Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 1898 - 1899: Encounter
Although some time was wasted earlier, for Feng Yuan and the others, it wasn’t a big deal. Soon, everyone finished gathering the materials. Watching as the raft transformed into a small boat, Veronia muttered,
"It really is a continuous upgrade."
At this moment, the island had sunk quite a bit. The small boat originally docked on the beach was now at a distance due to the sinking island. If the boat wasn’t fixed in space, Feng Yuan suspected it might get swept away by the waves.
Carrying Xiao Ji across the beach submerged by the seawater, Feng Yuan placed it onto the boat. As Xiao Hei jumped onto the boat, it was ready to shake off the water droplets from its body, but before it could act, Feng Yuan grabbed it by the scruff and firmly shook it, saying,
"What are you trying to do?"
Whining, Xiao Hei tried to seek help from Yang Hongzhi, who shook his head helplessly. Yang Hongzhi looked at Feng Yuan, holding Xiao Hei, and said,
"How about I put it back in the Spirit Beast Space first?"
Whimpering softly, Xiao Hei looked at Yang Hongzhi with a face full of grievance, but the latter paid it no mind. Although the small boat was upgraded from a raft, it truly was small. Compared to the previously spacious raft, the boat was just big enough to hold everyone. If Xiao Hei were to shake off water here, everyone on the boat would be splashed by the droplets.
After warning Xiao Hei a few times, Yang Hongzhi directly sent it back into the Spirit Beast Space. After some time, once he assumed Xiao Hei had settled in, he released it again.
Throwing a pitiful look at Yang Hongzhi, Xiao Hei lay on the ground, appearing angry, yet Yang Hongzhi ignored it. Najia approached with a smile, whispering to Xiao Hei and quietly listening as it complained. Feng Yuan looked around and said,
"It seems there are quite a few islands here. At this rate, it’s going to be quite troublesome."
"Indeed, but unfortunately we can’t stop now, or if we sink to the bottom, who knows what might happen?"
Veronia chuckled lightly. She was truly curious about the marine ecosystem of this sea area, as this was a complete Data Domain space. The scene beneath the sea shouldn’t be simply empty, or else it would be a waste of space.
Of course, this was just her guess. Maybe there really was nothing beneath the surface.
"Unfortunately, we don’t know where it is. Do you have any sense of it?"
Sighing, Feng Yuan recalled the matter of the Data Spirit Fox, saying with a face full of helplessness. Agunas closed his eyes and remained silent for a while before saying,
"No, maybe it hasn’t succeeded."
"Or perhaps it’s only halfway there? However, if that’s the case, it seems we ought to help it."
Thinking of a possibility, Veronia smiled slightly and said. However, hearing Veronia’s words, Agunas’s heart skipped a beat. He hadn’t really considered this possibility before. After all, the rule completeness in this area far exceeded the scope of a normal Abnormal Space.
But if the Data Spirit Fox hadn’t yet advanced to Divine Beast, what was up with this space?
Sensory ability between Divine Beasts is practically impossible to block, yet he indeed felt no sense of another Divine Beast in this space now. As for the possibility that the other party isn’t here?
Even if this place is close to the core area, the intrinsic characteristics of Abnormal Space mean any space without suppression quickly devolves in rule completeness, even becoming chaotic. Even the areas Feng Yuan and the others previously passed through actually had low rule completeness.
Otherwise, Feng Yuan and the others wouldn’t have needed to obediently follow the rules to advance, simply because breaking the rules might directly trigger a chain space collapse.
"I wonder if it’s still in the shape of the Data Spirit Fox. Alas, it’s a pity we can’t fly around here, or we might directly find it."
Sighing, Feng Yuan said helplessly. Najia thought of something and looked at Feng Yuan, saying,
"If it’s really in this place, can we find a way to let it know we’re looking for it?"
"Well... if it wanted to reveal itself, wouldn’t it have already appeared?"
Scratching his head, Feng Yuan didn’t quite grasp Najia’s meaning. The rules in this area are clearly suppressed by some special existence, which means the Data Spirit Fox should be aware of everything happening in this area.
