Under the shocked gazes of the three of them, Li Tongfu’s headless corpse fell to the ground with a plop.
Tang Longji’s expression changed. “Be on guard!”
Before he could finish speaking, Wu Yan immediately ran towards the two of them. Tang Longji pulled Wang Xiao behind him and protected him as they retreated towards the base.
Along the way, the three of them quickly entered the base.
Tang Longji jumped onto the wall and looked at the corpse from afar. He spat and scolded angrily, “What kind of thing is this! You talk the loudest but die faster than anyone else! To think you call yourself an expert in healing? Pfft!”
“Senior Tang, this has nothing to do with the healing ability. The thing that ambushed us was very fast and no one could react in time. It can only be said that Senior Li is more unlucky.”
Wu Yan looked at Tang Longji on the wall and persuaded. He was indeed a top student of Blue Planet University. Even in that unexpected situation just now, he still looked indifferent, as if he was completely unaffected.
After persuading Tang Longji, Wu Yan looked at Wang Xiao, who had a complicated expression. “Your expression hasn’t been right since just now, but you don’t look frightened—do you know what that was just now?”
Wang Xiao did not expect Wu Yan’s eyes to be so sharp. He was stunned for a
moment before nodding. “I might know, but… but that’s impossible!”
“What’s impossible?”
As Tang Longji spoke, he jumped down from the wall and looked at Wang Xiao in confusion. “You saw that thing the last time you came?”
“Yes, that silver light just now was a mutated beast called the [Silver Shadow Leopard].”
Wang Xiao nodded, and his expression became even stranger. “But the last time I came, it was only at the peak of silver level three.”
Tang Longji immediately revealed a suspicious expression. “Are you sure?”
Wang Xiao had just nodded when Wu Yan said expressionlessly and coldly, “You’re lying. Senior Li is a level five lord. How can he be instantly killed by a silver-quality beast?”
“That’s why I said it’s impossible!”
Wang Xiao spread his hands helplessly. “When I first saw the Silver Shadow Leopard, it was only at the peak of silver level three. It had only been a few days. Even if it broke through, it would only be gold quality. How could it do such a thing?”
“If you want to instantly kill a level five lord, you have to at least be of platinum quality.”
Tang Longji said firmly. After thinking for a moment, he looked at Wang Xiao.
“Could it be that you remembered wrongly? Or is there more than one Silver
Shadow Leopard here?”
“Impossible!”
Wang Xiao shook his head without thinking. “My talent is [Beast Tamer Lord]. I’m very sensitive to the aura of mutated beasts, especially powerful mutated beasts.”
“The last time I came, there was no aura of any powerful mutated beasts here. However, as soon as I entered this time, I discovered a platinum-quality mutated beast. I just didn’t expect the other party to attack so quickly, that’s why it…”
Before he could finish speaking, Wang Xiao’s expression suddenly changed and he stopped.
The other two waited for a while but did not see anything below. Wu Yan could not help but ask, “So what’s wrong?”
“…it’s gone.”
A shocked expression appeared on Wang Xiao’s face. “The aura of that platinum mutated beast has disappeared!”
Wu Yan was stunned when he heard that. “The mutated beasts don’t have the secret realm key. How did it suddenly disappear?”
“Could it have been killed by other mutated beasts?”
Tang Longji probed. Before the two of them could speak, he shook his head again. “No, no. Someone who can kill a platinum mutated beast must also be a platinum mutated beast… Wang Xiao, did you make a mistake? Why don’t you sense it carefully?”
“Uncle Tang, I’m not mistaken! ”
Wang Xiao looked into Tang Longji’s eyes and said seriously, “There’s only one platinum-quality exotic beast here, but it suddenly disappeared just now!” Seeing Wang Xia’s anxious expression, the other two looked at each other.
Tang Longji asked, “Top student, what do you think?”
“Senior Tang, you can call me Little Wu or Wu Yan.”
Wu Yan nodded politely. After thinking for a moment, he said softly, “I’m more inclined to think that Wang Xiao made a mistake. ”
Wang Xiao was immediately speechless. Unfortunately, he did not have any tools to share his feelings. Otherwise, he would definitely let these two people verify it themselves!
Tang Longji pondered for a moment and was about to speak when suddenly, with a soft “Hut‘ sound, the [Flame Magic Tower] on the wall actually took the initiative to attack!
“Something’s wrong!”
The expressions of the three of them changed and they immediately climbed up the wall. They saw a silver leopard squatting in the grass about a hundred meters away and looking at them quietly.
“Uncle Tang! That’s the [Silver Shadow Leopard] I saw last time!”
Wang Xiao instantly recognized the mutated beast. After saying that, he waved at the Silver Shadow Leopard. “Heh! Little fellow! Do you still remember me?!”
The [Silver Shadow Leopard] tilted its head as if it was recalling something. Then, it stood up and slowly walked towards the base. However, just as it entered a hundred meters, the [Flame Magic Tower] fired again!
Hut.
A huge fireball tore through the air and almost instantly arrived 100 meters away. However, to the Silver Shadow Leopard that came and went like lightning, the speed of the fireball was still too slow.
After a silver light flashed, the Silver Shadow Leopard appeared in its previous position again. It tilted its head and sized up the three people on the city wall, as if nothing had happened just now.
The three of them looked at each other for a moment. Wang Xiao opened the interface and was about to close the [Flame Magic Tower] when he was stopped by Wu Yan beside him.
“No way.”
Wu Yan looked at the Silver Shadow Leopard warily and said coldly, ‘We still don’t know if it’s friend or foe. If we rashly turn off the defense, we might be ambushed.”
Wang Xiao looked at Wu Yan with a strange expression. “With its speed, if it really wants to attack us, can the [Flame Magic Tower] stop it?”
Wu Yan did not say anything, but he silently let go.
Wang Xiao closed the [Flame Magic Tower]. At the same time, the [Silver Shadow Leopard] seemed to have sensed something and stood up to walk towards the base again. In the end, it stopped about 30 meters away.
“It seems to want me to go over.”
As Wang Xiao spoke, he wanted to jump out of the base, but Tang Longji stopped him.
“Don’t be anxious.’
As Tang Longji spoke, he tore open a [Identification Scroll]. After checking it for a moment, he nodded. “It’s indeed silver level level three… Go. Remember to be careful.”
“Alright!”
Wang Xiao agreed and jumped off the wall. Soon, he arrived in front of the Silver Shadow Leopard.
Before Wang Xiao could speak, the [Silver Shadow Leopard] suddenly lay on the ground sideways. It raised its head slightly and looked at Wang Xiao, its throat even emitting a rumbling sound.
Seeing the Silver Shadow Leopard like this, Wang Xiao immediately could not help but laugh. “Little fellow, you haven’t even developed intelligence, but you still remember me?”
As Wang Xiao snoke. he sauatted down and reached out to scratch the Silver
Shadow Leopard]’s chin.
The Silver Shadow Leopard narrowed its eyes in satisfaction and raised its claws to gently hug Wang Xiao’s arm. The snoring in its throat became louder and louder, but Wang Xiao’s expression was ugly.
Under the furry feet of the Silver Shadow Leopard, there was actually a fresh scarlet blood stain!
