"This is a copper fruit. It grows deep in Thorn Forest, but it is rare to see it outside. Where did you get it?" Yu Yan looked at the fruit in Han Sen's hand with surprise.
"I picked it from a wild vine near the Jade Scale River," Han Sen said.
"You are so lucky. The seed of the copper fruit must have been washed away by the Jade Scale River. I don't know what affected it, but it sprouted and bore fruit." Yu Yan nodded.
"Can I trade this for the wind beast?" Han Sen asked again.
"That's fine. If I could tame it, it wouldn't be worth a single copper fruit. But since I can't tame it, I can't sell its flesh for a single copper fruit. That's fair. You can take it." Yu Yan accepted the copper fruit and allowed Han Sen to take the wind beast away.
Han Sen removed the suppression of Dollar. The wind beast was heavily injured, and without Dollar's suppression, it couldn't move. Han Sen used the Golden Howler to drag it back to the cabin.
Han Sen wanted to see if he could tame the wind beast. If it had come from Thorn Forest, it would have to know its way around. It would know where to go, and where to go, and where to go, and where to go.
If he could tame it, it would be much safer to follow it into Thorn Forest. Otherwise, there would be no place to hunt, and his progress would be slow.
Qu Lanxi and Chu Ming did not see Han Sen when they returned. When they were about to cook, they saw that there was still a lot of meat and soup in the pot.
"It looks like San Mu saved it for us. Let's not be shy."
Chu Ming heated up the broth and gave it to Qu Lanxi. Then, he gave her a bowl of soup and drank the other.
"We have maxed out our basic geno points. It would be a waste to eat this. Let's save it for San Mu," Qu Lanxi said.
"It's just a pot of meat. Next time we eat meat, we'll think of him." Chu Ming picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth.
Although the Money Toad looked ugly, after peeling off its skin, the meat inside was even fatter and more tender than that of a frog. It was very delicious to eat.
But with just one bite, Chu Ming was stunned. He stared blankly at the meat in the bowl and exclaimed, "There's a ghost … There's something wrong with this meat …"
"What's wrong with the meat?" Qu Lanxi asked.
"This … This … This is primitive meat … I only took one bite and I gained one primitive geno point …" Chu Ming pointed at the meat and shouted.
"It can't be?"
Qu Lanxi did not believe him, and she thought Chu Ming was just messing with her. But when she took a bite, she froze.
"I didn't lie to you, did I? It's really the flesh of a primitive creature. San Mu actually killed a primitive creature? How is that possible?"
Chu Ming could not believe it. He drank a few mouthfuls of soup and ate some meat. Indeed, he had gained another primitive geno point.
He finished the bowl of meat and soup, and just like Han Sen, he gained three primitive geno points.
Qu Lanxi was confused, too. It was strange that Han Sen was able to kill a primitive creature.
"When he comes back, I have to ask him where he got this Money Toad. Perhaps we can get a few more," Chu Ming said with excitement.
They waited until the afternoon, and then they saw Han Sen riding Meowth back. The Golden Howler was behind him, carrying a severely injured wind beast.
"San Mu, where did you get that Coin Toad? Holy sh * t! Wind beast!" Before Chu Ming could finish his sentence, he saw Golden Growler riding a wind beast. His mouth opened wide in shock.
"Wind beast?"
Qu Lanxi was shocked, too. She looked behind Han Sen, and when she saw the wind beast on the back of the Golden Howler, she froze as well.
When Yu Yan captured the wind beast, he showed it off to everyone. A primitive creature with four gene locks open was very rare, and everyone in Qing Ming Shelter knew about it.
But after that, no one had seen the wind beast again. Everyone knew it was because Yu Yan had not been able to tame it. If he had, he would have taken it out to show it off a long time ago.
"San Mu … Where did you get this Gale Beast … Oh right … Where did you kill that Coin Toad?" Chu Ming was a little incoherent. He had too many questions in his heart.
"Didn't I tell you last time?
The Money Toad was hunted by the Jade Scale River, and this Gale Beast was exchanged with a Copper Fruit from Knight Yu Yan. "
Han Sen dismounted from Meowth's back and walked over to the Golden Howler. He put the wolf down in the yard.
The wind wolf was on the brink of death, and it couldn't even make a sound. But its eyes were still staring at Han Sen, and it didn't show any sign of weakness despite its weakened state.
"Wait, what's with the copper fruit?
And how did you manage to kill a primitive Money Toad? "Chu Ming asked.
"I saw the injured Money Toad, and there was a strange water vine next to it. There were three fruits on the vine." Han Sen told her what had happened. He was mostly telling the truth, but he made it sound like the Money Toad had been injured before the fight.
"Damn, your luck is so good that it defies the heavens. But you are really stupid. Why did you use the Copper Fruit to exchange for that lousy seed and the Gale Beast?
The copper fruit is very useful for evolving creatures, and it is more valuable than a geno seed of the same level. The wind beast is valuable, too, but you have to tame it to be worth it. One copper fruit is worth two primitive meats, "Chu Ming said, looking at Han Sen as if he was a spendthrift.
"I want to see if I can tame this wind beast," Han Sen said with a smile.
"How is that possible? We are humans, and it is difficult to tame creatures. Not even Yu Yan could tame this wind beast, let alone us." Chu Ming shook his head.
"It might be possible, but let's give it a try." Han Sen smiled.
Han Sen had many creatures in the Second God's Sanctuary, so he did not think it would be difficult for humans to tame creatures.
Qu Lanxi listened to the two of them talk, but she did not say anything. She looked at Han Sen with a complicated expression. She thought San Mu was special, but what Han Sen had done surprised her even more.
Killing the Money Toad and collecting the copper fruit was pure luck. Qu Lanxi did not believe it was possible.
And the Dragon-Blood Tree had only been revived after Han Sen had arrived.
Qu Lanxi looked at Han Sen with a complicated expression, but if Han Sen did not want to tell her, she did not ask.
Although they had not known each other for a long time, Qu Lanxi could tell that he was not a bad person. But what he had just done was beyond her expectations, and it was a shock to her.
"Is there a Han family in the Alliance?" Qu Lanxi frowned.
