The Strongest Beast Tamer 118 Alfredo's Research

He suddenly lunged towards the elevator doors and looked down, there was a bit of light at the bottom of the elevator shaft, Johanson could be seen, brightly lit up by some light. When she noticed Lachlan she began to wave her hand furiously through the air.

"Help us! We're currently trapped down here with no way of getting up!" Johanson shouted. Her hands wrapped around her mouth in the shape of a funnel, hoping that Lachlan could hear here from such a large distance.

"Is that one of the researchers?" Phoebe came over and asked. She leaned over to look down at saw Johanson.

"Indeed, she was one of the researchers researching into whether or not the hybrids were actually intelligent beasts or not. Unfortunately, her research hit a roadblock when she couldn't get her hands on any intelligent beast samples," Lachlan explained.

"Oh, so she's on our side then," Phoebe said before she jumped down, using her gravity stone to lighten her fall. Johanson jumped back with a bit of fright when she saw Phoebe jump down towards her.

Her expression then changed to shock when she noticed that Phoebe was slowly floating down. Similar to Brianna and Georgia, those researchers hadn't noticed the giant island above the city. They were too busy with research to even be bothered.

"So, where is everyone else?" Phoebe asked as she landed gracefully on the ground.

Johanson didn't respond momentarily as her mind was working at lightning speeds to comprehend the method that Phoebe used to float down so slowly. She finally snapped out of it after a few seconds. "Ah, yes they're just over there."

Johanson pointed towards a group of people huddled in a corner, a tamed beast was by their side, keeping watch. To the sides, the walls were lined with enclosures, filled with unique and exotic beasts.

Lachlan and the others swiftly hopped down the elevator shaft and looked around. Some of the beasts inside the enclosures stared at the group in a curious manner, some were furiously pounding against the glass while others were completely ignoring everything.

"Well I'll be damned, you have yourself quite the variety of beasts," Lachlan said as he quickly analysed everything he could see. There wasn't anything unique or special here, nothing he hadn't seen before but just the sheer variety of beasts was impressive enough.

"This is nothing, we have a lot more hidden further inside the breeding ground. These ones however are rather special, as they were the ones that the Vice-Leader worked on before he began to change," Johanson explained with a slight boast. "Unfortunately, I suppose he won't be able to see his progress with them."

It didn't take a genius to understand that Lachlan had won. Not to mention the vigorous quakes that were happening not too long ago have come to a stop. It was obvious the fight ended, and with Lachlan's appearance in front of her, she knew he had won.

"I wonder if we'll be able to take a look?" Lachlan asked. He was curious as to what Alfredo was working on in his final time of peace. Although he didn't say it aloud; if it was anything useful for them they

"I'm not too sure, aside from the Vice-Leader no one else knows the code to get into the breeding area," Johanson explained. "But I'll take you there anyway, it's the least I can do for you; you did save our lives after all."

The followed Johanson through the grounds, the further away from the elevator they got the more weird, unique, and exotic and beasts became. Johanson explained to them they were created through selective breeding, similar to what humans did to chickens and cows before the evolution.

The offspring from these selective breedings would sometimes come out for more powerful than its parents. However, there was also always the chance it could end up like a failure and even fail to be born.

"And Alfredo was the main person in charge of these breedings?" Lachlan asked.

"Some of them, he would then always either kill or injure the parents to give their blood to their offspring. Which we discovered triggers something in the younglings bodies and causes them to have rapid growth," Johanson explained.

The group knew that was a bunch of bullshit, Lachlan especially. Alfredo knew full well that the offspring needed the blood of both parents to trigger the rapid growth. However, this made the group all the more curious as to what Alfredo was focusing on so much.

Johanson led them to a large metal door, it stood 10 metres tall and was heavily reinforced. It looked like it would take a hit from a nuke before it breaks open.

"Well this is certainly a big ass door," Simon said as he knocked on the metal, the clanging sound echoing through the breeding grounds. "I wonder what he's hiding in there."

"Well, there's only one way to find out," Lachlan walked up to the door and placed his hand in the middle. Ice began to form, covering the gap between the doors and spreading slightly towards the edges.

'Alright, come on, I can do this' Lachlan pumped himself up as he placed his hand of ice on the door as well. The ice began to compact and move, the door began to screech loudly as it resisted the force trying to pry it open.

The ice was extending from the crack, expanding itself, opening the door along with it. Lachlan's face was tomato red as he felt the blood rushing to his head. 'Come on, just a little bit more, you can do it, you can do it'

Lachlan finally stopped once the door had been opened a metre wide, he melted the ice, creating a path through the door. One which ended up being 3 metres thick, with marks across it from the sudden force trying to crack it open.

