Beast Taming: I'm Really Just a Forest Ranger
Chapter 664 - 295: Advisor Chen Has Already Secured the Championship
The sunshine pierced through the thick clouds like a sharp sword, its gentle rays dispersing the dense mist hanging over Qinling, enveloping the vast snowy plains and bare forests.
It was a great day for basking in the sun.
Run Run Duck wholeheartedly agreed.
In the face of such good weather, Run Run Duck only wished to lie comfortably on a large stone, letting the gentle sunlight caress every part of its body, allowing the warmest rays to seep inside.
But today was a special day.
It had no choice but to join its friends at the farm’s entrance, squatting there waiting for Cola to pass by.
Once the contestants finished their sleds, they would pass through the farm’s entrance and then head deep into Qinling.
Since both the farmer and Cola were participating in today’s race, all the members of the farm naturally had to stand by the gate to cheer for them.
"Ka..."
Iron Head looked around, seeing all its little friends gathered nearby, its eyes showing a complex expression, feeling very peculiar.
It was the first time so many friends had accompanied it to guard the gate.
"Dian Dian..."
The Electric Flying Cat curled up in a corner, its furry coat exposed, tears of drowsiness in its eyes, yawning from time to time.
"Roar..."
The Fallen Meteor Horned Beast stood impassively, silently moving forward a few steps, using its massive body to shield its friends from the wind and snow, while staring straight ahead, waiting for Cola to appear.
Tomorrow’s speed race would have it competing, so the Fallen Meteor Horned Beast prepared to watch today’s competition thoroughly, both to observe the opponents and to note any unexpected situations that might arise during the race.
"Ying ying ying..."
Sprite was frolicking in the snowy field, accompanied by two Little Wood Spirit Rats, leaving a trail of small footprints on the white ground.
"Ying."
After playing for a long time, Sprite dragged its tired body back to its senior Run Run Duck, drooping its head, staring blankly at the road ahead.
When would the boss show up?
Apart from this, the Scarface Rat and Bean Chicken were also in the cheering squad, standing neatly in a row, looking like finely crafted little dolls.
"Ga..."
Run Run Duck also drooped its head, yawning, staring dazedly ahead.
Where was Cola?
As time slowly passed and the sun gradually rose, the sunshine illuminating the farm would begin to shift.
Each time the sunlight shifted outward, slowly moving away from the farm gate, the drowsy Run Run Duck would quietly move forward, ensuring its body remained bathed in sunlight at all times.
It left the shadow, moving towards the light.
However, the Electric Flying Cat was pleased to see this, curling up in the shadowy corner, sleeping peacefully.
After a long while, Cola still hadn’t appeared, yet Run Run Duck was already standing in the middle of the road.
At the same time,
the fun race was in full swing.
Spark flapped its wings silently in mid-air, its deep golden-red eyes gazing at the contestants and Pet Beasts below, while vigilantly watching the surroundings to prevent any unexpected incidents.
As one of the strongest Pet Beasts in Xuanhe Village and the entire Qin Province, Spark would not participate in the riding competition this time.
This time it was a land mount Pet Beast race, temporarily not involving aerial mounts.
But as Chen Yuan’s strongest Pet Beast, it held an important position in this event—as the chief of the security system, remaining constantly alert to prevent anything that might impact the competition from emerging.
Whether it was malevolent Beastmasters or unintentionally intruding wild Pet Beasts, they were all Spark’s targets for repelling.
Spark was the most crucial element in ensuring the smooth progression of the riding competition.
As long as this task was completed perfectly, Chen Yuan, as Spark’s Beastmaster, would rightfully receive a substantial Contribution Value.
It wasn’t really that he coveted this generous Contribution Value, but as a villager of Xuanhe Village, he ought to contribute his efforts to such an important event.
"Awooo!"
Cola looked up at a tree that wasn’t particularly thick, then its eyes tightened, and it let out a roar, sending several sharp Wind Blades howling out, striking the center of the trunk and cutting it in half.
The seemingly solid trunk immediately split in two, crashing to the ground with a booming sound, sending snow flying into the air.
"The kid has grown up..."
Seeing Cola effortlessly cut down a tree, the deep eyes of Chen Yuan reflected scenes from the past.
Back when it had just evolved into a Gale Hunting Dog, it used Wind Blade but couldn’t hit the trunk. That little guy had unknowingly grown into a majestic figure, capable of sending countless Pet Beasts cowering in fear with just a roar.
When the trunk hit the ground, without needing Chen Yuan’s command, Cola swiftly moved forward and used its sharp claws to cut it into several neat wooden boards.
Though Cola’s close combat ability couldn’t match Iron Head, and its claw sharpness and strength were far inferior, cutting it neatly into sled-making boards was not difficult given its robust physique.
To prepare for this race, Chen Yuan and the little ones had made sleds several times. While they couldn’t claim to be experienced, they had gained some insights.
"Awo~"
Facing the official race, Cola was no longer its usual playful and mischievous self. Its face was serious, with no hint of a smile, its eyes bright as it earnestly cut the boards.
The sled boards might not have to be beautiful or tidy, but they certainly had to be sturdy enough to not break from bumps and collisions.
Cola didn’t want the sled to malfunction due to its carelessness, affecting the race and incurring its master’s reprimand.
Though Cola’s precision and speed in cutting the boards couldn’t match Iron Head, it still stood out among the other Pet Beasts.
In no time, several wooden pieces were laid out before Chen Yuan, and Cola grinned, showing its teeth: "Awoo!"
