Chapter 249 I can see that you have a lot of things that you can’t let go of.

Lu Yao asked Salina to talk about the situation of the beasts in recent years.

“Sir, the strength of disaster beasts is average. When they are born, they are usually around LV20. If left alone, they can grow with natural disasters. The highest level of disaster beasts has appeared at LV36.”

“It was hidden deep in the [Fire of Aegir]. It was a fire-attributed beast. When it ran out after a volcanic eruption, I restored it to the fire element.”

The tyrant stopped short: "Later, I told the snowman to let the pasha deal with the disaster beasts. This would allow the dragon to gain actual combat experience and help it practice dragon language spells."

Lu Yao asked again about the dangers of disaster beasts.

 “They are very dangerous to ordinary people.”

Salina said: "Disaster beasts are different from most extraordinary beings. They are given special powers by rules. Even individuals of the same type have differences, and their behavior is also affected by rules..."

  Disaster beasts are mutant species catalyzed by natural disasters.

For example, the crocodile beast killed by the Pasha was born in the flood, and will further expand the flooded area, causing more rainfall and death. Disaster beasts and disasters feed each other back.

The three cities of the Yao people focus on prevention of disaster beasts. Once discovered, they will send out armored soldiers to destroy them to prevent the disaster beasts from growing further.

 In the first three years, droughts, floods, and fires caused many people to be displaced, and thousands of ordinary people disappeared and died in natural disasters.

 After paying a heavy price, the Yao people quickly took targeted precautions against disasters and beasts.

 In the future, the losses caused by both volcanoes and heavy rains will be greatly reduced.

 Also because of frequent natural disasters, the profession of engineer officially appeared among the Yao people. Engineers renovated homes and levees, restructured canals and farmland, and created fire-resistant slurry coatings that protected many lives and property.

Salina concluded: "Disaster beasts are no longer a problem now. The martial monks and armorers are very experienced in dealing with them. Compared to the disaster beasts, Aedes mosquitoes are more troublesome. Fortunately, the Crystal City was well prepared before the locust awakened." The locust swarms work and they're happy to come and hunt the mosquito swarms."

 Lu Yao felt regretful.

 Sometimes too much development can cause trouble.

This era update is obviously a big cut for the Yao people, but judging from various data around the world, it has risen against the trend. The intensification of natural disasters has actually inspired the creativity of the Yao people.

 Lu Yao looked to the upper right corner.

 Faith reserves have reached 4.35 million

 The total population also exceeded 430,000.

 Population: 430,390

  Yaocheng: 103, 278

  Yancheng: 117,765

  Sanillo: 40,811

 Crystal City: 82, 173

 Ouda City: 23,770

 Canopy City: 58,302

 Others: 4,291

 The current population is nearly three times that before the era update. Even excluding the ghosts of Crystal City and the squirrels of Canopy City, the population growth over the past 36 years has been quite good.

 Lu Yao thought to himself.

Sure enough, with a solid basic base, it will be much easier to operate. Subsequent population growth can bring a lot of fire of faith. The most difficult thing is to start from 0 to 1.

 He turned his gaze back, and the current focus was on finding a disaster beast.

 When disaster is needed, disaster always hides.

Lu Yao couldn't help but look at the item bar. Is he really going to hatch the [Disaster Branch]?

He looked around and suddenly discovered that there were two disaster beasts in the Crystal City. They were biting each other crazily in a farmland outside the city.

One of them is shaped like an eel, LV24, and is a water elemental disaster beast, while the other is an almost extinct sand lizard, LV25, which is an earth elemental disaster beast.

The two ferocious beasts were fighting fiercely, turning the surrounding ground into a sticky quagmire.

White God in the form of a wild boar was watching from the sidelines.

Sensing Lu Yao's gaze, Bai Shen shuddered: "Lord Zhengshen, you are here with great grace, and the little **** is frightened!"

Lu Yao asked him to stop talking nonsense and tell him what was going on here.

Bai Shen said: "Lord Zhengshen, there is a disaster beast outside Crystal City, that is, the sand lizard. It is constantly causing drought outside. The little **** was about to deal with it, but the next door Uda City sent people to ask for help, saying that they There will also be disaster beasts."

“The long snake in Wuda City is causing heavy rains there, which makes the Wuji people very distressed. In addition, the King of Wuji is out on a mission, so the little **** will go there first to deal with it.”

"At that time, the little **** had an idea. Since the disaster beasts have their own territories, if the drought-causing ones and the flood-causing ones collide, will they fight? So the little **** put them together, and they actually fought. I'll kill you."

