Chapter 750: Chapter 751 Unforeseen Event_1

"Space Detection?"

Feng Yuan slightly sobered up and was somewhat surprised. Although Space-attribute Spirit Beasts were rare, they did exist. Thus, to avoid being stolen from or invaded by Space-attribute Spirit Beasts using Space Ultimate Techniques, certain important areas would be equipped with space detection and even space-restricting devices.

These devices would either trigger an alarm when Space Ultimate Techniques were used within their covered area or directly prevent the use of Space Ultimate Techniques. Although such prohibitions were ineffective against Agunas, after all, with the blessing of a Golden Tome Page, it could completely recreate Gitalien’s Space Gate.

No human-made device could prevent the opening of Gitalien’s Space Gate, not even the Divine Beast Hall or the core areas of the Alliance, which were only capable of guarding against Sacred Beast Level Space Ultimate Techniques.

"Are those devices considered very precious? It seems, except for places like the core office areas of special operations, there are hardly any other locations that would install such things."

Feng Yuan asked with some curiosity. Because of their high value, even the dormitories for special operations teams did not enjoy the protection of space detection. Whether they needed it was another matter, after all, if there were a Space-attribute Spirit Beast present, it would detect any opening of doors or transfer between spaces. The significance of the devices was simply for 24-hour monitoring.

"I’m not sure what they really want to do."

Qi Chen seemed just as baffled, and Agunas, perched on Big Cat’s head, flipped through a book while saying,

"They probably want to create a stable rear area, that dormitory area isn’t just for you guys."

"I see, that’s right! I haven’t told her about the reconstruction plan..."

"Forget it, I’ll go find Captain Yang."

As Feng Yuan’s voice gradually lowered, Qi Chen looked at him with some confusion and asked,

"What reconstruction plan?"

"The reconstruction of the City Defense System. Don’t you think our current defense system is too outdated?"

"I think you’re just looking for something to do."

Agunas glanced at Feng Yuan and spoke irritably. Without thinking too much, it was obvious that if Feng Yuan brought this up, the other party would certainly take the opportunity to invite Feng Yuan to help. Although humans had made some new research findings in recent times, applying them to the modernization of the City Defense System still fell short.

Wanting to integrate those research findings would still require time with just the current researchers, but if Feng Yuan were pulled in, it would be a different story. That guy, without saying whether he would or wouldn’t, as long as he sought Ernis’s help, research speed would skyrocket. After all, Ernis was the one who single-handedly pulled up Omeilia’s mechanical and technological civilization on his own.

"Looking for something to do? Why?"

Feng Yuan blinked in some confusion. Agunas swished its tail and said,

"What are you going to say if they ask for your help? Don’t even think about refusing. You got yourself involved; can you even refuse to help?"

"That..."

Scratching his head, Feng Yuan felt a bit guilty. Even though the other party couldn’t force the issue, it didn’t seem quite right, did it? Agunas closed the book in his hand and said,

"Besides, they’ve already begun preparations for reconstructing the City Defense System."

Saying this, Agunas looked out the window at the houses swiftly passing by and said,

"After all, the initial designs to ensure that buildings would not be damaged by the Spirit Beasts’ Ultimate Techniques are no longer suited to the current era."

"Just like in the Mythical Era..."

Agunas murmured softly. The Mythical Era was an epoch where might reigned supreme. Compared to the current era, Agunas preferred this one, full of vitality.

"I see... So they will come looking for me sooner or later."

Feng Yuan said nonchalantly, while Agunas shook his head,

"Not necessarily. Ernis seems to be hesitating whether or not to sign a contract as a Divine Pact Maker."

"Ernis is looking for a Divine Pact Maker?!"

Feng Yuan and Qi Chen were both taken aback. Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan and said irritably,

"You started this bad trend."

Rolling his eyes, Feng Yuan said without words,

"Hey! How is this my fault?! What bad trend did I start?"

"Just count how many high-ranked Divine Beasts you’ve brought in recently. After prolonged contact with humans, you’ve made Ernis interested in finding a Divine Pact Maker."

"That makes no sense at all; it’s not so easy to change their minds. Little Crocodile, tell me, isn’t he talking nonsense?"

