Sokto's face turned dark and he threw the telescope to the ground with force. His expression kept changing and he was secretly resentful in his heart.
It was a mistake. I should not have listened to that old man and I wouldn't have fallen out with Maine.
He clenched his fists, determined not to let Maine continue to grow. Now that he had found Flying Dragonmon, perhaps soon he would be able to form a bond with Flying Lionmon!
Xie Sen didn't expect to see Sokto suddenly. He noticed that Maine's hand around his waist unconsciously tightened. Thinking about Maine and Sokto, he couldn't help but feel worried.
He stretched out his left hand and covered the back of Maine's hand. Maine relaxed slightly, resting his chin on his shoulder, hiding the coldness in his eyes: "I'm fine."
Xie Sen joked: "Who said you were in trouble? I just wanted to touch your hand."
He said to the black dragon again: "Slow down, you will fall if you go too fast. The giant python beast and the giant armor beast are still down there."
"Well, I'll go down and find them now." said the black dragon, flying downwards.
When they were almost reaching the ground, they saw the giant python beast coiled up with its head erect and calling softly. The giant armored beast was beside it, and opposite them were Huo Feng and the giant wolf beast.
Maine jumped down from the black dragon's back holding Xie Sen. Xie Sen looked at Huo Feng in confusion: "Why are you here?"
Didn't you say before that you would take Xueyue to a mountain closer to the mining area? This place is far from the mining area!
Huo Feng jumped off Xueyue and rubbed the side of Xueyue's neck. "After entering the mountain, Xueyue was attracted by the energy and ran here." As he spoke, his eyes could not help but fall on the black dragon, unable to hide his surprise, "Is this a flying dragon beast?"
Xie Sen nodded: "Yes," he paused, "I hope you can keep the energy matter a secret."
Huo Feng said: "Well, I won't say much."
Xie Sen smiled and glanced at the aircraft flying overhead: "Has Sokto been cleared of suspicion?"
Huo Feng nodded: "He was released in the morning. He is in the aircraft?" Huo Feng was puzzled, "What is he doing here? And he just arrived and he's already on his way back."
Maine sneered, "Maybe they came to deal with me, but when they saw Flying Dragon Beast, they felt they had no chance of winning, so they left."
Huo Feng had heard a lot of rumors about Maine and the Kes family, so he was not surprised to hear him say this: "What are you going to do? If he clears his suspicion, he will continue to be the head of the garrison on Mine Star A. If he wants to frame you, it won't be difficult."
Maine said, "It was a bit tricky at first, and we needed to make more preparations. It was just right for him to come here in person." A cold look flashed across his eyes. "We discovered his private collection of gold crystals. He probably came here to move them."
Huo Feng was stunned for a moment, but soon understood what he meant. He smiled and said, "In this case, we must notify the investigators as soon as possible. If we are slow, the investigation team may have already left Mine Planet A."
Maine nodded in agreement, opened the bracelet, asked Huo Feng for the contact information of the investigation office, and then sent a message.
Huo Feng looked at Xie Sen and said, "I tried to contact you before, but your communicators showed no signal."
Xie Sen said: "Maybe we were underground at that time."
Huo Feng suddenly realized: "Where did you find the gold crystal mine?"
Xie Sen pointed to a mountain not far away and said, "Under that mountain." He thought of the extensive underground passages and the large amount of gold ore in Black Dragon's new territory, and felt a little reassured.
He reached out and touched the black dragon's phosphorus armor: "Is there any way to prevent people from discovering your new territory?"
Black Dragon gave them the ore from the old site, and they could decide how to use it themselves, but there were many interconnected roads underground, and when the investigators went to the old site to check the gold ore, it was impossible for them not to be curious about the other roads.
If you walk along the road, you will always find the black dragon's new territory, which is full of the black dragon's treasures. If they are taken away, it will get angry and no one can stop it.
"This is easy. Let Ajia block all the roads leading to my new territory, and then no one will find us." Black Dragon said in a relaxed tone.
Xie Sen was surprised: "Can the giant armored beast dig holes and fill them up?"
"Of course. Isn't it easy to just pile up the extra dirt from the hole?"
His tone of speaking common sense made Xie Sen feel that his IQ was being questioned. Seeing the black dragon turning around and preparing to block the way for the giant armor, he suddenly had an idea and quickly called out to the black dragon: "Wait."
