Quiet.
Dead silence.
The whole room fell silent.
Dongling, cemetery... When these two words are put together, a series of images instantly emerge in everyone's mind.
"Hiss - I have goose bumps all over my body!" Qi Yue said while rubbing her arms and shivering while hugging Lin Weiwei.
Shen Ruoyan also moved a little closer to her sister.
The lone Liu Xiaoruan looked left and right, then moved stealthily towards Qiao Bai.
kindness.
The main reason is that Professor Qiao Bai's big bird looks very evil-repelling! Fu Tianguang stood still, but if you look closely, you will find that his eyes are empty. Li Gan and Lu Wentao are not much better. Their overly rich imagination makes the expressions on their faces unpredictable.
Zhang Hongyi stood there without moving, but the War Blood Lion King beside him already looked eager to try.
What? A cemetery?
No problem!
It, the lion king, is not afraid of difficulties and moves forward bravely for the cat in its heart!
If he hadn't known the way and if Zhang Hongyi had grabbed his tail with one hand, the War Blood Lion King would have really rushed out like this.
Seeing everyone's hair standing on end, Luo Yiming quickly said, "Dongling is indeed a cemetery, but it is not quite the same as you imagined... Let's not talk about whether there are ghosts. Even if there are ghosts in Dongling, they can't do such a thing!"
Everyone turned to look at Luo Yiming with some confusion.
Are you so sure?
Upon seeing this, the seniors from Honghu University nodded repeatedly.
"Don't be scared, Dongling is not an ordinary cemetery. Those buried in Dongling are all beastmasters who sacrificed their lives while resisting the beast tide!"
"Yes! Most of them have no family. Dongling is their resting place and proof that future generations will remember them!"
"Although I don't know what happened to that egg thief... but even if there are ghosts in Dongling, they are definitely not bad people!"
"Some of our predecessors are buried there..."
Their voices became smaller and smaller.
The expressions of fear on the faces of other people who were still afraid gradually disappeared.
ah……
"There's really nothing to be afraid of." Qiao Bai nodded and said.
How could a place where the souls of heroes rest in peace be so scary? "Combining the existing clues... did you record the appearance of the extraordinary creature just now?" Qiao Bai continued, "There were those extraordinary creatures that originally lived nearby. Which of them is most likely to evolve?"
In fact, after seeing the appearance of that extraordinary creature, Qiao Bai had some ideas in his mind.
"That area is inhabited by pets with flying attributes, various birds and feathered creatures... After all, it is a new evolutionary form, and there may be quite a lot of them." Luo Yiming quickly flipped through the information in his hand, with an embarrassed expression: "In terms of tribes, there are mite bats and feathered nighthawks that are active at night and dormant during the day, four-winged white-throated birds and blue spirit birds that are active during the day and dormant at night, and there are also a group of scattered birds and other extraordinary creatures with flying attributes..."
Luo Yiming read out the names of those extraordinary creatures one by one.
It sounds like both are possible, but not certain.
"Hmm..." As she listened, a female beastmaster from Honghu University suddenly showed a hesitant expression on her face.
The classmate next to her noticed it immediately: "Sister Yan, is there something wrong?"
The two people's movements were a little big, and other people in the room also noticed them. Luo Yiming stopped and looked at the two people.
Qiao Bai also looked over.
"What did you find?" Luo Yiming looked at the female student who first showed abnormality.
"Weaver bird, Teacher Luo, you just said that this extraordinary creature is also nearby, right?" Yu Yan pulled the end of her medium-long hair, smacked her lips, and asked back with a somewhat conflicted expression.
Luo Yiming was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Yes, there is a weaver bird nearby."
"Do you suspect that the extraordinary creature just now has some relationship with the weaver bird?" As he said this, Luo Yiming was about to retrieve the information of the weaver bird.
The Supernatural Creatures Park of Honghu University is very large, and there are many supernatural creatures inside. Finding them one by one is indeed like looking for a needle in a haystack. However, as long as they can accurately locate a certain supernatural creature, they can find out the origin and experience of this supernatural creature from the school's database.
The weaver bird is a supernatural creature with flying and fairy attributes. It is a small supernatural creature, about the size of a basketball, round, chubby and somewhat cute.
Looking at the cute appearance of the weaver bird in the photo that Luo Yiming found, and then recalling the glimpse of the egg thief not long ago, everyone really couldn't connect these two extraordinary creatures together.
