Beast Taming Patrol Chapter 1509 - 424: The Storm Has Arrived (2-in-1, Finale Countdown: 27)
Previously on Beast Taming Patrol...
This time, there was no way it would fail!
"(Phone...)" (。ϟ。) "Jie..."
While Qiuqiu was concentrated on the prophecy, Guigui gestured toward the communication device resting by the bed.
Only then did Lin Su snap back to reality, noticing that the device had been ringing relentlessly since he had woken up.
To be more precise, it was this very ringtone that had roused his Blue Star body in the first place.
Though he wasn't currently in the mood to handle Blue Star's affairs, Lin Su still reached out and checked the screen.
Seeing the name "Qin Yunzhang" on the caller ID caused Lin Su’s expression to flicker. He decided to pick up. "Hello? Grandpa Qin."
"Lin Su, I was told you accepted the invitation from the Wei Miao Exotic Beast Area. Will you be arriving today?" Qin Yunzhang inquired, his voice sounding quite cheerful.
"Yes." Lin Su gave a nod.
Qin Yunzhang’s call reminded him of the commitment he had made.
However, considering the gravity of his current situation, he felt the trip to the Wei Miao Exotic Beast Area might need to be delayed by a few days.
He was just about to ask Qin Yunzhang to pass this message to Wei Miao when the old man spoke up again from the other side of the line.
"I should tell you," he whispered with a touch of mystery, "visiting the Wei Miao Exotic Beast Area this time could be a massive opportunity for you."
"What kind of opportunity?" Suppressing his inner restlessness, Lin Su played along and asked.
"You are aware that the Water Spirit Essence race usually only allows one individual to exist at a time, right? If a second one begins to form, it typically merges into the first during its embryonic stage to serve as a source of power."
"But this time, a miracle occurred."
"One month ago, a second Water Spirit Essence manifested in the Wei Miao Exotic Beast Area. Instead of merging with Wei Miao during gestation, it completed its development independently."
"The issue is that it hasn't been able to wake up; it remains in a deep slumber."
"After over a month of investigation and trials, we’ve come up with a theory: we could use a Beast Tamer’s Beast Taming Space to assist with the final gestation of the Water Spirit Essence, helping it to awaken."
"This plan requires a compatible Beast Tamer. Just yesterday, Nannan showed me the footage of your team's match. After seeing it, Wei Miao personally expressed the wish to entrust this kin to you."
"If the experiment is successful, that Water Spirit Essence will become your pet beast."
"What do you think? Isn't that a massive opportunity?"
"It is a most precious Water Spirit Essence!"
On the other end of the call, Qin Yunzhang’s words blared through the dorm room via the speaker.
Back in the room, as Lin Su listened, his expression—along with those of his companions—slowly shifted.
A second Water Spirit Essence?
Appearing one month ago?
That was the exact moment Lin Su had stepped out of the One Life Reincarnation Hall.
This perfect coincidence in timing caused him and the others to fall into deep thought.
Meanwhile, Qiuqiu, who had been entirely focused on the prophecy, finally glimpsed the vision, oblivious to Qin Yunzhang’s voice on the phone.
It saw a boundless ocean with a solitary island sitting in the middle.
Lin Su and the five little ones were standing on that very island.
The scene was nearly identical to Qiuqiu’s earlier prophecy.
The only variation was that in this vision, the group was huddled together, and Lin Su was cradling a cluster of glowing, water-blue light.
Because Qiuqiu had ignored the cost to perform this prophecy, the images were exceptionally vivid.
Within that orb of light, a tiny figure lay curled up.
It had a translucent, water-blue body, and its chubby little hands were clutched tightly around something long.
That is...
That is!!!
As the vision faded, Qiuqiu’s eyes snapped open, and it cried out in shock.
"Mi! (。òωó。)" (I saw Lanlan!)
After its outburst, it noticed the strange tension in the dorm. Seeing the peculiar looks on the faces of Lin Su and the other four, it blinked in confusion.
What was happening?
Between Qin Yunzhang’s explanation and Qiuqiu’s sudden exclamation, Lin Su and the four little ones felt waves of shock crashing through their hearts.
"Grandpa Qin, I have to go, let's talk later." Lin Su ended the call politely and immediately turned to Qiuqiu. "Did Lanlan appear in your prophecy?"
The other four crowded around instantly, their eyes gleaming with intensity.
"Mi... (。òωó。)" (I saw her...)
Since it concerned Lanlan, Qiuqiu didn't dare be careless and quickly described every detail of the images it had just seen.
Because the visions were so similar to the previous ones, Qiuqiu also recounted the true images from its earlier prophecy.
A moment later, after hearing Qiuqiu's account, Lin Su’s face turned pensive.
In that instant, it felt as though everything clicked for him.
Qiuqiu’s first prophecy hadn't been a mistake.
If things went as expected, he and the five little ones would have been cast onto an island in the Endless Sea by spatial turbulence at that exact moment.
That was why Qiuqiu had first seen them on an island.
This was the outcome of being protected by Cai Zun.
Simply reaching the island didn't mean they were out of danger; it could have been the result of an accident.
If the crisis had been handled perfectly, Cai Zun should have been on the island with them.
Qiuqiu hadn't realized this before.
Now, this new vision confirmed the previous one.
They should be on that island right now.
And it appeared there was no immediate threat to their lives.
This realization allowed the anxious Lin Su to finally breathe a small sigh of relief.
However, he was now more preoccupied with a different matter.
The second Water Spirit Essence Qin Yunzhang mentioned, combined with the new figure in Qiuqiu’s latest prophecy.
It was obvious the two were linked.
This could be Lanlan’s chance to return to the world.
Thinking of this, Lin Su took a deep breath and looked toward the five little ones.
"I’ve changed my mind; I won't be heading back yet."
"We are going to the Wei Miao Exotic Beast Area right now."
"I need to see that dormant Water Spirit Essence Grandpa Qin talked about with my own eyes."
"It is definitely connected to Lanlan!"
The five little ones nodded their heads in unison.
At this moment, the troubles of Shenwu had become a secondary concern.
Lin Su gathered his things quickly and hurried out of the research center with the five little ones in tow.
On their way out, they ran into Qin Nan, who was carrying a cup of coffee.
"Huh? Where are you all rushing off to?" Seeing Lin Su in such a hurry, Qin Nan couldn't help but ask.
"To the Wei Miao Exotic Beast Area," Lin Su replied without stopping, though he paused for a split second to add, "Sister Nan, I’ve reached the eighth rank."
"Huh?" Qin Nan’s hand gave a jerk, and coffee splashed onto her sleeve, though she didn't even feel it.
That overwhelming aura was definitely far beyond the Lord level.
An Emperor-level pet beast!
An eighth-rank Beast Taming Space!
An Epic-level Beast Tamer!
After a moment of stunned silence, a loud "Whoa!" echoed through the research center.
It felt as if the entire building shook from the sound.
