Beastmastering: The Best Master Ever! Chapter 257

Chapter 257: One-Star Gray Toad (2) Translator: Henyee Translations       Editor: Henyee Translations Although no one had been able to nurture the Golden Toad until now, the evolved Silver Toad’s strength could not be underestimated. It could defeat many other Fantastic Beasts of the same level. Most importantly, the potential of this egg was S-rank! Any one of these three Fantastic Beasts would cause a huge commotion on the market. The young egg of the Pacifier Dragon from before had already been targeted and snatched away by the Poker Association, drawing out Qin Zhe. If it were these three, the Poker Association might have mobilized many people However, they would not know that Teacher Ping was still raising these three heaven-defying little fellows. Elder Huang stood at the side and began to introduce the young egg of the last One-Star Gray Toad to Chen Qiyue. “The egg of this First Star Grey Toad is amazing. Old Ping and I obtained it in the Illusion Realm.” Elder Huang looked at the egg, his eyes filled with memories. “At that time, we went to explore a ruin to find some information about the ancient golden toad.” “I just didn’t expect to accidentally fall into a trap and be locked in a damp dark cave with him.” “There, we saw a golden toad.” Chen Qiyue’s pupils constricted. “Golden toad?” Elder Huang nodded. “That’s right. It’s the Golden Toad, but it’s not alive. It’s a dead Golden Toad. And this egg was found in its arms.” “When we discovered it, the eggshell was filled with patterns. It was a sealing array.” “It’s also this array that allowed it to live until now.” Chen Qiyue’s eyes lit up as he quickly threw out many questions. “Then the array on its eggshell has disappeared? Teacher Huang, when did you and Teacher Ping discover it? How many years has it been sealed?” Elder Huang patted Chen Qiyue’s shoulder and replied, “We obtained this egg 10 years ago. According to our research, it has probably been sealed for hundreds of years.” “A hundred years?!” Chen Qiyue gasped. “That’s right. It’s all thanks to the Cloud Dragon Ruins this time that Old Ping obtained a formation board.” Elder Huang chuckled and said, “Although that array board was badly damaged and that’s why we were able to take it back, it was also our luck.” “After we took it back, this array board could actually absorb the array on that egg. It also broke its seal and repaired a portion of the array board.” “That’s why this egg has a chance to hatch.” Elder Huang glanced at Chen Qiyue. “I heard that you tried the Blood Contract?” Chen Qiyue nodded. “Yes, I once used the Blood Contract to save the baby egg of a Cloud Emperor Cat.” Hearing his words, Elder Huang nodded. “It’s good that you have experience.” “Because this One-Star Gray Toad’s egg has been sealed for too long, the life force inside has become extremely weak.” “Therefore, when you decide to sign a contract with it, other than activating the Fantastic Beast Array Scroll, you also need to drip your own blood and use the half Blood Contract to help it break out of its shell.” Chen Qiyue nodded seriously. “Since you and Teacher Ping trust me so much, hand this egg to me. I will definitely nurture it into a new seven-star Golden Toad!” Elder Huang opened the cultivation room with a smile and stored the egg of the One-Star Gray Toad in nutrient solution. “It can’t break through the shell with nutrient solution now, but soaking it can provide it with a lot of energy.” “This egg isn’t big. It won’t be eye-catching even if you put it in your backpack. Just remember, you must keep it well. In two months, as long as you can sign the contract, you must sign it,” Elder Huang instructed. “Yes, I understand!” Chen Qiyue took the round petri dish solemnly. In the petri dish the size of a small football, there was the egg of the One-Star Gray Toad. The egg floated in the nutrient solution and looked quite cute. Chen Qiyue took out a hiking bag from his storage equipment. At the bottom, he placed two layers of thick towels and placed the petri dish inside. Then, he wrapped the petri dish with a towel and placed some compressed biscuits, bread, and other food on the towel. Then, Chen Qiyue carried the backpack on his back and smiled at Elder Huang. After walking out of the research institute, Chen Qiyue raised his head and took a deep