"If this weaver bird is the one I know, then it may indeed have something to do with this matter." Yu Yan said.
"Can you tell me more about it?" Qiao Bai looked at the senior who looked to be in her twenties and had a calm expression. "Is there anything special about the weaving bird you know?"
Qiao Bai's attitude was gentle, without any aggressive emotion.
Yu Yan glanced at him, reached into her pocket and took out a box of mint cigarettes. Then she realized that there were people around and this was not a suitable place to smoke, so she leaned back and supported herself with her hands on the operating table behind her.
"The weaving bird I know is the pet of a senior student from the combat department who is two years older than me."
No one interrupted Yu Yan.
The senior sister's pet appeared in a park where other people can contract pets... Looking at Yu Yan's appearance, it is clear that this senior sister is not a bad person and will not abandon her pet.
"Senior died in the battle against the beast tide two and a half years ago. Most of her pets died with her. The only one who survived was the weakest one, Weaver Bird."
The room fell silent again.
But it was different from the eerie silence that one gets after hearing about a cemetery. It was really because... everyone didn't know what to say.
No tears.
But my heart inexplicitly felt a little heavy.
"Su Que, a third-level beastman of the combat department of Honghu University, has been admitted to the Central Region Advanced Beast Taming Academy. He unfortunately died in the battle against the beast tide two and a half years ago while trying to protect ordinary people. A sixth-level fire dragon was killed, a fifth-level violent giant bear was killed, a fifth-level steel armor beast was killed, a fifth-level water dragonfly was killed, and only a fourth-level weaver bird survived." Luo Yiming read out the information about the weaver bird in the file in a flat voice.
Just a few lines.
It seems that one can glimpse traces of past battles.
"After going through school procedures to confirm that the weaver bird had no malicious intent to attack, it was ultimately placed on the school campus."
"Its beastmaster, Su Que, was finally buried in Dongling." Qiao Bai said in an affirmative tone.
Yu Yan nodded.
"That's right."
"Birds and Aventurine, these two words are combined together, and I just happened to hear the name of the weaving bird, so I subconsciously associated it with this incident." Yu Yan sighed and rubbed his forehead with one hand: "As for whether it is true or not, I am not sure, and I haven't seen my senior sister's weaving bird for a long time."
"I went to see it when it was first sent to the park...but the weaving bird is not in a good condition." Yu Yan shrugged and said, "For a pet that has lost its beastmaster and companions, this is understandable, right?"
No one can utter the words incomprehensible.
Suddenly, I lost my beastmaster and companions, and I am the only one who survived...
They don't know what Weaver Bird's mood was at that time, but if you put yourself in her shoes... it probably wasn't very good. Not being emo until death was considered strong.
"I went there ten times a year and it was considered good to see it once. Later, my courses increased, the battle tasks became heavy, and I also had to train my pet. Gradually, I stopped going there. I don't know how senior sister's weaving bird is doing."
"If it suddenly evolves or suddenly awakens...it doesn't seem impossible?"
That makes some sense.
"But no matter what, stealing pet eggs and other people's pets is not something that can be understood." After Qiao Bai's words came out, was stunned for a moment and then everyone nodded.
yes.
Sadness is sadness, sadness is sadness, why don't you steal pet beast eggs and pet beasts after you evolve? "Go to Dongling." Qiao Bai made a decisive decision.
Luo Yiming would naturally not stop them, but it was unrealistic for so many people to go. In the end, the only ones who went together were Qi Yue, Lin Weiwei, Li Gan, who came with Qiao Bai, and Luo Yiming.
Fu Tianguang, Liu Xiaoruan and others were eager to follow.
They also knew that this was not the time for them to cause trouble and that so many people were not needed.
In the end, they could only look at Qiao Bai and sigh - hey! Why aren't they Qiao Bai's good friends! Otherwise, wouldn't they be able to cling to him at this time!
Then...the shameless one showed up.
“Ah—roar—!” The War Blood Lion King rubbed his claws and suddenly jumped out.
Bring on the Lion! Bring on the Lion!
The lion wants to go too!
The other people, who had no idea that the Battle Blood Lion King fell in love with the Cat and Cat Bug at first sight, instantly looked at Zhang Hongyi with shocked eyes, as if to say: I didn’t expect you to be this kind of Zhang Hongyi!
