1222: Chapter 1215: Rumors of the Overturning Beast 1222: Chapter 1215: Rumors of the Overturning Beast “Speaking of which, the last ti I visited Lipei, I didn’t get the chance to et Captain Luo’er, and thinking about it now, I feel quite ashad,” Reir suddenly rembered and said to Luo’er.
“Oh, don’t worry about it, you wouldn’t have seen even if you had co,” Luo’er said, waving his hand dismissively.
“How so?” Reir asked.
“Well, how should I put it?
There was a minor incident last ti, and I ended up in the hospital, so Captain Reir definitely wouldn’t have seen since I was staying in a hospital on Earth,” Luo’er explained with a nonchalant spread of his hands.
“I didn’t know that, Captain Luo’er.
Are you feeling better now?” Reir asked with concern after a brief pause.
“It’s nothing, it’s all in the past.
If I weren’t well, how could I have the chance to be on a mission?” Luo’er reassured him.
“That’s good,” Reir nodded in relief, then after a mont of contemplation, he asked, “It wasn’t those rebels from Lipei causing trouble, was it?”
“Let’s not talk about it, let’s not talk about it,” Luo’er waved his hand dismissively.
When Reir referred to Saiye and the others as rebels, it was evidently in the tone of the headquarters, which had determined that these people had betrayed Lipei and intended to revolt.
However, so influenced by Western powers believed that they were oppressed by the governnt of the Lipei region and had no choice but to resist.
“Captain Reir travels far and wide; have you ever encountered a Leviathan?” Luo’er shifted the topic.
“Ah, a Leviathan?” Reir paused, then chuckled bitterly, “We fly in the sky while they swim in the water; we don’t interfere with each other, so how could there be a chance to et?
But…”
“But what?” Luo’er pressed on.
“I have seen a Leviathan flying in the sky,” Reir recalled and said.
“A Leviathan can fly?” Luo’er exclaid, his heart skipping a beat.
Obviously, if what Xia Yue had described was accurate, Leviathans couldn’t fly since they were creatures of the Source River, highly dependent on the underwater environnt.
Thus, the only large creatures capable of flight he could think of were the Scouring Sky Beasts.
“Where did you see this Leviathan?” Luo’er asked calmly.
“Let think, it was sowhere in the northern part of Basargold Island, and quite high up in the sky,” Reir recalled and said.
“Northern Basargold Island…
very high in the sky…” Luo’er murmured, frowning in thought.
Basargold Island, situated at the eastern part of the Continent and southwestern to the Kingdom of Masya, had been overtaken by Beastn, becoming an island of Beastn.
The eastern sea troubles were connected to Basargold Island.
However, the Scouring Sky Beast seed to have no relation to Basargold Island, so Luo’er wondered if it might be linked to high altitudes.
Therefore, he looked at Reir and asked, “Captain Reir, are there many sightings like this?”
“Eh, not many,” Reir spread his hands and said, “In fact, in half a century as a captain, I’ve only seen this once.
Other captains might be luckier, having seen it two or three tis.”
“Are there any reports of these sightings?” Luo’er pressed further.
“There probably aren’t any sighting reports,” Reir shook his head and said, “But flight reports should have recorded it, of course, not specifically detailed.
If Captain Luo’er wants to find out more, you might have to go through a century’s worth of flight reports.”
“Oh, I see…” Luo’er said, nodding slightly disappointed.
“Captain Luo’er, why the sudden interest in this matter?” Reir asked.
“We are out here on a scientific expedition, and we are indeed very interested in these unknown creatures,” Luo’er replied.
“Could you enlighten ?” Reir asked.
“Hmm,” Luo’er nodded, then said, “The flying Leviathan ntioned by Captain Reir should have nothing to do with Leviathans.
According to the information we have, Leviathans are the rulers of the sea and couldn’t possibly fly into the sky.
The giant creature you saw flying might be the lord of the skies, the Scouring Sky Beast.”
“Overturning Beast?” Reir was taken aback for a mont.
