Chapter 1739: Chapter 1740: A Strange Disappearance
In the evening, watching Veronia complete the treatnt for the Little Fla Wolf, Feng Yuan carefully observed and said to it,
“Recovering well, it seems it won’t be long before you can be sent back.”
Hearing Feng Yuan’s words, the Little Fla Wolf happily wagged its tail. However, it couldn’t help but look at Feng Yuan and Veronia, realizing they helped it. By rules, shouldn’t it find a way to repay them?
Unfortunately, even though the Little Fla Wolf is not very smart, it understands one thing: it is hard to repay the Divine Beast Veronia and Agunas, because it lacks the strength, but it seems there is still so possibility with Feng Yuan.
Feng Yuan, who was teasing Xiao Ji at the ti, did not notice the anomaly with the Little Fla Wolf. In his view, the Little Fla Wolf shouldn’t care about him, since it was Veronia who brought it over, not himself, and he rely watched the treatnt from the side without getting involved. There was no reason for the other party to have a favorable impression of him.
Similarly, Xiao Ji didn’t notice the Little Fla Wolf’s anomaly either, or else it would have cried out at it. After teasing Xiao Ji for a while, Feng Yuan was about to return to his room to rest, when his phone’s ringtone gradually grew louder. Kong Qing, using telekinesis, floated Feng Yuan’s phone over, handed it to him, then turned and went back to find Pomiti.
Looking at the marked caller ID in confusion, Feng Yuan found it odd that Liao Yu would suddenly call him late at night.
“Hello? What’s up? Don’t tell your Special Duty Team has been wiped out by sothing strange.”
“Can’t you think of sothing positive?”
“I really can’t think of anything good worth calling about at night. So, tell , what exactly happened?”
Rolling his eyes, Feng Yuan said in annoyance, the person on the other end was clearly not anxious, it didn’t seem to be an urgent crisis. But why would they need to call him at this ti?
“Not really any incident. You haven’t taken in a Spirit Beast lately… no wait, you haven’t adopted a Data-based Spirit Beast, have you?”
“Huh? Hey! That’s slander! When did I ever abduct a Data-based Spirit Beast? If I really did that, would that initial Data Spirit Fox have ended up in your hands?”
“No, um, that initial Data-based Spirit Beast suddenly disappeared these past couple of days. We searched all over Maomu City and couldn’t find it. I thought it had co to you.”
“No, but can you guys really find Data-based Spirit Beasts? If they hide in the Data Domain, you wouldn’t be able to find them at all, right?”
Saying this without words, Feng Yuan also found it strange. As far as he rembered, the initial Data-based Spirit Beast had a good relationship with the Special Duty Team, so it’s unlikely it ran away due to bullying or other issues. Not to ntion its importance, those who made it into the Special Duty Team, though maybe not ardently loving Spirit Beasts, at least have their morals in check, making it unlikely they’d do anything to the important mber, the Data Spirit Fox.
But other than that, what reason would the other party have to leave without saying anything, since the Special Duty Team didn’t restrict its movents. Logically speaking, even if it went out to play, no one would stop it. But when the Special Duty Team treated it with the standards of hosting a Divine Beast for so long, even if it was going to leave, it should at least tell soone or find another Spirit Beast to pass the ssage.
But if it truly did that, naturally the Special Duty Team wouldn’t be searching everywhere for its traces. It ans there’s a huge possibility sothing unexpected happened, but Feng Yuan couldn’t make sense of the reason to attack the Data Spirit Fox.
Because the other party is precious? Although the number of Data-based Spirit Beasts is still few, they’re not exceedingly rare. Every city’s Special Duty Team can gather several of them.
Because the other party is the first Data-based Spirit Beast? Hmm… that involves insiders. At least Feng Yuan doesn’t believe the Special Duty Team or even the Great Xia governnt would be so bored as to publicize the first Data-based Spirit Beast matter, especially now that there are quite a few Data Spirit Foxes, and not many people necessarily know which one is the first Data-based Spirit Beast.
Moreover, although it carries the title of the first, for the Spirit Beast itself it doesn’t have any particular effect, not to ntion evolving into a unique form, even its aptitude may not be the best.
