“This place is still as terrifying as before,” Dragon Town whispered in Vincent Wolf’s ear.
“You’re not kidding!” Vincent Wolf glanced forward and chatted casually with
Dragon Town, “By the way, I just remembered after hearing what you said, Uncle Town, did you come here with my father before? Where did he get injured? What kind of magical beast attacked him?”
Dragon Town paused for a moment upon hearing this before sinking into his memories.
After a while, Dragon Town spoke in a low voice:
“Eight years ago, I followed your father to an island where we were attacked by the magical beasts living there. There was a magical beast called the Shadow Puppet, which with only a mid-level strength tormented all of us, forcing us to flee desperately. If we hadn’t run away in time, we might have perished in the Devil’s Domain.”
“This so-called Shadow Puppet magical beast is formidable indeed!” Vincent Wolf could not help but be surprised.
“In terms of trouble and deception, this beast ranks first among all the magical beasts I have encountered. It has been eight years, and who knows, its strength might have already reached High-Level Commanders, making it even more difficult to deal with!” Dragon Town’s voice was full of helplessness.
Dragon Town also wanted to find the Shadow Puppet to avenge the enmity from that year, but with his current strength, he had no way of winning.
“Don’t worry. Let it bounce around for a while, and when you’re promoted to
Monarch-level, you can come back and settle the score!”
“But the evolution secret hasn’t started yet.”
“Don’t worry; it will be soon.”
Originally, Vincent Wolf planned to wait until he was promoted to Master-level Beast Master, then have Little Blue reach Commander-level before conducting the ancient simulation. Still, it seemed he wouldn’t be able to wait that long.
There have been many crises recently, and there is an urgent need for combat ability.
Guardian Yan and Brad Winter are not Vincent Wolf’s bodyguards, and they have their own affairs. Who knows if they might run away one day, so it’s better to improve Dragon Town’s combat ability as soon as possible to have some security.
While Vincent Wolf was still talking to Dragon Town, Guardian Yan had already summoned the Ten-Thousand Beast Spirit Sword from the Beast Space.
After summoning the Ten-Thousand Beast Spirit Sword, Guardian Yan tied two Light stones to it. Then, the Ten-Thousand Beast Spirit Sword let out a low hum, and it darted away at an incredible speed, disappearing from sight.
“Guardian Yan, what’s going on?”
“I’m letting it patrol the mountain.”
“Aren’t we supposed to patrol?”
“What, are you stupid? How much ground can we cover in a day? We wouldn’t even be able to cover this entire mountain. The Ten-Thousand Beast Spirit Sword can patrol the entire area in just a few minutes. Who do you think is faster?”
Vincent Wolf was somewhat embarrassed.
“That’s true. If we relied solely on ourselves, we wouldn’t be able to finish searching even after Light God Country’s people finished purifying the place.” “Glad you understand.” Guardian Yan said irritably.
Just then, a faint glow emerged from the darkness ahead. Vincent Wolf looked closely and saw three men holding Light stones approaching Guardian Yan and Vincent Wolf.
The men sized up Vincent Wolf and Guardian Yan, and were not rude in attitude. They clasped their hands together and said, “This Stone Forest Mountain is under the jurisdiction of our Red Maple Mercenary Group. What do you two want here?”
Guardian Yan replied with a pleasant expression, “So, it’s the Red Maple
Mercenary Group. I have met your Leader Fang a couple of times.”
The other party hesitated for a moment and gave Guardian Yan another close look. Clearly surprised, he hurriedly said respectfully, “Oh, it’s Master Yan! I apologize for not recognizing you the first time!”
“It’s all right. After all, I don’t often show my face in the capital city, so it’s only natural not to recognize me.”
“I just didn’t see your face clearly earlier, otherwise, I definitely wouldn’t have failed to recognize the famous Master Yan. Our Leader Fang often boasts to us that he has been fortunate enough to meet you in person!” The other party flattered.
