Chapter 355: 355 Chapter Black Towers_1

Big Cat, clearly proud, gave a little hop and looked at the screen in front of him. Feng Yuan, curious, fiddled with it a bit and said,

"How is this live stream collecting video data? And can the viewers really watch it directly through the existing network?"

Big Cat let out a few excited cries. Agunas’s phantom shadow seemed a bit puzzled by the conversation but still translated,

"Big Cat says, the video feed originates from the ’host’? I think that’s the term—it comes from the host’s point of view. Whatever the host sees and hears is what appears in the video. The live stream data is directly connected to the existing data network. That seems to be what Big Cat means."

"So you mean to say the live stream’s data is directly collected through the Data Domain and... this is some good stuff～"

Feng Yuan, slightly elated, ruffled Big Cat’s head, messing up the feathers on top, while Agunas’s phantom shadow looked at him, puzzled, and asked,

"What’s so special about this live streaming?"

"Of course, there is～ Haven’t you noticed that modern humans, once they leave urban areas, have almost no swift means of communication? Unless they use a Spirit Beast to carry messages, as soon as they step off the main roads, they’re pretty much out of touch, right?"

"You mean using this, what, ’live room’ to communicate?"

Feng Yuan looked at Agunas’s phantom with a somewhat amused expression and replied,

"How could that be possible? Never mind, it’s no use trying to explain this to you. Let’s wait until we find Ernis to discuss it. It’ll be much easier with its help."

"It will help you?"

"It should... After all, this is something that benefits the world. Big Cat～ you’ve done well～ Do you want any reward?"

Big Cat, hearing Feng Yuan’s words, gave a happy leap and let out a joyful cry. When it saw Feng Yuan looking at it, Agunas’s phantom shook its head and said,

"It’s just cheering."

"Big Cat, what reward do you want?"

When Feng Yuan asked again, Big Cat hesitated, shook its head, and cried a few times. Agunas’s phantom looked at Big Cat and translated,

"It says it doesn’t need a reward."

"Is that so... Then let me know when you think of something. Solving the problem of wilderness communication isn’t a small matter; you must be rewarded properly."

After saying this, Feng Yuan said goodbye to the Spirit Beasts, picked up Pomiti, and with Xiao Ji on his head, went to look for the Agunas that stayed with Yao Yin.

"Why do those invaders need you to personally take care of them?"

Yao Yin looked at Feng Yuan curiously. Glancing at her, Feng Yuan calmly said,

"Do you think life in the Xingluo Realm is so comfortable now? The Xingluo Realm is also facing several worlds simultaneously."

"No way!"

"Why would I lie to you? Do you think it would have compromised so easily if it weren’t afraid of making another enemy?"

"But what on earth is going on? It seems like there have been too many world wars recently."

Feng Yuan narrowed his eyes, seemingly deep in thought. After a while, he said to Yao Yin,

"Agunas will look after you for the time being. If you need anything, you can go to it."

"Tch, ’looking after me’ sounds so outright brazen."

"What? You have a problem with that?"

"No."

Yao Yin said, picking up her newly-bought handbag,

"Aren’t you going to find Ernis? Why are you still here? I’m off to go shopping."

After exchanging a look with Feng Yuan, Agunas flipped open the book in its hand and asked,

"Ready?"

"I’m ready."

Xiao Ji nervously clung to Feng Yuan’s head, while Pomiti in Feng Yuan’s arms curiously looked around. For some reason, Pomiti felt warmth and tranquility in Feng Yuan’s embrace that it had never experienced before. Snuggling into a more comfortable position in his arms, Pomiti drifted off into a dozy sleep.

"Why have you come here!"

"What if I said I came to help you?"

"Do you think I need it?"

After glancing at Ernis, Feng Yuan smiled and said,

"Does whether you need it or not influence my decision to lend a hand?"

"Who are you! How did you suddenly appear here!"

Just then, a girl pointed at Feng Yuan and shouted. After glancing at the girl, Feng Yuan said with some confusion,

"You are?"

"Me? I am ... no, wrong! You still haven’t explained why you suddenly showed up here! Are you planning to do something to Lord Ernis?"

