Chapter 212: Chapter 210: Strange Bird’s Second Transformation_1

Owen Bertram sat down, but was interrupted by Ethereal Devin’s voice from outside, "Lord Prescott, I have an urgent matter to report."

Verna’s face turned sour, feeling as if another freeloader was coming to mooch a meal.

Ethereal Devin truly had an important matter, but as soon as he entered, his nose couldn’t help but gravitate towards the big pot... The aroma was simply too enticing.

There were already rumors in the outpost that Owen’s sister’s cooking was unparalleled in the world, and eating her food even had a supplementary effect on cultivation. That’s why Lord Prescott and his crew were always hovering around her.

However, if you asked Matthew and the others, they would all shake their heads vigorously like a rattling drum: It’s not true, don’t talk nonsense, nothing like that.

We each only get half a bowl, if the news gets out, and you all try to grab some, how much would be left?

Owen reached out and turned Ethereal Devin’s head to face him, "What’s the important matter?"

"The strange bird came again last night," said Ethereal Devin.

The magpie? Owen understood. He had already barred the large bird from entering the outpost. The last few times it had snuck in at night, the military officers had shot at it with bows and arrows. With its growing size, the officers could mistake it for an attack by Demon Beasts!

"I understand. Don’t worry; I’ll handle this matter."

"Understood." Ethereal Devin replied, but his feet remained motionless. He wasn’t thick-skinned enough, but the aroma was simply too captivating, his body wasn’t cooperating.

At that moment, Matthew entered and knew what was going on just by glancing at the young man. He grabbed him by the collar and threw him out.

As Owen ate, he just had to focus his thoughts to find the magpie hiding outside the outpost in a cliffside eagles’ nest.

Inside its belly, there was still a Ghost Army!

These days, Owen was considering whether to have the Ghost Army join the Ghost Zone. Most of the Ghost Army were pitiful souls, and joining the Ghost Zone would be a good outcome for them.

But how to explain the origins of the Ghost Army to the King of Souls and the others?

After all, Nathan Lane could guess that the Ghost Army was in his hands, and he would soon join the outpost hierarchy. The Ghost Zone was not far from here, and there would still be a risk of exposure.

But now, Owen checked the magpie and found that this matter couldn’t be delayed: The magpie had already digested the well covers, and the Ghost Army had been in its belly for a long time, showing a "fusion" trend with it.

The magpie appeared restless and uneasy, its colossal body curled up in the shadows of the eagle’s nest. Little Ghost Gregory Ryan was gently caressing it.

"It needs the next step of evolution in The Scripture of All Things Responding to Spirits."

Last time Owen performed The Scripture of All Things Responding to Spirits on the magpie, its growth had reached its limit. Its spiritual intelligence was still a bit low, so it just felt uncomfortable without being able to express why.

It was truly suffering last night, so it impulsively flew above the outpost, luckily managing to control itself at the last moment and returned by itself.

Owen quickly finished his breakfast and went out to handle the situation. He asked the magpie to go to Gourd Vine to wait for him.

By the time Owen arrived, he found that the atmosphere was not harmonious at all.

The magpie’s feathers bristled, its blood-red eyes glaring wide, its sharp beak aimed at Viola Gourd, and its thick, colossal talons constantly scratching backward, ready to charge and peck at any moment.

The remaining five Gourds, though they would try to outshine one another and tear each other down in front of the Master, were outraged now that some despicable creature dared to bully their sister!The Gourd Vine swayed angrily, and every single one of the gourds on it seemed very enraged, as if they wanted to pounce down and severely teach that fellow who didn’t know better a lesson with their divine powers.

Unfortunately, they haven’t matured yet, and even with their abilities, they can’t use them; essentially...they’re in a one-sided slaughter situation.

Owen Bertram grabbed Magpie’s tail with one hand while realizing why this fellow had targeted Viola Gourd alone.

Magpie had sensed that Viola Gourd was forming a gourd seed in her belly, and it wanted to eat it.

Viola’s divine powers allowed her to form gourd seeds, which could grow anything she wanted—how could such a treasure be fed to Magpie? Owen Bertram pulled it back and slapped it to the side: "Wait!"

Owen Bertram followed his daily routine of fertilizing the Gourd Vine and then activated The Scripture of All Things Responding to Spirits to elevate Magpie for the second time.

Magpie also knew that it had undergone changes, bounced twice at its spot and suddenly shook its body with force.

Feathers flew all over the sky...

Magpie became bald—Little Ghost darted into the shade of a nearby tree, still feeling uncomfortable and missing the feathers around his big sister’s neck.

There were obvious changes in Magpie’s body, and even its skeletal structure had undergone significant changes.

While undergoing these changes, Magpie let out strange cries, appearing to be in great pain and even coughing up blood. The process lasted about four hours, and Magpie grew to the height of a person, looking thin and bony instead.

Its transformation didn’t resemble a "phoenix" more like a "Gold-winged Roc". Its wings grew larger, spanning more than six meters when fully spread! Furthermore, unlike ordinary birds, its wings folded four times.

During normal flight, it only needed to unfold two folds, which was more energy-efficient. It would spread its wings completely when it needed to fly at full speed or carry heavy objects.

Its claws also showed signs of transforming from bird claws to dragon claws, and its eyes changed from the original crimson to a pale gold color.

However, it was still bald at the moment, and after this evolution, Magpie was exhausted and had no extra energy to grow feathers.

It lay weakly on the ground, panting heavily. Its new body, skin, and bones looked especially pitiful.

Little Ghost Gregory Ryan anxiously circled his big sister, but it was daytime, and he couldn’t go hunting. He wanted to plead with his sister’s master—but the master was so terrifying; he always felt that if he was slightly unhappy, it could make his soul scatter.

However, if his big sister didn’t eat something soon, she would die of starvation!

Little Ghost mustered up his courage, knelt down with a thud in front of Owen Bertram, didn’t dare to speak, but kept kowtowing.

Owen Bertram laughed and said, "This child has integrity."

He spread out his palm, and Magpie swallowed the few spiritual pills he fed to it. In an instant, its shriveled body began to grow, with muscles and feathers appearing quickly.

This time, the newborn feathers were dark-gold in color! Little Ghost cheered and hurriedly threw himself into the feathers around his big sister’s neck.

Owen Bertram didn’t need to worry about the rest; Magpie could go hunt for itself now.

He walked down the hill with his hands behind his back, planning to release Brother back into the river for some exercise, and then feed it the Jade Seal today. Before he reached the foot of the mountain, he heard a loud and clear cry, and Magpie spread its huge wings, soaring majestically over the river, then plunged into the water. In no time at all, it caught a Tier-1 Demon Beast, Fierce Fish, and flew out!

The Tier-1 Demon Beast was utterly powerless under its claws!
