With his mask on, Lin Jin came in and noticed the two newcomers at first glance.
'New visitors?' He was in a good mood.
The benefits Lin Jin would reap from this Visitation Hall were obvious. Had it not been for this place, it would have been at least ten times harder to achieve a perfect evolution for Xiao Huo.
It was thanks to this place that he gained a source to gather materials and borrow the strength of his visitors to resolve issues in times of trouble.
Upon seeing the arrival of the Curator, the six existing visitors paid their respects in a serious manner."Greetings, Curator."
Their actions were in unison and their voice resounding.
This simply stunned the two newcomers. Needless to say, Feng Ziqian had no idea what was going on.
Visitor number twelve was also startled. She stared curiously at the person who emerged from the metal door on the second floor.
Lin Jin was pleased. With the Visitation Hall gradually developing, the benefits he would obtain grew wider.
Lin Jin was now used to it. To him, it didn't matter who showed up at the Visitation Hall because they would all submit to him in the end. Just like Black Crow, Old Tian, and Ghost Child, all menacing characters in the beginning. Didn't they surrender to him eventually too?
The rule of the Visitation Hall was simple. No one would inquire about each other's background. Everyone could keep their secrets or stay completely silent. Anyone that is seeking an appraisal would have to provide 'compensation for it.
It was simple and fair.
Lin Jin asked, "Were they briefed of the rules?"
Old Tian was the quickest to respond, saying, "Yes, Curator, we've told them about it. Though one of them doesn't seem like he believes what we told him, and the other one has remained silent this entire time."
"It's fine. What matters is that they're informed of the rule." Lin Jin swept a glance at the newcomers.
Neither had pet beasts with them.
The one who had cultivated Beastmaster Scroll before had an amazing companion. Judging by the creature's aura, it should be a Rank 4.
The quality of this new visitor wasn't bad at all.
But the woman was rather unique.
While it seemed like she didn't have a pet beast, things were more complicated than they seemed on the surface. Nothing could deceive the current Lin Jin anymore. For now, he decided to ignore the newcomers for a bit.
He looked at Old Tian, then at the tyrannosaurus behind him who had undergone major changes. Surprised, Lin Jin asked, "Old Tian, when did your pet beast evolve?"
Lin Jin didn't know about this. For the sake of cultivating the Carrier Cloud, Lin Jin had come and left so quickly the last time. In the end, it was the other visitors who helped Old Tian out because he ran into some problems. In the process, he scored a lucky hit by successfully evolving his pet beast.
Lin Jin was astonished.
After all, evolving a Rank 3 beast to Rank 4 wasn't easy.
Old Tian immediately explained his previous predicament while Ye Yuzhou and the others chipped in, filling in Lin Jin on the details.
Sure enough, Lin Jin sounded surprised by the turnout of events.
He stared at Old Tian for the longest time before saying, "You're really lucky."
Lin Jin was right. Old Tian was lucky.
Despite them following his written instructions, it was still a Rank 3 to Rank 4 evolution. They even used several types of bestial blood to stimulate the evolutionary process.
Under regular circumstances, they would have inevitably failed.
And yet, they succeed. This was undoubtedly a one-in-a-million situation where their luck meter just hit the roof.
Of course, it was also vital that they had done this inside the Visitation Hall.
This Visitation Hall possessed the museum's aura which managed to increase its success rate.
"Anyway, as long as the evolution was a success." Lin Jin leaped down from the second floor and made a beckoning gesture. Old Tian's tyrannosaurus obediently trotted over, nudging its head toward Lin Jin.
Lin Jin reached over to touch the tyrannosaurus' head, acquiring his details.
Good boy!
Even Lin Jin was amazed.
He already knew how powerful this tyrannosaurus could get, but to think it would be this strong. What an incredible turn of events.
A Rank 4 mutant devilosaurus with diverse attributes. Simply put, the creature's strength was a combination of Black Crow, Ye Yuzhou, and Ghost Child's pet beasts. To put it more bluntly, the strongest pet beast in this Visitation Hall wasn't the black falcon, soaring cloud flood dragon, or babyface spider anymore, but this mutant devilosaurus.
Old Tian's luck was indescribable. However, given how he personally lacked strength and how insignificant his blood contract level was, he couldn't fully utilize the potential of his mutant devilosaurus. If he could, he would be on par with Madam Ghost Child.
However, Lin Jin didn't plan on telling Old Tian about this anytime soon.
As a person, Old Tian still needed more polishing.
Lin Jin then turned to Ghost Child."Zombie Cthulhu is fine now. Have Coffin Man come and get him."
This delighted Ghost Child.
Next, they conducted the usual Q&A session. Ghost Child and the others knew the rules so they had DNA samples of pet beasts with them so Lin Jin could answer their inquiries about the beast in question.
The two newcomers simply observed their exchange in a corner, watching and listening.
As the third prince of Heavenly Spiral Kingdom, Feng Ziqian was an unsurprisingly knowledgeable person. He could tell just by listening that the masked man, whom everyone addressed as 'Curator', was pretty skilled at his job.
At least when it came to pet beasts, no question posed as a challenge for him.
Feng Ziqian personally knew most of the Rank 4 beast appraisers in his country. The Curator's knowledge on Rank 4 pet beasts didn't pale in comparison with the Rank 4 beast appraisers he knew.
'Where exactly is this place? Who are these people?'
Feng Ziqian could now tell this probably wasn't his brothers' doing, nor was it his father's.
If this was a trial set by his father, there must be some sort of aim. They would surely try to test him, but Feng Ziqian couldn't see what trait he was being tested for now.
The ability to adapt?
Definitely not.
His mentality?
Didn't seem like it.
In addition, although the Heavenly Spiral Kingdom was a premium country with more than one Rank 5 pet beast serving as its guardian, those who owned Rank 4 pet beasts weren't to be taken lightly either. And yet, Feng Ziqian didn't recognize a single one of these people who owned Rank 4 pet beasts. He had never even heard of them before.
If they were citizens of his kingdom, he would have known at least one or two of them. Of course, these people could also have been transferred from secluded cities as well, that was a possibility.
'Let's keep observing. ' Feng Ziqian decided to stick to consistency to counter impermanence.
Once Lin Jin was done answering the group's questions, he turned to the newcomers.
"Newcomers, do you have any questions?" Lin Jin inquired.
No one spoke up. However, the new visitors had certainly undergone changes. The initially pompous visitor number eleven was acting cautiously and there was an obvious hint of hesitation in his eyes. At the moment, he seemed to be in a state of deep thought. Meanwhile, Lin Jin found visitor number twelve to be most interesting.
Since the beginning, her expression and emotion had remained constant.
Reflected in her eyes was what Lin Jin would describe as 'despair'.
