Chapter 1018: Chapter 1119: Doubts

"Is this new evolutionary form somehow specially related to you?"

Seeing Gitalien seemed protective of Kong Qing, Liao Yu asked cautiously and curiously, and the other party looked at Liao Yu and said,

"This new evolutionary form has nothing to do with me, but I am fond of it. If you humans dare to hurt it, I will not be polite with you."

Cheng Xiaoxiao and Cen Chudie frowned slightly. What exactly was the identity of this white-haired middle-aged man? How could he talk like that? And the word "humans"? Could it be—

"Kong Qing might stay by my side, so you don’t have to worry about its safety."

Feng Yuan explained with a smile to Gitalien, and after staring at Feng Yuan for a long time, Gitalien sighed,

"Well, I guess it wouldn’t be afraid of danger if it followed you."

Even though it felt that Feng Yuan had too many Divine Beasts by his side, it had to admit that they were indeed much safer with him than with itself.

"Have you organized the related research data? If it’s ready, I can help you connect with the Alliance for promotion."

Gitalien asked Feng Yuan, clearly aware of Kong Qing’s intentions. Helping in this regard was probably all it could do, and nodding, Feng Yuan said,

"I have organized it, but there isn’t enough practical data yet, since Little Green Snake is not a common Beast Tamer."

"Would wild ones not suffice?"

Gitalien looked at Feng Yuan with a curious expression, as by Kong Qing’s wishes, it wouldn’t be so demanding. Scratching his head, Feng Yuan said,

"It might be possible, but it is difficult to find, as Homeward Snake and Illusory Sound Parrot belong to a kind of elite evolution. However, Homeward Snake has lower requirements, needing only sufficient capability, unlike the Illusory Sound Parrot which is directly restricted by talent."

While talent isn’t absolutely immutable, enhancing it is extremely difficult. Capability, on the other hand, is relatively easier to meet, but that meant there were fewer wild Little Green Snakes that met the conditions because they lacked access to sufficient resources, whether in potions or Spiritual Medicine and Materials.

Perhaps as more Homeward Snakes appear in the future, this flaw could gradually be remedied. After all, the existing evolutionary paths of Little Green Snake were not strong enough to maintain and protect a tight-knit community. Although the Little Green Snakes did differ in population, limited by power, they were quite scattered and mostly lived alone, only clustering together during major disasters. Naturally, it was hard for them like for Poison Mush, to gradually increase in strength collectively.

"Just that? That shouldn’t be too difficult, little one, come and help me."

Hearing Feng Yuan’s words, Gitalien said with some surprise, waving at Nagna, who looked puzzled at him then landed confusedly on his shoulder.

"Help me find some stronger Little Green Snakes."

Gitalien said pleaseing to Nagna, and seeing this, those who knew Gitalien’s background were somewhat surprised. Senseing their odd stares, Gitalien coughed and immediately opened a Space Gate and left; Qi Chen said curiously,

"It seems like... it’s somewhat afraid of Nagna?"

"It’s not afraid of Nagna; it’s afraid of Lorraine Tower, but it won’t really bully him."

Agunas explained, flipping its tail. All the Divine Beasts knew about Nagna being under the protection of Lorraine Tower. Gitalien was somewhat afraid of Lorraine Tower; his relationship with Lorraine Tower was somewhat like his with Drudgeon, or maybe even better? After all, they were brothers born at the same time and had lived together for so long.

As for Nagna, it was due to the trust of the previous Nagna and the time spent with that Nagna that it had grown some affection. Otherwise, that little one wouldn’t have anyone daring to trouble it lightly.

"Who was that just now?"

Cen Chudie asked, somewhat puzzled; she really didn’t recognize Gitalien’s human form—as with Lorraine Tower, while in human form interacting with humans, he didn’t usually reveal his identity, only this year due to Feng Yuan was he known at all.

"That was Gitalien, just in his human form, like Veronia."