Feng Yuan glanced at Agunas and said calmly,

"Though I’d like to say it’s related to you, the fact is it’s not. That person is more like Najia and Yang Hongzhi, not exactly the same, but indeed, in some aspects..."

"Ernis in danger? However, Najia also had a Divine Pact Maker in the earlier days, Ernis couldn’t possibly be the same as it."

Feng Yuan was somewhat perplexed. Before Najia sealed itself, it had gone through several Divine Pact Makers. It inherently had an extreme closeness to humans; otherwise, it wouldn’t have chosen to sign a contract with Yang Hongzhi after the Noscarte incident ended.

Ernis was different. Knowing that the creature dared to throw Omeilia into constant warfare as early as the beginning of the Dynasty Era showed that humans meant little in its eyes.

"It would sign a contract with a human? I find that hard to believe," said Feng Yuan, to which Agunas paused to think before replying,

"It’s not in danger, but there seems to be a girl who admires it greatly, always chasing after it, maybe touched by her attitude?"

Agunas wasn’t exactly sure, after all, it wasn’t the Divine Beast in question. Feng Yuan leaned back in his chair and resting his hands behind his head, he said,

"Could it be she’s after its status?"

"No, if that were the case, it wouldn’t hesitate so much."

Agunas replied with certainty. Divine Beasts could see through the heart. They couldn’t read minds like telepathy, but emotions couldn’t be hidden. Anyone approaching a Divine Beast with hidden motives would be seen through, no matter how well they concealed them.

"Then it’s all casual, isn’t it? It’s not the first one, after all."

Feng Yuan said nonchalantly. Thinking of the rumors, Agunas was somewhat surprised and asked,

"Are all those stories true?!"

"What ’all’ is true?"

The one you referred to as ’the first’!"

"Would you guys get bored enough to spread rumors? Think about it, it’s obvious."

Feng Yuan replied, somewhat speechless. Suddenly remembering something, he said in surprise,

"Speaking of which, the one it wants to sign a contract with should meet the conditions for participating in the Divine Land & Omeilia Beast Tamer competition, right?"

Caught off guard by Feng Yuan’s words, Agunas hesitated before responding,

"It appears... indeed it does... but this..."

"What does that have to do with the Beast Tamer competition?"

Qi Chen didn’t catch on immediately, while Feng Yuan looked at him with a strange expression, saying,

"What does it have to do with it? If an Omeilia contestant brings Ernis into the field, how do you think we should respond? Even if those disqualified due to age were to join us, we wouldn’t stand a chance, would we?"

"Certainly, the Upper Divine Beasts they’ve defined have a huge advantage over the other Divine Beasts."

Agunas replied, exasperated. The humans’ classification of Upper Divine Beasts were almost the guardian Divine Beasts of the major regions. Unlike those whose authority was restricted to certain areas, these guardian Divine Beasts held unique worldwide authority.

The reason Feng Yuan couldn’t use the Life Divine Beast Nagna’s divine authority in Omeilia was due to regional restrictions on its powers. But for the likes of Lorraine Tower, it was different—Lorraine Tower’s powers were effective at any point in the river of time, and Gitalien’s space authority encompassed the whole world.

If the battlefield was within Omeilia, the Life Divine Beast Nagna from the Divine Land Region would be affected, but not Lorraine Tower and the others.

Plus, with their inherent strength even greater, these guardian Divine Beasts could dominate the others without it being surprising. Thinking of this, Agunas glanced at Feng Yuan and said,

"If that’s the case, you might have no choice but to compete."

"That shouldn’t happen, right? The Alliance wouldn’t allow such a thing, would they?"

Feng Yuan said with some unease. Qi Chen pondered and then asked,

"Won’t you win if you don’t compete?"

"Nonsense! Though it’s not a complete crush, what do we have to fight with, with just these two Divine Beasts on this side? Even if all six Divine Beasts on our side were to fight, we might not win against Ernis, who is best at group combat."

Ernis’s Mechanical Legion wasn’t just for show. While they might not be very strong individually, a group with strength close to the level of Divine Beasts would overwhelm most. Even a regular Divine Beast might not handle them.