The black dragon turned its head and looked at him. He touched the black dragon's scales and said, "Don't touch the new territory. Leave an intersection in the old territory and seal off the rest of the roads. Make it into a single cave. Some people will go in to move ore later. If they find another road, they will definitely be curious and inquire about it. Seal off the old territory and the workload will be less."
He looked at the giant armored beast and said, "Will it be too late for such a wide road?"
The black dragon said, "It's not in time. Ajia is very powerful." It turned around and told the giant armored beast about Xie Sen's request. The giant armored beast responded with a light cry and turned around to walk back to its old territory.
It walked while looking up and barking, making a long "whoosh...whoosh..." sound.
Soon, rustling sounds were heard everywhere. Xie Sen looked to the side and saw many pangolins suddenly emerging from the soil, rocks, and vegetation, all running towards the giant armored beast.
The giant armored beast took its summoned companions to the black dragon's old territory and soon disappeared from their sight.
Xie Sen exclaimed: "How amazing."
The black dragon wagged its tail proudly and said, "The roads underground were all dug by Ajia."
Less than twenty minutes later, the giant armored beast came back. It barked at the black dragon and then looked at Xie Sen. Xie Sen raised his hand and touched its long, pointed snout. The giant armored beast's eyes lit up and it tilted its head to rub against it: "So comfortable."
Xie Sen said: "Thank you, thank you for your hard work."
The giant armored beast buried its head in its chest, looking very shy.
"They are coming." Maine said.
Xie Sen looked up and saw a flying vehicle flying above them at a very slow speed, circling around, probably looking for a place to land.
Finally, the aircraft drove to a nearby stone mountain. Four men in black uniforms descended one by one along the traction ladder and jumped to the top of the mountain.
The aircraft did not leave and continued to circle around.
After they landed on the top of the mountain, they quickly went down the mountain and headed according to the address Maine left when he contacted them. Soon they met Xie Sen and the others.
The four were stunned when they saw Flying Dragonmon, Pythonmon and Armormon: "Oh my God, am I dazzled?"
"It's actually Flydramon, so cool, this is the first time I've seen a real Flydramon."
After sighing, their eyes quickly swept over Xie Sen and the other two in amazement, and finally fell on Xie Sen. The dragon whiskers of the black dragon beast were wrapped around Xie Sen's wrist.
"I know you. You are the 'Contracted Beast'. You are here. So, are the contracted beasts really broadcasting live in the live broadcast room themselves?"
“Incredible!”
Xie Sen smiled at them but did not give an accurate response.
One of the tall blond men asked, "Were you the ones who contacted the investigation team?"
"It's me," Maine said, "Sokto came just now, but when he saw us, he left again."
He didn't say much, but the direction of this sentence was very clear. Why did Suoketo come here suddenly? And why did he leave when he saw people? Was it because he felt guilty?
The blond man said, "We met on the road. Tell me what you found."
Maine said, “Follow me.”
The group moved to Black Dragon's old territory. As soon as they entered, Xie Sen felt as if he had walked into the wrong place. The territory that originally had passages everywhere now became a closed hole. Except for the intersection they walked on, there were walls all around.
Therefore, the light of the gold crystal mine did not radiate out and appeared even brighter.
The black dragon hummed excitedly. Xie Sen turned his wrist and quickly grabbed its dragon whiskers: "Don't go over there."
If the black dragon passed by, it would be exposed. Seeing that the black dragon liked these ores, the investigation team could easily link the reduction of ores to the contracted beast.
His touch made the Black Dragon feel particularly comfortable. He lay down beside Xie Sen and rubbed his arm.
The four members of the investigation team took photos around to record the first scene, and then put all the gold crystal ore in the space backpack. The blond man said to Maine: "Thank you for your report. We will continue to investigate. We may need your cooperation in the future."
Maine said: "I will cooperate."
The blond man asked again, "Why are you here?"
Maine looked at Flydramon, his purpose was self-evident.
The blond man did not continue to ask him how he knew that Feilongmon was here. The trick to finding contracted beasts is a secret and no one is willing to share it, otherwise the price of high-level contracted beasts would not be so expensive.
The investigation team was very efficient. They took the gold crystal ore, asked a few more questions, and then left.
After leaving the cave, Huo Feng asked, "Xueyue brought me here. I'm going to call a flying vehicle to pick me up on my way back. Do you want to come with me?"
