"roar!!!"

An extremely tall giant bear, its body covered in red thunder, continuously attacks forward.

Boom! What collided with it was a sword-marked Husky holding a big sword in its mouth.

Erha stepped steadily on the ground with his limbs, bit the big sword firmly, and used the sword to block the opponent's violent lightning palm.

The collision between the sword and the bear's paw made Bao Xiong feel that his palm was about to be cut and frozen.

"Roar!!" It yelled angrily again, puzzled as to how this dog could be so powerful.

"That's enough, Mr. Ha. I won't practice anymore."

Lu Ran gave the order, and Boss Ha's eyes flashed. He used all his strength and swung a ten-fold storm slash——

Swish!!

Under the incredible gaze of the violent bear holding the red lightning, its body instantly split into two, and there was a layer of cold frost on the cut surface...

Seeing this, Lu Ran pondered for a moment. What could he say about a dog holding a sword?

If it does not evolve into human form, its close combat skills will still be too crude and simple.

Lu Ran had no choice, after all, swords were not for dogs.

Therefore, we need to make Mr. Ha’s swordsmanship more skillful.

In addition to the spiritual realm of sword intent, it seems that the art of swift sword control must be learned quickly.

Advanced energy release control techniques...

By then, using the wind to control the sword, Mr. Ha will be able to perform various difficult sword techniques with the sword...

"Woof!" Mr. Ha defeated his opponent and turned around with a smile.

This time, with the tenfold storm slash, its teeth... unexpectedly did not fall off.

The dog is very satisfied with his current physical strength. He can now perfectly control ten times energy compression!

Of course, in addition to physical strength, it is also related to its repeated use experience. Constant injuries and use allow it to quickly and skillfully control energy, which is an advantage that other pets rarely have.

After all, if a pet animal is injured, it will usually take a long time to recuperate, and it is difficult to quickly replace its teeth.

“So, we need to improve our energy compression skills to a high level and develop 20x, 30x, or even 100x compression… Otherwise, how can we forge new weapons!”

Lu Ran muttered.

At the same time sigh.

Because the rewards for this secret realm challenge are so garbage.

【Congratulations on completing the secret realm challenge. 】

[Rating: SSS level! ]

【Congratulations on getting 1,000 crystal coins. 】

[Congratulations on obtaining the advanced resource, Thunderstruck Wood. ]

[Congratulations on obtaining the advanced resource, the Mutated Bear Paw. ]

【Congratulations on obtaining special resources and upgrading cards. 】

Not only is there no red lightning crystal, there is no lightning-strengthening beast-taming skill, and there is no rare material! !

The two high-level materials that exploded are not worthless, but they are nothing compared to 50,000 crystal coins.

The only thing to be thankful for is that there is an upgrade card, but this thing... Lu Ran can use it himself, so he will definitely not sell it.

If I collect 9 more cards, I can upgrade Mr. Ha's contract card once more...

"It's over. I have a bad feeling. Luck is conserved. The special crystal exploded once before, but who knows how many times it will explode this time!" In the ruins forest, Lu Ran suddenly scratched his head.

Beside him, Mr. Ha sighed helplessly. It seemed that his luck was bad again...

…

After a secret experience, Lu Ran and Mr. Ha returned to their private room to rest as usual.

At this time, because he was so unlucky, Lu Ran fell into deep thinking about life.

He felt that it was too inefficient to clear the secret realm by himself.

It's not that the speed of killing monsters is too slow, but the efficiency of making money! "How about finding three teammates?" Lu Ran pondered.

One advantage of forming a team of four is that there are four rewards for completing a level.

If four teammates of equal skill level form a team, the rewards for completing the game will naturally belong to each of them.

But if a big boss brings three rookies to the secret realm, then it wouldn't be too much for the three rookies to hand over the rare materials that exploded in addition to keeping the basic crystal coins, right? Lu Ran's brain was working frantically.

Of course, the premise is that the three people cannot be too cumbersome and need protection.

"If you drag three people and challenge them once, it's equivalent to getting four rewards."

"Efficiency quadrupled..."

Lu Ran’s brain was still working frantically.

In addition, after defeating the BOSS, four people harvesting other resources in the secret realm together is much more efficient than collecting them slowly by one person.

"Now, even without the Divine Deer Pendant, I can still pass the Abyss Novice Secret Realm with just Boss Ha and the Ice Sky Greatsword. It's no problem to bring three people with me. This way, the probability of getting special crystals or beast taming skills will be much higher..."

Lu Ran thought about it and felt more and more that it was possible.

However, this girl must be obsessed with the work of "Green Sea Poison Queen" recently... Although she will definitely not refuse if I invite her to go to the secret realm together.

People from Lujia Village are also fine, since their levels are all about the same anyway.

Lu Ran pondered that there was another benefit to doing this, which was that it would also allow the beastmaster being led to grow rapidly.

After all, the other party handed over rare materials, and Lu Ran would not be so stingy as to leave nothing for the other party.

