Chapter 149 - 127: Young Man, Want to Skip a Few Decades of Struggle?
Chapter 149: Chapter 127: Young Man, Want to Skip a Few Decades of Struggle?
Fang Xiu looked at the five people not far away.
Their strength was pretty good.
And the Summoned Beasts they had brought out were also decent.
But Fang Xiu had a feeling.
That they definitely couldn’t defeat this Mutated Cyan Nether Flame Iron Fox.
Even with their Level 45 and Level 47 strength.
This Mutated Demon Beast was Level 50!
And it was a Mutation, on top of that.
How were these five people supposed to kill it?
Just them and their few Summoned Beasts?
It wasn’t nearly enough!
"Theoretically, there shouldn’t be any problem."
At this moment, Ye Fan nodded slightly.
’If it were someone weak going to help, I probably wouldn’t say a thing.’
"But, why do you want to help them?"
Ye Fan asked, a little confused. "This is a Mutated Demon Beast. If you wanted to form a contract with it, you could."
"Mm, I know. But if they can offer me something I want in exchange, I don’t mind helping them out."
Fang Xiu said with a faint smile.
The five people looked to be in their thirties.
They didn’t seem old.
Fang Xiu could certainly help them out.
Of course, only if they could give Fang Xiu what he wanted.
"So what’s your plan, Brother Fang?"
Ye Fan nodded slightly.
Since Fang Xiu had his own ideas, Ye Fan wouldn’t ask any more questions.
"No rush. We’ll show up after they’ve been defeated."
Fang Xiu nodded slightly.
He looked at one of the five people, a strange smile on his face.
And at that moment, the battle between the five people and the Mutated Demon Beast, the Cyan Nether Flame Iron Fox, began.
The group’s Demon Beasts charged directly at the Cyan Nether Flame Iron Fox.
That’s how it was for Beast Tamers.
Their strength was entirely dependent on the strength of their Guardian Beasts.
If their Guardian Beasts weren’t strong enough, the Beast Tamers themselves would be in extreme danger.
"ROAR!"
The Cyan Nether Flame Iron Fox let out a sudden roar.
After hearing this roar, the eyes of half of the Demon Beasts summoned by the Beast Tamers turned red.
"Damn it, is this... a Charm Skill? This Mutated Demon Beast... what the hell is it? My Guardian Beast is being controlled, I’m losing control of it!"
one of them shouted anxiously.
"M-mine too!"
Another Beast Tamer yelled, "Both of my Guardian Beasts have been Charmed!"
"Damn it!"
The leader hadn’t expected this either.
Just one exchange, and several of their Demon Beasts were already under the enemy’s control.
’How are we supposed to fight like this?’
"Don’t panic! Recall the controlled Guardian Beasts immediately!"
the leader said hurriedly.
As he spoke, he recalled one of his own Demon Beasts as well.
Because that Demon Beast had also fallen out of his control.
Clearly, it had been overcome by the Charm.
BANG!
Just then, one person’s Guardian Beast slapped at a nearby Demon Beast.
It sent the other beast flying.
"What are you doing?!"
The owner of the Guardian Beast that was sent flying was furious.
He hadn’t expected to be attacked by his own side before even getting into a real fight with the Demon Beast.
"Heh heh heh!"
The person whose Guardian Beast had attacked laughed sinisterly, then directed his beast to attack someone else.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"My Guardian Beast!"
"Fuck, I’ll kill you!"
Suddenly, the group’s Guardian Beasts turned on each other.
And no one was paying attention to the Mutated Cyan Nether Flame Iron Fox anymore.
"Everyone, calm down!"
The lead man had also realized something was wrong.
He shouted loudly.
At once, the others quieted down.
Only the first person who had controlled his Guardian Beast to attack others remained still, watching them with a cold smirk.
"Boss, what the hell is going on?"
Back at the leader’s side,
a woman asked curiously.
’Fighting amongst ourselves for no reason?’
The Mutated Demon Beast had already wandered off into the distance.
"He was Charmed by the Demon Beast. Damn it, this Mutated Demon Beast even has a Charm Skill. That Skill was already powerful, but with this Mutation, it can even affect humans!"
The leader was clearly more experienced.
He looked at the Beast Tamer who had attacked first and spoke helplessly.
"So what do we do now?"
someone asked.
They were all comrades; they couldn’t just attack him!
"This..."
The leader didn’t know what to do either.
"Just knock him out."
Just then, a voice reached their ears.
"Yeah, knock him out..."
Someone was about to agree when he suddenly froze. Something about this situation was off.
"Who are you?"
The leader grew even more vigilant.
"If you won’t do it, I’ll do it for you."
Fang Xiu said, walking directly toward the man.
"ROAR!"
The Guardian Beast controlled by the Charmed Beast Tamer roared angrily in Fang Xiu’s direction.
Fang Xiu just smiled faintly.
Then, he threw a punch at the Demon Beast.
Just as the Demon Beast swiped down with its paw.
