Chapter 693 - 304: Giant Royal Court (Part 2)

Why does it feel like it eats even more than the Fallen Meteor Horned Beast?

Is the owner really planning to bring it back to the farm?

Isn’t the owner afraid this big guy will eat the farm into bankruptcy?

If that happens, maybe we won’t be able to drink frozen Cola every day...

"Awooo!"

No way!

The thought barely emerged, and Cola quickly turned to look at the Big Sister and the Twin Flower Concubine, ready to ask them to help persuade the owner not to bring the big guy back to the farm.

But the Twin Flower Concubine never pays attention to external matters while eating; it’s like a little princess trained in etiquette, sitting gracefully and elegantly, though her expression is somewhat cold.

Cola shifted its gaze to the Big Sister.

Big Sister, this time we need to work together to resolve the farm crisis.

The farm can’t be eaten into bankruptcy!

"Chirp~"

Spark glanced at Cola indifferently, its golden-red eyes flickering.

It’s not interested in these things.

"Awoo..."

Seeing that both the Twin Flower Concubine and the Big Sister were not interested, Cola was secretly anxious, as if it could already see the farm falling apart under their indifference.

It had to think of a way to save the impending crisis.

"Wow~"

"Big Snow Giant, so this is where you are."

A childish voice chimed in, and Cola looked up to see Zhao’s figure before grinning.

Back in Xuanhe Town, Zhao and the others loved playing with the Puppy Team the most.

He must be here for me.

But Zhao’s actions were unexpected. He walked straight up to the Frost Giant seated on the ground, raising his innocent face with clear eyes flickering: "Are you still hungry?"

"Roar~"

The Frost Giant lowered its eyes, and its seemingly fierce face unexpectedly broke into a happy smile, first scratching its head with its giant hand, then gently rubbing its belly.

With the same posture, but this time it shook its head while rubbing its belly.

Although not full, it’s not hungry anymore.

"That’s great!"

Upon hearing that, Zhao’s face showed genuine joy, then he sneakily looked back at the way he came, deliberately lowering his voice: "If you’re still not full, I’ll bring you something to eat when I get home later."

He paused, touching his slightly aching bottom, his young face revealing a bold smile: "I heard you helped chase away those bad guys, so even if dad finds out I secretly gave you food, he probably won’t keep hitting me..."

As he listened, Zhao seemed to remember the previous mixed-gender scolding and the belt that glimmered coldly, the lingering pain on his bottom becoming more apparent, and he suddenly burst into tears: "Waaah, why do they still hit me?"

"Waaah!"

The sudden crying left the Frost Giant stunned, its large hands waving mindlessly, wanting to comfort him by touching his head, yet afraid its strength might accidentally injure Zhao.

For a moment, the Frost Giant, who bravely faced off against a group of Split-tooth Steel Mane, was left dumbfounded.

"Awooo~"

Luckily, as the leader of the Puppy Team, Cola had a way with handling these crying little kids, it gently opened its mouth, quickly summoning a breeze.

The breeze enveloped Zhao’s entire body, and in that moment, it seemed as if invisible hands lifted him up, making Zhao gradually float above the ground.

The sudden change left Zhao momentarily stunned, and he widened his eyes, watching the ground move away, and he stopped sobbing.

Then, Cola let Zhao experience the sensation of floating off the ground, sometimes up, sometimes down, Zhao’s face gradually showing a smile: "Fun, fun!"

Cola grinned, but made sure Zhao didn’t fly too high, since he was just a very fragile little human, he couldn’t be allowed to encounter any danger.

After coaxing him in this special way for a while, Cola let Zhao land back on the ground, just in time for a voice to ring out from behind: "It’s getting late, you should head home."

"Okay, Chen Yuan brother!"

Zhao wanted to keep feeling the flight sensation, but he was exceptionally obedient in front of Chen Yuan, waving goodbye: "Bye-bye, Big Snow Giant!"

Walking home, Zhao started thinking about how to describe today’s experience to his friends.

They’ll definitely be jealous.

Zhao’s lips curled into a smile, dancing around, though inadvertently pulling at his sore bottom, he suddenly inhaled sharply, once again becoming teary-eyed.

After Zhao left, Chen Yuan strolled over to the Frost Giant, planning to ask about its background, only to see Cola biting his clothes: "Awooo!"

