34.37% The Strongest Beast Tamer / Chapter 66: Planning and Unwanted Attention

Chương 66: Planning and Unwanted Attention

After waiting for an hour, Chloe's husband walked through the door and jumped back by the sight of so many people. He also quickly realised a few of these people were unique like his daughter.

"Hello there Mr Wart, the names Lachlan I'm a friend of your wife," Lachlan introduced himself with a friendly smile.

"Oh, hello there, my names Flynn and forget about the formalities. I'm not interrupting anything am I?" He asked. He was curious as to why so many children were in his house, he could understand Lachlan since he's heard of him through his wife. But the children weren't apart of the information.

As he introduced himself Lachlan quickly analysed him and was slightly surprised by what he saw.

--------------------------------------------------------

He looks like your average businessman, the friendly type that plans your entire future. Short black hair combed back, dark brown eyes and tanned skin. He was 6'3 and really towered over Lachlan who was 5'2.

Lachlan's never seen a plant beast. Unless it meant Flynn could literally tame any plant. 'But that would mean he should have already taken up all his soul contracts' Lachlan knew it had to be intelligent plants. Plants that were similar to beasts, in that they hunt to feed themselves and possibly mate.

However, Lachlan also realised how difficult it would be for Flynn to tame a plant beast. Especially considering that within all the time Lachlan spent travelling across Australia he hasn't seen a plant beast once.

There were a few things Lachlan could think of immediately. They were Ents and Treants, with the possibility that maybe Dryads can be counted as well considering they are the tree spirits. Whatever the case, there aren't a lot of plant beasts.

"No, rather we were waiting for you to arrive," Lachlan said calmly as he gestured Flynn to sit down.

"Oh, hope I didn't make you wait too long, so what can I do for you?" Flynn asked. He looked over to the hybrids, his first thought was that Lachlan was planning on taking Sophie away. But then he remembered that Lachlan waited for him.

Lachlan began explaining his thoughts. Talking about how he wants to protect the children that have been abandoned by their parents or have lost their parents. In other words, start an orphanage but for every child no matter how unique their appearance is.

Flynn was excited by the idea, but had a few questions, "Where will it be stationed?"

"On the island," Lachlan said. Even Chloe was shocked by the information since Lachlan waited for all of them to be present.

"You talking about the island with increased gravity?" Flynn wanted to confirm his thoughts. He had heard quite a bit about the island, how it's the perfect place to train not to mention the safe environment and unique water.

"Yes I am indeed," Lachlan joyfully replied.

"But the children won't be able to handle it, most people won't be able to handle it," Chloe immediately argued back. Although there were qualities to the island that made it a great spot. What was the point if none of the normal people could actually stay there.

"The gravity stones," Lachlan immediately answered Chloe's concerns. Flynn was still left in the dark since Chloe hadn't mentioned the stones to him yet.

"What's this gravity stone he's talking about?" Flynn asked. He wanted to learn what could instantly answer his wife's concerns. He could only think that this gravity stone belonged to the island since the island had unique gravity of its own.

Lachlan pulled out a gravity stone from his bag, it was a low ranked one that provided the 2 times gravity, "Did you know this little stone here can give people the power over a certain level of gravity?" Lachlan almost sounded like a con artist, as though he was trying to sell the most mysterious and mystical thing in the world.

"This little thing," Flynn stared close but aside from the purple crystals sticking out he couldn't understand how it could control gravity.

"Pick it up," Lachlan already knew it would be difficult to believe it without proving it. Especially considering how sceptical Flynn seems.

Flynn immediately picked it up and weighed it in his hands. Nothing felt off about it, he even tossed it in the air a couple of times. Lachlan looked at the stone, 'Increase gravity two times.'

As Flyy had thrown it in the air he didn't expect it to come down so fast. He was unprepared and slammed his hand against the coffee table. Fortunately, the stone could only go up to 2 times. If Lachlan decided to use a medium ranked stone and increased the gravity 20 times Flynn's hand would likely be crushed.

"What the hell is this," Flynn could still pick up the stone but he noticed the difference in weight. His eyes widened in shock and he turned towards his wife who just nervously scratched her head a gave a giggle.

