YM778.TV Chapter 89 Magic Beast
After Vincent bought the book, The Compendium of Beast: Third Edition, he was already quite familiar with the Savage Beasts and Magic Beasts that are existing in this world.
As a matter of fact, the compendium even includes the materials that can be looted from the bodies of these beasts. This made him aware of the value of the beasts that they were encountering from time to time.
However, there are Magic Beasts that are very difficult to find so compiling information about them is a hard task.
The White Tiger in front of him is one of them.
The information in the Compendium only states that this magic beast has an affinity to Lightning Element and is very difficult to tame unless you managed to train it when it is still a cub!
"Elder Han… I didn\'t know that your sect is also transporting this Magic Beast." Vincent commented after seeing the cub safely protected inside a white steel cage.
The steel seems special as the small sparks that the cub was trying to manifest were being suppressed quite effortlessly.
During their trip, Vincent remembered seeing three or four disciples entering this carriage at a certain interval.
It is perhaps to feed the white cub or clean its mess inside the cage.
"I\'m sorry for not informing you about the level of danger of our mission. We didn\'t really expect this to happen."
Elder Han said in remorse. He can already confirm that the news about them transporting this Magic Beast has been leaked to the enemy.
This enemy might be the Dark Sky Cult, or perhaps, the Rebel Army itself.
Anyway, Elder Han still sighed in relief after seeing the cub wasn\'t injured by Macy\'s final attack and was only terrified about the sudden disturbance.
He then looked behind him to confirm that the battle against their ambushers was wrapping up.
As expected of the elite disciples of their Sect, even if the enemies consumed a Berserk Pill, they still managed to hold on and killed most of them with only 3 casualties.
"The Sword God is on our side! The Primal Sword Sect is the chosen one!"
"The victory is ours!"
The disciples cheered in joy after killing most of the enemies. Only four managed to escape from the thirty or so ambushers which is quite an impressive feat.
Vincent couldn\'t help but smile after seeing this.
"I underestimated her. She has actually learned a high-level Tier 4 Mana Art and vanished together with the mist."
Tara said as she approached Vincent.
"Oh? It\'s okay… She\'s quite injured anyway. We also managed to kill their elite forces. They shouldn\'t be thinking of striking us again in the meantime." Vincent replied calmly after analyzing the situation.
Tier 4 Mana Arts were indeed tricky abilities and he wouldn\'t blame Tara for that.
One sample of Tier 4 Mana Art is called Mystic Eye, a technique in which you transform your eye using a technique that Vincent has no idea as of yet.
Nevertheless, he concluded that Tier 4 is related to body modifications that were tough to deal with.
"You\'re right… I\'ll get back to the carriage then."
After about half an hour, the situation finally calmed down and they continued on their way to the nearest town.
They were left with only a few horses because of the recent attack so many of them can only walk which slowed them down.
At the moment, there are only 14 remaining members of the Sect including Elder Han. Though it was quite regretful, some of them were still glad that they remained alive.
"Ahh! At last!"
"The town is up ahead!"
"We can finally take a rest…"
The disciples celebrated after seeing the lively town ahead of them. Vincent was also quite happy about this since he can restock his potions again.
This time, he will buy as many as he can so he can always Enhance or Ascend in his pass time.
Anyway, he realized that after reaching the 3-Star level, his natural Mana Recovery Rate has tremendously increased.
Though he was still incapable of manifesting Tier 2 Mana Arts, his Mana Foundation has already developed so much.
He no longer needed to sleep the whole night to recover his Mana!
Their group stayed peacefully within the town but they still left the next day since their mission to bring the Magic Weapons to the border army is very important.
"Vincent, these two are the precious swords of our Primal Sword Sect… Normally, only elite Disciples of our Sect were allowed to obtain this. However, thanks to you and Lady Tara, we were able to reach this town safely and hire a few mercenaries to help us continue on our way… If you have some time, you can visit our Sword Sect someday."
Elder Han said as he handed over two sheathed swords to Vincent. Both of them are identical and were indeed quite precious based on the intricate patterns on their cross-guard and pommel.
As for the scabbard, it was quite plain but he can tell that it was not a simple material as well.
"Thank you, Elder Han. Yes, I might be visiting the Primal Sword Sect… Actually, I think I know some disciples there" Vincent replied.
"Oh? That\'s better! Do you know someone in our Sect? May I ask who were they?" Elder Han asked, thrilled by the sudden discovery of the connection they have.
"About eight years ago, my friends were taken by Elder Thierry to the Primal Sword Sect. He was already quite old when I met him before. Do you know someone with that name?"
"Elder Thierry?! Of course! Haha… I guess your friends were also talented. Elder Thierry is one of our Sect\'s Sword Master. I might\'ve seen them in the sect then…" Elder Han smiled.
The two then chatted for a little while until it was time for them to leave.
The Sect Disciples also thanked Vincent and Tara before they finally left with a new carriage and horses with them. Aside from that, they have hired a total of 10 mercenaries from this town to help them with the journey ahead of them.
"I thought you\'re planning to join them in going to the Arms City since we all have the same destination?" Tara asked recalling Vincent\'s words.
"Don\'t worry… We just have to settle something in this town then we\'ll meet them in Canthus City." Vincent replied mysteriously as he looked at the receding figures of Elder Han and the others.
