Chapter 211 Chapter210-The Cloud Beast's Pet Egg (2nd update, Cheer me with Power Stones!)
After a moment of contemplation, Adam answered, "It wasn't really a hidden quest. I had taken on a mercenary task from the Mercenary Hall, and during the process, I unexpectedly acquired two pet eggs."
"Upon appraisal, I discovered that these pet eggs were none other than the offspring of the Cloud Beast.
"You're familiar with the Cloud Beast, aren't you, Brother Galewind? "
"It's a creature equivalent to a high-level lord boss. If we could hatch these eggs, I believe their grade would not be any lesser than Night Cycle's Bifrost Thunder Tiger."
John responded with a casual nod.
Indeed, he had heard of the Cloud Beast.
On the Godslayer Continent, many creatures possessed mysterious abilities.
Some were intangible, ever-shifting, while others were innately devoid of any attribute, able to freely transform their energy.
The Cloud Beast belonged to the latter category.
This creature was first sighted by a player near the sea.
Upon seeing the Cloud Beast, perhaps due to its oceanic birth, the system identified it as a water-attributed monster.
However, soon enough, other players reported encounters with this creature in various parts of the Godslayer Continent, each time with different attributes.
This peculiarity prompted widespread discussions on forums until the game's official team provided a definitive explanation.
The Cloud Beast inherently possesses no fixed attribute.
Instead, it adapts its internal energy to the first attribute it encounters.
In other words, its evolution is determined entirely by its initial conditions upon birth.
John chuckled, "You're quite fortunate to stumble upon such a remarkable species."
Adam laughed heartily, "It's all a matter of luck. I never imagined that two random pet eggs I picked up would turn out to be Cloud Beasts."
John cast a puzzled glance at him, "Logically, since you already have the pet eggs, why not just hatch the Cloud Beast? Why seek me out?"
Adam gave a wry smile and explained, "Brother Galewind, there's something you might not be aware of. "
"Hatching the Cloud Beast's pet egg isn't as straightforward as one might think. The conditions for its hatching are quite strict; it requires the pollen of the Aqua Blue Flower for energy stacking."
"And the Aqua Blue Flower? It can only be found in specific regions."
"After obtaining the Cloud Beast's pet egg, I immediately asked the guild members to help locate the Aqua Blue Flower. After tireless efforts, we finally found some leads."
"Rumors say that a player spotted the flower in the Thousand Streams Cave, located north of Storm City. But that area is a recently opened high-level danger zone, inhabited by monstrous creatures well above level 100. That player didn't venture too deep because of the threats."
"To explore such a territory without the support of an expert like yourself, Galewind, even pooling the entire elite forces of both mine and Blue Sea's guilds, would be a gamble."
It then dawned on John.
This pressing need to find him was rooted in these challenges.
John raised an eyebrow, pondered for a moment, and then casually inquired, "Interesting. Does this mean you two have established a full-fledged alliance now? "
"I understand Adam's urgency in seeking the Aqua Blue Flower and exploring the Thousand Streams Cave. But Blue Sea, what's your stake in all this?"
Blue Sea replied with a smirk, "Of course, it's for the Aqua Blue Flower too."
John cast a puzzled glance, but before he could probe further, Adam interjected with a disdainful tone, "Ever since Blue Sea found out I had two Cloud Beast pet eggs, he's been clinging to me like bubblegum, constantly trying to buy one off me."
"Eventually, his relentless pestering wore me down, and I sold one to him."
Blue Sea, not the least bit phased by Adam's sarcasm, retorted with a self-satisfied grin, "We're all friends, aren't we? If there's a good thing, why not share it?"
"Besides, with the system just opening up, you can only bind one pet at a time. What use is that extra egg to you?"
Adam huffed, feigning anger, "Nonsense! Who's to say I wouldn't offer it to another top player in my guild?"
Blue Sea rolled his eyes, retorting, "Stop spewing crap. I did pay you, didn't I? 10 million in hard cash for one pet egg. Did I shortchange you?"
Seeing the two about to bicker again, John rubbed his temples and quickly interjected, "Alright, alright! I've got the picture. I've been rather free lately, so I can accompany you on this journey."
Both Adam and Blue Sea stopped abruptly, exchanged sly winks, clearly reveling in their shared triumph.
