The name has been confirmed.
Alchemical creature: Qiongqi, name: Moke
Talents: Desire perception, breath control, immense strength, wind
Abilities: Needle Throwing, Consuming Good and Evil, Beast Techniques, Flight
Basic rating: Advanced Bronze (Critical)
System Description: This is a ferocious beast that is about to surpass all evil in the mortal realm.
Ancient texts contain varying descriptions of Qiongqi, some saying it has the body of an ox and the fur of a hedgehog, others saying it has the body of a tiger and wings, some saying it is one of the four fierce beasts that suppresses good and promotes evil, and still others saying it has a benevolent side.
Since there were such large discrepancies between the various legends and the records in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, Wu You simply created Qiongqi according to his own judgment.
Looking at the beast pen, which is also the alchemical creature storage area, there was that eerie and awe-inspiring alchemical creature.
Anyone familiar with the legend of Qiongqi would probably recognize it at a glance.
As yet another critical organism, and a third-level alchemical creation at that, Wu You naturally couldn't release it into his own home.
After quietly leaving the house, he hurried towards Shiniu Mountain.
Next time I need to get a mount or something for transportation, otherwise it'll be a hassle to travel.
As for letting Garuru carry him around.
Should I ride on your head or carry you in a princess carry?
I shuddered and decided to forget about it.
We didn't intentionally run to the trees on the mountain; we just stopped on a small hilltop.
Choose to summon: Qiongqi Moke.
A black, gauze-like stream of light, just large enough to cover the entire shape of the Qiongqi, appeared.
The next moment, Qiongqi's body appeared in front of Wu You. Its body, including its tail, was about 5 meters long and about 2 meters tall at the shoulder.
Shaking its head, Qiongqi folded its wings, lowered its body, and looked up at Wu You with a calm expression.
A clear consciousness entered Wu You's mind.
It was a hunger emanating from within the demon's body.
Note: The critically endangered beast, Qiongqi Moke, is about to undergo a transformation to mortal form. It will begin to attract natural energy for tempering and requires special tempering materials.
The previous two critical beings' transformation process involved attracting natural energy for tempering, but this time a special tempering material appeared.
I don't know what it is.
Although it was hinted that a transformation into a mortal was imminent, neither the sky nor the earth changed at all.
Of course, not everything has remained unchanged.
A faint wisp of black smoke began to emanate from Mo Ke's body.
The wispy black smoke didn't originate from the demon's body; it simply appeared naturally beside it.
At this moment, the hunger that Mo Ke conveyed to Wu You became even stronger, as if something in the distance was attracting it.
"Go."
With Wu You's permission, Qiongqi leaped with all its might, jumping to a height of three meters before spreading its wings.
The swing brought a gust of wind, and the entire figure quickly disappeared into the sky.
Wu You had only been in the mountains for a short time when he hurriedly returned home.
I only went into the mountains because I was afraid of making too much noise. I should have just called from the back gate.
Now he needs to go back to bed and use observation mode to see what Qiongqi is up to.
When Wu You lay comfortably on the bed and used the observation mode.
Qiongqi has already flown over Qiantang City.
Now, wisps of ethereal, smoky matter are swirling around its body, even more than before.
In observation mode, Wu You was able to intuitively feel Mo Ke's hunger.
Furthermore, one can "see" wisps of black smoke rising from nowhere in the void.
Qiongqi hovered high in the sky, as if searching for something.
Before long, a feeling of joy appeared on its body, and its entire body quickly flew towards a direction of the city below.
...
Gao Rufeng was originally a scoundrel from his hometown. He was lazy, loved to gamble, and after being fired from the leather factory where he first started working, he never had a legitimate business again.
There's a small circle of people from our hometown who hang out together like this.
One day, one of them suddenly suggested to his companions, "We can't keep wasting our lives like this."
I have to accomplish something, at least to look like a decent person.
Few others reacted strongly, but Gao Rufeng responded very actively.
After discussing it, the two decided to go out and find work.
One of his companions' relatives was said to be doing quite well along the coast.
The two of them then went together to seek refuge with him.
Unexpectedly, that person turned out to be a human trafficker.
Gao Rufeng's companion immediately backed out and ultimately did not agree to join, instead going to work elsewhere.
But Gao Rufeng stayed and did very well.
Now he sees lovely children on the street, both boys and girls.
In his eyes, everything is just money and numbers.
He could earn a considerable commission by kidnapping and reselling a child; when business was good, he earned as much as 60,000 to 70,000 yuan a month.
Tonight, he and an accomplice from the organization drove a van to transport the two boys and one girl they had abducted in Qiantang City over the past two days.
In their line of work, it's impossible to stay in one city to commit crimes; they have to travel all over the country.
The organization even has a safety schedule for the length of stay in different locations.
The oldest of the three children in the car was a girl who had just turned four, and the other two boys were both under four years old.
They were terrified, and because of their previous experiences with pain, they didn't dare to scream.
...
The van was circling the Qiantang River at night, trying to avoid any possible random DUI checks.
We've now reached a remote suburban road. This area has been under construction recently, and even the streetlights aren't in very good condition.
Experienced drivers in Qiantang rarely take this route, and few new drivers from other places know how to use it either.
Apart from them, there wasn't a single other car on the road.
Gao Rufeng held the steering wheel, a cigarette dangling from his mouth, and just as he switched hands, he exhaled a smoke ring.
The accomplice was watching the three children behind him.
A plume of black smoke suddenly drifted past not far away on the road illuminated by the car headlights in front of the car window.
A monster that looked like something out of a nightmare appeared there.
Gao Rufeng slammed on the brakes.
"Squeak~~~~~~"
A screeching sound of brakes rang out, and Gao Rufeng and his accomplice inside the car simultaneously crashed into the van's side panel.
His accomplice thought he was about to hit someone, rubbed his forehead and looked up, only to find nothing in front of the car.
"Are you fucking crazy?! Why did you brake so suddenly? Are you seeing things?"
Gao Rufeng also raised his head at this moment.
Looking at the area illuminated by the headlights, there was nothing but asphalt road and a few bits of construction debris left by daytime construction vehicles.
"I clearly saw it just now."
"What do you see?"
Gao Rufeng said uncertainly, "It seems so, it's a big tiger with wings..." His voice trailed off, even he himself didn't believe it.
"Idiot, you're fucking crazy, I'm never partnering with anyone again... You're insane..."
His accomplice kept cursing and swearing.
Gao Rufeng was still somewhat suspicious, peering through the car window at the front and back of the vehicle, but he didn't find anything.
His accomplices, however, started whispering among themselves.
"What is this? Black smoke?"
A wisp of wispy dust drifted past the window.
