The First Legendary Beast Master

Chapter 1309 Thatʼs Enough

With their leader gone, the portals began to destabilize. But they didnʼt simply disappear, they were fluctuating at the other side, and they had begun dumping random creatures from the Immortal Plane out into Drodh City.

Most of them only looked around for a few seconds, then went back and closed the portal behind them.

Whatever shit show was going on here was not their problem, and they had no intentions of getting involved in someone elseʼs mess when the whole city

smelled like Chaos and Supreme Rank blood.

It was a presence that no denizen of the Immortal Realms would mistake, as a Supreme Ranked creature was likely to be the overlord of an entire world.

Not something that they wanted to mess with. Especially if something here could make it bleed.

Others were either unable, or unwilling, to go back to where they had come from.

Some of the portals had dumped out the occupants of slave pens full of

creatures under Immortal Rank, others had opened in the open ocean, and the creatures that were capable of returning to the ocean, or who could swim and found no major threats, simply stayed.

Not everything that was powerful was sentient.

Some just wanted decent feeding grounds and fewer predators.

With Cara gone to the Chaos Plane, Karl focused on using [Nullify] to close the portals, which were no longer supported by their creator.

Transforming back into the Avatar of the World Dragon made it easier to close the portals, as the dragon body was more attuned to realm traversing magic. It also allowed him to cast [Nullify] from above, with a much better view of his targets.

Ten at a time, Karl closed the portals, and the invasion slowly began to trickle to a halt, with no new creatures appearing, and the Myths from Zilaz clearing what was left.

Karl could tell that some of them were upset that they had arrived late and didnʼt get as many bounties as they wanted. But after seeing the death and destruction in the city, nobody was in any mood to petition for Karl to slow down the effort to end the invasion.

There wasnʼt much left in the city that wasnʼt at least damaged, and most of the Redwood Sprawl was completely destroyed.

The Frostfire Gate region was the most intact, as that was where Karl and the others had started from. But the Palace was also mostly intact.

It had taken some visible damage, but it was a workday, so the district guardians and the City Governor would have been at the Palace when everything started.

The docks were also partially intact. That was where Sapphire had been shopping when the attack started, and the blue dragon had carefully gathered everyone that she could into a building with an [Eternal Lightning] barrier over it.

Karl was nearly finished closing the portals that had opened in the ocean when he noticed a large rock floating in the water.

Now, rocks werenʼt normally interesting, but they normally didnʼt float either.

So, he flew down to get a better view, and realized that it wasnʼt a rock but a huge egg.

[I bet this one is a brother!] Remi cheered.

[It had better be a brother, weʼre outnumbered.] Hawk agreed.

[Can it be a calm sister to teach the others how to behave?] Thor joked, then began to laugh at Rae and Caraʼs annoyed responses.

[Why will it be either? Is there something special about weird eggs?] Tian asked, confused.

[Oh, right! You werenʼt here for all of it. Collecting eggs is how Karl got most of us. And this looks like a promising egg. It came from the Immortal Realm, which means itʼs from something that can survive there long enough to reproduce.

If it can survive in the Immortal Realm, it isnʼt too weak.

If itʼs not weak, it should have cool skills, and that means it might be interesting enough to be one of us.] Remi explained.

Tian understood. Interesting beasts belonged with them. Where else could they grow up big and strong? But was it going to be a strong enough one to grow with them? How did you even tell from an egg?

Tian came out to inspect the huge grey thing. It didnʼt look like an egg, it wasnʼt even an oval. It was kind of lumpy.

But there was definitely something inside, and it was Mythic Rank.

If it was Mythic as a baby, it should be as strong as him or stronger. It came from a strong place, though, so it might have gotten a bump just from being in

that place.

Still, it shouldnʼt be too weak.

[What do we do with it? Does it just get an automatic space?] He asked.

Karl laughed at his confusion. [I have one space available to form, and I have a skill that will let me add more if I need them. I can make a space for it if weʼre going to keep the egg.]

Tian rolled it over. It looked like stone, but it wasnʼt from the earth element. Maybe nature? But not quite normal nature element. Could that be because it came from another world?

It was a very curious floating object.

Even more interesting, it seemed to pulsate when he spun it in the water.

[I think that youʼre making it seasick.] Thor noted.

[Are we making wagers on what itʼs going to be?] Cara asked as she watched the ongoing fight between Matilda and the Takoyaki Supreme. [Shouldnʼt it be a squid or Octopus? Theyʼre the strongest things weʼve seen today.] Thor pondered.

[But it appeared after the portals went crazy, so it might be from somewhere random.] Remi countered.

[It floats, so it should be from a water place, right?] Tian asked.

[I donʼt think thatʼs how it works. Water creature eggs are usually hidden on

the bottom where theyʼre hard to burn.] Hawk complained.

Danaʼs mind joined the conversation. [Are you picking a new sibling? Where did you even find it?]

[Itʼs floating in the ocean. It came out of a portal, and we donʼt know what it is, except that itʼs a Mythic Rank egg.] Tian replied happily.

[So, naturally, you need to keep it and find out what is inside.]

[See, Dana gets it. Put it in a space and letʼs see what we win.] Cara cheered.
