Divine Beast Lord: 10000 Amplifier From The Start

65 When A Man Attains the Dao, All Dogs and Chickens Ascend to Heaven!

Now that Wang Xiao had the City Building Token, after the territory core was upgraded, the number of pits to nurture mutated beasts would also increase. However, he did not have a suitable beast egg now.

Although Mutated Beast Eggs often appeared in the secret realm, most of them were ordinary mutated beasts. There were very few that were truly worth spending a lot of effort to nurture. If Wang Xiao only relied on his own strength to collect them, it was unknown how much time he would waste.

Therefore, to Wang Xiao, although the [Mutated Core] was rare, it was not impossible to obtain. However, a compatible mutated beast was really hard to come by!

The most important mission of the military was to explore various new high-risk secret realms.

Not to mention the higher drop rate of high-level beast eggs, but most importantly, there was no beast tamer lord like Wang Xiao in the army. Therefore, after the beast eggs hatched, most of them were treated as food for other soldiers. In Wang Xiao’s opinion, it was really a waste of natural resources.

Therefore, Wang Xiao suggested this replacement method. He could obtain high-level beast eggs more conveniently, and the military could also keep more rare materials. He did not believe that Chen Jinrong would reject this win-win choice.

As expected.

After hearing this suggestion, Chen Jinrong slapped his thigh without thinking, “No problem! Isn’t it just ten high-level beast eggs? I’ll give you 30!”

“I don’t need that much!”

Wang Xiao hurriedly waved his hand. After his territory core rose to level three, the number of mutated beast pits would increase to ten. Even with the reward for activating the [Winning Streak Badge], it would still only increase to 11.

Now that he already had four mutated beasts, there were only seven pits left that he could use to nurture. He only wanted ten beast eggs to choose from, but thirty was a little too much.

However, it was clearly not Wang Xiao’s character to let Chen Jinrong off just like that.

After rejecting the other party’s good intentions, Wang Xiao probed, “Commander Chen, I still only want ten beast eggs. As for those twenty… can I exchange them for a question?”

Chen Jinrong looked puzzled. “What question?”

“What’s your lord talent?”

Wang Xiao asked tentatively.

Now, he had already remembered where he had seen Chen Jinrong. It was the team that had come to save them after they defeated Andu!

At that time, there was also a level three gold-rank [Burning Mist Griffin] beside Chen Jinrong. It clearly looked like the soldier of this commander-in-chief.

Upon hearing Wang Xiao’s question, Chen Jinrong, who had been smiling, suddenly became serious. “Little fellow, you should know that asking about talent is a taboo among lords, right?”

“I know.”

Wang Xiao nodded and explained, “Commander Chen, don’t misunderstand. Actually, I don’t want to ask about your lord talent. I just saw that your [Burning Mist Griffin] was nurtured well, so I want to ask you for some experience in nurturing mutated beasts.”

Chen Jinrong did not speak. He stared at Wang Xiao with a sharp gaze for a long time before finally smiling again. “Who said that it’s a mutated beast?”

“It’s not a mutated beast?”

Wang Xiao was stunned when he heard this. The appearance of the [Burning Mist Griffin] appeared in his mind again—a bird-headed beast with a pair of wings on its back. Although it looked a little strange, it clearly looked like a mutated beast!

“Let’s put it this way…”

Chen Jinrong paused for a moment, as if he was thinking about how to phrase it. After a moment, he continued, “Think about it. What words are related to ‘Burning Mist’?”

“Related?”

Wang Xiao was stunned for a moment, but he still pondered honestly. “Trees, fire, mountain, and wind?”

“That’s right.”

Chen Jinrong smiled and said, “It’s as fast as the wind and as quiet as the forest. It’s invasive like fire and is as immovable as a mountain.”

Wang Xiao was at a loss when he heard this. He knew that these words came from the art of war. The latter two sentences were “Unpredictable like the moon, move like thunder.” However, he did not know why Chen Jinrong suddenly mentioned this.

Seeing that Wang Xiao did not understand, Chen Jinrong smiled bitterly and explained, “My lord talent is related to manufacturing. The [Burning Mist Griffin] is not a natural mutated beast, but a mechanical beast driven by an energy core. Therefore, I’m afraid it’s very difficult for me to teach you anything.”

“Mechanical beast?”

Wang Xiao was even more stunned when he heard this. It had to be known that his results in the academy had been at the top for a long time, but he had never heard of a “mechanical beast”.

After being at a loss, he was disappointed. He originally thought that he could learn some experience in nurturing mutated beasts from Chen Jinrong, but now, it seemed that it was impossible… No!

Wang Xiao’s eyes lit up as he looked at Chen Jinrong expectantly. “Commander Chen, this mechanical beast you’re talking about… Is it considered a type of fortification?”

Chen Jinrong thought for a moment and nodded. “Mechanics and buildings are similar. If you insist on grouping them together, mechanical beasts can be considered a kind of mobile fortification.”

“That’s what I want!”

Wang Xiao slapped his thigh excitedly and looked at Chen Jinrong with green light in his eyes. “Commander Chen, I have a friend who has awakened the [Construction Talent]…”

“Construction talent?”

Chen Jinrong raised his eyebrows and looked at Wang Xiao meaningfully. “You’re talking about Zhou Xiruo, right?”

Wang Xiao was stunned, but he immediately reacted. Zhou Xiruo had publicly admitted that she was his vassal lord, so it was not strange for Chen Jinrong to know about this.

As a [construction lord], the main reason why Zhou Xiruo was weak in the early stages was that the construction fortifications could not be moved at will.

If Wang Xiao could obtain the method to make mechanical beasts, it would be equivalent to them having a mobile base. Coupled with his mutated beast soldiers that were ten thousand times stronger, wouldn’t they be able to do whatever they wanted in the secret realm?

Thinking of this, Wang Xiao took a deep breath and said seriously, “If Commander Chen is willing to teach me, I’ll only ask for five… oh no! Three high-level beast eggs!”

Seeing Wang Xiao’s serious expression, Chen Jinrong put on a stern expression and pretended to be angry. “What are you saying? Although I’m not a teacher in the academy, it’s my duty to nurture young lords!”

Wang Xiao’s eyes lit up. “Then you agree?”

“Do I have a reason to refuse?”

Chen Jinrong asked in return. After thinking for a moment, he continued, “I didn’t prepare anything in advance. Give me a day. I’ll get someone to organize it and send it over tomorrow morning with ten beast eggs!”

Wang Xiao revealed a happy expression. “Thank you, Commander Chen!”

Chen Jinrong waved his hand to show that he was welcome. Then, he stretched out his right hand and asked, “Since we’ve reached an agreement, shouldn’t you give the things to me? You’re not afraid that I’ll go back on my word, right?”

“Of course not!”

Wang Xiao hurriedly shook his head and transferred all the spoils of war without a word. “We used some in the battle. I’ll organize a list later and hand it to you tomorrow morning!”

Chen Jinrong roughly glanced at it and looked at Wang Xiao with a helpless smile. “Kid, you’re really born to do business!”

...

Wang Xiao was stunned. “What do you mean?”

“You can even think of making a list. You must have long thought of extorting me, right?”

“Well…”

Wang Xiao was instantly speechless. He thought that he had hidden it very well and did not expect the other party to have seen through him long ago.

Sigh! He was still too young!
