Chapter 962: Chapter 962

"Look, the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dog has grown bigger," Lin Yushi pointed out.

If one carefully observed, indeed, the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dog was slowly growing in size. The rate of growth was not fast, and the maximum size it grew to was not substantial. There was no notification on the interface, indicating that these were fundamental enhancements.

Perhaps this was the special characteristic of the Heavenly Disaster Beasts in this world.

Du You didn’t know, but he understood that it definitely benefited the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dog. The red Heavenly Disaster cloud in the sky completely devoured the green one, and the power it contained became stronger, signaling greater potential.

This was a rare situation where one’s abilities could be enhanced without increasing levels. Du You didn’t know whether this thing would be useful in battle, but as long as it had an effect, it must have some use.

"There’s a reaction," Lin Yucha suddenly said with excitement, pointing ahead.

Du You nodded, "Yes, there is a reaction. I also feel the presence of my advancement materials."

"How can these Heavenly Disaster Beasts be so prolific? Why don’t I have such good luck?" Lin Yushi pouted, feeling depressed. To have encountered two Heavenly Disaster Beasts and not have gained a single advancement material was indeed frustrating.

"To say they are prolific is quite true, after all, the Heavenly Disaster Beasts are enormous, and many parts of their bodies can serve as materials. Furthermore, the impact of the Heavenly Disaster Beasts is significant; they always affect a large area around them, naturally drawing fear or worship from others. The convergence of these emotions forms the essential conditions to create advancement materials."

While explaining, Du You approached the head of the rotting giant bird and dug out its two eyeballs. These eyeballs corresponded to Du You’s Cursed Crow skill. Since advancing to the fourth tier, the Cursed Crow had not been of much use.

Lin Yucha, on the other hand, plucked a special feather that had grown on the giant bird’s head. "Brave Eagle’s Arrow, this skill is related to this long-range attack," she said, very satisfied with her find.

Anyway, landing two advancement materials and the power increase of the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dog was cause for celebration.

"By the way, did we get any loot, anything suitable for me to use?" Lin Yushi asked coyly.

Du You opened the sphere, then said, "There’s something for you, a bow, but it comes with added poison, not as good as what you girls have." Du You took out the rotting longbow he had just acquired.

Seeing the bow that looked like a bone covered in slime, no one showed interest, let alone the fact that the quality of the bow was inferior to what they were already using.

Looking at it, probably only those of the Undead type would choose it, as it was just too ugly.

Du You stowed away the longbow and then had Xiaozi land. "Let’s go. We will reach Yellow Sand City as fast as possible and then survey the nearby situation." He glanced at the corpse of the giant bird and shook his head in disappointment.

The thing looked much like a Zombie; the meat was definitely not edible. Even if it were, no one would choose such matter when not short on food. One could smell the stench from afar.

The Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dog, having bitten the giant bird before, might also need to find an opportunity to clean its mouth.

The group continued their flight, and by dusk, they finally reached Yellow Sand City. The city wasn’t made of yellow sand; perhaps it got its name from the yellowish expanse on its surface.

They quickly arrived at the Professional Association, a larger establishment thanks to the size of Yellow Sand City, thus easier to find and busier. However, the three of them did not reveal their identities, so they didn’t incur any trouble.

After purchasing some information, Du You led the sisters to their inn room to study it.

"There are so many Professionals in Yellow Sand City; there’s no hope for advancement materials. This city’s growth owes much to its Guardian Beast. But from the looks of it, it seems to be an enlarged rooster."

There were pictures in the portfolio, and no matter how Du You looked at it, the creature resembled a large rooster.

"A Guardian Beast, eh? If killed, it would surely drop good items," Lin Yushi suggested.

"Don’t do anything like that; we are not those who would go to any lengths for profit," Lin Yucha scolded, tapping her sister’s head. That kind of deed was unthinkable.

"I was only kidding," Lin Yushi stuck out her tongue and leaned against Du You. Updates are released by 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⁂𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⁂𝘯𝘦𝘵

Du You shook his head and said, "Hunting Guardian Beasts might yield advancement materials, but such actions are sure to have dire consequences. If it were possible, others would have done it by now, not have waited until today."

"Guardian Beasts are said to be capable of suppressing Heavenly Disaster Beasts and are vital for a city’s stability. But there must be many protectors around this Guardian Beast, including those of the fourth tier, and possibly former Professionals who have been assimilated. With unknown methods at their disposal, none of us knows what they’re capable of."

Lin Yushi nodded; she had only been joking before. If a Guardian Beast were hunted, even if the other city inhabitants could handle the Heavenly Disaster Beasts, the lack of a restraining force would lead to frequent disturbances from them.

Under the shadow of such threats, who knew what calamities the city might suffer?

So, for a large city, a Guardian Beast was definitely more than just a symbol or a combatant.

"Looking at the map, there are over thirty recorded sites of Heavenly Disaster Beasts around here. We could select some we need for hunting. But why has no one cleared them out?"

There were indeed many Professionals here, but Du You did not understand why no one had eliminated those Heavenly Disaster Beasts. Each of these beasts, if managed properly, could be considered a mission.

Forget it, if it’s incomprehensible, there’s no use thinking about it. After all, Du You and his group were going to fight.

After studying late into the night, Du You and the sisters rested. The next day, they left Yellow Sand City and flew towards their first target.

"We’ve chosen a Thunderstorm-type Heavenly Disaster Beast this time; maybe it will have materials that suit you,"

Du You said to Lin Yushi, who nodded vigorously. With many of her skills related to Thunder and Lightning, if she still didn’t find what she needed, it would only mean bad luck.

"The Heavenly Disaster Beast over here is said to be a feline, something like a tiger. You don’t have this type among your Summoned Beasts, master," Lin Yucha chimed in.