While saying this, Feng Yuan glanced at Veronia, who had already changed back to her original form and was sitting on the Rainbow Bubbles playing with her cell phone. After they had finished eating, the Flower-Leaf Kid had bid farewell and left; Feng Yuan had thought he would return to Cotton Orchid Manor with Yun You.

"You finally came back; is that the new evolutionary form of the Little Green Snake?"

Meng Binglan yawned as she spoke to Kong Qing, "Although I’m not involved in the research related to Spirit Beast evolution, I can still recognize most of the Spirit Beasts here. The few that aren’t documented must be Veronia, Xiao Ji, or Kong Qing. I’m familiar with Xiao Ji, and it’s not possible for a snake-type Spirit Beast to suddenly evolve into a doll-like form, so it must be Kong Qing."

Feng Yuan looked at Meng Binglan somewhat strangely and said,

"How come you’re here? Don’t tell me you’re also interested in the Homeward Snake."

Her research focus was on mechanics, so when did she become interested in Spirit Beast evolution? Meng Binglan yawned and said,

"Not really, but I’ve interacted with you quite often, and they asked me to come help communicate with you."

Meng Binglan leaned toward Feng Yuan and whispered in his ear,

"You are very important to Great Xia."

Feng Yuan smiled and looked at Meng Binglan and said,

"So they sent you over? To be honest, they actually have a better relationship with me, don’t they?"

Liao Yu seemed a bit embarrassed as she looked at Feng Yuan. Meng Binglan glanced at Liao Yu and Huo Feng and was about to say something when Ye Hanlei came over and said,

"We don’t really understand these things and can’t help with communication, but if you want, we could stay and help with other things."

"That would be unnecessary, it would just give Captain Yan a headache, wouldn’t it?"

Knowing the Special Duty Team was short-staffed, Feng Yuan chuckled. He didn’t care who came, as long as they didn’t act pretentious with him. As for those who might pretend in front of him? He secretly glanced at Veronia and chuckled mischievously, quite curious to see how Veronia would handle those people.

Veronia, who was looking at her phone, looked up somewhat puzzled and scanned her surroundings. Why did it feel like someone was plotting against her? Was it an illusion?

"That won’t be necessary, we’re not that important. Besides, if something big were to happen here, our captain and Captain Yan would have a bigger headache."

Ye Hanlei said with a bit of a laugh. Although the Special Duty Team was short-staffed, they weren’t so understaffed that they couldn’t function without them; rather, if there was friction between the researchers and Feng Yuan, bigger troubles could arise.

"Who says so? As long as they don’t start trouble, I won’t cause any."

Feng Yuan said with some dissatisfaction. Liao Yu glanced at Feng Yuan and grumpily said,

"What about the special assessment by the military department some time ago then? Are you really saying that had nothing to do with you?"

While that incident also involved another person instigating trouble, whether Feng Yuan had secretly done something nobody knew, it seemed likely.

"Speaking of which, where are the other researchers?"

Feng Yuan turned his head to ask Meng Binglan in an attempt to change the subject. She yawned and said,

"They are checking on the new recruits’ Beast Tamers. They’re reluctant to interact with you directly for fear of accidents."

Even though they had studied a lot about Feng Yuan’s character, they were still cautious. The researchers sometimes had their issues, so they had Meng Binglan meet with Feng Yuan first to avoid unexpected situations like those during the military’s special assessment.

"Gee, you make me sound so terrifying."

"But I haven’t photocopied that material yet; you guys might have to wait a bit."

Since they went out to have fun right after testing Qingyu and Kong Qing’s abilities in the morning, Feng Yuan hadn’t had the chance to photocopy the materials he wrote last night yet. Yun You smiled slightly and said,

"I’ve already photocopied it for you. It’s in your room, but there are only three copies."

"Three copies, huh? That’ll do. Take one copy and make more if you need."

Feng Yuan wasn’t surprised that Yun You had photocopied it in advance; knowing he wanted to make the information public, she would have guessed that the materials needed to be copied and distributed.
