To Kieran, after acquiring the Pawn Fire Raven egg, [Merman's Meat]'s existence became the food to increase the Pawn Fire Raven's strength.
The gains that he got before this were just going with the flow.
Although he had the heart of a stingy ghost, Kieran wouldn't lose the bigger picture because of the smaller gains.
One was a helper that could grow stronger.
The other was a plan that would waste time and effort with low returns.
There was no need to think about which one to choose.
Of course, if the plan was laid out properly, it wasn't impossible to get higher returns.
However, after meeting Ai Little, Kieran discarded the thought.
Even with Ai Little's strength, he couldn't run rampant in this dungeon world, what was Kieran to him?
No matter how good the plan was, unexpected changes would happen.
It would be better to utilize the current resources to increase his own strength.
A bird in the hand was worth ten birds in the bush, Kieran understood the saying a long time ago.
The moment [Merman's Meat] appeared in Kieran's hand, the Pawn Fire Raven became anxious but it didn't move recklessly.
Kieran nodded quietly.
When he first hatched the Pawn Fire Raven, other than the fact that it was a fiend and could serve as a scout, it was also because of the intelligence described in the books.
Naturally, it couldn't be compared to humans.
Still, it was much stronger than common animals and fiends.
"Go!"
After giving the order in his heart, Kieran felt the Pawn Fire Raven jump towards the [Merman's Meat] excitedly. As if it was inhaling air, [Merman's Meat] swiftly vanished and when it was all gone, the black raven with a hint of red in it started to change again.
Its size didn't change much but the red color increased.
If it was just a hint before, now it was a smear. The smear of red in the black didn't make the Pawn Fire Raven look bad, quite the contrary, it added an extra sense of majesty to it.
The other change was its beak and claws, they were sharper and reflected a cold glare under the sunlight.
[Name: Pawn Fire Raven]
[Type: Fiend]
[Rank: Medium]
[Attack: Average]
[Defense: Weak]
[Attributes: 1. Agility 2; 2. Transform Fire 2; 3. Flame Spit]
Special Effect: Mutual Fusion 2
[Prerequisites: First sight]
[Remark: This is a matured Pawn Fire Raven, after consuming a High Fiend's flesh and blood, it has evolved once. It can be used for scouting, communication, and even assisting in attacking missions.]
…
[Agility 2: Flying speed + 1, agility + 1]
[Transform Fire 2: Able to transform into an Average attack fire, attach and float in the air]
[Spit Flame: Spit out a Weak fireball as a ranged attack (no further than 30 meters), 3 times per day]
…
[Mutual Fusion 2: Fuse with the flames of its companion or user, strengthening the flames to a certain extent.]
…
"Swiftness still increases speed and agility?"
"Could it be that I can't directly obtain the effect of Agility Level increase because I'm flying?"
"Or is it because I'm not demanding enough?"
Kieran looked at the transformed Fire Raven with satisfaction.
At least, as the remark mentioned, the Pawn Fire Raven could support attacks.
Although [Spit Flame] was weak, it would still have a miraculous effect if it was used unexpectedly.
As for [Mutual Fusion 2]?
Kieran believed if the Pawn Fire Raven consumed a High Fiend's flesh and blood, it would evolve to the point where [Mutual Fusion 2] would provide precise information such as' fire attack level + 1 'instead of such a vague description.
"High Fiend's flesh and blood eh?"
Kieran muttered to himself as he headed outside.
The servant who had brought him here had been standing there waiting for him for some time.
It seemed like Ai Little wouldn't see him again.
Even though he still thought Ai Little was the thief calling for the thief to chase after the painting, it was useless for him to stay and wait.
Might as well go and investigate that terrifying presence.
Since it was related to [Special Event] and it would affect the main mission, Kieran wouldn't neglect it.
Since the clue had appeared, he must seize it.
Kieran returned to where he came from.
Oaker was still at the bottom of the stairs.
He was looking at Kieran who came down in a hurry, especially the Fire Raven on Kieran's shoulder. Oaker was curious but he didn't ask anything.
He knew it wasn't the right time to ask.
Kieran and Kieran went back to the walking car.
The captain of the bodyguards escorted both of them to the mansion's gate.
"How was it?"
Oaker couldn't hold back his question any longer after they went back to his car.
"Let's walk and talk … I'll point the way!"
Kieran said.
Other than the guesses in his heart, Kieran didn't hide much from the inspector and told him everything that happened after both of them parted ways.
"Sssss!"
Oaker gasped when he heard that the famous millionaire Ai Little was able to resist the natural disaster, he felt like he was in a dream.
"I'm starting to believe those legends now. It's not impossible for the whole Flame City to be built around such a big figure!"
Oaker exclaimed.
Kieran didn't refute, he already believed the legend when he saw the thick and huge figure in the lake.
As for now?
He was almost 70 to 80 percent sure.
If he could find more evidence, he would believe it without a doubt.
"Legends … Maybe it's just a rumor but the original version of the story should be the truth."
Kieran said slowly. Then, he looked at the rear-view mirror on his side.
He noticed someone was following them.
It started when they left Ai Little's mansion.
However, the person had quite a decent disguise technique, he didn't show any malicious intent but his tracking technique was a little bad.
Although the whole tracking process was faint, the car didn't change.
A careless person might not notice it.
But for Kieran, who was on high alert most of the time, he was sure he was being followed after two minutes.
Not only did Kieran notice it, so did Oaker.
"Troublesome!
What should we do now? "
Oaker muttered before looking at Kieran.
"Don't mind him, follow the direction I point at!"
Kieran said.
Oaker looked at Kieran with a strange gaze.
Based on his understanding of Kieran, Kieran wasn't a good-tempered person. He might not seek revenge for the smallest grievance but a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye.
Yet, he didn't care about the stalker at all.
"Is the place we are going that important?"
Oaker thought in his heart but he didn't ask.
He was getting on in years, although his body was weak, his experience was bountiful.
Oaker had long since understood what could be said and asked, and when to shut up.
So, Oaker stepped on the pedal.
The engine roared and the car sped up.
Soon, Kieran saw his destination: a temple that didn't look that big from the outside.
On top of the temple gate and under the eaves, there was a board with mottled words.
