Chapter 40 - Fire-Winged Manticore

Fang Mu had always liked to plan before he did anything.

He was constantly perfecting his identity as a Creation Grandmaster disciple.

This identity was his protective shell.

Once he was valued by the “Scavengers”, he might be able to use his status as a Grandmaster’s disciple as a bridge to trade resources with the “Scavengers”.

In this way, he had subtly become a collaborator of the official organization, the Scavengers.

It also gave him more authority in the organization of Scavengers.

On the Imperial Network, no matter how many good things there were, it was impossible for something like a ghost-type beast to appear.

Every time the terror-level dimensional rift opened, billions of mutated beasts would surge out, it was not something that someone or a single force could solve.

Therefore, most of the ghost-type beasts were in the hands of the official organizations, and the best way to obtain a ghost-type beast was to trade with an official organization.

The identity of a Creation Grandmaster’s disciple was his protective shell; he could use this identity to easily make contact with the various large factions and groups.

When in the official organization, he could put on another protective shell as a Scavenger.

That way, he basically did not have to worry about safety anymore.

Time waited for no one. After thanking He Qing, Fang Mu immediately called a taxi and rushed to the Creation Master Association.

He Qing did not know that his subconscious exclamations and popular science would be the cause of the history of the Scavengers.

On the way to the Creation Master Association, Fang Mu counted his gains.

Any increase was because there were four more vampire newborn corpses than the first which made Fang Mu’s two harvests add up to a total of 101 Crystals of Life, three blood crystals, and 36 poisonous crystals of various kinds.

Tonight, he could complete the deal with Fang Yuan.

Fang Mu could guess that even though he had signed the agreement, Fang Yuan’s heart would still be in his mouth.

After all, if he broke the contract, he would be paying the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce.

It had nothing to do with Fang Yuan.

After he provided the goods tonight, Fang Yuan would definitely be very happy.

As the Creation Master Association was an organization targeted at Creation Masters, it was extremely elegant.

Six attendants stood neatly in the doorway.

Beside each of the six attendants was a huge lion with two pairs of golden wings.

A huge scorpion tail longer than its body coiled under the lion’s butt.

The Fire-Winged Manticore was the standard beast of the Creation Master Association.

At the entrance of the Creation Master Association of every level, there was a huge difference in the level of the Fire-Winged Manticore contracted by the attendant.

For example, because JA City was the provincial capital of Jinghai Province, the Creation Master Association in JA City was a Level two Creation Master Association.

Therefore, all the Fire-Winged Manticores were Platinum-rank.

If they arrived at the headquarters of the Creation Master Association in the capital, the six attendants at the entrance would each contract a Platinum-rank Fire-Winged Manticore with three pairs of wings.

These attendants were experts nurtured by the Creation Master Association.

They were in charge of handling all the miscellaneous matters in the Creation Master Association and protecting the safety of the Creation Masters.

At the same time, they could accept employment from a Creation Master.

If he wanted to hire such an attendant, he first had to undergo the Creation Master level certification in the Creation Master Association.

It would cost a lot of money.

Hiring someone from the Creation Master Association to follow him could maximize the status of a Creation Master.

The Fire-Winged Manticore was one of the few beasts that could fly above the city during peace times. It was very conspicuous.

However, under normal circumstances, only junior Creation Masters would choose to hire attendants who had contracted the Fire-Winged Manticore.

When the strength of a Creation Master reached a high level, they would have subordinates that they could trust.

As the source of resources, the strength of the subordinates of high-level Creation Masters was definitely not bad.

In the world of Beast Tamers, there were too few Creation Masters.

The scarcity of Creation Masters directly prevented more than 95% of Beast Tamers from obtaining resources.

Demand determined status. This was an eternal truth in the world of Beast Tamers.

To be able to become an assistant to a junior Creation Master was the lifelong glory and goal of many people.

From this, it could be seen that those experts were looking for resources to increase their strength.

How he wished he could rely on a Creation Master, even if he might have to pay the price of freedom.

Only Creation Masters were allowed to park their vehicles and ride their beasts within a five-kilometer radius of the Creation Master Association’s entrance.

Therefore, Fang Mu had to walk 5,000 meters to reach the entrance of the Creation Master Association.

Fang Mu saw the six Flame-Winged Manticores from afar and instinctively used his Omniscient Eye to investigate them.

[Beast Name]: Fire-Winged Manticore

[Beast Species]: Insect Beast Species/Manticore Species

[Beast Level]: Platinum (10/10)

[Beast Type]: Fire

[Beast Potential]: Platinum

[Beast Grade]: Perfect

Skills:

[Firetail Chain]: Use its scorpion tail to condense a flexible chain of flames that can continuously extend and bind the target. Every time the chains overlap, an explosion will occur at the intersection.

[Fire Feather Burn]: The wings can turn into blades that carry flowing magma and accurately pierce the target.

[Flame Lion Roar]: Increases the activity of the fire element by roaring and strengthens its fire element attacks. It can also suppress the activity of other elements to a certain extent.

[Broken-Off Tail Ember]: Gather all its fire elemental energy at the scorpion tail and release its energy in the form of a broken-off tail. Burn the target bound by the fire tail chain to ashes.

Exclusive Skills:

[Scorpion Heart]: No fear of pain. Whenever it is injured, its ferocity will increase.

Evolutionary Lines:

1: Honor Manticore, 2: Kite-Shaped Winged Manticore, 3: Giant Manticore.

Fang Mu hadn’t been able to see the specific data of Dark Clouds At Night, the Serial Specie he had observed in the library.

Speaking of which, the Perfect Grade Platinum Fire-Winged Manticore could be said to be the highest-level beast Fang Mu had ever seen with his Omniscient Eye.

Just by looking at the skill, Fang Mu could imagine how shocking and gorgeous the Fire-Winged Manticore would be in battle.

In terms of evolution, it was wanting to evolve into Honor Manticore.

It required more than 80% pure fire elemental energy to induce it.

Fire elemental energy with a purity of more than 80% was the ability of an old Creation Master.

Resources of this level would not be spent on just anyone.

So even at headquarters, there weren’t many who’d contracted Honor Manticore.

As for the Giant manticore, it reversed the priority of the bloodline and introduced the poison attribute into the fire attribute.

That reduced the explosive power of the fire element and belonged to bad evolution.

The Giant Manticore also weakened its ability to use flames and chose to use its potential on its body.

It was said that the giant Manticore could reach nearly thirty meters in length and eight meters in height.

The wings on its back could wrap around a building.

However, its enlarged body meant that every time the Giant Manticore fought, it would inevitably cause great damage to the surrounding environment.

Therefore, the attendants of the Creation Master Association stopped at the stage of the Fire-Winged Manticore and no longer chose to evolve.

While he was observing the Fire-Winged Manticore, Fang Mu had already walked to the door of the Creation Master Association.

An attendant stopped him.
