Kapitel 59: Chapter 59: The Tempestuous Demon Roc
The train and the airplane routes are planned only after thorough investigation by professional magicians. Typically, these routes do not harbor any significant monsters. Even if there are any, they are usually just minion-level or warrior-level monsters. However, this time it seemed Qin Chen had hit the jackpot. Just as he finished strengthening his star array, an immensely powerful presence appeared in the distance.
Turning his gaze towards the source of the aura, he could barely make out a green bird in the far distance. Even from such a distance, the bird's terrifying aura conveyed a suffocating sense of impending death.
«This aura is far beyond the leader-level Winged Wolf. It's the highest tier among monarch-level creatures!»
Feeling the overwhelming aura, Qin Chen immediately considered jumping off the train to escape.
Yet, as he contemplated his escape, the Suzaku feather mark on his brow, which had been dormant, suddenly reappeared and emitted a warm aura, seemingly guiding him to approach the green bird.
«I'm thinking of running away, and you want me to go towards it? Are you trying to get me killed?»
Qin Chen felt speechless. Although he had inherited the Suzaku legacy, aside from the Suzaku wings and the Suzaku fire, he hadn't gained anything particularly special. As for approaching that bird, he had no intention of doing so; he wasn't ready to die.
However, the Suzaku feather mark on his brow began to heat up again, transmitting some information about the Suzaku Saint Totem to him. He realized the green bird was a descendant of Suzaku and a totem beast. It had left the human world to live in the wild and harbored no malice towards humans. Seeing it now, the Suzaku feather naturally wanted Qin Chen, the Suzaku heir, to approach it.
«Fortune favors the bold. If you encounter it, seize the opportunity. Let's go!»
Choosing to trust the information provided by the Suzaku feather, he reasoned that Suzaku wouldn't harm its heir. If he could befriend the bird, it would be a powerful ally. In this dangerous world, having such a strong protector at critical moments would be invaluable. Without sufficient cards up his sleeve, he wouldn't even know how he'd end up dying.
With that thought, he found the train manager and asked him to open the door. The manager, petrified with fear, didn't move. Frustrated, Qin Chen had to open the door himself with a key, then revealed his Suzaku wings and flew towards the green bird. Luckily, the bird was flying towards him too, otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to catch up.
As the green bird approached, Qin Chen finally saw it clearly. It was a massive green roc, its wingspan extending five thousand meters, blocking out the sky. Its sheer size and speed left him in awe; one moment it was far away, the next it was right in front of him, defying his comprehension.
When the green roc saw Qin Chen, or more precisely, the Suzaku wings on his back, it immediately flew over and landed on his back before he could react. He was astonished, thinking he was doomed.
«Chirp!»
The roc's call wasn't transmitted through his ears but directly through the Suzaku feather mark on his brow, allowing him to understand its meaning.
«You're saying your name is Tempestuous Demon Roc and you want to know where the owner of these wings is?» Qin Chen tentatively asked.
«Chirp!»
After the roc responded, Qin Chen realized it was true. The roc was a descendant of the totem beast Roc, which explained why it recognized the Suzaku wings.
«These Suzaku wings are a heritage from the Saint Totem Suzaku, who saw my exceptional talent and bestowed them upon me along with Suzaku fire,» Qin Chen earnestly explained, showing his flames.
«Chirp!»
The Tempestuous Demon Roc believed him. The Suzaku wings and Suzaku fire were symbols of the Saint Totem Suzaku. With these items, whatever Qin Chen said would be believed by the totem beasts that trusted Suzaku. This trust extended to him as well.
«Chirp!»
The roc spoke again.
«You mean your wing is injured and you want me to use Suzaku fire to heal it?»
Qin Chen looked at the roc's large left wing, spotting several gaping wounds, several thousand meters long and bleeding profusely. The wounds bore a strong lightning element that hindered the roc's healing abilities.
The Suzaku legacy mentioned that Suzaku fire, while destructive, also had regenerative properties. It could heal itself and others, a power that made Suzaku a revered totem through its countless acts of healing.
«My Suzaku fire is only at the spirit seed level and can't heal such severe wounds.»
Qin Chen felt helpless. As a mid-level mage, he could heal human injuries but not those of a supreme monarch-level beast like the roc. The spirit seed-level Suzaku fire wasn't powerful enough.
«However, I have another way to heal you. It involves capturing some monsters and using their life force to heal your wounds.»
An idea struck him. While Suzaku fire couldn't heal, his life-absorption technique could. He explained his plan, even demonstrating by injecting some life force into the roc's wound.
«Chirp!»
Feeling the soothing effect on its wound, the roc agreed without hesitation. As a totem beast and monster, it had no qualms about preying on weaker beings for survival. Using other monsters' life force to heal itself was perfectly natural.
«Your injuries are severe. It would be best to use monarch-level or leader-level monsters.»
Qin Chen suggested, seizing the opportunity to gain more leverage from his newfound ally.
«Chirp!»
The Tempestuous Demon Roc agreed, changing its flight path to seek out powerful monsters.
