Chapter 509: Chapter 503: Captain Greenox
In Flowery Kingdom, one of the six extremes of the Blue Star nation, the existence of Immortals is not apparent, but it is unexpected that the country founded by the Ghosts, Savage Wasteland, possesses strength comparable to or even surpassing Flowery Kingdom. No wonder they could establish a nation in a land full of Beasts!
The only thing that confused David Jones was that the Savage Wasteland, with such power, was unknown and unheard of in the Flowery Kingdom.
“Gluttonous Beast, search the database for information about the Savage Wasteland and the Ghosts!” commanded David Jones.
“Roar!” (No problem!)
“The Ghosts are recorded in Pets Taming Customs as a special kind of human with intelligence and the ability to use physical strength. They were already extinct during the Ancient Age.
However, it is mentioned in the Strange Tales that in the Middle Ages, a strong Ghost named Blackbutcher invaded Zeus seeking to secretly learn martial arts, but was caught and beheaded.”
“As for the Savage Wasteland, there has never been a country of that name in Flowery Kingdom from the ancient times to the present. The only name that comes close is a kingdom calling itself Abyss, established by the Demon Dragon, which is obviously unrelated to the Ghosts…”
Usually, the Gluttonous Beast enjoys downloading Beast information on the Flowery Kingdom’s network besides cultivating.
It can infiltrate some lower-level Beast websites with its powerful computing abilities, forcibly downloading information. It avoids invading highly protected and top-secret information. Thus, the Gluttonous Beast can be considered a living encyclopedia.
The fact that even the Gluttonous Beast doesn’t have information on the Savage Wasteland indicates that either this country is completely isolated or the information has been blocked by the East Hua Country Beast Trainer Association!
David Jones hopes for the second possibility, otherwise, finding his way back to Flowery Kingdom would be difficult!
Blackmap was looking at the lost David Jones, feeling anxious for fear of angering the dignitary before him due to insufficient hospitality.
“Sir, recently the area around Penance Village has been restless at night. As it’s getting dark, would you like to rest here for the night?” Blackmap carefully suggested.
Last night, a thunderous roar came from Penance Mountain, which probably indicated the appearance of some extraordinary Beast or treasure. He suspected that the esteemed guest before him had come for this reason.
With this thought, the flame of greed disappeared from Blackmap’s eyes in an instant.
Penance Village was just a small border village, and whatever treasure had appeared in the mountains was not something these weak villagers could covet!
Wen Yan glanced at Blackmap and nodded.
The nights in the Savage Wasteland are extremely dangerous, as they are a time for many powerful Beasts to come hunting. Even with the protection of Lolo, David Jones didn’t want to take risks unnecessarily.
To say nothing of his curiosity about the manner by which Penance Village’s Guardian Dragon God was protecting the villagers!
“Dad’s back!”
At this moment, the sleepy red-haired child at the entrance of the village cheered excitedly.
David looked in the direction of the sound, and saw the rosy evening glow shining on the horizon. More than twenty burly and strong men were carrying a dozen gigantic Beasts, walking slowly.
In front of these men, a leader with a uniquely long Aries horn on his forehead, and a well-muscled body emitting a bronze glow, held a hunting bow, observing the surroundings with sharp and cautious eyes.
Upon hearing the arrival of the hunting team, the village houses began to open their doors one after another.
A group of Ghost women whose clothes barely covered their essential body parts, rushed towards the village entrance with knives, taking the Beasts from the men and skillfully processing the skin, flesh, and fat of the Beasts.
The men, on the other hand, sat on the ground, engaged in small talk and, in the meantime, turned the bones of the Beasts into specialized hunting weapons.
Children who had dispersed earlier now returned to the village well, watching the Ghost women handle the Beasts with hunger in their eyes.
Seeing this, some Ghost women, whose hands had touched the Beast blood that could be considered excellent material for refining the body, licked their hands clean, then took a small piece of Beast meat the size of a thumb and fed it to the child, gesturing for them to move further away.
This busy scene aroused a hint of curiosity in David’s eyes.
It was unlikely for him to see such a barbaric yet warm and peculiar way of life in Flowery Kingdom.
Seeing David Jones’s interest, village chief Blackmap stood up, making a respectful gesture.
“Cherry Leigh, did someone come to the village?”
Greenox, who was sitting on a rock and observing the unusual and barely visible shallow footprints at the entrance of the village, abruptly asked.
“I don’t know!” Cherry Leigh, who had overslept, shook her head.
“There was one, a hornless Healer!” said Whitehelm, who had just eaten a piece of Beast meat: “He also knows ice magic. My shot arrow was directly frozen into a block of ice!”
“Hornless? Healer!”
Greenox’s pupils shrank, and as if sensing something, he looked towards the open door of the chief’s house, immediately noticing the graceful young man who gave him a sense of danger and had an air of nobility.
“Dangerous, not an opponent!”
Greenox, who had experienced life and death struggles, immediately realized the strength of David Jones. That seemingly frail wrist must be hiding a force that would strike terror in his heart!
“Huh, not bad perception, you actually detected the presence of Rainbow and Gluttonous Beast!” David Jones looked deeply at this tense, apparently-danger-foreshadowing man.
“This is the leader of our Penance Village hunting team, Greenox,” Blackmap introduced.
Greenox bowed slightly, lowering his horn to David Jones’ chest to express his respect.
“Greetings, esteemed guest!”
At the sight of their leader’s actions, a sense of disbelief crossed the faces of his teammates in the background.
“If you have any questions, you can ask Greenox. He has been to Night County when he was young and has the broadest knowledge in the village. He is also familiar with the distribution of Beasts around Penance Mountain,” said village chief Blackmap.
Hearing this, David Jones became intrigued.
The cities of Savage Wasteland are classified into nations, prefectures, counties, cities, and villages. Those who can visit Night County must have considerable strength.
Name: Greenox
Type: Wood
Lineage Concentration: Ghost Prince (Commander)
Strength Level: Class IV upper-level (Injured, in perfect condition would be Class V lower-level.)
“A wounded Class V Ghost Prince with such strength to act as a hunting team captain in a small border village!” David Jones pondered to himself.
“Do you know where the nearest prefecture city is?” asked David Jones.
Greenox glanced at him with doubt, but still said respectfully, “Heading north from Penance Village for more than a thousand kilometers, you will reach Spring Mansion, one of the thirteen mansions of Umbral. There are many strong people in the mansion. According to the rumors, the Master of Spring Mansion has Class VII Ghost Emperor Peak strength.”
David Jones nodded slightly.
Generally, top-secret news flows among the upper classes. Ghost Emperors are quite prominent people in the Savage Wasteland, and perhaps he can find an opportunity to learn about Flowery Kingdom from the Master of Spring Mansion..
