Chapter 266: Xu Dahai Obtained a Pet Egg
As expected, Xu Dahai cried.
He even secretly wiped his eyes, thinking that Lucy couldn’t see him.
“Why are you crying?”
Xu Dahai explained, “It’s not crying! My face is just wet!”
“What’s the difference?”
“I don’t think there’s a difference. I’m just too happy. I thought Lugh had forgotten about me.” Xu Dahai looked at Lucy and begged softly, “Don’t tell Lugh about this. If he knew, he would definitely laugh at me.”
“En, don’t worry. I won’t tell him.”
“Thank you.”
The first time Xu Dahai looked at Lucy, he felt that this sister who spoke a little coldly was very reliable.
She should be the type that kept her word.
“Oh right, where’s my gift?”
“It’s for you!”
Lucy handed the Azure Eagle egg to Xu Dahai.
“Fierce Beast egg?”
Xu Dahai took the Azure Eagle egg from Lucy’s hand.
“What kind of Fierce Beast egg is this?”
“Platinum-tier potential Azure Eagle egg!”
“Isn’t it too valuable?” Xu Dahai suddenly felt that the Fierce Beast egg in his hand was extremely heavy. His hand that was holding the Azure Eagle egg began to tremble. “This gift is too valuable. I can’t accept it. Can you return it to him? He should need it more, right?”
“You’re still worried about him? That guy doesn’t lack Platinum-grade beast eggs,” Lucy said calmly. “He originally wanted to give you a more valuable Star Glory-grade beast, but he was stopped by me because it’s risky to control a Star Glory-grade beast.”
“But this beast egg is still too valuable.”
Xu Dahai directly handed the beast egg to Lucy.
Lucy didn’t take it, but continued, “I’ll tell you directly, I’m a subordinate of Lugh. This time, I’m here under orders to give you a birthday present. If you don’t take it, I won’t be able to explain myself. Anyway, since the present has arrived, you can just throw it away.”
“You’re a… subordinate of Lugh?”
Xu Dahai swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
He knew that his good friend had made a meteoric rise, but he didn’t expect that Lugh actually had a subordinate.
And she was such a pretty sister although she looked a little cold.
“Yes, I don’t have to lie to you,” Lucy said. “I’m his adjutant now. I’ll do some tea and water delivery for him. Don’t spread the news of giving him a birthday present. Otherwise, it might affect his future. I hope you can accept the present. Otherwise, I might be punished when I go back.”
Of course, it was a lie to say that it would affect Lugh’s future.
As long as Lugh didn’t make a big mistake, his future would still be bright.
A small mistake wasn’t a big deal at all.
She just wanted to see Xu Dahai’s character.
“But I’m still a Black Iron Beast Master now. I can’t sign a pet beast.”
Perhaps it was because he also wanted the Azure Eagle, or perhaps it was because he couldn’t bear for Lucy to go back and be punished, Xu Dahai decided to leave the Azure Eagle egg behind.
“What was your pet beast?”
“The Light Wind Wolf!”
“Let’s go, I’ll bring you to set it free. I’ll come back for you in ten days.”
…
After Xu Dahai set the Light Wind Wolf free, he returned to the dormitory. He felt empty.
He remembered the look in the Light Wind Wolf’s eyes before it left, and his heart felt a little uncomfortable.
After all, they had been together for a year.
Then he thought of Lugh, Lucy’s beautiful subordinate.
At that time, he did not feel it, but now he felt like he had seen her somewhere before.
Just as he was about to turn off the lights, Xu Dahai jumped up from the bed and knocked on the door of the cla.s.smate next door.
The male cla.s.smate asked curiously, “Xu Dahai, what’s the matter?”
Xu Dahai did not answer him. Instead, he directly entered the small wooden house and stared blankly at the poster on the wall.
On the poster was a white-haired girl with a cold gaze and a beautiful face.
That’s right.
She looked almost exactly like Lucy under the street lamp.
Just as Xu Dahai was lost in his thoughts while staring at the poster, his male cla.s.smate stood in front of him and blocked his line of sight.
“Xu Dahai, what are you trying to do?”
“Who’s the person on that poster?”
“It’s my G.o.ddess. What’s wrong?”
“I just wanted to ask, what’s her name?”
