Beastmaster: I'm really just a forest ranger

Chapter 379 The Brilliant Moon Quality! The Lord of the Azure Sea!
Seeing Egg's actions, Chen Yuan and the little ones froze on the spot.

Why does this guy act like a farm boss?
Just as Sprite was about to run over to play with Egg, she abruptly stopped, scraping the ground with her paws. Then she blinked, looking at the little dragon in front of her with a puzzled expression: "Awoo?"

The boss is here, and the leader of the cola gang is here too. Isn't Egg being a bit too arrogant?

But Egg just flicked its long, thin dragon tail and quietly felt the potential in its body. A sense of nobility and pride from the depths of its bloodline instantly filled its small body.

Egg once again raised its exquisite dragon head, its chin held high, and its pair of deep blue dragon eyes, containing the depths of a galaxy, swept disdainfully over Chen Yuan and the other pet beasts. A dragon roar resounded: "Roar~"

Sprite tilted its head, its clear eyes filled with great confusion. It slowly walked up to Egg and waved its paw: "Awoo?"

Egg, what's wrong with you?

"hold head high!"

Upon hearing this name, Egg's eyes widened, it turned its head away, and its dragon roar contained anger.

Don't call me by that name!
I'm not an egg!
"Awoo?" Sprite was completely puzzled by Egg's reaction. It frowned and stared at it, its tail swaying left and right at an extremely fast pace.

But you are an egg!

I'm not!
Who are you!

Do not!
For a moment, the two little ones stared at each other, their heads almost touching. They looked at each other, each with a stubborn expression.

"Ang~"

Until Egg turned its head, and then gently swayed its body, a layer of swirling mist, like celestial energy, naturally spread around it, making its exquisite body appear and disappear in the mist, adding a touch of mystery and majesty.

It slowly took off and flew into the air. Although it swayed slightly, its posture was perfectly controlled.

"Ang~"

It looked down at Sprite with an arrogant disdain, as if to say, "I can fly, but Egg can't, so I'm not Egg."

"Ouch!"

Sprite's eyes widened, her face full of excitement, and then she took off on her chubby limbs, chasing after Egg, barking all the way.

yeah!
Eggs can fly!
"hold head high"

Egg was speechless for a moment, then stumbled and almost fell to the ground. It took a deep look at Sprite, who was running happily on the snow, and sighed deeply. Finally, it decided to ignore this annoying guy.

It began to fly slowly around the farm, like a king inspecting his new territory.

It flew over vegetable plots, fishponds, chicken coops, and the simple, unadorned gate, its deep dragon eyes carefully scrutinizing every corner.

"Ow?"

Cola was puzzled by Egg's every move. It turned to look at Chen Yuan and voiced its doubts.

Gazing at the egg-shaped creature, which was surrounded by clouds and mist and looked almost exactly like the legendary Eastern dragon that could summon wind and rain, Chen Yuan smiled and nodded in satisfaction.

His previous guess was correct; the egg that hatched was indeed a dragon-type pet, and all his previous doubts were finally answered.

No wonder Egg was valued so much by those shrimp soldiers and crab generals, who even went so far as to hunt down poachers across thousands of miles; no wonder the Azure Cloud Dragon was so friendly to Egg, even selflessly sharing the cold pool with it.

All of this is because Egg is a dragon-type pet, and its quality must be extremely high.

As his thoughts raced, Egg, who resembled a king, had finished surveying the farm and flew back above Chen Yuan and the other pets.

It glanced around the farm it had just inspected, then shook its head with obvious disdain, letting out a childish roar that was clearly tinged with displeasure but tried to sound profound: "Roar~"

This place is so simple and plain, it is hardly worthy of my noble status.

Upon hearing this, all the pets present stared blankly at Egg, who was raising its head and roaring like a dragon. Spark even narrowed its eyes slightly, its eyes flashing with gold and red.

"Ang~"

Seeing the reactions of the other beasts, Egg's eyes flashed. It raised its head again and let out an even clearer dragon roar, while stretching out its four small dragon claws. With its arrogant and disdainful gaze, it seemed to be issuing a sacred decree.

However, considering your kindness in taking care of me during this time, I will reluctantly accept this place as a temporary resting place.

From this moment on, this farm is my territory!

