39: Chapter 39 Vegetarian?

"Roar roar~"

...

Early in the morning, Lu Hu woke up groggily and came to the courtyard. The 'Godzilla' tied up by a huge iron chain immediately got up, roaring and shouting at Lu Hu, extremely irritable.

"Roar~" (What are you yelling about!)

Lu Hu yelled back at it, annoyed. This guy had been making a racket all night, preventing him from getting a good sleep.

Lu Hu walked forward, ignoring the way 'Godzilla' bared its teeth. Looking at the scraps of seaweed left on the ground, a complex look appeared in Lu Hu's eyes.

Last night, while drinking with Black Bull and Golden Eagle, Black Bull had noticed 'Godzilla'. Knowing Lu Hu wanted to raise it, Black Bull didn't advise against it but nodded, saying it was nice, and gave Lu Hu an iron chain.

This Crimson Molten Beast could be raised; Black Bull recognized the species of 'Godzilla'.

Lu Hu was immediately interested. His 'Godzilla' had rough, tough skin, sharp claws, a fierce appearance, and a row of steel-like spikes on its back—it looked like a prehistoric beast at first glance.

As it turned out, Black Bull said this thing was called a Marine Iguana. Don't look at it as having such an aggressive appearance; in reality, it was a vegetarian with a docile personality. Even if it became a Crimson Molten Beast, it wouldn't have much aggression.

Don't look at how irritable it is now; that might be because it ate blood essence in the sea. Once the blood essence is digested, it will return to its original personality.

Are you kidding me!

Lu Hu didn't believe it, so he dug up a pile of seaweed overnight to verify.

Now the result was out!

"Ao roar~" (You really are a vegetarian!)

Lu Hu was speechless. He had hoped to raise a real Godzilla that could fire atomic breath.

Now, what a terrible thing. It looks so badass, yet it goes off to eat vegetables.

You're really doing a disservice to your looks.

Actually, thinking about it, perhaps it was only because it was a vegetarian that it could survive. At over twenty meters tall, it was at the very bottom among the Crimson Molten Beasts. If it were a meat-eater, it would have been beaten to death long ago fighting with other Crimson Molten Beasts.

It was precisely because it was a vegetarian that it could skulk in the corners, silently munching on seaweed to grow!

Sigh~~ I collected so much Crimson Molten Beast meat yesterday, all prepared as your rations, and now they are useless.

If I bring it back, will it eat his territory bald?

Should I still raise this thing?

Lu Hu worried in the courtyard.

Godzilla was still roaring and shouting.

"Is it hungry?"

Wu Wen had also gotten up early and was stewing Crimson Molten Beast soup in the courtyard. He casually cut off a large piece of meat and placed it in front of 'Godzilla'.

"Roar roar~~"

'Godzilla' roared. Upon seeing the meat, it lowered its head to sniff it, licked it twice, then pushed the meat away.

"It really is a vegetarian!"

Wu Wen was amazed. It was a vegetarian, yet it bit his hook yesterday.

Was it because it was stupid?

Wu Wen picked up the meat. He didn't mind that 'Godzilla' had licked it; he washed it and ate it.

Crimson Molten Beast meat couldn't be wasted.

"Roar~~ Roar roar"

Godzilla was still roaring. It was truly hungry, but it wanted to eat seaweed.

'You won't even eat meat when it's placed in front of you. You're really hopeless.'

Lu Hu cursed inwardly. He thought for a moment and said to Wu Wen,

"Ao roar~" (Feed it blood)

Yesterday, Wu Wen had brought back three Crimson Molten Beasts. He hadn't minded the leftover blood and had collected it.

'Godzilla' drank blood essence, so it should drink Crimson Molten Beast blood too.

When Wu Wen brought out the blood, Godzilla sniffed it, then buried its head and started drinking the Crimson Molten blood.

That's fine. At least it can drink blood, so it's not a complete vegetarian.

Lu Hu still decided to raise this guy. He left Ice Island and dove to the seabed to harvest seaweed. There was no other way—'Godzilla' was so large that if he didn't prepare grass feed, the little bit of grass at home would be eaten bald by it.

It was a good thing the system backpack could hold miscellaneous items, otherwise raising it would be a real hassle.

Rumble!

The Rongxiao hadn't returned to the seabed yet. Its two tentacles, which had been broken by the Dragon Kun, hadn't grown back; it was in an injured state. Yet, instead of going back to recuperate, it was wandering everywhere in the sea.

'Is it really because of that Whale Monster?'

Lu Hu was harvesting seaweed on the seabed, watching the scene of the Rongxiao raging from afar. It had been making a racket for a whole day, and the Rongxiao hadn't stopped.

Was that Whale Monster so important to the Rongxiao?

It was still looking for it even after it was dead.

Lu Hu even wanted to take the Whale Monster out to take a good look, but Lu Hu only thought about it.

He noticed that the Rongxiao could emit a special wave to sense the surrounding environment and creatures. If he really took the Whale Monster out, with it being so close, he would definitely be discovered by the Rongxiao.

Before leaving the Cold Sea, he couldn't take out the Whale Monster.

Lu Hu didn't want to provoke the Rongxiao, so he honestly cut seaweed. Because of the Rongxiao, the seabed was very quiet; no creatures came out to wander.

Lu Hu cut seaweed very smoothly. Once he had cut enough, he stopped and returned to Ice Island.

On Ice Island, all the Grandmasters were no longer going out. The atmosphere was quite low; very few people had caught a Crimson Molten Beast early like Yu De.

Most had no harvest at all. With the Rongxiao like this this year, they had no way to capture Crimson Molten Beasts.

Wu Wen was repairing the mithril fishing net in the courtyard. Seeing Lu Hu return, he hurriedly said,

"Brother Tiger, we can't catch Crimson Molten Beasts for the time being. We plan to go to the edge to cast nets and catch Crimson Molten Fish after the Rongxiao calms down. Do you want to go see?"

With the Rongxiao making such a fuss, all the Crimson Molten Beasts were shivering in their respective nests and not coming out, making them very hard to capture.

The Grandmasters of the Grandmaster Village had discussed and were planning to catch Crimson Molten Fish.

"Ao~" (Sure!)

Lu Hu nodded. Wu Wen had already mentioned catching Crimson Molten Fish many times. At this time, not only humans but other beasts would also bring their respective clans to enjoy this feast together.

"Moo~"

Not long after Lu Hu returned, Black Bull also came over carrying an extra thick piece of timber, and Golden Eagle was clutching huge bones.

When they were drinking last night, Lu Hu had also wanted to build a house in the Grandmaster Village. He would come to this place in the future, so he couldn't always live in Wu Wen's house. Although Wu Wen didn't mind, it was ultimately more comfortable to have his own nest!

Upon learning this, Black Bull and Golden Eagle both offered to help. The timber and bones were not ordinary varieties and could be used to build a house.

Lu Hu didn't refuse their kindness; he was indeed short of materials. As for how to thank the two beasts, he had an idea: catch a Grandmaster-level Crimson Molten Beast and eat it tonight.

"Ao~" (Thanks a lot, don't leave tonight, I'm treating you to a meal!)

"Moo moo~!" (That's great, I have wine!)

"Chirp chirp~" (I'm in charge of eating!)
