Chapter 581: Mechanical Beast – 2

The group of mechanical beasts could be said to be the blade of the Ouyang Family. They used to be their pride, but now, they had become true double-edged swords.

Everyone knew that this was Ouyang Zhui’s way of revenge against the Ouyang Family! It was his revenge for treating him like a tool and taking away all his freedom before he was dead!

He wanted the Ouyang Family to lose everything they had gotten from him. He wanted them to regret what they had put him through, and he wanted them to be filled with the helplessness of being unable to use the great power that was within their reach.

Ouyang Feng opened up the recording from his e-mail. As he watched through the recording, his face turned dark, “Where did this video come from when something happened to all the students who went to the forbidden land? Don’t tell me you went to the forbidden land yourself?”

Ouyang Yue nodded hesitantly. Ouyang Zhui flew into a rage and he shouted, “Fool! How foolish of you to go to the forbidden land by yourself? Don’t you know how dangerous that place is? You’re the current head of the Ouyang Family. Put aside your responsibilities, how should I tell your father if something happens to you?”

“Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.”

“Don’t tell me that you know what you’re doing!” Ouyang Feng snapped. He was fully aware of how stubborn Ouyang Yue was, so he forced himself to calm down.

“It’s been three years since the last time those mechanical beasts went out of control. Do you know what causes it this time?”

“About two months ago,” Ouyang Yue said, “Look at this. The mechanical beasts have been hibernating inside the forbidden land for the past few years. However, when I was there, I noticed there were scratches here and there on the rocks and walls. I’ve asked some experts, and they told me that these scratches have been there for more than two months. Therefore, the mechanical beasts should have awakened two months ago.”

The Ouyang Family’s mechanical beasts operated by absorbing light energy.

When they were kept in the forbidden land where no light could enter, they would convert some of their energy and go into hibernation.

Due to their usability, even though the Ouyang Family was unable to control them, they were not willing to destroy them.

They could only lock them up in the forbidden land, hoping that they could, one day, find a method to control them.

“According to my understanding, those mechanical beasts would not attack their cages in the absence of light. After all, their energy might deplete before they could even get out of the forbidden land. Since they all woke up two months ago, what has happened to the Ouyang Family at that time?”

“I’ve watched the surveillance video and… Ouyang Ya was there for a training session once.”

Ouyang Feng squinted his eyes.

“I heard from the elders that Mr. Ouyang has left some special system on these mechanical beasts. I’m thinking that since Yaya is the most talented junior in the Ouyang Family, could it be that these beasts sensed something, so they all woke up?”

If that was the real case, Ouyang Yue might have to reconsider his attitude towards Ouyang Ya.

After all, those mechanical beasts were very important towards the Ouyang Family. If they could control them, it would allow the members of the Ouyang Family to complete their tasks better and more efficiently.

Ouyang Feng could not tell as well.

Even if those mechanical beasts really chose Ouyang Ya to be their new master, he was not satisfied with her.

After all, not only did he suspect that Ouyang Ya got her design from somewhere else, but more importantly, she did not have a good heart.

She was headstrong, arrogant, and she was the puppet for the elders in the Ouyang Family.

“Have you told Xiao Ya about this?”

“The elders have told her about it, and she’s on her way back to the Ouyang Family. The elders intended to sign her up for this Ouyang Family’s competition to select an heir. They have rescheduled the competition, and they want her to train with the others at the forbidden land.”

However, they still needed to do some investigation during the competition to verify whether or not Ouyang Ya’s appearance was related to the strange movement of those mechanical beasts.

Ouyang Yue paused for a moment before continuing, “Oh yeah, I’ve successfully captured one mechanical beast from the forbidden land.”

Although the Ouyang Family had suffered heavy losses this time, they had successfully forced those mechanical beasts back to the forbidden land. Under the circumstances where they did not have enough energy, they would not wake up anymore for the time being.

Fu Zhi was not interested in the matter of the Ouyang Family, so she prepared to leave.

Ouyang Feng stared at her and knocked on the table, “Sit back down. Don’t you dare leave my office. I will explain to you the theory behind these parts later.”

Fu Zhi did not know what to say.

She always heard people saying that those who knew more than the others would die first.

Ouyang Yue walked to the corner, and pointed the camera at the mechanical beast in the cage.

They could see nothing more than a silhouette since there was not enough light. This mechanical beast was about 1 meter tall. It was considered the smaller type, so it did not have much energy stored in its body.

Ouyang Yue then zoomed into the beast, and it was only then they saw clearly the entirety of the mechanical beast.

It had the head of a tiger but the body of a snake. Its eyes were pure black, and it looked just like an ancient beast.

Since it had run out of energy, it could not attack people anymore. Therefore, Ouyang Yue squatted beside the cage to give Ouyang Feng a chance to study the mechanical beast.

“Did you see anything?”

“Yes.”

“What did you see?”

“It has run out of energy.”

Ouyang Yue was speechless.

