Chapter 322 - 318: Catching the Turtle in the Jar
Chapter 322: Chapter 318: Catching the Turtle in the Jar
Upon receiving Bai Qi’s instructions, apart from Delta, whose energy had been overly consumed earlier, the other three beasts all rushed out. Naturally, the first one to attack was the husky that had just advanced to the King level.
A three-headed giant wolf jumped right off the mountaintop, and before landing, the left Soul Head clung onto Beta’s head like armor, dying it black. Simultaneously, its body quickly transformed, gradually becoming of human shape.
At the same time, on the right side, Schuck gradually melted, turning into a metal war dress that wrapped their bodies and condensed a metal staff in his right hand.
From afar, it looked just like the wolf-headed guardians in the temple.
“So they did get the myth inheritance…”
Seeing this, Dean slightly tugged at the corner of his mouth, and the Holy Light Angel immediately spread its wings and descended. Everywhere it passed, Martial Souls melted like snow.
The appearance of the Holy Light Angel caused a great disturbance among the Beast Soul Warriors. But before they could react, their attention was drawn to another direction.
A humanoid creature with a staff in hand and a black wolf head from the sky. Just a single howl made the surrounding Beast Soul Warriors feel unstable, as if they would lose connection with their Martial Souls at any moment.
Not only that, but right after landing, Jerry made a few swift attacks. Though they seemed ordinary, each one managed to inflict tangible harm on the Martial Souls.
The Heart of Death God endowed the husky with a strong sense of combat and battle form, and the Soul Blessing gave the Husky the power to directly damage souls. This configuration was a natural counter against the Beast Soul Warriors who relied on their Martial Souls in battle.
Perhaps stimulated by the husky’s brilliant performance, Alpha’s will to fight was ignited, and he directly killed into the ranks of the Death Round Table with his flying swords wrapped around him.
In contrast to Martial Souls, these armor knights with a close relationship with the Power of Death could attract Bai Qi’s attention more.
Click, click, where did Gamma go?
Looking at the empty battlefield around him, Gamma was somewhat at a loss, until he saw a few Beast Masters who were powerless to resist the enemy’s attack. He then got into the spirit and started to do his old job.
(Healing and defense are indeed simpler. As for fighting and such, it’s too complicated. It doesn’t suit Gamma.)
…
Above the sky.
Bai Heguang scanned the battlefield below, and when he saw the performance of Bai Qi’s beasts, a touch of unnoticeable relief flashed in his eyes, which was quickly replaced by sharpness.
Bai Heguang’s gaze was cold as he looked at the Nine-tailed White Fox in front of him and said, “You dare to intrude into the Federation’s heartland, does your tribe intend to wage war against the Federation?”
The white fox drooped its eyelids slightly and spoke, “The Celestial Brilliance misunderstands, I, the concubine, just heard that my clan’s heritage has emerged here and wanted to come to witness it. Since it’s a misunderstanding, I, the concubine, will leave now.”
“Well well… Beautiful lady, how about joining me for a cup of tea? If we don’t properly entertain our guests, that would be a violation of our human etiquette.”
Upon hearing these words, Wang Chen showed a sunny smile.
Sir Starlight’s kindness is appreciated, ma’am, but I still have some things to do, so I won’t bother you any longer. Excuse me.”
The Nine-tailed White Fox bowed to the three of them and immediately planned to retreat, only to find the Jiuyou Darkbird suddenly blocking her way.
“Since you’ve come all the way, why not leave something behind?”
As soon as the words fell, the world suddenly lost its color. Ferocious beasts, humans, even clouds all turned grayish-white. The Legendary Ferocious Beasts, led by the White Fox, immediately felt their bodies, energy, and even souls gradually entering a state of silence.
“Netherworld Realm…ah…”
The White Fox sighed lightly. Behind her, the nine white tails shook, and a white domain suddenly opened up, which could only protect herself and the two companions beside her and couldn’t extend any further.
“It’s too suffocating. Since I’m here, I have to make a big fuss!”
A Flame Giant Tiger who could no longer bear to see the situation, roared, and a cloud of burning blue flame appeared instantly, floating towards the Federation Army and Beast Masters below.
But before the blue clouds could land, a gold giant scorpion blocked its way and punctured all those blue clouds with a continuous sting from its tail needle.
Malik’s face remained calm as he looked at the pissed-off Giant Tiger and said, “This is the territory of the Yixiu family, mind your manners.”
“Well, well, well… you were the ones who were rude first, so don’t blame me for any consequences.”
Still that sunny smile, but coupled with the Morning Star Mech that had just turned into a doomsday cannon behind him, Wang Chen’s smile seemed incredibly dangerous.
“It seems, we can’t settle this peacefully today.”
The White Fox sighed lightly and looked at the giant eagle beside her, who understood immediately. A gust of wind swept across the whole battlefield, and then the giant eagle rushed straight into the sky along this wind.
“They have a short memory…”
Seeing this, Wang Chen narrowed his eyes instantly, and a horrifying energy blasted from the Morning Star’s doomsday cannon, shooting straight into the sky.
Almost instantly, a giant eagle with its body charred black fell from the sky.