"That is a gravity stone, a low ranked one at that," Lachlan calmly explained, "The higher the rank the more powerful the gravity it can give off and nullify."

"So how powerful is this low ranked gravity stone?" Flynn got incredibly intrigued by how unique these stones were. Since gravity was a concept humanity has yet to take control of, similar to space and time it was untouchable.

"Low ranked gravity stones can give off 2 times gravity and nullify that amount as well," The way gravity stones worked was rather simple. Of course, Lachlan couldn't actually explain why they give the user control over gravity.

"So the higher the rank, the more intense the gravity it gives off and nullifies?" Flynn pretty much understood instantly. His voice sounded excited as he thought about all the things he could do with these stones.

"Essentially," Lachlan felt glad that Flynn was so excited about the stones.

"But how are we going to distribute them?" Chloe was more concerned about how they would use them. While Flynn seemed to focus more on the nullify part, Chloe was more worried about someone getting hold of it and using its intensify abilities.

Since the stone could be control from a distance and the targeted area can be changed around. If someone gets hold of the stones they could easily kill plenty of people if they place them inside buildings and increase the gravity.

If it was a high ranked stone the gravity would collapse buildings easily, not to mention the fact it would crush everyone into the ground that will be around it at the time. It was something they shouldn't give away recklessly.

"I'm planning on doing it in a way that it'll be similar to a hierarchy or secret organisations that have clearance levels. The higher clearance level and authority, the further one can go in the island," Lachlan explained.

"So the basic level will obviously be low ranked, but what about medium and high?" Chloe asked.

"Medium will be given to members will quite a bit of authority. Considering the difference between a low ranked stone and medium ranked stone is so much, the amount of trust needed for us to give someone one will be high," Lachlan answered quickly before he continued, "As for high ranked stones, they will only be given to the leaders and the strong."

"So why is medium going to be so high?" Chloe didn't understand Lachlan's thoughts about the medium ranked stone. Sure it would get someone further into the island but there wasn't much to see.

"Because that cave will be where we'll place our farms," Lachlan thought about it quite a bit. Sure they could have farms in Australia since the gravity on the island will be too much for normal plants. But he was enlightened when he remembered the cave, how the gravity was normal and how everything was flourishing.

Considering the amount of space in the cave there will be plenty of land to turn into farms.

"Oh," Chloe immediately realised what Lachlan was talking about and it made complete sense. She felt slightly silly for not understanding it sooner, "But who will be the farmers?"

They were going to need people to farm, which will mean those people won't gain much strength as their entire focus will be on the plants. They can't have their food supply die on them, that'll cause some issues.

"You should know how some people want to stay safe and for things to return to how they used to be?" Lachlan asked to which Chloe and Flynn nodded. Flynn especially knew of people that wanted things to go back, they mainly didn't want the fear of those beasts to constantly loom over their heads.

"Well, considering the strength to get into the caves is fairly high, and how the gravity in the main part is normal. Don't you think it's perfect for people who want to escape to live, and they don't have to worry about beasts since we'll be there protecting the island," Lachlan explained and thought his idea was pretty solid, he thought long and hard about it.

Chloe thought about it and realised he wasn't wrong. People would love to live there, everything would be simple. They wouldn't have to constantly fear death, and the cave they were actually in had everything they needed to survive.

"What about the unique fruits?" Chloe suddenly remembered that's also where the unique fruits grow.

"Well, I've been thinking that aside from the poison fruit which will be kept in another area. We should try to expand the other fruits, considering they have a lot of uses to us, especially the blood banana," That's what the group decided to call the vitality banana and Lachlan didn't argue against it.

"What are these fruits you're talking about?" Flynn perked in when he heard about unique fruits. Just the gravity stone was enough to get him to agree to go to the island. Let alone these apparent unique fruits there as well.

Lachlan pulled out a strength berry and threw it over, who knows, maybe if he eats it he might get the plus 20 strength points.

"What's this?" Flynn said as he stared closer and gave it a sniff. He then licked it which made him more confused since it seemed like a normal fruit.

