Rocky had already left the bazaar. On his way, everything he saw drew his attention. Although where he currently lived was not as convenient as it was in the technological time, it was very common to see all kinds of bizarre things on the street. Aside from war beasts being sold, he also witnessed many stall keepers selling so-called magic elixirs to enhance spiritual power while some sold really weird treasures. Of course, Rocky knew that most of them were fake, but he still enjoyed observing the fantastic eye-opening images.
But what intrigued Rocky most was still the selling of the war beasts. Every time he saw a shop that had war beasts for sale, he would immediately enter the shop without hesitating. Although some of the war beasts looked fierce, none of them was in comparison with his Uriah. They were all low star rated ones that could only be raised as pets. Nevertheless, he still had great interest in checking out them.
Because he knew he could still learn a lot by observing them. No matter the species or the abilities they possessed, those war beasts were still widely different from any modern animal. The war beasts in this world served as a brand new research field for him in his animal genetic study. He needed to collect more information on the war beasts as much as possible in preparation for his future research and genetic experiments.
But after observing for a while, he discovered that those war beasts for sale didn't really add much value to his research. The only relevant information he acquired was that war beasts could have endless variations. But it was not enough for his research at all.
As Rocky walked around the shops, he also heard many stories about different war beasts.
In the Wild Spirit Land, spirit manipulators were as many as the stars in the sky. Thus, war beasts were also a very common sight to everyone. But the spiritual beasts, especially dragons, were far more rare and harder to find. Also, most of the spirit manipulators didn't have the capacity to control such spiritual beasts, so going for war beasts was the only logical choice for them. At the same time, merchants liked to smell the marketability of war beasts.
But the war beasts being sold on the streets were useless to most spirit manipulators. They weren't very different to pets in the modern time. If a spirit manipulator wanted the real thing, a professional beast stable would be their best choice. Those beast stables sold and also bought different war beasts. They have beast evaluators that appraised the quality of the war beasts. If you really wanted to make the most out of what you could pay, it was the right place to go. Some better beast stables even sold spiritual beasts and other far rarer spiritual creatures like dragons but only a few people could afford the price.
The most famous beast stable was called the 'Super Beast Farm'. They said that the beast stable had very powerful supporters. It was where you could find all sorts of war beasts you wanted. And Rocky heard that a valuable spiritual beast had just been sold a few days ago.
"I guess the Super Beast Farm is a good place to go for my research," Rocky said to himself.
All of a sudden, Uriah roared and jumped out of his arms. It landed on the ground and turned to glance at Rocky as it rolled its eyes. It then rushed away and was gone in a matter of seconds. Rocky could no longer see its figure in the crowd.
"Stop! Uriah!" Rocky yelled in panic. He was afraid that Uriah would lose its way so he tried his best to follow it.
The scene of a human chasing after a beast attracted a lot of the people's attention.
"I shouldn't have brought it out in the first place," Rocky said with regret. He soon found that Uriah was headed for a certain direction instead of just running randomly. After a while, he found himself standing in front of a city gate.