Xie Sen asked Black Dragon, and Black Dragon said, "I want to be next to you."
Xie Sen pointed at the black dragon and said, "We don't need the flying machine anymore. It will take us back."
Xueyue nudged Huo Feng and said, "I'm not tired. I want to go back with them. I also want to chat with them."
So the three of them did not call for a flying vehicle. Xie Sen and Maine sat on the back of the black dragon, which flew in the sky. Below, Xue Yue carried Huo Feng on her back, and moved forward together with the giant python beast and the giant armored beast.
The three of them were all very fast, and they were chatting and having a great time as they moved forward.
The black dragon would fly over to them from time to time to say a few words, and then fly back into the air soon after.
"The live broadcast Xueyue just mentioned seems to be very interesting!" Black Dragon asked excitedly, "It said there are many smart contracted beasts there. Can I play with them?"
"Of course," Xie Sen said with a smile, "If you appear in the live broadcast room, the audience will definitely be shocked."
"I want to go!" Black Dragon said immediately.
Xie Sen said: "They are on the Brandt Star. If everything is fine, we can leave tomorrow."
At this point, Xie Sen was a little worried. Given the large size of the three of them, the spaceship that brought them here could barely accommodate them, but the space they had to move around in would be very limited, and he didn't know if they could remain motionless for eight hours.
However, if Long Teng can successfully form a contract and put the flying dragon beast into the space buckle, it will take up much less space.
When the few people returned, they caused a huge sensation. After all, the flying dragon beast was too conspicuous in the air.
Soon, many people gathered around the building where they were staying, all of them came to see the high-level contracted beasts. Among them were miners on vacation and military personnel, all of whom looked excited and envious.
"Who are they? They have only been here for one day and they have found an S-level contracted beast and two A-level contracted beasts!"
"I don't know. The contracted beasts in the mountains are all wild and difficult to get along with. It's incredible that they are so docile around them."
"If I had known there was a flying dragon beast in the mountain, I would have gone in to look for it. Maybe the flying dragon beast could be mine."
"Forget it. If you go, you might even lose your life."
Xie Sen looked at the three big guys and asked Huo Feng: "Is there a bigger spot?"
Huo Feng nodded: "There is a basement."
The basement was fully equipped with lighting, as bright as day, and the three were successfully settled in the basement. They often live underground and had no difficulty adapting.
The black dragon had been wrapping its whiskers around Xie Sen's left wrist. Xie Sen was a little worried. The flying rhinoceros beast had formed a bond with him immediately after he recovered the energy, and the black dragon beast had been greatly affected by the energy. He felt that the longer it was delayed, the worse it would be.
He stretched out his right hand and touched the phosphorus armor on the black dragon's head: "I'll call my friend over. The sooner we form a bond, the better it will be for you."
“I don’t want a beast master who is too weak.” The Black Dragon still said this.
Xie Sen smiled and said, "The bond is the result of the choice of both parties. If you are not satisfied, no one can force you."
The black dragon put his head on the ground: "Let him try."
Xie Sen opened his bracelet and contacted Long Teng, who answered the call quickly. His voice was brisk: "Asen, what's the matter?"
Xie Sen switched the voice communication to video communication and enlarged the virtual screen so that Long Teng could see the entire basement scene clearly: "Main and I are on Mine Star A now. Do you have time to come over?"
“Ahhh…” Long Teng saw the black dragon head at a glance and suddenly jumped up from the sofa, his face pressed against the virtual screen. His eyes glowed brightly, and he was so excited that he was speechless for a moment.
"A Teng, why are you so mad?" A deep voice came, followed by a gentle voice, "Yu, be gentle to your son. Something must have happened to him, otherwise A Teng wouldn't call him like that."
Xie Sen was amused and helpless, and asked directly: "A Teng, do you have a way to get a pass to Mine Planet A? If not, I will find a way to bring them back tomorrow."
"Okay!" Long Teng came back to his senses, his eyes glued to the black dragon, "It's really perfect, I will rush over as soon as possible, and I must arrive today!" As he said, he still stared at the screen and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Father, I want to go to Mine Planet A, right away."
"You little brat, you're just making up your mind. Are you going to move stones there? No arrangements!"
A handsome man appeared behind Long Teng, put his hand on Long Teng's shoulder, and said in a gentle voice: "A Teng, don't get so close to the screen. What are you doing at A Mine Star?"