Scratching his head, Feng Yuan looked at the blonde girl puzzledly and then addressed Ernis,

"What’s her story? Your Divine Pact Maker?"

In the sky, Ernis, in the form of a Mechanical Spirit Deer, uncharacteristically regarded the girl with a gentle gaze and said,

"No, she and I ... She just inexplicably followed me."

Hearing Ernis’s words, the girl breathed a sigh of relief yet seemed somewhat disappointed. She glanced at Ernis, and Feng Yuan said to Xiao Ji, who was lying on his head,

"I’ll leave the next part to you."

Xiao Ji let out a puzzled chirp, as it currently couldn’t borrow the power of any Divine Beasts and was utterly incapable of contending with those mutant creatures on its own strength alone.

With a wave of one hand, Xiao Ji felt the force enveloping it and let out a surprised chirp, leaping down from Feng Yuan’s head.

The girl watched in amazement as Xiao Ji turned into a pitch-black bird, and Ernis, glancing at Xiao Ji, muttered quietly,

"Power from the future self?"

While holding Pomiti and taking cover, Feng Yuan watched Xiao Ji and Ernis continuously clearing away the Mutant Beasts. After observing carefully for a while, Feng Yuan seemed to understand something and said,

"So that’s it. No wonder Ernis has been unable to clear the Black Towers."

"You know the reason?"

The girl asked with some excitement and casually took a seat on a rock. Feng Yuan, watching the two beasts in combat, said,

"Although I’m not clear on the exact nature of the Black Towers, they obviously have more than just a corrupting ability; they must also possess a constructing ability. Although they’re not on par with creation, they just so happen to be the perfect counter to Ernis, who also belongs to the constructing category."

"No wonder when I came over, I noticed that there weren’t many Black Towers. It seems those Mutant Beasts are mutated due to the influence of the Black Towers, but if you observe carefully, you’ll see that those Mutant Beasts disintegrate rapidly after death."

"Isn’t that Lord Ernis’s ability?"

Turning his head to look at the girl, Feng Yuan said speechlessly,

"How could it be? Ernis governs the creation of technology; even if a body has lost its soul, it’s still considered a life form. It does not have the ability to decompose it."

"Could it be..."

"Right, the one decomposing and recycling those bodies is the Black Tower. Ernis just happens to be a Divine Beast not adept at brute force. Once it gets into a stalemate with the Black Towers, progress naturally slows."

"Xiao Ji! Release the Nether Flame and swiftly approach the Black Tower to destroy it!"

Hearing Feng Yuan’s words, Xiao Ji, who was earnestly clearing away Mutant Beasts, looked up towards the nearby Black Tower. With a loud cry, it flapped its wings heading towards the Black Tower, while Ernis hesitated for a moment, then began to order its mechanical creations to block those Mutant Beasts trying to prevent Xiao Ji’s advance.

"Xiao Ji, this ..." Feng Yuan watched Xiao Ji scorching the Black Tower with Nether Flame, somewhat helpless. After thinking for a moment, he shouted to Xiao Ji,

"Don’t use the Nether Flame! Use a physical offensive ultimate move like claw attacks!"

Seeing Xiao Ji understandingly switch to a physical offensive ultimate move, Feng Yuan, satisfied, hugged Pomiti. Suddenly, he furrowed his brows and shouted angrily,

"You’re still coming? Do you really think I wouldn’t use World Obliteration?"

After a while, Feng Yuan said resentfully,

"You know what’s good for you."

"What was that just now ..."

As Yao Yin shopped for clothes, she turned her head towards Agunas in surprise, clutching her book. Agunas, holding back anger, eventually remarked with relief,

"It’s good that he’s there ..."

"Was that a new world invasion just now?"

Yao Yin, gripping her handbag tightly, asked Agunas. After looking at Yao Yin, Agunas thought for a moment and said,

"Not quite, because of him, they gave up on the invasion, otherwise ..."

"To scare off a world of at least fourth order? Just who is he ..."

Yao Yin knew very well that the world about to invade was at least fourth order, otherwise, she wouldn’t have sensed such a severe clash of rules.
