Chapter 691: Beast Tamer
There is no doubt that both the redefinition of time by the Soul Arrester and the power of fate mastered by Warrent have caused great trouble to Zhang Cheng.
Because these two points are not strictly speaking, they are not areas that he is good at, and they can neither be verified from a certain side, nor can they be forcibly understood by applying some ready-made theories, so after hesitating for a few hours, he resolutely decided to put this matter aside for now.
Anyway, there are still three months left, and he can think about it slowly, maybe he can go to other worlds to find the answers he needs.
The most important thing right now is to go to the Atlantic Ocean and salvage the key to the Golden City.
Thinking of this, Zhang Cheng put away the ancient parchment books spread out on the table, put them on the shelf, pushed open the door and walked out of the study on the second floor.
Just as he was about to return to the hall on the first floor and enjoy the breakfast prepared by the invisible servant, he suddenly pretended to be with Elizabeth, who had just left the bedroom.
"Ahh
"I'm sorry, I've been in a bit of trouble lately, and I've been in the study since I came back last night, so it's not surprising that you didn't hear any movement. Zhang Cheng explained, while supporting his girlfriend, raised his hand to release a faint cloud of holy light energy, and in the blink of an eye, the red nose was restored to its original state.
Feeling the soreness in her nose disappearing, Elizabeth raised her head and asked in a very curious tone, "What's the trouble?"
"No, some things are more dangerous the more you know, and I don't want you to be exposed. Okay, don't ask so much, let's go to breakfast together, and by the way, tell us about your recent campus life. Zhang Cheng decisively diverted the topic, hugged the girl's waist and carried the other party down the stairs, enjoying the temporary peace and warmth of the moment.
"Ha! Campus life is not as interesting as you think! But some time ago, a rich handsome guy came, which made a lot of little Bichi spring hearts sprout, and some people even offered a reward, and the first girl or boy to take him could get 800 dollars in cash. But alas, so far no one has succeeded. Also, I noticed that he seemed to be interested in me. Elizabeth winked playfully.
Zhang Cheng obviously knew that the girl was deliberately teasing herself, and laughed and teased: "What about you? Did you give him a response?"
"How is that possible! That guy is just a rich playboy, how can he compare to you. My dear, I think you have an obligation to reward me for your loyalty. As she spoke, Elizabeth pounced like an octopus.
The next thing is naturally to enjoy sports that men and women like and are good for their physical and mental health.
After taking a shower after exercising, the two sat down at the dining table refreshed and ate a steaming breakfast.
Elizabeth skillfully picked up an omelette and took a bite, and said without raising her head: "Oh, by the way, a woman named Maggie came to you yesterday evening, and she said that she had something very important to talk to you face-to-face. ”
"Maggie?" Zhang Cheng's eyes flashed with a hint of discoloration.
"That's right, I don't think she's lying, you'd better go yourself. Elizabeth quickly swallowed the food in her mouth, showing her reasonable side.
Although she is still very young, due to the awakening of the witch's bloodline, instead of being ignorant and stupid like most American teenagers, she has incredible insight and can judge the relationship between the two at a glance, but she is smart and does not break it.
"Okay, I see, thanks. Also, you don't have to worry about Maggie, if one day I need to choose between her and you, I will not hesitate to choose you. With that, Zhang Cheng finished eating the food on the plate at a very fast speed, got up and changed into new clothes and left the villa, ending this slightly awkward conversation.
However, he obviously didn't expect that as soon as he walked on his front foot, the black unknown creature with the shape of a cat brought back from the Shard World jumped on the table and proudly showed off in English: "Well, my suggestion is good, right?"
"Hey, hey, Cody is the best, but I have a question, how do you know that in his mind, I'm number one?" Elizabeth wiped the crumbs from the corners of her mouth, a puzzled look on her face.
"It's not easy! By attitude! Don't you have noticed yet? Among so many people of the opposite sex, he will only relax his guard a little when he faces you, and at the same time produce a great deal of pleasure. Remember, take advantage of this, as long as it's not too much, and he'll do everything you want. The movements of the unidentified creature imitator cat, known as Cody, gracefully picked up a bottle of jam and licked it, and his eyes revealed unparalleled enjoyment.
Elizabeth nodded thoughtfully: "It turns out that our relationship is much closer than I imagined......"
"Intimacy?no, no, no, my little cutie, your relationship is not just as simple as intimacy, but is forcibly connected by some invisible force, and it will never be separated unless one of you dies. Cody explained with a wagging tail.
"That's a good thing, isn't it?" said Elizabeth, unsure.
"It's good for you, but it's hard for him to say. Because from the enemy's point of view, you are equivalent to his external weakness and weakness, and it is a relatively easy target to grasp. In addition, I would like to inform you, since your strength has grown rapidly in recent times, I am going to complete the second evolution in the past few days, and I need to sleep for a long time, so it's best not to disturb me if there is nothing to do. ”
With that, Cody threw away the empty glass bottle and leaped under the crack in the door.
"Evolved again, looks like I could consider finding another suitable pet ......," Elizabeth muttered to herself.
Needless to say, Cody's ability to transform from a sharded world creature that can only sell cuteness to a magical creature that can speak is all due to a natural ability that she has awakened not long ago.
To put it simply, it is to inject the blood and magical energy of a witch into the body of a certain creature, so that it can complete a similar genetic mutation and become an out-and-out high-IQ magical creature.
Of course, this kind of endowing is not unlimited, and the witch's own strength must reach a certain level, otherwise there will be a danger of being eaten by pets.
But right now, the first pet has evolved twice in a short period of time, indicating that the degree of bloodline awakening is much higher than expected, and it can fully afford to raise a new pet.
Unlike Catherine, the witch of desire, Elizabeth's current awakening ability seems to be closer to that of an auxiliary "beast tamer" in addition to the most basic ideas.
It's just that the "beast trainer" referred to by the underground world is not simply training beasts, but giving ordinary beasts some supernatural powers, and ordering them to fight for themselves when they encounter danger.
