212: Chapter 212 Obtaining Information on Dragon Creatures
On the outskirts of Jianghai City, Divine Phoenix Mountain.
A giant bird of brilliant fiery red, bathed in sunlight, stood atop the mountain peak. The sunlight shone on its massive body, reflecting bright sparks of fire, interspersed with streaks of dazzling, sharp light.
"Prompt: The Supreme Aura Cells in your body sense the energy in the sunlight... beginning to operate..."
"Prompt: After one day of operation of the Thunder-Fire Breathing Technique (Perfection) in your body, your internal spiritual energy has received a slight boost!"
"Prompt: After a night of rest, the experience points of your internal Mental Energy have increased to some extent!"
"Prompt: Your internal Mental Energy has sensed the fear from the 150,000 beasts in your territory and the 500,000 people in Jianghai City; experience points have significantly increased!"
"Prompt: Through the strengthening of the Lightning Energy and fire energy within your body, your physical fitness has improved to some extent!"
"Prompt: The Lightning Energy in your body has absorbed electricity from the surrounding environment and has been strengthened!"
"Prompt: The fire energy in your body has absorbed solar energy and has been strengthened!"
The mechanical system prompts continued to echo in Ye Yang's mind as usual.
His golden pupils gazed into the distance, a flicker of doubt passing through them.
"What on earth is Jianghai City doing? To spend so much manpower and resources to construct a military defensive line in that area..."
Over the past few days, Ye Yang noticed an increase in vehicles on the Jianghai City roads. They were clearly official Jianghai City vehicles, transporting large amounts of construction materials, escorted by the military.
However, Ye Yang didn't pay much attention to it; after all, that area did not belong to his territory.
His territory covered an area of several hundred square kilometers, which translated to a length and width of about twenty to thirty kilometers, completely within his mental perception.
Since the Jianghai City troops constructing the defensive line were over a hundred kilometers away, he didn't need to worry about that aspect of his territory at all.
What Ye Yang cared about was the purpose of the Jianghai City troops...
"This defensive line isn't between Divine Phoenix Mountain and Jianghai City, meaning it can't be for defending against me. Jianghai City currently has no way to defend against an aerial creature of my evolutionary level anyway..."
"So, Jianghai City is guarding against something else..."
He pondered. For Jianghai City to act so swiftly, the severity of the matter must be great; it might even pose a threat to him.
After thinking for a while, he still couldn't figure it out.
He turned and spoke to those behind him.
"Ah Li, go and call that liaison from Jianghai City over for me."
"Chirp chirp... Okay, Big Brother!"
...
Following Little White Fox Ah Li's phone call, the silhouette of a helicopter appeared in the sky over an hour later.
Compared to Ye Yang, the helicopter looked like a feeble bamboo dragonfly as it wobbled and landed on the peak of Divine Phoenix Mountain.
Yu Weiyue walked toward Ye Yang with her slender legs trembling, a forced smile on her exquisitely made-up face.
"Lord Divine Phoenix, may I ask why you have summoned me here?"
Ye Yang spoke directly, voicing the doubt in his heart.
"I want to ask you, what major event has happened in your Jianghai City recently?"
"A major event? Let me think..." Upon hearing Ye Yang's majestic and clear voice, Yu Weiyue fell into thought, but she still looked bewildered.
"Lord Divine Phoenix, there hasn't been anything. Nothing important has happened in our Jianghai City for several months..."
"Do you take me for a blind man? Your Jianghai City troops have already built a defensive line a hundred kilometers away. Tell me the reason, or I will personally enter Jianghai City and ask the Mayor to his face!"
Yu Weiyue looked up at those golden pupils, which were like the world's most precious works of art, revealing a terrifying and soul-snatching cold light...
She immediately lowered her head. "Lord Divine Phoenix... please wait a moment. I'll make a call to ask my superiors..."
Ye Yang lowered his gaze, giving his tacit consent because he felt that this human woman wasn't lying to him; perhaps she just didn't know.
In fact, Yu Weiyue really didn't know, because only the top few leaders of Jianghai City had the right to know the intelligence about the mythical creature, the Dragon, reported by the elite squad.
The call was quickly connected. Mayor Lin knew he couldn't hide it from the highly intelligent Ye Yang, or perhaps he feared Ye Yang would find out and cause a ruckus in Jianghai City, so he directly told Yu Weiyue about the mythical creature, the Dragon.
"What? A dragon!"
Yu Weiyue cried out in surprise, her pretty face full of disbelief!
This cry of surprise also caught the attention of Ye Yang, Little White Fox Ah Li, and Xiong Er on the mountain peak.
When they heard the word "Dragon," a hint of fear appeared in the eyes of both Little White Fox Ah Li and Xiong Er. Even Ye Yang felt a surge of dread from deep within his body.
"A dragon? Is such a creature... truly something that can appear on Blue Star at this time?"
While Ye Yang was shocked and confused, Yu Weiyue, having hung up the phone, walked up to him.
Her pretty face was still shaken. "Lord Divine Phoenix, our Mayor Lin asked me to convey his apologies. So many things have happened recently that he had to handle personally, causing him to forget to notify you of this major news. He hopes you can forgive him..."
A look of sarcasm appeared in Ye Yang's eyes.
Forgotten? Not necessarily. Although according to the promise made between Mayor Lin and him, he wouldn't go to Jianghai City, and Jianghai City was supposed to proactively provide him with intelligence on various major events on Blue Star.
"It seems I need to find an opportunity to give Jianghai City's Mayor Lin a warning; otherwise, he'll really think my temper as an Ancient Creature is made of clay..."
However, the important thing right now was the intelligence about the "Dragon."
Yu Weiyue apologized and gave a symbolic bow before continuing.
"Actually, the intelligence about the mythical creature, the Dragon, is also related to you, Lord Divine Phoenix..."
"Hmm?!"
"Not long ago, Lord Divine Phoenix left Divine Phoenix Mountain for the Qinling Mountains. On your return, you happened to pass the Elite Exploration Squad sent by Jianghai City to the Qinling Mountains. Shortly after you left, perhaps just a few hours later..."
"The members of the elite squad saw the silhouette of a dragon rushing through the sky. According to Mayor Lin's speculation, that black dragon in the dark clouds is very likely coming for Lord Divine Phoenix..."
After saying this, Yu Weiyue stared with her large, beautiful eyes in confusion at the Ancient Divine Phoenix before her, which was overflowing with fiery colors. Knowing of the existence of the mythical creature Dragon, she was now full of shock while also wondering why the Ancient Divine Phoenix would be targeted by a mythical creature Dragon.
However, her expectations were destined to be disappointed.
"The more a weak creature knows, the faster it dies."
Under the gaze of Ye Yang's golden phoenix eyes, Yu Weiyue had no choice but to leave the mountain peak by helicopter.
Then, Ye Yang turned to ask the dazed Little White Fox Ah Li.
"Ah Li, you said that powerful creatures with high evolutionary levels are all affected by the concentration of spiritual energy in the environment. If the humans' intelligence is true, will that dragon emerge from the Qinling Mountains and come here?"
Little White Fox Ah Li came to her senses, tilted her head, and thought for a long time before speaking in her soft, sweet voice.
"Chirp chirp... That's right. Spiritual energy concentration is very important for creatures with high evolutionary levels..."
"Chirp chirp... But some creatures are special themselves... and can remain unaffected..."
"Chirp chirp... They can also use some special means..."
"But don't worry, Big Brother. The possibility of that is still very low... Unless you've stolen something from a petty creature like a dragon, a lazy creature like that wouldn't... pay the price... to come looking for you..."