Bai Shen originally wanted to have fun, waiting until they were almost beaten, and then kill these two sources of disaster.

 Lu Yao said that he was lucky.

　　White God can sometimes play inexplicable and unexpected effects.

Lu Yao recruited the snake to represent floods.

 Throw the big snake over and see if it can bring down rain and improve the overly dry desert.

As for the remaining dry sand lizards, Lu Yao asked Bai Shen to take good care of them first. They could be used as dryers during heavy rains and might be useful in subsequent experiments.

Bai Shen immediately said: "The little **** understands, don't worry, the little **** will take good care of this disaster beast."

 …

After the disaster beast was captured by Isabel, it was released to Yunzhong Temple.

 As soon as the big snake was free, it roared up to the sky, took heavy steps, and moved on the sand dunes, its footprints emitting black smoke.

Although it is only LV25, it also has a special ability in addition to [Advanced Water Element].

 …

  【Water Gathering Beast】

 Can continue to grow in water, and water elements will gather towards it.

 …

Lu Yao observed every move of the disaster beast.

Wherever it goes, some wet water stains appear where its tail passes. It raises its head and opens its mouth wide, trying to collect the water elements of this world.

 It’s just that the relevant rules of Yunzhong Temple are so broken that its hard work is almost ineffective. Not only did the disaster beast fail to bring water, it was dried out in the sun.

 Gradually, the disaster beast showed a kind of irritability.

 Lu Yao didn’t know whether it was because of the power of the rules here or something else.

 In short, this big snake gradually became depressed.

Its snake-like posture in the desert has lost its original majestic appearance and has become slower, with its head lowered.

 When encountering the cockroach, the beast became excited again.

It crushed the weak shell cockroaches along the way, leaving these fragile bugs with wreckage.

After a brief period of excitement, the beast became listless again.

Lu Yao estimated that killing a group of defenseless insects would be like crushing a pile of rocks. It would not bring much pleasure to the beasts.

 Finally, the beast lay motionless in the desert.

It raised its head and looked into the distance. There were identical sand dunes everywhere.

Lu Yao scratched his head.

 This is...depressed?

Lu Yao opened the Golden Fields backend and checked the entry for [Disaster Beast].

 He discovered that it turned out that the disaster beast was affected by the power of rules, causing it to become crazy and aggressive. After arriving at Yunzhong Temple, the disaster beast lost contact with the [rainfall] and [flood] that did not exist here, like a robot with lost commands.

 The good news is that the big snake has regained some of its past self here and gradually became calmer. It no longer kills shell cockroaches.

At this time, the huge Zhike monk swam over from the sand.

“Visitors from afar, Yunzhong Temple welcomes you. The young monk is the guest-knowing monk here.”

 “Do you have a lot of confusion?”

 “I can see that you have a lot of things that you can’t let go of.”

“Practice should be more unrestrained. Being infatuated with a world does not necessarily mean that you will be with it for a lifetime. If you like a cloud, it does not mean that it will always maintain the shape you want.”

“If you don’t mind, please come with me and let me introduce you to the past here. I hope you can find the answer.”

The disaster beast seemed to understand. It hesitated for a moment, then slowly straightened up and followed Zhike Monk.

Zhike Monk chattered all the way and started walking around the world with the big snake.

 This series of developments made Lu Yao feel a little psychedelic.

Yunzhong Temple is indeed a lifeless world, and all the disaster beasts are lost here.

It seems that using disaster beasts to take advantage of the situation is not an option. You still have to write the rules bit by bit yourself.

 Lu Yao sighed.

 At this time, a message appeared on the screen.

　　【A disaster beast has sprouted wisdom and offered you the fire of faith. Your prestige among the disaster beasts has been greatly improved. 】

Lu Yao was stunned.

 He clicked on the entry.

 The screen indeed jumps to the big snake next to Zhike Monk.

 “Thank you for the advice.”

 “This world... is really... really big.”

The monk Zhike just said: "This is Yunzhong Temple, and Yunzhong Temple is like this. My guest, you are good at making water, so you can try it."

 "No...I...I'm too weak...the rules of water...find it difficult..."

 Orochi can already stutter and communicate with Zhike Monk.

Lu Yao realized the new purpose of Yunzhong Temple.

Perhaps we can catch all the disaster beasts and let them compete with the world first, and then Zhike Monk will teach them lessons and correct their thoughts. Maybe they can be transformed into auspicious beasts that actively participate in construction.