“Yes, derived from ‘turning the heavens and the sea upside down,'” Luo’er nodded and said.
“Speaking of which, the na is quite vivid,” Reir nodded and then continued, “However, I personally feel that it does not seem as irritable as the Leviathan.
After we encountered it, it did not bother with us but flew away directly.”
“It is said that the temperant of the Overturning Beast is quite mild, not as irritable as that of the Leviathan.
Of course, that’s just a saying, or maybe the one you encountered that ti was mild-tempered,” Luo’er said.
“Captain Luo’er, if you are interested in the Overturning Beast, you could ask so crew mbers.
So of the original fleet’s crew who boarded the Helrandum with might know sothing,” Reir suddenly thought of sothing and then said to Luo’er.
“Do they still rember this incident?” Luo’er asked.
“Of course, they do,” Reir nodded and then said, “This incident did not happen long ago, just two years ago, I suppose.
There should still be many who rember it.”
“Then I really appreciate it, Captain Reir,” Luo’er was overjoyed.
“Don’t ntion it.
I will write a list later, and Captain Luo’er can ask around to find out.
After all, I can’t let you check the flight reports, so we can only make do with this,” Reir said with a wave of his hand.
Soon, Luo’er reported this information to Zhuyan Yu and then assigned the task of investigation to the crew mbers to complete.
The information provided by Reir obviously differed from their prior knowledge; the Overturning Beasts were not absent on the Aels Continent but hidden at high altitudes, only detectable by riding airboats into the upper atmosphere.
However, Reir also ntioned that, having been a captain for half a century, he had only seen it once, while other captains had at most seen it two or three tis.
This ans that although it is possible to find traces of the Overturning Beast on the Aels Continent, it requires great luck.
Thinking of this, Luo’er couldn’t help feeling a bit regretful; it would have been great if Xia Yue could be here.
As a witness from the previous generation, she surely would know sothing.
However, Luo’er also knew that soone like Xia Yue would not easily share such intelligence.
After all, she is a preserver of world order, not an interferer.
If she really wanted to interfere with this world, there would no longer be a place for Earth’s people.
However, upon ntioning Xia Yue, Luo’er was reminded of sothing and then, staring at Zhuyan Yu, who was flipping through books, tentatively asked, “Teacher Zhu, may I ask you a question?”
“You…” Luo’er hesitated for a mont, then resolutely asked, “You made a trade with Lady Xia Yue, didn’t you?”
“How did you know?” On hearing Luo’er’s question, Zhuyan Yu obviously startled, quickly adjusted her emotions, and asked composedly.
“She told you about the correctness of the binary particle entanglent theory, right?” Luo’er continued to ask.
“Yes.” Unexpectedly, Zhuyan Yu did not intend to deny but admitted straightforwardly.
“As a trade-off, did you give her all the information in your brain?” Luo’er continued to ask.
“Are you planning to report to headquarters?” Zhuyan Yu asked.
“Ah,” upon hearing her words, Luo’er suddenly sighed, then shook his head and said, “I didn’t expect you would still do this, I personally have no objections, after all, I understand Lady Xia Yue.
But I feel that this thod…
it’s too devious,”
“He who learns the Dao in the morning may die in the evening without regret,” Zhuyan Yu said composedly.
“That may be true…” Luo’er sighed again.
He did not believe that the binary particle entanglent theory was told to them by Xia Yue, but rather that Zhuyan Yu and Nightingale co-developed it.
Xia Yue played a role of inspiration, just like telling them that it was possible to build an atomic bomb.
Xia Yue told them that the binary particle entanglent theory was correct, and as long as they could prove this theory was correct, then deriving it would be much easier because there were only a few possible sches that could work.
In so ways, it was precisely because Xia Yue confird the correctness of the binary particle entanglent theory that the Source river technology at headquarters was able to develop rapidly, even going so far as to invent almost bug-like weapons like the Origin Submachine Gun.
It can be said that without the help of Xia Yue, they would still only be able to understand magic from a superficial level.
