The beast starts from zero

The beeping sounded for a few seconds, and then the other end picked up the phone. A mature male voice asked:

"Which one?"

"Hello, I have accepted the assessment mission, which is to enter the secret realm and bring back the missing Liu Bo. I saw the information here that you entered the secret realm with him in a team. I wonder if you can go into the secret realm with me again, go to the place where he disappeared at that time, and help find him." Qiao Sang went straight to the point.

The person on the other end of the phone hesitated for a moment: "What level of beastmaster are you?"

Qiao Sang said: "C-level."

"No." Hearing this answer, Qu Yang refused without thinking: "I was injured last time I entered the secret realm, and I'm still recovering."

What a joke, a C-level beastmaster, he himself is a C-level beastmaster, but he didn’t even notice when his companions disappeared in the secret realm.

You asked about my level before you said you were injured. Could it be that you don't want to go because you think my level is too low? Qiao Sang complained in his heart and said, "I have a pet that has healing skills. It can help you heal."

"No need." Qu Yang refused: "I have completed the treatment and am now recuperating."

After a pause, he added: "Although I can't go into the secret realm with you, I can tell you the scene at that time."

Qiao Sang did not force it: "Okay, you say."

Qu Yang recalled the scene at that time and said in a deep voice:

"After entering the secret realm, we headed southwest. On the third day in the secret realm, we found a pond and spent the night next to it. Liu Bo was the one guarding that night. When we woke up the next day, he was gone."

"Later we searched the area and only found his remaining distress signal about one kilometer away."

Watching the night, disappearing, it seems like the disappearance in the post... Qiao Sang pondered for a moment and asked:

"Didn't you hear anything during the night?"

"No." Qu Yang said, "We didn't hear anything."

  Without waiting for Qiao Sang to speak, he expressed his guess in a serious tone:

"Actually, this is not normal. We have been on high alert in the secret realm and our sleep is very light. My pet was also outside at the time. It is an eared cat that can hear the slightest movement five kilometers away and will wake up at the slightest noise. But that night it heard nothing and slept very deeply."

There is no doubt that the wild pet used hypnosis skills... Qiao Sang thought.

"There's one thing I can't figure out." Qu Yang continued, "Why didn't the wild pets attack us and only took Liu Bo away?"

Qiao Sang asked, "Were you in the tent at the time?"

Qu Yang was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect the other party to ask this question. He said with a slightly puzzled tone:

"Of course not. There are so many wild pets in the secret realm. When you open your eyes in the tent, you can't see the surrounding scene at first glance. You can't respond to sudden attacks immediately. It's very dangerous. Have you never been to the secret realm?"

That shouldn't be the case. The other party accepted an assessment mission, which means he has to participate in the regional competition. How could a beastmaster who wants to participate in the regional competition have never entered the secret realm?

I have never been to a secret realm before... Qiao Sang said, "I understand. Thank you for telling me so much."

Qu Yang instantly forgot about the tent and said in a deep voice: "I also hope you can find Liu Bo."

Although there is little hope.

How could someone who had disappeared in the secret realm for a week still be safe and sound...

"I will." said Qiao Sang.

Qu Yang didn't say anything more and hung up the phone.

Qiao Sang then dialed another person's number.

With just a beep, the call was picked up.

"Who?" A lifeless voice came from the loudspeaker.

"Hello, I have accepted the assessment task for the regional competition..." Qiao Sang briefly explained his situation and said, "I wonder if you can accompany me to Secret Realm No. 88 to find Liu Bo together."

"You should find another person named Qu Yang." Yuan Jie said in a steady tone, "He is a friend of Liu Bo. I just teamed up with them to enter the secret realm."

Qiao Sang was silent for a moment: "You sound a little listless, are you sick?"

Yuan Jiewen was also somewhat silent about the sudden concern: "I was injured last time I entered the secret realm."

"My pet has healing skills and can help you heal." Qiao Sang said.

Yuan Jiewen sneered: "You heal me, and then I accompany you to the secret realm to get hurt again?"

Qiao Sang said: "The healing skill of my pet club is Healing Light."

"I don't care whether you have the healing light or the healing heart. In short, I will not accompany you to the secret realm." Yuan Jiewen said impatiently.

Qiao Sang said calmly: "You can check this skill."

Just from the man's disdainful tone, she knew that he had absolutely no understanding of the healing light.

No one would refuse a ray of healing light, even if they do not have any major illness for the time being.

"What's there to check? I've already told you I won't..." The voice on the other end of the phone suddenly changed in quality, and the sound of someone pressing a phone screen could be faintly heard.

