World of Beasts: I Can See Their Hidden Stats!

Chapter 127 - : Departure



Chapter 127: Departure

Not feeling the mood to the now-ruined academy, Locke remained at his parent’s house after taking his dinner.

The house that Locke had bought for them was by no means small. Seeing that his parents had returned to their room to rest, Locke headed to his room and rang up the Battle Beast Treasure Tower, he wanted to buy all the materials required for his Infinite Fire Element’s advancement!

“Your payment has been received. The materials are currently in a warehouse in the Holy City. Please give me your address and I’ll send them over immediately!”

More than half an hour later, the materials had arrived at Locke’s parents’ house!

“17 Undersea Flame Fruits… 32 stalks of Regeneration Grass… 43 Elemental Specimens… 11 pairs of Fire Dragon Horns…”

After counting the items, Locke patted the delivery bird’s beak. He had found it rather cute.

At the same time, a row of delivery birds flew past him in the night sky. They were all flying towards the same direction. They seemed to be heading towards the same customer.

One of the birds seemed to be out of sorts, and during its moment of distraction, it accidentally dropped the item in its basket. Coincidentally, the item had landed into Locke’s backyard!

Locke went forward to take a look. It was a chunk of gold!

He immediately summoned Gale Wings to return it. He did not want to trouble the cute birds, after all.

After getting up, Locke realized that the birds were heading in the direction of the academy.

Locke did not know why the academy needed that much gold.

However, he did not find it surprising. After all, there were several wealthy people studying in the academy.

Locke did not pay it much thought. Instead, he carried his materials and returned to his room.

Before long, a burst of divine light enveloped his room.

The System’s interface appeared before him.

“Ding! Congratulations on successfully advancing… ” Once the System’s voice had subsided, a sky-blue interface appeared before Locke:

[ Battle Beast Name: Infinite Fire Element ]

[ Battle Beast Grade: Rose Gold Divine Rank ]

[ Battle Beast Attribute: Fire ]

[ Battle Beast Type: Equipment Battle Beast ]

[ Battle Beast’s New Skill: Fire God’s Armor ]

[ Battle Beast Level: Stage 3, Level 1 ]

[ New Skill’s Description: Not only will Fire God’s Armor greatly increase the host’s defensive power, it will also make the host immune to all type of poisons! However, it will continuously consume mana upon activation… ]

‘Damn, this is amazing!’

It was a skill worth celebrating for. After all, it had granted Locke immunity to poison!

In other words, in the future, Locke would no longer be harmed by any poison-type Battle Beasts!

‘As expected of a divine rank Battle Beast!’

Locke was covered on all fronts now. Be it in defense, attack, or speed, Locke had the right Battle Beast to deal with each situation.

Nevertheless, Locke was in no hurry to level up and enter the silver-tier.

He had no need for more Battle Beasts. Instead, he would rather hone his current Battle Beasts first.

He immediately activated the skill “Fire God’s Armor”!

Interestingly, the Fire God’s Armor was not as domineering and cool as Locke had imagined. Instead, it was very low-key.

Every inch of his skin was covered by a faint flame that was difficult to be noticed by the naked eye.

“It’s not bad, I guess…” Locke was a smart person, and he immediately realized how he could turn his low-profile armor into an advantage.

Satisfied, Locke took a shower and slept soundly.

Three weeks passed quickly, and the reconstruction of the Federal Academy was under way.

In addition to John’s hired construction crew, Hobrick and the students who owned plant-type Battle Beasts had also participated in the construction, which they had treated as a kind of exercise.

Locke’s departure was not attended by many. After all, Locke was the type who preferred to stay out of crowds.

“I won’t be transporting you guys this time. There are two reasons for this. Firstly, the academy currently lacks manpower, and secondly, it,” Tristan said.

“Stay safe guys, remember to contact us…” Diana had one hand on her waist, and her good figure was very apparent.

“Kid, I’ll thank you properly once you’ve returned!” Jacques body was still wrapped in bandages.

Hobrick looked at the three representatives and said, “Although I hope that you can get first place, please remember that your lives take precedence over victory…”

“Oh right, here’s the travel fee…”

Locke looked at the pitiful amount of money in the old man’s hand. His eyelids twitched a few times and he said, “A thousand federal coins? There’s barely enough for meals here? I say, why are you still so stingy?”

“You stinking brat, all you need is bread and milk! Why’d you think it’s not enough?” Hobrick snorted and reached out to take back his money.

Locke stuffed the money into his pocket. “I’ll keep it!”

Everyone covered their mouths and laughed.

Under Adelaide’s request, Löw had rushed to send Locke off. Before his departure, Löw even whispered in Locke’s ear, “I’ve arranged the best train for you according to Master’s instructions. It’s faster than taking a plane. Also… I’ve just transferred 10 million federal coins into your account. Treat it as your allowance…”

Locke nodded in satisfaction. He felt that Adelaide was really sensible. He was quite satisfied.

He had already informed his parents that he would be leaving for a while, so he went straight to the station.

One of the two students accompanying him was from the Diamond Class, but the other one was from the Gold Class.

Locke initially had qualms over the arrangement.

‘The Three Academies Martial Arts Display is supposedly an important event, so why isn’t Hobrick sending a full team of Diamond Class students?’

However, Locke soon got over his gripe. After all, none of his classmates were near his level, and as such, he believed that he would need to bring the team to victory all by himself.

Upon boarding the high-class train, Locke was immediately greeted by a train’s captain.

“Hello, Mr. Locke. Mr. Adelaide has informed me of your arrival. We have prepared the most luxurious carriage for you. In addition to all kinds of delicacies, you’ll also be able to experience the finest accommodations. You will arrive at your destination in a day…”

The three students were the only passengers in the carriage. As such, Locke had plenty of time to interact with his teammates.

“What’s your name again?” Locke turned his head to ask a fat man.

“Captain, we’ve been classmates for months! Don’t you remember me? My name is Lawrence!”

The person from the Gold Class was a delicate-looking girl. She took the initiative to say, “Rosetti! Just call me Rosetti!”

Her eyes were very beautiful, and even somewhat charming. Her figure had already developed completely, which was unexpected of an 18-year-old girl[1].

She was extremely pleasing to look at!

After memorizing the names of his teammates with great difficulty, Locke laid back in his seat and relaxed. At this instant, a beautiful attendant then served the students some dessert.