Seeing this scene, the Flame Giant Tiger also realized the difference and hurriedly wanted to retreat, but found the Jiuyou Darkbird suddenly blocking its way. The White Fox, who should have been confronting Jiuyou, had disappeared without a trace.
“Bastard! I’ll tear you to pieces when I get back!”
The Flame Giant Tiger roared towards the sky, but before its voice could spread out, it was completely annihilated within the Netherworld Realm.
“Is it really okay to let that White Fox go? She’s the main strategist for the Ferocious Beasts. Isn’t it a bit wasteful not to keep her since she ventured out this time by herself?”
Malik looked at the disappearing Silver and asked.
“It doesn’t matter. This operation was to clean out a group of rats. If we can solve two Legendary Ferocious Beasts on the way, it’s already a big harvest, so there’s no need to completely fall out with the tribe.”
Bai Heguang shook his head, looking down at the forces of the Death Round Table and saying, “However, the Death Round Table should be investigated thoroughly. There aren’t supposed to be so many people in the intelligence.”
“Leave it to me, the snare has begun screening, we should have results promptly.”
Wang Chen put away the Morning Star and looked towards the distinctly dimmed obelisk on the side, “But what should we do with the Sun Secret Realm? From its looks, whatever’s inside will probably come out soon.”
“It can’t come out.”
Bai Heguang shook his head, glanced at Malik on the side, who understood immediately. He commanded the Golden Giant Scorpion to the front of the obelisk; its golden tail pin inserted into the large eye rune.
In an instant, the obelisk emitted intense light. Bai Qi and the others felt the cliff underfoot shake. The obelisk had returned to the ground and looked unchanged from the beginning.
Except for the scattered remnants of the knight’s armor on the ground and the beast soul warriors captured one by one.
Looking at the mess around him, it was the first time Bai Qi truly understood the strength of the Federation.
Mechanized military pet beasts, Starry Sky Gate transport, snare’s comprehensive surveillance.
Trying to cause any trouble on Federation soil was really a bit difficult.
But what concerned Bai Qi the most was the performance of his teacher and Wang Chen.
Legendary ferocious beasts from the tribes couldn’t even withstand a single move from their pet beasts. How could there be such a large gap between creatures of the same legend?
The dust quickly settled. All beast soul warriors were captured, but those from the Death Round Table lost consciousness the moment they fell. Obviously, they had planned this.
“How does it feel to be involved in such a big event for the first time?”
Luo Xiang descended from the sky, smiling as he looked at Bai Qi.
Bai Qi glanced at the three Titled Legends above who seemed to be consulting about something, “Not bad, but the lineup seems a bit luxurious.”
Titled Legendary, that was already the Federation’s top combat power. It was considered lucky to see one on ordinary days, but now three had gathered at once. It seemed a bit exaggerated no matter how you looked at it.
“That’s as expected, after all, this operation is not just for the tribes.”
Luo Xiang smiled, casting a barely noticeable glance at the Bo Ge family on the side.
Was it to intimidate these major clans in the west?
Upon hearing this, Bai Qi understood and remembered the rumors about the western clans.
Turns out, they were coming to flex their muscles.
But it didn’t matter, as long as the Mythical Secret Realm was real. After all, he also benefitted a bit.
He glances at the still sleeping beetle grass in the Secret Realm Base. Bai Qi was full of anticipation.
How could the shell shed by the Mythical creature be inferior to Jerry?
“Okay, we’ve had enough fun for today. Go rest. Bai Chuanqi and the others will probably come and ask you about the conditions in the Secret Realm.”
“Alright.”
Bai Qi nodded, he was fine, but his few pet beasts seemed a bit exhausted from the day’s events. It was time for a good rest.
…
Nile City Association.
“Thank you, both of you.”
Bai Qi dismounted from a Broken Army, waved his hand at the two Federal soldiers who had escorted him back, showing his gratitude.
Due to the operation to exterminate the hidden beast soul warriors, the entire Nile City had been taken over by the army. Even Bai Qi, as a legendary disciple, needed to return to the Association under the supervision of the army.
However, Bai Qi didn’t mind this. Free rides were always welcome.
Once back in his room, Bai Qi immediately entered the Secret Realm Base.
The Husky that had just evolved into King-level seemed to have inexhaustible energy, romping around the Secret Realm. Whereas Jerry didn’t seem to care about stopping it, just quietly recharging his energy with his eyes closed.
On the contrary, it was Alpha, standing quietly in its training ground, staring at the Sword of Death in a trance.
“What’s wrong, Alpha? Did you get hurt in the battle just now?”
Click clack click clack.
(No boss, I was just thinking, what exactly was on those armors, and that black fog serpent…)
Alpha didn’t finish its sentence, but Bai Qi clearly felt Alpha’s emotions.
Curiosity, astonishment.
But most of all, it was fear stemming from its bloodline.
This fear didn’t come from the Undead Clan, but from the Power of Death that Alpha had mastered.
“Could that black fog serpent be the source of the Power of Death?”
Bai Qi slightly frowned, thinking of the Emperor’s Secret Realm, then the Mythical Secret Realm. All these powerful realms showed traces of the Power of Death. Perhaps he should find a chance to learn more from his teacher.
“I’ll ask when the teacher comes back.”
