The four patrolled honestly...
It wasn't until deep into the night that the new students returned to their respective stone houses.
The moon was bright and the stars were sparse.
Dozens of Spirit Quelling Army soldiers were scattering special powders around the stronghold.
With only a few days left, if they wanted the students to experience the responsibilities of the Spirit Quelling Army, they could only manually lure fierce beasts.
The next morning,
The new students began their missions again.
Although they did not have to patrol at night, the twelve-hour workload during the day was still substantial.
"Just a few more days, and military training will be over!"
Chen Shu was not used to this lifestyle and began to miss school.
"Careful!"
At this moment, a yellowish-brown leopard emerged from behind the rocks and lunged forward with extreme speed.
Roar!
A' Liang's Thunder Ape stomped forward, extending its hands and grabbing it.
The power of lightning erupted, paralyzing it. Immediately after, it was subjected to brutal beatings.
Although both sides were at level nine, one was just an ordinary fierce beast, while the other was an S-class contracted spirit, so the difference was naturally immense.
"That's strange!"
Wang Jue spoke, "This is the third fierce beast we've encountered this morning. There usually aren't so many suicidal ones."
"It's normal. Since we're performing the duties of the Spirit Quelling Army, fierce beasts are bound to appear."
Chen Shu said, "Otherwise, wouldn't they just let us wander around like idlers?"
A' Liang nodded, "That's right. The instructors must have taken some measures to attract fierce beasts."
The four of them appeared bored. Ordinary fierce beast hordes posed no threat to them.
They didn't even need Chen Shu to make a move.
As days passed,
Wang Zhenlong and the others kept a close watch on the new students, in case any powerful fierce beasts appeared.
"The students this year are indeed good."
Wang Zhenlong murmured. Their talent and combat experience were both superior to the students of previous years.
"Should I stir things up a bit?"
He was a Gold-tier Beast Tamer and could easily handle any problems that arose.
Even a Black Iron-tier Monarch was no match for him.
"You guys guard the stronghold, I'll take a trip!"
Wang Zhenlong stroked his chin and left on his Golden Giant Tiger.
However, he still left a contracted spirit at the stronghold to guard against any unexpected events.
Wang Zhenlong rode the giant tiger towards the depths of the [Barren Stone Mountain Forest].
He planned to capture the cubs of lord fierce beasts to lure the beast hordes.
If they didn't create some sense of crisis, the students would think that the work of the Spirit Quelling Army was easy!
"The work of the Spirit Quelling Army is not difficult, it's truly easy and enjoyable!"
Chen Shu and the others appeared relaxed, chatting and patrolling.
Once a crisis occurred, the contracted spirits beside them could resolve it immediately.
"Should I look for some excitement?"
Chen Shu stroked his chin, a thoughtful look in his eyes.
At this moment, options appeared before Chen Shu.
[Option 1: Patrol honestly and finish military training successfully! Completion Reward: Moderate Beast Taming Power]
[Option 2: Use 'Luring Agent' within the stronghold to make the storm come even stronger! Completion Reward: Elemental Beast Fire attribute +10%, Slime size +10%]
[Option 3: Wang Zhenlong is not at the stronghold, explore the warehouse again! Completion Reward: Clone Skill +1]
Chen Shu was slightly taken aback, and his eyes immediately lit up.
He immediately grasped the key point: Wang Zhenlong was not at the stronghold?!
Not only could he gain resources, but his divine skill [Clone] could be increased by one more, which was invaluable!
"Three of you, wait a moment!"
A smile played on Chen Shu's lips as he spoke, "I think we can explore the warehouse again!"
"Are you crazy?"
The three of them widened their eyes, having never seen anyone so reckless.
"I've received the latest news, the chief instructor has temporarily left the stronghold!"
Chen Shu rubbed his hands together and said, "It's time for us to show off!"
"Are you... sure?!"
The three of them spoke in unison, their eyes filled with extreme doubt.
At the same time, they extended their right hands, pointing in the direction of the warehouse.
Chen Shu was slightly taken aback, he looked back, and immediately his body trembled.
A giant green turtle was floating in mid-air, looking extremely lazy, its gaze occasionally glancing over.
It had received orders from Wang Zhenlong.
Its first task was to guard Chen Shu and the other three, and its second task was to defend against fierce beasts...
"Damn it!"
Chen Shu's mouth twitched. The system actually wanted to trick him?
Wang Zhenlong was indeed not at the stronghold, but there was a Gold-tier contracted spirit!
"Forget it!"
Chen Shu shook his head, and with a slight movement of his right hand, a bottle of blue potion appeared.
It was the luring potion he had obtained during the Beast Taming Association interview.
Obviously, its effect was to attract monsters.
But its actual effect might be a little intense...
System products, guaranteed to be high-quality!
His thoughts coincided with Wang Zhenlong's; both wanted to do something exciting.
But the intensity of their actions was not on the same level!
"Don't choose for now, we need to ask Instructor Wang!"
Chen Shu didn't act impulsively. If the fierce beasts were too numerous and the other party couldn't handle them, then this stronghold would essentially be lost.
The others would finish military training and return to school, but he would be sent back to prison as soon as it ended. Wouldn't that be absurd?
At this moment, an ordinary-looking middle-aged man arrived at the [Barren Stone Mountain Forest].
He held a special instrument in his hand, on which a red light was constantly flashing, seemingly guiding the direction.
Deep within Chen Shu's combat backpack, a USB drive also responded.
It was the USB drive obtained from the Dark Night organization.
He had never paid attention to it, just casually placed it in his backpack.
"Is it within the stronghold?"
The middle-aged man's eyes were indifferent. He turned to look at the giant green turtle, his face showing a hint of apprehension.
Finally, he temporarily left the stronghold, choosing not to act on the spot.
In the evening,
Wang Zhenlong returned to the stronghold riding the golden giant tiger, with several fierce beast cubs in his hands.
"Get ready to watch the show!"
Wang Zhenlong threw the severely injured cubs into a stone house, leaving a trail of clues along the way.
Tomorrow, there would likely be a beast horde attack!
"Instructor Wang!"
At this moment, Chen Shu and the other three, who had finished their patrol, found Wang Zhenlong.
"Hmm? What is it?"
Wang Zhenlong came out of the stone house and looked at the three of them.
Chen Shu rubbed his hands together and said, "I mean, if a large number of fierce beasts come, can you handle it?"
"It's not that I doubt your strength, but the fierce beasts are too brutal!"
"Who are you mocking, you brat?!"
Wang Zhenlong said, "As a Gold-tier Beast Tamer, what kind of beast hordes have I not seen? Moreover, my giant turtle can cast a protective shield to defend the entire stronghold."
His gaze was strange. Wouldn't these kids realize his plan?
"But now you are the Spirit Quelling Army. Any fierce beasts that appear need to be faced by you! This is the duty of the Spirit Quelling Army!"
"Don't worry, Instructor!"
Chen Shu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. It seemed he could use the luring potion.
He only wanted to obtain rewards, and at the same time, to add some gains to the students' military training.
And also... to satisfy his desire to cause trouble.
The four of them turned to leave. Chen Shu did not use it immediately. It was already evening, and using it during the day would be best.
Wang Zhenlong murmured, "These kids, won't tomorrow's beast horde scare them to death?"