Serve me well, and when I return to this place one day, you will all be rewarded!

"Ang~"

Egg hovered above Chen Yuan's head, its delicate body appearing and disappearing in the light mist, anticipating the grateful reactions of the pets.

But the pets' reactions greatly disappointed it.

Runrun Duck looked completely unconcerned. Taking advantage of Dian Dian Flying Cat's inattention, it tiptoed into the lobby to steal snacks and then showed a smug smile after succeeding.

Electric Flying Cat stared at Egg, lost in thought, its eyes darting around as it began to consider the feasibility of recruiting the guy into the adventure team.
Sprite stared wide-eyed at its friend, who had become completely unfamiliar. It couldn't understand why Egg had turned into this.

The chicks clucked incessantly, their feathers fluttering everywhere, as if discussing how to please the Morning and Evening Flower Fairy.

Egg was very dissatisfied with their reaction. It snorted coldly, then flicked its tail and flew quickly to the front of Chen Yuan's bedroom, pointing with its paw: "Roar!"

I will live here from now on!
No one is allowed to disturb me!

Chen Yuan, watching this guy's every move, finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.

I thought that after Egg was born, the farm would have a solid, reliable, and excellent employee. But it turns out that this guy not only wants to be the boss of the farm, but also plans to take over my room.

Who gave this guy the courage?

Yumi, who was peeking from the tree, was even more dumbfounded. Her demonic tentacles shimmered with a strange light like breathing lights: "Coo-choo?"

Is this newborn pet really that brave?

Doesn't it know how dangerous this farm is? Even I, Lord Youmi, have to temporarily avoid its sharp edge.

"Ow!"

Finally, Cola, who had been watching the whole thing, couldn't take it anymore.

This little guy actually dared to declare himself the boss on its territory, right in front of it, and even wanted to take over the master's bedroom.

Suddenly, Cola's eyes flashed with a faint blue light, and a low, authoritative warning whimper rolled from its throat: "Awooo!"

An invisible yet immense spiritual pressure suddenly surged forth like a raging tide, precisely covering the egg flying in mid-air.

"hold head high?!"

As Egg was flying towards Chen Yuan's bedroom, it suddenly froze. A tremendous sense of fear from the depths of its soul poured over it like ice water. Even though it was a dragon-type pet, the newly born Egg was utterly powerless in the face of Cola's formidable power.

The swirling mist around him suddenly dissipated, and his small, exquisite body trembled violently. With a thud, Egg fell directly from mid-air, landing upside down in the soft snowdrift beside him, with only his dragon tail still dangling weakly outside.

"quack!"

"Electricity!"

"Cuckoo~"

Seeing this comical scene, Chen Yuan and the little ones were stunned for a second before bursting into laughter. Even the usually calm Spark had a hint of amusement in her eyes, and Morning and Evening Flower Fairy was all smiles.

Egg struggled to pull itself out of the snowdrift, shaking off the snowflakes covering its head and face. It felt as if its face had been burned by flames, and at that moment, embarrassment and anger filled its mind.

It first glared fiercely at the laughing guys around it, warning them with its eyes, before finally putting on a show of composure and slowly taking off again, trying to maintain its noble and dignified image that had long since crumbled. But its slightly trembling little paws and the slow movement as it left the bedroom completely betrayed it.

Chen Yuan smiled and shook his head. He walked over to Dandan, who was clearly devastated but still trying to stay strong, squatted down, and said in a gentle but slightly teasing tone, "You have quite the ambition, don't you? You want to treat this place as your own territory? You want to be the boss here?"

Upon hearing this, Egg immediately raised its head slightly, waving its dragon claws wildly and making a stubborn gurgling sound in its throat: "Roar!" Chen Yuan pointed to the three little guys beside him: "It's good to have ambition, but here, to be the boss, you have to rely on your strength."

Following Chen Yuan's pointing finger, Egg looked ahead and saw the imposing Cola, surrounded by what seemed like an invisible pressure. The latter noticed Egg's gaze, grinned, and Egg immediately trembled uncontrollably, letting out a humble dragon roar: "Roar!"

Don't be afraid!
I am the most noble and supreme dragon in the world!
Egg mustered its courage and continued to look ahead.

