The next morning, Lu Yuan patted Zhao Qiang on the shoulder, gave him some instructions, and then left with Gong Yuehan.

Chigai Mountain was formerly known as Huagai Mountain.

After the apocalypse broke out, this place was occupied by the Nine Netherworld Fire Beast, and the flowers, grass and trees here were burned to the ground, leaving a vast expanse of barren land.

Therefore, it was renamed Chigai Mountain.

Along the way, Gong Yuehan explained some basic knowledge about the Nine Netherworld Fire Beast to Lu Yuan.

The Nine Netherworld Fire Beast is a social animal with average strength, and it can breathe fire.

They are not of high rank, but they usually live together in groups of three to five.

When they fight, it's always a group brawl, which makes them difficult to deal with, or rather, very troublesome.

They rarely act alone; they all exist in family groups and are known for their fierce and aggressive nature.

A fight can wipe out an entire family, so if the whole family is wiped out, then the entire clan is essentially exterminated.

However, Lu Yuan wasn't afraid; Bai Ling wasn't afraid of fire-breathing things.

As soon as Lu Yuan and his companion entered the mountain, they indeed saw groups of three to five Nine Netherworld Fire Beasts, their bodies glowing with a ghostly blue light.

It looks a lot like a country dog, slightly larger, but not by much.

Its eyes are crimson, its ears are pointed, and its mouth is steaming with hot air; it's estimated that even a sneeze could produce flames.

"Brother Yuan, this is the Nine Netherworld Fire Beast!"

How do we kill them?

At this moment, Lu Yuan and Gong Yuehan were hiding behind a large rock, secretly observing.

True to his character, Lu Yuan grabbed a machete and charged forward with Bai Ling.

However, since Gong Yuehan is present, we need to consider safety issues.

"You said this thing can breathe fire, right? I'll have Bai Ling try it out first, and you can assist her from the side."

After Lu Yuan finished speaking, he patted Bai Ling's head and gave her some instructions.

"Bai Ling, you can eat whatever you want, but you have to keep my head. It's a quest item, understand?"

"By the way, what do they want the head of the Nine Netherfire Beast for?"

This question was posed by Lu Yuan to Gong Yuehan.

Gong Yuehan shook her head.

"I don't know either. Many missions are strange and unusual. It's not unusual to need the head of the Nine Netherworld Fire Beast."

"For example, some require the head and heart of a monster, while others require fingernails. There was a really strange quest last time that actually required that thing from the Heavenly Demon Bull."

Gong Yuehan blushed a little as she said this.

Lu Yuan didn't understand what Gong Yuehan meant by "that thing".

So he looked at Gong Yuehan with an inquiring gaze.

Gong Yuehan blushed and began to explain.

"It's what men use to urinate."

Lu Yuan understood. No wonder Gong Yuehan was embarrassed to say it; it turned out to be this kind of thing.

Lu Yuan really wanted to ask if he had done this task before, but then he thought better of it.

This thing isn't just for peeing, it can also...

"Cough cough cough!"

"Bai Ling, it's your turn now, get going!"

Bai Ling licked Lu Yuan's hand twice, meowed twice, and then charged directly towards the Nine Netherworld Fire Beast not far away.

The Nine Netherworld Fire Beast also saw Bai Ling, and after a moment of surprise, it turned and ran away.

He doesn't actually enjoy fighting, as Gong Yuehan claimed?

Are you aggressive and combative?

What's going on?

At this moment, Gong Yuehan was also completely bewildered.

That's what the mission materials say, so is there something wrong with the information?

"Yuehan, I think your information is wrong. Why don't you let the Earth Demon Bear give it a try too?"

Gong Yuehan nodded, waved her hand, and summoned the Earth Demon Bear.

At this moment, Bai Ling had already killed one of the Nine Netherworld Fire Beasts.

Before long, except for the head, the rest of the body had been swallowed by Bai Ling.

Lu Yuan casually picked up the head and tossed it into his spatial storage.

Bai Ling was very excited. With so many Netherworld Fire Beasts here, she thought she finally had a chance to have a good meal.

During this time with its owner, it has never been able to eat its fill.

Bai Ling licked her lips and continued charging towards the next head.

"Earth Demon Bear, charge!"

Seeing how easily Bai Ling had killed a Nine Netherworld Fire Beast, Gong Yuehan's confidence increased.

This is a great opportunity to show off in front of Lu Yuan.

So, after much difficulty, the order to attack was finally given to the Earth Demon Bear.

The Earth Demon Bear patted its chest, then followed Bai Ling's example and charged towards another group of Nine Netherworld Fire Beasts.

The Earth Demon Bear is also a very proud being; if Bai Ling can do it, so can it!

As a result, as soon as they engaged in combat, all the fur on their bodies was burned off, and it took them a tremendous amount of effort to kill just one.

The key issue is that it was also besieged by three other Netherworld Fire Beasts, leaving it no choice but to flee in a sorry state.

Gong Yuehan blushed; this was too embarrassing.

"You stupid, smelly bear, use your skill now!"

Gong Yue stomped her feet in a cold sweat, and a certain part of her body trembled, making Lu Yuan swallow hard.

Fortunately, it was time for battle, so Lu Yuan turned his attention to Bai Ling.

At the same time, I was internally complaining, "They're both pets, but the difference is amazing..."

Let's just focus on collecting the quest items.

Bai Ling was like a harvester, relentlessly slaughtering, while Lu Yuan collected the heads of the Nine Netherworld Fire Beasts from behind.

They had originally planned to release the other two pets to help as well.

In the end, I just let it go.

There are only two reasons why Bai Ling was able to do so easily.

First, the inherent aura of the ferocious beast.

Second, Bai Ling is not afraid of fire.

Lu Yuan's Crimson Fire Python, although it is not afraid of fire and can breathe fire, is not that powerful.

As for Cerberus, it had two heads bitten off by Bai Ling before, and it's unknown when it will recover.

Besides, with Bai Ling's speed and combat power, she doesn't need any other pets to help her.

As darkness fell, Lu Yuan ordered Bai Ling to stop killing monsters.

At this moment, Gong Yuehan walked over, followed by a bald black bear.

That's right!

It's a black bear!

The Earth Demon Bear was originally yellowish-brown, but now its fur has been burned off, and even its skin has been burned black by the flames.

It looks as ridiculous as it can be.

"Brother Yuan, I've collected twenty-one heads. How many have you collected?"

Gong Yuehan felt a little embarrassed, then glared fiercely at the Earth Demon Bear.

The Earth Demon Bear innocently drew circles on the ground.

"That's pretty good. I've collected seventy-seven of them."

Gong Yuehan suffered another critical blow. What do you mean, she only collected seventy-seven?

"It's getting late, let's find a place to rest for the night."

"And get some food too, we've been starving all day."

Lu Yuan rubbed his rumbling stomach. If he weren't hungry, he would still choose to fight.

After all, this is a win-win situation.

It can not only collect quest items, but also improve the pet's strength.

However, when they left in the morning, they left all the food for Zhao Qiang and his group.

In other words, apart from having eaten a little something in the morning, they are still hungry.

Just as Lu Yuan was looking in the direction, Gong Yuehan asked a question that seemed to ask no one.

"Can't we eat this Nine Netherworld Fire Beast?"
