Two days later, in a northwestern village not far from Mount Denali, there was a desert with beautiful poplar trees.
There were only a few dozen people in the village, and most of them were old people, but now, there was a beautiful young woman.
It was Victoria.
Victoria was wearing a thin red dress with shoulder-length hair. The wind was strong and messed up her hair. She didn’t seem to care about her image and was only wearing a pair of slippers.
She was sitting under a poplar tree with a blue bird.
An old man slowly walked up to her and handed her the food she prepared for the bird. He even asked her what she wanted for lunch.
The people in this village were controlled by Victoria. She wanted to live here quietly for some time without being disturbed.
Victoria gently stroked the bird’s beautiful feathers and whispered. “Cherry, you are the only one by my side now. Only you are still willing to accompany me.”
Victoria named the bird Cherry.
Two days ago, when Victoria left Immortal Lake, she didn’t take the initiative to take it away. Although this bird was a gift from Randall, since Victoria wouldn’t be with him in the future, she naturally wouldn’t take such a precious gift away.
However, when she left, the bird took the initiative to look for her and refused to leave.
Victoria liked it, so she took it away with her.
The winged bird, Cherry, continued to eat with her head lowered. Victoria looked at its beautiful appearance and liked it more and more.
“Cherry, you’re too beautiful. A beautiful baby needs someone to dote on her. I’ve never been doted on like this, but I’ll always protect and love you.”
Victoria treated the bird like her own daughter.
However, at this moment, a whirlwind suddenly blew in the sky. There seemed to be a figure flying over quickly.
“Who is it!”
Victoria immediately became alert.
However, sensing that person’s aura, the bird, Cherry, also put down its food excitedly and flew up.
“Cherry, don’t go! It’s dangerous!”
Victoria became nervous after seeing this.
Gradually, Victoria saw that there was indeed a person, and it was a black man. Without a word, she immediately used her Spiritual Energy to control him to prevent him from hurting Cherry.
However, she found that she couldn’t control him mentally!
“How is it that this man is immune as well!”
Victoria had already encountered several people who were immune to her mental control. Grachev, Shirley, Jordan, and even Randall could resist her for a long time.
For the past two days, Mike Baylor had been busy treating the golden-horned dragon. Only then did he have the time to look for Victoria. He could rely on his perception of animals to detect the locations of the bird and Victoria.
He thought that it would take a long time to find her, but he didn’t expect her to be not far from Mount Denali. With Mike Baylor’s flying ability, he quickly found her.
“Oh, my little cutie, there you are.”
Mike Baylor was also very happy to see Irene flying towards him. He propped up his right arm and let the Winged Bird land on his shoulder.
“Let go of Cherry! Don’t hurt her!”
Victoria didn’t know where this black man came from, but she was very brave and fearless.
Mike Baylor slowly landed on the ground with the bird. He glanced at the plainly-dressed Victoria and nodded.
As far as Mike Baylor was concerned, exquisitely dressed women didn’t appeal to him. A woman’s temperament and train of thought were the most important. Of course, her figure couldn’t be bad.
Overall, Mike Baylor’s evaluation of Victoria was not bad, but it was not to the point of attracting him.
The only thing that made Mike Baylor feel that Victoria was special was her purple mutant status and the fact that he was Jordan’s ex.
Mike Baylor looked at Victoria and smiled. “Cherry? This is the name you gave it? Not bad, I’ll accept it.”
Victoria angrily shouted. “Release it or I won’t be polite to you!”
Mike Baylor smiled. “Save it, Victoria. You’re just a purple-colored mutant. Your mental control is useless against me. Also, can’t you tell that it was Cherry who took the initiative to look for me? I didn’t catch it. You brought the pet that I personally developed and domesticated here. Shouldn’t I be the one getting angry?”
Hearing this, Victoria was stunned. “Cherry is your pet? Who… Who are you?”
In the past two days, Victoria also realized that Randall was full of lies. This bird was definitely not his pet. She thought it was the Moon Maiden’s, but she did not expect it to be a man.
Mike Baylor did not hide anything from her. “My name is Mike Baylor. Didn’t Randall tell you that this bird belongs to his master?”
Victoria was shocked. “You… you are Randall’s master?”
Mike Baylor nodded. “That’s right. All these years, I’ve been domesticating pet beasts in the South Pole. The Immortal Lake and the mutants have been handed over to Randall to manage. This kid did a good job. He discovered a purple mutant like you. When I found out that there was someone who could control minds and was a purple-level mutant, I was very happy.”
Victoria was a bit shocked. It turned out that all these years, it wasn’t Randall who was in charge of the Immortal Lake and the Mutant Tribe, but this black man in front of her!
Moreover, he already knew that Victoria was a purple mutant.
At the thought of this, Victoria couldn’t help but feel a bit more respect for Mike Baylor. “I’m very sorry, Mr. Baylor. Randall previously gave Cherry… to me. He didn’t say that this was your pet. I thought it was his, so I brought it with me.”
“Now that you’ve found it, it should return it to its rightful owner. Take it.”
Victoria realized that the person in front of her could control the Immortal Lake for so many years and was Randall’s master. Moreover, he was immune to her mental control. It was very likely that he was a golden mutant like Jordan!
Thus, she didn’t dare to compete with him.
However, Mike Baylor glanced at the bird and raised his arm, allowing it to fly into Victoria’s arms.
Victoria was stunned. “You…”
Mike Baylor smiled and said, “I’m very proud of this winged bird. Even a golden mutant like me can’t suppress it sometimes. It’s very difficult to control. And you, a purple mutant, can actually take it away and make it stay here obediently for two days. This proves that it likes you very much. Although this is a very precious Winged Bird to me, since you two are fated, I’ll give it to you!”
