Chapter 35
Seeing that Zhou Cang was still unwilling to give in, the man's face turned the color of pig liver.
The flying squirrel was the first spiritual pet that signed a contract with him. Although its grade and level were not very high, it could surpass most of the fierce beasts in terms of speed.
More importantly, without the flying squirrel, he would lose the qualification to participate in the league.
Although his A-level talent [Skill Enhancement] could be considered outstanding among ordinary people, it could only be said to be mediocre in the league.
But as long as he could participate in the league, he might be appreciated by some forces, and the resources he would get at that time would be immeasurable.
Thinking of this, the man spoke again: "Seven million spirit stones, this is the highest price I can afford. If you agree, let my flying squirrel go. If you don't agree, kill it."
Seven million? Seven million!
"Deal!" Zhou Cang smiled and nodded in response.
The man took out a thin jade card from his pocket with a painful look on his face, and threw his space storage bag to Zhou Cang.
"The card is anonymous. There are more than 4 million spirit stones in it. The resources in the space storage bag are worth 3 million spirit stones. Let me release my flying squirrel." The man gnashed his teeth and shouted.
"Okay! I forgot to tell you that I will also go to the league in four days. See you in four days." Zhou Cang replied with a smile. The black dragon turtle roared, slapped the flying squirrel away and retreated.
On the other side, Zhai Simu and the other two were also retreating under the fierce attack of the six-tailed phoenix.
"What are they doing? Why don't they retreat!" Zhai Simu shouted angrily.
"Brother... they seem to have been intercepted." Zhang Jinbiao looked at the direction where the man was and stammered.
...
After a while, the six-tailed phoenix looked at the direction where Zhai Simu and others retreated with a look of loss, and more than a dozen golden phoenixes gathered around the seriously injured companion.
A bird chirped, and a giant golden-winged bird appeared in the sky, with a young woman standing on its back, slowly landing next to the six-tailed phoenix.
The six-tailed phoenix wailed and dived into the woman's arms.
"You little guys! Come out!" The woman whispered in one direction. Although her voice was not loud, it was very penetrating.
"Alas! Teacher Luo Li still found me." Zhou Cang patted the head of the black dragon turtle and whispered.
The person who came was Luo Li. Everything that happened here just now was seen by Luo Li who was hiding not far away.
Zhou Cang walked to the six-tailed phoenix with an embarrassed face, holding the spirit pet egg in his arms.
"Senior! I'm sorry, I just took the initiative to snatch your child. If necessary, I can return it to you." Zhou Cang held the spirit pet egg in both hands and said softly.
The six-tailed phoenix's eyes wandered back and forth between Zhou Cang and Zheng Xiaomin. After hesitating for a moment, it gently rubbed the spirit pet egg in Zhou Cang's hand with its mouth, and finally pushed it back.
"It hopes you can treat its child well. The spirit pet egg is now yours." Luo Li said softly.
"Really? Thank you!" Zheng Xiaoyu cried with joy, took the spirit pet egg from Zhou Cang's hand, and looked at the six-tailed phoenix with gratitude.
Zhou Cang could vaguely feel a beam of eyes staring at him, but he didn't know where the other party was at this time.
"The dean should be here too, right? Dean Zhang? Dean Zhang, come out! Save this three-tailed golden phoenix phoenix, it's dying." Zhou Cang shouted, while moving forward and gently pressing the wound of the injured phoenix.
"Here it comes! How did you find me?" A burst of laughter came from behind Zhou Cang, and the figure of Dean Zhang appeared out of thin air on the open ground.
Zhang Lixian was a little confused when he heard Zhou Cang's call. He was a high-level beastmaster, but was recognized by Zhou Cang, an apprentice beastmaster?
After Zhou Cang signed a contract with the Void Unicorn, his sensitivity to space and time became several times stronger.
Space and time can be understood as a glass of water. Dean Zhang, who was hidden in the cracks of the space, can be compared to a grain of sand in the water. Any changes in the water will cause slight ripples on the water surface.
Zhou Cang felt the subtle changes in the surrounding space and discovered the existence of Dean Zhang.
"Where are the others? There should be more than one of you, right?" Zhou Cang asked indifferently.
"The beasts besieged the fifth division. They went to help first. You will go back with me later." Dean Zhang replied casually, took out a glass bottle from the space storage bag, and sprinkled the powder inside on the wound of the injured Luan bird.
"Zizi..." A burning sound was heard, and the injured phoenix wailed in pain, but the wound stopped bleeding instantly.
"Okay, you will recover after a period of rest. Just avoid strenuous exercise." Dean Zhang stood up and clapped his handsAs he spoke, another space crack appeared behind him.
"Close your eyes, don't open them, don't leave any psychological trauma." Zhou Cang whispered to Zheng Xiaoyu and Du Yuming.
...
After a dizzy spell, Zhou Cang and others appeared at the border station.
"There is a space beast attack! At the entrance of Border Station No. 302! Calling for support from the beastmaster!"
"Remove the alarm! It's the dean of the branch school, Zhang Lixian! Manpower to defend the city wall!"
"Border Station No. 287 calls for support! The beasts here are too dense! Insufficient firepower! Insufficient firepower!"
The ears of several people were filled with painful screams and various instructions. There were constantly seriously injured people lying on stretchers and being carried down the city wall, and the ground was covered with blood.
"Is this the beast attacking the city?" Zhou Cang murmured.
Dean Zhang had long disappeared, and he had rushed into the battle zone the moment he walked out of the space crack.
"You guys retreat first. The situation is urgent now. I don't have time to look after you." Luo Li put her hand on Zhou Cang's shoulder and said softly.
"Seniors, you go back to the students first. I'll go help Teacher Luo Li." Zhou Cang said quickly.
While Zhou Cang was talking, Luo Li disappeared when he turned around.
"Why are you standing there! You are threatening here! Either go back to your academy or help transport ammunition!" A middle-aged man in his thirties dragged Zhou Cang behind a heavy truck and roared.
"I'll help!" Zhou Cang said quickly, carrying a box of ammunition weighing hundreds of pounds from the heavy truck and rushed to the city wall.
The steps of the more than 30-meter-high city wall were now covered with bloodstains. Smelling the bloody smell, Zhou Cang was also full of trepidation.
Strictly speaking, this was Zhou Cang's first time to participate in a head-on battle with a ferocious beast.
Following several guards transporting ammunition in front, Zhou Cang carried the ammunition box and went into a doorway on the city wall.
