My Pet Beast is Super Fearsome
Chapter 341 - Chapter 341 Chapter 340 Guardian Spirit (45)

Chapter 341: Chapter 340: Guardian Spirit (4/5) Chapter 341: Chapter 340: Guardian Spirit (4/5) While everyone else’s attention was on the small deer, Qin Zhenbei, who already considered Shao Zifeng one of their own, casually strolled up to Li Tianwen.

Li Tianwen glanced at him and continued to focus on the battle displayed on the large screen.

“Ahem.”

Qin Zhenbei intentionally coughed.

With a stern face, Li Tianwen kept his eyes on the large screen.

After a while, Qin Zhenbei could no longer hold back and asked cheerfully, “Tianwen, can your dragon beat this kid’s dragon?”

His annoying demeanor was just like that of an old father bragging about his child.

“My dragon is almost at Tier Nine,” Li Tianwen said with a cold expression.

Qin Zhenbei didn’t mind; he was used to him always being so stern.

“So, when this kid’s dragon reaches Tier Nine, do you think it could thrash yours?”

After asking this question, Qin Zhenbei suddenly felt a chill, as he saw Li Tianwen staring intensely at him.

“How about we have a fight?”

Qin Zhenbei: ?

What’s this about, how did it suddenly get to me?

Though the Thunder Beast is also at Tier Eight, facing a flying dragon would be asking for a beating. Moreover, this Li Tianwen is a renowned battle maniac, the kind who would fight all twelve legions on his own.

And with his profound mastery of cold weapons, even without using mutant creatures, Qin Zhenbei might not even get close to him.

Only a fool would agree to fight him, Qin Zhenbei.

Time to slip away.

“Quiet.”

After a brief period of free discussion, the elderly man in the Zhongshan suit spoke up, “The latest data has been organized; the information coming next is the main reason I kept everyone here.”

“Xiao Sun, start now.”

Xiao Sun nodded and began tinkering with the computer.

The large screen flickered, displaying three distinctly shaped items.

Upon seeing these three items, the people in the conference room expressed confusion.

The majority present were military personnel, whose primary duty was combat, and their understanding of special items was limited to the identification of various energy potions.

Asking them to recognize raw materials directly was just making things difficult for them.

Seeing their puzzled faces, Xiao Sun started explaining while flipping through the data: “These are new materials provided by Professor Chen Yixin, who is still aboard the ‘Snow Dragon’. Please, generals, be patient; I will explain everything shortly.”

“You all remember when Shao Zifeng fell into the sea during his encounter with the ice mountain. According to him, the seabed in that region is an endless expanse known as the Forgotten Cold River,” said Xiao Sun, pressing the remote control, and an image of a glacier appeared on the large screen.

This was a rendering created for ease of explanation after they had received oral information.

The attendees watched the large screen intently, their faces showing awe.

“This glacier was named the Forgotten Cold River by Shao Zifeng’s team, following the principle of naming by the first discoverer, so we adopted his term.”

“According to him, Yin Ice Mountain originated from this Cold River,”

“I will now introduce the effects of the three items. Cold River Ice Crystal: It is said that prolonged consumption can slowly enhance the elemental strength of ice-type mutant creatures.”

The generals looked at each other, seemingly hearing for the first time about an item that could increase elemental strength, especially one that could be consumed directly.

“Cold River Ice Marrow: Also enhances ice properties but it’s somewhat better than the ice crystal. According to Professor Chen, the higher the quality of the ice marrow, the better the effect.”

Li Tianwen, observing the ice marrow in the video, felt somewhat tempted. His Golden Pond Flood Dragon just happened to have ice attributes, although it was through ancestral evolution, unfortunately, the ice control it mastered was still ordinary.

Looking at the description of the last item, Xiao Sun took a deep breath and slowly said, “This is the iron ore from the Forgotten Cold River. It has only one function: unimpeded conduction of ice elements.”

As soon as these words ended, the entire conference room was in an uproar.

Li Tianwen even stood up abruptly, gazing fervently at the iron ore in the video. He, who had been expressionless, now showed a look of frenzy as he watched the iron ore in the display.

“This must be fake, how can there be anything that conducts elements unimpeded?”

“Impossible, impossible.”

“This is material personally handed over by Professor Chen, do you think it’s fake?”

Doubts continued incessantly, and the entire conference room was buzzing with echoes.

“Silence.”

The elder knocked on his gavel, “Now that the three items have been introduced, we shall proceed to the agenda… Tianwen, sit down first, this thing won’t escape.”

Seeing that Li Tianwen had sat down, the elder continued, “The discovery of these three items will undoubtedly greatly enhance the foundation of our Great Xia, and may even provide more research directions for other fields. According to the laws of Great Xia, as a reward for submitting new materials, the submitter can obtain a portion of the proceeds or can make some demands.”

Everyone knew the critical moment had arrived; while there are legal regulations, the specifics of the division are flexible.

“Professor Chen’s intention is that she wants thirty percent of the total earnings from all items.”

“Cough cough… How much?” The elderly man in traditional attire almost choked on his drink, slamming his cane on the ground heavily, “Impossible, from the effect diagram just shown, this Forgotten Cold River covers a vast area, and she, Chen Yixin, alone wants to take thirty percent? She must be dreaming.”

“Thirty percent is indeed a bit too much.” Even the usually quiet elders started to speak out.

The military personnel played a smaller role in matters like this; most of the time, they just needed to zone out.

Xiao Sun, seeing that the elders around the central conference table were united in opinion, continued somewhat embarrassedly, “Professor Chen said, the following are her exact words: ‘I know you wouldn’t agree, so make your own offer, you can’t let the merit go unnoticed…'”

As he looked at what followed, Xiao Sun almost cried, his lips quivered as he struggled to speak.

“Speak up,” an elder urged impatiently.

“Oh.” Xiao Sun gritted his teeth and stiffened his neck as he said, “The following are Professor Chen’s own words, not mine. She said, ‘Granny, you can’t let your granddaughter be treated unfairly, muah… muah muah.'”

As he finished speaking, the expressions of everyone in the conference room became somewhat subtle.

The only person who could be called “granny” here… the surname of the husband of the elderly Mrs. Tang was Chen.

“Hehehe.” Mrs. Tang covered her mouth and laughed, “This cheeky girl, only now remembering her granny.”

She looked around slowly and said, “Since my Xinxin has spoken up, as an elder, I must give some face…”

“Sister Tang, this is not appropriate,” another elder said with a resigned smile.

Mrs. Tang waved her hand, “We must give this face.”

“Discuss the rest among yourselves, if I personally involve myself, it will only lower the offer even more, my stepping back is also giving her face.” Having said that, she revealed a sly smile.

Seeing this, several elders seemed to go back to their younger days; she indeed hadn’t changed.

The man in a Zhongshan suit thought for a moment, “This matter is too significant, the output of the Forgotten Cold River is still unclear. I think we should postpone the decision on the reward division until the assessment of the deposits from Forgotten Cold River is available.”

“I agree.”

“Agreed.”

19 agreed, 1 abstained, 0 opposed.

The twelve generals once again acted as emotionless voting machines.

After this agenda item was passed, just as everyone thought the meeting was about to end, the elderly man in the Zhongshan suit nodded at Xiao Sun.

“According to Shao Zifeng’s description, in the Forgotten Cold River there is a guardian spirit of the Eastern Huang clan awakening.”

“What!”

This news exploded like a thunderclap, all activity halted as everyone’s faces showed disbelief.