"That's a berry that increases someone's strength, obvious it has its limits. The effect happens once and the increase is entirely random," The differentiate most of the fruits. Most of them felt a slight increase in their strength when eating it so they knew it increases strength.

The only ones that were a little bit difficult to test were the intelligence berry, perception berry, and willpower berry. Since there was no possible way to measure the effects correctly and Lachlan still didn't completely trust them at the time.

Of course, once everyone got together he decided he would tell them the big secret. He would only tell the ones that were on the island and their close ones, anyone else would still require a bit of trust building.

"This little thing increase strength, alrighty then," Flynn immediately threw it into his mouth without hesitation. Since the gravity stone worked he saw no reason to think Lachlan was lying to him.

Flynn felt his body get overwhelmed by a burning sensation, similar to when one works out for a long time. He felt his body get fatigued, rejuvenated, then fatigued again. By the time it finished, he was a sweating mess.

Lachlan analysed him to see the results.

Lachlan since he's heard of him through his wife. But the children weren't apart of the information.

As he introduced himself Lachlan quickly analysed him and was slightly surprised by what he saw.

Name: Flynn Wart (Human)

Age: 33 (Adult)

Soul Contracts: 0/5

--------------------------------------------------------

Flynn was the luckiest man alive. Although not really, since it was a 1/20 chance of getting it.

Flynn, on the other hand, felt his strength shoot through the roof. but when he looked at his muscles it dawned upon him that they didn't grow. Lachlan knew that the berry compresses the strength and already existing muscles so he wasn't too surprised.

"Anyway we're currently getting off topic, we can discuss more about it once everyone's together," Lachlan shook his hand in front of him and then turned towards Flynn, "So, do you want to join us?"

"You already had me at the gravity stones," Flynn excitedly said.

"Do you know if there are any more unique children?" Lachlan asked.

"Well, from what I've seen, whenever authorities get information about the children they go in and capture them, after that they trap them in cages and send them out in the wild," Flynn explained, his fist clenched with veins popping out of his skin.

"Do you know where they let them out?" Lachlan asked he was slightly annoyed at how the authorities handled the situation.

"I know where they leave the city and seeing as how the surrounding area is almost all high to death danger zones, it's likely they barely went out the city, maybe only went 1kilometre away," Flynn stated.

"True, we should be able to track them down with the help of Jayden's tamed beasts," Lachlan said as he pointed towards Jayden, "When was the last group of children sent out?" Lachlan asked.

"I believe it was 2 days ago," Flynn said.

"Alright, they probably haven't gone far or separated from each other," Lachlan said. Humans could last a little while without food and water, so it was likely the children were still alive. Hopefully, no beasts have got to them.

"Right, if we go now we'll have the best chances of finding them since tomorrow is going to have bad weather," Flynn explained.

"Sweet, everyone ready to go?" Lachlan asked.

The children all replied with a yes, they were excited to make more friends. Chloe had already joined, and she was strong, she didn't want her husband dying out in the wild.

"Let's go then, be quick we don't want anyone to notice us," Lachlan said.

They walked through the door and got onto the elevator, luckily it was empty. Seeing how high class these apartments are, not many people would be able to afford them.

"That reminds me, what is the currency now?" Lachlan asked. Although James had told them about a lot of events he never told them about the currency. Since all the nations combined there was bound to be a new currency.

"Oh yeah, you were isolated from the world for two years. So, the world has completely united and created a world currency, which is just dollars and cents. The average rent is $50 a week, this apartment complex is $130 due to its location being in the centre, so it's protected from all angles," Flynn then went on to explain how the world is currently working.

Schools have almost stopped entirely, they are now only teaching sciences and maths, with some schools teaching Design & Technology or STEM. The rest of the day is spent doing combat training, which has now become a compulsory subject.

The only way to get out of it is to partake in research, being an assistant and for the older and more smarter kids, being a researcher. The main topic researched is the beast bodies, finding their weak points, seeing which part of the meat is edible and if anybody parts could be used as a weapon.

Turns out that a majority of beast meat is delicious, only poisonous insect meat is disgusting. Which Lachlan already assumed, as the fish they caught on the island was always delicious.

