Chapter 399: Chapter 31: Battle Pet Duel!? Seeing Daphneâs confused expressions, Jia Yan was quite pleased. This womanâs omniscience had always been bothering him. If it werenât for things she didnât know at this moment, he would almost believe there was nothing she didnât know about!
Actually, Jia Yanâs judgment about Daphne had a slight error. He had assumed that this exiled woman was of low status and not powerful. But the actual situation differed from what he thought. Daphne, a crystallization of high-end technology from the Empire 300 years ago, had managed to perfectly survive through three centuries and was beyond the reach of ordinary aliens.
After so many years, this womanâs reading quantity was terrifying. Coupled with her persistent training of Brainwave Power, even within the actual âEmpireâ civilization, she was a formidable character!
While gradually understanding the affairs of the planet, Jia Yan also started to learn the Auster language slowly from Daphne!
In fact, Jia Yan was not unfamiliar with the Auster language. In his spacecraft, Jia Yan had studied the languages in the system several times. Although he hadnât achieved much, he already had a certain understanding of the structure of the language system!
Now, thanks to a little guidance from Daphne, some problems that had puzzled him for a long time were solved.
Having broken through the first barrier, some things became incredibly simple, as if the clouds parting to reveal the moon!
"So thatâs it! The meaning of that sentence in the spacecraft...itâs booting up! And the first thing Daphne said to that man... it means âLordâ!" Jia Yanâs memory was astonishing. He hadnât recorded everything Daphne had said, but he could guarantee it was more or less accurate. Therefore, his previous conversations with her served as a comparison!
If Daphne knew about Big Mosquitoâs learning efficiency, would she exclaim âTop Studentâ?! Of course, itâs more likely that her learning efficiency wasnât any worse than Big Mosquitoâs!
"Lord, you %%#@@&&&!!"
Just when the two were puzzled about their subsequent actions, a voice suddenly appeared behind them!
Jia Yan understood the words âLordâ and âyouâ from the language system he had previously learned.
They saw a charred, black creature panting heavily, using its eight limbs to run as fast as it could towards Jia Yan and Daphne!
Jia Yan and Daphne were naturally tense. As individuals with special statuses, they were already eye-catching. If someone looking for trouble or something were to approach them now, their situation would become more dangerous.
From the strange gleam in his Compound Eyes, Jia Yan looked at the creature and finally recognized it as the weird lifeform that had ridden on the Three-headed Monster when he was getting his identity. But he didnât realize that this creature could run so fast!
Then, Jia Yan and Daphne stood by the road and began to converse.
As vehicles similar to motorcycles on Earth passed by, some people stopped in surprise as they drove past Big Mosquitoâs massive body, then continued on their way.
Jia Yan noticed Daphne seemed to have some intentions while talking to the creature!
Soon, the charred, black creature led the way in front, and Daphne signaled Jia Yan to follow her using her Brainwave Power.
"He told me thereâs a place thatâs very suitable for us to stay temporarily," Daphne explained to Jia Yan on the way.
"But thereâs one condition, you need to replace his Battle Pet and participate in a Battle Pet fight!"
What?!
Hearing this, a surge of anger flashed in Jia Yanâs heart!
He suddenly tightened the Brainwave Power tied around Daphneâs neck, causing her face to instantly turn pale!
"I told you, I came here to find a way to restore my combat power, not to participate in any Battle Pet fight! If youâre so eager to fight, go ahead and do it yourself. But before that happens, I might just twist your head off first!"
Jia Yan fiercely controlled his Brainwave Power, twisting it ruthlessly, and a strange, twisted angle appeared in Daphneâs neck!
A bloodthirsty emotion flickered in Jia Yanâs heart. He had spared her several times for the information she had brought since she had arrived on this so-called Alien planet. But now, without his consent, she had decided to join what seemed to be a Battle Pet fight along with some charred creature?
This only intensified Jia Yanâs urge to kill her!
"Donât... donât panic, Iâm not trying to harm you." Daphne struggled, seemingly sensing Jia Yanâs murderous intent. She gritted her teeth, a force of Brainwave Power equal in strength blocking the Brainwave Power that Jia Yan had around her neck, allowing her a space for Brainwave Transmission!
A sinister look emerged in Big Mosquitoâs Compound Eyes. If it werenât for the hustle and bustle on the streets, he mightâve killed her right then and there!
"I said I wouldnât cause you trouble within a month, and I keep my word!" Daphneâs fingertips continued to soften at the cut on her neck, where a fresh streak of blood was extremely conspicuous.
The woman didnât seem to be affected by her previously heavy injuries, which had mostly healed considerably.
Feeling the strength of her struggle against his Brainwave Power, Jia Yan felt a slight chill in his heart. Only then did he discover that she had recovered a considerable amount of combat power!
"I know you want to recover your combat power, but itâs impossible to find a remedy by wandering aimlessly in the city. This man is a Battle Pet expert. He told me that he has raised seventy or eighty Battle Pets, some of which have peculiar food and energy sources. I thought that you might be able to find a way to restore your combat power from their food, so I agreed to his terms. Otherwise, why would I accept his request!"
"Moreover, do you think you can easily find an suitable place for recuperation in this large city with your current physique?"
After Daphneâs explanation, the killing intent in Jia Yanâs eyes slightly subsided.
If this were truly the case, he had misjudged her!
However, he wondered how much of what Daphne said was true and how much was false. Once bitten by the snake, one is scared of the well rope for a decade. Jia Yan had been deceived by this woman before, so how could he fully trust her now!
Jia Yan continued to walk forward. He didnât believe Daphneâs words, but that didnât stop him from being slightly moved by them. Her suggestion was quite reasonable, if the creature with half-charred skin really did have many Battle Pets. Then, perhaps, he might be able to find a comparable energy source from them!
Thatâs why he came to this city, isnât it!
He wouldnât be able to find these resources in the wastelands.
"Over this period of time, Daphne couldnât have possibly conspired with this creature, could she? Even if she did have plans, as long as thereâs no major ambushing force waiting for me, I believe I can escape this place easily!"
After these thoughts, Jia Yanâs steps became more natural.
Daphne rode on Big Mosquitoâs body, slightly annoyed. She had truly been considering Big Mosquitoâs interests this time, but never did she expect the Giant Mosquito to take her kindness for granted, almost strangling her to death!
Everything that had happened behind them unfolded within a fraction of a second. The charred-looking creature leading the way in front of them seemed completely unaware!
The creatureâs residence was located at the edge of the Outer City. The houses were much sparser in the suburbs!
Unique autos were streaking on the roads and the sky was no longer filled with small cars flying about.
"Those vehicles are all going to other cities for trade. This planet, academically referred to as the Yellow Rim Star by the Auster people, has seven similarly large cities. Only within these cities can one avoid the repercussions of war!" (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to qidian.com to vote and recommend, your support is my greatest motivation.
