A red-tailed beast! It was a red-tailed beast! Ye Chong could not believe his eyes This was the creature, alright It was a juvenile, with a pair of light red eyes on its angular head It was young, but the eyes betrayed its vicious nature The creature looked worn out The five-e was too small for it, such that it must curl in on itself to fit inside There were no visible injuries on its body The light red colored arrowhead tail was not fullyhad seen before had arrowhead tails that were crimson red in color The maturity of a red-tailed beast was not determined by its size, but by the color of its tail – the redder the arrowhead tail, the stronger the creature
The only thing that surprised Ye Chong currently was that this creature had five fingers By his experience, an eight-fingered red-tailed beast was the pinnacle of strength, while six-fingered red-tailed beasts were equivalent to a huered red-tailed beasts were not very strong, but they were still quite capable of destruction This particular red-tailed beast he was looking at had a blue tinge on its body, and he had never seen anything like it before
Why would there be red-tailed beasts here?
Ye Chong was intrigued He never expected to have red-tailed beasts in this world He heard it clearly from the ambassador – Darkniss, the place where the creature was fro had heard of Darkniss a few tiravestones that Sha Ya and the others had told him about There were also plants like Gold Leaves in the place
Suddenly, a bold idea ca – could the red-tailed beasts have entered He Yue Galaxy from Darkniss? Was Darkniss ho found himself face with nize the red-tailed beast He asked with faint surprise, ”So it's ahere, perhaps he'd seen it before”
The other councillors were also curious of the creature Few of the as this The red-tailed beast looked worn out, but they could still ith that came with it
Mu Chen hout
After aarrived He was a e eyes He looked like an honest and respectablesaluted in ht You're here because I'd like you to have a look at this strange creature It was captured in Darkniss Have you seen it before?” Sun Sieha asked gently
Xuan Ning looked towards the huge cage placed in the centre of the asseaze ”I have, Your Majesty”
”Oh, tell us rew interested He had travelled far and hen he was young, but had never been to Darkniss, known for its dangers
”Five years ago, when I had just reached Level 8, I decided to visit Darkniss Darkniss is known to be ho I invited two friends to co They were Level 7 shooters The three of usrecalled what happened back then Everyone in the assembly room was absorbed in his story
”We entered the Desert from Dual Forest The journey was smooth at first The sandlizards did not hinder us We moved quickly Later, we encountered sandscorpions That was horrible The sandscorpions always appear in hundreds or thousands, spread out for dozens of kilometers Fortunately for us, there were no sandstorms, or ould have laid down our lives there After that, we entered the Mist, where a perpetual purple htened He had heard of the Desert and the Mist, but he never knew that the mist was purple in colour However, even he are of it earlier, he would not have associated it with the red-tailed beasts, for he had not seen the creature here yet For now, it was still too early to tell I the purple mist was the same as the one he had seen in his oorld
No one noticed Ye Chong's unsettled look They were all absorbed in Xuan Ning's story
”Visibility is low, but as shooters, our parapsychic sense helps us to navigate In the Mist was a thick forest Vines and branches surrounded us Huht It was a place that was difficult for shooting We were lucky to have avoided anything really troublesoliresaurs we had to deal with”
Xuan Ning described his experiencethe battle must have been
”After we crossed the Mist, we finally entered Darkniss There is no sunlight in Darkniss, but there are strange plants that give off light in there There is also flowing lava that glows a fiery red here and there, painting a red tinge on anything you see in there”
When Xuan Ning began to talk about Darkniss, his voice turned low and serious
”Once we entered Darkniss, we proceeded carefully We knew the place was dangerous We walked along one of the lava flows that was about 20 erous encounter on our first day in Darkniss We were attacked by 14 black-striped gray dragons They were huge, standing up to about seven or eight meters tall The creatures were fast in the air, and had strong and sharp beaks and claws All three of us were injured froons swooped down fro down too quickly We were injured by the gravestones that were sent flying froround Fortunately, ere not too heavily injured, and the experience taught us to be more careful We would never have survived the visit otherwise”
Xuan Ning looked like he had not fully gotten over the encounter yet
”After that, we encountered other creatures, but none were as strong as the black-striped gray dragons On our 13th day in Darkniss, we lost our way We were panicking That was also the day we e creature Our records don't have anything on it, so that was our first tier than this one in the cage It was fighting against a pack of black-striped gray dragons There were no less than 30 of the dragons dead on the groundtheile as the unknown creature Its arrowhead tail was quick and deadly The sharp beaks and claws of the dragons did not leave anyspot until all the black-striped gray dragons were killed by the unknown creature We counted the nuround The tally came up to 55”
The people in the asse's story They realized noerful the creature in the cage was Souards The red-tailed beast seemed to notice the fear and panic of the people around it Its light red eyes glealy
”Oh, so this officer did not catch the strange creature,” Mu Shen conored him entirely and continued, ”This creature is not yet mature, but no human can catch it alive I don't think it's possible without deploying a huge fleet of fighters”
”Then how do you think this particular ani with a s creatures, Darkniss also has all kinds of poisonous things Any shooter who visited Darkniss would know that water puddles found in the place are not safe to drink from I've seen a turowing After that, the tumoric bear became weakened Its body had a shade of blue, just like this creature we have here I would guess that this creature had drank the same kind of poison, and was later found by someone The fact that there are no visible wounds on this creature supportsspoke confidently, supporting his argument with sound evidence He looked at Mu Shen sharply
Mu Shen squirmed inside and replied with a softened tone, ”As s Sir Xuan Ning has opened 's deductions were accurate The creature was not captured by them It was a tribute fro of Western Frost
Xuan Ning was not interested in exchanging further words with Mu Shen He bowed to Sun Sieha ”Your Majesty, I take my leave”
Sun Sieha was pleased to see Mu Shen intimidated He was familiar with the teht, youturned to bow to the other nobilities in the asse left the asse asked the person next to hi He immediately replied respectfully, ”Master Ye, he is the Coest shooters in Eastern Cloud He reached Level 8 by the age of 25, and a reat experience He is said to be the shooter closest to reaching Level 9 in the past five decades”
