Chapter 131: Chapter 013: The Bound Birthing Machine
As Liszt approached on horseback, he witnessed a rather shocking scene.
Douson was actually riding on the Fierce Earth Dog, which prompted Liszt to grimace disdainfully.
He turned his head and asked, “Teacher Marcus, Douson should only be about half a year old, right?”
“When we found Douson, it hadn’t even opened its eyes yet, it was definitely newly born not long ago. Thus, Douson won’t be that large; it definitely isn’t a year old yet, at most seven months.”
“A seven-month-old dog can do this kind of thing?”
Marcus rarely smiled and said, “My lord, dogs are definitely different from humans; for Douson’s age, it is indeed a bit early, but it’s not uncommon. It can only be said that Douson has developed well, and with the stimulation of the Bloodline Fruit, it should have reached full maturity.”
Liszt had raised dogs back in his hometown, but that was when he was a child.
Besides, no one really cared about the rural mutts.
Hearing Marcus’s explanation, he also let go of his surprise.
Standing not too far away, he enjoyed an action-packed show.
“My lord, should we take this opportunity to shoot this Female Tyrant Earth Hound dead?” Marcus picked up his bow and arrow, eager to try, at this moment the Female Tyrant Earth Hound was a living target.
“Don’t!”
Liszt immediately stopped him.
“Teacher Marcus, figure out a way to capture this Female Tyrant Earth Hound alive and keep it in the castle. Now it seems that Douson has come of age and can reproduce. Perhaps I can obtain a group of Fierce Earth Dogs.”
“But the Female Tyrant Earth Hound is already wild and dangerous.”
“Then tie it up, secure it with iron chains, declare the surrounding twenty meters as a forbidden zone and build a Rock wall around it. After it gives birth to a batch of puppies, then take the puppies away… In any case, Fierce Earth Dogs are not abundant on Coral Island, and Douson ultimately needs a female dog.”
“That’s one way to do it.” Marcus nodded, then turned around and told the Retainer Knights, “Bring out the net. Jim, York, take the tree on the left, Philip, Sean, take the one on the right, Zavier, Tracy, take the one at the back… When the Fierce Earth Dog tries to escape, immediately net it!”
The knights immediately approached cautiously and climbed up the trees, each holding one end of the net, ready to cast it.
About twenty minutes later.
The two Fierce Earth Dogs naturally separated.
The Female Tyrant Earth Hound turned to flee at once, but Marcus, who was prepared, immediately ordered, “Ready the net!”
The knights immediately threw the ropes in their hands, and a large net enveloped the Female Tyrant Earth Hound. It was fast, but not faster than the knights who were prepared.
It was directly covered by the large net.
In a panic, it released Magic, with Rock Spikes piercing the ground one after another, but these Rock Spikes only pushed the net up and couldn’t pierce through it. It struggled to run but got increasingly tangled in the net until it was tightly bound and unable to move. Rock Spikes protruded everywhere until, exhausted of its Magic Power, it couldn’t break free.
“Woof woof!”
Douson simply watched from the side, neither pouncing to attack nor walking away. It only barked at the Female Tyrant Earth Hound from time to time, with unclear intent.
“It should have run out of Magic Power, go down and tie it up, first muzzle it,” Marcus tested a few times, concluding.
Very soon, the Female Tyrant Earth Hound was tied up securely, especially its mouth. Even if it regained Magic Power, it couldn’t easily use Magic.
“Woo woo…”
The Female Tyrant Earth Hound, with its mouth and limbs bound, kept growling angrily, but its fate was already sealed—to become Douson’s toy, a breeding machine for Fierce Earth Dogs.
“Woof woof!”
Douson wagged its tail, circling and barking around the Female Tyrant Earth Hound, seemingly comforting it.
“That must be the last Magical Beast, right?” Liszt silently summoned the Smoke Mission, using it to judge the situation, as it was the most direct manifestation.
However, the Smoke Serpent Script showed no change.
“Mission: You have launched an attack, determined to eradicate Thorn Ridge to create a peaceful new environment for Fresh Flower Town. So keep up the momentum and slaughter all the Magical Beasts of Thorn Ridge. Reward: Li Dragon Horse Herd’s tracks.”
He frowned slightly, “Are there more Magical Beasts?”
Having thoroughly combed through Thorn Ridge, with the help of the Eye of Magic, he reasoned he should have found any Magical Beasts within his field of vision.
It seemed that some Magical Beasts had managed to evade the purge while his Eye of Magic was recovering.
“My lord, we’re nearing the seashore, should we go back?” Marcus asked.
Liszt pondered for a moment, then said, “No rush, keep going forward, let’s take a look at the seashore. I heard from Kostor that there is a deepwater port nearby, which is perfect to check out. We can start planning sooner and get a dock built for Fresh Flower Town.”
“As you wish.”
The team continued its journey.
Douson, enticed by beauty, lost interest in hunting, and circled the bound Fierce Earth Dog for the entire trip. Fortunately, the journey was smooth, with only a few wild beasts seen before they reached the seashore. After walking along a difficult rocky path by the sea, they arrived at the location Kostor had mentioned.
It was a hundreds-of-meters-wide rocky beach, with rocky mountains on both the left and right. Only the middle part was laden with rocks of various sizes, which could be cleared out to create a flat area with a little effort.
Kostor had not lied.
A large port could not be built here, but there was no problem constructing a medium or small-sized dock.
After walking around among the rocks, Liszt immediately had a plan in mind: “On our way back, we’ll head straight towards the Cow Farm, find a flat path first, instruct the Lumberjack Team to start clearing trees from this spot as soon as possible, and open up a road to this place. The stones near the dock could be hauled back for road paving.”
“Here will be the starting point for Fresh Flower Town’s future,” he gestured around the rocky beach.
