Chapter 26
Main Mission—Building a Dao Arena!
Su Hongcheng pointed at the blueprint and continued, “I don’t know the exact principle behind it, but after it’s connected to the mutated beast’s body, the beast can accurately receive the orders of a mental-type mutant.
“Think of it as a signal receiving device.
“However, this thing relies on force.”
Hearing Su Hongcheng say this, Lin Ye thought to himself, “Awesome.”
This ability was even more beast tamer-like than he was!
However, were there no aftereffects?
Lin Ye asked the question in his heart and Su Hongcheng smiled bitterly.
“How could that be possible?”
“Generally speaking, the controlled mutated beasts can only last for a month at most before completely losing control.
“The cages outside are to prevent mutated beasts from rioting.”
Su Hongcheng pointed at the cage outside the door.
“However, this aftereffect is completely acceptable to humans.
“At that time, there was a beast tide riot. Jiangzhou was very short of manpower.”
“Therefore, we directly applied to the academy for such a place to use to create a large-scale mental controller.
“We hoped to use this device to nurture some warriors who can fight alongside the mutated beasts.”
At this point, Su Hongcheng’s tone was filled with regret.
“But before this plan could be carried out, Qingqing’s mother and I were attacked by the polluter on the way home one night
“The rest is quite straightforward.
“The two of us were lucky to escape, but because her mother was severely injured, she could not use her mutant ability anymore.”
“The research of the mental controller was stopped and this place that was meant for nurturing mutated beast warriors was also abandoned.
After hearing this secret, Su Qingqing pounced into Su Hongcheng’s arms.
After all, she was a young girl. It was normal for her to have such emotional fluctuations after hearing that her parents had almost died.
Patting Su Qingqing’s back, Su Hongcheng looked at Lin Ye sincerely.
“I invited Shop Owner Lin here firstly to make up for Qingqing’s mother’s regret back then
“Secondly, I think those ‘beasts’ of yours are more effective than the mental control method.
“I’ve seen the growth speed of Qingqing’s puppy.
“It only took less than a week to grow from a high level one to level two. This speed is countless times faster than those so-called geniuses in my academy.”
Hearing Su Hongcheng use Su Qingqing’s little husky as an example, the corner of Lin Ye’s mouth could not help but twitch.
“Dean Su, there’s something you need to know.
“The reason why your daughter’s beast leveled up so quickly is completely due to the combination of talent and money.
“Not only does this method cost a lot of money, this nurturing method is also quite taxing on the tamed beasts.”
“If not for the fact that the quality of your daughter’s puppy is relatively high, it would probably have directly exploded and died after eating that level three crystal core.”
Su Hongcheng nodded in understanding.
“Although that’s the case, at the very least, these beasts are stable and have growth potential.
“Be it mutants or ordinary people, this is a blessing.”
Lin Ye did not refute this.
However, at this moment, he was still thinking about the things Su Hongcheng had said.
“By the way, Dean Su, then how did the army gain control of this technology?”
Su Hongcheng sighed.
“That’s what makes me so angry.
“The person who attacked us was clearly the polluter. I’ve never a.s.sociated that technology with the attack.
“Until I saw the device the other night.
“As for how it appeared in the hands of the army, you might have to ask the professor who cooperated with us at that time.”
Lin Ye suddenly said, “Is he a mole?”
Su Hongcheng shook his head.
“I don’t know. It’s said that on the day we were attacked, he was also attacked and disappeared.”
This was a big deal.
This person was either kidnapped or a spy.
Seeing the expression on Lin Ye’s face, Su Hongcheng smiled bitterly.
“At that time, many people in the academy knew about our research, so I couldn’t directly a.s.sume that he was one who leaked the technology.”
At this point, Su Hongcheng’s tone suddenly became serious.
“However, this matter is clearly related to the army.
“Including the people who attacked Qingqing and you that night.
“Unfortunately, that one-armed captive was taken away by the Mutant Federation. I can’t figure out anything for now.
“All of this can only be considered as my guess for now.”
Lin Ye frowned.
Before the mutated beasts attacked, there was no reason for the army to notice a small and invisible person like him ~
Now, not only were they targeting him, they had even sent the polluters to attack him.
Those things could not be called humans anymore. How could the army cooperate with them?
Lin Ye frowned and voiced his doubts.
Su Hongcheng paused and said something rather ambiguous.
“I don’t know the details, but at the moment, there’s definitely a problem within the army.
“The way many of them do things now is completely contrary to the original intention of the army.”
Lin Ye thought of Hong Zhijun he had encountered that night.
This burly man was quite typical of a soldier and did not leave a bad impression.
However, Su Hongcheng had also said that only a portion of them were like this.
“What about the Human Alliance?”
Lin Ye remembered that the army of every city was under the Federation.
Su Hongcheng shook his head.
“The Federation won’t care about such a small matter.
“As long as the army doesn’t rebel and doesn’t wantonly kill civilians, the Federation won’t care.
“Especially since this system has been operating for nearly a hundred years, the Federation is now more like a peacemaker.”
“They will smooth over the various organizations such as the Mutant Federation, the Army, and the academies in every city to maintain the balance of the city.
Alright…
Lin Ye sighed in his heart.
In other words, the army was equivalent to the local emperor of a city.
However, this local emperor had two compet.i.tors.
From the current situation in Jiangzhou, Lin Ye felt that it was clearly impossible for the academy to be a powerful compet.i.tor for the “emperorship”.
It was because Su Hongcheng, the leader of the academy, was a little too… easygoing.
A person with such a personality could teach and educate others, but he definitely could not be relied on to “expand” his territory on the battlefield of power.
After hearing this, Lin Ye only felt pressured.
That night, Wu Yan was not finished with his interrogation.
Moreover, they were all fellow “beast tamers”. There was no reason for such a local emperor to let him off so easily.
It was clearly only a matter of time before they came looking for him.
Even if Lin Ye was immune to mental attacks, his body was not invincible!
Originally, he had already been a little slow-paced. Now, he could not wait to let Little Tanuki and Blackie advance to the ninth level immediately!
Seeing Lin Ye’s serious expression, Su Hongcheng comforted, “Shop Owner Lin, don’t worry. In any case, this is your territory now. You can even move here directly.”
“Putting everything else aside, I can still guarantee that nothing will happen to you in the academy.”
Lin Ye saw that the corner of this oldie’s mouth kept rising when he said this. Lin Ye knew that he had fallen victim to the other party’s scheme.
Moreover, it was a blatant scheme.
These threats definitely existed, and Su Hongcheng was probably not exaggerating.
However, it was unknown when they would erupt.
Just as Lin Ye was wondering if there was a way to get the best of both worlds, the system suddenly appeared.
[Detected that the host has a territory suitable for building a dojo. The main mission—Construction of the Beast Taming Dojo]
Lin Ye was speechless.
What was the meaning of this? It had been so long since the main storyline.
What kind of stupid system was this!!!