Qiao Sang immediately realized that this person had just turned on the loudspeaker and was searching for the light of healing. He thought that he was quite hypocritical...

Suddenly, there was silence on the other end of the phone.

Then, the sound of rapid breathing came from the loudspeaker, followed by the sound of someone standing up suddenly and something being knocked over.

After a few seconds, the man asked cautiously with anticipation, "Is it the healing light of the super-level skill?"

As expected, no one could refuse... Qiao Sang smiled and said, "There is only one skill called Healing Light."

"I'll go!" Yuan Jiewen suppressed his ecstasy and said impatiently: "You tell me a time, and I will definitely be there on time! I am willing to help you complete the assessment task!"

You've used them all... Qiao Sang's mouth twitched, and he said, "Thank you. See you at the entrance of Secret Realm No. 88 at o'clock tomorrow afternoon."

"Roger that!"

After ending the call, Qiao Sang continued to make plans for the journey to Secret Realm No. 88.

I went with someone, so the terrain shouldn't be a problem. After all, he'd been there once...

Steel Treasure can survey, it has the power of bondage, if there is any situation, it can communicate directly without coming back...

If you encounter danger, Xiao Xunbao can directly use space to move...

Yabao is the main target.

Lu Bao was in charge of the treatment. It was better not to use the Ice Sky Domain unless it was absolutely necessary, otherwise most of the energy in the body would be gone. Even if he drank the energy recovery liquid, it would take some time to recover. It was not safe in a place like the secret realm...

Exploration, escape methods, attack, treatment, and supplies are all stored in the small treasure hunting ring. I have everything.

Moreover, the level of Secret Realm No. 88 is C-level. The highest level of wild pets in this level of secret realm is King-level, and there are only one or two at most. Even if she is unlucky enough to encounter one, Xiao Xunbao can take her away...

At the moment, it seems that I no longer need to find other people to form a team...

As I was thinking about it, my phone vibrated.

  Qiao Sang picked it up and saw that it was a message from Michaela:

[Although I can't accompany you to the secret realm, I suggest you find someone to team up with. ]

Qiao Sang replied:

[I have found him. He is one of the members of the team that the missing person formed last time to enter the secret realm. With him, I should be able to quickly find the location where the missing person disappeared.]

  After this message was sent, Michaela took three minutes to reply:

[It's not safe enough. I suggest you find at least one more beastmaster to go in with you.]

Qiao Sang: [I think I can gain some experience, but if there are too many people, the effect may not be so good. ]

Mikaela: [You are not familiar with the secret realm, and this is your first time entering it. It would be better for you to find an experienced person to team up with.]

Qiao Sang: [The guy who teamed up with the missing person last time, he has been in there before, so he should be familiar with the secret realm and have experience.]

Michaela: “…”

This child, why is he so stubborn?

Mikaela: [Have you decided when to enter the secret realm? ] Qiao Sang: [Yes, tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock. ]

……

the next day.

1:50 p.m.

Jinwu Mountain.

A thin mist shrouded the mountaintops.

Some people go up the mountain, some people go down the mountain.

Those who went up the mountain were full of fighting spirit, while most of those who went down the mountain sighed, and some were in tattered clothes and needed to be carried by their pets.

From high in the sky, a mysterious pet with flaming wings ran down. When it was five meters close to the ground, a huge airflow suddenly swept in all directions.

The eyes of the people around were focused on this pet that looked very powerful at first glance.

Qiao Sang rolled off Ya Bao.

  Immediately, a middle-aged man in black came forward and smiled:

"Excuse me, do you want to enter the secret realm?"

Although the girl in front of him didn't look like an adult, the pet beside her was obviously not something that an ordinary beastmaster could contract.

With his rich social experience, he could conclude that this girl had an extraordinary background and that someone had definitely escorted her into the secret realm for training.

Some children from big families are like this. Obviously, their own strength is not enough to enter the secret realm for training, but they still want to go in for training, and then they are followed by a group of powerful beast masters.

Qiao Sang hummed and glanced at the flyer in his hand.

The middle-aged man enthusiastically handed over the flyer in his hand: "We have a team in this secret realm. If you encounter anything in the secret realm, you can contact us."

"Whether it's driving away wild pets, replenishing supplies, or treating injuries, we can do it. If the problem is not solved, we guarantee that there will be no charge."

There is such a business in the secret realm. This is a good way to make money... Qiao Sang reached out to take the flyer, glanced down, and then was stunned.

A bottle of C-level energy recovery agent costs 30 Alliance Coins, a treatment costs 50 Alliance Coins, and driving away less than ten intermediate pets costs 20 Alliance Coins. More will be charged separately.

