My beast can't be a demon.
Chapter 252 Heading to New State
Chapter 252 Heading to New State
The commotion caused by Hanabi's evolution continues.
The entire secret flower field has been completely blocked, with only exit allowed but no entry.
The authorities almost immediately sent a professional team to confirm the safety level of the flower field secret realm at this time.
However, before that, a large number of beastmasters had already begun searching in various places in the secret realm.
If it were retrograde at this time, it would be too conspicuous.
So Zhou Lu pretended to be very busy and looked around.
Hua Huo once again turned back into the appearance of a good person and followed Zhou Lu as they wandered around the secret realm of the flower field.
After three days of turmoil, the authorities announced that the commotion might have been caused by some special meteorological phenomenon, because they had searched the entire secret realm but could not find the location of the so-called quasi-god.
Only then did Zhou Lu follow the disappointed group and leave the flower field secret realm.
After returning to the real world, Zhou Lu went straight to his temporary residence.
Wu Xiaoqing was not at home at this time.
Zhou Lu returned to the room and started packing his luggage.
He planned to set off for New South Wales after the beast taming exam was over in the first half of the year.
Zhou Lu only needs to come back before the beast taming exam in the second half of the year. The school will not care about other things.
Hanabi was already a quasi-god, so the beast taming exam was not difficult at all for him.
After preparing for a few days, Zhou Lu even finished the exam at the fastest speed.
At this point, he didn't intend to hide Hanabi's strength too much.
As long as he doesn't reveal the fact that Huo Huo has evolved into the Nine-Life Herb, he won't get into too much trouble.
After all, the Beastmaster Academy produces one or two geniuses every year.
However, many of them became ordinary people in the days that followed, and only a few of them could truly become powerful beast tamers.
During the Zhoulu Express Test, when I was standing at the registration desk to register my scores, students who had completed the test later began to walk out of the examination room.
This beast taming exam is actually not that easy.
All students need to cross an extremely dangerous canyon within the specified time.
This canyon is filled with a large number of dangerous spiritual beasts.
Therefore, even with the protection of security teachers in the dark, the school cannot guarantee the safety of all students.
This is also the Beast Taming Examination with the highest elimination rate except for the first Beast Taming Examination.
Before the exam, the school had made it clear that students could withdraw from the exam if they were afraid of danger or death.
After all, you only live once, but you can fail the beast taming exam three times.
Students will be expelled from the Beast Taming Academy if they fail the Beast Taming Examination three times.
This is actually a very tolerant policy.
By this beast taming exam, students with a little ability already have a second or even third spirit pet.
With the cooperation between the spirit pets, it is actually no problem for them to travel through such a dangerous canyon.
And this is no problem for Huahuo.
"Strange." The teacher who was recording the results looked at the students coming in one after another and showed a puzzled expression, "Today's pass rate seems a bit high."
Although it’s not nice to say that.
However, in previous exams like this, if 60% to 70% of the students were not eliminated, it would be considered a mistake in selection.
Zhou Lu heard the registrar's mumbling and didn't know what to say.
You can't say that I'm the culprit this time, right?
Since the school repeatedly emphasized the danger level of the canyon, Zhou Lu actually had higher expectations when he took the exam.
He subconsciously forgot one thing—Hanabi had already reached quasi-god status.
After all, this is the first time in his life that Zhou Lu has become a beastmaster of a quasi-divine pet, so he is not very experienced.
So in order to pass the test as quickly as possible, Zhou Lu used the simplest and most brutal method: just plow the entire canyon with violence.
Hanabi didn't even do it herself.
It released three vine giants.
Then all the so-called dangerous spirit beasts in the entire canyon suffered and became part of the fireworks attribute.
As they were speaking, the security teachers who were sent to the canyon to ensure the safety of the students also walked out with terrified looks on their faces.
"It's the Vine Titans." One of the male teachers said, "It's strange, why do they appear in this secret realm? Shouldn't they be new spiritual beasts that haunt the mountain secret realm?"
Vine Titan?
What kind of spiritual beast is this?
Why don’t I remember having memorized such a spiritual beast when I was memorizing the illustrations?
When Zhou Lu heard the conversation between the group of people, he felt confused.
But all the professors and teachers present became serious.
However, many of them had a hint of excitement on their faces: "Is it really a vine titan? That's great! If we can capture them and tame them, our academy might have a signature pet!"
