Beast Taming: I'm Really Just a Forest Ranger - Chapter 134 - 115: Twin Flower Concubine! Male Mom? (2)
Chapter 134: Chapter 115: Twin Flower Concubine! Male Mom? (2)
Wait a moment.
Chen Yuan looked down at the Twin Flower Concubine sitting quietly in his hand like a demure little girl, with a complex expression.
This little guy’s gaze was full of dependence, like… like looking at its mother.
Oh no, am I really being mistaken for its mother?
Chen Yuan felt a mix of emotions in his heart, cleared his throat, and stared at the Twin Flower Concubine, whispering, “Did you misunderstand something?”
“Hum?” The little guy’s clear eyes looked at Chen Yuan and finally made a sound, soft and delicate, with a hint of coolness, arousing pity.
Chen Yuan said cautiously, “Actually, I’m not your…”
Before he could finish his sentence, he saw the little guy’s gaze droop, long lashes gently fluttering, visibly becoming gloomy.
Chen Yuan’s heart softened instantly, and he gritted his teeth, then said, “From now on, you’ll stay with me.”
Anyway, this child already thinks of him as its mother, and the farm is in need of a Wood-type Pet Beast.
The skills [Maosheng] mastered by Twin Flower Concubine can accelerate the growth of various plants, which is one of the most needed skills at the farm right now.
Besides, there’s just this one little guy; it’s not like it’ll eat us out of house and home.
Moreover, this newly born little guy is incredibly fragile, and if left to its own devices, Chen Yuan worries it might not see the sun tomorrow.
As these thoughts passed, Chen Yuan was about to say something, but when he looked down, he saw that the little guy had already closed its eyes, curled up into a ball, with a purple dress covering most of its body, asleep in his palm.
The newly born little creature has limited energy and fell asleep after a short period of activity.
Chen Yuan smiled helplessly and carefully extended his left hand, attempting to place the little guy in the backpack, but he saw the sleeping little creature extend its petal-like hands, tightly hugging one of his fingers, as if its mouth was sucking on something.
“Hungry?” Chen Yuan was puzzled.
But his backpack had nothing suitable for a Pet Beast cub to eat, and he didn’t know if the rough Pet Beast Food would be to its liking.
Chen Yuan glanced around and suddenly saw the Earth Bear gulping down honey, and his eyes lit up.
Then, holding the little guy in his arms, Chen Yuan scooped a bit of honey from a beehive beside the Earth Bear and extended his left hand stained with honey.
This time, the little guy hugged and unconsciously sucked the Sweet Honey from his left hand.
After a while, the little creature let go of his finger and fell asleep again in the palm of its right hand.
Chen Yuan carefully placed it in the backpack, wiped away the fine sweat on his forehead, and couldn’t help but sigh, “Being a mom is not easy.”
The night deepened,
Chen Yuan walked next to the Earth Bear, looking at the empty beehive beside him, and said, “Leave some for them.”
The Attendant Bees gather nectar and make honey to ensure the reproduction and survival of the hive.
If all the honey is eaten, their days ahead will be very difficult.
Even though these Attendant Bees have done wrong, they shouldn’t be completely wiped out.
Just as the Beastmaster Association’s task outlined, they should be deterred from stinging people randomly.
“Roar.”
The Earth Bear licked its lips, rubbed its bulging belly, and nodded without hesitation.
It was full and would take some home for the Bear Cub.
Meanwhile,
The Sweet Bee Queen and one by one, the Attendant Bees awoke, and upon seeing the withered flower sea and the wilting Twin Flowers, the whole hive fell into a frenzy.
“Hiss.”
The Sweet Bee Queen’s eyes flickered, stopping the commotion.
Chen Yuan watched them closely, ready for retaliation.
But unexpectedly, the Sweet Bee Queen did not lead the Attendant Bees in revenge; it simply hovered quietly before the wilting Twin Flowers for a long time, then slowly flapped its wings and flew into the air.
One by one, the Attendant Bees followed the Sweet Bee Queen, the buzzing of wings rising and falling.