Turning his head, he saw Cola’s gaze was fixed on the empty boxes of Pet Beast Food.

Understanding Cola’s concern through their telepathic connection, Chen Yuan chuckled softly.

True to my dog’s nature, worried just like I used to.

But I’m no longer who I once was, and I’m not planning to bring the Frost Giant back to the farm.

Isn’t it a waste not to take the naturally gifted Earth and Wood Saint Body to the construction site?

The thought flashed by, and he looked at Cola, raising his hand to pat its head, "Don’t worry, the farm is impossible to drain of resources."

"Even if you all stay on the farm for a lifetime, I can make sure your life is comfortable every day."

"Ow!"

Cola’s eyes widened abruptly, its light brown fur fluttering in the wind.

Can I have ten bottles of cola every day then?

Chen Yuan pretended not to hear this and turned directly to the Frost Giant, straightforwardly asking, "Where do you come from?"

"Roar?"

The Frost Giant scratched its head, the dim yellow light reflecting off its confused face.

It seemed not to understand the question, or maybe it couldn’t accurately say where it came from.

Chen Yuan pondered for a bit, then tried asking in a different way, "Why did you come here?"

"Roar..."

This time, the Frost Giant understood. It lowered its head, and the shadow cast by its massive body enveloped Chen Yuan.

The giant didn’t know why it had come here. It only knew it had walked for a long time, coming across this small village surrounded by mountains after a blizzard.

It wanted to come in to find food but was afraid of alarming the villagers, hesitating for a long time until Zhao discovered it.

Hearing the Frost Giant’s explanation, Chen Yuan nodded thoughtfully.

If another Pet Beast had said this, he would be skeptical, but coming from this big guy that even starves itself, it was pretty convincing.

Though it’s just Tier Two, it’s still a noble Morning Star Quality Pet Beast, its strength sufficient to roam the nearby regions without worry for food and drink.

Yet it was still hungry.

Chen Yuan showed a contemplative expression and continued to ask, "Given your strength, you shouldn’t be lacking food."

Even if this place had endured a blizzard, it shouldn’t pose much of a problem for a Frost Giant.

But faced with this question, the Frost Giant merely grinned sheepishly, scratching its head, choosing not to answer.

"Ow!"

Seeing the Frost Giant unwilling to answer, Cola looked angry, waving its paws, deliberately putting on a fierce demeanor.

Big guy, you’ve been given an opportunity for food and shelter, yet you don’t give face to the master!

Do you know who’s in charge of this area?

The Frost Giant stayed silent, merely shaking its head continuously.

Chen Yuan frowned, finding the reaction of the Frost Mountain Giant odd.

Does it have some unspoken difficulties?

There’s indeed something fishy about this guy’s background.

But Chen Yuan wasn’t willing to let go of this big guy with limitless potential just yet. With its help in building and protecting the town, many troubles could be avoided.

A Morning Star Quality free labor isn’t easy to come by and must be held onto firmly.

Chen Yuan’s eyes glimmered with thoughts; soon, he had an idea: "Remember what I said earlier about food and shelter?"

"I have a task I need your help with, and once completed, you’ll get endless food."

"Roar?"

Perhaps the words "endless food" caught the Frost Giant’s attention; it stared fixedly at Chen Yuan, emitting an indescribable aura from its massive body.

But when Spark gave it a cold glance, that aura vanished.

Chen Yuan smiled slightly, explaining in detail, "The task is very simple: just help transport heavy items while protecting others."

"Roar..."

The Frost Giant stared unblinkingly at Chen Yuan, its enormous amber eyes shining, then a pure and innocent smile spread across its face.

It was tempted.

It wanted to agree now.

It wanted to start transporting heavy items now.

Chen Yuan looked up at the pitch-black sky, maintaining his smile, "No rush to agree, think it over tonight."

The night was deep, and it was too hasty to return to Xuanhe Town now, better to stay in Anchang Village for the night and set off tomorrow.

Moreover...

Chen Yuan glanced subtly at the silly laughing Frost Giant, his mind whirling with thoughts.

The return was a good twenty kilometers, just enough to take the opportunity to figure out the Frost Giant’s capabilities, see if it could handle the task.

If it wasn’t up to the task, it’d be better for this guy to stay hidden in these mountains, away from ordinary people.

As he pondered, the night passed swiftly.
