When the wind blew past his ears, Ge Yan's mouth was immediately filled with wind, and he couldn't even speak if he opened mouth, so he could only shut his mouth. However, for some reason, he felt that his scalp was hurting more and more, and in the end, he couldn't help but turn around to look, and instantly met eyes with two that were round and large like black diamonds.
The other party was looking at him innocently, the wind was fiercely pouring into its mouth, its cat face was more than doubled the size of a balloon, its two sharp teeth had turned from domineering to a retard, and what made him most speechless was that its two front claws had somehow gained the power to miraculously grab onto his hair, and its body flapped up and down, swaying back and forth, and its hind legs occasionally kicked twice in the air as if it was more powerful.
Ge Yan admitted that he had accidentally forgotten about it because he only had two hands left, he could only hold the egg in his embrace. He did not expect that its ability to save itself was so impressive, he was not pleasantly surprised, he only had a stupefied look on his face and almost wanted to ask which acrobatic group it came from.
After a while, Rex finally stopped, the wind that was blowing painfully on his face also stopped, the Shadow Winged Tiger stuck itself onto the back of his head with a squelch. This fellow also understood the principle of climbing along the pole, and actually sat on his neck with its hind legs spread out, looking like it deserved the beating of the wind.
Ge Yan instantly had the illusion that his tongue was taken away by a cat, and immediately brought it down with a darkened face.
The Shadow Winged Tiger hung in his hand, its forelimbs and hind legs curled up together as it blinked its innocent and pure eyes, its large eyes reflecting its figure. Just as it was about to speak, its gaze suddenly noticed the small Jiji below it and it immediately changed its focus.
"Strange." Ge Yan muttered.
Rex, who had taken his actions very seriously, "..."
Ge Yan noticed his gaze and laughed awkwardly: "So this Holy Beast is male, I thought it was female."
Rex was silent for a few seconds, then took the initiative to ask: "Why is it a female?"
"I thought this egg was born from it, but I didn't expect it to be male. Are the Magic Beast giving birth so early now? "It's not that big, but it feels like it's got young teeth. For it to lay an egg this big, I can't help but feel that it's inconceivable." Ge Yan held the egg in his arms, this time, he was not embarrassed at all, and a discordant scene appeared in his mind.
"…" Rex was once again speechless.
"What's wrong?" Ge Yan took note of his reaction.
Rex looked at him deeply for a second, then retracted his gaze: "Nothing."
Ge Yan kept having the feeling that something was amiss with his expression, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
Right at this moment, the Shadow Winged Tiger's attention finally fell on the egg in his embrace. Its eyes immediately lit up, and with a low growl, it pounced towards him excitedly, and in one pounce, Ge Yan almost fell backwards along with the egg. Even though the Shadow Winged Tiger's head was not big, it still had some weight, so he simply placed the egg on the ground.
"Look, Rex, this egg is indeed its child." Ge Yan was also very happy. He squatted down and stroked the Shadow Winged Tiger's soft head, and the latter squinted her eyes with an expression of enjoyment.
Hearing him unconsciously call out his name, Rex's sword-like eyebrows slightly raised, but he did not say anything.
"Crap." Ge Yan suddenly jumped up, "That person called Frank, he knows that the Shadow Winged Tiger is in our hands, will he tell other people about this news?"
"Yes." Rex did not pause at all, it was obvious that he had already known about this outcome when Frank had escaped.
Ge Yan originally wanted to say a few words, but seeing that he did not seem to be worried at all, even though he had always been this cold and expressionless, his heart had also calmed down.
"We've already gotten the Holy Beast. Do we want to leave the forest now, or wait?"
"We can't wait. Regiment Commander Locke should already know that the Holy Beast has fallen into the hands of another, and will very likely seal the entrance to the Tasha Forest."
"With just Black Wolf Mercenary Regiment? Isn't he afraid of offending people? "
"Plus a crow, so of course I'm not afraid."
"But aren't they hostile?"
Rex knew that his way of thinking would sometimes be very naive, so he was not surprised at all. He explained: "As long as there are benefits, no matter how hostile the forces are, they will be like grasshoppers on a string."
"Then what should we do now?" Staying here was waiting for their deaths, going out would also be their death, there was clearly no way to retreat, Ge Yan was a little anxious when he thought of this, even if he was not clever, he knew that their current situation did not allow them to meet the Regiment Commander Locke.
Rex's gaze fell on his face, but he did not speak. As he felt more and more uncomfortable, he suddenly shifted his gaze away, landing on the Shadow Winged Tiger who was hugging the egg and looking completely carefree. He suddenly pointed at it and said, "Try taming it."
