Global Beast Mastery: Only I Can See the Hints

Charles walked to the entrance with the rare metals prepared by the Seven Kingdoms Merchant Association.

Yana, with a rosy complexion and a satisfied expression, called out to Charles's back, "Mr. Charles, if you need anything, feel free to come find me!"

As Charles made his way toward Cyber Academy, he pondered the events that had just taken place, feeling much calmer now that his emotions had been released.

By the time he returned to Cyber Academy, it was almost time for class.

"Charles, what's wrong? You seem a bit tired." Jace remarked as he looked at Charles.

Charles, with a blank expression, replied, "It's nothing. I had a dream during the lunch break, and I'm a bit tired."

In front of him, Camilla immediately lowered her head and said softly, "Charles, I have some energy-restoring miracle drug here. Would you like to give it a try?"

Charles quickly declined. He only looked a bit tired, in reality, he was perfectly fine.

After the afternoon classes ended, Charles eagerly made his way to the training room and took out the rare metals he had just purchased.

[Blackrock Sand [orange-quality]: A mixture of various rare metals, Blackrock Sand is a special metallic material with a wide range of uses.]

Using orange-quality metal as food for Little Gold felt a bit wasteful, but he hadn't found any other rare metal materials, and since Little Gold was about to undergo an upgrade, this was the only option.

A hexagram array lit up, and Little Gold's figure appeared in the training room.

Now, it had grown to about one and a half meters in length and looked quite fierce. Its sharp claws, the metallic sheen of its scales, and its golden pupils added an indescribable aura.

Little Gold looked truly extraordinary!

As soon as Little Gold emerged, its gaze briefly lingered on Charles before quickly shifting to the [Blackrock Sand] placed nearby.

Without Charles needing to say anything, it swiftly climbed over and began to devour it eagerly.

[Ding! Little Gold has devoured orange-quality metal. It is very happy, loyalty +5.]

Watching Little Gold eat, Charles shifted his attention to the information prompt in front of him.

——[Savage Gold-Eater Beast]——

[Attributes]: Gold

[Level]: Lv18

[Quality]: Diamond

[Skills]: [Metal Devour], [Body Enhancement], [Rapid Recovery]

[Weakness]: Abdomen / Wood Attribute

[Hobby]: High-quality rare metals

[Emotion]: Good

[Health]: Good

[Loyalty]: 78

[Evolution]: 5 routes

[Description]: This is a very rare Gold-Eater Beast that has awakened its savage bloodline. It can continually enhance its defense, physical strength, and recovery abilities through Metal Devour.

As Little Gold finished eating, suddenly another information prompt appeared.

[Ding! Your mystical beast Little Gold has gained 30 experience points through Metal Devour. Level up!]

Charles looked at Little Gold's information, and indeed, there was a change.

[Level]: LV19 [View Promotion Materials].

Promotion Materials: Gold attribute beast core [Second Tier] ×6, orange-quality rare metal materials ×10kg, Golden Stone ×1.

Gold attribute beast cores are very easy to find, and I should be able to purchase them directly from the Alchemy Guild or the Seven Kingdoms Merchant Association.

As for orange-quality rare metal materials, that will take more time. Ten kilograms is not a small amount, and it cannot be prepared in a short time, it will require some time to collect.

Thinking of this, Charles immediately made a move and quickly picked up Little Gold, who was still eating.

"Stop eating! You need to save this for your promotion! We'll find more later."

Charles hurriedly put away the remaining [Blackrock Sand], but his speed was a bit slow.

There was only about a kilogram of [Blackrock Sand] left, which meant he still needed to find nearly 9 kg of orange-quality metal materials.

As for the last item, the [Golden Stone], Charles hadn't heard of it before.

He took out his phone to search for information and found that there was nothing related online, indicating it was another hard-to-find item!

After thinking it over, he decided to send a message to Teacher Colton, carefully asking about the information on the [Golden Stone].

Soon,

Teacher Colton replied to the message.

It turned out that the [Golden Stone] was not of high quality, it was merely a purple-quality item.

However, due to its scarcity, it was harder to obtain than typical orange-quality alchemy materials.

There was a place near Genosha Calivia called the Golden Mountain Range, which was rich in various ores, gold attribute alchemy materials, and a special mineral known as the [Golden Stone]!

Aside from being mined manually, it could only be obtained from the [Giant Armored Pangolin].

As for manual mining, that route was no longer viable. A year ago, a massive earthquake struck the entire Golden Mountain Range, causing the mine tunnels to collapse. No one could enter the underground depths to mine for [Golden Stone] anymore.