“Lucy! You don’t even know that?” The male student moved aside and pointed at the poster. “G.o.ddess of Frost, Lucy, this is a very famous genius Beast Master. You don’t even know her? What kind of Beast Master are you?”
“She’s very famous?”
“Of course she’s famous,” the male student said with a smile. “Isn’t your good friend Lugh the champion of this year’s Southwest Grand Tournament?”
Xu Dahai nodded. “Yes.”
“The G.o.ddess of Frost, Lucy, was the champion of the previous Southwest Grand Tournament,” the male student said somewhat dejectedly. “Three years ago, I saw her battle videos for the first time. All of her opponents were frozen into ice cubes by her. If she hadn’t been older this year, Lugh might not have gotten first place.”
“That’s not right. Lugh is the strongest.”
“Alright, Lugh is indeed the strongest,” the boy didn’t deny it. “But my dream G.o.ddess is still Lucy. When I become a gold-tier Beast Master, I’ll definitely go to Skylight City to meet her.”
“Then keep dreaming.”
“Oh right, you’re still in contact with Lugh?”
“What’s wrong?”
“He might know Lucy.”
Xu Dahai smiled smugly. “We’re good friends. How can we not be in contact? Isn’t my birthday coming soon? I just received a gift from Lugh.”
The boy asked enviously and curiously, “What gift?”
“I can’t tell you for the time being.”
…
Xu Dahai returned to his wooden house. His mind was filled with what Lucy had told him earlier.
She was now the adjutant of Lugh. She served tea and water to Lugh and ran errands for him.
Xu Dahai did not believe that Lucy would lie to him, because with Lucy’s ident.i.ty, there was no need.
His cla.s.smate worshipped Lucy, so he decided not to tell him about this.
Xu Dahai was afraid that when his cla.s.smate heard this news, he would directly collapse.
After releasing the Light Wind Wolf, Xu Dahai had a pet. He told his teacher about this and said that someone had prepared a better pet for him.
Xu Dahai’s teacher also expressed understanding and gave him ten days off.
Ten days later, Xu Dahai saw Lucy again and left the training ground with her.
After finding a remote place, Lucy gave the Azure Eagle’s egg to Xu Dahai. “Let’s begin!”
In the past ten days, one of the Azure Eagle’s eggs was kept in Lucy’s hands.
The Azure Eagle’s value was no trifling matter. Even a Gold-tier Beast Master would be moved by it.
Lucy didn’t want to make any mistakes. She wanted to see Xu Dahai sign the contract with the Azure Eagle.
“Okay!”
Signing the contract with the Fierce Beast’s egg was very safe.
The process was extremely smooth. Xu Dahai looked at the baby Azure Eagle in front of him, his face filled with excitement.
Platinum-level Fierce Beast Azure Eagle. He had dreamed about it before.
“Here!” Lucy handed Xu Dahai a small video recorder.
“This is?”
“The Azure Eagle system training tutorial, and the essentials of the Azure Eagle’s fighting style,” Lucy said. “I hope that the next time I see you, it can take you flying.”
Xu Dahai took the video recorder and said excitedly, “I’ll work hard.”
“Let’s go, I’ll send you to the gate of the training camp.”
On the way, Xu Dahai handed a letter to Lucy, hoping that she would pa.s.s it to Lugh.
Lucy agreed immediately.
When he reached the gate of the training camp, when Xu Dahai turned around, he found that Lucy had already disappeared.
He was a little disappointed, but he also patted the little Azure Eagle’s head happily and strode into the training camp.
After Xu Dahai entered the training camp, Lucy’s figure appeared once again and disappeared in a flash.
Lugh stayed at home for five days. Only at dusk, when the weather was slightly cooler, would he take a walk along the s.p.a.cious and clean streets of the villa area.
During this period, he had also entered a hair salon.
He cut his slightly long hair into a buzz cut, and his whole person instantly became much more energetic.
The hairdresser’s fee was a little expensive, but not to the point of being ridiculous.
After returning to the 7th Team, he reported to Elisa and greeted his comrades whom he hadn’t seen for a long time. Just as he was about to return to his room, Colin called out to him.
“Lugh, they said that an extremely beautiful female Beast Master came to our 7th Team. I heard that her hair is white. Did you know?”
Lugh asked in puzzlement, “That’s what you guys were discussing just now?”
“Then what else can we talk about?” Colin smiled. “We’re just curious.”
The entire Emergency Response Team was in a state of decline.