Yet it hadn’t appeared until now; presumably, it didn’t wish to come near them, or it would have.
"Maybe it’s not like that, the Data Spirit Fox should have a good relationship with you. Also, perhaps its ability is affected due to advancing to Divine Beast."
Looking around, Najia said. Though Feng Yuan and the Data Spirit Fox didn’t have much interaction, they definitely weren’t strangers. Besides, the Data Spirit Fox had always been with the Special Duty Team. In Najia’s opinion, the Data Spirit Fox likely had a good relationship with the team. Similarly, Feng Yuan, who had a good relationship with the team, could at least be counted as a friend of the Data Spirit Fox.
Of course, this was Najia’s own conjecture. Perhaps most Spirit Beasts think this way, but given some Spirit Beasts might have unique thoughts, he wasn’t entirely sure of his guess.
"Then let’s give it a try. However, if we want it to know we’re here... Hmm, sounds seem more fitting."
Veronia said, summoning several crystal gramophone flowers. Those crystal gramophone flowers began calling out the Data Spirit Fox with loud voices. Feng Yuan, covering his ears, looked at Veronia speechlessly. This was a bit too reckless, wasn’t it?
The deafening shouts echoed through this space. The sky-blue nine-tailed fox, resting in the bushes, twitched its ears, confusedly looking in the direction the sound came from. Hesitating for a moment, it stood up and ran across the water towards the sound.
"Seems it didn’t work."
Releasing the crystal gramophone flowers, Veronia said with a face full of regret. Agunas was about to say something but noticed the sky-blue figure and exclaimed in surprise, 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
"... did you actually guess it right?"
The sky-blue nine-tailed fox’s long fur floated lightly in the wind, as if weightless. Its large tail swept gently across the sea surface without picking up a single droplet, and it gazed at everyone in confusion. Suddenly, the sky-blue nine-tailed fox quickened its pace and charged toward Feng Yuan. Seeing the appearance of this sky-blue nine-tailed fox, Feng Yuan exclaimed in surprise,
"Data Spirit Fox?"
Its paw lightly touched the water surface, and the entire space seemed to press a pause button. The small boat stopped in place, and even the surging waves were frozen in place.
Observing this time-stopped like scene, Feng Yuan didn’t find it strange. After all, calling the Data Domain a game space wasn’t inaccurate. Only that the capabilities of the Data Domain far exceed those of a game space.
Looking at the transformed Data Spirit Fox, Feng Yuan curiously asked,
"Are you the Data Spirit Fox from the Special Duty Team? How did you turn out like this? By the way, you’re guarding this place; could it have something special to do with Luo Xiaoxiao?"
He asked many questions in one go, leaving the Data Spirit Fox unsure where to start responding. As a result, the Fox remained silent for a long time before softly making noises. After hearing its narrative, Agunas astonishedly said,
"Is there really such a thing?"
After listening to the story from the Data Spirit Fox, Agunas knew that their guesses were both right and wrong. The beginning of all this was inseparable from Luo Xiaoxiao, but initially, Luo Xiaoxiao considered the start of everything as a wish without actual significance.
The Isle of Wishes, which is the core of this Abnormal Space, is also the starting point of all this, as well as its original root.
Just like people make wishes upon seeing meteors in the sky, Luo Xiaoxiao initially didn’t know all this would evolve into such a massive disaster.
Could she return to my side if she could go to the Isle of Wishes...
That was a strong desire within Luo Xiaoxiao’s heart. When she encountered matters related to wishing, she’d repeat quietly. Though she knew it was impossible, this perhaps was one of the beliefs supporting her heart,
Yet Luo Xiaoxiao hadn’t expected her unconscious murmur to cause a resonance with the origin of the Abnormal Space, leading to the creation of this unique Abnormal Space,
No one else was controlling the Abnormal Space. Only the naturally chaotic Abnormal Space, despite being influenced by the strong desires within Luo Xiaoxiao’s heart, remained uncontrollable, which led to such a chaotic situation.
"A space capable of realizing wishes? That’s weird..."
Rubbing his chin, Feng Yuan looked at Veronia baffled. This thing had nothing to do with wishing, did it?
