Chapter 151: Mythic Mount Appears

The mount egg's hatch progress is increasing bit by bit, already over 93%.

Several friends were wandering separately in War City, and the temporary chat group grew from four to six people.

Soon after, Zhang Fan spoke first in the group, telling everyone: 'I received a quest at the Temple to find a missing Arbiter; there's a small dungeon to clear.'

The small dungeon doesn't need help from Xiao Feng and the others; he can solo it alone.

After a while, a startled cry came from the small group; Dun Dun shouted: 'I got a side-story quest! To track down the remnants of the Abyssal Demon Clan, it's Legendary difficulty!'

Everyone was surprised upon hearing that: 'A Legendary quest? Surely we have to fight a Mythic boss!'

Xiao Feng was a bit excited and hurriedly said: 'Go ahead with the quest, call us if you encounter battle. The demon clan remnants... I estimate it should be a level 200 Mythic leader!'

Earlier, War City was corrupted; Isben and others drove out some Abyssal creatures, then they started fighting Demon King Mihel.

During that time, perhaps some Abyssal creatures saw the situation turning bad and hid nearby; that's easy to understand.

As a side-story quest, the reward for Dun Dun's quest shouldn't be bad; as long as one has the strength to do it, they can definitely gain considerable profits!

After a while longer, Li Li and Xing Yun Miao also received quests.

Li Li's is a hidden quest for the life profession 'Apothecary'; completing it lets one skip beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels, directly reaching Master level.

However, the process is very complicated, requiring a long time of questing to finish.

Xing Yun Miao's is a war quest, needing to go to the Ashen Plains battlefield to save over 100 dying allied NPC soldiers.

Mang Mei's side had no movement at all. If not knowing her quiet, reserved nature, everyone might have thought she went offline.

While everyone was receiving quests, Xiao Feng's mount egg hatch progress had reached 97%.

Shen Di, Candle Dragon, and War Heaven also sent some news.

The three presidents lavishly spent hundreds of millions of gold, basically renting all the first- and second-tier shops near War City's four main thoroughfares.

They each leased for only one year; if they profit, they can just renew within the lease period.

If they don't profit, returning it to the officials after a year also limits losses.

Shen Di brought the most money this time, so the Gods' Guild also became the hottest property on the commercial street, exclusively occupying the key shops on the west and north streets.

Conquest and Dragon Soul respectively occupied the east and south streets.

After sorting out the shops, the three presidents also went their separate ways to do quests, with occasional messages popping up in the small chat group.

Xiao Feng sat at home, yet it felt as if he were watching the entire main city's development, giving him the illusion of commanding from behind the scenes.

After another half hour, Dun Dun said in the group: 'My quest has reached the final stage; now I need to clear an Epic-difficulty dungeon, I can't do it alone, do you have time to come?'

Li Li decisively said: 'Yes yes yes, where are you? I'm coming right away!'

Xing Yun Miao and Zhang Fan also said they were free.

After a while, Mang Mei replied: 'I have to run a long storyline; you guys go fight.'

Xiao Feng originally wanted to say let the five of them try it themselves.

Hearing Mang Mei proactively decline, he couldn't help but feel somewhat emotional.

He guessed this girl probably felt that with one more person in the team, she couldn't help much, so she actively found an excuse to refuse.

This can prevent teammates from squabbling over slots due to jealousy; it can be said to be a relatively sensible behavior.

Thinking carefully, the Epic dungeon is indeed quite hard, second only to a Legendary dungeon like the Lost Land.

The end-of-dungeon boss is undoubtedly a Mythic-level boss, difficult for an ordinary player party to defeat.

Although Xing Yun Miao and Zhang Fan are two God-tier professions, wanting to clear it is still very difficult.

Mang Mei actively gave up her slot, conveniently leaving it for Xiao Feng to bring the few of them.

'I'll be free in 15 minutes; you guys prepare supplies first and gather at a place.' Xiao Feng said.

Dun Dun immediately replied: 'Okay, Senior Xiao Feng! The dungeon entrance is outside the city; I'll wait for you at the East City Gate!'

