Chapter 165 Disappear In Situ (Part One)


    Even though Rocky got the Dark Heaven Insect with extreme ease and now bred it in captivity, he still


    couldn''t get the Dark Heaven Egg that easily. The process wasn''t fast and easy that there would be no


    instant results. It took time and patience. ording to the description in the Beast Encyclopedia, the


    production of one Dark Heaven Egg at the primary grade by a three-star Dark Heaven Insect at the first


    level would take one month. Sometimes, it could even take two or up to three months if the production


    process was slow, not to mention the production time for the Dark Heaven Egg at the medium or the


    premium grade, which definitely would be much longer. Rocky certainly did not expect to wait this long.


    ''It looks like I need to catch a few more Dark Heaven Insects to produce more eggs. With only one to


    produce egg, I am afraid that it can''t produce enough eggs to meet my demand for cultivation. If I have


    several of them, then the situation will be totally different. I can breed them simultaneously and produce


    more eggs in a short amount of time. Moreover, I definitely should spend some time studying how to


    speed up the production of a Dark Heaven Egg. If I can do that, I can shorten my waiting time and


    efficiently produce more eggs...'' Rocky thought deeply as he examined the Dark Heaven Insect, who


    could not move in front of him. It looked like a statue by the way it was paralyzed. Even though relying


    on his knowledge about the modern science and technology couldn''t make the Dark Heaven Insect


    produce the Dark Heaven Egg instantly, he still could shorten the time of producing the Dark Heaven


    Egg. He could also improve the production efficiency, as long as he bred the Dark Heaven Insect


    scientifically, like arranging appropriate diet, improving its living environment and so on.


    It took him a great amount of effort to capture the Dark Heaven Insect alive, and the man with red hair


    even inadvertently helped him to capture it. Even though he didn''t mean to help him at all, Rocky


    wouldn''t have been able to capture the Dark Heaven Insect without him. Therefore, if Rocky wanted to


    capture another one alive by himself, he knew he had to carefully make a long-term n and be fully


    prepared. The wheels in his head were already turning as he came up with ns in his head.


    The bone arrow stained with the Centipede-snake''s venom was enough to make the Dark Heaven


    Insect lose its mobility for a few days. Since it was too paralyzed to move, it was safe to keep it in the


    Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org.


    cave alone. Rocky felt assured and then got out of the cave through the path he foundst time. When


    he arrived on the ground, he immediately cut off some dense branches and leaves with his Frozen


    Wind Dagger to cover the entrance of the path. He had to make sure that it was hidden and secure.


    After that, he returned to the deserted vige to pick up his war beast, Uriah. Without any hesitation, he


    disyed his Neb Cloud Transformation skill to destroy the entrance of the cave, so that nobody


    could find the Dark Heaven Insect hidden in the cave.


    To add more precaution, Rocky concealed the traces left by Dark Heaven Insect near the deserted


    vige. When he was satisfied by theck of traces in the area, he returned to the military camp with


    Uriah.


    As soon as he walked into the military camp, Rocky sensed the atmosphere was not the same as


    usual. Everyone looked a bit worried, as if something bad had happened. He was greeted with


    furrowed eyebrows and worried nces. He could also hear the murmurs of the spirit maniptors as


    they whispered with each other.


    "Captain..." Rocky heard a sad voice call his name. When he looked up, he saw Thor and Joss appear


    in front of him with a twisted look on their face, as if they both wanted tough and cry. They looked


    conflicted with emotions, terrified but at the same time relieved that Rocky had made it back.


    "Captain, you are finally back. We heard that you went out for a mission. Did you encounter any danger


    on your way? We were worried about you so much." Thor and Joss immediately surrounded Rocky and


    examined him carefully, as if they feared that Rocky would be badly injured. They checked his body for


    any possible injuries, and when they saw that Rocky didn''t have a single scratch on him, they breathed


    a sigh of relief.


    Rocky waspletely confused by their strange behaviors. He then tapped the two men on their


    heads and said, "Why are you so surprised to see me back? What happened?"


    "Oh, right, Captain, you still don''t know what happened. Let me fill you in. An outpost on our front line


    was attacked, and the soldiers and the spirit maniptors stationed there were all dead," Joss


    eximed exaggeratedly, and his eyes widened as if to highlight the gravity of what happened. He


    waited to see Rocky''s reaction.


    "Oh, I see," Rocky responded lightly. Of course, he knew about the incident, but he didn''t expect the


    news to be spread around so soon.


    "And... and... two spirit maniptors'' corpses were found near the outpost. They looked like spies from


    the Timber Deity Empire, but nobody knows who had killed them," Thor continued slowly. They waited


    for Rocky''s expression to change as if they were expecting him to look surprised.


    However, Rocky remained silent and narrowed his eyes but his expression was calm. The revtion


    did not surprise him at all. Why would it when it was him who killed the two spies.


    "Captain, howe you have no reaction about it at all?" Thor and Joss asked strangely when they


    saw Rocky was so calm. Obviously, this was not the reaction they were expecting. Not even a single


    bone in his whole body twitched when he heard the news.


    "What kind of reaction should I have? You are simply telling me that some people have been killed. It''s


    no big deal," Rocky said indifferently. His tone and reaction showed that he could not care less about


    what happened.


    "Captain, I am telling you, if this kind of event keeps urring, it must mean that something big is


    going to happen. Maybe the war between our Empire and the Timber Deity Empire would erupt. If that


    happens, we may have to be sent to the front line. If we went to the front line, our chances of survival is


    very slim. Do you know what that means? There''s a high chance that we would nevere back


    alive," Joss said. He obviously looked terrified. His eyes widened exaggeratedly as he imagined the


    horrifying possibility. However, this did not terrify nor disturb Rocky at all.


    "If you are so afraid of death, then you''d better go home and be a farmer again," Rocky responded


    impatiently. He didn''t have the time to talk about it further. After that, he went to Marin''s camp to report


    to her about his mission.
