At this time, Manager Ying spoke up and said to Zhao Chen: "If there are too many people, it will be easy to alert the enemy and let them run away, which will be troublesome."
"Don't you need a helper?" Zhao Chen said.
"No need, just a necromancer." Manager Ying looked relaxed.
"It's better to bring two more helpers to be safe..."
"You're so annoying." Manager Ying said angrily, "Are you afraid that I will solve it alone and you won't get any credit?"
"!!!" Zhao Chen's expression froze, and he said awkwardly: "How could that be? Since Manager Ying said so, then I'll follow your arrangements."
"snort."
"If you want a helper, then let's choose this guy. I'll let him lead the way and let him see the undead." The cat store manager looked at Lu Ran.
“This…” Zhao Chen was stunned. You were asked to choose a helper, not a burden. His expression changed slightly and he said, “Manager Ying, you can let Lu lead the way, but forget about such a dangerous thing as contacting a necromancer. Lu is just a newcomer…”
"At worst, it won't be too late to let Lu observe after we catch the necromancer."
"Don't worry, I'm here, everything will be fine." Manager Ying said, "A captured necromancer is of no value to be observed."
"No, this matter is still a bit..." Zhao Chen looked embarrassed and said, "Student Lu is a newcomer that Dr. Gu is optimistic about. How about I contact Dr. Gu first and ask for his advice..."
He was still worried about Lu Ran following a cat alone to encounter such a dangerous thing.
Although it is said that Manager Ying is very powerful, Lu Ran's identity is a bit sensitive after all, and he is related to another big shot.
Even though Lu Ran is quite powerful...the other party is a transnational criminal group after all.
"Huh? He is the newcomer that Gu Qingyi is optimistic about?" Manager Ying was startled and looked at Lu Ran who suddenly had a dry cough.
"Ahem, Uncle Zhao, it's okay. I want to go too." Lu Ran was a little embarrassed at this time. Ah, Xiaobailong and the others had really imagined it to this extent.
But this cat seems to know Gu Qingyi. It would be awkward if they really got in touch. Gu Qingyi doesn’t know him, Lu Ran…
"No wonder you mentioned Gu Qingyi. It turns out we've had some contact." Manager Ying looked thoughtful, nodded and said to Zhao Chen, "Don't worry about it. I know Gu Qingyi better than you do. Leave this kid to me. For the sake of Qingyi, I'll take good care of him."
"I promise to bring him back with all his limbs intact."
"Well... okay." Manager Ying said this, and since Lu Ran himself agreed, Zhao Chen didn't know what to say.
In a flash, he couldn't help but feel envious. It was comfortable to have connections. Not only did he have Dr. Gu as a backer, but now he could also easily connect with Manager Ying.
"Let's go." Manager Ying looked at Lu Ran.
"How to get there..." Lu Ran asked.
"Have you heard of the space skill, teleportation?"
…
Jinling City, the back mountain of Tianhong Town.
Along with a ray of light, two figures appeared.
After landing, Lu Ran looked around silently.
“So fast!”
Just now, Manager Ying used the space skill, Instant Teleport, and spent less than a minute to perform several space jumps, easily allowing Lu Ran to return to the mountain where the King of Death caught grasshoppers! Along the way, because the places he teleported to were all familiar to him, Lu Ran had an experience different from the teleportation in Infinite City.
So convenient.
Lu Ran swore.
No matter which pet it is.
I will definitely awaken the space system in the future! Not for any other reason, but simply because it is so convenient to use the space system to travel! With instant teleportation, why would I need to take the high-speed train or the plane?
"No one here?" After landing, Lu Ran found that there was no one here, and the pile of earth where the bodies were buried had been restored to its original appearance.
Since the identity of the body has been confirmed, it must have been dug out. Now it has been restored to facilitate Manager Ying's reinvestigation.
They evacuated until no one was left!
"Lu Ran, right?" At this time, the cat store manager suddenly said, "I didn't like you very much, but since you are the beastmaster that Xiao Qingyi likes, do you want to try something big and practice a little?"
"Ah." Lu Ran said, "What's so big?"
"Generally speaking, the necromancers that emerge in the country are not very strong. Most of them are comparable to trainee beastmasters, but they have special abilities and are a little more difficult to deal with."
"Of course I can find him and deal with him, but that would be too boring. Since you have superpowers and know Xiao Qingyi, I'll leave this training opportunity to you."
"After I find him, you deal with him and I'll help you scout the enemy lines."
He could clearly feel his pocket moving at this moment. It was probably because King Sudden Death was frightened. Ever since the cat appeared, this guy pretended to be dead for a long time. He must have felt that Manager Ying was not someone to be trifled with.
Are you afraid of being eaten by a cat?
"Yes, it's a rare experience."
