Chapter 550 Side-Story Noah (2)

The next day, Noah used his Mystical Connection Spiritual Ring to contact Ralph.

At this moment, Ralph was leading his group toward the Beast Empire to gain the inheritance of the Beast God. He was startled to know that Noah was trying to contact him.

"What is it, Noah?" Ralph asked.

"Send me Zena quickly. I want her assistance. I will have her return to you once the task is completed," Noah spoke. He didn't explain any further since there was no need to do so.

Ralph was somewhat curious why Noah would require Zena, but he answered soon, "Alright. Where are you?"

"I am in a village somewhere southeast of the Eastern Glerian Mountain Range. Send Zena in this direction," Noah spoke. He explained his position a bit more before the two broke contact.

Ralph soon informed Zena that Noah urgently required his assistance. He further explained Noah's position to Zena, and she nodded before chirping in affirmation.

Zena was very intelligent and had a rough guess of Noah's position. She also possessed impressive eyesight and was confident in finding him after reaching that location.

It took nearly three days for Zena to reach Noah's location. This was an impressive speed considering that Ralph was on the other side of the Glerian Kingdom.

Crossing the entire Glerian Kingdom in just three days was a truly impressive feat!

Noah smiled as he saw Zena approaching the group. He spoke with a delighted look, "Zena is the key to crossing that dangerous forest and entering the Great Qin Empire secretly!"

His words confused all the members of the Heretical Paladins, including Aria and Luna. It was only natural since none of them knew that Zena possessed a mutated bloodline of the Crimson Lightning Phoenix. This was a God-Ranked Bloodline that even the Emperor Ranked Beasts had to respect!

"…Zena, I need you to convince the Great Eagle roaming over the forbidden forest to let us enter the Great Qin Empire," Noah spoke seriously.

All the members of the Heretical Paladins wondered how this beast was going to accomplish this colossal task. Zena was merely a Beast Lord, and even if it was much stronger than regular Beast Lords, it couldn't contend against a Beast Emperor. Sending her to the Great Eagle was akin to delivering a deer to the lion!

However, Zena squeaked upon hearing Noah's request.

Noah seemed to guess what she was talking about. She was asking about the cultivation realm of the Great Eagle.

Noah responded, "It's a Beast Emperor."

Upon hearing that answer, Zena seemed to have a disdainful look on her face. As if she didn't put this Beast Emperor in her eyes at all.

Zena soon chirped in affirmation.

Noah let out a relieved sigh. He then turned his head while speaking, "The Forbidden Forest is in that direction."

Zena instantly shot off in that direction.

Noah turned to gaze at his subordinates, "Let's go. We need to be quick and enter the Forbidden Forest as well."

The Heretical Paladins had some doubts about whether that tiny bird could indeed negotiate with the Great Eagle or not. But they held those doubts within and ran in the Forbidden Forest's direction.

By the nighttime, the Heretical Paladins had entered the edges of the Forbidden Forest. They set up a camp while Noah decided to stay aware for the night. He released his terrifying Sword Qi and scared all the beasts away from their camp.

At the least, no random beast would dare to attack them.

The next day, the Heretical Paladins traveled a bit deeper into the Forbidden Forest, but they were careful to not hunt any beast. This was Noah's instruction. He didn't want the Great Eagle to consider this as a reason for conflict!

During the evening time, Noah saw Zena was returning. Moreover, a large Eagle was accompanying her.

The entire Heretical Paladins saw this scene, and they were utterly shocked. Zena had actually managed to convince the Giant Eagle?!

Noah wasn't that surprised since he recalled Azaroth's words.

"If you ever encounter a bird-type beast, call out for Zena. Her bloodline makes her the King of Birds. Nearly all the bird-type beasts will listen to her commands, including the Emperor Ranked Beasts."

And today, Azaroth's words were proven true.

Zena soon approached Noah and squeaked a couple of times while making some gestures. It seemed to be talking about something.

Noah somewhat understood what she was saying and asked her, "The Eagle wants to talk to me? Alright."

He soon used his Sword Qi to fly in the air and meet up with the Eagle. He was also curious what this Eagle wanted to talk about.

"…This little fledgling mentioned that you wanted to pass through this forest and enter the human empire on the other side," The Eagle spoke spiritually.

Noah responded calmly, "That's correct."

"You see, I have a deal with the humans on the other side that I will prevent any intruders from entering their Empire," The Eagle spoke.

Noah didn't seem nervous as he heard those words. He knew that the Eagle wouldn't have come to talk if he wouldn't allow Noah's group to walk through the Forbidden Forest. However, it must have a condition to let them pass.

"I hope you can make an exception," Noah spoke.

The Eagle sighed before speaking, "I will need to since the one to ask on your behalf is one of the only inheritors of the Godly Beast Bloodlines. My position is much inferior compared to this fledgling. However, in return for letting you all pass safely, I have a request."

"What is it? I will accomplish it if I can," Noah solemnly promised. He made sure to give himself a way out while making that promise, as it would be a pity if he promised something he couldn't do.

"A group of humans stole my eggs a couple of years ago. The robbers definitely belong to this Qin Empire. Please find my children and return them to me," The Eagle spoke.

Noah asked, "How strong are those robbers?"

"I don't know. They secretly stole my eggs while I was away fighting a fierce battle against another Beast," The Eagle responded.

Noah thought for some time before speaking, "They should be inferior to you if they waited for such a moment to steal your eggs. This indicates that they are either King Ranked Experts or the Emperor Ranked Experts."

Noah didn't mention a 5 Star Warrior since he didn't believe that a 5 Star Warrior would be courageous enough to steal the Great Eagle's eggs.

After all, to steal the Great Eagle's eggs, a warrior would have to pass through numerous Beast Lords and Beast Kings. A 5 Star Warrior couldn't accomplish such a task.

"Your children might have hatched by now? How will I find them?" Noah asked curiously.

"…Take my feather. This will resonate when you are near my children. There are three of them," The Great Eagle plucked off three of its feathers before handing them to Noah.

The Great Eagle then gazed in Zena's direction, opened its mouth, and chirped. In reality, the Great Eagle was speaking, "Can he truly accomplish this task? He seems a bit weak."

Zena chirped back a bit aggressively!

She spoke, "Are you doubting me?! Noah is my master's most talented retainer! He can definitely accomplish this mission!"

"Who is your master?" The Great Eagle asked with some curiosity.

A Beast with the God Ranked Bloodline couldn't have a normal master. She was curious about this master's identity.

"…He was a God-Ranked Expert!" Zena responded after a momentary pause.

The Great Eagle seemed convinced upon hearing those words. She then spoke to Noah spiritually, "I will leave this task in your hands."

"You have my word that you will be reunited with your children," Noah solemnly promised.

"Alright. Have your group follow me. I will take you all through a shortcut so that you won't encounter any beast," The Great Eagle spoke.
