Chapter 784 – Prosperity Beast Qiyi
Their attack on Morocco was still at the planning stage. The actual implementation would have to wait till the Battle of Yunnan ended or even later.
Morocco had over three million players.
The only thing advantageous to Shanhai City was that although Morocco was located in the Africa continent, only the south and east parts were connected to it. Moreover, very few people passed these two high plains.
As such, Ouyang Shuo had decided to approve Alvaro's suggestion.
......
After setting up the Friendship City teleportation formation, Ouyang Shuo took out another item – the Territory Prosperity Beast.
No matter how one looked at it, it just looked like a summoning ball.
"System Notification: Player Qiyue Wuyi has a Territory Prosperity Beast; do you wish to summon it?"
"Yes!"
Ouyang Shuo wanted to see what type of beast it was. Based on Gaia's settings, the prosperity beast obtained by different countries would have their own local element to it.
"Would it be a Qilin?"
Talking about beasts, the Qilin was the boss of all of them.
With a 'Shua!' the summoning ball shone with a white light and transformed into a little beast the size of a dog. It lied on the ground; the creature had a squarish body.
It was actually squarish in shape!
The beast only had two colors - black and white. Its two black eyebags were the most eye-catching part about it. Another special part about it was that its head had a rather long piece of fur, similar to that of a Wi-Fi signal.
"Little panda?"
Ouyang Shuo was a little dazzled and approached it to observe the creature more closely.
This little fellow was still in its infancy stage. Moreover, it was still sleeping. It only struggled to open its eyes when it heard the sound of footsteps.
When it saw Ouyang Shuo, that little fellow grew extremely energetic; it jumped up and hugged onto Ouyang Shuo's thigh. Looking at the situation, it seemed like it was not planning to get down.
"...."
Was this a panda or a rabbit; how did it jump so high?
Ouyang Shuo lightly raised his leg but that little fellow did not let go; it simply continued to hold on for dear life. No matter where Ouyang Shuo walked to, the little fellow would follow.
"Is this really a prosperity beast? It does not even have any morals."
Just as Ouyang Shuo was getting confused, a System Notification sounded out in his ear.
"System Notification: Congratulations player Qiyue Wuyi for obtaining the territory prosperity beast - Country Treasure Panda; please name it."
Ouyang Shuo lowered his head and looked at it and helplessly said, "Let's call it Qiyi!"
"System Notification: Naming success! Friendly Reminder: Prosperity beast is still at its infancy stage, so please feed it well. For the specific details, please take a look at the panda rearing technical manual."
The moment the words finished, the summoning ball shone with a white light once more and turned into a book.
"That's it?"
Ouyang Shuo was a little speechless. He used 1.5 million gold to buy this little fellow?
"No matter how I look at it, I've been conned by Gaia."
At that moment, a System Notification sounded out through China.
"System Notification: Congratulations player Qiyue Wuyi for obtaining the territory prosperity beast- Country Treasure Panda. As the first territory to obtain a prosperity beast, Shanhai City is awarded the title of Home of Spirit Beast."
...
The moment the notification sounded out, many players were in an uproar.
The wilderness in the game did not have any pandas. However, such a matter was understandable as Gaia definitely could not design it into some weird beast or the creature would be hunted down by the fans of pandas.
Qiyi was a unique presence in the entire China region.
In less than 10 minutes, the rolling fan club was established, and there were already players who were ready to teleport over to look at the panda.
......
Ouyang Shuo took a look at the stats of Home of Spirit Beast.
Home of Spirit Beast: Raises territory spirit beast evolution rate by 25%, raises territory attraction to spirit beasts by 35%, raises the territory spirit beast taming rate by 30%.
Overall, the buffs were pretty decent.
In comparison, the stats of little fellow Qiyi were giving Ouyang Shuo a headache.
Name: Qiyi (Prosperity Beast)
Race: Panda
Nickname: Roll Roll, Fatty
Stage: Infancy
Skill: Climb trees, roll, pee the bed, rabbit jump...
Talent: Prosperity (Randomly gives the territory prosperity).
Evaluation: The most famous animal in the animal kingdom; it is the most loved creature by all humans.
Looking at the stats, Ouyang Shuo collapsed internally.
Skills as bad as pee the bed and rabbit jump. Are they really skills? The talent prosperity looked good, but it was just a random chance.
Looking at the little fellow hugging onto his leg, Ouyang Shuo felt rather helpless. He bent down and carried it up with a smile, "No matter what, I need to build a house for you first."
'Awuu!'
Qiyi was rather smart and understood human words.
Pandas were extremely pampered creatures, and it was also in its infancy. If it were not in the game, and he did not have any professionals helping him out, Ouyang Shuo would lack the confidence of taking good care of it.