It saw Spark again, floating in the air with wings flowing with golden-red light, its expression elegant and sacred. It also saw the Morning and Evening Flower Fairy, covering her mouth and laughing softly, exuding a peaceful and gentle aura.

"If you want to be the boss, you have to ask them if they agree first," Chen Yuan said with a smile.

Egg's deep blue eyes flickered, and once again, with a cautious and evaluative gaze, it swept over Cola, Spark, and Dawn Fairy in turn.

When it saw the sharp, piercing gaze of the cola and felt the surging, fierce wind, its little heart involuntarily trembled.

When it saw the spark's majestic form, seemingly carrying the might of heaven, and felt its scorching heat, it felt as if it were immersed in molten lava.

Finally, its gaze fell upon the smiling Morning and Evening Flower Fairy.

Hmm, this guy looks small, and he has such a sweet smile. He exudes a warm and comfortable aura, and doesn't seem aggressive at all. He also doesn't have the same unsettling and oppressive feeling as the other two.

Pick the persimmons that are soft!
Let's establish our authority with this first! Let's restore our royal glory!

A cunning glint flashed in Egg's eyes. It immediately stretched out its little paw, pointing firmly at the seemingly most harmless Morning and Evening Flower Fairy. At the same time, it cleared its throat and let out a dragon roar, attempting to regain its majesty: "Roar~"

The Morning and Evening Flower Fairy blinked its large amber-gold eyes, seemingly surprised by Egg's choice, but it quickly nodded, then covered its mouth and chuckled softly before gracefully flying to the center of the arena.

Chen Yuan and the other pets all revealed meaningful smiles.

Did this guy not inherit any memories from his egg-like stage?
Half a minute later.

"Ang ang wu"

The once spirited Egg was now lying stiffly on the snow, its body convulsing violently. Ominous purplish-black spots spread across its blue crystal-like scales, white foam uncontrollably escaping from its mouth, and its tiny dragon claws twitching, clearly suffering intense torment from the poison.

Half a minute ago, the Morning and Evening Flower Fairy simply waved her petal hand, releasing a small cluster of poisonous spores, and Egg, unable to dodge in time, ended up looking like this.

Come to think of it, after this period of arduous training, the Morning and Evening Flower Fairy is at least a powerful pet beast that is infinitely close to breaking through to the fourth tier. Even if Egg Egg's quality is high, it is still far inferior to the Morning and Evening Flower Fairy and has no power to resist.

Not to mention the Morning and Evening Fairy, even Sprite, or any little chick, could easily handle this little dragon.

"Quack quack!"

"Electricity!"

"Giggle!"

The little ones couldn't help but burst into laughter again, and even Spark shook his head helplessly.

Yumi watched the whole process of Egg falling over from afar. She covered her face with her little paws, shaking her head in disbelief, and whimpered, "Chirp."

What a hopeless little fool dragon!
Upon arriving, instead of first figuring out who to mess with and who not to mess with, he rashly went to challenge them. He was even more foolish than that stupid cat!
I, Lord Youmi, am the smartest!

Chen Yuan suppressed a laugh, quickly squatted down, took out a special antidote from his small bag, and carefully fed it into Egg's mouth.

The medicine took effect quickly; the toxic spots on Egg's body gradually faded, and the convulsions gradually stopped.

It weakly opened its eyes, its gaze extremely complex, filled not only with disbelief but also revealing immense humiliation and intense resentment.

It was a noble dragon, and it was defeated just like that?!
Seeing its dejected and doubtful expression, Chen Yuan asked softly, "How are you? Do you still want to be the boss?"

He paused briefly, then changed the subject, his voice becoming incredibly seductive: "Or rather, do you want to become stronger? Do you want to become stronger and then defeat them?"

Chen Yuan pointed to the three little ones beside him, his smile bright, as if he really cared about Dandan.

Upon hearing this, Egg suddenly raised its head, its gaze fixed on the smiling, seemingly gentle and kind Morning and Evening Flower Fairy. A fierce fighting spirit instantly ignited in its eyes, and it forcefully tapped its proud dragon head.

Chen Yuan waved his hand, his voice carrying an inspiring power: "I can help you become stronger, but there's a prerequisite."

He deliberately dragged out his words, and Dandan immediately looked eagerly at Chen Yuan, who had a smile on his face.

Chen Yuan slowly said, "You have to stay on the farm and work like everyone else."

