After hanging up the phone, David Jones shook his head.

Competing for glory is fine, but risking his life for a heritage relic? No thanks!

Right now, his entire Sunbeam Province, or even the whole Flowery Kingdom’s Trainer force, is paying attention to Seamus Coldwell’s heritage relic. Even legendary experts are involved, and he doesn’t think there’s any need for him to get involved as well.

The next morning.

A floating car slowly stops at a Beast Master Base near the Beastmaster Building in Celebration City.

“Get off the car, we need to prepare for the transportation array.” Guildmaster Maud said.

“Alright.” David Jones nodded slightly.

He looked at the soldiers of the Beast Legion stationed at the base, their military bearing was impressive, and their badges had three shining stars on their chests, admiration flashed in his eyes.

The Beast Master Base in a Level II city is different, even the guards at the gate are senior Trainers.

After David Jones and Guildmaster Maud passed the soldier’s inspection, they arrived smoothly in front of a heavily guarded square.

In the middle of the square, there was an eye-catching ancient portal. This portal was based on the hexagonal rune circle, outlining mysterious silver runes, emitting a mysterious and dazzling faint radiance.

Guildmaster Maud said, “Let’s wait a bit. The city portal is activated every half hour or when it accommodates one hundred people.”

“Luckily, there’s still five minutes left for the next transportation.” Guildmaster Maud took a glance at the transportation timetable.

Looking at the sparse crowd in front of the portal, David Jones sighed, “There aren’t many people, gathering a hundred people isn’t easy, is it?”

Guildmaster Maud, “It depends on the situation. If there’s a new high-level dungeon in other cities, Trainers will swarm there, and the spots for the city portal will often not be enough. However, some Trainers might choose to take the floating train to save money.”

“Compared to the floating train, the portal is faster, but it has two disadvantages. One is the high price, and the other is the higher physical requirement for the teleportees.

For such long-distance teleportation between cities, the Guild usually only allows Senior Trainers to use it. So, it’s less common to have long queues.” Guildmaster Maud explained.

Trainers only need to spend a few thousand Star Coins to take the floating train, while activating a city portal once would cost at least tens or hundreds of thousands of Star Coins and even have certain requirements for the Trainer’s physical condition.

Unlike short-distance teleportation in dungeons, the pressure from long-distance teleportation between city portals can crush a Primary Trainer’s body in an instant.

David Jones’ Arcane Star has reached Class III, enough to ignore the load brought by the portal. This is also the reason why Guildmaster Maud chose to take the city portal this time.

The transportation fee to Sunhead City this time was 300,000 Star Coins per person.

Fortunately, Guildmaster Maud handled the expenses; otherwise, David Jones would hesitate to take such an expensive portal.

Five minutes later, the Master Trainer in charge pressed the button on time.

A burst of black rays began to emerge from the silver runes beneath David Jones’ feet, then erupted into an overwhelming space Arcane Force fluctuation.

A few seconds later, the black rays dissipated, and the silhouettes of the Trainers on the portal also disappeared.

At this moment, Daisy Keynes, who had been waiting near the square, looked at the city portal far away with its radiance quietly fading, the corners of her mouth hooked, and her face revealing a gentle smile.

“My benefactor, you’re finally here.”

On the other hand, when David Jones arrived in Sunhead City, he subconsciously put his hand on his forehead.

“I feel a bit uncomfortable.”

He felt a little dizzy, even his steps were unstable, so he had to stand still.

“How do you feel? Are you okay?” Guildmaster Maud smiled.

He had the same feeling the first time he used the city portal. At that time, he was quite uncomfortable too.

Seeing this, a Master Trainer stationed nearby didn’t plan to drive them away. Instead, he handed a bag to David Jones to prevent him from vomiting.

He had seen many Trainers who were dizzy from the portal, but such a young Trainer was a rare sight. Why not lend a helping hand?

“Thank you, I’m fine.” David Jones shook his head slightly.

After walking out of the Beast Master Base with Guildmaster Maud, a gust of salty sea breeze immediately caused David Jones’ eyebrows to furrow.

Sunhead City is known for its abundant energy and water elemental pets.

Every summer, it’s the most active time for water elemental Beasts in Sunhead City. Many Water Trainers in Sunbeam Province come here to look for suitable pets.

Guildmaster Maud summoned the Supercar Indigo directly, and then drove David Jones to the gathering point of the heritage relic entrance.

Sitting in the car, David Jones looked at the endless, rolling waves of the sea through the window, his eyes full of shock.

Although Waterland City was surrounded by mountains and water, it was not a coastal city. This was his first time seeing such a magnificent sea.

“If you like it, you can contract a water elemental pet here.” Guildmaster Maud said with a smile.

In his opinion, it’s a bit of a waste for David Jones’ current Arcane Star Class III cultivation to only have one Flood Dragon Commander pet. It’s time to train new pets.

Generally speaking, as the Arcane Star progresses, the number of pets that can be contracted by Trainers increases accordingly.

At Arcane Star Class I, Trainers can contract one pet; at Class II, they can contract two pets; and so on. Trainers can contract up to nine pets, but few Trainers choose to do so.

Because the more pets a Trainer contracts, the greater the pressure on their Arcane Star. This can even affect the binding strength of the Beast Taming Contract, the growth rate of the pets, and their Arcane Star advancement.

If a Trainer’s Arcane Star cultivation always suppresses the contracted pets, it’s fine. But once the pet’s cultivation surpasses the Trainer’s, there is a certain chance that the pets would bite back.

After all, the relationship between multiple pets can often be hard to manage and can easily cause difficulties for the Trainer.

“I’m not thinking about contracting a new pet for now.” David Jones replied decisively.

Joking, his three current pets had almost depleted his body of energy. He couldn’t handle another one.

Upon hearing this, Guildmaster Maud smiled and didn’t continue to persuade.

Southnorton Island, located in the northern part of Sunhead City, is a sparsely populated island with only a few hundred permanent residents.

Before the emergence of the heritage relic, no Trainers paid attention to this impoverished island.

Now, the entrance to the heritage relic was bustling, with many well-dressed, awe-inspiring strong Trainers sitting and chatting.

Nixon Lowell looked at the magnificent giant dragon statue at the entrance of the relic and showed some surprise on his face.

“What kind of True Dragon is this?”

Nixon knew all the True Dragon species recorded in Flowery Kingdom, but the huge stone statue in front of him was unfamiliar.. Could it be an ancient dragon species that disappeared in the Neolithic Period?
