Chapter 115: Chapter 115: Wild Mutation Recognizes Its Master
It wasn’t clear whether it was good luck or bad luck, but Ouyang Yudu and a few people were teleported to the mountain region.
Not long after their journey began, they encountered a group of Four-Winged Grey Crystal Dragons.
With two pairs of dragon wings, the bodies of Four-Winged Grey Crystal Dragons resembled grey quartz. They were over ten meters in length and typically perched on cliffs and precipices. When they lay on the rocky walls, they looked just like a part of them, nearly indiscernible without close inspection.
As soon as Ouyang Yudu and the others entered the territory of the Four-Winged Grey Crystal Dragons, they saw a huge creature plunging down from the mountainside.
Recognizing it as a Crystal-based Creature, the group was quite pleased, thinking that it was a windfall to have such a catch right from the start—it felt like Mr. Tian was feeding them.
But the next second, they saw more than a dozen Four-Winged Grey Crystal Dragons taking flight from the mountain wall, hurtling toward them.
What was more terrifying was that one of them, resembling a phantom green gemstone, was clearly a mutated creature.
The group hurriedly activated their pets and engaged in a melee with the Four-Winged Grey Crystal Dragons.
However, Ouyang Yudu didn’t bring out his pet. Instead, he watched the mutated Four-Winged Grey Crystal Dragon with great interest as a white armor, crystal-like and jade-like, gradually appeared on his body, covering him entirely.
His carapace was quite unique; whereas most Mutator’s armors are fairly simplistic, his resembled a complete suit of armor.
Moreover, there were mysterious patterns on the armor, looking like clouds and mists.
Unfortunately, Lin Shen couldn’t see Bai Shenfei’s armor, or else upon seeing Ouyang Yudu’s armor, he would’ve realized how similar the two were, one with a masculine design and the other with a feminine one.
The mutated Four-Winged Grey Crystal Dragon seemed to sense something too and fixed its gaze on Ouyang Yudu, emitting a dragon’s roar and flapping its wings as it charged at him.
Boom!
The mutated Four-Winged Grey Crystal Dragon, in its high-speed flight, caused a sonic boom, and rings of air explosions formed around its body.
The mutated Four-Winged Grey Crystal Dragon, like a super-jet in high-speed flight, dove towards Ouyang Yudu.
Just before it hit the ground, the mutated Four-Winged Grey Crystal Dragon skimmed the surface, leaving behind afterimages due to its speed.
Just as it was about to crash into Ouyang Yudu, he lightly leaped up and, with seemingly effortless ease, landed squarely on the neck of the mutated Four-Winged Grey Crystal Dragon, his hands gripping each of the dragon horns on its head.
The mutated Four-Winged Grey Crystal Dragon, in its rage, soared straight into the sky, twisting and turning in an attempt to shake off Ouyang Yudu from its neck.
“This breeze feels so good… little Grey Grey… go faster…” Ouyang Yudu seemed to be enjoying himself, unfazed by the mutated Four-Winged Grey Crystal Dragon’s violent rolls and shakes, unable to throw him off.
In the midst of flight, it even flew sideways, its back against the mountain wall, attempting to use the wall to knock Ouyang Yudu off.
With a series of cracking sounds, a few hundred meters long deep scratch was etched on the mountain wall, but Ouyang Yudu still clung on.
Boom boom boom!
The mutated Four-Winged Grey Crystal Dragon accelerated repeatedly, creating circles of air explosions in the sky, but it was still to no avail.
The spectators were dumbstruck, with many from the ordinary bases having never seen such a spectacle, feeling it was insanely reckless.
Ouyang Yudu in the sky, however, laughed unrestrainedly, even letting go of his hands and sitting upright while the mutated Grey Crystal Dragon rushed upwards at high speed, as if enjoying the massive wind pressure head-on, relying solely on the strength of his legs wrapped around the dragon’s neck.
Splash!
Unable to shake him off, the mutated Grey Crystal Dragon suddenly plummeted like an arrow, diving from a kilometer high into a lake, creating waves over ten meters high.
“That’s way too crazy, isn’t Ouyang Yudu going to get himself killed doing this?”
“He probably won’t, he is Ouyang Yudu after all!”