“Ha-ha, there’s nothing to brag about seeing this old man!”
Upon hearing this, the smile on the man’s face faded, and he let out a heavy sigh, “Things have been chaotic recently. One of our brothers was severely injured and almost died. Leader Fang went to take revenge, and it won’t be over anytime soon.”
After remaining silent for a moment, Guardian Yan said:”ln a while, we might not even have this Devil’s Domain to worry about.”
The other party then gave a bitter smile:
“If I had a choice, I’d rather the Devil’s Domain stay. It’s dangerous, but it also brings many benefits. If the Devil’s Domain disappears, mercenary groups like ours that have been operating here for years will be out of work.” “It’s not easy for you guys either, but this is the City Lord’s intention…”
“We understand, we can’t defy the city. It’s just…from now on, our team members will lose their chances for advancement.”
Both sides fell silent.
Vincent Wolf understood.
The higher the level of the Beast Master, the more difficult it is to break through and the more money it takes to do so.
An ordinary family can afford to raise a professional beast tamer, but once they advance to Master-level Beast Master, the family is generally unable to help them any further.
A Master-level Beast Master needs to raise three pets, and to ensure the normal growth of their pets, their monthly expenses are an astonishing figure.
If they want to ensure the Beast Master’s cultivation speed at the same time, the money they need to spend is beyond what an ordinary job can cover.
Working in a Beast Master mercenary group allows them to train their pets in real combat, gain various resources such as spirit medicine or materials from magical beasts, and exchange experiences with other team members.
For a Beast Master of ordinary background, this is absolutely one of the best jobs.
Nowadays, the Devil’s Domain is about to be purified by the Light God Country, which means that all the magical beasts inside will be wiped out. As a result, the mercenary groups stationed in the Devil’s Domain will no longer be necessary.
In the silence, the people from the Red Maple Mercenary Group spoke up first.
“Master Yan, we have some matters to attend to, so we’ll take our leave. You can continue with your work.” “Alright, I’ll visit you guys when I have time.”
“We look forward to your visit.”
After the pleasantries, the three of them turned around and left.
Once the others were gone, Ten-Thousand Beast Spirit Sword floated over and had a chat with Yan Weijun.
“Let’s go. There’s nothing unusual on Stone Forest Mountain.”
After a morning of traveling, Yan Weijun carried Vincent Wolf on his sword, inspecting many locations in the mountain range. Most of them had no abnormalities, and the remaining small parts were resolved by the Ten-Thousand Beast Spirit Sword.
“It’s about time for the Light God Country to enter the Devil’s Domain.” Yan Weijun checked his phone and said.
“But it seems like we haven’t finished inspecting everything.”
“It’s close enough. Do you really think I can singlehandedly make a difference?” Yan Weijun sneered, “If I could achieve that, we wouldn’t need the people from the Light God Country.”
“So, our inspection is meaningless?”
“How can it be meaningless? Didn’t I just take you through several rounds and inform you of the dangers within the Devil’s Domain? Moreover, inspecting beforehand shows more respect to those people. Remember, we’re relying on them, so we have to stay humble.”
Then, Yan Weijun, carrying Vincent Wolf on his sword, flew towards the Secret Realm Gate.
Brad Winter searched continuously on his flying mount within the island. “Strange, the signal I sensed earlier was clearly around here.”
Brad Winter was secretly cautious in his heart. His field of vision was limited to only two meters around him, but he had a means to expand his field of vision in case of emergencies. If he used it regularly, it would draw too much attention and risk attracting high-level magical beasts.
He needed to find someone now, and he preferred not to cause any trouble if he could avoid it.
What Brad Winter failed to notice was that about a hundred meters away from him, there were two cold, vertical pupils staring at him intently—greed filling their eyes.
However, after sensing Brad Winter’s strength, the greedy eyes disappeared, pausing for a moment before merging into the darkness and vanishing..