Unable to figure it out, Feng Yuan directly asked Liao Yu, but the other party was also unclear about what happened. The disappearance of the Data Spirit Fox was discovered two days later when the aunt responsible for feeding them noticed that a Data Spirit Fox hadn’t appeared all day, and upon investigating, found that it had gone missing two days before.
Due to the Special Duty Team not limiting their actions, initially everyone thought it was off playing sowhere and forgot to return. But subsequent investigations raised nurous doubts.
There was no video showing the party leaving the Special Duty Team, or rather, the last ti the party appeared in recorded footage was at the door of its resting room where its nest was. After that, the party never appeared again.
Of course, Data-based Spirit Beasts can leave unnoticed by using the Data Domain, but if that was the case, the party should have left so mark or reminder, yet they never found such things.
“The Data Spirit Fox disappeared? Could soone have the audacity to make a move within the Special Duty Team?”
After Feng Yuan hung up the phone, Veronia curiously asked him, looking at the party. The Data Spirit Fox, such Data-based Spirit Beasts, should be living in the Special Duty Teams all over, how could anyone dare to make a move on them, since currently, with no wild Data-based Spirit Beasts, they couldn’t appear in the underground illegal trade markets.
Otherwise, what they would face wouldn’t just be severe crackdowns from various countries, but might even trigger the wrath of the Divine Beasts.
After all, those illegal underground markets are usually not actively cleared, but if they dare to erge, they will definitely be cracked down upon, and forcing Spirit Beasts to sign Taming Beast Contracts? That’s under the jurisdiction of Divine Beasts.
Data-based Spirit Beasts without natural habitats currently appearing in illegal trade markets need no explanation, they’d just be eradicated imdiately, as they’re definitely stolen or taken from so Special Duty Team.
To avoid drawing official attention, Veronia believes those underground illegal markets wouldn’t allow Data-based Spirit Beasts to appear in transactions, so, why steal them?
“I don’t know. Although currently, it seems possible, but… I don’t think they now have the ability to truly restrict Data-based Spirit Beasts’ mobility. Don’t forget they can forcibly enter the Data Domain to escape. Currently, there’s no ans to limit the appearance of Data Domain channels.”
Feng Yuan shook his head and said puzzledly, though the Data-based Spirit Beasts are not particularly strong now, catching them isn’t easy. Countries haven’t considered using Data-based Spirit Beasts for intelligence missions precisely because their entry into the Data Domain brings obvious power anomalies.
This anomaly exposes their covert actions, so no country considered using them for espionage, because there’s no necessity.
“Too bad Little Crocodile isn’t here, or else we could send it to find it~”
Smiling slightly, Veronia said maliciously, sighing, Feng Yuan said helplessly,
“Hope nothing bad has happened.”
“Are you planning to head out?”
“To sleep.”
“Yo, now that’s strange. Based on your usual habits, when such things happen, aren’t you supposed to get involved too?”
Seeing Feng Yuan waved his hand and returned to his room with Xiao Ji, Veronia said surprisingly. This clearly isn’t a small matter and is sowhat related to Feng Yuan. She didn’t expect Feng Yuan to completely ignore it.
Stopping and turning to look at Veronia sitting on the Rainbow Bubbles, Feng Yuan said helplessly,
“What am I going for? If soone indeed ssed up, the Special Duty Team can handle it themselves. If it’s sothing major, it’s even less related to , isn’t that within the realm of your Divine Beasts’ responsibilities?”
Rolling his eyes, Feng Yuan said unkindly, although Agunas is still busy with Quine’s matters, Veronia isn’t idle? Additionally, he doesn’t think any major event would occur, though it is weird where the Data Spirit Fox ran off to, he really doesn’t believe anyone would harm the Data Spirit Fox.
After all, the party’s strength isn’t strong, those who can silently invade the Special Duty Team to steal the Data Spirit Fox, Feng Yuan doesn’t think they’d really be interested in the Data Spirit Fox as it stands now.
Not to ntion the Data Domain is still unstable, Data-based Spirit Beasts currently have no particularly dominant areas. Feng Yuan genuinely can’t think of why such a formidable character would do this.