Charles sighed. It seemed the only option left was to obtain it from the [Giant Armored Pangolin].

He perked up and carefully examined the information that Teacher Colton had sent.

The [Giant Armored Pangolin] was a fifth-tier ferocious beast that liked to burrow in the mountains.

They had a peculiar habit of collecting various ores and carrying them on their backs.

Not every [Giant Armored Pangolin] had [Golden Stone] on them, so Charles would have to rely on luck.

If he was fortunate, defeating a few [Giant Armored Pangolins] might yield a [Golden Stone]. If he was unlucky, he might scour the entire Golden Mountain Range and find nothing!

"There's nothing we can do, Little Gold. Your promotion materials are really hard to come by!"

Charles sighed as he looked at the somewhat confused Little Gold, then quietly returned it to the Beast Mastery space.

He also sent messages to Owen, the president of the Alchemist Guild, and Danel, the president of the Seven Kingdoms Merchant Association's Genosha branch.

He asked both of them to help him look for orange-quality metal materials, and he was willing to accept a premium!

Next, he needed to find a time to leave Genosha Calivia and head to the Golden Mountain Range to search for that [Golden Stone].

"By the way, there's also a mission from the [Dawn] organization. I heard it's near Genosha Calivia. I should ask about it, it might be on the way."

Charles thought of something and quickly sent Cecilia a message to inquire about the specific mission details.

Soon, Cecilia sent him a file. When he opened it, he found that the mission location was right near the Golden Mountain Range!

However, it was strange that the file didn't specify the exact task, it simply mentioned finding someone named "Drake."

Completing the other party's challenge and obtaining an item would count as successfully completing the mission!

"Drake? A challenge?" Charles noted the information in his mind.

In the dean's office of Cyber Academy,

Lost in thought, Charles arrived at Dean Jamie's office and knocked on the door.

"Come in!" Jamie's voice called from inside.

Charles walked in and noticed that, besides Jamie, Teacher Hale was also present.

Hale seemed like a different person now, the most noticeable change was in his eyes. They were no longer dull and lifeless but instead filled with hope and motivation.

It seemed that the lifting of the curse had rekindled his hope of becoming a powerful Beast Master.

Charles shared with Jamie his plans to go to the Golden Mountain Range in a couple of days, as well as the task from the [Dawn] organization.

"Drake? I think I have a vague impression of him. He's a rather eccentric person who lives alone near the Golden Mountain Range." Jamie frowned, as if he recalled something.

It turned out that Jamie had encountered this Drake before, and they had even fought against each other. As an eighth-level Beast Master from the Cyber Academy, Jamie had gone all out but still couldn't match Drake!

What's more critical is that the other party didn't summon any mystical beasts throughout the fight!

"He didn't summon any mystical beasts? Dean, is this person really that powerful? I wonder who's stronger, him or Teacher Ezra?" Charles asked.

Without a moment's hesitation, Jamie replied, "That's a no-brainer. Your teacher can summon divine beasts and would wrap up the fight in no time!"

At that moment, Hale let out a sigh and said slowly, "Dean, I plan to go out for some training in a couple of days and look for Uncle Ezra's whereabouts."

It had been a few days since they discovered that Ezra was in trouble.

The [Dawn] organization claimed to have information about Ezra, but no matter how much Charles inquired, they wouldn't say anything.

They only stated that while Ezra was facing some issues, he was not in any life-threatening danger, so there was no need to worry.

"Are you planning to head to the Golden Mountain Range? How about this: I'll arrange for a seventh-level Beast Master to protect you in secret, so you'll have some ability to defend yourself in case of danger." Jamie said slowly.

His primary concern now was Charles's safety. After all, the [Constellation] organization had suffered a heavy blow, and they might seek revenge, necessitating his presence at the Cyber Academy to handle various matters.

Jamie even thought about personally escorting Charles to the Golden Mountain Range to search for the [Golden Stone].

Charles scratched his head, having a high-level Beast Master providing protection was definitely better. Although the Taylor family had been wiped out, it was still wise to remain vigilant. Ensuring safety was always a priority.

"I wonder which teacher it would be?" Charles asked.

Jamie pondered for a moment before replying, "Teacher Ruby is earth-elemental and can provide strong protection. How about her?"

"Of course, that sounds great. I'll get in touch with Teacher Ruby later." Charles nodded.

Compared to the other teachers, the mature and experienced Teacher Ruby was certainly more suitable, and they had had several in-depth exchanges, making their cooperation more seamless!

"Once I finish dealing with the Taylor family and the [Constellation] organization, I'll head over immediately." Jamie added.
