Chapter 1374: Chapter 1375 Aftermath

"It doesn’t seem like there’s any issue, though the Thunderbolt Dairy Cow probably needs about two more weeks before weaning. That’s quite a pity."

After carefully observing the Thunderbolt Dairy Cow and the Electric-Horn Cow, Feng Yuan said, and Agunas flicked its tail to say

"That has nothing to do with me. I’m not interested in its milk."

Feng Yuan casually scratched the Big Cat’s belly and said

"Indeed, it’s been meticulously cared for, even those Half-Spirit Grass have been temporarily replaced with ones from other places."

"Half-Spirit Grass? Replaced from other places?"

Veronia puzzledly examined the Half-Spirit Grass spread on the ground. Those things were merely to make the Thunderbolt Dairy Cow live more comfortably without much extra significance. What was the reason for this sudden replacement? The Thunderbolt Dairy Cow mooed in greeting to Agunas upon noticing Feng Yuan’s group, then glanced at Veronia. Feng Yuan smiled faintly and said

"Did you forget? The volcano here was about to erupt a few days ago. The plants in this region inevitably have a high Fire Energy content, which is why they bought Half-Spirit Grass from elsewhere to cushion it."

"This... is really extravagant."

Yang Hongzhi examined the Half-Spirit Grass and couldn’t help but say, while these Half-Spirit Grass aren’t expensive, transporting them from afar would make the freight costs quite high, not to mention these Half-Spirit Grass must be kept fresh; the time from harvesting to delivery can’t exceed half a day; it probably requires significant extra expenses to meet this deadline.

Xiao Hei shook its ears enviously looking at the Thunderbolt Dairy Cow; as for provoking it? It wasn’t that dumb. Just then, barking that sounded like a challenge echoed, the sound seemed to be provoking the Thunderbolt Dairy Cow. When the cow looked towards it, Xiao Hei jolted in surprise and quickly hid behind Long Boduo.

The Thunderbolt Dairy Cow glanced at Xiao Hei in confusion; there’s only one dog-like Spirit Beast here, yet why did it not understand that barking sound? Calling it a challenge, it couldn’t make any sense of it?

Agunas, hearing the unfamiliar woof that sounded like Xiao Hei yet was incomprehensible, quickly understood what was happening. It scanned around and directly pulled out the hiding Little Husky behind Xiao Hei, speechless, asking

"What are you doing?"

"Framing Xiao Hei? Seems interesting~"

Long Boduo curiously examined Xiao Hei behind it as if contemplating something, seeing this Xiao Hei whimpered and dashed behind Yang Hongzhi, trembling, Najia looked helplessly at the Little Husky and said

"Why do you bully Xiao Hei for no reason?"

"Giving it a pressured opponent~ don’t you think this can motivate it to train more?"

The Little Husky wagged its tail proudly and said, seeing Najia’s confusion, the Little Husky shook its ears back to its form and said

"Don’t you think it’s interesting for Xiao Hei to toughen up and train continuously after getting badly beaten by the Thunderbolt Dairy Cow, and eventually come back for revenge?"

Hiding behind Yang Hongzhi, Xiao Hei barked angrily at Feng Yuan; this guy was too wicked, wanting to trick it, Yang Hongzhi nodded and said

"You have a point, Xiao Hei has indeed been too lazy recently."

Upon hearing Yang Hongzhi, Xiao Hei paused, whimpered, and kept backing away from Yang Hongzhi looking scared, seeing this, Yang Hongzhi chuckled and said

"But there’s no need to let it challenge the Thunderbolt Dairy Cow; the difference in capability is too vast."

As Xiao Hei let out a sigh of relief, Yang Hongzhi said

"I remember my mentor has Spirit Beasts that are just one or two levels stronger than Xiao Hei. Let them be Xiao Hei’s opponents and goals; that should suffice."

Xiao Hei looked at Yang Hongzhi with a pitiful expression, barking mournfully. Najia shook her head and said

"Stop teasing it; I don’t think this way can ignite its fighting spirit."

