Ch 42: A Treasure Trove
A long line had already formed at the entrance of Nanye City, with the guard Beastmen registering the identities of the visiting Beastmen one by one.
There is also writing in the Beast World Continent, but only those in special positions, nobles, and high-level members of large tribes can master it.
Hearing Zhi Le’s introduction, Si Shuo whispered to her three males, “Starting today, we will each study Pinyin for half a Beast Month every morning and evening.”
“This way, when you are out, we can communicate through Pinyin.”
Ji Liang and Xu Chi were confused, but this did not prevent them from cooperating with their Little Female, nodding without thinking.
Zhile held Si Shuo’s hand, never getting enough of her. From the moment they met, his eyes had not been willing to leave her, “Okay, we’ll listen to you.”
In fact, what he wanted to say more was that he would not leave her side in the future, but things were unpredictable, and no one could guarantee that they could really be together all the time.
The line moved slowly, and Nanye City’s review was even stricter during this special period.
“Zhile, what information are they registering? What about Xu Chi?” Si Shuo suddenly thought of this question and looked at Xu Chi worriedly, “Will they record the beast form? Can we lie about it?”
Zhile raised his eyebrows and looked at Xu Chi, asking silently. Was the beast form of this future companion brother not presentable?
“Yes, Nanye City has a Profile Stone. When we walk past it, the Profile Stone can show our beast form to prevent some heinous Rogue Beastmen from sneaking in.”
Xu Chi looked at Si Shuo, his eyes dyed with the warm color of the sky, “I’m fine. It’s a good opportunity for you to see what kind of Beastman I am.”
The feeling of scratching her heart and lungs came again. Si Shuo really wanted to cut in line and expose his disguise in minutes!
Chu Man and her beast husbands also rushed over. She glanced at Si Shuo expressionlessly and directly led her people to register and enter through the small gate.
Zhile followed Si Shuo’s gaze and explained, “That’s a special passage set up for the Holy Ladies.”
Speaking of this, he chuckled and said, “Nanye City is very big. There is a statue of the Beast God here. On the first and fifteenth of every Beast Month, the High Priest in the city will bestow blessings on the females on behalf of the Beast God.
Each female only has one chance in her beast life. It just so happens that the day after tomorrow is the fifteenth, so Kitten should also go to the platform to receive the blessing.”
Si Shuo knew about this from the Original Owner’s memories. The physical condition and fertility of the females who received the blessing would improve to varying degrees, and the lucky ones could even receive the blessing of the Beast God, obtain an ability, and become Holy Ladies sought after by Beastmen!
Si Shuo couldn’t help but ask the system, “System, can I receive the Beast God’s blessing and become a Holy Lady?”
System: Host, yes, your fertility is so strong, it far exceeds the level of a Holy Lady, so you will naturally be favored by the Beast God and be blessed to become a Holy Lady.
Si Shuo didn’t really like high-profile people, but what she was concerned about was another question, “System, if I become a Holy Lady, will I also get an ability?”
System: Host, theoretically, as long as the ability bestowed by the Beast God does not duplicate the ability you have awakened, it is possible.
Si Shuo’s eyes lit up slightly. She shook Zhi Le’s arm, “Zhile, I heard that the Beast God is especially good and grants every request of the Holy Ladies, is that right?”
Zhile nodded with a smile, “Yes, like obtaining an ability, and the Holy Ladies’ wishes to the Beast God after they become pregnant with cubs, are very effective.”
Si Shuo pursed her lips and pondered with a slight turn of her eyes. If she was really selected as a Holy Lady, what ability should she ask the Beast God for?
She looked at this and that, and had a few options in her heart.
But in the eyes of the males, it became that their Little Female was so envious of others.
The Little Female was beautiful and obedient, smart and sensible, but her fate was not good. Her body was weak and her fertility was low. He wondered if the Beast God could open his eyes and let her have one or two cubs in her beast life.
After eating a meal outside the city and taking an afternoon nap, they finally stepped into the city gate at dusk.
Zhile and Ji Liang’s information was registered quickly, and the beast forms left on the Profile Stone were the appearances of their transformations.
◈◈◈
Si Shuo then stood in front of the Profile Stone, looking at the blue-eyed, white-haired cat with a fluffy tail, and was charmed by her own cuteness!
She tilted her head, stuck out her tongue, and wiggled her ears, wishing she could move the Profile Stone back home. Why couldn’t females transform?
However, she also noticed that her unusually fluffy tail was actually nine tails gathered together.
The three males also looked at her inside and outside the Profile Stone with gentle and fiery eyes. Their own female was cute no matter how they looked at her, and they really wanted to put her in their arms…
When it was Xu Chi’s turn, Si Shuo clenched her fists, staring closely at the Profile Stone, and many guesses appeared in her mind. But when she saw a tall, strong, exceptionally beautiful, and aloof deer appear on it, she was stunned for a moment.
The Beast World Continent was really magical. The herbivorous and docile deer in her world were exceptionally violent here.
Although Xu Chi was good to her and was aloof and noble, his combat strength was not just for show. It was elevated in one fight after another with Savage Beasts.
After entering the city, Si Shuo looked around, and not feeling at ease, she even asked Xu Chi to set up a protective barrier to isolate others’ sight and hearing.
She grabbed Xu Chi’s hand and asked curiously, “Xu Chi, why?”
How could he be a deer? Where were his wings? He was afraid of others knowing his beast form before, so why was he not afraid of the Profile Stone now?
Ji Liang smiled and pinched Si Shuo’s face, “Little Shuo Shuo, have I ever told you about the mysterious Antlered Deer with wings?”
Si Shuo was stunned for a moment and looked at Xu Chi. Zhi Le was also very surprised. It was actually an Antlered Deer!
Xu Chi hooked his lips and nodded, “Yes, I am an Antlered Deer. In front of the Profile Stone, I used the shielding effect of the Pocket Dimension to hide my wings.
Our Antlered Deer clan lives on an upside-down floating mountain in the Beast World Continent, and rarely interacts with people from the outside world, so we seem a bit mysterious.
We are one of the few non-bird clans with wings, and the crystal cores in our bodies can be refined into Pocket Dimensions, and…”
Ji Liang raised his eyebrows and continued, “If I’m not mistaken, there is another reason for the Antlered Deer to suffer a murderous disaster, and that is that after your heads are cut off, you can sew on the heads of other beast forms.
Many Beastmen like to capture Antlered Deer, and when their own lives are in danger, they attach their heads to the Antlered Deer’s body!
Your natural cultivation speed is faster than others, and it is also the key for some Beastmen with poor aptitudes to want to defy fate, right?”
Xu Chi hummed, his eyebrows were clear and cold, “Yes, so the number of Beastmen in our Antlered Deer clan is getting smaller and smaller. Before, we even suffered the disaster of extermination, and many clansmen left their homes to seek survival.”
Si Shuo did not expect the answer to be like this. The Antlered Deer had the aptitude and ability that others envied, but they were also a treasure trove, becoming a walking opportunity in the eyes of many Beastmen.
She pursed her lips and squeezed Xu Chi’s hand hard, and said with a smile, “Xu Chi, we will protect you in the future, and help you hide your identity together.”
There was no way, the existence of the Antlered Deer was too heaven-defying. Even if his combat strength was stronger in the future, he could not transform into a beast form openly.
They could not afford even a trace of negligence!
Xu Chi touched her head, “It’s good that you are not afraid of me causing trouble.”
It’s an Antlered Deer! Haha…
