The White Deer nudged Chatiya's hand, seemingly quite fond of her.

"Does she have a name?" Chatiya asked.

Herag said, "No, how about we call her Er Ya?"

The White Deer turned her head and glared at Herag, scraping her hooves a few times, clearly discontent with the name.

Chatiya giggled, "What's with that name, sir."

"She's your friend, so you should name her," Herag laughed.

Chatiya tapped her chin with a finger, and after a moment's thought, she said, "How about I call you Annie?"

The White Deer rubbed her head against Chatiya, indicating her approval.

"Then it's settled!" Chatiya laughed.

Before long, Chatiya was sitting sideways on the White Deer's back.

The White Deer carried Chatiya, running around, occasionally disappearing from one spot and reappearing far away through space travel.

It was only then that Herag noticed that the White Deer's space travel ability could take others along.

However, his own Spirit of White Dew talent didn't have this capability.

Herag thought about it. It seemed the talent he obtained from the White Deer's bloodline wasn't complete, just a part of it.

The Great Dark Heaven magic extracts bloodline powers from various bloodlines, usually gaining only part of them, like some talents.

The Spirit of the White Deer was such a case. Although Herag absorbed many of the White Deer's bloodline powers later on, there wasn't much improvement or gain.

But there were exceptions, like the Thunder God Ancestral Bloodline Power within him.

The black little body then only had a thread of the Thunder God Ancestral Bloodline. Normally, it would be lucky for Herag to gain some talent ability from it.

However, Herag managed to gain a bloodline mark from this thread of ancestral bloodline and awakened the true Thunder God Ancestral Bloodline Power.

The probability of this happening was incredibly low; it could be said Herag was incredibly lucky.

Reflecting on this further, Herag had some doubts and concerns about it.

He didn't believe he was a chosen one, so lucky to obtain the true ancestral bloodline power from just a thread of ancestral bloodline.

Given his limited understanding of ancestral-level entities, Herag couldn't make an accurate judgment.

Intuitively, he thought this ancestral bloodline might not be entirely a good thing and could harbor some hidden dangers.

An ancestor, an eternal and indestructible existence.

Herag pondered what would happen if he encountered the true Thunder God Ancestor one day, and what his attitude towards him would be.

Would he see him as a descendant or just a crop ready to be harvested...

Herag planned to talk to the Toad about this later, to see if he knew anything.

These matters weren't urgent, given his current level, they were still far away.

Even if there were some issues within the ancestral bloodline, it temporarily had nothing to do with him, the power gap was too vast.

Herag looked at Chatiya, who was having a great time in the distance, and said, "Later, I'll move some things in here to ensure you won't be too bored. With Annie to keep you company, you shouldn't feel too lonely. I'll come in often to keep you company too."

Chatiya smiled, "Alright~ I'll follow your arrangements, sir."

Herag planned to bring in not only food and other supplies but also lots of entertainment-related items.

He even considered building some lawns and gardens here to make it look less desolate.

Previously, with only the White Deer, conditions didn't matter much.

But now that he intended for Chatiya to stay here for some time, it was necessary to provide a good environment.

That said, it wasn't like Chatiya would have to stay here all the time, just hide her inside when passing through the teleportation altar.

...

A month later.

Herag arrived at Augustus Academy, at that familiar coliseum-like place.

He didn't bring Asuna and Reese along; only some people from the Cheqi Family and the Nightingale Commerce Association accompanied him.

The coliseum was now heavily guarded, making it difficult for ordinary people to enter.

After arriving outside the coliseum, Herag bid farewell to Mr. Booker and the Nightingale Commerce Association couple and headed alone into the coliseum.

During this time, the couple from the Nightingale Commerce Association had helped a lot, preparing some of the things and supplies Herag needed.

Herag took out a talisman stone and, after going through multiple layers of identity verification, finally arrived at the familiar teleportation altar.

Guarding the altar was an old wizard with graying hair and a long beard.

He looked up at Herag, took the talisman stone Herag handed over, checked it, confirmed it was correct, and said, "You may go through now."

"Can I ask if I'm still going to Base 27 this time?" Herag asked.

The old wizard nodded, "That's how the expedition team arranged it because you've been there before and are most familiar with the area. But if you want to go to another base, I can change the teleportation location for you."

"Oh, thanks, but no need, Base 27 will do," Herag said.

Naturally, Herag wanted to go to Base 27. Going to another base where he was unfamiliar with the place would require time to get used to, wasting a lot of time.

"Be cautious there, it's not quite the same as before, so do be careful," the old wizard warned.

Standing on the teleportation altar, Herag nodded.

A flash of light, and the space around rippled, bringing back a familiar sensation.

Once the surroundings regained light, Herag found himself on the teleportation altar at Base 27.

Herag glanced around, clearly noticing that Base 27 had grown much larger.

Originally, the base had only some wooden houses. Now there were already over a hundred wooden houses, with people constantly coming and going.

Herag's arrival also caught some people's attention, but they weren't surprised, clearly accustomed to frequent arrivals.

He stopped a passing wizard and asked, "Excuse me, where can I find Kane?"

This wizard was a blonde male wizard, his magic power aura indicating he was a Level 2 Wizard.

He looked at Herag and said, "He should be in the main camp up ahead."

"Thank you," Herag thanked him and walked towards the main camp.

According to the information, Base 27 was currently managed by Kane, who handled daily affairs.

Originally, by the rules, after Parker got injured and withdrew, the expedition team would continue to send a Level 3 Wizard to oversee it.

But now, due to changes in circumstances, they didn't plan to continue expanding and even considered withdrawing, so they hadn't sent a Level 3 Wizard over.

They just let Kane, a Level 2 Wizard, temporarily manage the base's affairs since he was an old hand there and familiar with everything.
