Divine Beast Creator

Chapter 2367 - 2368: Carlott

Although the Imperial Timeline’s invasion into the main timeline is a foregone conclusion, this matter has little to do with Feng Yuan. After all, this involves a battle between two timelines, and conventionally, Feng Yuan’s role isn’t significant in this.

After all, this war involves too many things. Just the manpower involved is beyond what one person can compare to. Of course, if Feng Yuan truly wants to take action, it’s not entirely impossible.

In fact, Feng Yuan has never mentioned one thing to Agunas and the others, which is that Feng Yuan can forcibly replace the timeline corresponding to a side stream of time. Although the timeline of a side stream naturally evolves and is born, in essence, it is one of the various possibilities in the Time River, manifested as a result.

Feng Yuan, along with Eclipse and Xilnais, can leverage the special authority of the Yin World to forcibly erase the existing side stream of time and reselect it. However, in Feng Yuan’s view, doing so is meaningless.

Although this time the luck doesn’t seem very good, with both emerging side streams of time being either war or strongly war-desired timelines, Feng Yuan understands one thing clearly: even if he changes the time stream, such wars will still appear in the future. After all, until there is a real confrontation, humans will never believe in the unfortunate consequences.

Unable and powerless to stop the arrival of war, naturally, Feng Yuan isn’t going to worry blindly about it. After all, there are Divine Beasts watching, so things aren’t likely to get too out of hand.

The developed area inside the Hellfire Mine designated as a scenic spot isn’t particularly large. Feng Yuan and the others soon finished touring, and just when they were about to leave after seeing the last Lava Waterfall, Feng Yuan heard a creaking sound and looked around in confusion.

That creaking sound would occasionally emerge, and in Feng Yuan’s ears, the existence making this creaking sound seemed to be approaching them.

At first, Qi Chen and the others didn’t quite understand why Feng Yuan stopped. However, they soon heard that strange creaking in the noisy sound of flames and airflow.

"What is this sound?"

Qi Chen looked around puzzled and curious, but no matter where he looked, he couldn’t see the source of that strange sound.

"It seems like the sound of a Spirit Beast, but this cry..."

Dou Yanlan rubbed her chin in confusion, feeling that this sound was very peculiar and seems to have seen a similar description somewhere.

"It seems to be Carlott? Is this the distribution area of lighters?"

Compared to Dou Yanlan, Feng Yuan guessed which Spirit Beast was causing this noise, but that made it even stranger. Carlott is a special Spirit Beast without an evolutionary form, at least none has been discovered, and its own power isn’t remarkable. However, this doesn’t mean it isn’t useful.

Carlott has a unique ultimate move, which allows it to be active in the Beastmaster competition arena.

But precisely because of this, Carlott isn’t common. After all, they are special Spirit Beasts without fixed distribution areas, let alone many Beastmasters who reserve a spot for them without signing a Taming Beast Contract.

At this moment, Feng Yuan can’t help but think of the Crystal Domain, wondering if Carlott and the Crystal Domain can cooperate.

After all, Carlott’s ultimate move is indeed quite special.

The creaking sound gets closer and closer, and soon everyone sees an orange-yellow little dinosaur jumping out from the sea of fire. Although Carlott’s power isn’t particularly strong, besides its inherent ultimate move, fire immunity is the most special.

Clearly not an Elemental Creature, yet magically immune to all fire attribute damage below Divine Beast Level.

"Is this... wild?"

Feng Yuan looked in surprise at a nearby staff member. Carlott’s appearance is just like a cute orange-yellow little dinosaur, with the whole little dinosaur only supported by a pair of strong hind legs. As for those forelimbs? Pathetically small, almost already degenerated to the point unable to perform grasping actions.

As it made creaking sounds, Carlott dashed to the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound’s side, opening its small mouth to bite down. However, the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound had long guarded against this fellow, evading before its mouth could act.