By then, if they can learn the right beast control skills and the right special crystals, won't their strength improve? For example, Fang Lan has not learned the beast control skills yet, and has not prepared the special crystals of the Great Xia Wolf Spider.

If there is no big boss leading the team, it will take Fang Lan a long time to get it done by himself.

But with Lu Ran's help, things will be much more efficient.

Those big guilds basically all use this "old leading new" operation to quickly accumulate foundation.

Lu Ran felt that he could also learn this method. After all, he was now in the novice secret realm stage and was capable of killing people at will.

By then, we can form an elite team and participate in the freshman competition of the Beastmaster University together.

If we all take the top 100, top 64, top 32, etc., wouldn't there be a lot of rewards?

If you think about it carefully, it is indeed better than going it alone.

“I didn’t expect that we would have to form a team so soon.” Lu Ran still remembered that at the beginning, he said that he would have enough strength to form a secret realm team of his own.

The original purpose was that he was worried that he would not be able to conquer the secret realm of the abyss alone, so he wanted to find help.

Who would have known that in the blink of an eye, the goal had become to make money faster with four people working together...

Lu Ran smiled and shook his head. It was true that plans could not keep up with changes.

Thinking of this, Lu Ran logged off and planned to talk to Fang Lan first.

…

Green Sea City, Starlight Villa Community.

Lu Ran and Mr. Ha appeared in the living room.

As soon as he came out, Lu Ran skillfully picked up the charging and fully charged mobile phone.

“So many missed calls?”

Lu Ran was stunned and found that he had several missed calls.

After a closer look, they were all calling from Jinling... The caller was Zhao Chen! Xiao Bailong's old boss... What could it be? Lu Ran called back.

"Lu Ran?" Soon, Zhao Chen's surprised voice came from the other side.

"Uncle Zhao, what's wrong? I was in Infinite City before." Lu Ran said.

"Yeah, I know. I've seen relevant information about you on the Internet. Congratulations."

"I called you because of something else."

"Have you received any news?"

"What news?" Lu Ran asked.

"In addition to dozens of provincial capitals, due to the revival of spiritual energy, there is an urgent need to integrate the power of beastmasters. The alliance has also begun to build beastmaster buildings in second-tier cities. It is necessary to gather civilian beastmasters in the form of associations."

"Isn't this great?" Lu Ran said.

Now, except for big cities, the beast-taming power in second-tier cities like Green Sea City is too scattered... If there is official management, the situation will indeed be much better.

"Do you know the structure of the Beast Taming Association? Take the Jinling Beast Taming Building as an example. There is a chairman and ten directors. For example, I am one of the directors of the Jinling Association. The president of the Star Guild, Xingchen, is also one of the directors of the Jinling Association."

"I heard about the situation in Green Sea City. Dr. Gu applied for special authority to let you manage Green Sea City's supernatural affairs, right?"

"Yes." Lu Ran.

"This experimental zone is actually of great importance. Dr. Gu made the decision alone. I'm afraid not everyone in the alliance's top management is satisfied with it."

"So it is very likely that Green Sea City will also establish a Beast Tamer Association, and the Alliance will send a former Beast Tamer to serve as the chairman to supervise and restrain you to prevent you from doing anything wrong."

"It's not very likely, but it should have been confirmed. Theoretically, you should be the chairman of the Green Sea Association. After all, some people are still worried about letting a 17-year-old boy take charge of a big city."

Lu Ran frowned, he knew that if he had anything to do with the official, there would be a lot of trouble. It was indeed not easy to be the King of the Green Sea. How could this king be comfortable if he had to have a boss?

However, Lu Ran sighed, which was understandable. After all, he really had no management experience. If a beastmaster who had seen other beast-taming civilizations could come to assist, it would indeed be beneficial to the entire city.

Lu Ran is not an unreasonable person. He just takes it one step at a time. What if the person who comes is a good one?

"Any news about who it is?" Lu Ran asked.

"To be honest, I have some inside information. If you knew who this person is, you wouldn't tell Dr. Gu about it, or try to make things difficult for him, suppress him, or exclude him, right?"

Lu Ran was stunned and said, "How is this possible? If it is a senior with whom we can communicate normally, Lu Hai will welcome him very much."

"But if he wants to get involved in everything, then let him take care of it."

He decided not to stay and went straight back to Lujia Village to run for village chief, feeling that his future was just as bright.

Lu Ran just hoped that the other party would not treat him as a subordinate and order him around. Essentially, he still wanted to be a little freer.

"Hey... that person... is actually me. I don't know what the higher-ups were thinking. They sent me to Green Sea as the chairman!" Zhao Chen complained, "Student Lu Ran, you know me. Don't worry, I won't interfere when I get there. You can do whatever you want, as long as you don't cause any big news. I'll just be a mascot and a tool."

Zhao Chen was very annoyed. He was transferred from the Magic City to Jinling, and then from Jinling to Green Sea. Although he felt it was a good thing, it was too much trouble.

Lu Ran: ??? No wonder there are so many layers of armor, it turns out to be you! (End of this chapter)