"Be careful." Someone immediately started to pour cold water on the situation. "The Vine Titan is very violent and ferocious. Didn't it destroy a wild breeding base of chickadees during its first appearance?"
Hearing the conversation between several people, Zhou Lu's heart moved.
On the way back, he opened his cell phone to check.
Damn it!
The team that tried to use sick birds to infect the little titmouse in the secret mountain realm, after their base was destroyed by Hanabi's vine giant, immediately went back and wrote a paper about vine titans.
In this paper, they wrote extensively about this new spiritual beast, which aroused the interest of many people.
Sure enough, what capital is best at is turning bad things into good things.
Even if it doesn't turn out to be a good thing, they will try their best to make it a huge traffic.
Zhou Lu complained in his heart and returned to the cabin.
"Sister Xiaoqing, you are eating instant noodles in the lab again." As Zhou Lu entered the room, he smelled a strong aroma of sauerkraut beef noodles.
Wu Xiaoqing slurped her noodles: "It doesn't have any impact."
"Aren't you afraid that your experimental materials will be infected by bacteria again?" Zhou Lu said helplessly.
Wu Xiaoqing waved her hand and said, "Let's not talk about this. Did your exam go well?"
"Perfect. I can prepare to go to New Jersey." Zhou Lu said.
After hearing Zhou Lu's words, Wu Xiaoqing stopped eating and asked, "Have you thought it through?"
"I always have the ability to do so now." Zhou Lu showed a rare confident expression.
Wu Xiaoqing really had no way to refute this point.
She had to admit that Zhou Lu was now stronger than her.
It's outrageous if you think about it carefully.
A year ago, Zhou Lu was even thinking about how to pass his first beast taming exam.
At that time, Huo Huo was a first-level spiritual pet that had just completed its transformation.
As a result, just one year later, Hanabi transformed herself into a quasi-god.
The speed of evolution is so fast that even the most experienced beast tamer would be confused.
"Okay, I've got you a status here, and you can go to Xinzhou with a legitimate reason." As she said that, Wu Xiaoqing opened a drawer beside her and started searching.
Status?
What status?
Zhou Lu was wondering what was going on when he saw Wu Xiaoqing take out a certificate and handed it to him.
"Disaster Investigation Committee?" Zhou Lu saw the title of the certificate and read it subconsciously.
Then, he asked in confusion: "What is this?" "Hasn't New South Wales been hit by frequent disasters in recent decades? In fact, many people think there is a problem, but the official opinion has never been unified."
Wu Xiaoqing explained to Zhou Lu.
"NSW has also been refusing official help, so the situation remains stuck there."
"Isn't this a call to gather the whole world's strength to help them? Why would the New South Wales region refuse?"
"Who knows what they are thinking." Wu Xiaoqing looked at Zhou Lu and said, "I now seriously doubt the composition of the Xinzhou group. There may be a few members of the Yan Gui group among them."
"So, what is this disaster investigator?"
"The story starts with the immortal you helped Ye Qingyu capture." Wu Xiaoqing said, "Although he is very tight-lipped, dreams don't lie. Xiao'e found some things in his dream, all related to Xinzhou."
"The authorities have pressured the New South Wales government to give in. This is the certificate they issued to me as an invitation for me to assist in the investigation."
Zhou Lu immediately showed a puzzled expression: "Aren't you studying mushrooms? How did you get involved with natural disaster investigations?"
"The fungus they use to detect weather was invented by me." Wu Xiaoqing said, spreading her hands.
……
No, Sister Xiaoqing, do you really have a presence everywhere?
And is this mushroom really omnipotent in your hands? How come it even has the ability to detect weather conditions?
Going a step further, are you planning to use mushrooms to call the wind and rain?
Zhou Lu complained in his heart.
However, he still accepted Wu Xiaoqing's pass.
With this certificate, he now had a nominal purpose for traveling to New South Wales.
After resting in the cabin for a night, Zhou Lu set off with Hua Huo the next morning.
Xinzhou and Xinyue are far apart, so Zhou Lu chose to fly there.
With such a flying distance, it is basically impossible for a spiritual pet below the level of a quasi-god to reach it in one breath.
And spiritual pets above quasi-god level will not lower themselves to serve as flying tools.
Therefore, the flights of this distance are basically occupied by aircraft developed and manufactured by humans themselves.
