435 Dire Beast in the Night (2)
“Let’s discuss this properly.”
“Right?”
In the end, he said this to Da Niu.
Da Niu, who had escaped death, looked at that person with red eyes.
Under the light of the fire, it looked a little dignified and imposing.
It seemed that this person was the legendary leader of the Black Shadow Mercenary Group.
This was a figure that Da Niu usually could not come into contact with.
The reason why he could get to know Brother Dao was because he had a few loyal subordinates under him. Moreover, he was willing to risk his life and had a ruthless aura.
“Yes, yes, yes!”
“You, you’re right!”
“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely return the money!”
Looking at Da Niu’s anxious appearance, the team leader smiled and shook his head.
“I don’t need you to pay me back.”
“How about we make a deal?”
“Bring your men and accompany me to the forest. After this matter is settled, you can go wherever you want. Then, the debt between us will be written off. How about that?”
Hearing the content of this transaction, Da Niu hesitated for a moment before finally nodding.
He owed a lot of money.
He had to have five level three crystal cores.
To a small mercenary like him who had just reached level three and had very ordinary abilities, it was a huge sum of money.
If he could get rid of this debt, he would definitely be happy.
However… would this trip be so easy?
Da Niu turned to look at the black Beast Taming Forest.
It was said that there were many good things inside, but beasts were also extremely dangerous.
If he really entered, would he be able to come out alive?
However, it did not seem like he could decide this now.
If he did not enter, he would die immediately.
If he went in, there was a high chance that he would die, but what if?
What if he survived?
“I… I promise you.”
“But… but my lackeys are not here. I asked them to go back just now. I… I was also preparing to go back.”
Da Niu lied slightly.
After all, it was almost certain death this time.
He did not want to implicate his lackeys.
He was stupid to begin with and his strength was not good. He would probably not be able to survive after entering.
“Alright ~”
The team leader did not make things difficult for Da Niu. Instead, he looked around.
He said loudly,
“Everyone, I’ll temporarily issue a mission.”
“I’m the leader of the Black Shadow Mercenary Group, Xu Mo. I need the help of a few beast-type mutants now.”
“Reward… three level three crystal cores. Will pay one level two crystal core in advance as a deposit.”
Hearing Xu Mo’s words, many mercenaries who had just been watching the show were immediately interested.
Level three crystal cores, and three of them at that. That was not a small number.
Moreover, there was a down payment.
“Me! Commander Xu, count me in!”
“Return it to me!”
With a huge sum of money, Xu Mo quickly recruited a total of seven level four beast-type mutants. Moreover, they were all strong mercenaries.
For money, many people were willing to take the risk.
Moreover, didn’t they still have the Beast Taming Index?
Seeing that the situation was not good, they could just run!
Xu Mo, on the other hand, was satisfied as he led the nearly twenty people into the Beast Taming Forest.
It couldn’t be helped. Although their mercenary group had many experts, there were only about ten of them with level three beasts.
For the sake of safety, it was better to find more cannon fodder.
Moreover, he did not expect these cannon fodder to do anything.
With the existence of the index, it was not good for him to let these people die.
Of course, it was not that Xu Mo had never thought of confiscating the Beast Taming Index.
However, it was obvious that this was impossible.
Therefore, he might as well use a level two crystal core to send them away.
As for the last three level three crystal cores…
After Xu Mo brought people into the Beast Taming Forest, the people on the grassland discovered that another group of powerful mercenaries had arrived at the spatial door.
Moreover, their destination seemed to be the same forest.
When Da Niu’s three lackeys saw this scene, they directly despaired.
“Brother Niu… Brother Niu is as good as dead! How can he survive?”
“Yes, yes ~ Didn’t more than 60 people enter just now? Three mercenary groups! Moreover, they’re all famous in Jiangzhou City.”
“Are we going back?”
“No, let’s wait and see…”
—————————————————-
In the Beast Taming Forest, as the only person in the team who had his Beast Taming Index taken away, Da Niu was walking at the back of the team as a backup.
A vast group of people walked in the forest. Moreover, there were many torches that illuminated the surroundings of the forest.
However, it did not make Da Niu feel safe at all.
He had a feeling that in the dark center of the depths of the forest, ferocious beasts would rush out and eat him.
“How much longer?”
Xu Mo walked on the road and asked the only water-type mutant in the team who had been to the forest elf.
The mutant looked at the map and said helplessly,
“Big Brother, if we walk, it might take three to four hours.”
“That’s even if we go at full speed.”
When Xu Mo heard this answer, he was slightly dissatisfied.
However, there was nothing he could do now.
After all, they did not have transportation.
As for the method Lin Ye had used previously, it was even more useless.
“Increase the speed.”
“Alright!”
As soon as he gave the order, Xu Mo discovered that the surrounding torches suddenly moved without any wind.
Seeing this scene, Xu Mo suddenly raised his right hand.
“Stop!”
Brother Dao looked at Xu Mo’s gesture and whispered,
“Boss, what’s wrong?”
Xu Mo looked around and felt his heart palpitate, but he did not discover anything. He could only instruct,
“Be careful. Something might happen.”
As soon as Xu Mo finished speaking, a violent wind suddenly attacked.
The torches in the crowd suddenly extinguished.
“Be on guard!”
As soon as Brother Dao finished speaking, a huge black shadow silently appeared above their heads.
The Qiong Qi looked at the two-legged beasts in the forest below that looked the same as the ones who had stolen its child, and the bloodthirst in its eyes became even stronger.
During this period of time, it had been wandering in the forest.
There were a few times when he wanted to rush out of the forest to search outside.
However, every time it wanted to go out, there was an inexplicable fear in its bloodline that drove it back.
Therefore, it could only swim around the forest.
Originally, the Qiong Qi, who had not gained anything for a few days, thought that there would not be any two-legged beasts in the forest.
He did not expect to make a new discovery when he wandered here for the third time tonight.
Sensing the sudden violent wind, Xu Mo tightened the Beast Taming Index in his hand and had already placed his hand on the button of the Index.
“Everyone, don’t be anxious. Take out the lighting equipment. The reconnaissance team will use their mutants to take a look at the surrounding situation.
For the sake of those forest elves, Xu Mo had made a lot of preparations before coming.
Following his instructions, four very dazzling crystal core lamps were immediately lit, directly illuminating the forest within a hundred meters.
However… he did not see any signs of beasts.
This undoubtedly made many people feel relieved.
Someone directly put down his hand from the Beast Taming Index.
As for the mercenaries of the Black Shadow Mercenary Group who had entered the Beast Taming World for the first time, not many of them had the intention to escape with the Beast Taming Index.
“Investigation team…”
“Up, up! Team Leader, above you, up!”
Xu Mo was about to ask about the investigation team when a perceptual-type mercenary sat on the ground and pointed above the forest with trembling hands.
Xu Mo looked up when he heard this—
Swish ~
After an inconspicuous sonic boom, Xu Mo saw the mercenaries and his subordinates in front of him who had been called over as cannon fodder directly cut in half.
Then, a wind blade directly entered the ground from his feet.
If not for the fact that he had just stopped slightly,
This would directly take his life.
“Run!”
Xu Mo had just raised his hand and was about to press the Beast Taming Index when a violent wind more than ten times larger than before exploded in the crowd.
Before they could do anything, the remaining group was blown into pieces.
