Chapter 1067: Chapter 601: Shen Sui’s Huge Flaws and Virtues (2)

Alice heard this sentence and really didn’t know how to refute it, because in a certain sense, Claude indeed had his eyes on Haral’s body.

The Red Moon Fox was obviously the leader among the three divine beasts. It walked gracefully, circled Alice once, nodded and said, "Indeed, that guy left a mark on you to prove you’re his heir."

"Oh my god?!" The Three-legged Golden Crow shrank its body and landed steadily on Alice’s shoulder, its beautiful eyes examining Alice’s face, "What’s your relation with him? Are you his daughter? That guy actually gave his mark to someone else?"

Alice scratched her head and said, "I feel like you might be misunderstanding him... He’s not that bad, right?"

"Misunderstanding?" The Red Moon Fox stopped, "You’re not father and daughter?"

"I meant his character."

"Huh? Does such a thing exist on him?" The Three-legged Golden Crow shook its head in confusion, said somewhat excitedly, "Damn! As a great Three-legged Golden Crow, my most proficient skill now is barbecue! Barbecue! That guy made me prepare meals for hundreds of spirit beasts every day! I’m a grand True God!"

"Wow~ You know how to barbecue?!" Hearing the Three-legged Golden Crow’s words, Alice’s eyes instantly lit up.

Feeling the admiration from the girl, the Three-legged Golden Crow lifted its head: "Of course! My skills are renowned throughout the Spirit Beast Realm!"

Alice took out a bunch of skewered meat from her ring: "Can you help me roast it? I really want to taste meat roasted by a divine beast’s fire!"

No! That sentence was clearly a complaint! You shouldn’t be asking for barbecue at this time!

Lingyi nearly fainted upon witnessing Alice’s actions.

The aura emitted by these three divine beasts was absolutely terrifying. Even without purposely targeting Lingyi, the oppressive presence alone made Lingyi unable to act.

She could only silently pray in her heart that Alice wouldn’t anger these three beings.

The Three-legged Golden Crow was instantly put in an awkward position.

How could there really be someone who asks it to barbecue?

"Sigh... Is it not okay?" Seeing the hesitation of the Three-legged Golden Crow, Alice showed a disappointed expression.

A certain emotion in the Three-legged Golden Crow was instantly stirred: "Humph! I am the Three-legged Golden Crow! A true True God! Don’t underestimate me!"

Thus, it really started roasting the skewers for Alice.

"So amazing! So amazing!" Alice clapped her hands in joy.

The Three-legged Golden Crow became even more motivated.

The skewers in Alice’s hands soon emitted a tempting aroma, exuding a tantalizing scent.

"Why do I feel..." The Red Moon Fox watched Alice happily eating the skewers and couldn’t help but quip, "as if we’re accompanying a young lady on a picnic?"

However... Alice’s expression of enjoyment seemed to carry a natural magic power, making the Red Moon Fox, who initially had some hidden hostility toward her, ease its guard.

This adorable girl, what ill intentions could she have?

Under the advantage of appearance and personality, Alice quickly got along well with the three divine beasts.

Lingyi secretly admired Alice’s powerful social skills.

The three divine beasts beside Alice seemed very content.

With Alice, they experienced unprecedented respect.

Respect and understanding they never felt from Shen Sui.

Alice truly regarded them as comrades in arms rather than mounts, tools, or breeding materials.

Compared to their original master, Alice was simply an angel!

Thus, unbeknownst to Shen Sui, the three divine beasts he entrusted to Alice had dazzlingly chosen to betray him, not wanting to return to Shen Sui’s side at all.

"So... even though you can fly..." Feeling the three divine beasts on her back, Lingyi couldn’t help but quip, "why do you have to ride me to find the enemy?"

Except for the Star Dust Illusion, both the Red Moon Fox and the Three-legged Golden Crow could serve as mounts.

Being ridden by Alice was understandable, but having other mounts ride as well instantly made Lingyi feel like she was at the lowest tier.

Unfortunately, she wasn’t a match for these beings and could only endure it.

The Red Moon Fox decisively ignored Lingyi’s complaint and began introducing the forest’s situation to Alice.

The New Moon Forest is one of the most important habitats for wild spirit beasts in this world, widely inhabited by powerful spirit beasts, including those at the Quasi-Divine and True God stages. At its peak, this forest had nine divine beasts.

Simultaneously, the materials needed for spirit beast upgrades are also widely distributed here, making it the world’s primary area for exploration.

"The master once established three bases here to excavate materials from the forest," the Red Moon Fox explained to Alice, "Though the master often acts inhumanly and always excessively exploits us, I have to admit, he’s quite knowledgeable in spirit beast cultivation, knowing what we’re good at. Like me, I’m specialized in creating and building."

Saying this, the Red Moon Fox gestured to its two companions, saying, "The Golden Crow is responsible for tasks related to fire, such as cooking, smelting, and forging, while Star Dust takes care of electricity generation and mining."

The structures built by the spirit beasts were of unusually high quality, even after a thousand years, Alice could still observe Shen Sui’s bases from the air.

However, every time Lingyi flew over these bases, she could sense the powerful aura emanating from nearby.

These auras were similar to those of the Red Moon Fox and others, indicating True God stage spirit beasts within the New Moon Forest.

One of the bases was located on a cliff of a mountain, and only then did Alice see the source of the powerful aura near the base’s ruins.

She saw a giant goat.

"That’s a giant antelope," the Red Moon Fox glanced and said, "one of the gentlest divine beasts."

Alice saw the giant antelope repeatedly crashing into Shen Sui’s former base, building debris splashing from its twisted spiraling horns.

Despite the Red Moon Fox’s description of its gentle nature, Alice clearly perceived hatred and ferocity from it.

The giant antelope was destroying Shen Sui’s base for about ten minutes before happily roaring towards the sky, then contently departing.

Staring at the retreating back of the giant antelope, Alice curiously turned to the Red Moon Fox: "Is that what you call gentle?"

"Uh... maybe the master plucked its wool too often?" the Red Moon Fox said awkwardly.

The wool of the giant antelope is one of the game’s extremely precious materials, so Shen Sui often troubles the giant antelope.

He would gather a large group, overpower the giant antelope, shave its wool, and then leave.

Usually, after being defeated, spirit beasts hold a certain chance to be tamed by Beast Taming Masters.

After being knocked down consistently, the giant antelope almost considered submitting to Shen Sui’s will.

But Shen Sui was clever! If he made the giant antelope his spirit pet, he would need to invest significant resources into growing its wool in the future. Letting it remain wild meant its wool would naturally replenish over time!

Weighing these economic factors, Shen Sui completely ignored the giant antelope’s willingness to submit, determined solely on overpowering and plucking its wool.

This behavior, over time, instilled deep-seated hatred in the giant antelope, leading to unprecedented animosity towards Shen Sui, and even after a thousand years, it occasionally visits Shen Sui’s former bases to vent.

"Uh... were many spirit beasts treated this way?" Alice exclaimed in shock.

The Red Moon Fox wagged its tail: "Not too many... just about eight divine beasts were treated like that."

"How come I remembered there being only nine divine beasts at the peak?"

"Exactly, that was during that time."

"Well, at least there’s one divine beast remaining."

"The last one is called Mo Suo..."