Zhang Hongyi, who was suddenly forced to die socially: "..."
Like a thorn in the back.
Sitting on pins and needles.
The attention he received when he became the runner-up was not as hot and hurtful as this moment.
Zhang Hongyi stretched out his hand towards the Blood Lion King, as if he wanted to dissuade him from fighting the Blood Lion King.
Before he took action, Xiao Wu took action first.
Xiaowu: (`へ*)ノ
I am so annoyed! Do you understand why you should shut up? I will help you understand!
Xiao Wu attacked boldly!
With one blow of its wings, Xiao Wu blew the War Blood Lion King away more than ten meters!
Stun!
Fight the Blood Lion King KO!
Suddenly, the room was plunged into a strange atmosphere.
Everyone was communicating frantically with their eyes.
"Did you see that? One wing! Only one wing was used!"
"Good boy! He didn't show his true level in the finals! This is Xiao Wu's true strength!"
"Is this a pet that a normal person can cultivate? I am convinced, I am really convinced, I admit defeat!"
A group of people were making faces and grimacing so hard that their eyelids were almost cramping.
Qiao Bai took a look and then looked away, just pretending that he didn't see what they were talking about. That was not the point.
"Xiao Wu, stop fighting." Qiao Bai waved at the angry Xiao Wu, and Xiao Wu gave up chasing the Blood Lion King and continuing to beat him up, and fell on Qiao Bai's arm, still looking angry with its feathers exploding.
Xiaowu: ╭(╯^╰)╮
The bird's little brothers are gone, but the stupid lion is still showing off his muscles?
I don't like it! Beat it up! Qiao Bai patted the hair on the little blackbird's head with amusement, feeling a little amused and relieved.
Oh.
Dabao has grown up.
Unlike Qiao Bai who knew that the cat and bug was most likely fine and seemed to be quite happy now, from Xiao Wu's perspective, it seemed that his little brother was kidnapped in front of him.
Even though Xiao Wu always competes for favor with cats and bugs, he even looks like he dislikes them.
but.
Xiaowu: Only birds can bully a bird's younger brother? Other guys bully it? Die! Baring fangs and claws.jpg Ahem.
In short, seeing the tragic scene of the battle with the Blood Lion King, everyone else calmed down and obeyed.
“Um…” Yu Yan hesitated for a while before finally standing up: “Can you take me with you? If that extraordinary creature is really my senior’s weaving bird… maybe I can help you communicate with it.”
“It still remembers what I said.”
Swish swish——
Everyone else looked at Yu Yan as if she were a brave man.
The brave Yu Yan himself: "..."
Qiao Bai: "Then let's go together."
…
Dongling.
It is quite a long distance from Honghu University to Dongling. The further you go towards Dongling, the more secluded it becomes, and the fewer people there are.
No luxurious decoration.
There was no fanfare.
Dongling stands quietly yet firmly on the edge of the city. The city wall can be seen from afar, and if you look from a higher angle you can see the boundless forbidden land outside the city wall.
"Isn't this location a bit bad?" Facing Dong Ling, Qi Yue's voice unconsciously became softer: "It's difficult to sweep their graves, and there's a city wall not far away..."
"No, this location is just right." Luo Yiming laughed when he heard this: "The location of Dongling was chosen by the beast masters of Xingcheng together, so that after they die in the future, they can still see the beasts being destroyed wave after wave at the forefront."
"They also thought that if people still had souls after death, they could bless and protect the new beastmasters who were on the front line to return safely."
Qi Yue stopped talking for a moment.
Qiao Bai also turned his head to look at the rows of white tombstones outside.
One piece after another.
It does not have the eeriness of a cemetery, but instead carries an indescribable sense of security—as if they are still guarding the city after death, resisting the invasion of the beast tide.
As if noticing the looks of Qiao Bai and the others, Luo Yiming spoke in a light tone with a hint of helplessness: "With the advancement of technology and the deeper exploration and research of extraordinary creatures, in fact, in the past hundred years, the number of beastmasters who have sacrificed in the beast tide has been decreasing."
"But every beast tide is a battle after all. Since it is a battle, sacrifice is inevitable. No matter how small the number is, as long as it befalls one person, death will come."
"Su Que is an excellent student... Alas." Luo Yiming said and shook his head.
