Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 189 Waiting_1
Chapter 189: Chapter 189 Waiting_1
"It’s not that I don’t want to teach you, but at your age, you simply can’t manage it,"
"You’re lying, big brother! Clearly, Sister Xiao Han couldn’t stop Da Wang. You’re just being stingy!"
Being despised by Xiao Ling, Feng Yuan scratched his face with his index finger, not knowing how to explain. After a while, Ye Hanlei put away her communicator, and turned to Feng Yuan with a barrage of scolding. Xiao Liao, arms crossed, stood by and watched the show. When Ye Hanlei finally grew tired and stopped her scolding, Feng Yuan pointed to Agunas who was following him and said,
"In terms of safety, I’m safer anywhere than by your side... Plus, I wasn’t acting alone. I just went ahead to secure the spatial node,"
"But you can’t just do things on your own! What if it’s a trap on the other side?"
"Otherwise, should we let the enemy disappear again?"
"This..."
Ye Hanlei was stumped by Feng Yuan’s retort and hesitated for a long time without replying. Xiao Liao patted Feng Yuan’s back and said,
"Not bad, kid, you helped us solve a big problem right away."
"Hehe~ Did I earn some merit for this?"
Watching Feng Yuan, Xiao Liao shook his head and spread his hands, saying,
"I don’t know about that. The criteria for earning merit is up to Captain Yan. Go ask him later."
"Xiao Ji, go and keep an eye on Xiao Ling for me, don’t let her get into any danger."
Seeing that Xiao Ling seemed a bit bored and was preparing to go elsewhere with Da Wang, Feng Yuan instructed Xiao Ji, who shifted his body on top of Feng Yuan’s head and let out a reluctant chirp. Xiao Liao chuckled and said to Feng Yuan,
"Don’t worry about Xiao Ling. They often play around in this area and won’t encounter any danger. Besides, Da Wang is with her. The Fluffy Dog’s strength is at least stronger than your Eggshell Chicken."
Seeing Xiao Liao glance at him, Xiao Ji shifted his body and didn’t take issue with Xiao Liao’s comment. After explaining to Xiao Ling again not to get close to these strange things, Feng Yuan let Xiao Ling go. Standing there and feeling bored after a while, Feng Yuan asked,
"Are we just going to wait here?"
"What else? If nobody watches this gate and something happens, you’ll have trouble. Just wait; I expect Captain Yan will be here soon."
Seeing Ye Hanlei observing through the stone gate, Feng Yuan asked somewhat curiously,
"What is she doing?"
"She’s observing the situation on the other side. After all, it’s unclear over there; we can’t go through recklessly."
"But how did you establish the spatial link? Is that little crocodile a space-attribute Spirit Beast?"
"While Agunas did help to set up the Space Gate, Agunas is not a space-attribute Spirit Beast."
"Then how did you find the spatial node? Never mind, it’s probably your secret."
"Are you playing a game?"
Seeing Xiao Liao talking to him while playing on his phone, Feng Yuan was puzzled. Xiao Liao glanced at Ye Hanlei, noticed she wasn’t paying attention to them, and said in a low voice,
"Keep it down."
"Keep what down!"
Captain Yan slapped Xiao Liao’s shoulder and said coldly, causing Xiao Liao to jump and hurriedly put away his phone,
"Captain Yan, you’re here."
Without paying any more attention to Xiao Liao, Captain Yan turned to Feng Yuan and said,
"Where’s this criminal you mentioned who’s abducting children?"
"Abducting children? What criminal?"
Feng Yuan was puzzled but then hurriedly said, freёwebnoѵel.com
"It’s not that we caught them, just found where they’re hiding."
"That’s it, I had Agunas link the place where they’re hiding to our reality temporarily through the Space Gate."
"Reality?"
Captain Yan immediately picked up on the implications in Feng Yuan’s words and nodded before Feng Yuan added,
"Right, they’re hiding within the Data Domain. Although living beings can enter the Data Domain, that place isn’t on the same spatial level as what we usually call reality."
"Alright, no need for further explanations. Is that Space Gate reliable?"
