Chapter 199

Xie Juanhan and Telingewei had no choice but to learn it themselves.

Fortunately, there were plenty of examples to follow, and Old Fowler, for the sake of the money, didn't mind sharing his experience.

Soon, Telingewei will be able to castrate roosters independently.

He was patient and meticulous, and his technique was skillful. The wounds on the castrated roosters were very small, with minimal bleeding, and the survival rate was almost 99%.

Only a handful of unlucky roosters would manage to meet the goddess early for various reasons.

After Telingewei mastered the skill, they prepared to castrate the Tuonai'er Demon Bird at home.

This year, their family hatched a total of 93 Demon Bird, of which 41 were male chicks.

Xie Juanhan examined the male birds, then picked out the largest one with the brightest feathers. "Shall we keep this lucky one as a stud?"

Telingewei glanced at it and nodded.

Xie Juanhan: "Then the other male Demon Bird can be given the medicine."

Xie Juanhan and his group brought out a pot of dark, black magic potion and fed it to each of the Demon Bird.

This potion recipe comes from the Elf race.

Their Magic Forest, aside from anything else, is truly abundant in all sorts of magical herbs.

Xie Juanhan's potion was also very potent.

After they gave the male chicks the potion, they quickly fell into a coma.

After examining the Demon Bird, Telingewei and Xie Juanhan began to castrate it in the yard.

With incredible speed and dexterity, Telingewei removed the testicles of a group of young male birds almost in the blink of an eye.

Harper and the others were both scared and curious. They crouched in the corridor with their paws tucked in, their bellies pressed firmly against the floor, their big eyes watching the row of male birds that had lost their eggs.

Xie Juanhan turned around and saw Harper and the others lying in a row.

Upon meeting Xie Juanhan's gaze, they even let out a soft "chirp".

Xie Juanhan had never seen them so well-behaved since he had known them.

Under Harper's sympathetic gaze, all the male Tuonai'er Demon Bird except for the breeding male were castrated.

Telingewei's craftsmanship was excellent, Tuonai'er Demon Bird lacked sentience.

The group of male birds had no idea what they had lost.

High-level Demonic Beast have very strong vitality.

The same is true of Xie Juanhan's family's Tuonai'er Demon Bird.

Two days later, the castrated male birds had recovered and were released back into the wild by Xie Juanhan and Telingewei.

The male birds that have returned to the fields are fighting much less frequently, and they don't seem as aggressive anymore.

However, Xie Juanhan soon discovered something else—

"Has that little male bird become the leader of the Demon Bird?"

Among the Demon Bird, the only uncastrated male bird quickly overpowered the others and became the de facto leader.

The Demon Bird's territorial instincts were aroused, and the leader bird spent its days patrolling the farmland and surrounding areas with its subordinates.

Other creatures are not allowed by Xie Juanhan and his group to enter the farmland, let alone approach it, or they will be chased by them.

Xie Juanhan witnessed adventurers running to the mountain next to their farmland to collect magical herbs.

Moli observed and determined that it would be appropriate for the adventurers to operate in the outer areas, away from their farmland.

The Tuonai'er Demon Bird, however, paid no heed.

Led by the leader bird, they pecked the unfamiliar adventurers three miles away.

Extremely fierce.

Xie Juanhan was also unaware of the Tuonai'er Demon Bird's reaction after being castrated. He muttered to Telingewei, "Now there's a new legend circulating that we're incredibly fierce and have a large flock of extremely powerful level three Demonic Beast."

Telingewei thought for a moment, "That seems to be true."

Xie Juanhan: "Yes, I thought there would be more and more adventurers in the Magic Forest, but it seems that won't happen. This is a truly unexpected bonus."

See you tomorrow!

Chapter 199 [VIP]

The Magic Forest turned completely green sometime during the day, and now it's covered in shades of green.

The wind, rolling through this greenery, seemed to carry its own verdant hue.

Summer is almost here.

Harper and the others were sleeping in the yard.

A gentle breeze ruffled their fur, and their breathing became gentle and long as well.

Until a clicking sound came from not far away, disturbing the furry creatures' peaceful slumber.

"Chirp?" Harper's ear tip twitched, as if trying to swat away the noise.

Finding that the "click-click-click" sound showed no signs of stopping, but instead grew louder, it had no choice but to crane its neck and look towards the riverbank.

At the same time, the other furry creatures also raised their heads and looked towards the riverbank.

In the river, a group of round-headed creatures floated up from the dappled sunlight, raising their fins and calling out, "Click-click?"

They are Tata Fish.

Harper responded with a "Chirp."

Tata Fish: "Click-clack?"

As they called out, the Tata Fish turned their heads and looked around, trying to find Xie Juanhan and Telingewei.

