Beast Taming: I'm Really Just a Forest Ranger - Chapter 215 - 150: Is Duck the Chosen One? (Part 2)
Chapter 215: Chapter 150: Is Duck the Chosen One? (Part 2)
“No worries, this Fire Patterned Snake has already passed out.”
To verify Chen Yuan’s words, Cola specifically raised its paw and patted the body of the Fire Patterned Snake, which showed no response.
Only then did Cold-Biting Ox calm down and start examining the unconscious Fire Patterned Snake with open eyes.
But it still didn’t dare to approach.
Chen Yuan thought for a moment and said, “The root cause of the Fire Patterned Snake attacking you is that your strength isn’t enough.”
Cold-Biting Ox immediately lowered its head.
“As long as you have enough strength, not just one Fire Patterned Snake, even ten Fire Patterned Snakes could be faced with ease.”
“Moo…..”
Cold-Biting Ox felt even more dejected.
It understood this principle.
But it was too clumsy to learn skills no matter what.
Chen Yuan grinned: “No worries, if they can’t teach you, I can.”
Since Cold-Biting Ox couldn’t learn skills, it must be a lack of comprehension. Fortunately, the yard has Luminous Fruit and Void Fruit, which are excellent resources to enhance a Pet Beast’s comprehension.
Even if these don’t work, Chen Yuan can directly improve its proficiency with Source Point.
Of course, this requires Cold-Biting Ox to first grasp the skills.
Chen Yuan waved his hand: “For now, stay by my grandfather’s side. I’ll figure something out.”
“In a month at most, this Fire Patterned Snake won’t be your match.”
“Moo?”
Cold-Biting Ox lifted its head, looking at Chen Yuan with hopeful eyes.
Subsequently, Chen Yuan looked back at the Fire Patterned Snake.
After the Snow Cloud Wolf incident, Chen Yuan had become quite adept at handling such situations.
Faced with such unruly wild Pet Beasts that posed a certain threat to the village, the current solution was very simple—send them to the enrichment breeding base.
After being locked in a small dark room for a few days, even the most ferocious Pet Beasts would become docile.
Though it was already early morning, Chen Yuan still sent a message to Cai Hong.
Leaders like Cai Hong couldn’t possibly leave their notification sound on while sleeping, right?
However, the next moment, Cai Hong replied: “Alright, I’ll arrange for someone to come over immediately.”
Chen Yuan glanced at the time; it was already one in the morning. He suddenly felt a deep sense of guilt.
A poor worker would soon be driving overnight to Xuanhe Village because of his message.
With that thought, Chen Yuan quickly advised, “No worries, Cai, you can head out in the morning just the same.”
“Then please take care of this Pet Beast,” Cai Hong typed back, “By the way, what kind of Pet Beast is it?”
“A Tier Two Fire Patterned Snake that attacked Cold-Biting Ox around the village, causing panic among the villagers,” replied Chen Yuan.
Cai Hong sat up straight on his bed, his eyes glimmering in the screen’s glow: “Alright, I’ll make the necessary arrangements.”
“Thank you, Advisor Chen.”
After putting down the phone, Cai Hong gazed at the dark ceiling, lost in thought.
“Working late into the night, you’re wasting your leadership position,” his wife’s complaint echoed in his ears.
Cai Hong snapped back to reality, turned to embrace his wife’s waist, and gently said, “If leaders don’t set an example, how can those below work well?”
He paused and sighed, “Luckily, there’s Advisor Chen…..”
“These two Tier Two Pet Beasts solve the breeding base’s urgent issues.”
His wife was puzzled: “Do you have Beastmasters willing to contract Tier Two Pet Beasts?”
Cai Hong explained with a smile: “Whether Beastmasters contract them or not is irrelevant. What’s important is that these two Tier Two Pet Beasts can become the face of the base.”
“With them, the base won’t lack for promotional material during this time.”
The wife said, “Advisor Chen is really amazing; just two days ago, he brought in a Tier Two Snow Cloud Wolf, and now he’s captured a Tier Two Fire Patterned Snake.”
Cai Hong chuckled, “If he weren’t amazing, no one would think of him as Baokun City’s top Beastmaster.”
…
By noon the next day,
a large truck arrived at Xuanhe Village, driven by a young man with flowing long hair and a very trendy outfit. He took off his black sunglasses, stuck his head out the window, and, upon seeing the sign saying “Xuanhe Village,” finally exhaled a sigh of relief: “This road is really damn hard to drive.”