"Look out!"
The group of Beast Tamers finally noticed the young man.
They then saw him walk straight toward their controlled teammate not far away.
They had been teaming up for ten years.
They certainly knew how strong their teammate was.
’This boy is acting without asking any questions, which is a bit dangerous!’
"Go!"
The leader had no choice but to command his own Guardian Beast to block the attack for Fang Xiu.
But just then, they were shocked to see Fang Xiu throw a single punch.
BANG!
And their teammate’s Guardian Beast went flying.
"So... so strong!"
The leader was completely stunned.
His own Guardian Beast also froze in place.
"Is that... the Power System?"
someone asked curiously.
But no one answered him.
Whether it was the Power System or not, that was just too damn awesome.
He had taken down a Level 45 Beast Tamer’s Guardian Beast with a single punch.
Such incredible strength was rare.
Especially in a teenager like him.
They had never seen anything like it!
Then they saw Fang Xiu walk straight toward their teammate!
"Don’t kill him!"
Someone who had snapped out of the daze quickly shouted.
Fang Xiu ignored them and just kept walking toward the man.
Then, with a single punch, he knocked him unconscious.
"Phew!"
As the Beast Tamer collapsed, his Guardian Beast vanished as well.
Everyone let out a sigh of relief.
They didn’t want to fight their own teammate to the death.
"Thank you!"
The leader walked up to Fang Xiu to thank him.
"It’s nothing. You’re all Human Awakeners. When we’re out in the field, we should help each other when we can."
Fang Xiu smiled faintly.
’I was just worrying about how to find an opening. I didn’t expect one to appear so quickly. They had only just faced the Demon Beast, did nothing, and almost got team-wiped.’
"Brother, may I ask your name?"
the leader asked quickly. "My name is Jiang Xingzhou, a Level 57 Beast Tamer!"
"Fang Xiu."
Fang Xiu wasn’t too resistant to such things, nor did he have much to hide.
He answered directly.
"Fang Xiu? Why does that name sound a little familiar?"
Jiang Xingzhou looked at Fang Xiu, thought for a moment, but couldn’t place it.
Although the matter of Fang Xiu killing the Level 40 boss was already widely known,
a few days had passed since then.
The news had naturally died down a bit.
The hype had also cooled off.
Some people had seen it and then promptly forgot.
It was normal not to recall it immediately.
"Fang Xiu, regardless, thank you. If you ever need anything in the future, just come find me!"
Jiang Xingzhou thought for a moment, but still couldn’t remember.
So he just gave up thinking about it.
After all, Fang Xiu had just saved them, or at least prevented them from killing each other.
A friend like that was worth making.
"Mm, as it happens, there is something I need your help with right now."
Fang Xiu nodded slightly.
Hearing this, Jiang Xingzhou was taken aback. "You want the Mutated Demon Beast?"
After all, it was a Mutated Demon Beast.
Even ordinary people could form a contract with it.
And since they had just met, he shouldn’t know if they had anything valuable.
So his target was clear: the Mutated Demon Beast.
"This Mutated Demon Beast is very precious, but you also know I’m a Beast Tamer. If possible... could I give you something of equal value... no, something of greater value than a Level 50 Mutated Demon Beast, to trade for it?"
Jiang Xingzhou hesitated.
In the hands of a regular Awakened, a Mutated Demon Beast wasn’t that great.
But in the hands of a Beast Tamer, it could display incredible combat power!
"I’m not that interested in the Mutated Cyan Nether Flame Iron Fox."
Fang Xiu shook his head and said.
"That was a Mutated Cyan Nether Flame Iron Fox?"
Jiang Xingzhou was also surprised.
’The Demon that could Charm was just a Cyan Nether Flame Iron Fox? But how could the Mutation on this one be so different?’
"Mm. If you’re willing, I’ll help you capture the Mutated Cyan Nether Flame Iron Fox in exchange for something."
Fang Xiu nodded and then said.
Jiang Xingzhou was stunned. He didn’t doubt Fang Xiu’s strength, but he asked curiously, "What do you want?"
"I want her!"
Fang Xiu said, pointing to the only female Beast Tamer in the distance.
"Impossible!"
Before Fang Xiu could even finish, Jiang Xingzhou immediately refused. "I can give you anything else, but if you’re thinking of taking one of my people, that’s impossible!"
"I..."
Fang Xiu began, feeling a bit speechless.
"No matter what, I will never trade my team member with you."
Jiang Xingzhou said angrily.
He felt that Fang Xiu was just trying to take advantage of them!
"I don’t want her, I want her stockings!"
Fang Xiu said calmly, looking at the woman before them.
Hearing this, everyone present,
including Ye Fan, who had been following Fang Xiu the whole time, was frozen in place.
’He wants what?’
’Stockings?’
’Holy crap, what is going on?’
’He wants the stockings of a woman in her thirties?’
’Kid, you’re really asking for trouble!’
’Trying to take a shortcut and skip a few decades of work?’
