69 -69 – Enemies Meet on a Narrow Road_1

In order to accommodate the chocobo egg, Mu You used Phantom Shifting to transfer the large tree, including its roots and soil, directly into his backpack’s space.

He buried it in an empty spot, briefly secured it, and then placed the nest back on a tree branch.

Only after doing all this did Mu You look down at the fwooper beneath his feet.

At this point, this purple owl had been firmly bound by him, even its eyes covered with cloth, looking every bit like a kidnapped victim.

Mu You first checked his phone, unfortunately, there were still no prompts for ‘contract’ in the game.

According to Cola’s explanation, the problem was the fwooper’s low intelligence.

Its behavior mainly followed its instincts, making it nearly impossible to train it as a familiar.

The problem was this creature held a quite troublesome ability, making it a hassle if it could not be persuaded to become a familiar.

If killed directly, it seems to be a waste.

If kept, he was afraid of its random use of abilities, causing uncontrollable consequences…

“Forget it, let’s try keeping it here for now…”

After contemplating for a moment, Mu You finally stepped forward to untie its blindfold and bonds.

This bird had no inherent aggression.

It only activated its abilities due to its protective instincts— its sense of insecurity stimulated a response.

But the backpack space was entirely closed off.

Although it would lose freedom here, it offered absolute safety.

Leaving the fwooper in here, and giving it time to adjust, might work.

Once it understood the safety of this space, the aggression might disappear.

Of course, whether it could adapt or not was still uncertain to Mu You.

For now, he decided to keep it for some time and see.

If it couldn’t be tamed, it could always be dealt with later.

On the other hand, Cola was squatting on the side, ready to strike at any moment with its claw raised.

If the bird showed any signs of trying to control them again, it would immediately swipe at it.

Surprisingly, the fwooper was quite calm after its bindings were removed.

It glanced at Mu You, then at Cola, finally surveying its surroundings.

It made no noise, didn’t fuss, and gave no indication that it had resigned to its fate or realized the safety of this place.

In any case, the fwooper completely ignored them both and just flew back up to the tree, confirming that no eggs had gone missing in the nest before fluffing its feathers, settling down on the eggs, and continuing its incubation.

“Has peace been tentatively achieved?”

Mu You cast the fwooper a strange look and walked up to the nest, using ‘Animal Speech’ to communicate with it.

“You can stay here, consider this your home.

No one here will harm you, and no one will steal your eggs.

However, the premise is that you shan’t make trouble.

If you randomly use your abilities, I’ll kick you out, and you’ll lose the eggs you are tending to…”

Despite the varied approaches of Mu You, there was no telling if the fwooper got it.

The bird was looking at him like he was a fool throughout his monologue.

This gave Mu You the feeling that he was playing the lute to a cow.

“Forget it, let it be.”

Mu You shook his head helplessly, then teleported out of the backpack.

After that, he and Cola continued their exploration in the forest.

Curiously, the forest didn’t seem to host any magical creatures.

Possibly the spider nests had devoured all the nearby magical creatures.

So the two aimlessly wandered for around five to six hours, from noon until the sun set in the west.

They encountered a few small wild beasts intermittently, but they didn’t come across even one useful magical creature!

Mu You distrustfully fiddled with his detector, but no matter how he tweaked it, the screen remained pitch black.

Neither red nor green dots appeared.

“Seriously, did they act this quickly?” Mu You was a little confused.

He originally thought that this huge outbreak of magical creatures would create a significant impact across Earth, followed by a mountain of reports, like magical creatures intruding the city, causing massive damage, apocalyptic scenes, etc.

But now it seemed that was not the case!

Like starving locusts, players had just about depleted the magical creatures that had appeared less than half a day ago.

Mu You even started hoping for another couple of creature outbreaks at this moment.

Given how demanding the players were, a few magical creatures were hardly enough to satisfy their hunger.

No choice, as there were no more creatures.

Lingering around here would be a waste of time.

Mu You was thinking about leaving and going home.

Just at that moment, the roaring sound of helicopters came from the sky overhead.

Not just one, but several helicopters flew over the forest, all heading in one direction.

“What’s happening?

So many aircraft are being deployed, could there be more magical creatures?”

As Mu You was contemplating, a voice from his walkie-talkie blared out.

“Coordinates 32, 48, target spotted, I repeat, target spotted!

All teams, head over for backup…”

A target?

Mu You was startled.

Anything that the military would refer to as a ‘target’ would definitely be unusual!

Moreover, from what it seemed, the military’s entire operation was centred around this ‘thing’.

What could it be?

Mu You was intrigued again.

’32, 48′, these must be coordinates devised by the military – without their internal map, he would not be able to decipher it.

Fortunately, this wasn’t an issue for him.

He could just follow the helicopters.

He quickly commanded the battle eagle to follow the helicopters.

But he didn’t dare to let the battle eagle get too close.

If the helicopters mistakenly identify it as a hostile creature, a fierce machine gun attack could be disastrous.

He kept the battle eagle at a distance, trailing the helicopters.

He and Cola hurried in the same direction.

After a few minutes, the helicopters hovered and landed on a lawn.

They seemed to have arrived at their destination.

A dozen armed soldiers jumped out of the helicopters, and ran towards a certain direction.

Mu You urgently switched to the battle eagle’s viewpoint and followed suit.

As he approached, he could hear explosions and roars from the forest nearby, as well as the colorful trajectory of an Arcane Missile cutting through the middle of the sky, crashing down into the forest, and causing a chaotic mess of flying sand and stones.

That’s magic!

There were no doubts about it.

There were people engaged in battle in front of him, and it wasn’t just them, there was a group of people engaged in a large scale team battle!

Mu You ordered the battle eagle to quickly get closer.

As the distance lessened, his viewpoint sharpened.

Several soldiers were crouching behind a makeshift trench, holding machine guns, yet not daring to fire.

That’s because of the cloaked players they were battling.

There were three of them on the frontlines, their attention focused on their target, a werewolf!

A chain-claw circled the werewolf’s left hand, while a large, warped blade was held in his right.

This figure was quite familiar.

“Is it him?”

Mu You was quite surprised.

He didn’t expect to see this werewolf here, even more so, engaging in a conflict with players associated with the military over what seemed like some object.