"Dad," Long Teng turned his head and showed the screen. Xie Sen knew the man's identity immediately after hearing his name and greeted him quickly, "Hello, uncle."
An Ming was stunned when he saw the black dragon beside Xie Sen, and replied, "Hello." He turned his head and said, "Long Yu, quickly arrange for Ateng to go to Mine Star A.
There was dissatisfaction in Long Yu's low voice: "A Ming, you called me by my full name for this brat!" As he finished speaking, he came closer.
Xie Sen sighed at the good genes of the Longteng family and greeted them again: "Hello, uncle."
Long Yu looked at the black dragon with glowing eyes, and after a while he shifted his gaze to Xie Sen: "Hello." The next moment, he disappeared off the screen, and Xie Sen heard his voice ordering people to prepare the spacecraft and license.
"Aten, do you have the S-level contracted beast space confiscated with you?" An Ming asked.
Long Teng nodded: "Yes."
Xie Sen smiled. It seemed that Long Teng’s father had great confidence in Long Teng!
Long Teng stared at the black dragon for a long while before turning to the other two contracted beasts. He couldn't help but say, "So cool! Asen is so awesome! Be sure to ask me to go with you next time you go out. I want to go on adventures, but my father and the others won't let me go alone. I sneaked out several times but no one found me. Ahhh, I didn't meet the flying dragon beast with you guys. What a pity."
Seeing his annoyed look, Xie Sen couldn't help laughing. The book starts with Long Teng going out to travel. He did sneak out, and because of his poor sense of direction, he got into a lot of dangerous situations.
He nodded: "Okay, I'll tell you next time. If you have time, you can go together."
Long Teng smiled brightly. He stared at the black dragon's forehead for a long time: "What is this?"
Xie Sen did not hide anything and told him about the black dragon. Long Teng had seen the entire process of the red energy recovery and instantly understood the black dragon's situation. He turned to An Ming and said, "Dad, where is the shiny thing?"
"I'll go get ready."
Long Yu's men worked very quickly. Twenty minutes later, Long Teng was personally sent to the spaceport by Long Yu and An Ming and set off on a spaceship.
It was lunch time. Xie Sen accompanied Hei Long for a while, then went to have lunch with Maine.
The black dragon lay quietly on the ground, staring at the shiny mineral on his forehead, his mood very calm.
After lunch, Xie Sen went to check on the contracted beasts, making sure they were all fine, and went back to the bedroom to take a shower and prepare for a nap. Maine held him in his arms, stroking his face with his fingers. He grabbed Maine's hand and said, "Don't make a fuss. You were noisy enough last night. Take a rest. When you wake up, go check on the black dragons."
"Don't worry, they are very powerful and no one can hurt them." Maine lowered his head and kissed him on the forehead, then hugged him tightly, "Go to sleep."
Xie Sen closed his eyes, and opened them again after a while. Sure enough, he saw Maine still looking at him. He was helpless: "What's wrong?"
Maine was silent for a moment and shook his head: "It's okay."
Xie Sen's thoughts turned: "Did you think of anything because of seeing Sokto?"
Maine hugged him tightly in his arms and said in a deep voice: "You are not him... You will not be him, you will not lie to me."
Xie Sen hugged him back, feeling a little uneasy. Not everything he said to Maine was true. He had concealed some information about his background and identity.
"I like you," he said, "and I want to be with you forever. Just remember this."
Maine let go of him slightly and kissed him on the lips: "Well, I will always remember it, go to sleep."
Xie Sen was awakened by a scream. He suddenly opened his eyes and sat up. Maine patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, let's go out and take a look."
Xie Sen calmed himself down and went out with Maine. He met Huo Feng at the stairs and the three of them went downstairs together.
"Boss Huo," a mercenary standing at the door shouted, his face showing nervousness, "someone sneaked in and was dragged out by the giant python."
Xie Sen quickly ran to the door and saw a person wrapped in the giant python's tail, waving in the air. The person was screaming miserably. He was just woken up by this sound.
Tuantuan jumped and danced on the giant python's head, chirping non-stop, looking like a cheerleader.
A lot of people gathered outside the door to watch the fun, many of them with terrified looks on their faces.
Xie Sen quickly shouted: "Amang!"
The giant python turned its head to look at Xie Sen, then flew to Xie Sen's shoulder and landed, calling cheerfully.
