Chapter 2203 The Variety Of Chimeric Beasts
Ziran's expeditions and exploration experience was being useful for everyone now, as he could provide important insights on things like this.
"You have?" Lin Mu asked.
"Indeed." Ziran nodded. "The way the Death Qi is moving and forming boundaries... it is almost like a Herding Array." He revealed.
"Herding Array?" Daoist Chu and Lin Mu both knew what it was. "Like the ones used to herd tamed beasts?" they asked.
"Yes just like those." Ziran confirmed. "I've seen these in some sects where they raise beasts for their materials and resources. There these are used to make sure the beasts are only in the areas they need to be in.
Or in case the beasts need to be regularly moved around, they are used too. They are helpful since one doesn't need to tame every beast.
They can simply used this array to handle the weaker beasts as they would be intimidated by the power of the array." He explained.
"Hmm... Now that we think of it, the Chimeric Beasts were waiting patiently until the boundary disappeared. And once it was gone, they charged at us." Crown Prince Feng Shun thought over it.
"Yes... they only became stimulated later. And even in the other locations that we saw them, they were waiting until the boundary was gone." Crown Princess Shang was in agreement.
The third insect chimeric beast was a strange maggot that had three tails. The tails belonged to an Earwig. A foul smelling liquid also dropped down from the tips of the tails, possibly being corrosive in nature. Other than the tails, the maggot also had multiple pairs of compound eyes, that surrounded its mouth completely.
It had the best vision among them all and could spot a foe approaching from any angle, whether it be from behind, front, sky or the earth.
The fifth and sixth chimeric beasts they had seen were a bit more rare. The fifth looked like a mix of a toad and some kind of a plant. It had multiple vines growing out of its body, and even its tongue was a vine of some kind, with a flower on its tip.
But this was no normal flower and had hundreds of sharp teeth on it, easily capable of devouring an entire cow in one go. Thankfully this toad chimeric beast seemed to be all gatherer around the few bodies of water that were preset in the Spatial Plane.
The sixth Chimeric beast was a bit more 'normal' compared to most and actually looked very similar to another well registered beast: The Griffin!
It had the body of a lion with the head and wings of an eagle. But it became a Chimera due to the strange combination of feathers that looked scaly on one side, metallic on the other and normal on the back. Its beak was also rather big, having jagged teeth poking out from its sides, preventing it from fully closing.
The Seventh Chimeric Beast was something Lin Mu had seen before in the memories of Afternoon Pine and Ocean Raker.
It was the large stick bug that had been killed by Hall Master Fei with Ocean Raker.
'So there were more of them still left.' Lin Mu thought to himself.
Finally the Eighth Chimeric Beast was also something Lin Mu had seen before. It was the beast that had led to the end of Elder Zen and Hall Master Fei.
