C518 Divine Beast Vermillion Bird
C518 Divine Beast Vermillion Bird
"That's right. I have long disliked those old bastards. Tell me, when are we going to attack?" Jin Tai's blood was boiling. He wished he could lead his troops and attack Yanjing now.
"This matter needs to be considered carefully. I have consumed too much of my inner energy. I can't go to war with the Elders Guild yet."
"However, I only need a month to fully recover. It won't be too late to settle the score with them then!"
Loong Wei did not suffer any injuries this time. It was just that he had used up too much of his inner energy. As long as he recuperated well for a period of time, he would naturally be able to recover.
Jin Tai nodded. After pondering for a moment, he said, "As for the third matter, it has something to do with you. I have found the whereabouts of your birth mother, Hsu Wan."
"What!" Loong Wei's body trembled when he heard this. He did not expect Jin Tai to say such a thing.
Back in the Loong Family of the Dongshan, Loong Wei found out that his mother's name was Hsu Wan, but he only knew one name.
As for where Hsu Wan was from, where she was now, and why she had suddenly disappeared, Loong Wei had no idea.
He did not expect Jin Tai to find out about her. How could Loong Wei not be surprised?
"Quickly tell me, what exactly is going on?" Loong Wei's eyes almost spurted out fire as he hurriedly asked.
Jin Tai frowned and said, "Your mother, Hsu Wan, is from the Shenyinn Aristocratic Family, a member of the Xu Family!"
"As expected..." Loong Wei's face turned stern when he heard this.
He could not find any information about Hsu Wan in the secular world. Loong Wei had suspected that his mother was from the Shenyinn Aristocratic Family a long time ago. Now that he saw it, it was indeed true.
"It seems like I have to make a trip to the Xu Family!" Loong Wei said to himself.
Whether or not he recognized his biological mother was one thing, but Loong Wei had to at least know what his biological mother looked like and what kind of person she was.
"By the way, how is Niu Lu now?" Loong Wei calmed his mind and asked.
Loong Wei had always felt guilty about Niu Lu and Niu Ba.
Niu Ba died to protect him, and Niu Lu was seriously injured by Hong Jianhui. She was still unconscious. Even if Loong Wei killed Hong Jianhui and even killed Zhuge Jie in the future, Niu Ba would not be revived, and Niu Lu might not be able to wake up.
A person's death was like the extinguishing of a lamp. Those who were still alive naturally had to keep looking forward. Now that the current situation was so tragic, Loong Wei couldn't help but feel sad in his heart.
Loong Wei turned around and looked at Lee Hann, who was standing behind him, and reminded him. "Don't mention Niu Ba's matter in front of Niu Lu. I'm afraid that she will be even more agitated and won't wake up."
The bad news of Niu Ba's death must be kept from Niu Lu. At least wait until she wakes up before telling her.
"I know." Lee Hann also had a sorrowful expression.
"Rumble!"
Right at this moment, a loud noise came from the inside of the base. The entire base trembled slightly, as if an earthquake had happened.
"What's going on!?" Everyone turned to look inside the base. No one knew what had happened.
"That direction seems to be the laboratory!" Lee Hann was shocked. Could it be that something had happened to the laboratory?
At this time, a guard on duty outside the laboratory quickly ran over and saluted to everyone. "Report, there is a Godly Beast in the laboratory that is about to be born!"
"Hmm?" Everyone had excited expressions on their faces.
Lei Xianming and Jin Tai had heard about the Divine Beast Revival Plan of the five Western countries, but none of them had seen what the so-called Divine Beast looked like.
Judging from the huge movement just now, it was obvious that the power of this divine beast was absolutely astonishing.
Everyone was already somewhat eager to see the true appearance of this divine beast.
Loong Wei's eyes flickered slightly. These test subjects were all brought back from the Shuang Country's laboratory. There were a total of fifteen petri dishes.
However, most of the test subjects had already died, so they could only be used as research specimens.
The ones that survived until now. The only three Experimentals that had survived until now were the Vermillion Bird, taotie, and the Flying Snake.
Back in Shuang Country, the experimenters told Loong Wei that the larvae of the Flying Snake would need at least half a year to mature. As for the Vermillion Bird and Tao Tie, they would need at least half a year to mature.
Moreover, the survival rate of divine beasts was very low. If one was not careful during the cultivation process, all their efforts would be in vain.
However, it had only been half a month. Which divine beast was going to be born ahead of time?
"Let's go and take a look." Loong Wei led the group to the laboratory.
Cai Die followed closely behind Loong Wei with a confused look on her face. What was a Divine Beast?
Soon, they arrived outside the laboratory. Through the thick and heavy wall, they could feel the earth-shaking movements inside.
If the laboratory wasn't made of extremely high strength composite metal, it would have been shattered into powder long ago.
After opening a series of heavy passcode doors, they finally arrived at the God Beast Laboratory located in the southeast part of the base.
