned, unexpectedly they’re quite fortunate."
Veronia sensed the familiar spirit beasts at Maomu Academy and couldn’t help but exclaim. Feng Yuan glanced at Veronia, somewhat irritated, and said
"Isn’t that normal? They’re at least Legendary Level beastmasters, and Maomu City hasn’t faced any outrageous attacks, anything was solved immediately. With their strength, it’s unlikely they’d be in trouble."
Though Maomu City also had its share of casualties, the majority were beastmasters of relatively lower strength, not many Legendary Level beastmasters were lost, except in rare cases like Baiman City.
Of course, because of their strength, they haven’t had much rest either. Although it’s been two days since their return, they’re still recovering, even Gladys is staying in the dorm room, not wanting to move.
Although she wasn’t yet Legendary Level, due to the special nature of the Mordan Clan, her importance was no less than other Legendary Level teachers, especially since Feng Yuan devastated the Mordan Empire in the imperial timeline, leaving them unable to dispatch troops for support.
This enabled Gladys’ prophecy of their attack, as there’s a gap between her prophetic abilities and the Mordan Empire’s.
Gladys’ prophecy could only provide vague information, but for Maomu City, it’s highly useful, at least they could avoid being ambushed unknowingly.
However, after consecutive prophecies, both Gladys and Anna are utterly exhausted, and it’s hard to say who’s more tired compared to the participating teachers.
After two days, some teachers were merely taking walks within Maomu Academy.
"Seems those teachers have been battling quite often recently."
Feng Yuan noticed the fatigued expressions of the passing teachers and muttered. Although they were curious why there were students on campus at this time, they trusted the gatekeepers and didn’t inquire further, or rather, they weren’t in the mood to worry.
"Isn’t that quite normal? Maomu City’s Legendary Level beastmasters aren’t as numerous as you think, but now it’s different."
Veronia chuckled and said, no doubt, the Ascension Stone effectively created a large group of semi-developed Legendary Level beastmasters, although their strength still falls short compared to genuine Legendary Level beastmasters, they’re significantly stronger than before.
However, prior to this, genuine Legendary Level beastmasters were indeed rare, otherwise, Maomu City wouldn’t have needed to draft Maomu Academy teachers for city defense.
Nonetheless, now it’s not as pressing, at least the military’s large number of Legendary Level beastmasters can fully support.
"Ah, a rare time of peace."
Looking up at the sky, Feng Yuan sighed, Agunas swished its tail and said
"If they were to fight like at the start with current resources, we wouldn’t have continued supporting the humans."
"I don’t think it would come to that? At least apart from the Qi Realm Timeline, the wars and empires shouldn’t be so devastating."
Feng Yuan said while stroking his chin. The Qi Realm Timeline was an exception, not to mention Legendary Level beastmasters, even Divine Beasts would struggle, since the Qi Realm’s defensive capabilities are excessively formidable, the world’s barrier is like a Divine Artifact division.
"How is the Qi Realm Timeline different?"
Agunas looked at Feng Yuan in confusion, though the Qi Realm Timeline was special, it shouldn’t be to this extent.
"Hmm, bypassing the Qi Realm for attacks wouldn’t matter, but going headlong into the Qi Realm, that place... Remember, the world’s barrier is there, and with its strength, splitting the troops isn’t an issue."
Feng Yuan didn’t say much more, the barrier alone was enough trouble, and Agunas swishing its tail said
"The Qi Realm has a world barrier?"
This news was something it hadn’t heard before, not because Feng Yuan deliberately withheld it, but because that thing was encountered only at the deepest level of their Qi Realm exploration, Feng Yuan’s prior intelligence overlooked it understandably.
"Of course it does, it’s as strong as the world’s barrier itself."
Veronia glanced at Agunas and said, swishing its tail, Agunas said
"That is indeed quite dangerous."
"Mm-hmm, you were even thinking of attacking the Qi Realm."
"No, just saying during war, it cannot be ignored, even if I hope to avoid conflict."
Feng Yuan shrugged helplessly and said, whether conflicts arise isn’t his decision. Given the current conduct of authorities, the Qi Realm Timeline is bound to attract their attention.
Before this, the war timeline is probably already a battleground, no idea if War Qichen and the others can manage.
Feng Yuan was somewhat worried but didn’t ask Agunas unless he intended to intervene personally, otherwise knowing these things only brought added concerns.
The next day, Qi Chen and the others approached Feng Yuan, seeking the Mythical Transformation card. Although curious why they departed so soon, Feng Yuan didn’t stop them.
Qi Chen wouldn’t act impulsively, especially with Dou Yanlan accompanying him. As for potential dangers? Wasn’t this expected from the beginning.
After sending Qi Chen off, Feng Yuan began preparations to head towards Eternal Frozen Soil.