Seeing Carlott chasing the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound trying to get a bite, the staff member said helplessly

"Right, although we have a Carlott Sanctuary here, it is indeed wild."

The sanctuary is a protection measure specifically provided for certain wild Spirit Beasts. Wild Spirit Beasts within the sanctuary cannot be contracted, but if they willingly leave with a Beastmaster, they aren’t restricted.

Spirits like Carlott, naturally, have a sanctuary. However, Feng Yuan didn’t expect to find a sanctuary right in the Hellfire Mine.

And the staff’s meaning is that this Carlott is not within the sanctuary’s protection range, which confuses Feng Yuan a bit.

"What’s this little guy’s situation?"

"It... yearns for freedom, yet doesn’t want to suffer."

Glancing at that Carlott, even though Carlott all look alike, no, almost all Spirit Beasts look alike within the same species, yet he can easily recognize this peculiar freedom-yearning little guy.

"Uhh... maybe likes roaming around, yet unable to accept or cope with the troubles faced in solitary life?"

Feng Yuan paused, tentatively asked. The staff member nodded, saying helplessly and in frustration

"Exactly, so this guy always runs around here, occasionally causing trouble for our visitors."

"It truly is, hmm... Veronia, help me ask if we can let it assist with some experiments?"

Smiling, Feng Yuan doesn’t continue the topic. This Carlott is just at the Hellfire Mine; in this place, nearly no illegal organizations dare to act.

Just kidding, this is in the city, Carlott’s value isn’t high enough to make them challenge Great Xia like this.

"Assist with experiments?"

Veronia looked at Feng Yuan puzzled, shrugging, Feng Yuan said

"It concerns the relationship between Magical Flames and Crystal Domain. Magical Flames should belong to conversion attributes, right? No idea why they overlooked this issue during experiments."

About the relationship between attribute conversion and Crystal Domain, many are researching. However, those papers don’t show Carlott’s presence.

Certainly, Carlott and common Spirit Beasts are slightly different. It only adds fire attribute to ultimate move attributes as its special ultimate move; its abilities elsewhere aren’t strong. Generally, Beastmasters rarely consider contracting it with a Taming Beast Contract.

And those current studies mainly focus on beast taming. As for Spirit Beasts using Spirit Beast Contract, corresponding studies haven’t started.

"Magical Flames and Crystal Domain? Oh, Crystal Domain limits the ultimate move attribute!"

The staff member initially didn’t understand Feng Yuan’s words, but quickly responded, looking at Feng Yuan in surprise.

Gazing puzzled at Feng Yuan, Veronia said

"But can’t similar studies get a rough conclusion?"

"Not the same; Magical Flames don’t simply convert an ultimate to fire attribute. I recall it turns the target’s ultimate into a flame special move. Attribute-wise, it adds fire attribute, rather than direct change. For similar Spirit Beast ultimate skills, I haven’t seen anyone studying."

Shaking his head, Feng Yuan said, Carlott’s Magical Flames aren’t like previous attribute conversion ultimates, which directly convert the attribute of the ultimate.

Whereas Carlott’s Magical Flames differ, adding an attribute. How this alteration impacts Crystal Domain’s effect, Feng Yuan isn’t quite sure.

Certainly, trialing is trialing, but Feng Yuan hasn’t thought about taking this Carlott away: it’s of no use, troublesome.

Even if Little Ice Cream is mostly taken care of by Big Cat and others now, Feng Yuan still takes time occasionally to check them and inspect their health conditions.

Moreover, this Carlott is free-spirited and untamed. Really bringing it back might mean searching daily for this home-leaving little fellow.

After contemplating a moment, Veronia said

"Alright, I’ll give it a try."

Though she said she’d try, Feng Yuan always feels Veronia seems to use her strong power to pressure Carlott into agreement, given that little dinosaur’s face showed total grievance and stubbornness.

The nearby staff don’t know whether to stop them; forcing wild Spirit Beasts to do what they don’t want is against regulations, but... Veronia isn’t human...
