Chapter 90: The Beast Blood Sect’s Attack?
Seeing that the evaluation section had turned pitch black all of a sudden the Metal-feathered Eagle, which had never encountered such a situation before, couldn’t help but flap its wings a few times.
“Metal-feathered Eagle, don’t worry. I’m here. It’ll be fine.”
Standing at the side, Giles also sensed the Metal-feathered Eagle’s panic, so he reached out his right hand and stroked it.
The frightened Metal-feathered Eagle quickly calmed down under Giles’ assurance, but it was still puzzled and worried.
“Giles, why would something like this happen?”
“Maybe there’s a problem with the main switch for the spiritual energy supply in the evaluation section. We’ll know after we check.”
Unlike the Metal-feathered Eagle, who had never encountered such a situation and was flustered by it, Giles, who had grown up in Starlux Gym, had come across countless emergencies previously.
If it was just a problem with the main switch for the spiritual energy supply, he could handle it by himself.
“That’s strange. There’s no issues with the circuitry or the main switch. Why did the spiritual energy supply suddenly stop?”
Through the weak sunlight that shone into the room through the window, Giles, who roughly knew where the main switch was, fumbled around in the darkness and opened the panelboard.
However, to his surprise, the interior of the panelboard was intact without any malfunction.
Sss! Sss! Sss…
As several electric currents rang out, a weak light illuminated every entrance and exit of the evaluation section.
“Oh? Has the gym’s emergency power been activated?”
Looking at the weak lights, Giles couldn’t help but frown.
“The situation seems to be much worse than I imagined!”
Hundreds of years after the resurgence of spiritual energy, due to the various advantages of spiritual energy, such as it being renewable, available in huge amounts, causing minimal pollution, and being able to transform, it has become the main energy source for humans.
However, other energy sources such as electricity, heat, and wind were not completely eliminated. They were mainly used as backup energy sources for emergencies for a short period of time.
The emergency lights had already been switched on in the evaluation section, which meant that the place where the spiritual energy supply was stopped was not just the evaluation section, but the entire Starlux Gym!
Although he did not know why the entire Starlux Gym had stopped supplying spiritual energy, the impact of the current situation was immense.
It had to be known that the conservatory in the spirit beast section relied on using spiritual energy every day to provide a comfortable environment for the spirit beast cubs to grow.
Now that the spiritual energy supply in the spirit beast section had been stopped, the spirit beast cubs that lived in the conservatory would also be affected. It might even cause a panic.
Furthermore, it would soon be seven o’clock. The Beast Tamers who needed to borrow the training ground would also arrive at Starlux Gym one after another.
Without the spiritual energy supply, the training areas would not be able to function.
“Metal-feathered Eagle, let’s go. We’ll head back to the spirit beast section first.”
After realizing these two points, Giles made his decision without any hesitation.
Even though the muscles on his entire body, which had just completed his physical training, were still aching and exhausted, he still kept running towards the spirit-beast section together with the Metal-feathered Eagle.
He had to temporarily store the spirit beast cubs in his tattoo space. Otherwise, if he let them stay in the conservatory with no spiritual energy supply for too long, something would definitely happen.
“If not for some special situation, the Beast-taming Gym’s spiritual energy supply wouldn’t be terminated even if the spiritual energy supply in the nearby streets had been. Could it be that our gym owes money to the spiritual energy supply station?”
As Beast-taming Gyms were official evaluation agencies affiliated with the Beast Tamer Association, the spiritual energy supply for Beast-taming Gyms was completely independent of the route used by civilian facilities.
Now that the spiritual energy supply for Starlux Gym had suddenly been halted, Giles first guessed that Starlux Gym owed money to the spiritual energy supply station.
“But logically speaking, that’s not right either! Every month, the Beast Tamer Association will reimburse a portion of the bill for the spirit energy supply to the Beast-taming Gym.”
“Furthermore, Gym Leader Alice specially paid a fee last month before she left. At the very least, the spiritual energy supply should not be cut off this month.”
“I wonder how much we owe. Otherwise, the spiritual energy supply station wouldn’t have suddenly stopped the supply without even informing me.”
Just as Giles opened the door to the spirit-beast section with his doubts, he was struck on the chest by a pure-white object.
When the Metal-feathered Eagle behind Giles saw this, it subconsciously flapped its wings and prepared to attack, but Giles’ voice suddenly rang out in its mind, “Metal-feathered Eagle, don’t attack. This is Little Fox!”
In actuality, Giles was also taken aback by this pure-white object, but when he felt the furry sensation in his arms, he immediately let down his guard and reminded the Metal-feathered Eagle behind him.
“Little Fox, don’t be afraid. It’s alright.”
Seeing the Little Fox trembling in his arms, Giles snapped out of it.
Perhaps the Little Fox was frightened, so he comforted the Little Fox as he walked towards the spirit beast section.
As the Little Fox listened to Giles’ soft voice and felt his touch, its body slowly stopped shaking and its emotions calmed down.
Previously, because the Little Fox was worried that something would happen to Giles when he was doing rehabilitation exercises for his left arm, she, who was clamoring to go back to sleep, tossed and turned on Giles’ bed a few times. After that, she decided to go to the evaluation section to take a look at Giles.
As one of them was treating Giles while the other was training with Giles, the Little Fox and the Metal-feathered Eagle had been by Giles’ side every day for the past two weeks. They could be said to be very familiar with the various sections in Starlux Gym.
It was because of this that the Metal-feathered Eagle could leave the spirit beast section at around five in the morning and fly ten rounds around Starlux Gym.
The Little Fox also ran straight towards the evaluation section after stepping out of the wooden hut in the forest.
However, not long after she left the spirit beast section, she encountered the situation of the spiritual energy supply being cut off.
As a spirit beast that had just arrived in human society, this was the first time she had encountered such a situation.
Seeing that the passageway was pitch-black and the surrounding spiritual energy was starting to thin, the Little Fox couldn’t help but panic.
However, the reason she was nervous wasn’t because of her safety, but because…
Did something happen to Giles during his training?
When this thought arose in her heart, the panic-stricken Little Fox couldn’t help but recall what had happened in the Decker Mountain Range previously.
Two weeks ago, at the Beast Tamer Friendly Match in the Decker Mountain Range, Giles had destroyed the plan that the Beast Blood Sect had been preparing for a long time. He had thoroughly established a grudge with the Beast Blood Sect.
The Little Fox had also learned from her mother, Janice, that the Beast Blood Sect was known to always take revenge.?Perhaps this accident is the Beast Blood Sect’s revenge against Giles!
After realizing this, the Little Fox sprinted towards the evaluation section and couldn’t help but speed up.
Finally, when she saw that Giles was safe and sound as he opened the door of the evaluation section, she finally felt relieved and threw herself into the arms of a surprised Giles.
“Little Fox, why did you come over here?”
Seeing the Little Fox gradually stop trembling in his arms, Giles, who felt that her emotions had stabilized, tried to ask this question.
However, to Giles’ surprise, the Little Fox tensed up again after hearing his question.
How should I explain this to Giles? Should I just say that I came here because I was worried about him?
