Chapter 675: Chapter 587: Intense Emotions (5000-word chapter!)
“It must be due to the Hoins Monster’s lineage problem; wanting to have a bunch of children all the ti, poor McGraw…”
Tang Qi shooed the pair away, about to sigh in pity, when he suddenly recalled McGraw’s sweet and indulgent look when gazing at Ally. Obviously, he was enjoying himself and didn’t feel pitiable at all. How could young lovers ever be pitiable?
Wordlessly, Tang Qi looked at his desk. In addition to “Radoya’s Book,” there were so reports and charts brought back by McGraw. One of them was particularly eye-catching: a list of Extraordinary Organizations that had established cooperative relationships with rada Special Education School.
The Kelsite family, where Ally was from, was prominently on that list.
Tang Qi skimd through it, automatically comparing it in his mind to the list he had seen when he first took his position, a look of admiration appearing on his face.
McGraw did an exceptionally good job. He not only managed to restore the cooperation network from the era of Esralda but even expanded upon it.
“Although it still can’t be compared to large organizations like the Investigation Bureau or the World Tree, the fa of rada Special Education School today should be enough to be seen trailing behind the Ancient Castle Bureau,” Tang Qi murmured, pinching the chart and looking at the nas of the organizations that ca into view.
However, there wasn’t much pride on his face, nor did he feel any safer because of it.
“The ‘alliances’ on the Mysterious Side aren’t that reliable. Should any horrifying disaster strike, most of these so-called cooperative organizations won’t show up; this chart would be no different from scrap paper by then.”
“Compared to that, contracts are more dependable.”
Ideas flickered in his mind as he recalled the many arrangents and their outcos in recent tis.
During these thoughts, Tang Qi stood up and walked to the large floor-to-ceiling window.
In stark contrast to the falling snow was the warm atmosphere that now perated Dragon Heart Castle.
Firstly, Tang Qi saw the icy lake surface amidst the snow and dense mist, where Artifact Forgers and Mysterious Craftsn shuttled through the whirlpools. They had been hired by Tang Qi at a considerable expense to complete the crafting of the “Fla Goddess” in the shortest possible ti.
Originally, he had planned to have the craft completed by the Witches once they returned en masse.
But anticipating possible upheavals in the future, Tang Qi had chosen a shortcut.
“With the Green Dragon’s Breath, and the complete version of the ‘Fla Goddess,’ we should be able to fend off most demigod-level beings.”
As he murmured to himself, Tang Qi’s gaze then moved to the surroundings of Dragon Heart Castle.
The moist mist, the enchanting forest, the dark gorges, and the shadows of various abnormalities, so familiar and so slightly unfamiliar, such as the Red-Eyed Crows of the Black Mountain Beech and the Mushroom Man crying out military codes as usual.
The unfamiliar ones, though, were newly erged “abnormalities.”
Just like at this mont, Tang Qi saw on a mountain peak not too far from Dragon Heart Castle, a Stone Giant sat on a dark green boulder that looked like it was covered in moss. Its limbs and head were rough, barely maintaining a humanoid shape.
But its face was “carved” with incredible realism, resembling a middle-aged man with a worried frown.
Balding slightly on top.
Hanging his head low, his hands limp on his knees, as if he was very tired and resting.
Next to it, a giant Stone Sword floated in the air, its blade engraved with dense circular symbols emitting specks of red light.
Seeing the Stone Giant appear just as “agreed,” a smile couldn’t help but lift the corners of Tang Qi’s mouth.
The Giant was called “Decadent,” an ancient Order Abnormality by age. It claid to have infiltrated the Lake Heart Island Secret Realm before the Witches settled there, but it had always hidden in the mountains not far from Dragon Heart Castle because of its personality.
Without Black Mountain Beech’s assistance, it would have been difficult for Tang Qi to discover it.
Yesterday, Tang Qi found the “voluntary” Decadent and he signed a certain contract, obtaining a job to guard Dragon Heart Castle.
As part of the compensation, it was also allowed to occupy that mountain peak, where it could contemplate life at sunrise and sunset.
Similar to “Decadent,” at this mont, entering Tang Qi’s view were:
A large fish with arms and long legs, casually strolling in the misty forest, occasionally sticking out its Big Mouth to consu sweet tree leaves, with the moist mist condensing into round droplets on its scaly body, iridescence flickering as if reflecting an entire starry sky.
An elder completely covered by a black robe, revealing only a bare skull, with a tall and lean body that humans could not achieve, occasionally sticking out its head from the dark gorges to look towards Dragon Heart Castle, the parting Mist revealing a crevice, just enough to see a mountain of white bones behind the elder.
A scrawny “elephant,” bearing Alien Objects on its back, which was a miniaturized fantasy jungle, protected by a glass cover, seemingly filled with glowing Elves.
…
These were just so of the mighty “abnormalities” that could be felt with a re glance, the fruits of Tang Qi’s efforts over the past several days.
From the very first day of his deploynt, Tang Qi knew that he and the students were not the only residents of the Secret Realm.
Strictly speaking, the Witches were also newcors.
Before the establishnt of Dragon Heart Castle, many abnormalities like “Decadent” already existed in the Secret Realm. They were all part of the Order Good Camp, usually hiding in the Mist, with the Witches vaguely aware of their existence but refraining from deep exploration of the Mist Zone due to certain concerns.