"The beast tide two and a half years ago... I feel like I have never heard of it at all." Lin Weiwei blinked, with a bit of confusion in her eyes.
Luo Yiming laughed again: "Xingcheng is a special city. The number of beast tide attacks is much more than other cities, and the battles are also much more tragic and serious than other cities."
"As long as it's not a huge beast tide, we won't spread the news of small or medium-sized beast tides. There's no need to cause panic in other cities."
This is commonplace for Star City beastmasters and ordinary people.
They have the fastest response speed and the best emergency measures.
As the capital, it is far superior to other cities and provinces in terms of technology, economy and other aspects. The country also strongly supports it in various policies. There is a reason for this.
"Professor Qiao, I'm not saying that the pet evolution major is bad, but it's such a waste of talent for you to study this major!" As he spoke, Luo Yiming couldn't help but look at Qiao Bai with great sorrow: "If you were a combat major..."
"Teacher Luo, everyone has their own choices." Qiao Bai didn't say anything, but Yu Yan interrupted Luo Yiming: "Besides, isn't the pet evolution major also good? Professor Qiao Bai may be a leader in this field in the future."
Luo Yiming coughed twice and looked embarrassed.
Qiao Bai was curious, if he was a combat type... what would it be like? Before Qiao Bai asked, the car stopped at the gate of Dongling. Qiao Bai put aside his doubts for the time being, and the group got out of the car and walked towards Dongling.
Enter the gate.
Go up the stairs.
The road in the middle is not wide, and on both sides are rows of tombstones that have turned yellow due to wind and sun.
The first few rows, dozens of rows of tombstones, are distributed relatively densely and have very similar degrees of wear and tear. They should be tombstones from the same period.
There are no photos on it.
It simply records their date of birth and death, their names and the names of their pets, and behind the tombstone are a few lines of seal engravings recording their past.
Qiao Bai looked carefully and found that most of these tombstones were from five or six hundred years ago.
At that time, Yulong and Honghu had just been established.
As we walked further, the middle road gradually became wider. The tombstones on both sides became more refined, with photos on them. The colors gradually transitioned from black and white to color.
Time has gradually approached modern times from four hundred years ago.
"The original Dongling was built bit by bit by ordinary people in this city who gathered together spontaneously and voluntarily after the beast tide ended."
"Including those tombstones and the words on them, they were all carved by ordinary people who were rescued or by the companions of the deceased beastmaster."
"Later, Dongling was brought under the unified management of the Beast Taming Alliance." Luo Yiming led Qiao Bai and the others to the back and found Qiao Bai observing the tombstones on both sides. He said lightly.
"On the basis of not destroying the original tombstone and the people's wishes, the alliance built the back part and also included the front part in daily management."
"Whenever a beast tide comes, before the battle begins, the beast masters of Star City will spontaneously come to Dongling to pay homage."
May the heroic spirits of our ancestors bless you.
We fought bravely and killed the enemy.
It would be great if you could return safely.
If you can't return safely... then we can stay together in the future.
Their mood grew heavier with every step they took, and even Qiao Bai couldn't help but sigh slightly in his heart.
Why.
Perhaps this world does not have the painful history of his country, but this world also has pain on another level, and a long-lasting battle that has not ended to this day.
finally.
Everyone came to the tombstone at the back.
Compared with most of the previous tombstones, the tombstones in this area are much newer and the colors of the photos on them are also brighter.
The lively young man even prepared his epitaph for himself early on.
【Bye, I’m hanging up first! 】
[Princess, please get up]
[When you see this line of words, it means you are too close to me. This is too ambiguous, tuituitui! ]
[The epitaph will only be visible for three days]
[Thank you for coming to see me. I will come to see you when I have time.]
…
“Puff——”
Several people couldn't help laughing at first, and then their expressions became sad.
Don’t these lively and humorous words just show that they are still young people with young souls and young lives. If they were still alive, they should have a bright life instead of just sleeping under this cold tombstone.
"This is really…" Lin Weiwei's expression was somewhat confused, and she seemed to be hesitant to speak: "Weren't they afraid when facing the beast tide? Didn't they think about dying when they learned that they had to resist the beast tide?"
What she wanted to say more was...didn't these beastmasters ever regret it?
"Logistics, support... In addition to the front line, there are still many jobs that need beastmasters, but they are safer."
