After Sheng Qing sat on it, the Green-eyed Demon Dog fidgeted a little, clearly repulsed by the approach of strangers, but under Qian Qi’s motherly fists of comfort, it gradually cald down, turning its gaze elsewhere, simply ignoring what it couldn’t see.
Only then did Xu Jinghong and the others climb onto the Magic Dog’s back. As the Magic Dog stood up, their view instantly broadened significantly; when the Dog raced through the mountains and forests, they shouted with excitent.
Zhang Yun: "Wow! This is thrilling!"
Han Li: "This is my first ti riding a Magic Beast, and it feels fantastic!"
Xu Jinghong: "Ugh—don’t you guys get beast-sick?"
Riding on the Green-eyed Demon Dog, the five quickly encountered a few Magic Beasts, and thanks to the Green-eyed Demon Dog’s agile movents, they took their lives from a distance, and by noon on the last day, they encountered the freshly spawned Earth Rhinoceros Spirit.
"What do we do now?" Han Li, entering an instance for the first ti, didn’t know how to divide the instance boss, as only one person could receive the boss reward boost.
Xu Jinghong and the others exchanged glances; saying they didn’t want it would surely be a lie, but if it ca to a fight, the strongest in the team would definitely seize the boss.
Just as they hesitated, Qian Qi leaped out like a teor and smashed the Earth Rhinoceros Spirit’s head with one punch, gaining the Strength Attribute boost this ti.
"Alright, now you don’t have to worry about it," Qian Qi grinned brightly.
Zhang Yun, Han Li, Xu Jinghong: ...
Qi Qian, you little devil, you don’t play fair!!!
"Wait a minute," Sheng Qing, tugging at the Green-eyed Demon Dog’s fur, suddenly spoke as he looked at the Earth Rhinoceros Spirit, "There’s sothing odd about its belly."
Qian Qi looked back, her expression freezing as she frowned and walked towards the Earth Rhinoceros Spirit, noticing its slightly bloated belly.
No way...
Qian Qi’s scalp tingled. Could this Earth Rhinoceros Spirit be pregnant?!
Rubbing her temples, Qian Qi raised her hand and tore open the Earth Rhinoceros Spirit’s belly, causing three brown Beast Eggs to roll out.
Qian Qi: ...
"I’m dood...!" Qian Qi knelt on the ground, pounding it in grief.
"It’s not your fault..." Han Li, gazing at the Beast Eggs, felt complicated as he comforted her, "Even if it wasn’t you, soone else would have killed her."
"No, that’s not it..." Qian Qi regretted, "The eggs are only half-hatched, the little Earth Rhinoceros Spirits inside aren’t fully developed yet. They’re not good for selling!"
Han Li: ???
Student Qi Qian, are you a devil?!
Beside them, seeing Qian Qi looking so upset, the Green-eyed Demon Dog lowered its head to lick the bloodstains on the egg shells, then used its paw to push the Magic Beast Egg towards Qian Qi, giving a low "awo".
Qian Qi looked up blankly, "Doggie, I don’t understand beast language."
Green-eyed Demon Dog: ...
[Oh~ my dear Qian Qi~] The system swiftly popped out, ready to make a sale, only to see the Green-eyed Demon Dog suddenly lower its head to pick up a Magic Beast Egg, then scoop up Qian Qi, dashing out into the distance.
Qian Qi: ???
System: !!!
Xu Jinghong and others: !!!
"Crap! Chase it!" Xu Jinghong reacted quickly, imdiately scooping up the remaining two Magic Beast Eggs and chasing after Qian Qi and the Magic Dog.
The Green-eyed Demon Dog raced through the forest, occasionally stopping to sniff the air, then continued running in the determined direction, until finally skidding to a stop in front of a Magic Plant vaguely resembling Little Pany菩提.
Unlike Little Pany菩提, this Magic Plant’s leaves were as wild as a banana tree’s. When the Green-eyed Demon Dog laid down Qian Qi and approached, the banana-like leaves flailed wildly, and from the sound alone you could tell how painful being hit must be.
However, the Green-eyed Demon Dog raised its sharp claws and fought back, tearing the banana-like leaves apart before finally grabbing the small, green fruit on top, then picked up Qian Qi and darted off again.
Accepting her fate, Qian Qi lay slack like a garbage bag bouncing at the Demon Dog’s side, curious to see what it intended.
To her surprise, the Demon Dog carried her back to the Concentration Fruit, nosing forward to bite a few Concentration Fruits and mixed them with the green fruit from earlier, its mixed juice dripped onto the Magic Egg Shell, vanishing quickly.
This was a technique it learned from its mother; when she gave birth to its brother, she used these two things to hatch him.
The system, watching the Magic Egg absorb the hatching juice and glancing at the contemplative Qian Qi, angrily rapped the side of the Green-eyed Demon Dog’s head with its panel.
Stupid dog! Showing off your knowledge! Made lose a sale!
Green-eyed Demon Dog let out a painful "awo": ???
Who hit ? Who’s hitting ???
Qian Qi noticed the painful yelp and glanced at the system, "Is this what you wanted to sell just now?"
[...Hmph, what I sell is way more advanced than this! This is just basic and crude hatching fluid! And it’s only suitable for—] The system abruptly stopped, refusing to say more.
Qian Qi raised an eyebrow, Suitable for what... only for Earth Rhinoceros Spirits?
Well, given that the Green-eyed Demon Dog knew of this thod, it might an their species also used this hatching thod, could it be it’s only suitable for this one instance?
But other instances also have Green-eyed Demon Dogs and Earth Rhinoceros Spirits, or does this only apply to certain Magic Beasts? Then what’s the boundary?
Or maybe it’s only ant for E-level Magic Beasts? But if that were the case, there would be no reason for the system to hide it, right?
After so much ti together, Qian Qi had a hunch that anything the system clamd up about would be expensive information, definitely not sothing as simple as E-level Magic Beasts.
Just what is it...
Qian Qi felt like she was missing sothing, a key piece of information to unravel all these mysteries.
Unable to figure it out, she decided to stop thinking about it, cradling the Magic Egg and muttering, "I wonder if the stingy old principal will snatch these Magic Eggs away, should I turn off the Flying Surveillance Ball and hide them first?"
The principal being called "stingy old man": ...
Am I more miserly than you?
"Magic Beast Eggs..." Xi Mingde and Hua Zhenlong exchanged glances, "It’s been a long ti since any Magic Beast Eggs have appeared in the campus instance."
Because the campus instance is regularly used for student exams, if there are too many Magic Beasts, so get cleared out by the teachers, and due to the rapid respawn rate of Magic Beasts, it’s rare to encounter a pregnant one, so Magic Beast Eggs hardly ever show up.
Even if they do appear, they are sent to the Beast Taming Association according to the agreent...
"Or maybe... keep it a secret this ti?" Xi Mingde stroked his beard, "After all, they’re premature, and the Beast Taming Association probably wouldn’t care for them."
"I think we can do that, but we need to make sure those students keep it a secret or else when word gets out... letting the Beast Taming Association know wouldn’t be good." Hua Zhenlong frowned, "They’re part of the Conservative Faction, they would love nothing more than to hoard all the secrets of Guardian Beasts themselves... hmph!"
