Chapter 724: Chaos Begins (Sixty-Four) - A companion beast from Ji Zhi's mother
"That'...... Who is my mother......? Where are you now?"
After being stunned for a long time, Ji Zhicai spoke sneeringly, his voice dry.
"She......" The starlight in the eyes of the ancestral bird dragon suddenly dimmed, and his voice suddenly became low, with an inexplicable sadness. "She's gone!"
"Gone?" Ji Zhi suddenly raised his head, raised his voice suddenly, and looked at the ancestral bird dragon with sharp eyes. "What's wrong with her? Where has she gone?"
"She had fallen thirty-five years ago!" the Ancestral Bird Dragon's immature voice lowered.
"Fallen?" Ji Zhi was stunned, "How could this be? How did she fall? Didn't she say that she was still a little girl? How could she fall so early?" His eyes suddenly sharpened, and his gaze looked at the ancestral bird dragon fiercely, faintly revealing a hint of red light, "Is it because you didn't protect her?"
"What nonsense!" The starlight flashed in the eyes of the ancestral bird dragon, and a dazzling light suddenly shot out of its eyes and into Ji Zhi's eyes. Excited by this light, Ji Zhi seemed to have been slapped suddenly, and the red light in his eyes suddenly faded and he regained his clarity. "She was born with a disease, a genetic disease that would not have survived to adulthood. Back then, your father was able to come to our Freedom Alliance precisely because she needed your father's treatment. However, this genetic disease is born and cannot be cured. Even if your father made a move, he only slightly controlled her condition and extended her life for three years, and in the end she still died!"
"Genetic disease?" Ji Zhi repeated dumbfoundedly, deflated all of a sudden.
He is also a scientist engaged in the field of biochemistry, and naturally understands that science is not omnipotent. Some diseases are simply incurable, even under the current level of science and technology, including gene deletion, gene mixing, gene mutation and other problems. If a disease like this comes from genes, if it is acquired, there is still hope for a fight, but if it is born with it, it can basically only be left to fate.
"That'...... What kind of person is my mother?" Ji Zhi lowered his head and asked softly.
The word "mother" has always been a bit wonderful in Ji Zhi's heart. He doesn't have a mother, and in his brain information, only the father column has a name, and the mother column is empty. When he was younger, he also asked his father who his mother was. But my father always looked sad. Later, when he was a little older, he also compared genes through wisdom. However, in the entire gene pool of Huajiu District, there is no gene that matches the maternal gene in his body.
This question has always existed in his heart, and he has also guessed that maybe his maternal side is not from the Huajiu District, but from other Chinese districts, and may even be from the West Kowloon District. He also planned that if he had the chance, he would definitely check where his maternal genes came from, and whether his mother was an ordinary person or an awakened person.
But the scope of this conjecture definitely does not include the Freedom Alliance.
"Your mother......" Ancestral Bird Dragon's eyes softened suddenly, "She is a little angel, an incomparably pure and thorough girl, smart, kind and lovely! She is a beautiful little girl who is loved by everyone and sees flowers blooming! Well, in fact, in terms of appearance, you are six points like your mother!"
Ji Zhi listened attentively, imagining in his mind what such a little girl would look like.
"What's her name?is she an ordinary person or an awakened person?" Ji Zhi asked after being silent for a minute.
"Her name is Shui Ling'er! She is a water-type ability! But her rank is not high, and by the time she falls, she is only a fourth-order ability......! A little starlight jumped out of its eyes and landed on Ji Zhi's body.
"But what?" Ji Zhi was listening intently, but suddenly found that the Ancestral Bird Dragon had stopped talking, so he asked eagerly.
"But although Shui Ling'er is gone, she has a companion beast that is still there. You have Shui Ling'er's genes on your body, maybe you can try to see if you can form a companion contract with it!" The Ancestral Bird Dragon looked sideways at Ji Zhi, as if assessing whether Ji Zhizhi would accept Shui Ling'er's companion beast.
"Companion beasts?"
Ling Bing and Ji Zhi were both stunned when they heard this.
Ji Zhi was stunned for a moment, because he didn't expect Shui Ling'er, a girl with congenital genetic defects and destined to live for a short time, to have a companion beast. Listening to the Ancestral Bird Dragon, this companion beast is still alive, and it is possible that he may also form a companion contract with it.
Ling Bing was stunned for a moment, because Ancestral Bird Dragon's words were beyond her cognition. As far as she knew, in their free alliance, the formation of a companionship contract should only be formed when both parties are cubs. Moreover, a beast and a person can only enter into a companionship relationship once in their lifetime. Regardless of whether a person dies or a beast dies, you can't make another contract with other beasts or people in this life, so it's called companionship!
Why is this Shui Ling'er's companion beast an exception, and what kind of beast is her companion beast?
"That's right, companion beast!" Ancestral Bird Dragon glanced at Ji Zhi, "Don't tell me you don't know about companion beasts! Others may not know, but your Ji family must know! Your father is Ji Xiang, and your own level is not low, so if you think your status in the Ji family should not be low, what is the companion beast, you don't need me to explain more, right?"
"Of course I know about the Companion Beast. But can I also make a companion beast?" Ji Zhi asked stupidly, feeling that he had never been so mentally retarded as he was today.
"I don't know if it can be concluded or not! The decision is not in my hands, nor in your hands, but in the hands of the water. Ancestral Bird Dragon said lightly.
"Water breath, the name of the companion beast of the water spirit?"
Ji Zhi repeated the name softly. Somehow, just by saying the name softly like this, it made him feel very comfortable and kind.
"What kind of alien beast is this companion beast, and how strong is it?"
Ling Bing didn't think the name Water Breath was anything special, but he just had a gut feeling that it should be a water-based beast. Shui Ling'er is a water-based ability, and her companion beast naturally matches her ability.
"Actually, in the strict sense, water breath cannot be regarded as a foreign beast, but should be an insect beast, a very special insect beast. In our Freedom League, this is the only one. As you may have heard, in our Freedom Alliance, a person can only make a companionship contract with one beast in his lifetime. The same is true for beasts, which can only enter into a companionship contract with one person once in their lifetime. Whether it is the death of a man or a beast, the one who survives is destined to be the only one of his own in this life, and he can no longer find another companion. However, this is only for ordinary beasts, and there are exceptions. In our Freedom Alliance, there are two such exceptions!" said the Ancestral Bird Dragon, narrowing his eyes like mung beans.