With the advancement of human technology, many things that were once only done by pets are gradually being replaced by modern technology.
What surprised Zhou Lu was that he actually saw an acquaintance on the plane.
"Li Dongjiang?" Zhou Lu looked at the man in front of him who greeted him enthusiastically and asked in confusion, "Are you going to Xinzhou?"
"What a coincidence." Li Dongjiang was quite enthusiastic. "I'm sending my nephew to Xinzhou."
Zhou Lu followed the direction Li Dongjiang pointed and saw a familiar figure.
Li Ganxian.
The protagonist of the Li family's contract banquet.
Zhou Lu had met him once before.
"Are you going to study in such a far place?" Zhou Lu narrowed his eyes.
He saw Li Ganxian’s pet lying at his feet.
This behavior is actually not unusual.
The space on an airplane is limited, and many pets are not well adapted to the airplane environment, so most beastmasters choose to put their pets into a beast card when traveling on an airplane.
Even though Hua Huo was extremely reluctant, Zhou Lu put it back into the Beast Taming Card when getting on the plane.
But Li Ganxian did not do so.
Is this because his spirit pet has adapted to this environment and doesn’t think it’s a hindrance at all, or is it... he simply doesn’t have a Beast Taming Card?
"There's no other way. Xinzhou is more suitable for my nephew." Li Dongjiang's voice brought Zhou Lu back to reality.
Although Li Dongjiang actually wanted to make friends with Zhou Lu, Zhou Lu did not intend to have too much friendship with him, a member of the Li family.
So after a few pleasantries, Li Dongjiang returned to his seat.
Zhou Lu leaned against the window, looking at the clouds below the plane while glancing at the Li family duo not far away.
Such a big thing has happened at home, would you still go away?
The Beastmaster Academy is not a school with strict management. You must have a legitimate reason. Why are you in such a hurry to go back?
Zhou Lu thought so and closed his eyes.
He turned on his empathy and entered Hanabi's perspective.
Although Fireworks was still in the Beast Taming Card at this time, she still retained the ability to control the external branches.
Zhou Lu used empathy to control its tiny flying branches through fireworks and flew up.
Soon, one or two of the branches began to parasitize on Li Ganxian's body.
I want to see what you, the Li family, are up to.
A day later, after flying for nearly thirty hours, the plane landed steadily at the airport in the capital of New South Wales.
After Zhou Lu said goodbye to the two members of the Li family, he left the airport with his suitcase.
New South Wales is a mountainous place.
Nearly 90% of the state is covered by highlands and mountains.
After Zhou Lu landed, he looked up and saw nothing but towering mountains.
And among these mountains and rivers, there are also small mountain villages.
These small mountain villages have often been the hardest hit areas by natural disasters in recent years.
Often after a round of disasters, several villages will be completely destroyed.
If it were somewhere else, the authorities would have already proposed a project to arrange for these villages to relocate collectively and settle in safer places.
But local authorities in New South Wales rejected the project.
In their words, the land is too heavy to move, and the residents of those mountain villages strongly oppose the relocation project.
Another reason is that the local governments have no money in their accounts and are unable to sustain such a large-scale operation.
There must be something fishy about this.
After Zhou Lu left the airport, he rushed to the mountains without stopping.
Not long ago, a forest fire broke out in the mountains over there. If a beastman who was passing by on a business trip had not taken timely action, the mountain village where the fire spread would have been completely destroyed in an instant.
Although the wildfire has been extinguished at this time, the series of events triggered by it are still brewing and about to erupt.
The most outrageous thing is actually the operation in New South Wales.
They detained the beastmaster who helped the villagers escape the disaster on the grounds that he was using spirit pets recklessly in the real world.
This is fucking outrageous.
This also forced Zhou Lu to come up with some conspiracy theories.
Of course, Zhou Lu doesn't like to wrongly accuse people.
So he decided to go to the scene to investigate and see what had caused the disaster.
Using this as a breakthrough, perhaps we can find the real reason why New South Wales has suffered so many disasters in recent years.
Because he holds a disaster investigator certificate, Zhou Lu is allowed to summon and use his own pet outside the city.
As soon as he left the city, Zhou Lu immediately summoned Crescent Moon.
After riding on the Crescent, they headed towards the mountains where the wildfire had occurred.