Then the group made their way through the lobby but unfortunately gained some attention from the receptionist, a different one than before. Lachlan quickly realised the children weren't wearing their cloaks.

"Ah! There's a group of intelligent beasts here!" The receptionist screamed at the top of her lungs. People in the lobby and just out the door started running and panicking. Phones were brought out and numbers were dialled.

"Alright, now we run," Lachlan said.

He shot out the door, smashing through the glass and summoned Aaron, he got everyone on quickly. The authorities just arrived, armed and pointing towards the children.

Lachlan jumped up, "Fly!" he shouted.

Temp shot up, the wind from its wings pushed everyone in the area to the ground.

The military that was there picked up a communicator, giving a warning to the base.

At the base, after James heard the description of the people and called off the attack. Saying that it won't end well for them. He knew those children were rather close to Lachlan, and the military really couldn't handle to consequences of pissing off that group.

Chương 67: A Dark Truth

They flew on the Griffin for a bit, Lachlan used his strong perception to try and see something, it didn't take long for him to spot something unusual. He saw some bloodstains on the ground, red blood which usually meant human.

Lachlan decided to descend slowly, observing the surroundings for any movement. As he was coming down he saw two children by a tree, they were shaking from fear. It seems as though they want to come up to them but also didn't

Lachlan saw some wounds on their shoulders and hips, as though a nasty beast got to them. As there was a decent size of flesh missing.

--------------------------------------------------------

Lachlan wasn't sure whether or not they should use the bananas. Considering that it's only light wounds it's likely to heal itself. The group will just need to take care of them while they are recovering.

Lachlan held out his hand and gestured for the two to come over. The two children hesitated, still shaking in fear. Seeing that, Lachlan thought they were still traumatised from their parents abandoning them.

"Come over here, don't worry, we won't abandon you or hurt you," Lachlan calmly said as he walked closer. He took out two strength berries since they look rather delicious. He was trying to tempt the two children to come over, that way he could talk to them.

The children still hesitated before they began to walk slowly towards the group. Lachlan and the others didn't react, just put on a friendly smile and waited. It didn't take long for the children to come sprinting over, tear pouring out their eyes.

Lachlan squatted down held out his arms, the two ran into Lachlan and grabbed him. Their eyes still bawling out their eyes. Lachlan gently placed his hands on their heads and hugged them tightly.

"It's alright, here, have some fruit," Lachlan quickly let go and held the fruit out in front of them. They gladly accepted it and ate it. Their bodies slightly warmed up but aside from that nothing happened. Lachlan felt as though it was likely they didn't get a huge powerup but analysed them anyway.

--------------------------------------------------------

Lachlan found it odd that they didn't have a large reaction like Flynn. With such a massive increase their bodies should have been overwhelming with a burning sensation. Lachlan could only think that Hybrids can just deal with the fruits better.

"Hey there, do you know where the others are?" Lachlan asked with a friendly voice as he brought them closer again, they had stopped crying but were still scared. Their faces were a mess but that didn't stop them from answering.

They pointed right, where there was a small cave hidden behind some shrubbery. It was just large enough for an adult to walk through, granted the tall ones would have to lean over. Flynn had to really lean over to properly walk in the cave. Chloe and Dylan waited outside along with Aaron protecting the children.

As Lachlan and Flynn continued to walk they realised the ceiling was getting higher. It didn't take long until Flynn was able to walk normally.

They walked for only 1-minute max before they entire a large cavern. Lachlan could just make out some bodies outline by the edge of it, they were all laying down motionless. He could smell blood and got worried that a child was injured.

'Analyse'

There was nothing.

'That's strange' Lachlan found it odd that he couldn't analyse them. Unless of course, it was another ability that some hybrids had.

"Flynn can you get out a flashlight," Lachlan said, he was beginning to have a bad feeling in his stomach. The kind that you get when something really bad happens.

Flynn took out his phone and turned on the torch. He shone it over the cave and realised it was extremely large. As for the shadowy silhouettes on the other end of the cave. They were something Lachlan didn't wish to see.

A large pile of children corpses were in the cave, stacked fairly high and spread relatively wide. They had bullet wounds in the head, which now made sense as to why Faith and Danial had wounds on their shoulder. They managed to escape, but in the process were shot at. Fortunately, the bullets didn't hit anywhere vital.