When Ouyang Feng saw the dark expression on Ouyang Yue’s face, he did not tease him anymore and went into business, “We can’t see anything like this. You have to bring the mechanical beast back, disassemble it, and study its parts one by one. After all, considering the advancement of technology, I’m sure we will be able to get something compared to three years ago. However, I’m not trying to be biased, but there’s a good chance that Ouyang Ya has something to do with the awakening of the mechanical beasts. After all, from the mechanical beast that I dissected three years ago, I can see that their sensory system bears a lot of similarity to that of a dog.

“In other words, their sensory system allows them to consider someone as their master or alpha. They treat Ouyang Zhui as their master in the past. After the death of Ouyang Zhui, they are likely to take Ouyang Ya, who also has some characteristics with Ouyang Zhui, as their new master.”

“Similar to a dog? But a dog’s sensory organ is more accurate than theirs. At least a dog won’t recognize its owner wrongly.”

“That’s why I said it’s very similar. So when an error occurred, they mistook Ouyang Ya as Ouyang Zhui. In my opinion, this is not that bad at all. Ouyang Ya could take advantage of this error and make the mechanical beasts work for the Ouyang Family,” Ouyang Feng said.

When he turned his head around, he realized that Fu Zhi was getting more and more impatient. Perhaps it was too complicated, so she did not understand a single thing he said. He turned his computer towards her, and said, “Come, you can play some games while waiting for me.”

Ouyang Yue was stunned, “Ms. Fu is there too?”

“Yes,” Fu Zhi replied, “I’m here, but I’m not listening. You guys can continue.”

Ouyang Yue was speechless.

He did not know how he should explain his feelings right now. Since they were talking about the Ouyang Family’s secret, he might not be happy about it and there was a good chance he might want to get rid of her if she was another person, but he felt it was fine for Fu Zhi to listen to these secrets.

Fu Zhi took a seat and began playing her games.

Ouyang Feng went to a corner to continue the conversation.

Ouyang Yue had been focusing on Fu Zhi after he knew Fu Zhi was at Ouyang Feng’s office, so he did not notice that the mechanical beast had opened up its eyes.

It flailed its tail and cocked its head. It blinked its eyes mechanically and looked towards Ouyang Yue’s phone.

However, when it saw Ouyang Feng’s face, it was stunned and it nearly tossed some cookies.

‘Who the hell is this ugly man?!’

Ouyang Feng wanted to continue the discussion about the mechanical beast with Ouyang Yue, but Ouyang Yue kept bringing the topic back to Fu Zhi.

The young man in front of him became the head of the Ouyang Family at a very young age. He was very confident and decisive, and he always finished his mission without any mistake.

However…

He did not have a girlfriend.

Therefore, when Ouyang Yue asked Ouyang Feng about Fu Zhi’s grades in school, Ouyang Feng’s eyes lit up as an idea popped up in his head. He asked, “Do you like Fu Zhi? If not, then why do you keep talking about her? If you really like Fu Zhi, you can let me know. I will try my best to match you two up. It’s just that you have to pay me some money.”

Ouyang Yue was dumbfounded.

“Yes, I like her, but…”

Ouyang Yue did not know how to describe the feelings. He liked her but not in a romantic way. If he had to describe his feelings towards her, it would be like this..

Ouyang Yue said, “I want her to become my family.”

“That won’t work. She’s too young to marry.”

“You’ve misunderstood, uncle. I’m not going to marry her.”

“I know, I know,” Ouyang Feng said, “I know you’re just too shy to admit it, but son, if you really like her, you have to man up, walk out of your comfort zone, and tell her your feelings. If not, then you’re going to regret later in your life, and I won’t be able to get any money from you.”

“Uncle, I just want to be her brother. I don’t like her and I don’t deserve her. However, if you have a son in the future, you can ask him to marry her.”

Ouyang Feng was stunned.

‘Do you know what you are talking about? You don’t want to marry her, but you want my son to marry her instead?’

Ouyang Feng did not want to talk to him anymore, so he hung up the call.

In the meantime, Fu Zhi received a few messages through QQ and all of them, including Lu Yubai and He Ming, were asking her for lunch.

For a moment, Ouyang Feng had a feeling that if it were not for that he was the principal of No.1 High School, he might not be able to get in touch with Fu Zhi at all.

Just when Ouyang Feng was thinking, something knocked on the door.

“Come in,” he said.

A figure pushed the door open and came into the office. His forehead was filled with large beads of sweat as he glanced across the office. When he saw Fu Zhi, he dashed up to her. “Sister Zhi! This is bad! Something happened to Song Fang and the others, so you’ve got to save them!”

“What? What’s going on?” Fu ZHi asked with a frown.

The person who came to look for her was her classmate.

He wiped the sweat off his forehead and said, “It’s on the same day you went to Myanmar. The people from Hang Yuan came and mocked our basketball team. They wanted to compare results with us. Initially, Song Fang wanted to wait for you to come back together to deal with them, but they kept mocking us.”
