Chapter 666 The Rebirth of the Right Eye (2/2)
The muddy fluid continued to flow from Caesar’s eyes, but its colour was lightening. Soon, it was as transparent as normal tears, and these tears that had become diluted also stopped having such a strong effect on the grass. Shao Xuan breathed out a sigh of relief.
Everything seems to be going well so far?
Even so, Shao Xuan didn’t dare to take any risks. Just like the shaman had said, he had never heard of anyone putting a True Eye on a fearsome beast, much less a beast that had been marked with another tribe’s sign. He had to be careful throughout the entire process.
The tearlike substance stopped flowing from Caesar’s right eye. The initially bulging tissue under his eyelids also shrunk gradually. It wasn’t as swollen as before.
Checking Caesar’s perfect left eye, and then comparing it to his right, both sides seemed quite balanced now. There were no dents or bulges.
Shao Xuan wanted to try opening up Caesar’s eyelids on his right eye to check the progress, but the merging process was still ongoing, so Shao Xuan didn’t dare to take any risks. If he disturbed it in the middle of the process, he might waste all his previous effort.
Another half an hour passed. Caesar jerked suddenly and struggled in deep pain on the ground.
“Has the repulsion started?” Shao Xuan observed Caesar’s reactions closely. If it was indeed rejecting his body and causing him to react severely, then Shao Xuan would pull out the True Eye from his socket right away. Even though it might hurt Caesar, he knew that it might endanger Caesar’s life if he let it drag on any longer. The Jing shaman had reminded him about this.
But just as Shao Xuan reached his hand out, Caesar stopped struggling. His right eye moved slowly under his closed eyelids, as if he was trying to open his eyes.
After he lost his right eye, Caesar couldn’t even move his eyelids, not to mention open his eyes, but now he was trying to open his eyes, so this was a huge improvement. After his eyes struggled many times to open, his eyelids finally opened slowly.
In Caesar’s right eye socket, there was a white eyeball with a small black dot in the centre. The black dot was exactly the same size as the True Eye. Compared to the entire eyeball, the black dot in the centre was too small.
But very soon, the black dot in the centre sent out radial extensions of thickly intertwined threadlike fibres. A greyish colour extending from the black dot.
The grey fibres that were extending from the black dot widened, and simultaneously, the black dot was also enlarged at the pace of Caesar’s heartrate.
Shao Xuan had once thought, ‘How could such a small Eye change to fit Caesar’s large eyes?’
The Jing shaman told him that the True Eye had the ability to evolve to merge with the owner. What he was seeing now matched with what the shaman had told him.
Caesar’s right eye was gradually becoming complete. It became similar to his left eye, and as the pupil of his right eye widened, it was slowly matching with his left.
It was successful!
Seeing how Caesar’s right eye was slowly resembling his left, Shao Xuan could finally relax. He punched his fists with might. This was better than he had expected. Even though there was a reaction during the merging process, it was not severe, and he also succeeded.
Caesar was not used to his new right eye. He had been blind on the right for so long, and suddenly his field of vision expanded. He was a little confused at first, but later he became excited. He hopped cheerfully on the same spot and then lifted his head and howled in celebration.
“Awooo----”
Under the mountain, the people who were patrolling looked up suspiciously when they heard the roar.
“Doesn’t Caesar sound a little… excited?” someone asked in the team.
“Caesar’s a good wolf, but it’s too bad that he lost an eye,” another person lamented.
“So what if he lost an eye? He can still hunt like before. That’s still quite impressive,” a younger warrior remarked.
“But he was a lot better when he had both eyes. It’s too bad.”
Some people still had things to say, but they stopped when they saw Shao Xuan coming over with Caesar.
Caesar was unusually excited today. He even purposely bumped into the patrolling soldiers as he passed by, but he didn’t use too much force. To the Flaming Horn warriors, it was just a friendly gesture.
The patrolling warriors played bumping with Caesar for a while before he left with Shao Xuan.
“What’s wrong,leader?” the person who was playing bumping with Caesar asking his team leader cheerfully.
He noticed his leader staring at the wolf that was walking away.
“Didn’t you guys notice?” their leader asked as he looked at the wolf.
“Notice what?”
“Caesar’s eyes!”
“Why do you keep looking at his eyes? Stop focusing on how he had lost his eye. Even if he’s just a wolf, he wouldn’t be happy if he heard it. Look at Caesar just now. His eyes……”
The person who was speaking suddenly halted.
Everyone else in the team was lost for words. They didn’t know what to say.
Damn!
