Zhao Manyan crawled inside the huge slime-filled egg and saw the huge Sharkman Beast Infant was staring at him.
'The Sharkmen and Sharkman Beast were supposed to have tiny eyes, but the infant's eyes were surprisingly big.
It was licking its lips, as if someone had delivered food to it again!
"Tm not your food!" Zhao Manyan told it firmly. He took out a colorful crystal ball and tossed it to the infant.
'The infant was intrigued by the round object it had never seen before. It played around with the crystal ball with its clumsy flipper-claws.
Its fins were huge, like a pair of wings in front of its stomach, and looked like they had bones. It used the fins to hold the crystal ball with lightning sparkles and grinned like a human. Drool was falling out of its mouth.
Zhao Manyan used the opportunity to scuttle closer to the Sharkman Beast Infant and put the Contract Ring on its forehead.
'The creature continued to play with the beautiful crystal orb.
Aminute later, Zhao Manyan looked at the creature and the Contract Ring with a puzzled face.
Has the Ring lost its power?, Zhao Manyan wondered. He was trying to figure out what had gone wrong.
After watching and waiting for a while longer, Zhao Manyan was disappointed when nothing happened.
It seemed like the Ring was no longer effective. He did not think his father had stored any useless junk or antiques in his vault…
He thought he could gain a Contracted Beast even though he was not a Summoner, but it was only a useless piece of jewelry!
"Forget it, I won't kill it since it's only an infant. I'l spare your life and hopefully you can tell what's right and wrong and not hurt humans for no reason. If you really have to eat, you should give your prey a quick death instead of learning from your cruel people who enjoy eating their food alive. It's very
disrespectful to a living creature. I hope you remember my words. Otherwise, I won't hesitate to kill you if we meet again. Do you understand?" Zhao Manyan told the Sharkman Beast Infant.
The Sharkmen Beast Infant's attention was on the crystal ball. It completely ignored Zhao Manyan.
Zhao Manyan let out a sigh and climbed back out of the egg.
He still had a mission to focus on.
He wondered why he had been distracted by the filthy insect and followed it to the library out of curiosity, leading him to the giant egg.
Zhao Manyan left the library and went to the archives room in the main building.
He felt strange when he realized he had only seen demon creatures from the sewers around. He had not seen a single Sharkman.
Even the Sharkman Beasts were nowhere to be seen. It did not make any sense to leave an infant behind without any protection?…
Was the infant abandoned? Was it being discriminated against because it had big eyes, while the rest of the Sharkmen had tiny eyes?
Zhao Manyan arrived at the archives as he was thinking such random thoughts.
The archives had a lot of records, including the design of the school's logo. Zhao Manyan was overjoyed. He did not expect to find it so easily.
"Twonder if Mo Fan is doing fine. I should regroup with him," Zhao Manyan murmured as he took the most important files.
He left the school and was about to head to the city center when he heard noises from the library.
Zhao Manyan turned around and saw a huge amount of slimy liquid was pouring out of the library, destroying what was left of the entrance and flowing down the stairs.
A creature with a silver-blue glow to it slid all the way to the entrance of the school and stopped in front of Zhao Manyan.
Its dexterous fins were still holding a colorful crystal ball.
It threw the crystal ball up and hit it toward Zhao Manyan with its head.
Zhao Manyan almost dropped his jaw when he saw the creature, even as he subconsciously caught the crystal ball.
'The Sharkman Beast Infant clapped with its fins like a dolphin. It used its tail to support itself so it could reach Zhao Manyan's height.
Zhao Manyan was bewildered. Why did this little creature come to him? Was it a coincidence?
"Go, fetch it!" Zhao Manyan threw the crystal ball into the air.
The crystal ball flew over the library and went further away.
The creature clapped excitedly with its fins to give Zhao Manyan applause, but it did not seem to have any intention to fetch the crystal ball.
Zhao Manyan's face darkened. Was the creature treating him as its pet and clapping to cheer him up?
"That's the factory producing your food. Go and feed yourself!" Zhao Manyan pointed at the main building that was swarming with insects.
'The creature slid across the dried grass quickly, like it was swimming in water.
It went to the main building Zhao Manyan had pointed at and began feeding on the bugs. Zhao Manyan could occasionally hear the squeals of the insects from inside the building.
Zhao Manyan quickly left while he had the chance.
If the creature's mother came back, she would surely tear him into pieces and make him into a bow! of human porridge for her kid!
Zhao Manyan scanned the skies above him as he arrived at an intersection.
Luckily, nothing strange or ferocious was chasing after him. His first priority was to regroup with Mo Fan.
A huge figure suddenly appeared in the window of a shop behind Zhao Manyan, its fangs jutting out. It looked like the mix of a bear and a boar.
It smashed through the window and charged at Zhao Manyan as he was walking along the street.
Zhao Manyan reacted quickly and was about to protect himself with a shield when he spotted another figure approaching him rapidly.
He was being flanked!
Zhao Manyan did not expect to walk into an ambush, but he was shocked by what happened next.
'The second creature opened its mouth and bit down on the Lance Spine Bear's neck. It pushed the creature down and forced it to the ground.
Zhao Manyan's eyes widened when he took a closer look at the creature with such insane strength.
Isn't this the Sharkman Beast Infant?
