LV16 monster

Ye Chen nodded and gave a grunt of acknowledgement.

Tang Qiu suddenly turned her gaze toward Ye Chen, her eyes deep as she said, "That rumored ape-type pet looks a lot like the King Kong Ape in your team."

Ye Chen was slightly taken aback, then laughed, "You think we snatched it? Even if we wanted to snatch it, we wouldn't have the ability to do so. You know how hard it is to obtain a hell secret realm key."

"Hahaha!" Tang Qiu suddenly burst into laughter. "No, don't take it seriously, I was just joking."

Ye Chen also gave a dry laugh.

Tang Qiu continued, "This mission is to hunt a LV16 monster. When the time comes, our team and Gu Ming's team will rely on our own strength. Whoever kills the monster gets all the loot. We'll stick to the old rules: I don't want the experience or the loot; I only want the monster's heart core."

Ye Chen nodded in agreement.

Lin Nuoyi asked curiously, "Why do you need to send two teams to hunt just one monster?"

Tang Qiu sighed and said, "The Law Enforcement Alliance isn't stable right now. The top brass of the Seventh Area of the Law Enforcement Alliance has issued new orders. An Elder of the Aggregation Zone died, and selecting the new top brass depends on the strength of each team, speaking through battle records."

"Hmm? How are the Ranks in your Enforcement Team divided?" Ye Chen asked.

Tang Qiu replied, "Team Member, Captain, Team Leader, Minister, Elder, Deputy Commander, General Commander—this is the division for the Aggregation Zone, and there are higher Ranks above that. The one who died this time was an Elder, and many Ministers are eyeing this position, which is why this situation has arisen."

Ye Chen gave an 'Oh' of understanding.

He hadn't expected the Law Enforcement Alliance to have so many Rank divisions.

Tang Qiu continued, speaking as if to herself, "Although I am currently a Captain, I don't have any team members. The Aggregation Zone has a total of one General Commander, three Deputy Commanders, eight Elders, twenty Ministers, and eighty Team Leaders. Under the Team Leaders, there are numerous small squads. All the Ministers have dispatched their respective personnel to execute missions and hunt monsters."

"I originally accepted this mission, but Gu Ming and his team accepted it too, which is why this situation occurred."

Lin Nuoyi said confusedly, "Gu Ming isn't on your side?"

Tang Qiu shook her head, "No, Gu Ming is under Minister Song, and my Master is Minister Li."

The group nodded, indicating they understood.

The location they were heading to was a residential complex named Sky Villa, a relatively high-end real estate project in the west of the Aggregation Zone that had just been handed over this year.

Half an hour later, Ye Chen and his group arrived at the location and got out of the car.

Gu Ming and his five members had already gone in first.

"Ye Chen, have you reached LV8 yet?"

Ye Chen looked at Tang Qiu and nodded.

Tang Qiu finally felt a little more at ease.

Tang Qiu continued, "Gu Ming's pet is a LV9 Furious Sea Mad Shark, a Tier 5 Divine-Grade. Its strength cannot be underestimated."

Ye Chen patted Tang Qiu's shoulder and smiled, "Don't worry, you will definitely complete this mission."

With that, Ye Chen took the lead and walked into the residential complex.

The complex had a total of seven buildings, three of which had been completely destroyed.

Everyone carefully and cautiously explored step by step.

After all, a LV16 monster's strength could not be underestimated.

Plus, now that they had begun devouring each other, all their attributes would see significant improvements.

"Awoo!"

A long howl.

A building collapsed instantly, and a centaur-like monster holding an axe killed another monster.

Without hesitation, it swallowed that monster directly into its mouth.

After devouring that monster, the centaur's HP obviously increased.

Its figure was as tall as a ten-story building.

Tang Qiu was instantly dumbfounded.

"This! This thing is too big!"

【War Centaur】

Rank: LV16

Attribute: Dark

Grade: Common

Skill: Shadow Dash

Combat Power: 11200

HP: 29000

Note: The War Centaur will launch a phantom dash; being hit will cause a state of confusion and continuous HP loss.

Although the War Centaur's size was terrifying, its attributes were just average.

Generally speaking, this LV16 War Centaur shouldn't have had such high HP, but after devouring that monster just now, its HP had increased.

Ye Chen said to Zhu Qiang and the others, "You guys go practice first."

"Alright! The first battle after reaching LV8, here I come!"

Zhu Qiang was a bit excited.

Tie Niu was just about to step forward, but was stopped by Ye Chen. "Did you forget what I said?"

Tie Niu nodded and stayed where he was.

Gu Ming and his group's pets also emerged.

Gu Ming's pet was a LV9 Furious Sea Mad Shark.

Although it had the appearance of a shark, it was in a humanoid form, with strong, powerful limbs and an eight-pack of abs.

The other four people's pets were slightly inferior, but they were all Advanced Legendary quality.

LV7, Six-Armed Fire Bear.

LV7, Crown Peacock.

LV7, Triangular Iguana.

LV7, Three-Legged Wind Wolf.

Before Ye Chen's group could make a move, Gu Ming and his team rushed forward first.

The Furious Sea Mad Shark held a trident, and its body was three meters tall.

Piggy Dragon snorted and charged toward the War Centaur.

Its speed was much faster than the Furious Sea Mad Shark.

Gu Ming took a glance and muttered, "A LV8 Divine-Grade pet, it has some strength, but it's still trash."

Ye Chen glanced at Gu Ming, and just then, Gu Ming also looked at Ye Chen.

Gu Ming said with a hint of disdain, "Kid, I advise you not to compete with my Divine Martial Department. Helping that Tang Qiu for a bit of commission isn't worth losing your life over."

Ye Chen gave a light smile, rolled his eyes at Gu Ming, and ignored him.

The Furious Sea Mad Shark leaped up, landed on the War Centaur's back, and stabbed down fiercely with its trident.

-2100!

Piggy Dragon had also slammed into the War Centaur's chest.

-2500!

Gu Ming's eyes widened instantly, looking at Piggy Dragon with a surprised expression.

They were both Divine-Grade pets, and Piggy Dragon was a level lower than the Furious Sea Mad Shark, so how was its damage higher than the Furious Sea Mad Shark's?

It wasn't just Gu Ming; Tang Qiu couldn't figure it out either.

As a LV16 monster, the War Centaur also possessed a bit of intelligence.

It swung the large axe in its hand toward the Furious Sea Mad Shark.

The Furious Sea Mad Shark dodged hurriedly and quickly ran under the War Centaur's body.

It prepared to stab the trident into the War Centaur's belly.

The War Centaur let out a roar, lifted its two front hooves, and was about to stomp down on the Furious Sea Mad Shark.

Gu Ming's other four team members had also moved out.

Each of them brandished their weapons and rushed toward the War Centaur.

The War Centaur was not the type to sit and wait for death; it raised its front hooves high, assuming a standing posture.

"Screech!"

A long, shrill cry that pierced the soul.

Affected by the shrill sound, the four pets had to slow down.

Just at this moment, the sky suddenly darkened.

A phantom suddenly appeared from within the War Centaur's body and rushed at top speed toward the Three-Legged Wind Wolf and the others.

"Swish!"

The phantom passed through the bodies of the Three-Legged Wind Wolf and the others.

The four pets, including the Three-Legged Wind Wolf, instantly froze in place, staring blankly ahead.

Their HP was rapidly plummeting.

Gu Ming frowned tightly.

Ye Chen watched and couldn't help but shake his head, summoning the Blood Asura.