Li Li curiously asked: 'Old Xiao, what exactly are you busy with? You haven't been staying home these two hours, have you? Are you hiding a beauty in your golden house, at home with an NPC maid...'

'Get lost!' Xiao Feng snapped angrily.

After a pause, he added: 'You'll find out soon; I should be posting on the War Zone Bulletin.'

A God-tier mount—how could I not show off on the War Zone Bulletin?

It's been less than five days since the server opened; surely no one has obtained a mount of higher quality than his.

Perhaps because his mount egg hatches, it could even unlock the mount system, letting other players profit as well!

'What's all this mysterious mystery?'

Upon hearing the four words 'War Zone Bulletin,' the teammates were extremely curious.

But Xiao Feng didn't say, and they had no way to find out.

Several minutes passed quickly; Li Li, Zhang Fan, and Xing Yun Miao successively arrived at the East City Gate and met up with Dun Dun.

Xiao Feng watched the mount egg's hatch progress slowly pass 99%, beginning to count down the two decimal places.

99.94%……

99.95%……

99.96……

Finally, it reached 99.99%!

Mana minus 100, a deduction of 100, and shortly after it became 100%.

Crack~

A clear sound.

A sharp beak pecked through the big eggshell, popping out a fist-sized head.

Then it pecked continuously dozens of times, enlarging the shell's opening, and jumped out from inside.

This is a hawk, about 70 centimeters tall, looking quite large, yet it is a round, chubby chick form.

It has a round head, round eyes, blue-black feathers, looking both dull and cute, while also being a little ugly.

"Ding~ Congratulations, you have successfully hatched the exotic beast egg!"

"You have obtained a mythic-quality mount, and your reputation has increased by 100000 points!"

"Detected that you meet the mount's master acknowledgment conditions; the mount automatically acknowledges you as its master, bound for life, never to leave!"

"The system prompt popped up three times."

"Xiao Feng was in a good mood, waiting for the battle zone announcement to sound."

"However..."

"The announcement channel was silent; nothing happened."

"\"Er, what's going on? \""

"\"Shouldn't a divine mount get an announcement? \""

"\"Who are you looking down on?! \""

"Xiao Feng said gloomily."

"After waiting more than ten seconds without hearing the announcement, he couldn't help feeling a bit disappointed."

"He glanced at the attributes of the little eagle before him."

"【Unnamed (Xiao Feng's mount)】"

"Species: Furious Thunder Divine Eagle"

"Talent: Flight, two-person riding, immunity to lightning"

"Level: 1 (hatchling stage, cannot be ridden)"

"Loyalty: 100 (locked)"

"HP: 1800/1800"

"MP: 100/100"

"Physical Defense: 10"

"Magic Defense: 10"

"Normal Speed: Unknown (needs to reach growth stage)"

"Skills: Thunder's Wrath, Wind-Chasing Lightning"

"Stamina: 60/100"

"The mount's attributes differ from ordinary monsters; it lacks the 'Attack' attribute and has Stamina and Speed instead."

"Xiao Feng looked at the two skill effects of the Furious Thunder Divine Eagle."

"Thunder's Wrath: Releases lightning covering a spherical area with a radius of 50 meters, dealing level*120 true damage to all enemies, and paralyzing them for 5 seconds; cooldown 30 seconds, consumes 50 MP."

"Wind-Chasing Lightning: Increases flight speed by 50% for 120 seconds; cooldown 600 seconds, consumes 50 MP."

"The attack skill deals true damage, feels not bad, just the values are a bit low."

"The speed boost skill is very practical; in the future, when flying, it can greatly increase speed."

"Just looking at these attributes, it obviously doesn't quite match the identity of a divine mount."

"But considering that the Furious Thunder Divine Eagle can fly and its speed might be fast, Xiao Feng is still fairly satisfied."

"\"Lao Xiao, are you done? Why hasn't the announcement gone up yet? \" Li Li asked in the group, urging him on."

"\"Er... \""

"The boast he just made couldn't be fulfilled, leaving Xiao Feng somewhat embarrassed."

"He replied: \"Plans have changed, I'm not going up for now. You all wait a moment, I'll be there right away. \" Afterwards, he took the newly hatched Furious Thunder Divine Eagle and headed straight for the East City Gate."
