Global Beast Mastery: Only I Can See the Hints

“Can you be more specific? Celestial City isn’t small, so where exactly in Celestial City is it?” Charles wanted to know more details.

Finn shook his head, indicating that he wasn’t sure either. It seemed like it hadn’t been decided yet.

Charles thought for a moment. It seemed that the relevant information would have to wait until later to be clarified. However, there were both advantages and disadvantages to Celestial City being the location.

On the positive side, if the battle between the geniuses of Genosha and Kingston was held in Celestial City, he could take the opportunity to investigate the situation regarding the Lnfinity Isles. Plus, after the battle, he would be able to quickly reach the Lnfinity Isles.

On the downside, there was a chance that Celestial City would become chaotic. The situation regarding the mystical beasts would definitely attract many Beast Masters. Those who were eligible were likely to be strong, and if the news about the suspected divine beasts spread widely, it would cause a huge stir. Even if Beast Masters of the sixth rank or higher couldn’t enter, the powerful ones would still appear to support the younger talents they were connected to, especially those with the potential to claim the divine beasts’ power.

“I guess I’ll just have to take it one step at a time. Now that the mystical beasts have all leveled up, the next thing to do is raise Max’s level and work on my own strength to see if I can break through to the fifth level Beast Master stage.” After Finn and the others left, Charles stayed in the café, starting to think about what he should do next.

First, the most important task was to level up his mystical beasts and try to break through to the fifth level Beast Master rank. Once he reached fifth level, not only would his strength improve, but he would also be able to form another mystical beast contract. Actually, Charles was thinking that if he reached the site of the divine beast’s fall, he might have a chance to contract that divine beast or a mystical beast that had absorbed the divine beast’s energy.

For his fifth mystical beast, Charles was hoping it would be a light attribute beast, and the news about the Lnfinity Isles had given him a possibility. The only thing he didn’t know was how many talented Beast Masters would show up for the events there, especially those from Central City’s [Ranking of the Heavenly Prodigies]. These geniuses, being sixth level Beast Masters, would be at their peak.

“Also, what Cuny mentioned the geniuses who have awakened from slumber shouldn’t their Beast Master level be higher? There shouldn’t be too many of those kinds of geniuses, right?” Charles thought to himself.

In fact, he was quite eager to meet these geniuses. Although his Beast Master level might be lower than theirs, that didn’t stop him from wanting to fight them.

The legendary blacksmith giant Bellamy’s list for the enhancement of the [black gold long knife] contained metals of golden quality, which were very hard to find, especially in a small place like Genosha. If only he could bring the golden quality [black gold long knife] with him, he could compete with those geniuses, bridging the gap in Beast Master rank and mystical beast strength.

Then, Charles thought he should see if he could speed up Mia’s growth, because the information prompt showed:

[Wind and Moon Spirit Falcon]

[Name]: Mia

[Attribute]: Wind

[Level]: Lv30

[Quality]: Diamond

[Skills]: [Moon Riding Wind], [Sharp Claw Strike], [Frenzy Gale Slash]

[Weaknesses]: Abdomen / Thunder Attribute

[Evolution]: 4 Routes

[Description]: This Wind and Moon Spirit Falcon is nearing its youth phase. As it continues to grow, it will learn a new skill, which will further enhance its power. Don’t forget to keep it in a good mood with fine wine.

The description mentioned that as Mia continued to grow, it would learn a new skill, further boosting its strength.

“Little by little. In the evening, I’ll head over to Teacher Colton’s place and see if I can get the last piece of the [Map Fragments].”

Charles wanted to know what would happen once all the [Map Fragments] were collected. Maybe he would gain more useful information, which could give him an advantage when exploring the Lnfinity Isles Forest.

Afterward, Charles left the café and went back to his training at Cyber Academy. He had thought that Nathaniel might call him for training, but Nathaniel didn’t show up until the evening.

Nathaniel probably thought that letting Charles train on his own would be more effective.

After a light dinner, Charles made his way to the bamboo forest at Cyber Academy, standing in front of Teacher Colton’s wooden cabin.

Charles felt a bit guilty. As a master level alchemist and Colton’s apprentice, he had completely neglected his alchemy practice recently, always busy focusing on his Beast Master training to improve his Beast Master abilities.

“I wonder if Teacher Colton will be mad at me,” Charles muttered quietly.

Soon, a voice came from inside the cabin: “Mad? Mad about what? You finally remembered this old man, huh?”