breath. He sighed at his luck. He had not experienced much danger, but he had actually obtained so many superb Fantastic Beasts. He was really too lucky. He did not forget that there was an egg of the Thunder Cloud Eagle in the living room. One had to know that storage equipment could not store living things. Therefore, it was definitely not safe to carry two eggs with him. Otherwise, why would he not bring the Thunder Cloud Eagle’s young egg? Chen Qiyue thought for a moment and suddenly had an idea. Storage ear studs could not store living creatures, but the Beast Taming Space could store Fantastic Beasts. Chen Qiyue perked up and immediately walked towards his living room. Coincidentally, now that the Sleep of the Full Moon was done, it was time to return to the living room, pack up, and prepare to leave. After returning to the living room, Chen Qiyue immediately summoned the Honey Dragon and placed the eggs of the One-Star Gray Toad and the Thunder Cloud Eagle on the table. “Dragon Baby, I need your help now.” “Honey?” The Honey Dragon looked at the two eggs on the table curiously. She knew about the Thunder Cloud Eagle’s young egg. Wasn’t it from her ruin? But where did the other egg come from? It looked familiar. “Dragon Baby, I need you to put these two eggs in your Flower Sac and bring them into the Beast Taming Space to store them,” Chen Qiyue said seriously to the Honey Dragon. The only thing he wasn’t sure about now was whether Honey Dragon’s Flower Sac could store living creatures. Honey Dragon blinked and nodded. She lowered her head and aimed the flower bud on her head at the two eggs on the table. A ray of light came from the opening of the flower bud. Then, the two eggs were put away. Seeing this, Chen Qiyue was delighted and put the Honey Dragon into the Beast Taming Space. In fact, he had already asked Honey Dragon to bring everything that could be brought in. Including sofas, tables, stools, and so on. After all, the Honey Dragon still had to write down the knowledge she knew. After all, she was a dragon. She could not write quickly with her tail holding a pen. Not to mention that the Cloud Dragon Ruins was so huge. The knowledge inside was simply an ocean. Of course, other than those items, most of them were nutritional meals and food like tree fruits. Before the equipment was sent to Jun Shenyun, Chen Qiyue had already started making nutritional meals for his Fantastic Beasts. After participating in the selection, he would definitely not have time to cook nutritional meals. However, the training of the Fantastic Beasts would definitely not be lacking. Therefore, it was necessary to prepare nutritional meals in advance. Chen Qiyue checked if he had missed anything. After placing the commonly used items, as well as some supplementary items, food, and water in the storage earring, Chen Qiyue checked the living room again to make sure that there was nothing missing before leaving. Of course, before leaving the Feeding Base, he also went to the library. With the authority of Pingyu Lan and Elder Huang, he borrowed 500 books and placed them in a newly bought storage ring. He had to read books at all times, so Chen Qiyue decided to use the formula of a special nutritional meal, plus 20 million yuan, to exchange for a 30-cubic-meter storage ring in the base. As a Feeder in the base, he could exchange for some relatively rare equipment outside first. This 30-cubic-meter storage ring was the same as the storage earring. It was not divided into slots, but a cube of 5 meters long, 3 meters wide, and 2 meters tall. Of course, other than the borrowed books, there were also some research and learning supplies in the extra space. After all the preparations were done, Chen Qiyue looked at the time. In fact, it had only been a day and a half since he sent the Fat-Eyed Worm to the hospital. It was less than two days. In fact, he still had three and a half days. However, it would take two days to set off to the gathering place. He still had one and a half days to do his own things. Chen Qiyue touched his chin. He had one and a half days of free time. Should he go to the venue to see Kiddo and other pets win the championship? At this moment, the phone in his pocket rang. Chen Qiyue subconsciously took out his phone and answered, “Hello?” “Oh no, Xiao Cheng, come quickly.. That Fat-Eyed Worm is gone!”