"Even the beastmasters who were about to go to the front line to resist the beast tide had the choice to regret and become deserters. Life is only once, and how to live is a personal choice."
"But..." Luo Yiming paused for a moment, "Whenever a beast tide comes, there are many beastmasters who volunteer to go to the front line, but only a handful of them would desert."
Yu Yan heard a snort from the side.
"What kind of deserter?"
"I can't afford to lose this person."
Luo Yiming laughed.
Qiao Bai also exhaled from his chest.
Why.
This atmosphere is created... As long as the egg thief didn't do anything excessive, Qiao Bai felt that it was not surprising that he was not angry, right?
Yes.
The closer they got to Dongling, the clearer the connection between Qiao Bai and the Maomao Chong became. He was sure that the Maomao Chong was indeed here.
The atmosphere in Dongling is solemn, and the deeds of our ancestors make people admire them and shed tears.
But...
The premise is that Qiao Bai did not feel the excited, throbbing, and seemingly ready to burst (×) mood of Maomao Chong.
Qiao Bai: “…”
Suspect.
Very doubtful.
What on earth is Catworm doing?!
As they walked, the group suddenly stopped.
"Is that... the tombstone of Senior Su Que?" Although everyone had never been to Dongling and had no idea in advance where Su Que's tombstone was, they still recognized it at a glance - oh, that tombstone must be Su Que's tombstone.
Because there was a large black mass curled up in front of the tombstone.
Even when curled up into a ball, it still looks quite substantial.
"It's that extraordinary creature."
"It's Senior's weaving bird."
Luo Yiming and Yu Yan spoke at the same time.
Yu Yan stepped forward and said, "I don't know what the situation is with Zhiniao now. I will try to see if I can get close to Zhiniao and communicate with him."
Luo Yiming was a little hesitant, but then he looked at Qiao Bai and his group behind him - they were all high school students.
Except for Qiao Bai, the others didn't even get a college admission letter.
Who knows what the mentality of the evolved weaver bird will be like? Will it suddenly go crazy? "Then be careful." Luo Yiming warned: "Release your pet, just in case."
After hesitating for a moment, Yu Yan released a bird pet, Luoyin Bird: "My Luoyin Bird is the one that my senior sister helped me contract. Zhiniao knows it, so I'll go over first."
After saying that, Yu Yan walked step by step towards the weaver bird, which looked a little more weird and ferocious after its evolution.
"Zhizhi." Yu Yan stood two meters away from the evolved weaver bird and called its name softly, which was also the name that Su Que, her senior schoolmate, told her.
The large ball on the ground heard the familiar name and moved slightly twice, but its wings still firmly protected the two eggs and a pet in its arms. It only showed its head and turned to look in the direction where the voice came from.
The golden-gray eyes revealed a strange and alert expression, and the sharp beak did not show any cuteness that belonged to the weaverbird.
"li——ji——"
It flapped its wings but did not attack Yu Yan, but it was scolding and warning Yu Yan - don't come near.
Yu Yan subconsciously took a step back, then wanted to move forward.
“li——lili——!”
A gray tornado suddenly rushed towards the direction of the remaining smoke.
Yu Yan: "Shield!"
At the same time, Yu Yan retreated quickly, not daring to take a single step forward.
The Luoyin bird used its shield to deflect the attack of the weaving bird and quickly retreated to Yu Yan's side.
"This..." Luo Yiming frowned when he saw this: "Did it recognize you or not?"
"And he attacks humans just by getting close…" The safety factor of the Weaver Bird needs to be re-evaluated, and there's a good chance he'll be killed for failing to meet the standards.
Different from other cities.
There are no rules in Xingcheng regarding releasing pets into forbidden areas.
The situation is stable and they have been released back into various parks.
The situation is unstable, kill.
"Teacher Luo, Zhiniao didn't do it on purpose!" Yu Yan quickly interrupted Luo Yiming: "I suspect... I suspect... I suspect..."
After a long while of grunting, Yu Yan finally managed to utter, "Right, right, right! I suspect the weaving bird is trying to protect the pet egg in its arms, so it attacks anyone and any pet that approaches it!"
"This is a biological instinct to protect its cubs!"
Luo Yiming: “…”
Luo Yiming: Go ahead and keep making it up. It just depends on whether I believe it or not.
"Don't even mention that those two pet eggs are not weaverbird eggs. Even if they are, maternal instinct and protective behavior are rare among supernatural creatures." Luo Yiming said with a look of sarcasm.