Colton walked out of the cabin and looked at Charles, asking with concern, “So, how did it go? Things go smoothly? Is the Haunted Marsh much better than the Abyssal Depths?”

Charles nodded and replied, “Things went smoothly. All the mystical beasts have completed their promotion. The talented Beast Masters in the Haunted Marsh are indeed far superior to those in the Abyssal Depths, and their strength is much higher.”

Colton sighed and said, “Not just that, even the alchemists in the Haunted Marsh are the same. If you have time in the future, you should visit the Alchemist Guild in Central City. I’ll give you a letter of recommendation, and they’ll take care of you there.”

“A letter of recommendation?” Charles asked, curious.

“Your teacher also has an alchemy teacher, though I haven’t seen him in a long time. He’s probably angry with me now. Sigh. But I found you, a talent for alchemy, so maybe it’ll soften his temper a bit,” Colton said with a smile.

“My teacher is a legendary level alchemist,” Colton continued, “but unfortunately, I made some mistakes back then, and I’m no longer qualified to be his apprentice. But you don’t need to worry. My teacher is a very good person, and when the time comes, you can study alchemy under him.”

Charles nodded. It seemed that both Teacher Ezra and Teacher Colton had their own stories. However, neither of them seemed eager to talk about it. There must have been many regrets involved. It was also possible that they felt Charles wasn’t yet suitable for involving himself in matters of their older generation.

“By the way, this is the miracle drug I’ve been refining recently. They’re all orange quality. Take them. I can’t give you much, but as far as miracle drugs go, I can definitely provide you plenty!” Colton said, taking out a dozen or so bottles of miracle drugs emitting a faint orange glow and handing them to Charles.

Charles took a quick glance at the bottles. Most of them were ones he had seen before, but there were a few that were new to him.

The following information prompt appeared for the bottles:

[Gold Attribute Mystical Beast Enhancement Elixir (Orange Quality)]: A special miracle drug made from the beast core of high tier gold attribute mystical beasts, combined with other gold attribute alchemy materials. It can be consumed by gold attribute mystical beasts to greatly enhance their defense and recovery abilities in a short period of time.

[Wind Attribute Mystical Beast Enhancement Elixir (Orange Quality)]: A special miracle drug made from the beast core of high tier wind attribute mystical beasts, combined with other wind attribute alchemy materials. It can be consumed by wind attribute mystical beasts to greatly enhance their speed and attack power in a short period of time.

[Mystical Beast Rapid Growth Miracle Drug (Orange Quality)]: Made from the flesh and blood of high tier mystical beasts, as well as various rare alchemy materials. This drug accelerates the growth of mystical beasts, meeting all of their growth needs. It’s suitable for rapidly cultivating mystical beasts and enhancing their power.

[Paralysis Miracle Drug (Orange Quality)]: Made from the toxin sacs of poisonous mystical beasts, this drug can be applied to weapons. When used to attack an enemy, it briefly paralyzes them. It’s effective on humans below the 8th level of Beast Master and mystical beasts below level 70.

…

Charles stared at the miracle drugs in his hands, unsure of what to say. He had come with the intention of collecting all the [Map Fragments], but he hadn’t expected Teacher Colton to give him so many orange quality miracle drugs right away.

And coincidentally, the [Mystical Beast Rapid Growth Miracle Drug] could accelerate Mia’s growth, allowing her to learn a new skill.

“I’ll give you a brief explanation of the effects of these miracle drugs,” Colton said. “If it weren’t for the difficulty in finding high tier beast cores with both ice and fire attributes, or the high tier dark attribute beast cores, I could have made more miracle drugs suitable for your mystical beasts.”

Charles quickly replied, “This is more than enough, Teacher. With these miracle drugs, my rate of improvement will be even faster!”

“That’s good to hear. By the way, I have one more thing for you. I don’t have any use for it, so you might as well take it,” Colton said as he handed Charles something.

Charles took a look at it, and it was the final piece of the [Map Fragments] that he had been missing. Just earlier, he had been wondering how to ask Teacher Colton about it, but now Colton had directly handed it to him!

“Teacher, this…” Charles slowly began to speak.

“What’s this? Although I’m not sure what it’s for, if you need it, you must have already gathered the other fragments, right? I asked some friends about the remaining fragments before, but none of them knew where they were. Otherwise, I would have helped you collect them all,” Colton said with a hint of regret.

Charles quickly shook his head and replied, “Teacher, I already have two fragments. This is the last one.”

Now, with all three [Map Fragments] in his possession, Charles would finally be able to discover what useful things would come from collecting all the fragments.