"Actually... Dr. Gu and I are not that familiar with each other. She doesn't even know me. It's just that I have a sister who is favored by Dr. Gu. As for dealing with the necromancer... I'd better just watch from the side." Lu Ran admitted his weakness. He didn't really want to deal with the members of this international criminal organization personally. It would be troublesome if he was targeted.
"Will I believe you?" Manager Ying mocked, "Are you scared?"
I'm afraid? Just kidding, at most I'm adapting to the super beast mimicry of the Death King in advance! "I just don't want to get too involved with the other side... Besides, I'm not really familiar with Dr. Gu."
"It's not that you don't want to get involved with that organization. You may encounter members of the other shore who have hidden their identities when you break through the secret realm in the future. The many beast masters who enter the secret realm are all random. That is the best hunting ground for members of the other shore. They will not care about anything when looking for prey. You will not have time to adapt by then. If it weren't for the fact that you and Gu Qingyi know each other, I would not care about you."
Lu Ran smiled bitterly, feeling that there was a big misunderstanding. Why didn't the cat believe him when he told the truth?
However, Lu Ran could confirm that Manager Ying really wanted him to get training through this opportunity to prevent himself from encountering danger in the future.
"Well...if the opponent is really not strong, I'll give it a try?" Lu Ran said.
"That's right, there's nothing to be afraid of." Manager Ying said with a teachable expression, "Also, if you really defeat the other party, the official bonus will not be small. Although I don't care, for a newcomer like you, it may be a large amount of crystal currency income, enough for a long time."
"When the time comes, I'll give you the bonus, and you can declare it to the public that I solved the problem, so that you don't get too much attention. Of course, if you can't solve the problem, just ignore what I said. As a person with super powers, your strength shouldn't be too weak, right?"
"A large sum of crystal coins?" Lu Ran was stunned.
Why didn’t you say so earlier?
If he had said it earlier, he, Lu Ran, would have volunteered to capture this murderer who deserves to be killed by everyone! Punishing evil and promoting good! It is his duty! Lu Ran was filled with righteousness in an instant.
This change made store manager Ying stunned. What happened? Could this guy be very short of crystal coins?
It seems to be true. Manager Ying can sense that the lizard in Lu Ran’s pocket has not yet awakened its attributes. Does it lack money to buy materials?
Forget it, it’s none of its business.
It turned and looked at the grave.
First, they observed a few seconds of silence for this unfortunate new beastmaster.
Then, faint golden-blue ripples appeared around the body.
The golden-blue ripples continued to expand, and soon enveloped the entire mountain! Countless traces appeared one by one in its eyes, like a passing visit.
After a moment, the light disappeared.
"Okay." Manager Ying said calmly: "That necromancer is also a novice and left many traces."
"Let's go look for him. As long as he's still in Jinling, we'll find him in no time."
"Well, if he left Jinling, or even went to Infinite City, it might be a bit troublesome, but let's try to look for him first."
"Okay!" Lu Ran nodded. "If the other party is in the city, we need you as bait to lure him to a place with fewer people. Is that okay? We don't want to fight in a crowded place, and he certainly doesn't want to either."
"I would avoid showing up if I could, so as not to scare the other party and make them perform poorly."
Lu Ran's face darkened. Sure enough, he had to act as bait? ! "Why do I feel that direct baiting is a bit unreliable?" Lu Ran said, "If the other party is not stupid, he will definitely not attack a strange beastmaster. He should investigate his strength in advance..."
The cat raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said, "Soul devouring is addictive for low-level necromancers, just like that. Few people can control it. Generally, in China, these people are small characters who don't have that kind of determination. Only the core members and senior executives of the other shore can be said to have fully mastered this profession."
Which one is that? Lu Ran was stunned.
"For these minor characters, the Other Shore basically casts a wide net, mass-producing and bewitching them, just like raising Gu. It doesn't matter even if a lot of them die. Only those who can truly master the profession of necromancer will be truly absorbed by the Other Shore."
"Just take your lizard and wander around the other party. With their sensitivity to souls, they will be able to tell that you are both fragrant and weak. After all, your lizard is really weak. However, considering that you haven't made a contract yet and it's only level 1, it's normal. But the other party can't tell whether you have a contract or not, and will definitely subconsciously think that guy is your pet."
King of Sudden Death: [I want to die suddenly! ]
Lu Ran thought it seemed feasible. He patted the King of Sudden Death in his pocket and said, "Don't die suddenly either."
Did you hear that?
Just follow me and become stronger!
Otherwise, there are still a group of guys out there who can "kill monsters and level up", and you will be in even greater danger!
The King of Sudden Death trembled, but felt that what Lu Ran said made sense. The world was so dangerous... In order not to be killed, it had to follow Lu Ran and become stronger. It would be best if... even its soul could be trained to be extremely resistant! So that the enemy could not be defeated!
