Divine Beast Creator
Chapter 2337 - 2338: Their Respective Plans
"This possibility isn’t non-existent, but it’s not large. After the Great Destruction, there aren’t many remnants left. You should know that it was a changeover between two eras, unlike the internal dynastic rotations within an era."
Feng Yuan thought for a moment before speaking. He didn’t really think there was such a possibility, since after the Great Destruction, it’s unlikely that many ruins would remain, unless something unexpected happened midway.
The divine runes appearing inside the Cave of Garomar involved many nations, which doesn’t seem likely to have been obtained from ancient ruins. After all, nobody would specifically document such things.
Not to mention surviving the Great Destruction till modern times by sheer luck. The probability of this is smaller than obtaining complete data from the Yin World.
"It’s a pity we can’t just catch someone to ask, to avoid affecting history directly."
Veronia looked regretfully at the busy Salontos people. Even if they could use their ultimate move to make them forget this part of their memories, there would still be hidden dangers.
They were here to investigate clues, not to cause destruction. It’s better to avoid actions that could impact time and history.
"It’s not entirely impossible. If accuracy isn’t a priority, investigating through a time tributary won’t affect normal time. But let’s not bother with that for now; it’s too troublesome."
Feng Yuan stroked his chin as he spoke, shaking his head. Taking shortcuts, a time tributary is naturally a good way. Although it would differ from the main timeline, it wouldn’t be too different overall.
However, doing so would require them to guide a time tributary and then investigate it, which was too much hassle for Feng Yuan.
"For now, let’s leave it at this. If that doesn’t work, then we’ll go with it."
Agunas swished their tail while speaking. If possible, they didn’t want to bother with all this, but if nothing turned up, they might have to resort to such special methods.
"Uh, as you wish, just don’t ask me to help. Dealing with timelines and such is really troublesome."
With a shrug, Feng Yuan didn’t stop Agunas’ idea. As long as they didn’t make him take action, he didn’t mind how Agunas would proceed.
"I understand."
Agunas glanced at Feng Yuan and replied nonchalantly, using the time tributary to investigate was their matter, naturally they wouldn’t trouble Feng Yuan.
The entire Cave of Garomar was covered with numerous divine runes, many of which had disappeared in the future. Feng Yuan suspected it might be related to the damage to the rock walls.
After all, in the future, the entire Cave of Garomar would be significantly larger than it is now.
However, apart from the divine runes and the Salontos, Feng Yuan and the others did not find any trace of the Kashantuosi they were looking for.
After turning around the Cave of Garomar for a whole day, Feng Yuan and the others didn’t find any particularly useful clues, except confirming that the Salontos mastered a lot of Mythical Era technology, with no other gains.
At the Eitus District of Lodeman City, Feng Yuan successfully found a place to temporarily settle by pretending to be an Ascetic.
"Let’s wrap up today’s investigation here. If you have something to investigate, just go ahead. If you find anything, come and find me, okay?"
In the guest room, Feng Yuan said to Agunas and the others. Although Feng Yuan wasn’t too tired to keep investigating, he felt that it wouldn’t be very meaningful to continue.
Moreover, since he was rarely here in the past world, Feng Yuan wanted to take the opportunity to look around.
The Eitus District is known in the modern age as the New Emperor District. It’s just that before Philox secured a final defensive victory, these areas hadn’t been renamed to New Emperor yet.
After all, Eitus is the god of victory in Coletos myth and legend. Although not an actual being, at this critical juncture facing a great enemy, the name of this new district represents the hope of the common folk.
Of course, it was the combined effects of the super blizzard and Philox’s later battle plans that allowed Coletos to escape the disaster of destruction. At the same time, it led most people to spontaneously rename Eitus District to New Emperor District to welcome their new emperor.
Agunas and the others didn’t intend to give up on this investigative opportunity, so when Feng Yuan decided to rest, they chose to continue investigating nearby.
Only Milos Lulu decided to stay by Feng Yuan’s side, mainly because Milos Lulu didn’t see any connections to the Kashantuosi, and following Agunas’ actions, they didn’t lack such insignificant combat power.
Feng Yuan didn’t mind Milos Lulu’s actions. This was Coletos, so surely they wouldn’t do anything here; otherwise, if an accident occurred, the future Coletos might disappear entirely.
"Well then, let’s just stroll around first; I wonder how different Eitus District is from the modern time."
After Agunas and the others left for a while, Feng Yuan suddenly spoke up. Milos Lulu looked at Feng Yuan and couldn’t help but voice the doubt in their heart.
"Why do I feel like you don’t seem to care much about the investigation?"
"Uh, more or less. After all, those guys hide so deeply, I don’t think we can catch them off guard so easily."
"Moreover, the investigation in Lodeman City gives me a strange feeling; I think we might have misunderstood something."
Scratching his head, Feng Yuan commented casually. It was precisely because of this suspicion that he wasn’t so invested. Besides, forcing the investigation wouldn’t be useful.
Those people weren’t like Quine; the Mythical Era isn’t a joke. Even after the Great Destruction, nobody knows what kinds of powers they possess.
Investigating is fine, but a barbaric investigation, who knows what might happen, unless it’s like in the Parallel World, where there’s already damage and impact. Otherwise, no one dares to gamble on what actions might result if they forcefully attack the other side.
"I’m very worried. What if Philox is deeply entangled with them..."
With Agunas and the others not around, Milos Lulu dared to voice their concerns to Feng Yuan, especially since Feng Yuan’s reaction reassured them more.
"So what if they are? I don’t think Coletos will become their pawn, unless you completely ignore it. As for colluding with them?"
Feng Yuan chuckled and shrugged. He didn’t think that was possible. Salonto is a group of researchers chasing the Mythical Era, and the Mythological Remnants might have common goals with the Kashantuosi Remnants. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢
Milos Lulu?
After serious consideration, Feng Yuan couldn’t see how they could get along with the Kashantuosi. It’s a joke, their interests don’t align at all.
"Don’t worry about such things. Even if Philox has ties to them, it won’t affect Coletos much. Agunas won’t easily change history."
"Coletos remains unchanged, and some details aren’t that important, right?"
Feng Yuan laughed as he spoke, and Milos Lulu nodded in conflicted agreement. What Feng Yuan said made sense. Stretching, Feng Yuan chuckled and gently patted Xiao Ji’s head, saying
"Alright, let’s go out and take a look. Lodeman City during this era seems quite interesting."
Although there wasn’t anything akin to tourism in the Dynasty Era, similarly, the scenery unique to this era was intriguing to the modern Feng Yuan as well.
Moreover, he also wanted to confirm some things, like those artisans connected to the Kashantuosi, what was actually going on during this period.
Feng Yuan didn’t remind Agunas and the others about these things because he wasn’t sure what lay behind them. Veronia was easier to deal with; Feng Yuan believed if it was his suggestion, it would listen.
But Agunas was different. Feng Yuan worried that a disagreement with it might arise later, which would indeed be troublesome.
"Lodeman City during this period? With the clouds of war hanging over it, it might not be an interesting travel experience."
Milos Lulu slowly said, not believing Lodeman City had anything special during this time. Feng Yuan smiled, not explaining much, lightly patted Xiao Ji, asking it to follow, and opened the door to leave the room.
Seeing Feng Yuan leave, Milos Lulu had no choice but to catch up. Compared to Agunas and the others, Feng Yuan was even more likely to cause changes in history, perhaps more dangerous.
After all, Feng Yuan’s strength was evident. Wanting to make waves in the Time River required significant strength, without which it would be impossible to resist the time correction. Still, Milos Lulu didn’t know what Feng Yuan intended to do.