Lachlan rage hit the roof. He immediately imagined all the children in this situation, but the one that snapped him was imagining Sarah, laying amongst a pile of corpses with a bullet through the head. Before Flynn could react or say anything Lachlan already disappeared from where he was and was outside the cave.

"Chloe and Dylan, you two take care everything here, I'm going to go have a little chat with someone," Lachlan said, his voice itself emitted bloodlust. Chloe and Dylan immediately felt the rage that was emitting from Lachlan's body.

'Aaron, make sure you protect everyone here'

'That's my duty' Aaron and all the Rocs felt the rage and hatred coming from Lachlan this time. It was slightly affecting their own mental state, making them feel angry.

"Come Calamity!" He shouted.

Calamity appeared, and he jumped on, before getting it to shoot up and fly towards the base. Not slow either, using its lightning speed they appeared there instantly.

He appeared by the base almost instantly. The base was enveloped with a wave of bloodlust. They were all trained soldiers that have felt it before, they weren't new with this feeling but found it strange that someone could release so much.

"James!" Lachlan shouted at the top of his lungs. Through all the training he did on the island the sheer capacity at which his voice can shout was reached that of a battleship horn. His voice quickly travelled over the base, causing the soldiers to stop what they were doing and look towards the sky.

"Hey isn't that Lachlan"

"Yeah, what's got him so angry"

"I have a bad feeling about this"

"Same"

"What do you want?" James took out a megaphone and shouted into it. He wasn't fazed by the bloodlust but rather confused as to why Lachlan was giving off so much of it.

"Where's Land Guardian leader of this base that you spoke of?" Lachlan knew James was innocent considering he spent most of his time, saving everyone across the world. Not to mention James already told him that the Sky Guardians and the Land Guardians both had rather strong opinions about the hybrids.

"I'm right here you brat," An old man walked through the crowd with a megaphone in his hands. He sounded extremely cocky and conceited. He was a skinhead, roughly 5'0 making him smaller then Lachlan but the man was extremely fat. Lachlan found it a joke that he could ever reach a level similar to James.

--------------------------------------------------------

Name: Josh Blunsdon (Human)

Age: 56 (Adult)

Soul Contracts: 1/5

Compatibility: Snakes (Low)

STR: 17, AGI: 12, VIT: 10

INT: 16, PER: 18, WIL: 15

Weakness: Arrogant, Overall Weak

Strengths: Slightly Flexible, Weak Poison, Tough Skin

--------------------------------------------------------

His stats almost confused Lachlan when he saw them. There was absolutely no way this little ball of fat could be strong. Although it still didn't come close to his strength, or the strength of almost every soldier on those ships.

Lachlan got Calamity to go down, rage still burning in his eyes. James immediately got a bad feeling, he knew something had happened. Considering Lachlan was usually a relatively joyful outgoing guy, there shouldn't be much that could piss him off.

"Why'd you kill the children?" Lachlan asked. James immediately realised how serious it had got. Although he knew Josh had a rather strong hatred towards those unique children he didn't know he would go to the extent of killing them.

"Those things can't be considered children," The moment Josh finished his answer he felt a strong force wrap around his neck. Unlike James, Josh had no idea who Lachlan was. He just thought of him as some type of justice warrior.

"What are you doing?" Josh struggled to ask, he felt the air he could breath slowly decreasing. He felt Lachlan's hands around his neck tighten.

"Lachlan you shouldn't do that," James tried to reason with the angered Lachlan but all he received was a look. Lachlan cold eyes filled with hatred. Lachlan's already gone beyond to point of where he could help.

"You don't deserve to be a leader," Lachlan coldly said. Josh's eyes constricted when he heard it, he felt the hands tighten instantly, the force was too much for his strength to handle.

"Lachlan wait!" James shouted as he reached out to stop him.

Edit: Alright, so I'm not sure whether or not I will be editing any other chapters today.

My family and I are driving down to Melbourne for my brother's graduation. We've already booked the hotel and I'm not sure how good the internet will be.

I will still try to edit chapters, they just won't be posted.