"It’s fine, I guess. There shouldn’t be any problems if there’s no major accident. Even if it gets destroyed, we can set up a new Space Gate to the Data Domain, but..."
Seeing Captain Yan staring at him, Feng Yuan hesitated before continuing,
"After resetting, I’m not clear where the connection on the other side would be."
"So you’re saying the other side is a powerful gang, then..."
"Their strength might not be that great, though. Although the Data Domain exists independently of reality, it is a naturally occurring space, different from those special domains created by Divine Beasts like the Land of Time Tranquility. Otherwise, I wouldn’t dare to set up a Space Gate..."
Upon hearing Feng Yuan’s explanation, Captain Yan pondered for a moment before looking at Feng Yuan and said,
"It might not be quite appropriate, but since you are an external member of our special services team, I’m asking you now if you’re willing to join me and go to the so-called Data Domain to rescue those kids?"
Hesitating for a moment, Feng Yuan replied,
"Can it count as a merit?"
"Yes, but why do you need merits? You’re just an external member. Unless you officially join the service after graduation, there’s no chance of promotion."
"But merits can be exchanged for leave, can’t they? I’m saving up for vacation time~"
"Okay, then. You’ll accompany me later, just make sure not to run off!"
Just then, Feng Yuan’s phone rang, and after answering, he heard Qi Chen’s voice,
"Are you ready to get off work now?"
"Not yet, what’s up?"
"Then I’ll take Big Cat back to the dorm first."
"Meow!"
"Hey! Don’t squeeze!"
"Meow!"
Listening to the sound, it seemed that Big Cat didn’t want to go back to the dorm... "Send Big Cat over to me instead..."
"Where are you now? Can you wait?"
Feng Yuan looked at Captain Yan and said,
"Can we wait for a bit?"
"Sure, we’re waiting for someone anyway, but be quick."
"Are you busy over there? I could help you take it back to the dorm? Hey! Don’t bump into things! Yanlan, help me block it!"
Hearing Big Cat’s cries, Feng Yuan felt a bit helpless. He told Qi Chen his current location and then hung up the phone, looked at the setting sun, and sighed,
"Didn’t realize it’s almost dinner time. Captain Yan, can I go grab something to eat nearby?"
"If you’re not looking for something tasty, someone will bring dinner over in a bit."
As Captain Yan pondered something while standing in front of the stone gate, he said, while taking Xiao Ji off his head, Feng Yuan helplessly looked around and said,
"There’s nothing good to eat in this broken place, forget it, I’ll wait for dinner to be delivered~"
Ye Hanlei had a brief exchange with Captain Yan before being sent off to do something else. As she passed by Feng Yuan, she specifically warned him,
"Don’t wander off later! Captain Yan is not as easy-going as I am!"
Watching Ye Hanlei and Xiao Liao walk away, Feng Yuan muttered,
"I think Captain Yan is much easier to talk to than you."
After a while, several efficient special services team members arrived. One of them handed Feng Yuan a boxed meal. Noticing a particular person among those arriving, Feng Yuan observed the man for a moment.
The man had a short, choppy haircut that looked messy from lack of care. His uniform was casually thrown on, with noticeable stains on it. Captain Yan frowned slightly at the sight of this man but said nothing. Floating next to the man was a dark blue bubble with a water-like, dark blue fox lying on top of it. The eyes on the bubble gazed curiously around.
"That looks like Ponogu..."
Feng Yuan muttered to himself as he picked at his chin. Shaking his head, he found a spot to squat down and opened the boxed meal with some disdain,
"Is it really just this stuff..."
"Be glad you’ve got something to eat. Complain so much - you must be new, right? Getting taken under Captain Yan’s wing from the get-go means he values you a lot. Keep it up~"
A young man clapped Feng Yuan on the shoulder and laughed. Feng Yuan watched him speechlessly, without offering an explanation. Seeing the Dreaming Dragon Baby looking pitifully at him, he remembered he hadn’t brought any Spirit Beast Food and quickly shouted to Captain Yan,
"Captain Yan! Could I have some Spirit Beast Food?"
The man who had just spoken looked at Feng Yuan curiously and said,
"You actually don’t carry Spirit Beast Food with you?"
