I Can See All The Bosses' Drops-Chapter 865 - 839: Origins of the Four Major Cities’ Names
"Did you kill Orochi?"
In the Cyan Dragon City's City Lord's Mansion, Babylon looked at Lin Yi with eyes as if he were a monster and said:
"You really know how to bring surprises!"
Lin Yi shrugged indifferently and replied: 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
"It was just luck."
In fact, if it hadn't been for that blow from the Eight-Clawed Fire Python that severely injured Orochi and the final activation of the weapon's passive ability,
under those circumstances, Lin Yi really didn't have the ability to deal with Orochi.
It wasn't wrong to say it was luck.
But Babylon merely scoffed at Lin Yi's notion of 'luck' and said:
"Even though it broke free early from the seal of Kalsa's divine power, causing its strength to greatly diminish."
"But no matter what, it was still a fierce beast from ancient times."
"To kill it under Tanzawa Yixiong's watchful eyes in Celestial River City."
"Do you think a word like 'luck' can achieve that?"
Regarding whether it was indeed luck, Babylon didn't really care.
He continued to say:
"In that case, you must have gained quite a lot from this, right?"
Lin Yi replied diplomatically:
"Not bad."
"Not bad? Haha~"
Here, Babylon led Lin Yi to the serene pavilion in the backyard garden of the City Lord's Mansion.
The bright moon was hanging high, and the night air was slightly cool.
Energy Crystal Stones were inlaid around the garden, emitting a faint glow that, combined with the moonlight, cast a unique beauty on the flower-filled backyard garden.
When the two sat down, Babylon first poured a glass of sweet wine for Lin Yi, then asked:
"Tell me, what brings you here this time?"
Faced with Babylon, who had been friendly from the start and had helped him multiple times, Lin Yi didn't hold back anything and directly asked:
"Is there an ancient beast sealed beneath Cyan Dragon City?"
However, as soon as he spoke, Babylon, who was just about to raise his glass, suddenly exerted force:
"Bang~"
The exquisite wine glass shattered instantly, even as the wine splashed, he remained unaware.
Babylon looked at Lin Yi in shock:
"How did you know about this?"
Seeing Babylon's reaction, Lin Yi suddenly said:
"Before killing Orochi, I also killed the Eight-Clawed Fire Python beneath Celestial River City."
"What!"
Once again, Babylon stood up filled with shock, looking at Lin Yi:
"You!"
"The Eight-Clawed Fire Python was killed by you?!"
Lin Yi of course didn't hide anything, directly nodded and admitted:
"Yes!"
Just seeing Babylon's reaction at this moment even startled Lin Yi himself.
Ever since he emerged from the Celestial Pool, he had been pondering this question.
Since an ancient beast like the Eight-Clawed Fire Python was sealed beneath Celestial River City, then surely beneath the Four Major Cities of the Hua Country War Zone, there must be ancient beasts sealed as well.
Throughout the journey, Lin Yi was curious about what kind of ancient beasts were sealed beneath these Four Major Cities and wondered if there was a chance to turn them into guardian beasts of the Main City.
Only then, when facing the Demon Race Invasion, Lin Yi would feel more at ease.
So Lin Yi came back and immediately sought out Babylon to learn more about the situation from him.
But seeing Babylon's previous reaction, it indeed felt a bit unusual.
When he sought out Tanzawa Yixiong in Celestial River City, his reaction wasn't as intense as Babylon's!
After getting Lin Yi's precise answer, Babylon had no doubt about him.
At this moment, the shock on his face had faded, replaced by a look of solemnity:
"Can you break the seal of the Celestial Race?"
If it's still that Eight Trigrams Array, then it's not difficult for Lin Yi.
After all, those were left by his ancestors, breaking it wouldn't take much time.
Lin Yi openly said:
"I broke the seal beneath Celestial River City."
"As for the other Main City's seals, whether I can break them or not, I'd have to see first to make a conclusion."
Then Lin Yi suddenly asked curiously:
"What ancient beast is sealed beneath our Cyan Dragon City?"
Babylon didn't immediately unravel the mystery for Lin Yi but looked at Lin Yi with some surprise:
"Have you... reached the Sixth Transformation?"
Then he drew a deep breath:
"Hiss~"
"Oh~"
Lin Yi paused, nodded, and said:
"The level has reached it, but I haven't had the chance to perform the Sixth Transformation."
If it weren't for drawing that Lv7 reward from the [Divine Format], under normal circumstances, Lin Yi would have to wait more than half a year to reach his current level.
At this moment, Babylon suddenly fell silent, causing Lin Yi to be taken aback:
"Is there a problem?"
After a while, Babylon slowly spoke:
"You want to know what ancient beast is suppressed beneath my Cyan Dragon City, don't you?"
"Alright, I'll tell you."
As he spoke, Babylon sat back down and gazed into the distant night sky, murmuring:
"During ancient times, four Divine Beasts were born within chaos in the Eastern Continent, namely Cyan Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise."
"Today, most people remember only these Four Great Divine Beasts, unaware."
"That simultaneously with the birth of the Four Divine Beasts, four Fierce Beasts of equal fame were also born."
"These Four Fierce Beasts emerged with celestial powers, wreaking havoc everywhere, causing widespread misery."
"Upon learning of this, the Four Divine Beasts, along with the Celestial Race of that time, joined forces to suppress the Four Fierce Beasts beneath our present-day Four Major Cities."
"Since then, the Four Divine Beasts have vanished from people's sight along with the suppression of the Four Fierce Beasts, and no one knows their whereabouts."
"However, later generations speculated that the Four Divine Beasts were also suppressed within our Four Major Cities along with the Four Fierce Beasts."
"Thus, our Four Major Cities are named after the Four Divine Beasts."
"But the seal laid down by the Celestial Race remains unbroken to this day, and the speculation has not been verified."
At this point, Babylon stopped talking.
Only now did Lin Yi truly learn the origin of the names of the Four Major Cities.
Lin Yi could no longer contain his curiosity and asked:
"Then what are the Four Fierce Beasts?"
Babylon replied:
"Taotie, Taowu, Piqiu, and Qiongqi."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yi's eyes widened in disbelief:
'These names sound so familiar!'
If not mistaken, aren't these Fierce Beasts mentioned in that ancient book passed down in Hua Country from antiquity to this day?
Could it be that these creatures truly exist in this world?
While Lin Yi felt shocked by this revelation, Babylon spoke once more:
"When I took over as City Lord, I was told."
"Should one day a person capable of breaking the seal appear..."
He gazed intently at Lin Yi, suddenly pausing.
This made Lin Yi a bit impatient:
"And then?"
"Aren't you going to finish your sentence!"
Babylon suddenly smiled and said:
"It will be the day of the return of the Four Divine Beasts."
