"Can it fly while carrying heavy items?" Han Sen asked, examining the bird.

"Yes; it is much stronger than Baron class Jade Night Cranes, but it has no legs and its wings are damaged," Yun Suyi repeated. "It can't fly any faster than an average Baron. And its fighting abilities cannot compare with a Viscount mount."

"I'll take him." Han Sen did not plan on letting the mount do any fighting, so it'd be suitable for simple travel.

A damaged Jade Night Crane was not expensive, and it was just a little more pricey than basic xenogeneic gene material. Yun Suyi gave Han Sen a very good deal.

The Jade Night Crane was very tame, and Han Sen was quickly able to learn how to command it. He could control it in flight easily.

Because it had no legs, it always landed on its belly. And because the wings were partially disabled, it never could fly completely straight. Its speed left much to be desired, as well.