This laboratory was the size of four to five basketball courts, and it was much smaller than the Divine Beast Laboratory in Shuang Country.
In the laboratory stood a dozen or so cylindrical petri dishes. They were filled with translucent viscous liquid, and the liquid was soaked in various kinds of God Beast larvae.
Flood dragon, white tiger, soaring snake, black tortoise...
"Oh my god!" Cai Die cried out in surprise. She widened her eyes and looked at the strange-looking creature in the petri dish. "Is this a divine beast? It looks so cool!"
Even Lei Xianming and Jin Tai, who were used to seeing wind and waves, were shocked. They stared at the young Divine Beasts without blinking their eyes.
Loong Wei looked around. His eyes fell on the petri dish at the corner of the wall.
A giant blood-red bird was resting in the petri dish. The wings of the giant bird were fully grown, and the life force around its body was gushing out. It was even a bit stronger than the Scarlet Flame Qilin from before.
This bird was the legendary divine bird, the Vermillion Bird!
Lei Xianming and Jin Tai looked at each other. They were both shocked. The aura of this Divine Bird was extremely strong. Even if the two of them joined hands, they might not be able to subdue it.
The earth-shattering sound just now must have been caused by this Vermillion Bird.
"Swoosh!" At this moment, the blood red Vermillion Bird in the petri dish suddenly opened its eyes, and two rays of red light instantly burst forth.
That pair of blood red eyes were cold and cruel. There was not the slightest fluctuation of emotion. There was only bloodthirst and desire for slaughter!
The Divine Beast Vermillion Bird had officially awakened.
The so-called Divine Beast Revival Plan was originally to create killing weapons. The divine beasts that were created did not need to have any feelings at all. They only needed to obey orders and kill.
"Chirp!!! The Vermilion Bird flapped its wings and was about to fly up. It cried out in anger.
The sound was sharp and piercing to the ears, as if it was going to pierce through everyone's eardrums.
"Crack crack!" The huge petri dish gradually cracked, and the translucent liquid kept leaking out.
Everyone was shocked, and the terrifying aura of the Vermilion Bird became even more unrestrained as it rushed out.
Waves of scorching heat continuously bombarded everyone's faces.
In the blink of an eye, the temperature in the laboratory instantly soared. Everyone was drenched in sweat, and it was difficult for them to breathe.
"Chirp!!!" The Vermillion Bird let out another roar.
"Boom!" Following the Vermillion Bird's roar, the crystal pillar that was originally filled with the cultivation fluid could no longer withstand this terrifying power and instantly collapsed.
The Vermilion Bird spread its wings and was five meters long. With a whoosh, it flew towards the crowd.
"Dodge!" Lei Xianming and Jin Tai cried out in shock. They hurriedly protected the crowd and kept retreating.
However, only Loong Wei was still standing in the same spot, not moving an inch.
"Huala!" The Vermillion Bird flapped its wings and flew high into the sky. However, there were heavy iron chains tied to its legs. The iron chains were pulled by the Vermillion Bird and were pulled straight in an instant.
"Now is the time!" Loong Wei took the opportunity to leap forward. In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of the Vermillion Bird. With lightning speed, he condensed a ball of inner energy in his palm.
He raised his palm and struck it towards the center of the Vermilion Bird's brows. Almost at the same time, a black mark appeared on the Vermilion Bird's forehead.
Imperial Slave Curse!
No matter what creature it was, once it was planted with the Imperial Slave Curse, it would unconditionally obey the order of the caster, not daring to defy it in the slightest!
Back then, Xuan Tong had used this method to control the Scarlet Flame Qilin.
These artificially cultivated divine beasts were different from the Black Flood Dragon. They had no intelligence to speak of, and Loong Wei was unable to communicate with them. Thus, he could only use the Imperial Slave Curse to intimidate them.
When the curse entered its body, the wild and violent Vermillion Bird instantly howled in pain. Its body, which was flying in the air, gradually fell back, and finally landed in the petri dish.
Only then did Loong Wei heave a sigh of relief.
"Mr Loong, will this big bird bite people?" Cai Die, who was in the crowd, stuck her head out and asked.
The rest of the people were also looking at Loong Wei with puzzled expressions. Although the Vermillion Bird had been subdued by Loong Wei, the terrifying Qi on its body hadn't diminished in the slightest. It was still staring at the crowd fiercely, feeling that it could pounce on them at any time.
"It's fine now. I have already planted the Imperial Slave Curse on it. Without my order, it wouldn't dare to hurt anyone." Loong Wei turned around and said.
Only now did everyone feel relieved. They carefully walked forward and stared at the mysterious giant bird curiously.
Loong Wei looked at the Divine Beast Vermillion Bird from top to bottom, his eyes shining brightly.
The divine bird had a pair of large wings, and its expression was high. It was extraordinary!