Upon hearing this, Egg's eyes flickered violently. Its proud nature made it extremely resistant to "work," something that sounded degrading.

It looked around the simple farm it had previously looked down on, its gaze sweeping over the powerful pets around it, until the desire to become stronger and the determination to avenge itself overwhelmed its aversion to "work".

It silently clenched its small dragon claws, lowered its eyes, and its long dragon tail swayed unnaturally from side to side, reluctantly nodding: "Roar~"

Seeing that Egg had agreed so easily, Yumi, who was not far away, waved its paw vigorously, then immediately showed a heartbroken expression, shook its head and sighed, "Coo-choo!"

Another foolish pet has been tricked into working by that despicable two-legged creature with the promise of "becoming stronger"!
Youmi is truly wise!
I yearn for freedom! To be unrestrained! I will never work!

Seeing that Dandan nodded in agreement, Chen Yuan smiled with satisfaction. Then he slowly reached out and gently touched the cool, moist, and wonderfully smooth little dragon head.

The moment his fingertips touched the crystalline scales, the cold, impersonal system notification sounded precisely on time.

[Upon first acquisition of the Azure Sea Spirit Lord, Source Points increased by 20]

Clouds hang low over the sea (rough understanding 0.1/3) +
A mirage (rough understanding 0.1/3) +

[Requirement for promotion to Sunrise quality: Insufficient Source Points]

The moment Chen Yuan saw the data panel, his pupils contracted sharply, his breathing became rapid, and his eyes gleamed.

He exhaled lightly, and his expression quickly returned to normal, but his thoughts continued to surge like a tide.

The Lord of the Azure Sea—just hearing that name is enough to make him seem extraordinary.

The name "Cangming" refers to the vast and boundless sea, and is also associated with the high and deep sky. The name "Spirit Lord" further emphasizes the high status of the Spirit Lord, corresponding to the attributes and qualities of the Cangming Spirit Lord.

"Moonlight quality, this guy's background is indeed extraordinary." Chen Yuan's eyes flashed as he sighed.

No wonder the Azure Sea Spirit Lord is treated specially by so many pets; it turns out that this guy's quality is unbelievably high.

Since becoming a Beast Tamer, Chen Yuan has faced the World Tree of Gods and chatted with its Sun-quality Azure Amber, but he has never seen such a high-quality pet again.

At this stage, Morning Star quality pets are already extremely rare and sought after by countless beast tamers, not to mention the even higher Moon quality, which Chen Yuan has not yet heard of any beast tamer possessing.

But right now, there was one right in front of him, a water-type pet that he had been longing for for a long time.

A water-based dragon-type pet, isn't this a water dragon?
Coupled with unpredictable and unpredictable mental skills, once the level of the Cangming Spirit Lord is high enough, he will be absolutely invincible in battles against opponents of the same level.

With a flash of inspiration, Chen Yuan began to focus on studying the skills that the Cangming Spirit Lord currently possessed.

Compared to Spark's initially rudimentary data panel, which only showed one skill, [Flame Surge], the Azure Sea Spirit Lord's data panel is undoubtedly much more luxurious, with a very rich skill pool.

The preceding [Water Surge] and [Water Bomb] are self-explanatory; they are very basic water-based skills that can ensure the minimum offensive capability of the Azure Sea Spirit Lord. But what kind of skill is the following [Cloud Sea Standing Tall]?
Chen Yuan searched his mind for a long time but couldn't recall any relevant information, so he knew that this was a racial skill of the Cangming Spirit Lord.

"The name sounds intimidating," Chen Yuan muttered.

As for the last one, 【Mirror Flower Water Moon】, it is an out-and-out mental skill. Its effect is to create one or more illusory clones made of mental energy, which have some of the original's abilities and are difficult to distinguish from the real one. These clones are used to confuse opponents, attract fire, or carry out coordinated attacks.

According to Chen Yuan's understanding, this is a very difficult mental skill to master, requiring extremely high talent and comprehension from the pet.

But once mastered, it's like having an extra trump card that can play a crucial role in battle.

After briefly analyzing the data panel of the Azure Sea Spirit Master, Chen Yuan stared intently at the little guy in front of him, his gaze burning with fervor, and murmured, "Isn't this the most suitable water-type pet for a contract?"