After a brief silence, Blue Sea, struck by a sudden thought, curiously asked, "Brother Galewind, don't you have a pet egg too?"
John nodded lightly.
Indeed, tucked safely in his bag was the egg of the Medusa Queen.
The conditions required for its hatching were significantly more challenging than the Cloud Beast's.
Needing the essence blood of eight undead snake lords, John had only managed to collect three types so far.
The goal seemed distant.
Not to mention the need for Abyssal Mire, an item that's virtually impossible to find on the Godslayer Continent...
Thus, John didn't put too much emphasis on hatching his pet egg in the near future.
He'd let things take their course.
Hearing the conversation between Blue Sea and John, Adam's interest was immediately piqued.
With an eager tone, he asked, "So, Brother Galewind has already chosen the pet he wishes to bind with? I wonder what its grade might be?"
Deep down, Adam knew that any creature that caught John's interest must be of top-notch quality.
The common pets would hardly be of any use to a powerhouse like John.
Before John could respond, Blue Sea eagerly jumped in, "I can't speak for others, but if that pet egg were to hatch, its grade would surely be no less than five stars."
Adam took a sharp intake of breath, visibly taken aback.
Such a high grade?
To put it into perspective, the current top pet on the pet leaderboard, the Bifrost Thunder Tiger, only boasts a three-star rating.
And yet, it's widely recognized as the most powerful pet.
The potential of a five-star pet was almost beyond Adam's comprehension.
He gave a wry smile, shaking his head.
After all the effort and scheming, he had finally acquired two Cloud Beast pet eggs, thinking it was quite a coup.
Yet, even before the Pet System was unveiled, John had already prepared for his very first pet binding.
And it was a five-star creature, no less...
John chuckled lightly, "It's not as impressive as you imagine. The pet egg I possess won't be hatching anytime soon. So, regardless of its grade, for now, it's just a decorative piece."
Blue Sea nodded in agreement, lamenting, "True, the conditions required for hatching your pet egg are incredibly stringent... I feel only someone like you could possibly meet them. For any other player, they'd likely just keep that pet egg as an ornament for a lifetime."
Now, Adam was even more curious about the origin of John's pet egg.
Sensing Adam's intrigue, Blue Sea recounted their expedition into the Dark Spirit Realm and their encounter with the Medusa Queen.
Adam was left in awe, repeatedly expressing his astonishment.
John sat quietly, and when the two finished their chat, he suddenly said, "Speaking of which, I do have a favor to ask of both of you..."
Adam and Blue Sea quickly turned their gazes towards John, their faces filled with anticipation.
"Speak freely, Brother Galewind," Adam began, "You've assisted us countless times. Whatever you request, as long as it's within our power, we will give our utmost."
John smiled faintly, speaking nonchalantly, "It's not a grand matter. I simply need you both to issue a command in your respective guilds to help me trace some individuals..."
Both Adam and Blue Sea looked puzzled.
They wondered who could be so important that John would enlist the help of two major guilds to locate them.
"If it's a player," Blue Sea pondered, "you should be able to directly add them as a friend. Since you can't use that method, I presume you're looking for native NPCs?"
John smiled and nodded, "Exactly. I'd like your help in finding an assassin organization called AGHHO..."
"AGHHO?"
Both Adam and Blue Sea shared a glance, their eyes filled with confusion.
They hadn't heard of this organization before.
It was actually understandable; very few players were aware of the existence of AGHHO.
Apart from Wolf Howl, the vice guild leader of the Wolf Guild, who had inadvertently become a disciple of a peripheral member of AGHHO, the rest of the players were pretty much in the dark about this organization.
It wasn't just the low-level players who were clueless; even the native NPCs of Godslayer Continent would likely be unaware of AGHHO unless they had a certain level of power.
John, well-aware of this, gave a brief introduction to the two guild leaders.
Upon learning that AGHHO was the most ancient and mysterious assassin alliance on the Godslayer Continent, both Blue Sea and Adam's expressions turned grave.
From John's tone, Blue Sea ventured, "It seems, Brother Galewind, that you've clashed with this formidable and ancient power?"
The corners of John's mouth curled into a frosty smile, "It's more than just a simple clash. I've already slaughtered several of their core members..."
Blue Sea and Adam instantly regarded him with newfound respect.