Ge Yan had a silly look on his face as he asked, "How do I test this?"
"Summon your magic power and try to communicate with it. If it accepts your magic power, you will know what to do."
Ge Yan suddenly hesitated.
"Why?"
"Uh, how do I summon out magic power?" After Ge Yan finished speaking, he felt extremely awkward, because it sounded like a very basic thing.
Rex, "..."
Seeing him not speak, Ge Yan also knew that this question was very foolish, and explained: "You know that I came from another world as well. The world that I lived in before did not have such a thing, and it was just a world of ordinary people.
"Close your eyes and feel if there is a warm current in your body. Focus on this warm current and have it gather in your palm, then transfer to the Shadow Winged Tiger."
Ge Yan was stunned for a moment and immediately followed his instructions. He thought that it would not be possible to feel it so quickly, but to his surprise, this process was not difficult at all, it should be due to his body's memory instincts, and although Jimmy's soul had disappeared, his body had actually underwent many years of practice. When he channeled this demonic energy into the Shadow Winged Tiger's body, it did not resist, but instead very docilely narrowed its eyes.
When Ge Yan withdrew his magic power, he could faintly feel an indescribable connection between him and the Shadow Winged Tiger. He seemed to be able to feel the feelings of the Shadow Winged Tiger, be it happiness, anger, sadness, every single one of them seemed to be extremely clear.
"What's going on? It's like I've made a contract with it. " He was clearly just doing what he felt.
"It's an equality contract. If both sides are willing, and the Contractor does not have any thoughts of enslaving Contract Magic Beast, the rules will automatically help you establish an equality contract." Rex looked at him, a profound look flashed past his eyes.
"And if not willingly?" Ge Yan asked.
"Unless the Contractor's spirit is higher than the Magic Beast, he will suffer a backlash, the contract also has a master and servant contract, the Soul Contract, the latter is a shared life, if one party dies, the other party will suffer a backlash, they can only contract a single Magic Beast." There were also some unequal contracts, which were not beneficial to the Magic Beast in the contracts, but there was no need to mention it.
Ge Yan nodded his head, then suddenly froze: "No, isn't Shadow Winged Tiger your Holy Beast, how did it become my Contract Magic Beast, shouldn't you do it yourself, can you remove it this way?"
"Other than master and servant contracts and other unequal contracts, neither equality contracts nor Soul Contract s are allowed." Rex's expression did not change.
Ge Yan was dumbstruck, so was this considered stealing the opportunity from the Son of Fate? He clearly knew that the Equality Contract could not be dissolved, but why did he let him try? Could it be that he did not care about a Holy Beast? Maybe he thought it was a master-servant contract, but he knew he didn't know anything, so how could he make him do something so risky?
"You can store your Contract Magic Beast in your space of consciousness now." Rex seemed to not notice the conflict on his face and continued to guide him.
"What's in the space of consciousness?"
"It can also be called Spiritual Space. Only the Magic Beast under the Soul Contract can enter, and concentrate."
Ge Yan tried it again, and the Shadow Winged Tiger that was curious about him suddenly disappeared. The Spiritual Force then appeared again, and it thought that Ge Yan was playing with it, and happily grabbed onto his leg, wanting to try again. Ge Yan then put it back into his space of consciousness, after a few tries, he became excited, and finally understood the reason why Rex allowed it to contract with him. No wonder he was not anxious at all, there was actually such a mystical space.
"It's a pity that this egg can't contract right now. Otherwise, it could be stored in the Space of Consciousness."
What he did not know was that Rex actually still had other things that he did not say, because not everyone could have their own space of consciousness. Even if it was Rex himself, he did not have any sort of space of consciousness because only one kind of person in this world could have that kind of ability.
After settling the problem with the Shadow Winged Tiger, Rex did not plan to stay in the Tasha Forest, and the two immediately set off.
There were indeed twenty or so people guarding the entrance of the Tasha Forest of Black Wolf and Crow. Anyone who wanted to leave this place would have to accept their scrutiny, and some people were unwilling to offend them, so they might as well compromise, but there were also some people who were very dissatisfied with the result, believing that they would not be afraid of the two Mercenary Regiment at all. This caused quite a few adventurers to agree with them, and so the two sides clashed.
When Rex and Ge Yan arrived, the two had just finished a round of quarreling, and the atmosphere was slightly tense, as though a bomb that would ignite at any moment, the situation was rather grim.