This is not just a casual remark.
Most supernatural creatures, especially the wild ones.
It's hard to survive in the wild by yourself, let alone protect the cubs?
When they are safe, they can still show a little maternal love.
Danger?
Being attacked? Those who abandon their cubs and run away, and come back to check on them when they are safe, are considered to be relatively loving mothers.
What's worse is that they just push the egg out and run away.
The egg is gone? Just create another one.
Some extraordinary creatures become endangered because of their own actions.
As for the extraordinary creatures that protect their cubs... there are some, but not many, and even if they do, they are protecting their own cubs.
Which extraordinary creature is protecting a cub that was snatched away and is not its own child at all?
Yu Yan: “…”
I can't continue making up stories. I really can't continue making up stories.
But Yu Yan really couldn't bear to watch Senior Su Que's last pet die.
"Professor Qiao, have you seen anything?" Yu Yan's mind moved, and thinking of Qiao Bai's identity as a professor of pet evolution, she turned to Qiao Bai for help.
I hope Qiao Bai can say a few words. As long as Qiao Bai really discovered something and has evidence, the weaver bird will not face death.
Thinking of Yu Yan, I felt a little guilty.
After all, it was Zhiniao who wronged Qiao Bai first, and she wanted Qiao Bai to speak for Zhiniao...
"I know you want to save the weaver bird, but Professor Qiao Bai is a human being, not a machine. He can just take a look at it..." Luo Yiming was interrupted by Qiao Bai before he could finish his complaints.
"Well... I think what Senior Sister Yu Yan said makes some sense." At this time, Qiao Bai spoke up: "The Weaver Bird evolved, and it should be protecting those three... two pet eggs."
Swish, swish, swish——
In an instant, all eyes fell on Qiao Bai.
Different from the remaining smoke.
Yu Yan might have made up stories out of his desire to save the oriole.
But for Qiao Bai.
There is absolutely no need.
The evolved Weaver Bird snatched away the pet egg that Qiao Bai rewarded, and then snatched away Qiao Bai's pet. A simple word "grudge" cannot summarize what the evolved Weaver Bird did.
Qiao Bai also took the initiative to stand up and speak for Zhiniao's evolution...
"Don't look at me like that. I'm not just saying that casually. I really heard and saw something."
Facing the gazes of Qi Yue, Lin Weiwei, Li Gan, Luo Yiming and Yu Yan, Qiao Bai smiled and said.
Just when Yu Yan went to contact the weaving bird.
Qiao Bai unlocked his talent skills
【Eye of Insight】
【The power that should be given】
start up!
[Pet: Night Bird]
[Attribute: Dark + Fairy]
【Variety: Intermediate and Advanced+】
[Level: Advanced Level 6]
[Skills: Pecking, Ghost Bird Crying... Night Wandering]
[Successfully evolved*]
[Bloodline Awakening: 50%]
[Talented Skill: Raising Children]
[Raising Children: The talent in the blood allows Night Bird to have a special sense of all unborn and soon-to-be-born pet eggs, and can adjust the state of pet eggs to the best and the talent to the best in the shortest time (not fully developed, can evolve)]
Nocturnal bird... Qiao Bai was stunned for a moment, and then he found another name for this bird from his memory, which is also a more widely known name but only known by him now - Guhuo Bird.
It is recorded in the ancient books of his original country.
The daughter of the Emperor of Heaven, a night-flying bird, and the Guhuo bird.
The three names correspond to the same legend.
Then Qiao Bai discovered——
More than once, certain extraordinary creatures corresponded to other legends he knew.
For example, the evolutionary path of the little crow is the three-legged golden crow, and the nocturnal bird in front of us evolved from the weaver bird.
coincide?
Originally, Qiao Bai thought that this world also had mythological stories like the Three-legged Golden Crow, but after a year of study and filling in the gaps, Qiao Bai discovered - no, there weren't any at all.
Maybe it's because the world is different.
Or perhaps it is because there are extraordinary creatures in this world that some myths, especially those involving imaginary legendary creatures, do not exist in either the East or the West.
Qiao Bai felt that this was no coincidence.
But now is not the time to dwell on this.
Save the cat and bug first !
Qiao Bai understood the meaning of the nocturnal bird through his innate skill [Power of Response].