Xie Sen approached the giant python beast, and someone shouted: "Don't go over there, it's dangerous."
Xie Sen ignored it, and the dangerous scene that the onlookers thought would happen did not occur.
The giant python's head came close to Xie Sen, and its tail continued to swing the man around, and the man's screams became weaker and weaker.
Xie Sen touched the giant python's head and said, "Let him go. If he continues like this, he might die."
The giant python's tail dropped to the ground and let the man go. The man fell to the ground with weak legs, then quickly got up and ran out. He was caught by the mercenaries hired by Huo Feng and thrown to the door.
The giant python rolled itself up, and the area it occupied instantly decreased a lot. Xie Sen asked, "What's going on?"
The python beast said, "He drugged me and wanted to do something bad!"
Xie Sen frowned and asked hurriedly, "Are you all right?"
"It's okay. Ajia has a keen sense of smell. He was spotted as soon as he sprayed the medicine."
Xie Sen felt relieved and whispered the giant python's words to Maine.
Maine walked up to the pale-faced man, stepped on his ankle without any hesitation, bent down, grabbed his collar, and quickly stripped him of his clothes.
Maine pulled off the necklace space backpack around his neck, opened the bracelet and operated it for a moment, unlocked the space backpack, and took out the things inside, a 500 ml can of spray and an A-level contract beast space buckle.
"Give it back to me!" The shirtless man tried to get his things back.
Maine kicked him away without any hesitation, turned on the spray and pointed it at him: "Want to use it on the contracted beast? Why don't you try it yourself?"
"No!!!" The man hurriedly covered his face, "I will die!"
Xie Sen said unhappily, "You use this on the contracted beasts, why don't you think about whether they will get into trouble?"
"They'll just be unconscious, nothing will happen to them." The man said hurriedly.
Maine held the space buckle between his fingers: "Want to knock them unconscious, then put them into the space buckle and take them away?"
The man shrank into a ball and dared not answer, but the facts were before him and it was useless for him to refute.
Xie Sen had never thought that someone would use this method to obtain a contracted beast, and he was very angry: "Contracted beasts are our companions and are protected by law. How could you do this?"
At this time, someone from the military came over: "I heard that a contracted beast hurt someone?" He pointed at the huddled man, then looked at the giant python beast, "What happened?"
Xie Sen quickly recounted the situation. The military questioned the people around them and checked the internal surveillance of the building, confirming that the man wanted to steal the contracted beast, so they took him away.
Xie Sen returned to the hall and still couldn't help being angry. At the same time, he couldn't help but worry: "Are there many people who treat their contracted beasts like this?"
Maine: "Not much. This is the method used by contracted beast dealers. It is the most dangerous method. Contracted beasts are powerful and it is easy for them to get into trouble. Although they will not actively attack humans, if they are attacked, they will resist without hesitation. Those who are discovered will have almost no chance of survival."
Xie Sen touched the giant python that was curled up beside him and said, "Is it because of us that he didn't kill anyone?"
"Yeah." The python beast said gently.
Xie Sen praised: "How clever."
He went to the basement to check on the black dragon and the giant armored beast. The two were lying on the ground, communicating in low voices, looking very leisurely.
Xie Sen touched their phosphorus armor one by one and praised the giant armored beast. The giant armored beast rubbed his hand and buried its head in his chest, still very shy.
At seven o'clock in the evening, Long Teng arrived at Mine Star A. He kept urging the driver along the way, and it took him an hour less than Xie Sen and his team.
Xie Sen and Maine went to the space port to pick people up in person. When Xie Sen saw Long Teng coming out of the exit, his mouth twitched. This was too dazzling!
Long Teng had a big, shiny gold chain hanging around his neck, and diamond bracelets wrapped around his arms from his wrists to his elbows. His clothes had cartoon patterns and a layer of jewels sewn on the surface. When he walked, he was dazzling.
"Are you... afraid that others don't know that your family is rich?" Xie Sen couldn't help but complain.
Long Teng touched the back of his head and smiled brilliantly, revealing his eight bright white teeth: "Didn't you say that Feilongmon likes shiny things? I wanted to wear glasses with silver reflective lenses, but my dad didn't let me because he was afraid I would fall."
Xie Sen thought it was a good thing he didn't wear it. Noticing the eyes looking at him from all sides, he grabbed Long Teng's arm and walked out: "Let's go quickly."
