119: Is it possible to arrive at Wind City and contract the third Beastmaster in advance?
"Trust Chen Qiang. He has led teams for so many years and has never made a mistake. He basically completes tasks perfectly every time. Many Beast Tamer want to join but can't find a spot."
Zhang Songde looked at Fang Ran, thinking he seemed a bit reluctant.
"Yes, logically, we should also follow the arrangements of the strongest."
"Chen Qiang is a double Lord Beast Master, one late-stage, one mid-stage, and Zhang Songde is also double Lord-level!"
Several Beast Tamer said.
Their gazes towards the two were filled with admiration.
It wasn't easy to get on this trip; the contribution points are basically secured!
Among Lord Beast Masters, there are also distinctions in rank.
For example, double Lord-level Beast Tamer are much more sought after than ordinary Lord Beast Masters.
After all, with one more Lord-level Beast in combat, one person can be worth two, not to mention the cooperation between two Beasts that have grown together.
"Normal tasks are fine, but if they deliberately assign us dangerous tasks, that's definitely not acceptable," Fang Ran said.
"Haha, don't worry about that. You are considered the weaker members of the team, so you will naturally be protected first."
Zhang Songde laughed.
Chen Qiang, who was beside him, also nodded.
"Don't worry about this. If something happens to you, I'm afraid the Imperial Capital Academy will come knocking."
Since learning Fang Ran's identity, his attitude had improved considerably.
"The car is here, let's go. Brother Qiang has already paid the fare."
"Brother Qiang? If we're fighting bears this time, it's definitely a sure thing," Fang Ran muttered.
The group got into the heavy, metallic-feeling vehicles in batches.
"Originally, I wanted to rent a travel Beast, but there are too many of us, and renting two is too expensive."
Chen Qiang explained.
Some Beasts are particularly suitable for long journeys.
They are mostly herbivores, gentle in nature, and generally do not attack passengers.
However, their price is also very expensive, much more so than mechanically produced vehicles.
"Buzz!"
The vehicle started.
Fang Ran and Shen Yun sat by the window in the back row.
He could see the scenery outside the window and occasionally smell the faint, lingering fragrance beside him.
Closing his eyes slightly, Fang Ran's spirit entered the Beast Taming Space.
Xiao Tian was not practicing the Evolution Method.
Instead, she was reading several books.
A month ago, Xiao Tian had asked Fang Ran to help her redecorate the Beast Taming Space.
So Fang Ran helped her get tables, chairs, sofas, and a large number of books, as well as training equipment, and a soft, warm bed.
In a normal Beast Taming Space,
it certainly wouldn't be able to accommodate these things.
Fang Ran secretly crept behind her: "Overbearing Beast Tamer..."
Fang Ran hadn't finished reading the title.
Xiao Tian suddenly closed the book, her cheeks slightly red, and turned around with a touch of annoyance.
"No peeking!"
"Don't be angry, I just came to see Xiao Nian."
Fang Ran's gaze fell towards the center of the Beast Taming Space.
A ball of purple viscous liquid floated in mid-air.
"It should reach Lord-level by the time we get to Feng City."
Thinking this, Fang Ran sat down on Xiao Tian's bed without any hesitation and began practicing the Mental Forging Method.
His mental strength was now incredibly solid, much stronger than that of ordinary Beast Tamer.
"Perhaps, I can contract a third Beast without waiting for Xiao Tian to advance to Transcendent Grade."
Fang Ran speculated in his heart.
Several hours passed.
The vehicle arrived at Feng City.
"Please show your identification!" Several armed guards stopped the vehicle.
Fang Ran looked outside and saw that many of the guards looked very tired.
"Are there no Beast Tamer here? Why are they all ordinary people?"
One of the members said.
The other person scoffed at Fang Ran's words.
"Don't you even know the knowledge from textbooks? How did you get into the Imperial Capital Academy back then?"
"Even if there are many Beast Tamer, there aren't many when divided among major cities, let alone a city like Feng City that isn't adjacent to a Transcendent Fierce Beast cluster?"
