After making the arrangements, the two of them rode the mutated beasts back to the base.
Just a few seconds after they left, the [Silver Shadow Leopard] poked its head out of the grass at the side and looked at the large pile of “bright stones” on the ground. Its silver eyes vaguely revealed some confusion.
[Thorn Canyon], in a small base.
Wang Xiao used a branch as a pen and drew the general direction of the canyon on the ground.
After circling a few locations, Wang Xiao began to set up. “I discovered the footprints of large mutated beasts in these places. I think their nest should be nearby.”
“Although my mutated beasts should be able to deal with it easily, I plan to let you train a little too, so I’ll lure those mutated beasts over. After that, I won’t attack. It’s up to you to deal with them.”
If it were in the past, Zhou Xiruo would definitely refuse when she heard this. However, after training with Wang Xiao for more than a month, she also wanted to know what level her strength had reached. She only hesitated for a moment before nodding and agreeing.
After confirming the plan, Wang Xiao rode the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] again and set off. Soon, he arrived at a fork in the canyon.
[Thorn Canyon] was not a canyon that ran all the way. There were many forks in the middle.
Previously, when he was scouting, Wang Xiao had seen a large number of footprints here. He followed the footprints into the canyon. Before he could see the situation inside, a black shadow suddenly rushed towards his face!
At the critical moment, Wang Xiao subconsciously leaned back. The black shadow almost brushed past the tip of his nose and nailed him into the rock wall with a clang.
Wang Xiao focused and discovered that it was something that looked like a goat horn. When he looked in the direction where the goat horn flew over, he saw a group of about ten antelopes with single horns climbing the mountain wall and staring at him.
The battle was about to begin.
Wang Xiao did not even have the time to take the [Identification Scroll]. More than ten antelopes lowered their heads at the same time and instantly, more than ten “horns” flew over!
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The horns tore through the air and almost turned into a phantom.
Unfortunately, the strength of the two sides was not on the same level at all.
Facing such an attack, the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] could not even be bothered to dodge. After a series of clanking sounds, the goat horns were all repelled, but there was not even a mark on its body.
However, the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] only turned around and swung its tail at the rock wall, almost causing most of the antelope mutated beasts to fall!
Seeing the anger in the eyes of the antelope mutated beasts, Wang Xiao knew that the time was almost right. Then, he patted the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon]. The latter immediately understood and turned around to fly towards the base.
More than ten antelope mutated beasts chased relentlessly on the ground. Every time they wanted to give up, the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] would return and harass them.
After repeating this five to six times, the base was already in front of them. The anger of the dozen or so antelope mutated beasts had also been stimulated to its peak by the continuous harassment of the Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon!
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
More than ten black horns soared into the sky. After Wang Xiao controlled the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] to dodge to the side, it flew past the sky above the base. “It’s up to you!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the five purple quality [Flame Magic Tower] were activated at the same time. Huge fireballs with magic attacks swept across the sky, and the dozen or so antelope mutated beasts were instantly swallowed by the sea of fire!
Unfortunately, Wang Xiao did not see this scene. After flying over the base, he flew to the back of the base without stopping. After all, those antelope mutated beasts were not strong. He believed that Zhou Xiruo could handle them.
As expected, by the time Wang Xiao led another batch of mutated beasts back, the dozen or so antelope mutated beasts were already gone.
After handing the battle to Zhou Xiruo, Wang Xiao set off to find other mutated beasts again.
With this cooperation, the two of them successfully killed more than a hundred mutated beasts in less than an hour!
In the end, they attracted a group of Shadow Apes. The time limit for the two of them to enter the secret realm was almost up.
Seeing this, Wang Xiao did not waste any more time and directly sent out the Ice Thunder Horn Wolf to fight. In just a few seconds, he wiped out the seven to eight silver level two Shadow Apes.
After collecting the materials dropped by the [Shadow Ape], Wang Xiao and Zhou Xiruo began to count their gains.
First, there were eleven [Breakthrough Stones]. Although he was still short of one to upgrade the Blazing Golden Crow, Wang Xiao was already quite satisfied.
If it was those open small secret realms, he might not even be able to obtain so many even if he cleared ten of them.
After that were the various materials obtained from the mutated beasts. These materials could be used to make tools or skill cards. Although Wang Xiao and Zhou Xiruo did not have this skill, they should be able to earn a lot when they return to the trading market.
Finally, the 3,000 [Metal Devouring Ants] had also refined many minerals after two hours. However, they were all common minerals like [Black Iron Ore] and [Fine Copper Ore].
In fact, other than these things, the two of them also obtained a lot of [Energy Cores]. However, the base fortifications had consumed a lot of energy, so it was neither a loss nor a gain. Therefore, Wang Xiao did not count these [Energy Cores] into his gains.
After calculating the total score, Wang Xiao and Zhou Xiruo revealed surprised expressions.
“We didn’t come in vain this time!”
Zhou Xiruo flipped through the dazzling array of resources and said happily, “The gains from this exploration are almost comparable to four to five small secret realms!”
“Danger and opportunity coexist. Otherwise, why would I make such a condition?”
Wang Xiao chuckled proudly, then revealed a puzzled expression. “However, it’s quite strange. The number of mutated beasts in this secret realm far exceeds the norm, but their strength is generally not high. Why did the military seal this place?”
“Now that you mention it, it does seem quite strange.”
Zhou Xiruo also revealed a puzzled expression when she heard this. She pointed at the fortifications on the wall and said, “The mutated beasts you attracted have basically all been dealt with by the [Flame Magic Tower]. We didn’t even use the arrow tower. They seem to be a little too weak.”
“Could it be that there are still mutated beasts we didn’t discover here?”
Wang Xiao suddenly had an idea, but on second thought, he felt that it was impossible.
When he went out to scout previously, although he had not completely explored this secret realm, he had definitely explored 80%.
As a beast tamer lord, Wang Xiao was very sensitive to the aura of powerful mutated beasts. If there was really a powerful mutated beast hidden somewhere, it was impossible for him not to notice it.
After thinking for a while and having no clue, Wang Xiao took out the secret realm key and looked at Zhou Xiruo. “Don’t think about it for now. It’s about time. Let’s go back early. We might be able to explore another small secret realm.”
“Alright!”
Zhou Xiruo nodded in agreement without thinking. After tasting the sweetness of this sealed secret realm, she did not think about whether there was any danger.
However, just as Zhou Xiruo took out the secret realm key and was about to crush it, there was suddenly a muffled sound. The [Flame Magic Tower] actually took the initiative to launch a fireball attack!
“Something’s wrong!”
The two of them looked at each other and immediately climbed onto the wall. However, after seeing the situation outside, they relaxed at the same time.
At some point, the Silver Shadow Leopard had appeared again and was looking at them from a few hundred meters away..