As fish, they have no necks, so when they turn their heads, their bodies turn along with them, making it look like they are spinning in circles in the river.

Harper wagged her tail and explained, "Chirp, chirp chirp."

Xie Juanhan and Telingewei are not home.

They went out to sea to collect whale blubber.

Harper and the others didn't want to get smelly, so they stayed home.

Why aren't the two dragons home?

The Tata Fish were a little disappointed.

They turned their attention back to the furry creatures, circled the river twice, and found Harper and the others lying motionless in two separate groups in two different places.

It looks a bit strange.

The Tata Fish tilted their heads in confusion, looking at them with a "click-click?"

Harper looked down at the grass beneath his belly, then called out to the Tata Fish, "Chirp, chirp."

- Rune templates are below.

Xie Juanhan buried rune templates in their own yard, which they usually used to collect life force such as Dragon Power, Magic Power, and Goblin energy.

It had been buried for several days, but there was no movement.

A few days ago, the rune template lit up at night.

The shimmering white light shone through the soil, like stars buried in the earth.

Xie Juanhan and the others came out to check after being called by the Magic Wand Tree, only to find that the rune template had absorbed enough life energy to be buried in the Star Berry field to nourish the Star Berry.

Realizing this, they dug up the old rune templates, replaced them with new ones, and buried them in the yard to absorb life energy; they buried two more of them.

These past few days, Harper and the others have been sleeping on the rune templates whenever they have nothing to do.

They were even deliberately divided into two groups: Nibote and Moli slept on one rune template, Harper and the others lay on the other.

Even though Xie Juanhan said it wouldn't have much of an impact, they still stubbornly believed that this would accelerate the absorption of life force by the rune template.

Therefore, even when the old fish came, Harper and the others remained motionless.

The Tata Fish only half understood what they were hearing, and just stared blankly.

Harper chirped for a while, but unable to explain to these silly fish, she simply turned and chirped once more.

Haxi slowly stood up and ran into the kitchen with a few of his friends.

Soon, the Companion Beast brought out vegetables and ice cubes of nectar water that Xie Juanhan had frozen in advance.

Honey water ice cubes are for the furry creatures to make drinks.

Xie Juanhan and Telingewei have been busy lately and are rarely home, so they specially froze a bunch of ice blocks in advance for the dogs to carry around and eat.

Haxi and the others generously scooped the nectar water ice cubes directly into the bucket, and dragged out the entire bucket of ice cubes for the Tata Fish.

As soon as the Tata Fish caught the scent of nectar and ice, they started circling in the river again, making a "click-click-click" sound.

Companion Beast: "Chirp!"

Moli lazily stood up, and together with Nibote, they used water ladles to feed the wide-mouthed Tata Fish nectar water and ice cubes.

The Tata Fish swallowed the cool, sweet ice cubes with even greater delight. "Crunch, crunch, crunch!"

After eating the ice cubes, they also ate vegetables. "Crunch crunch crunch!"

Before long, the Tata Fish had eaten their fill and were now looking at the furry creatures on the shore with great enthusiasm.

After they had eaten their fill, their intelligence returned, and they finally figured out what was under the furry creatures lying there.

So they suggested, "Click click click?"

The Tata Fish's message this time was somewhat complex.

Harper and the others tilted their heads and listened for a long time, but still couldn't understand.

The Tata Fish called out several more times.

After several rounds of back-and-forth chirping and clicking, Harper and the others finally understood.

The Tata Fish invited them to put the rune templates into the sea.

The furry creatures were shocked and immediately stood up, looking at the Tata Fish in the river.

Is that even possible? squeak

Tata Fish: "Click click click!"

They know the lairs of several high-level Demonic Beast and can send rune templates there.

Then the Demonic Beast will be able to charge the rune templates just like the furry creatures.

The furry creatures' eyes lit up, their gazes fixed intently on the Tata Fish.

The Tata Fish waved their fins, swaying back and forth in the river, making "click-click" sounds to indicate that they were very familiar with the territories of several large Demonic Beast.

These are all territories of level four Demonic Beast.

They could secretly slip the rune template over without the Demonic Beast noticing.

The furry creatures immediately agreed, "Chirp!"

Moli took the lead, skillfully went to the study and brought out a large stack of unused rune templates, then ran out again.

The Tata Fish were waiting for them in the river.

Once they came out, the Tata Fish swam to the shore and gestured for the furry creatures to climb onto their backs.

Moli and Nibote were already quite large, so it was no longer appropriate for them to ride the Tata Fish out to sea.

After a quick discussion, both sides roughly understood each other's meaning.

The Tata Fish skillfully carried their Companion Beast on their backs, while Nibote carried Moli on his back, Moli carrying a string of rune templates in his mouth.
