Master of Monster Synthesis-Chapter 258 - 173: Old Era Powerhouse (Extra)

Looking again at the dazed Mo Xin City warriors on the city wall, Rein Jia’er shook his head, retrieved his beast cultivations, and headed directly to the transmission room in Mo Xin City.

By the time the three principals realized what was happening and hastily rushed to the transmission room, Rein Jia’er had already left.

"Sigh, such a pity. It’s just that my granddaughter has no luck!"

"Ah, you old codger, so you’ve been scheming this all along."

"What, is there a problem?"

"Hmph, I have a granddaughter too, and she’s even prettier than yours."

"What did you say? My granddaughter isn’t prettier than yours? Are you blind?"

"Haha, who’s blind isn’t certain..."

"Enough, enough, stop arguing. What if Rein Jia’er doesn’t like that type anyway?"

"Hmm, that’s possible. But it’s fine; I also have a grandson..."

"..."

...

Back in West City, the Space Gate in the underground fault was still inactive.

To ensure safety, Rein Jia’er had people bring over a fireworks explosion simulator to prevent a Year Beast rebellion.

After all, the ancient myths about Year Beasts might not be accurate.

A moment later, when he returned home, his parents had already gone to bed.

In the room, Rein Jia’er opened the Space Gate and released half of the Year Beast’s corpse.

Rubbing his chin thoughtfully, he withdrew the Year Beast back into the System Space and headed to the villa rooftop.

Slicing off a large chunk of Year Beast meat, Rein Jia’er couldn’t help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

"Year Beast meat—haven’t tasted it in two lifetimes!"

Time to cook!

Wait a second... How do you even cook Year Beast meat?

No recipe!

Rein Jia’er sighed heavily at the sky.

Forget it—if it exists, it can be grilled! Barbecue it is!

...

In no time, Rein Jia’er had grilled enough to fill an entire table. He released Big Big Wolf and his "wife," Brother Monkey, Red Tai Lang, and Zhi Yin.

Eating alone is no fun.

The other monsters were too massive, so he let them eat raw instead.

"Dear master, no beer," Big Big Wolf remarked.

Rein Jia’er’s face darkened—this guy sure had high standards.

Before he could respond, Red Tai Lang smacked Big Big Wolf against the wall with a frying pan.

"Eat when you’re given food. So much nonsense—you deserve a beating!"

Red Tai Lang had dropped her usual "gentle and virtuous" persona, her wolfish face turning menacing.

"Sorry, wife, I was wrong."

Big Big Wolf, now a shapeless mess on the wall, somehow still had an intact mouth.

Meanwhile, Zhi Yin clung to Rein Jia’er’s chest, her face pale.

"Master, Zhi Yin is so scared..."

Rein Jia’er patted Zhi Yin’s shoulder. "Oh, oh, don’t be scared, don’t be scared. You absolutely can’t copy her, though."

"Why not?"

"Because doing that will make me beat you to death."

Zhi Yin: "..."

Ignoring Zhi Yin’s pursed lips, Rein Jia’er started devouring the skewers.

As the first bite of roasted meat tantalized his taste buds, Rein Jia’er distinctly felt his Star Power inexplicably begin to boil within his body. A tingling sensation surged through his skin and rapidly concentrated at the top of his scalp.

"Ah～"

The extreme comfort made Rein Jia’er involuntarily close his eyes and tilt his head back with a strange sound.

"Master, you’re so awful..."

Upon hearing the sound, Zhi Yin’s face flushed red as she buried her head in Rein Jia’er’s chest, softly tapping him with her little hand.

"Master, do you want me to help you..."

Before Zhi Yin could finish her sentence, Rein Jia’er casually tossed her into the pool downstairs, his lips curling.

"I was just starting to feel it—you had to ruin the vibe, you brat."

He raised his communicator and dialed a video call to Long Xia.

"Long Xia, are you asleep?"

"Not yet, what’s up?"

"Go to Mo Xin City tomorrow to purchase Year Beast corpses. Buy as many as you can."

Long Xia yawned. "Year Beast? What’s that?"

"The monster that invaded Mo Xin City tonight."

"What?! Mo Xin City had monsters..."

"Relax, it’s been taken care of."

"Alright, I’ll start purchasing the Year Beast corpses tomorrow morning. What do you need them for?"

"Once you’ve acquired them, we’ll discuss further."

"Okay..."

Ending the call, Rein Jia’er looked at the skewers on the table and smirked.

According to myths, the Year Beast was an exceptionally ferocious creature.