Truly capable Beast Tamer will choose more dangerous places.
That's where their opportunities for evolution lie.
"Alas, my theoretical knowledge is indeed not good. I lost over twenty points in the unified entrance exam and only got second place."
Hearing Fang Ran's humblebrag, the person's mouth twitched, and he chose not to speak.
Everyone knew that the easiest points to get in the unified entrance exam were from the cultural assessment. To lose points and still get second place showed how impressive that was!
"We are Beast Tamer from the Imperial Capital," Chen Qiang said, leaning out the window.
"Beast Tamer from the Imperial Capital?"
The guards on duty quickly looked up.
The weary guards around them also couldn't help but perk up a bit.
"Let them through! The Mayor has prepared a resting place for you, please hurry!"
The guard waved his hand.
The road opened up accordingly.
As the vehicle gradually drove away, the previously dispirited crowd swept away their gloom.
"It's the Beast Tamer from the Imperial Capital, they're finally here!"
"With Beast Tamer present, will those Fierce Beasts still dare to come?"
"I'm afraid they won't come. These past few days, too many factories have been attacked by them!"
Those were important facilities for Feng City!
The group arrived at a courtyard.
Several men in suits followed behind the Mayor and quickly came before the group.
"Hello everyone, I am the Mayor of Feng City, you've finally arrived!"
The Mayor of Feng City looked very weathered.
Although he was disheveled, his face was full of integrity.
After greeting everyone one by one,
he turned his gaze to Fang Ran and said, "You must be Fang Ran, right? We owe you a lot for the capture of the Divine Union last time!"
Fang Ran always felt there was a hidden meaning in his words.
"Mayor Feng, what do you need us to do this time?" Chen Qiang interrupted.
"Several industrial facilities in our Feng City have been frequently attacked by Fierce Beasts. We would like to ask for your help in protecting them."
"I have prepared accommodation for you. We can discuss the specifics tomorrow!"
Saying this,
the people behind him led the group to a hotel specifically for receiving Beast Tamer.
The rooms arranged for everyone were undeniably luxurious. In addition to regular amenities, there was also a small, independent training room.
"Splash!"
In the frosted glass shower room,
a graceful figure was faintly visible.
A moment later, Xiao Tian, completely wet, walked out, covering her body with her burning Holy Feathers, not treating Fang Ran as an outsider at all.
After a moment, the fire feathers dried the water, and as the Holy Power dissipated, pure white wings appeared.
Her steaming figure,
made the youthful Fang Ran's blood rush.
But her holy appearance, which made it unbearable to defile her, suppressed the hint of lust in his heart.
"Do I look good?" Xiao Tian noticed Fang Ran's gaze and said softly.
This made Fang Ran feel a moment of daze, and he nodded subconsciously.
Receiving Fang Ran's response, Xiao Tian subconsciously flapped her wings twice.
"Thump thump!"
A knock on the door sounded.
Xiao Tian's expression turned cold, and she listlessly put on the sheer dress unique to Angels, tying her flowing golden hair up.
Fang Ran, meanwhile, snapped back to his senses.
He opened the door, and standing outside was Chen Qiang.
"Fang Ran, Mayor Feng sent me the list of facilities that need protection tomorrow. I've already made arrangements for the most dangerous ones, the state-owned power plant and the pharmaceutical factory."
"You and Shen Yun go to the back mountain. The factory there is the smallest, just a textile mill, but there's still a possibility of it being attacked."
"How about it? Do you have any objections? If you're not satisfied, I can switch it for you."
Fang Ran just nodded.
Chen Qiang was indirectly protecting them.
He just had some questions in his mind.
"Okay, but are these Fierce Beasts crazy? Why would they attack a textile mill?"
Could it be that Fierce Beasts also want to wear clothes?
That's unlikely. Xiao Tian doesn't even want to wear clothes at home normally, let alone those Fierce Beasts.