Taking the manual, Ouyang Shuo carried the little fellow and walked toward the back garden. Ouyang Shuo remembered that at the southwest corner of the garden there was a bamboo forest, which was suitable for Qiyi.
Before he went there, Ouyang Shuo headed to the reading room first.
Ouyang Shuo was away from Shanhai City rather often and for extended periods of time, so he could not personally take care of Qiyi. Moreover, its house needed to be specifically designed and the matter needed to be arranged.
No matter what, it was a prosperity beast. Maybe one day it would bring unexpected prosperity to the territory. In the worst case scenario, Ouyang Shuo could just keep it as a pet.
With the fiery discussions online, Ouyang Shuo was even tempted to use ticket fees to slowly earn back the 1.5 million.
In the quiet reading room, a young lady was engrossed in her work. The afternoon sun shone through the curtains and landed onto her black hair.
This lady was Tsing Yi.
Since accepting Ouyang Shuo's appointment, Tsing Yi treated the reading room as her office to help Ouyang Shuo manage the memorials. When Ouyang Shuo arrived, Tsing Yi would follow him.
"Monarch?" Hearing the footsteps, Tsing Yi raised her head. Looking at Qiyi in his arms, she smiled, "Such a cute little fellow. Is it the territory prosperity beast?"
"That's right."
In such a short while, Qiyi had already fallen asleep in his arms.
Ouyang Shuo passed the Panda rearing technical manual to Tsing Yi and smiled, "Go look for the Construction Division and tell them to follow the manual and build a house for Qiyi in the back garden. We should also develop a few breeders to take care of it. It is now the baby of our territory."
"I got it."
Tsing Yi wanted to pat Qiyi. However, seeing that it had fallen asleep, she did not want to disturb it.
When Ouyang Shuo saw that, he smiled, "Next time; there will be many more chances."
......
After leaving the reading room, Ouyang Shuo bumped into Bing'er while passing through the back palace.
"Brother, what are you carrying?"
When Bing'er saw Qiyi, even before Ouyang Shuo could reply, she was already walking quickly over. "Is that a panda? So cute!"
"It's called Qiyi; it's the territory Prosperity beast." Ouyang Shuo smiled and introduced the panda.
Qiyi was originally sleeping but when it smelt Bing'er, it opened its eyes and struggled. It wanted to hug Bing'er.
"Haha!"
Bing'er badly wanted that as well so she hugged the little panda.
This was not surprising. Bing'er was still the master of all spirit beasts, so even the panda could not resist her charm.
It seemed like Bing'er would be the most suitable breeder.
Ouyang Shuo interrupted her, "Let's go and bring it to the bamboo forest."
Bing'er nodded; she took the lead and headed toward the back garden. As she walked, she introduced Qiyi to Xue'er. At the moment, Xue'er was flying in the air. She also mentioned the names of other spirit beasts which were all her 'good friends'.
To Bing'er, she now had one more playmate.
After settling in Qiyi, it was already 5 PM.
The next morning, Ouyang Shuo would once again proceed toward Consonance City to watch the battle. Today, using the aid of the new system update, Baiqi led his left troops to quicken their pace of taking down Mengding.
With the current rate, in less than five days, the entire Mengding could fall. Moreover, the enemy could strike during these five days.
Especially after going through the shock in the auction, Di Chen and the others would be warier.
Now, it was up to which side was more skilled.
At such a crucial moment, how would Ouyang Shuo dare to step away?
Gaia 4th year, 1st month, 4th day, Consonance City.
Just as Baiqi said, their speed these few days was extremely swift, and they took down three enemy cities. All that was left in front of them were two more main ones.
One was called Wenshan City while the other one was called Yuanyang City.
These two cities were the last castles the Yunnan City-State had that were shielding Tengyue Prefecture.
As the troops in Mengding all defended valiantly, before they reached Wenshan City, the left troops were all exceedingly tired. Not to mention the casualties, even the troop morale was already low.
It was not to say that Baiqi's commanding was not good, but it was just that the soldiers were not used to the weather.
Mengding Prefecture was a typical mountainous region. The paths were one thing, but the worst parts were the mountain bugs, the wild beasts, miasma, swamps, and the like.
Apart from that, water posed a huge problem.
If one was not careful, spring water that looked clear would cause the person who drunk it to have a stomachache, causing a string of illnesses that would threaten their lives.
Many people fell sick along the way and even died of weird illnesses.
Furthermore, the enemy kept trying to sow chaos, so they were unable to sleep peacefully. The grain transport forces were attacked and the grain for the frontlines was sometimes broken.
The most dangerous moment was when they went a day without grain.
The successive blows and the huge casualties due to sieges meant that they were not in good condition. Even with Baiqi taking charge, their morale was getting lower and lower.
Luckily, they were about to succeed.
Looking at Wenshan City ahead of them, some soldiers were so happy that they teared up.