But now he realized the Year Beast was far more than just ferocious.

Although the energy contained in Year Beast meat was ordinary, there was a mysterious substance within it that accelerated the absorption of energy by the human body.

For those in the Newborn Realm, this effect might not be highly noticeable.

However, for those in the Vajra Realm, Year Beast meat could speed up the energy absorption process and, naturally, the physical transformation.

The effectiveness of Year Beast meat was comparable to the enhanced Gold Devouring Potion. When combined with the Earth Core Energy Pool, Rein Jia’er could quickly advance to Vajra Six Stars.

If Year Beasts could be domesticated and farmed to mass-produce specialized cultivation potions, it would be possible to foster a large number of powerful warriors in a short time!

Rein Jia’er was confident that if the Federation conducted even rudimentary research on Year Beasts, they’d discover the mysterious substance in the meat.

The appearance of Year Beasts was both a disaster and an opportunity.

He wondered who was responsible for sending these Year Beasts to Earth.

...

Alien Space.

The sky here was gray, without a sun or moon, devoid of day and night—a realm of pure desolation.

The barren land was littered with rusting incubation pods scattered across the desert landscape.

In the underground space, a virtual screen replayed the catastrophe befalling Earth’s human cities.

"Our plan worked."

"Indeed—it was genius to use the alien meteorite to grab humanity’s attention, then secretly construct the Space Gate connecting Earth’s underground to its surface, funneling monsters into the human world."

"Exactly, as long as these Space Gates function, monsters will continue invading the human world endlessly."

"Chaos in the human world will be our chance."

"True, but we can’t be careless. After all, those underground monsters were defeated by Earth’s ancient humans. We must wait for the right moment."

"Relax, just these Year Beasts alone could... Wait, look! What’s happening to the Year Beasts?"

On the virtual screen, a city teetering on destruction suddenly erupted with fireworks, scaring away hordes of Year Beasts in terror. Within moments, the beasts disappeared from the human city.

"Pathetic—frightened off by such frivolous displays! Useless! Useless!"

In the underground space, piercing and enraged screams echoed for a long time.

"Look! That human figured out the monsters’ weakness." fгeewёbnoѵel_cσm

"He won’t get away with this!"

...

Earth, West City.

Three days later.

The Space Gate in the underground fault remained inactive. Just as Yu Shusheng prepared to forcefully destroy the Space Gate, he was stopped by orders from the Federation leadership.

Not only that, the Federation issued directives for city administrators to investigate the other side of the Space Gate and prepare for widespread Year Beast capture.

Yu Shusheng felt helpless about the Federation’s decision.

...

Meanwhile, two prominent figures arrived at Rein Jia’er’s home.

Hua Ping served two cups of hot tea, warmly entertaining the guests: the Beast Cultivation Main City Principal, Qin Long.

"Ha-ha-ha, Principal Qin! So your family name is Qin too. We might have been relatives five hundred years ago..."

Qin Long smiled and nodded. "Young lady, your son is quite impressive."

Hua Ping froze—how long had it been since someone called her "young lady"?

But considering Qin Long’s age, Hua Ping was indeed just a young lady in his eyes.

"Ha-ha, Principal Qin, you have good taste! My son..."

The moment Hua Ping started talking about Rein Jia’er, it seemed she wouldn’t stop anytime soon.

Qin Guofang quickly pulled Hua Ping aside.

"Dear, let’s head to the kitchen to prepare dinner—Principal Qin probably has something important to discuss with our son."

The two elderly parents left, and Qin Long stood up, respectfully pouring the tea for an elderly man seated nearby.

"Elder Long, please have tea."

"Hmm."

The old man, with a wrinkled face and bald head, wore a faded and tattered tank top, his legs crossed as he occasionally fidgeted with the flip-flops on his feet.

Casually accepting the tea from Qin Long, he smiled mischievously, fixing his gaze straight on Rein Jia’er standing before him.

Rein Jia’er showed no signs of impatience, standing upright with a proper posture.

A bald old man, a yellowed tank top, and flip-flops.

Clearly, a formidable expert!

Without any protagonist’s aura, it was better not to offend this old man.

Who knew whether this old man might suddenly say, "Come on, hit me! Kill me!"

Seeing Rein Jia’er lost in thought, Qin Long coughed twice.

"Rein Jia’er, this is Elder Long, a peerless expert from the Old Era," he reminded.

Hearing this, Rein Jia’er’s heart skipped a beat.

A strong figure from the Old Era?

How could it be...