Ji——li——Don't come near my child! Or I will attack!
Li——lili——Back off! Don't come near me again!
Qiao Bai couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.
The nocturnal bird sounded very fierce in the first sentence, and the second sentence... Qiao Bai took another look at the nocturnal bird. Only a fifth-level intermediate nocturnal bird could withstand the attack from a sixth-level advanced nocturnal bird and deflect the attack. As for why the nocturnal bird showed mercy... Qiao Bai didn't believe it anyway.
No matter how fiercely it spoke, the night bird actually restrained its strength when facing the sound bird and the remaining smoke.
It doesn't want them to get hurt.
The nocturnal bird simply wanted to drive away Yu Yan and Luo Yin Bird. "My innate skill is [Affinity]. Maybe it's because of the two pets, or maybe it's because I use it so often, I have developed new uses for my ability. I can vaguely understand what other extraordinary creatures mean." Qiao Bai was familiar with it, and he used his trickery without blushing or beating his heart.
Fooling around?
A skilled worker.
Nine true and one false.
I conceal things that I cannot say and do not want to say, but I absolutely do not tell a single lie.
"The evolved form of the weaverbird just now, well... it didn't really have the intention to attack Senior Yu Yan and the nocturnal bird." Qiao Bai restated what the nocturnal bird said.
Luo Yiming was stunned.
There was moisture forming in Yu Yan's eye sockets.
"Can I go up and communicate with it?" Qiao Bai looked at Luo Yiming and Yu Yan who were standing in front of him and said with a sigh.
Luo Yiming: "Just because it has no intention of attacking Yu Yan and Luo Yin Bird, it doesn't mean it won't attack you!"
Yu Yan: "Professor Qiao Bai, it's better to be careful. You'd better not go. If you have anything to say, tell me and I will convey it to you!"
Both of them had the same idea - Qiao Bai couldn't afford to get hurt, so let them go!
Qiao Bai: “…”
"It's okay, I'll take Xiao Wu with me." Qiao Bai said calmly.
Although Xiao Wu's strength is not as strong as that of the nocturnal bird, thinking of Xiao Wu's special deterrence to avian supernatural creatures, Qiao Bai feels that he can still protect his own safety.
"Some things can be communicated more efficiently face to face."
If it was the legendary Guhuo bird, Qiao Bai could understand why it stole eggs (crossed out), but legends are legends. The real nocturnal bird in front of him is not a legend, but a living being, an extraordinary creature with its own love and hate.
The innate skill of the nocturnal bird is only [raising offspring], not [stealing eggs]. This shows that stealing eggs is not an influence brought to the nocturnal bird by its bloodline, but the nocturnal bird itself wants to do so.
Qiao Bai felt that they needed to communicate.
Seeing that there was no way to stop him and Qiao Bai had safeguards in place, Luo Yiming and Yu Yan had no choice but to make way for Qiao Bai.
Qiao Bai brought Xiao Wu forward.
Before it reached the place where Yu Yan was just now, the night bird raised its head again and looked fiercely in the direction of Qiao Bai with a very fierce expression.
"Ji--jilili--" Don't... don't come over... don't come near! The night-flying bird's eyes were not on Qiao Bai, but on the little crow in Qiao Bai's arms.
The night bird looked at the little crow with deep fear and dread in its eyes. Even its advantage in strength could not stop the night bird from trembling and being alert.
Xiao Wu: o(｀ω*)o Scare you to death! I let you steal the bird's little brother! Hurry up and change the bird's little brother back!
Although the little crow did not make any sound, it was magical that the nocturnal bird seemed to hear what the little crow said.
"Li--jili--" They are all my children! They are not your little brothers!
Xiao Wu: [○｀Д○]!
angry!
Very angry!
What do you mean your child? The blue, fattest one is obviously the bird's little brother! Return it to me quickly! Otherwise, don't blame the bird for being rude!
Nocturnal Bird: (') My child!
Xiaowu: (╬◣д◢) Bird's little brother!
The expressions of the two birds gradually became synchronized, and neither of them gave in. The nocturnal birds' natural and deep-seated fear of the little crow made them retreat in the face of the great maternal love.
Nocturnal bird: ∑(△｀)? !
What? Scared? No no no.
Not scared at all anymore.
If you get scared, your baby will be snatched away by the bad bird! Be strong Be firm Be indestructible!