“So what if he is Ouyang Yudu? He’s still human, he can die too; this kind of death-seeking isn’t good.”
“…”
Just as people were talking, they suddenly heard the sound of water splashing, and the mutated Grey Crystal Dragon emerged from the lake onto the shore.
Ouyang Yudu was still astride its neck, both man and dragon completely drenched, with water streaming everywhere.
The Mutated Grey Crystal Dragon’s head bowed, and Ouyang Yudu’s body slid down, lying straight on the ground, motionless as he gazed at the sky.
“What did I say, you played yourself, didn’t you?”
“If you don’t act rashly, you won’t die. Can’t you just behave properly?”
“The Ouyang Family must be devastated. The successor they painstakingly raised has just died like this.”
People watched as the Mutated Grey Crystal Dragon opened its gaping maw, extending it towards the motionless Ouyang Yudu on the ground, thinking it was about to swallow him whole.
The very next second, everyone’s eyes widened in shock.
The Mutated Grey Crystal Dragon didn’t bite Ouyang Yudu; instead, it spat out a small grey-green key from its mouth.
“What did I just see… a wild Crystal-based Creature acknowledging its master… Can humans even do that?”
“I told you so, Ouyang Yudu is Ouyang Yudu, not someone ordinary people can fathom.”
“Damn, wild Crystal-based Creature recognition, what are the odds? And it’s a Mutated Crystal Base, too.”
“Thank the Firmament Projection System for expanding my horizons, is that even possible?”
Under countless envious, jealous, or admiring gazes, Ouyang Yudu reached out and caught the key, but he didn’t put it away.
He sat up and hugged the head of the Mutated Grey Crystal Dragon, his fingers stroking the grey-green scales on its cheek.
The Mutated Grey Crystal Dragon was extremely docile, showing not a hint of resistance.
After releasing the Mutated Grey Crystal Dragon, Ouyang Yudu did something that no one expected—he threw the Pet Key back to the Mutated Grey Crystal Dragon.
The Mutated Grey Crystal Dragon caught the key in its mouth and again bowed its head before Ouyang Yudu.
Ouyang Yudu mounted the dragon, and with a roar, the Mutated Grey Crystal Dragon beat its four wings wildly, soaring into the sky with Ouyang Yudu, heading straight for the clouds.
“From now on, you are my Little Grey,” Ouyang Yudu said as his armor receded, revealing his true appearance. He spread his arms wide, reveling in the rush of the wind against his body.
The dragon’s roar filled the sky, and the Four-Winged Grey Crystal Dragons that had been engaged in battles with other Mutators all stopped, each craning their necks upward, looking at the Mutated Grey Crystal Dragon and Ouyang Yudu in the sky.
This time, Ouyang Yudu became a sensation across the entire world, recognized by all as the favored son of God’s Love Base.
“Young man, being too showy isn’t a good thing.”
“You say that as though you’d like to show off, but you’d need the ability to do so.”
“Before the Firmament Projection System existed, I thought our Super-Base’s Alloy Mutators were already super-strong. Now I see, compared to him, Alloy means nothing.”
“Ouyang Yudu, when I grow up, I’ll marry you—just make sure you keep your first time for me!”
“What do you think, who is stronger, The Great Red Bull Knight or Ouyang Yudu?”
“I think Ouyang Yudu is slightly stronger. A wild Mutated Crystal Base acknowledging a master, have you ever heard of such a thing?”
“I still think The Great Red Bull Knight is stronger. That’s the tough one that makes the entire Ultra-Burning Corps flee on sight, right?”
For a while, all the Super-Bases were talking about this topic, debating who was stronger, The Great Red Bull Knight or Ouyang Yudu.
Those in support of Ouyang Yudu were evidently greater in number, for The Great Red Bull Knight had not truly shown his strength, and to this day, nobody knew whether he was even human.
Not just The Great Red Bull Knight and Ouyang Yudu, more and more young elites on Realm King Planet were demonstrating astonishing talent and combat abilities.
In fact, the humans sent over from the Realm King Cultivation Device were all from Super-Bases, including key successors carefully groomed by major families. It could be said they were the most elite youth out of all humanity at that time.
