"Are we safe now?" Jiang Shaoxu asked.
She was indeed a little scared. She initially thought the island was just an ordinary troublesome place, but it turned out to be a dragon's lair and a tiger's den. The Manta Ray Evil Birds were still circling in the sky even though they were inside the outpost. They had no intention of leaving just like that. They were only hesitating because they were a little intimidated by the place.
"What should we do now? It won't be long until daybreak. We can't afford to waste any more time here," Zhao Manyan said.
They had to leave when daybreak arrived. After all, a huge group of Featherless Birds were guarding the island. Their numbers were more than ten times the number of Featherless Birds on the island. Once they woke up, they would have no chance of surviving!
"There's a tunnel under the outpost that leads to the hunting ground we used to domesticate the Manta Ray Evil Birds. Most of the Greater Featherless Birds are gathered on the Sky Coconut Trees we planted," Chen Shuo said.
"So you're saying we should go straight to the source of the problem?" Zhao Manyan said.
"Mm, we have to get rid of the Greater Featherless Birds and the Bird Emperor. If the device is still functional, I believe we can separate the Manta Ray Evil Birds and trap the Greater Featherless Birds and the Bird Emperor in the Sky Coconut Trees for now," Chen Shuo said.
"Hey, mister, don't just think about getting rid of a threat for the people. You have to consider how we're going to deal with the Manta Ray Evil Birds and the Bird Emperor even if we manage to kill the Greater Featherless Birds and the Bird Emperor, and the Featherless Birds that have woken up in the ocean. You have to think of a way out first. Otherwise, we should just go back now. It's the wisest choice!" Zhao Manyan said.
"Old Zhao is right. It's true that we have to get rid of the Greater Featherless Birds and the Bird Emperor, but we have to think of a way to deal with their offspring too. Their safety is more important," Mofan agreed.
Chen Shuo immediately fell silent. His mind was filled with thoughts of getting rid of the Manta Ray Evil Birds to prevent them from becoming a bigger threat.
"Niu niu niu niu niu ~!!!!!"
The cries of the Manta Ray Evil Birds were still echoing in the sky. They would occasionally hear the cries of the Manta Ray Evil Birds passing by the tower. It was obvious that some of the Manta Ray Evil Birds were not afraid of the metal. They were trying to find the entrance to the tower.
If it had been ten years ago, the quarantine towers would have been completely sealed off, just in case the tamed creatures betrayed them. However, the buildings were ten years old. It was hard to tell if they were still in good condition. More Manta Ray Evil Birds were circling around the quarantine towers. They would find a way to break into the buildings soon.
"Gentlemen, if you trust me, I have an idea." Chen Shuo said.
"If you have a way, just say it!" Zhao Manyan said.
"As a matter of fact, our project isn't exactly a failure. The Bird Emperor has been living with humans for a long time, so it's quite human now. Apart from the lack of funds, we also failed to tame the Bird Emperor," Chen Shuo explained.
"Mister, we don't have much time. Can you stop talking about the past and just tell us what we should do? If we think it's a good idea, we'll do it. If it's not a good idea, we should leave the island at once. We won't be able to leave once the sun rises. This quarantine tower doesn't seem safe at all," Mubai reminded them.
"Basically, all the Manta Ray Evil Birds here are under the command of the Bird Emperor. In other words, if we can tame the Bird Emperor, which we failed to do ten years ago, not only will we be able to solve the problem of the Manta Ray Evil Birds breeding endlessly, we can also leave this place with the Bird Emperor," Chen Shuo said.
"What kind of plan is that? You already failed to tame the Bird Emperor ten years ago. You had so many technicians, Mages, and equipment back then, yet you still failed to tame the Bird Emperor. How can you expect us to solve the problem ten years later?" Tangyue said.
"That's why I hope you can trust me. I wasn't in charge back then, but I was familiar with the Bird Emperor's personality. If we can tame the Bird Emperor according to my plan, I believe we can awaken some of the Bird Emperor's memories as a Contracted Beast and make it useful to us, "Chen Shuo said seriously. He seemed a little excited too.
"Mister Chen Shuo, are you sure it's still possible to tame the Bird Emperor, who was almost the leader of a horde after ten years?" Mofan asked seriously.
"It's possible. The Bird Emperor's master was my senior. I've been working for him since I was his apprentice. He asked me to take care of Evil Star after he passed away. I was eager to make a name for myself, and I saw the future of the Manta Ray Evil Birds, so I came here. "I was thinking that if my teacher's Contracted Beast could bring about a revolution in the field of Taming Beasts, my teacher would be very pleased. "To my surprise, they didn't focus on taming the Manta Ray Evil Birds after the base was set on the right track. They kept thinking of ways to breed the Manta Ray Evil Birds with purer and stronger lineages. It's why the population of the Manta Ray Evil Birds is so terrifying now. However, I know Evil Star very well. He still has the spirit of a Contracted Beast in his bones. He's willing to be tamed, as long as you follow my plan, and find someone who can convince him, "Chen Shuo said.
"What do you mean by someone who can convince him? Can you do it?" Jiang Shaoxu asked.
"I can't do it. The Manta Ray Evil Birds are very competitive. They won't submit to someone weaker than them. My teacher only managed to sign a Contracted Beast after defeating it with his own strength. There's only one way to convince him, and that's to defeat him with your own strength without resorting to any tricks!" Chen Shuo said.
"There are so many demon creatures that you can defeat, but I don't think any of them will submit to you just because they think you can defeat them. They would rather die than submit to humans, "Mofan said.
"Yes, it's very difficult to convince him. The only advantage is that he was once a Contracted Beast, so he won't reject humans," the old soldier said.
"Mofan, you should be very strong. If the Manta Ray Evil Bird Emperor is intelligent, you should be able to convince it by defeating it. Why don't you give it a try?" Tangyue said.
"But my Contracted Beast Space is full," Mofan said.
