Unorthodox Beast Control

Chapter 32 What is that? !

Jumping down from behind the Armored Rhinoceros, Liu Gu stretched, with a relaxed smile on his face, "Little boss, what kind of resources do you want to collect?"

"This kind." Xu Ran picked off a ripe Azure Jade Fruit and gestured to everyone, "This is a necessary resource for the production of all pet food. Eating it directly can restore strength to a certain extent, but it tastes bad."

"How bad does it taste?" Liu Gu picked one casually and made a mark with his teeth. Then his face turned dark and he quickly turned his head and spat it out to the side.

"Hahaha, the little boss said it tastes bad but you still insist on trying it." Liu Xue covered her mouth and smiled, and the other team members shook their heads helplessly.

"Isn't this just out of curiosity?" Liu Gu scratched his head, "Little boss, you need to collect a hundred kilograms, right? Can we help you?"

"Okay." Xu Ran did not refuse Liu Gu's kindness.

"Uncle Liu, look, if the surface turns completely blue and the texture is translucent, it is the mature Azure Jade Fruit."

"Got it!" Liu Gu made a "no problem" gesture and got into the bushes to pick quickly.

"It's dangerous to stay outside the city for a second longer. Let's all help together and go back together as soon as possible after picking." Zhang Yun waved his hand and roped in other members to help. Even the pet beasts were not idle.

A ripe Azure Jade Fruit is about the size of a fist. With everyone's collective efforts, a full sack was quickly filled.

"Almost a hundred pounds." Liu Gu tied the mouth of the sack, weighed it and nodded slightly, "Little boss, is this enough?"

"enough."

After taking a look at Novice Task 3, it was determined that it met the requirements. All he had to do was bring the hundred kilograms of Azure Jade Fruit back to the store to complete the task. Xu Ran nodded.

"In that case, let's go back to the city as soon as possible." Zhang Yun looked around with a slightly serious expression, "I'm afraid something will happen if we stay outside the city for a long time."

"Captain, you are too cautious." Yan Fan said disapprovingly, "It has been less than an hour since we left the city, and we have not encountered an Extraordinary creature during this hour."

"It's precisely because I haven't encountered an Extraordinary creature that I feel something is wrong." Zhang Yun said in a deep voice, "Have you ever had the experience of being out of the city for an hour without encountering a hostile Extraordinary creature?"

"This..." Hearing what Zhang Yun said, Yan Fan couldn't help but shook his head, "It seems that this really doesn't exist."

"I also noticed what the captain said." Liu Xue looked puzzled, "Could it be that we have better luck today?"

"Don't take chances." Zhang Yun shook his head slightly, "When something goes wrong, there must be a monster. No matter what the reason is, there is no need for us to take risks."

Xu Ran, who heard the exchange between the three, subconsciously touched the lucky charm hidden in his collar.

The lucky charm is still shining, which is a symbol that it has not taken effect.

It seems that it wasn't his lucky charm that worked.

Is there really a problem?

His heart tightened slightly, and he couldn't help but become nervous because of Zhang Yun's analysis. He couldn't help but interject, "The resources have been collected, let's go back quickly."

As the employer, Xu Ran said so. Without further ado, they carefully tied the sack filled with Azure Jade Fruit to the armored rhinoceros' carapace and quickly jumped on its back.

"Let's go!" Du Heng said softly, and the armored rhinoceros let out a low roar, stepped out with four strong and powerful thighs, trampled on the ground, and with a "boom" sound, quickly returned along the way it came. .

"After we return to the city, we need to take a good rest for a few days." Liu Gu stretched and smiled at Xu Ran, "Actually, we planned to take a rest after finishing the job yesterday. You have a commission, little boss, so Let’s go out of town again.”

"So little boss, if you have similar commissions in the future, remember to give priority to our Tiger Hunting Team~" Liu Xue looked at Xu Ran with a smile.

"Okay, if there is a need." Xu Ran nodded.

It was quite pleasant to get along with the members of the Tiger Hunting Team, and I became familiar with them after going back and forth. If there is really a need for employment in the future, looking for them will naturally be the best choice.

The atmosphere on the way back was relatively relaxed, and the people sitting on the armored rhinoceros started chatting.

"boom!"

The sudden decrease in speed of the Armored Rhino brought the chatter of several people to an abrupt end.

It turned its head and looked around in confusion, looking full of uneasiness.

"Du Heng, what's wrong?" Zhang Yun was stunned for a moment, then quickly turned to look at Du Heng.

"The Armored Rhino noticed a strange earthquake in the earth." Du Heng stroked the Armored Rhino's big head to comfort him and communicated with it. He quickly said, "This strange vibration makes it a little uneasy."

"Strange vibration?" Du Heng frowned slightly.

As an earth-type beast, the Steel-Armored Rhinoceros is more sensitive to the vibrations of the earth. The vibrations that can make it feel uneasy are probably not trivial.

Thinking of the ominous premonition he had after leaving the city, Du Heng quickly stood up on the back of the Armored Rhino and looked towards the direction of Azure State City.

From their current location, they could already vaguely see the towering walls of Azure State City.

"Let him be patient for a while. We still have a quarter of an hour to reach the city gate." Zhang Yun patted Du Heng on the shoulder. Just as he was about to say something else, Yan Fan's exclamation suddenly came from the side, "what is that?!"

Zhang Yun turned his head suddenly, and other team members and Xu Ran also followed Yan Fan's line of sight and looked into the distance.

On the other side of the distant wilderness, something seemed to be surging.

At first, only some billowing smoke and dust could be vaguely seen, but in just a few breaths, everyone saw Extraordinary creatures of different shapes hidden in the smoke and dust.

Not only on the ground, but also in the sky, there are many ferocious Extraordinary creatures circling and flying.

As if they had received instructions, these Extraordinary creatures rushed towards Azure State City with a terrifying momentum.

"It's...a tide of beasts!" Zhang Yun's pupils suddenly shrank, and a look of paleness and horror appeared on his face.

Upon hearing these two words, the expressions of the other four people also became extremely frightened.

This killing mode of stacking numbers is the most powerful weapon used by Extraordinary creatures to attack human cities.

Even with tall and solid city walls, humans still pay an unimaginable price every time they face a tide of beasts.

"Turn around and run out of the city!" Zhang Yun's face became more solemn than ever before, and his voice became hoarse. "This time we are in big trouble."

"Can't we rush to Azure State City?" Xu Ran said anxiously, "With the speed of the Armored Rhino, we should be able to reach the city gate in time before the beast wave arrives, right?"

"You can't get in." Liu Gu said in a deep voice, "The beast master in charge of the city defense must have seen the movement of the beast tide. The city gate has been locked at this moment."

"Between opening the city gate to save us and causing the beast tide to hit the city gate and causing a devastating blow, or closing the city gate tightly, the beast masters of the city defense will only choose the latter."
