Chapter 808: Chapter 808 The Contract Issue is Resolved
“Very well, it’s finally completed.” Zhao Guang finished off the last Floating Fish, wiped off some cold sweat, and said.
Originally, he thought capturing the Floating Fish wouldn’t be problematic, but along the way, he realized there were many issues. He had no choice but to handle them one by one, fortunately, his research capabilities paired with his extensive knowledge helped him through.
Otherwise, if it were someone else, let alone a Great Mage, even a Legendary Mage might not be able to solve it.
Of course, a Legendary Mage wouldn’t even care about such things as they don’t own their own territory.
“Master, is this considered completed? So how should the contract be done in the future?”
Upon hearing Xi Fei’s query, Zhao Guang readily responded: “I’ll let Jeana handle this from now on.” Zhao Guang handed a Crystal Stone Plate to Jeana, who quickly reached to take it.
Xi Fei also understood that this was giving Jeana another authority.
Although Zhao Guang treated those around him equally, outsiders may not do the same.
Having authority makes your voice weigh heavier publicly. Jeana’s merits were not adequate yet, and her own strength lacking, therefore possessing some authority would earn her respect.
To prevent situations where people disrespected Jeana, causing discomfort.
Considering a beastman slave being discriminated against in human society was normal.
Xi Fei initially faced similar issues until she became a Great Mage, gaining widespread recognition through her abilities. Jeana might have a better fate, but she similarly requires these resources.
Originally, Jeana was in charge of the Sniper Team, but gradually, as things developed, the Sniper Team merged into the Elemental Archers. Now, letting Jeana directly control the Floating Fish meant enormous power.
Though, perhaps in the future this might become meaningless, as it’s just managing mounts.
By then, Zhao Guang believed Jeana would have become a High Priest.
As for now, the envious gaze from Aleya said it all.
Aleya indeed was jealous, a latecomer as herself, coming from the beastmen’s upper echelons, clearly couldn’t compare with Jeana, a Fox Demon who joined from the start, even if she was a criminal and a slave back then.
These things, even as Aleya watched, she couldn’t help but be envious.
However, she let it go as controlling Floating Fish would stir responses from the Beastman Royal Court. At the very least, acquiring Floating Fish would certainly interest some minds.
“In the future, the contract is divided into three parts, one of which is embedded within the Floating Fish’s bloodline, I’ve already integrated it.”
The crowd gasped in amazement; those unaware remained unfazed, but those with a fair understanding of magic were astounded.
Embedding the contract directly into the bloodline is a technique lost since ancient times. Many cast glances towards Sephidya, believing this to be a legacy from the Dragon Clan’s ancestral memory.
Zhao Guang didn’t bother to explain and let the speculation continue, which was beneficial.
Any future special research yields could be backtracked on Sephidya or the whole Dragon Clan.
As for why other Dragons couldn’t achieve this, not every ancestral memory was identical, and without a bloodline connection, there’s no assurance of memory inheritance, blame it on their ancestors’ inadequacy.
“Another part is this Contract Magic, which operates through Magic Power.”
Zhao Guang flicked a scroll to Jeana, who didn’t hesitate to open it directly, the contract structure was straightforward and could be learned by anyone with Magic Power through minimal practice.
If someone couldn’t learn this, they’d struggle even with regular Magic Scrolls, let alone magic.
“The final part is that Contract Crystal Plate; once a contract with Floating Fish is established, the plate must be used for refinement to fully complete the contract. Upon completion, it results in a weakened Slave Contract.”
No choice, Floating Fish aren’t very bright; using a normal mount contract might not ensure obedience.
Zhao Guang had to reinforce the contract, turning it into a weakened Slave Contract to ensure the Floating Fish complied.
Only by doing this can the Floating Fish be properly trained; otherwise, there’s not much to be done.
“Later, I’ll teach you how to use this Crystal Plate correctly, all contracts going forward must receive your approval.” This signified true power, the authority over contracting flying mounts.
Currently unused, yet when training methods are finalized, everything will become significantly different.
Jeana nodded firmly: “Master, rest assured, I’ll manage these Floating Fish well.”
Those around looking at Jeana had changed expressions; from now on, Jeana ascended to a prominent role, rather than her previous supporting position beside Zhao Guang.
Yet judging from Jeana’s expression, she might still be oblivious to the unfolding scenario.
Ultimately, her age was a bit young, lacking experience, requiring more tempering.
Aleya’s eyes shifted, pondering something. Due to it being important, Aleya couldn’t entirely devote to the Xuanwu Territory.
Fortunately, Zhao Guang didn’t prioritize territory beyond measure; otherwise, anyone would find it unbearable.
Under Zhao Guang’s indication, the Elemental Archers began forming the contracts.
Even if training couldn’t commence, and the Floating Fish had to stay in this place, prioritizing the contract is beneficial. Who knows, delaying might mean the coveted Floating Fish could be chosen by others.
True, the necessity of magic-powered contract and selection stemmed from the Contractor’s own characteristics.
Floating Fish were prepared for the Elemental Archers as they inherently possessed Magic Power, eliminating the need for other considerations. Regarding the future, a specific modification method remained in development.
Once perfected, even some Magic Warriors, by relation, share magic affinity, guaranteeing some Magic Power.
Progressive steps were followed to ensure proper care wasn’t a concern, and Zhao Guang intended to pursue the next phase.
After coordinating with others, Zhao Guang brought Sephidya along, ready for Instant Teleportation again. Initially planning to catch Flying Dragons, but unexpectedly acquired abundant Floating Fish instead.
Due to the excessive number of Floating Fish, he had to prioritize returning with them first.
With prolonged delay, who could predict ensuing events?
Moreover, the Flying Dragon locations found weren’t along the coast, the largest concentration was in the Elf Forest.
