My beast can't be a demon.

"There is actually a quasi-god in a C-level secret realm?" Zhou Lu was a little surprised when he heard Xiao Xi's words.

Xiao Xi did not answer the question, but looked at the time and confirmed to Zhou Lu: "Are you really sure you want to go to the Thunder Mountain Secret Realm? Even if you know there is a quasi-god inside."

Zhou Lu didn't know why Xiao Xi asked this question, but he immediately nodded affirmatively.

"Then go to the Explorers Association quickly." Xiao Xi flapped her wings and guided Zhou Lu outside, "We'll talk about the rest of the way."

Although Zhou Lu didn't know what Xiao Xi wanted to do, he decided to believe Xiao Xi.

So he asked Hanabi to pack his luggage at home quickly, and when he was about to enter the secret realm, he could directly take back Hanabi in the dormitory through the beast control card to save time.

On the way, Xiao Xi said: "The upper limit of the energy level of the secret realm is not locked. The so-called level of the secret realm is just a human assessment of the degree of danger."

"It's just like how humans distinguish spiritual beasts. Assistance, combat, entertainment, and food are all classified according to human standards and are not attributes of the spiritual beasts themselves."

"As long as there is a second-level spiritual beast in the C-level secret realm, it is possible for it to evolve to third-level."

"Since we have evolved to the third level, isn't it normal to evolve to a quasi-god?"

"When a high-level spirit beast appears in a low-level secret realm, the first step is to try to capture or persuade it. If all else fails and the pioneer army's hunt fails, the level of the secret realm will be raised to the corresponding danger level of the spirit beast."

A C-level secret realm generally means that there are at most second-level spiritual beasts haunting it.

B-level secret realm corresponds to the third level, and A-level secret realm corresponds to the fourth and fifth levels.

"Generally, in this case, the official will temporarily raise the level of the Thunder Mountain Secret Realm." Xiao Xi shook her head and said, "If those beast masters fail to capture it, it is very likely that the danger level of the secret realm will be raised permanently. At that time, your C-level exploration certificate will be not going."

Zhou Lu was shocked and immediately recalled in his mind the relevant information about the Thunder Bird that he had memorized when he memorized the illustrated book.

Big Thunderbird, the fourth-level form of Thunderbird.

By flapping its wings, it can summon large thunderclouds.

As a quasi-spiritual beast, its attributes are not actually top-notch among all gods.

But no matter how weak he is, he is still a quasi-god, and cannot be touched by ordinary spiritual beasts.

It is precisely because it belongs to a relatively weak category of quasi-gods that many beast masters have shown their covetousness towards it.

In order to prevent some mindless beast masters from provoking quasi-gods without knowing their own strength, and then losing their lives for no reason, the official will usually temporarily increase the level of the secret realm in this case. .

"Since it has been temporarily raised, we can't get in now if we go to the Explorers Association?" Zhou Lu followed Xiao Xi and ran towards the Explorers Association, "I only have a C-level exploration certificate."

Xiao Xi said without looking back: "The official needs to confirm that the information is correct before temporarily raising the level of the secret realm. There is a time lag. Well-informed beast masters can enter the secret realm before the increase."

"As soon as you enter the secret realm, the official can only persuade you to leave, but cannot force you to leave."

Countless news reaches the real world every day from the secret realm, including sighting reports of various powerful spiritual beasts.

If there are such rumors, the official can increase the level of the secret realm, which will definitely be a laborious matter, and will also cause public resentment.

Therefore, officials generally need to verify the information as quickly as possible and only issue instructions after confirming it is accurate.

No matter how fast the verification is, it still takes time.

Well-informed people can take advantage of this time difference to exploit loopholes.

It's as if many rumors are spread by taking advantage of the time lag when officials need time to confirm information before making announcements.

There is no doubt that the general fairy is one of the most well-informed people. When she told Zhou Lu about this matter, it had only been twenty minutes since the rumors about the sighting of the Great Thunder Bird appeared.

It was precisely because the time was so close that she suspected that Zhou Lu went to the Leishan Secret Realm for the Great Thunder Bird.

When Zhou Lu came to the Explorers Association, the place had not yet received orders from above, and relevant rumors had not spread at all.

He took out the Explorers Association and quickly went through the procedures to enter the secret realm.

Then, when the staff confirmed the beast card, he took out the beast card and recalled Hanabi who was still packing her luggage in the dormitory.

Confirm it is correct and enter the secret realm.

Zhou Lu turned around and thanked Xiao Xi: "Thank you very much."

Xiao Xi crossed her shoulders and said arrogantly: "You have paid, this is a free service."

With the flash of teleported light, Zhou Lu's figure disappeared into the hall of the Explorers Association.

Xiao Xi looked at the place where Zhou Lu disappeared, touched her chin and fell into deep thought.

Even in a modern society with advanced information, except for archaeologists, few people would pay attention to such an extremely unpopular spiritual beast, such as the Nine Difficulties Candle Dragon.

Why did Zhou Lu suddenly ask him for information about the Nine Difficulties Candle Dragon?

The key is that he also paid goblin coins.

This also means that the information about Nine Difficulties Candle Dragon is very important to him.

Is information about spiritual beasts that have been confirmed to be extinct of any value to beast masters?

She knew the evolution route of Hanabi, and it did not include any information about the Nine Difficulties Candle Dragon.

The only explanation is that Zhou Lu may have the information that Jiu Nan Zhulong is still alive, and it is very likely that it is Jiu Nan Zhulong's egg.

This also explains his behavior.

Having been promoted to a second-level beast master, he can now contract a second spiritual pet.

He was evaluating the possibility of contracting the Nine Difficulties Candle Dragon as his second favorite, so he paid precious fairy coins in exchange for relevant information.

However, given Zhou Lu's current situation, where could he get such information?

Wu Xiaoqing?

It's unlikely that she's interested in any of this.

Zhou Minghai’s suicide note?

But during the investigation, the nursing team had already investigated all relevant clues, and there was no suicide note at all.

…

…

Ouyang Xiao?

A drop of cold sweat flowed from Xiao Xi's forehead.

If Zhou Lu really comes into contact with Ouyang Xiao, then he will have to be more polite to him in the future.

Ouyang Xiao would not show mercy to him just because he was a knowledgeable fairy.

This is a lunatic who wrote a love letter to his mother!

If a human being pursues a tree, just call him crazy or not!

Of course, almost everyone knows that the ultimate goal of Ouyang Xiao's crazy behavior is to collect Daomu branches for research.

If he were an ordinary person, he would have died countless times by doing this.

But who knows that Ouyang Xiao is a research genius in the field of cloning and resurrection of ancient spiritual beasts.

Someone at the top of the human race protects him.

Xiao Xi was thinking wildly when the Explorer Association's phone rang.

Shortly after the staff connected the phone, they closed the secret door to the Leishan Secret Realm.

According to the order from above.

C0016 Thunder Mountain Secret Realm has been temporarily upgraded to an A-level secret realm. Only beast masters holding an A-level exploration certificate or above can enter.

It had only been three minutes since Zhou Lu entered the secret realm.