They ignored the remaining beehive, and one after another, gradually disappeared into the night.
With the flower sea gone, remaining here is meaningless.
Chen Yuan shouted, “Remember, don’t sting people randomly.”
“Or I’ll come looking for you again.”
“Roar, roar, roar!”
The Earth Bear followed with a few roars.
Me too!
After the Attendant Bee Swarm left, the area fell into silence, and Chen Yuan walked to the backpack, looking at the curled-up Twin Flower Concubine inside, mumbling, “Your birth is a bad thing for them.”
He speculated that perhaps due to the Twin Flowers, this valley had nurtured the flower sea, providing the Attendant Bees ample raw material to make honey.
And to give birth to an extraordinary life, the Twin Flowers had absorbed the energy of the entire flower sea.
Even if Chen Yuan hadn’t come, at most, it would be another two months before the Twin Flower Concubine would naturally be born, forcing the Attendant Bees to relocate.
The Twin Flower Concubine directly impacted the rise and fall of an entire hive.
But this isn’t the Twin Flower Concubine’s fault; it’s just a newly born, ignorant little girl.
However, judging from the Twin Flower Concubine’s previous reactions, it seemed to only behave nicely toward Chen Yuan while being noticeably cold toward Cola.
“Hopefully, it’s not a problem child,” Chen Yuan thought secretly.
If it has innate character flaws, it will take great effort to help it grow up healthily.
The night was late, and after a fierce battle, Chen Yuan and the little creatures were mentally and physically exhausted, so they rested on the spot.
Closing his eyes, entering a meditative state, familiar voices sounded in his mind:
“Orange, Watermelon, good evening.”
After some greetings, Jiang Wenning’s tone was particularly light: “I have become an intermediate Beastmaster.”
Chen Yuan said, “Congratulations!”
After all, Jiang Wenning was a genius Beastmaster like him, and after enduring a night-long storm, she successfully became an intermediate Beastmaster.
“Have you thought about which Pet Beast to contract for your second one?” he asked.
Jiang Wenning replied without hesitation, “I should contract an Ice Attribute Pet Beast.”
Chen Yuan was surprised: “I remember your Sticky Rice is also an Ice Attribute Pet Beast.”
“Yes.” Jiang Wenning nodded, stroking the silver-white cat lying on her lap, “I really like Ice Attribute Pet Beasts.”
“I might form an Ice Attribute team someday.”
An Ice Attribute team would be completely overwhelmed by Spark.
Jiang Wenning continued, “But for most Beastmasters, it’s best to have diverse choices in their team to handle various situations.”
“A Pet Beast that’s good at offense, one that’s good at defense, and one that’s an assistant with control skills.”
Chen Yuan nodded as if he had realized something.
Li Junyue suddenly asked, “My first Pet Beast is the Ink Tree Spirit, so should I choose a Pet Beast good at offense?”
Ink Tree Spirit, a Wood-type Pet Beast, adept at various control skills.
Jiang Wenning paused, then said, “If you can get into the Investigation Department, you should choose your contracted Pet Beast according to your team configuration; your captain will tell you then.”
After saying this, Jiang Wenning smiled slightly and continued, “Oh, I got word yesterday that a professor plans to go deep into the Qinling to study the various conditions of local Pet Beasts and needs several combat type students to accompany him.”
“The minimum standard for participating in this activity is being an intermediate Beastmaster.”
“I have signed up.”
Chen Yuan asked, “When is it happening?”
Jiang Wenning said, “I asked around, it should be mid-next month when this professor is making some preparations.”
“Moreover, the academy currently has a limited number of intermediate Beastmasters, not everyone will participate in this event.”
“Fine.” Chen Yuan nodded, “When you come to Qinling, I’ll give you a good tour.”
“Of course, as long as it’s the southern slope of Qinling.”
Qinling is vast, and the area Chen Yuan is familiar with is only a small part.
However, Jiang Wenning’s words provoked deep thought in Chen Yuan; he had heard from the Association’s headquarters that experts and scholars would come to study the Mysterious Forest, but it’s been so long, why haven’t they arrived?
Are preparations underway?
