157: The little killer whale's idea was rejected by Aina
There are a total of 13 prophecies concerning Huaxia, most of which are ambiguous.
For example, the time of the event's outbreak and its location.
Leaving aside the time, let's talk about the location.
Except for Chengdu, which was precisely foretold, other places are indicated by regions.
Western Sichuan, the China-India border, the Southeast nearshore... Huaxia is not like those tiny countries on the Western European or Northern European peninsulas.
Its territory is so vast; just Western Sichuan and the Southeast nearshore alone encompass a large area.
Who knows exactly where those disasters and Opportunities will appear?
'For an individual, it's somewhat useless, but for an organization with Heavenly Eye surveillance covering the entire territory, getting this information in advance changes the whole concept...'
'A massive tsunami breaking out in the Southeast Sea, I hope it's not near us...'
After a moment of thought, Yang Dian continued to read "Old William Earl's Prophecies (World Edition)".
The number of prophecies in the World Edition was significantly more than those within Huaxia, totaling nearly two hundred.
Similar to the events breaking out within Huaxia, most of them were disasters, and there were even prophecies of small nations, like the island nation of Nauru, being annihilated by Sea King Class Creatures.
'But then again.'
'A small country like Nauru has a land area of only 20 square kilometers, smaller than a slightly larger village in Huaxia, with a population of only ten to twenty thousand, and its technology is even more backward.'
'Let alone Sea King Class Creatures, even sending a village-level combat force there, without intervention from other countries, it wouldn't be difficult to destroy them.'
'Heh, a village-level strongman really could win a nation-destroying war...'
With these thoughts in mind, Yang Dian selected 16 more locations where Opportunities would appear outside the country.
'Aside from the Eurasian continent, going to other places requires taking a boat or a plane.'
'Going alone is definitely not safe, and I don't know if the organization will send people there.'
'However, the important goal right now is to improve my strength first.'
'Without strength, even an Opportunity right in front of you can't be grasped...'
Just as Yang Dian was pondering how to improve his strength as quickly as possible, the roar of an engine and the sound of brakes came from outside the Orca Pavilion.
Along with it came the joyful laughter of his Silly Younger Sister:
"Aiyaya ~ Older Brother!"
"Your precious younger sister is here!"
Yang Lele, wearing a Tyrannosaurus Rex holding a small white flag T-shirt, hugged the Little Black Cat, whose face was full of grievance, and trotted into the Orca Pavilion, which had a large hole, holding up the Little Black Cat like a treasure in front of Yang Dian:
"Here, the Little Black Cat you wanted."
The Little Black Cat wagged the tip of its tail:
"Humans, little kittens don't need to practice cultivation; little kittens don't want to practice cultivation."
Reaching out and taking the Little Black Cat, rubbing its head, Yang Dian looked at Yang Lele with some helplessness:
"It's one thing for you to mess with Old Black and Little Yellow, but why are you messing with the Little Black Cat too?"
"It's only a little over a month old; you're making it practice cultivation with you?"
Yang Lele raised her head:
"The Little Black Cat just wants to lick catnip when it has nothing to do; I'm just diverting its attention."
Saying that, she grabbed Yang Dian's arm again and peered around behind Yang Dian:
"Brother, where's that big orca with wings that they talked about online?"
Reaching out and stroking his Silly Younger Sister's head twice, Yang Dian led her to the edge of the Orca Pool.
The Little Orca was still chasing Dudu in circles.
"Look, isn't the little fellow right there?"
Yang Lele blinked her eyes:
"You call such a big fellow a 'little fellow'?"
Yang Dian nodded:
"It is indeed still small."
After replying to Yang Lele, Yang Dian squatted down and tapped the small iron bucket beside him:
"Orca, come here."
The Little Orca's name was Orca (Hu Jiao).
Hu Jiao (Orca) is the Fuzhou dialect term for Fuzhou.
The Little Orca had the potential to grow into a Sea King Class Creature, so everyone naturally wanted to give it a mighty and imposing name.
After much debate, they finally named it Hu Jiao, a name that sounded good and better represented Fuzhou.
Upon hearing Yang Dian's call, the Little Orca immediately abandoned chasing Dudu, flicked its head, and swished its tail, arriving in front of Yang Dian.
When it stood upright, it brought up a large splash of water, drenching Yang Dian and Yang Lele beside him.
Listening to the joyful "woo woo" sounds coming from the Little Orca's mouth, Yang Dian playfully patted its head:
"Naughty."
The Little Orca rubbed against Yang Dian's hand, its upper body half out of the water, and began to spin in circles.
Watching the cheerful demeanor of the little fellow, who had already become a big guy, Yang Dian's mood also brightened a few shades.
Yang Lele, half-hidden behind him, watched with sparkling eyes.
The Little Black Cat in Yang Dian's arms, however, broke free, climbed onto his shoulder, and rubbed against his neck.
"Humans, I miss Qiumiu ~"
Reaching out and scratching the Little Black Cat's chin, Yang Dian said:
"I'll give it to you when we go back; for now, let's get to work."
Saying that, he waved to the Little Orca again:
"Little Orca, why were you so angry just now?"
The Little Orca, which had stopped spinning, sprayed a splash of water from the blowhole on its back, then let out a long "woo~" cry.
As the long cry faded, the Little Black Cat provided a simultaneous translation.
"Humans, the fish said that person wanted it to leave, but it didn't want to leave. She insisted it leave, so it got angry and didn't want to play with her."
The Little Orca nodded, then lowered its head in front of Yang Dian again, letting out another long "woo~" cry.
"Humans, the fish said it didn't like that person, spat water at her, and wanted to drive her away, but then the bird on her shoulder flew up and pecked it."
Yang Dian reached out and touched the small, broken spot on the Little Orca's head, pecked by the Hawk.
Feeling the pain, the Little Orca let out another aggrieved whimper.
This time, he didn't need the Little Black Cat to translate; he could tell that this seemingly large but actually still young little fellow was expressing how wronged it felt.
Thinking about it, it made sense.
Orcas are social animals; as youngsters, they generally live with adult orcas.
In the ocean, only male orcas over 10 years old leave their natal pod.
The current situation was that the little fellow was perfectly happy in the Orca Pool, with plenty of big fish and meat every day, and dedicated people to play with it.
It had come to consider this its home.
Now, suddenly, someone came and said they wanted to take it away; would it be happy about that?
As for the Angler, Zhao Tian, who raised it before?
Raising orcas was his side job; fishing was Zhao Tian's main profession.
He often went out fishing, sometimes for several days, or even a week at a time.
The Little Orca at most considered him a feeder.
Turning his head to glance at Ayina, who was standing in the distance, Yang Dian patted the Little Orca's head again:
"Go play with Dudu."
"As long as you don't want to, no one can take you away."
Taming beasts doesn't necessarily rely on some beast tamer or the Awakening of some beast-taming talent.
Emotional bonds are also one of them.
Just like the cats and dogs raised by ordinary people, even after Awakening their abilities and becoming Mutant creatures, they will still be willing to obey their owner's commands.
In fact, after their Awakening, they will become even smarter, interact more happily with people, and be no different from a true family.
As for the promise made to the Little Orca?
Yang Dian was confident that he would have the capital and strength to fulfill that promise.
Walking over to Ayina, and seeing her somewhat evasive gaze, Yang Dian said bluntly:
"You are not suitable to be the Little Orca's owner."
Ayina blinked her eyes, uttering the first sound Yang Dian had heard from her since he met her.
"Ah?"