"Well come on then, Alfredo's research isn't going to come to us now is it," Lachlan said as he stumbled through the gap, reaching the other side where he was greeted by the side of enclosures housing much more unique beasts along with different plants growing in their own, separate space.

"Wow, well ain't this something special," Simon said as he walked up to one of the enclosures housing a plant. It was small, only the length of a pinky finger yet the flower that bloomed on top sent them into a trance. It's deep ocean blue colours shone from the ceiling light.

Name: Yin Petaled Flower

Description: A rare flower that increases the Yin energy inside its consumer, powering up ice abilities and undead abilities by double. Useable only once.

Location: Can be found and grown in Yin energy-rich soil.

--------------------------------------------------------

Lachlan looked at the description with a slight hint of curiosity, granted it was already quite obvious. This flower was likely an ingredient for an upgrade path, one which might have benefitted Alfredo greatly.

The group then turned their attention to the beasts in the room. There were only 2, one which was a wolf that gave off a bloodthirsty aura and the other was a bird as light as the sun. They both stood roughly 5 metres tall yet the auras they gave off were so vastly different.

The wolf gave off an aura that would even frighten a military veteran while the other gave off an aura that seemed to heal their mental states. They were unique and powerful.

The wolf's body was black with green lines scattered across its body, its mouth was pouring out drool as it stared at the group. Its claws were black while the fur surrounding it was green. The wolf's eyes looked hollow and dark, like a black hole that devours everything.

The bird, on the other hand, was completely white, with the only bit of different colour on its entire body being its pupils. Whether it be its feathers or its legs, all was white like the sunlight. It looked at the group with curiosity, it hadn't ever seen these visitors before.

--------------------------------------------------------

They were both upgraded beasts with a high level of talent, not to mention the unique strengths. Lachlan could only assume that the strengths would get much more unique and stronger the further one goes up the grade list.

Simon suddenly ran up to the enclosure. "This one is mine, I claim it so I get to tame it."

Lachlan didn't expect anything less of Simon, but at the same time decided against fighting for it. Lachlan took what Alfredo said to him to heart and would always keep in the mind the restrictions for the other half. He decided he would wait until he's completely confident about his willpower before taming another beast.

"So, what are you going to name it? Granted that would only be if you can tame it," Lachlan said in a slightly mocking tone. "It is very difficult when it comes to taming an already aged beast, and considering it been in captive for a long time I don't think it likes humans all that much."

"What are you talking about, it won't follow me due to me being a human but rather, it would follow me due to my overwhelming strength and tenacity," Simon boasted proudly. "As for the name, of course I just have to call it something like Heatwave, or even better, Heatray."

'Well at least he's following his naming trend' Lachlan thought.

'Of course, I expect nothing else from this human' Catastrophe insulted.

'How about we come up with a name for it, at least that way it won't have to live its life being called Heatray. It could atleast call it something like Wildfire,' Calamity said. It took a bit of pride in its name, as it thought it was quite literally, a natural disaster.

'What are you on about, seeing that pure white body it should be called Lucifer, as it is the light bringer, in a literal sense as well' Aaron said with a sophisticated tone. 'At least that way it will have a sophisticated name it could look up to'

Taking that as an insult Catastrophe instantly started firing back, full force with everything he's got.

'Oh come on Aaron, just because your name is said to mean something doesn't actually mean that's what you are. As for us three on the other hand, I mean just search up the definition of our names' Catastrophe said.

'Yes, because that's all Lachlan had to do to come up with your names. And I'll fire that insult back at you; just because your name means something doesn't mean that's what you are' Aaron insulted back with the same insult Catastrophe said to him.

'Oh if Lachlan summoned us all right now we would whoop your ass so fast' Catastrophe threatened.

'Don't kid yourself, if I activated my aura you three wouldn't even be able to take a step in my direction' Aaron said.

Lachlan could feel the emotions whirling inside his tamed beasts, although it was only Catastrophe and Aaron that were really giving off a lot of rage. Calamity was calm as always while Disaster was slightly nervous.

'Come on you two, there's no need to be fighting each other when we might have to fight something else later, something much stronger than all of us combined' Disaster spoke up and interrupted the two's bickering.

The two shut up, they knew what Disaster was referring two and they didn't know how they would fare against it either. They were the tames of Lachlan, not the other half, but they weren't sure whether or not they'll be able to resist his commands.

"How about you name it Wildfire or Lucifer, change up the names a bit and try something different," Lachlan suggested to Simon. Hearing them settle down made him slightly relaxed, it was also slightly enjoyable hearing them bicker like little children.

"Yeah, Wildfire, I like it," Simon nodded at the name Wildfire but doesn't know the meaning behind the name Lucifer. Lachlan didn't blame him, he only knew about it from tv shows.