"Moreover, I’ll take care of the training. I’ll make sure it undergoes proper training."

Before Xiao Hei could express gratitude, Najia added, holding its head, Xiao Hei whimpered softly.

After observing the Thunderbolt Dairy Cow for a while, Feng Yuan’s group turned to leave. On the way, Dou Yanlan curiously asked Feng Yuan

"Will the aftermath affect the Spirit Beasts in this area?"

"What influence could there be? Isn’t it already over?"

Feng Yuan didn’t immediately grasp what Dou Yanlan was saying, and she remained silent for a moment before saying

"I mean the extra Fire Energy; will it affect the growth of the Wild Spirit Beasts in this area?"

"This won’t be the case; with just this surplus energy, it’s really insignificant for Spirit Beasts. The Thunderbolt Dairy Cow’s purchase of external Half-Spirit Grass was merely out of perceived necessity. Spirit Beasts aren’t that delicate."

Scratching Xiao Ji’s neck, Feng Yuan said, it’s simply too much Fire Energy, but its impact on Spirit Beasts isn’t substantial, nor is it long-lasting. He estimated that in a month or two, the energy balance would restore, and the plants would return to normal. With just one or two months, what influence could it have on Spirit Beasts?

Spirit Beasts certainly aren’t fragile creatures; such minor elemental imbalance can’t affect them significantly.

Wandering around the manor and taking many photos, the group only returned to Verlun Castle after having dinner at the manor. Middel had been waiting for some time here.

Knowing about the volcano situation from Feng Yuan, Middel said

"I see, with critical balance facilities around, and Arnis didn’t inform us about such an important matter, really..."

"Probably afraid someone among you might covet, after all, it’s unique technology. If not handled properly, who knows what might happen."

Feng Yuan wasn’t surprised by this, though that facility was meant just to maintain stability, if tweaked, who knows it might turn into a terrifying device to extract Earth Energy Circulation. Although it’s not much a threat to Divine Beasts, they wouldn’t deliberately cause trouble for themselves either.

"I’ll inform the Alliance about this. I believe they can handle this matter."

Nodding, Middel said, though he’s a noble of Drochkar, this matter clearly needs the Alliance to handle it. Before that, the fewer people know, the better.

Claiming disinterest in that technology isn’t possible, but his territory is here. If investigating that facility leads to an incident, his territory suffers first, additionally, the practical value of the technology originating from Arnis isn’t clear yet.

"Thank you for your assistance this time."

Middel, after conversing briefly with Feng Yuan and others, quickly left. He needed to contact the Alliance promptly to take over the matters here; though remaining silent pretending ignorance is a way, the massive stir caused by Earth Energy Circulation can’t assure others won’t get curious and investigate the volcano.

Although approaching that facility isn’t something for ordinary individuals, they wouldn’t dare go near the volcano easily either.

"Are you sure it’s fine just saying it out like this?"

Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan with worry. Those facilities seemed really important; if damaged...

Feng Yuan smiled and pointed at Agunas saying

"Of course, it’s fine. If it truly shouldn’t be disclosed, do you think it would ignore it? Actually, letting the Alliance take over is a good choice; after all, Omeilia’s remnants aren’t many, not to mention here has complete technology and is operating steadily. If unchecked, trouble might arise."

"After all, not many would explore here before; with this Earth Energy Circulation disturbance, this place, not mentioning others, Drochkar would definitely send people to investigate, then those facilities would be discovered nonetheless."

Agunas flicked its tail and said

"It’s actually feasible to hide those facilities, and I suspect they were in a hidden state previously, only to be revealed due to the Energy Impact disabling the concealment device this time."

"No matter how well a secret is hidden, it always leaks someday. I feel the current Alliance is quite trustworthy, isn’t it?"

Glancing at Feng Yuan, Agunas didn’t refute as its words were true; no secret stays hidden forever, and previously, actions of the White Wolf Deity at the volcano would draw attention too. Letting the Alliance take over might be the best choice; however, it felt they should notify Arnis first, lest Arnis gets upset, which would be troublesome.
