nThe reason why Henrick wanted the Giant earth turtle as the guardian beast was because it was perfect in all aspects for being a guardian of the treasure land.

nBasically, no one under the immortal realm cultivators can break its defense despite the fact it was still a peak rank 5 wild beast.

nTwo, it can summon lots of treemen called Treants with the same cultivation rank as the Giant earth turtle and at the same time, it can heal all his friends even from severe injuries.

nAs for the last reason, it could take down armies with 'Energy blast'.

n

"Good then. You are selected as the guardian beast for my treasure land and your home. You should protect it at any cost.

"

nOnce he got the confirmation of Gaude, Henrick revealed a smile as he patted the turtle's head.

n'Tu tu'

nEven though it didn't understand Henrick's words, the turtle was like when Henrick patted its death.

n'Tu tu'

nSoon, Henrick took out the guardian beast pill from his inventory and asked the turtle to swallow it.

nEven though there were other rank 6 wild beasts in the treasure land, Henrick had a feeling that he was doing the right thing.

nSo, there was no hesitation on his face; instead, he was looking forward to the guardian beast pill's effects.

nNodding its head, the turtle swallowed it without any hesitation.

n'Thud'

nAs soon as it swallowed the pill, the giant earth turtle fell to the ground.

n'System, what is happening?'

nHenrick was worried when he saw the turtle fall to the ground and hurriedly asked the system about it.

n'Ding,

nDon't worry, master. It will take 24 hours for a wild beast to absorb the energy from the pill.

n'24 hours? That's too long.'

nHenrick frowned as he shook his head.

n

"Young master, why are there no changes to the turtle?

"

nGaude also felt something was not right and asked Henrick about it.

n

"The pill's effects will need at least 24 hours to be seen by us.

"

nHenrick replied with a slight smile as he caressed the huge head of the turtle.

n

"Oh.

"

nGaude had never taken a pill called 'Guardian beast pill'. So, he didn't have the slightest idea regarding the effects.

nYoung master, what did you talk to this turtle that made it instantly agree to become your guardian spirit?

"

nGaude was curious about it for a while now and finally, asked about it.

n

"Haha...I just promised that I will help it in making more and more friends.

"

nWith a light chuckle, Henrick replied to the golden-horned goat-man.

n'What?'

nGaude was surprised to hear Henrick's words.

n

"Actually, the thing is, just as it hatched from an egg, he was thrown into this treasure land by the immortal cultivator. With time, it started growing like this and the other wild beasts were either formed teams in hunting other beings or started cultivating one there, leaving this one alone as it moves very slowly and it can't communicate with other wild beasts.

"

n

"As for who knows how long, the turtle was alone in this treasure land trying to make friends with another beast and when it heard I speak in its language, it was so excited and asked me to become its friend and I accepted.

"

n

"Later on, I asked whether it wants to become the guardian beast of this treasure land so that it can look after other wild beasts in the treasure land which will naturally make them its friends.

"

nHenrick explained everything to Gaude and felt a little sad for the turtle for spending its time alone without any friends.

n

"Poor beast.

"

nGaude could relate how the turtle must have felt all these years because he was in the same situation for a while until he found a group of friends who betrayed him in the end.

n

"Once we get all the wild beasts in this treasure land into our control, then it will get more friends.

"

nControlling his emotions, Gaude replied to Henrick.

n

"Let's wait until this one wakes up, I just don't want to leave it alone while it is sleeping.

"

nHenrick had a lot of time taming the wild beasts in the treasure land. So, he didn't want to leave the turtle until it awakened.

n

"Young master, how about it? Give me the treasure land's map, I will come back in 24 hours while taming as many wild beasts as possible.

"

nGaude understood why Henrick didn't want to leave the turtle alone because by the time it awakened and Henrick didn't appear in front of its eyes, it would be so depressed.

nSo, he suggested an alternative.

n

"Since you want to help me, then I will not stop you; however, you need to be careful as you haven't recovered your full cultivation yet.

"

nHenrick didn't want to put limits on Gaude when Gaude's intentions were to help him, So, he took out the Treasure land's map and gave it to the goat-man while warning him to be careful.

nCurrently, Gaude's strength was still at the level 1 Grandmaster realm which was of course not a match for a rank 6 wild beast.

nEven though he could put up a fight with his battle experience, all the wild beasts in this treasure land were more powerful than the wild beasts from the outside.

nSo, Henrick warned about it.

n

"Yes, young master, I will be careful.

"

nGaude nodded his head and without hesitation, he opened it before checking for the nearest rank 4 and rank 5 beasts.

n

"I will go now, young master.

"

nOnce he remembered the multiple targets on the treasure land's map, Gaude rushed off into the distance without any hesitation.

n'I hope he will be careful.'

nHenrick looked at the silhouette in the distance and muttered, 'I wonder where did the old bastard bring these wild beasts from?'

nAfter thinking about it, Henrick was very sure that these wild beasts were definitely not from this world and then remembered his fire money with good intelligence.

n'Looks like I need to ask about Spark's origins when I meet it next time.'

nHenrick thought to himself as he sat down beside the turtle.
