Beast Taming: The Empress Is Shocked After Peeking Into My Future Webnovel - Chapter 115

115 The Mutated Lear

“Flame Owl!”

Shen Fei immediately summoned the Flame Owl and walked toward the nest of the trap-type exotic beasts. This kind of Spider-like exotic beast was easy to deal with, and it could provide a lot of points.

It was a pity that when he had killed Lear’s beast a few days ago, this stele had not been erected yet. Otherwise, he would have saved himself a lot of trouble.

Shen Fei casually walked forward. He still remembered what Aloy had said before. The school council hoped that they could use this opportunity to find Lear.

!!
Although Shen Fei was reluctant, he still had to put on an act on the surface. After all, a lot of people were watching.

However, his surroundings began to seem strange as Shen Fei kept going forward. There were many traps set up by the spider-like exotic beasts around him, but after such a long time, he had yet to see a single exotic beast appear in front of him.

There was something wrong with the jungle.

Shen Fei furrowed his brows. The Flame Owl beside him had also puffed out its chest, looking around warily.

“Coo, coo!” It hurriedly called out twice and immediately bit Shen Fei’s earlobe.

“I know it’s dangerous, but don’t tell anyone.” Shen Fei looked ahead.

There was something in the jungle, looking at them!

“Shen Fei, long time no see.”

A hoarse voice that was both familiar and strange came from the darkness.

“Who are you?”

Shen Fei frowned. Even though that person did not walk out of the jungle, just by hearing the voice, Shen Fei already had a guess in mind.

As if it sensed danger, the Flame Owl on Shen Fei’s shoulder immediately assumed a fighting stance and vigilantly watched the darkness in the depths of the forest.

The moment she heard the voice, Aloy frowned. She would never forget this voice even if she died. It was definitely Lear, no doubt about it!

However, upon closer inspection, it sounded much hoarser than Lear’s voice.

Aloy frowned. Something must have happened while they were in the wormhole.

“Strange, did a new exotic beast appear in the wormhole?”

Everyone in the school council came forward curiously, wanting to take a closer look.

“Shen Fei, you’re so forgetful. I haven’t seen you for only a few days, and you’ve already completely forgotten me! Hahahahahahaha!”

A burst of horrifying laughter came from the jungle. This laughter caused Shen Fei to shiver.

‘What the hell is that thing?’

Thud! Thud!

Heavy footsteps were heard as a huge creature covered in putrid mucus slowly walked out from the depths of the jungle.

The moment he walked out, Shen Fei subconsciously covered his nose.

‘This smell…’

“What’s that?”

Everyone on the school council stood up one after another, looking at the strange behemoth in confusion.

“I’ve studied wormholes for so many years, but I’ve never seen such a strange thing. It would be great if Shen Fei could defeat it and bring back some samples for me to study.”

Aloy frowned. She was very sure that this so-called exotic beast was the Lear that the council had been looking for.

She did not expect Lear to become like this after not seeing him for a few days. He was neither human nor ghost.

No wonder the Ice Spirit could not find him. Looking at Shen Fei’s reaction, Lear’s smell must be meant for only humans to detect.

Aloy looked at Lear in derision. ‘Why is he willing to become like this?’

“Shen Fei, I’ll take your life!” The stinky Lear roared at Shen Fei. “I’ve already mastered a brand-new power. Even if you bring out both of your spirit beasts to fight me, it’s useless!”

“I’ll know if it’s useful or not after I try it.”

Shen Fei pinched his nose and glared at Lear. Even though he had become like this, his nature had not changed at all, still rotten to the core.

“We’ll talk after you blocked this move! Die, Shen Fei!”

Lear stomped his foot on the ground, and a strong gust of wind suddenly rose around them, causing the leaves to rustle.

Whoosh!

The trees withered and the grass turned black wherever the wind blew. The observation crystal nearby was also covered in a thick layer of black mist.

“What’s going on?!” Everyone in the school council watched the crystal in confusion.

“You guys wait here, I’ll be back soon.”

In such a situation, Shen Fei probably wouldn’t be able to handle it alone.

Aloy quickly got up and walked into the wormhole. She had to hurry over to help him.

…

The moment the black wind blew past, everything in the area was covered in a layer of black mucus.

“Coo, coo!”

The Flame Owl impatiently flapped its wings, and a pure yellow protective barrier appeared around Shen Fei. This way, the black mucus was completely blocked.

“How did you become like this?” Shen Fei stood within the protective barrier and looked at Lear hesitantly.

To be honest, he had not expected Lear to develop to this extent. He had thought that Lear would only be able to catch two more exotic beasts here, not actually merge with an exotic beast by their next encounter!

This was truly shocking… However, Lear’s taste seemed a little off. No wonder Aloy hated him so much.

“You’re asking me how I became this beautiful?” At this point, Lear made a narcissistic gesture by running his fingers across his forehead. “This is all thanks to you, Shen Fei!”

“Me?” Shen Fei took two steps back in disgust. He did not want to have anything to do with this kind of thing.

“If you hadn’t changed my crystal and trapped me here, I wouldn’t have found the Misty Marsh by chance and become so powerful.”

Lear looked at his own body admiringly. He was so perfect now. Not only did he become one with a powerful exotic beast, he had also discovered an even more powerful strength!

Just by smelling him, Shen Fei almost vomited. Only Lear could endure such a sickening stench.

“Flame Owl, find an opportunity to attack him!”

“Coo, coo!” The Flame Owl flapped its wings and flew into the air, looking down at Lear below.

“Ah, Shen Fei, I suppose you only know these little tricks.” Lear laughed smugly. “If you’re still thinking of relying on that puny little Flame Owl to defeat me, then you’re dreaming too much. Ha!”

Lear’s entire body suddenly gathered into a ball. He stood up straight, and the mud all over his body scrambled to climb onto Lear’s hands as if it had a life of its own.

Not long after, a huge mud ball appeared in his hand. The surface of the mud ball emitted a purple poisonous gas. The moment it was formed, the surrounding trees suddenly withered.