The mountain road leading to Xuanhe Village was relatively smooth, but the path was too narrow, and he was driving a large truck, which often took a long time to pass other cars coming from the opposite direction.
After several hours, he finally reached Xuanhe Village.
Cai Mingming parked the truck in place, cleared his throat, and dialed the number given by Cai Hong: “Hello, is this Advisor Chen?”
“Who is this?”
“I’m here to pick up the Fire Patterned Snake. Can you tell me your address? I’ve already arrived in Xuanhe Village.”
“So soon?” Chen Yuan was surprised.
Cai Mingming laughed, “Compared to my past racing days, this was slow.”
Chen Yuan: “?”
Cai Mingming lightly coughed, quickly changing the subject: “I happened to be doing some business in Taibai County. Once I got the notice, I rushed over.”
“Alright, travel down the road on the village’s right side, and I’ll be waiting for you at the entrance.”
“Okay.”
Following Chen Yuan’s directions, Cai Mingming drove the large truck forward on the right road and eventually saw Chen Yuan standing at the entrance.
Remembering all the reminders his father gave him, Cai Mingming quickly got out of the truck, hurried to Chen Yuan, bent forward, and extended his right hand: “Advisor Chen, my name is Cai Mingming. You can just call me Little Cai.”
He wasn’t familiar with this legendary Advisor Chen, but he knew well his father’s capabilities. Since his father told him to treat Advisor Chen with the best attitude, he followed suit.
Just as his father suggested he develop further at the breeding base, Cai Mingming didn’t ask any questions and simply nodded in agreement.
Since his father had paved the way for him, he just needed to follow it, no questions asked.
Cai Mingming…..
Looking at the long-haired guy in front of him, Chen Yuan felt, for the first time, a strong sense of dissonance between his name and appearance.
He lightly nodded, “Did you come alone?”
“Yes.”
“Then you’re probably going to have a hard time taking this Fire Patterned Snake back,” Chen Yuan said, leading Cai Mingming into the yard.
The Fire Patterned Snake was currently locked in an iron cage, with Spark guarding beside it.
Cai Mingming’s gaze landed on the Flame Cloud Falcon, which had made a big splash in the Taibai Cup, silently pondering how long his own Pet Beast could last against it?
Moreover, its size seemed noticeably larger than it had been during the Taibai Cup.
Just then, a voice in his ear snapped him back to reality: “Even though this Fire Patterned Snake is injured, the journey to the breeding base is long, and I’m afraid…”
Chen Yuan hesitated, but Cai Mingming understood his implication, so he grinned, “Don’t worry, Advisor Chen, I have my methods to handle it.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a white Summoning Array appeared before him, and a small figure hopped onto his shoulder.
“Meow～”
This cat-like Pet Beast had a luxurious coat of white fur, its eyes shining like rubies, a slender body, and a tail ending in a triangle.
Chen Yuan recalled the data on this type of Pet Beast: Gem Cat, a Spirit-type Pet Beast, naturally born exceptional.
Spirit-type Pet Beasts are very rare and since becoming a Beastmaster, it was the first time Chen Yuan had seen one in person.
“Gem Cat, I’ll leave it to you.”
Upon hearing this, the Gem Cat gracefully jumped to the ground, walked elegantly to the front of the Fire Patterned Snake, and stared at it through the cage.
“Meow～”
The next instant, the Gem Cat’s tail rose high, and its ruby-like eyes emitted a misty white light, while layers of Spiritual Thought Waves spread toward the Fire Patterned Snake, invisible to the naked eye.
Moments later, the Fire Patterned Snake closed its eyes and fell to the ground.
Chen Yuan suddenly understood.
Spirit-type skill, Hypnotic Thought Wave.
It’s said that many people are currently protesting against Spirit-type Pet Beasts using the [Hypnotic Thought Wave] on humans, viewing it as a vile act of desecration of human spirit.
Investigations reveal that most protesters are Hypnotists.
Cai Mingming squatted, cradling the Gem Cat in his arms and gently stroking it, smiling, “I’ll leave the rest to you.”
“Meow～”
The Gem Cat’s slender tail wrapped around Cai Mingming’s arm, nodding slightly.
With the Gem Cat, Chen Yuan was no longer worried about Cai Mingming successfully transporting the Fire Patterned Snake to the breeding base.
Working together, along with the help of the little companion, they moved the iron cage onto the truck.
Cai Mingming waved at Chen Yuan: “Advisor Chen, see you next time.”
With that, he stepped on the gas, and the large truck slowly drove away from the farm.
