CHAPTER 366 MANY SPIRITUAL BEASTS
When Rocky came back to the beast farm of the headquarters from the tavern, he saw Sheridan was
feeding Verdanim.
"Why did Commander Dunn summon you?" Sheridan asked aimlessly.
"Nothing." Rocky replied, swinging his head.
"Dunn is a sentimental man and has invariably been a straight talker. But he constantly remains
credible to friends," Sheridan grinned.
"Do you perceive him very thoroughly?" Rocky inquired, peeking at Sheridan.
"I've drunk with him a few times, so we are pot companions. He also often goes to the Geisha House
that we have been to. I almost let it slip. Have you ever seen Miss Laney?" Sheridan asked as his mind
lingered over something suddenly with his eyebrows lifting.
"That's right. When you were under the influence of alcohol last time, I sent you to the room of Yasmin.
I sauntered out of the room and appeared to catch her blowing a flute! How do you perceive that?"
Rocky asked in bewilderment after he acknowledged. His mind was still a surging perplexity.
"Miss Laney caught a cold a few days ago, and I went to find out her illness. She asked me if I had a
disciple and spoke profoundly of you. Boy, you undoubtedly have a lot of favorable fortune in love
affairs! Miss Laney could miss you after met you only once. I am green with envy of you!" Sheridan said
jokingly.
"Really?" Rocky lips quirked upwards in a heartwarming smile. He smiled calmly like deep rivers.
"If you aren't in a hurry-scurry, you can go back tomorrow. Drink with me tonight to nurture our
relationship," Sheridan said in a look of exultation.
"I'd rather not. I have a lot of things to work out." Rocky shook his head. Since he had just reached the
first grade of the Heavenly Stage and regained the power of the Holy Dragon Bead, he required some
time to adapt to his current situation. Besides, he had taken off for somewhat a few days, so the spirit-
manipulated beasts he fed must be starving.
"Well. I'll catch you available next time." Sheridan replied in his as sick as a parrot eyes. Then he
altered the topic and inquired, "What about your cultivation of the Mysterious Beast Transformation
Skill?"
"It is more mysterious as a rose leaf than I understood, so I still require some time," Rocky answered
back.
"Of course. I have only reached the third level with over thirty years. With your age, it is pretty good if
you could reach the first level in a few years. Especially if you demand to contact with the spiritual
power of your spirit-manipulated beast, it undoubtedly takes time." Sheridan nodded and proceeded
thoughtfully, "But with your natural endowments, I'm filled with aplomb that you will do better than me.
Don't be overly restless for accomplishment."
"I am apprehensive of that. I'm taking off now!" Rocky replied and wandered to Verdanim. Touching its
neck and mounted it in a dash.
Later on, Verdanim spread its wings and surged high, a speck of gust dust was thrown up. The gusts of
wind blew it into the air in great swirls. They disappeared swiftly.
However, as Rocky faded away on Verdanim, staring in the direction where they had left, Sheridan was
appreciative of a serious dilemma and stated in dumb stricken tone, "Why could he drive Verdanim?
Only the royal spirit manipulator with the dragon spiritual power could drive it. Is he a..."
After reckoning, Rocky had the consciousness that Marin would turn up at the tent in the front
tomorrow, so instead of sending Verdanim back, he took it to his place.
When Verdanim landed, raising clouds of dust, plumes of dust erupted from the surface, giving the air a
musty smell. The three big beasts and a small one came over, screeching at Rocky.
Faced with such a few spirit-manipulated beasts, Verdanim became on the alert, so it thundered like a
burning lumber yard looking up at the sky as if it was displaying its strength. However, except that the
little Ghostly Ice Fox-wolf was petrified as a jack-rabbit that had heard the howl of a wolf, to conceal
behind Uriah, the other three spirit-manipulated beasts remained tranquil, not offering any impression
of weakness.
"Don't be in a blue funk... They are all my spirit-manipulated beasts..." Rocky comforted Verdanim while
touching it lightly.
Verdanim burst out a low croon and rested its big dragon eyes on the Rainbow Glow Unicorn. It All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
seemed that Verdanim had recognized it was a rare spiritual beast so that it swayed its head in a
thunderbolt.
Rocky jumped off Verdanim and walked among the four spirit-manipulated beasts to touch their heads.
"You are bigger now. What have you eaten these days?" Rocky uttered as he weighed the little Ghostly
Ice Fox-wolf in his hands. During only a few days when he had left, it had grown a lot. Since Uriah was
very experienced, with the assistance of Rubygon and the Rainbow Glow Unicorn, he could leave the
little Ghostly Ice Fox-wolf to them. Thus, he was relatively free from getting overwrought.
At the juncture, Uriah suddenly turned back and ran like fire through stubble into Rocky's lab. Then it
held an oval porcelain like a bowl before Rocky.
After a closer glance, Rocky found there was three days' production of the magical saliva like the
condensation of the essence of the miracle liquid.
"Uriah, you perceive how to collect the magical saliva now. Good boy!" Rocky shouted like the hoarse
peals of vultures while dumbstruck.
Uriah immediately broke out two yips, which sounded like it showed off its achievements.
Smelling the fragrance of the magical saliva, the other spirit-manipulated beasts were all eager to eat it,
howling loudly. Even Verdanim was no exception.
Then Rocky poured the magical saliva into the bottle and fed each of them, including the little Ghostly
Ice Fox-wolf, a drop of it.
With that, Rocky went to the den to check on the situation of the Queen Dark Heaven Insect and the
other three Dark Heaven Insects. He found that two three-star Dark Heaven Insects in the first grade
were about to grow to a higher level. Once they reached the second grade, they could give birth to the
Dark Heaven Eggs at the intermediate stage.
Besides, to Rocky's perplexity, after poring over the body of the Queen Dark Heaven Insect, he
discovered that its belly was conspicuously swollen. It appeared to have been pregnant.
Abruptly, the eyes of Rocky smoothed up. He had figured out the two leading causes of the low rate of
hatchability of the eggs. One reason was that the natural deformities of the mother's ovaries; the other
cause was the problem of the eggs themselves. In fact, the two causes were cause and effect, so the
primary cause was the ovaries that bred the eggs.
Since the Queen Dark Heaven Insect was a hermaphrodite, so the process of the ingravidation was
completed in just one body. Even though it had female ovaries, its female hormones were low so that
its ovaries were defective. Therefore, the eggs would be affected when they were bred in the ovaries.
Since the eggs had been affected, when they were given birth to, the proliferation of the larvae of the
Dark Heaven Insects was slowed down. As a result, the larvae couldn't manage to break hull in time.
With the natural defects of the eggs' structure, and the restraint of the environment, the rate of
hatchability of the eggs was exceptionally low.
Thus, the key to the problem was to repair the ovaries of the Queen Dark Heaven Insect so as to
improve the environment of the breed of the eggs.