This, isn't this robbery!

Qiao Sang quickly returned the flyer: "I'm not interested."

After saying that, he turned around and left with Yabao.

The middle-aged man sighed, it turned out that doing business with rich people was not that easy.

Qiao Sang came to the passage to the secret realm.

The entrance to the elliptical passage is dozens of meters high, and transparent ripples are spreading in circles, making it impossible to see the world on the other side.

Mysterious and terrifying.

This is the entrance to the secret realm... Qiao Sang took out his cell phone and took a picture to record it, then prepared to contact Yuan Jiewen to ask him if he had arrived.

At this time, a slightly hoarse voice sounded beside him: "Excuse me, do you want to enter the secret realm?"

Qiao Sang turned his head and looked in the direction of the sound.

The person who was speaking was a woman who looked to be around 40 years old with sunken cheeks, small but sharp eyes, and prominent brow bones.

She suddenly thought of something and looked at the position of the other person's hand. She thought to herself that he was not handing out flyers...

Qiao Sang said "hmm" and asked, "What's the matter?"

The woman showed joy on her face and asked, "Can I team up with you to enter the secret realm?"

Qiao Sang shook his head without even thinking: "No, I have my own things to do when I go in."

"I won't delay your work." The woman said, "I just want to go in and pick some ingredients for the potion. I'll take you wherever you go."

As she spoke, she sighed:

"I had already found someone to form a team with, but I didn't expect that person to suddenly stand me up."

"No." Qiao Sang said coldly: "I really have my own things to do, and I can't protect you."

"How could you not protect me? Your pet looks so powerful." The woman said as she glanced at Yabao.

"Tooth!"

Yabao was stunned for a moment, then he straightened his chest and shouted, saying that you, as a human, have good vision.

Even if you praise me like that, I won’t take you in… Qiao Sang’s expression remained unchanged.

She would not forget her mission. One more person to protect meant one more danger. She would not do such a stupid thing.

  As the thought flashed through her mind, the woman spoke again:

"I can pay you."

  I am no longer the person I used to be. Although I no longer have an unlimited credit card, I still have a 10-digit balance in my bank card, stored supplies in the small treasure hunting circle, and those shares. The most important thing now is to complete the assessment task... Qiao Sang's heart moved, and then he quickly calmed down and refused for the third time:

"You should find someone else. I really have something to do."

After saying that, he picked up his phone and prepared to continue contacting Yuan Jiewen.

The woman was silent for a moment, then lowered her voice and said, "It's an S-level Ghost Tear."

"!!!"

Qiao Sang stopped what he was doing instantly and looked over with wide eyes.

Ghost Tear, one of the evolutionary materials for the next stage of Little Treasure Hunt.

  Just for helping a team enter a C-level secret realm, you're getting an S-level Ghost Tear as a reward? !

"Really?" Qiao Sang's expression changed several times, but he finally couldn't help but confirm.

"Really." The woman nodded and said, "I got this by accident, but I don't have a ghost-type pet contract, so I haven't used it."

Qiao Sang still had a conscience, so he struggled for a while and said:

"Wouldn't it be a waste to give S-level items as rewards just to form a team to enter a C-level secret realm?"

"No, Youlei is useless to me. I just exchange the unnecessary things for the necessary things." The woman smiled.

Qiao Sang was silent for a few seconds, then said seriously: "I will definitely protect your safety, but you have to listen to me and don't move around casually."

"Okay." The woman said with a grateful expression: "Thank you for your help."

Unexpectedly, Yabao's appearance brought her such a business... Qiao Sang picked up her phone and found that Yuan Jiewen had sent her a message:

[I'm here, where are you? ]

Qiao Sang raised his head and glanced around.

The information sent by the examiner included not only the information of the three people, but also their photos.

Soon, her eyes were fixed on a young man who was pale and looked a little weak.

"Yuan Jie, stay calm." Qiao Sang stepped forward and greeted him.

Yuan Jiewen heard someone calling his name. He looked in the direction of the voice and saw the girl who had just attracted everyone's attention. He hesitated and asked, "Who are you?"

"The person who invited you to form a team." Qiao Sang said.

Yuan Jiewen: "!!!"

"This is the companion who will team up with us next time." Qiao Sang looked at the woman and introduced her.

The woman smiled and said, "My name is Master Lin."

Yuan Jiewen looked dazed, and for a moment he couldn't digest that the big man in his heart had turned into a girl who was obviously underage.

  Qiao Sang looked at the time on his phone and said:

"It's getting late, and the team members are all here. Let's set off and enter the secret realm." (End of this chapter)
