Chapter 157 Reynold
“Let’s go!” Wade called towards the distracted Leylin.
“What, do you like these guys?”
Wade pointed at a creature in front of Leylin that looked like an elephant, but had a layer of white feathers on its body that appealed to Leylin.
“I’m very interested in these kinds of strange creatures!”
Leylin gave a slight smile while he made a decision. He would come here often and look around, and if he was lucky enough, there might even be a few creatures with ancient bloodlines!
“Come on!”
Wade brought Leylin to where two gigantic Dragon Crown Nighthawks were.
These huge birds that resembled eagles had steely black feathers covering their bodies and their necks were dyed red. On their head, there was a beautiful protruding bone in the shape of a crown.
Wade unlocked the bronze collar on the Dragon Crown Nighthawks’ necks and tossed one of the green metal sheets Leylin.
“This is the key to controlling them. Come, let us leave!”
Leylin climbed on one of the Nighthawks’ backs in curiosity. On its back was the leather saddle of a mount. It seemed to be manufactured for the comfort of the riders.
Leylin sat on the saddle and willed a trace of his spiritual force to enter the green metal sheet.
The moment his spiritual energy touched the metal sheet, Leylin could feel his mind instantly connecting with the Nighthawk.
The Nighthawk’s mind was very simple, and it was only able to receive commands such as fly, drop, increase speed, turn, and so on. Its intelligence was similar to that of a child of around seven or eight years of age.
[Dragon Crown Nighthawk. Strength: 5.2, Agility: 7.6, Vitality: 4.9, Special abilities: None.]
The stats given by the A.I. Chip were simple. From the looks of it, this type of Dragon Crown Nighthawk was only suitable as a means of transportation.
“Let’s go!”
The large Nighthawk spread its wings, and in doing so, swept up a dust tornado.
Following two cries of the Nighthawks, Leylin and Wade made themselves comfortable on their backs as they flew into the sky.
*Whoosh*
The strong air pressure made Leylin feel as if he were in the middle of a hurricane.
“Hehe! Leylin, how does it feel?”
Wade, who was on the Nighthawk beside Leylin, spoke up.
Leylin’s eyes closed in a contented manner as he enjoyed the scenery zooming past him on both sides, as well as the blue sky and white clouds that seemed to be in close proximity.
For official Magi, whose bodies were much more resilient than the regular human beings, this sort of pressure was akin to a slight breeze.
“It’s not bad!”
“Haha… Back then, I had regretted that I had not memorised a flying type spell. However, ever since I got my precious, I did not have those thoughts anymore. Perhaps one day, you can have a look at it! I swear that you will be enchanted by it…”
Leylin chatted with Wade along the way as he observed the flying path of the Dragon Crown Nighthawk.
Ever since he had left the Nightless City, the Dragon Crown Nighthawk had been flying eastward.
With the passing of time, the air in the atmosphere turned chillier.
Finally, a snow covered mountain range appeared in front of Leylin. The Dragon Crown Nighthawk let out an excited growl, and began to soar upwards.
On a patch of ground covered with white snow, the Dragon Crown Nighthawks that carried Wade and Leylin landed.
“Welcome to the Four Seasons Garden’s headquarters!”
Wade led Leylin into a tall passageway.
Two acolytes that seemed to have been waiting for them began to receive the Dragon Crown Nighthawk, and brought them to their stables, before beginning to scrub and feed them.
The passageway was extremely winding, and the walls were covered with pure white snow. On the inside, however, a warm wind was circulating.
From the various forks on the passageway, Leylin could see several Magi with acolytes walking past them. They carried notebooks and seemed to be in a hurry.
After half an hour and several checkpoints, they finally reached their destination.
“We’re here, this is my mentor’s room, Lord Reynold’s office!”
Wade pushed open a big black metal door while explaining to Leylin.
