Chapter 33: Meeting Bai Yang Again
Baicao Valley!
Unlike the previous experience, this time he did not need to walk to the valley. Using the Shadow Boots, he reached his destination in less than two hours, covering a distance of 30 kilometers.
The valley was shrouded in a layer of silence in the middle of the night, appearing particularly eerie and terrifying. The moonlight barely penetrated the clouds, casting strange light and shadows.
There were traces of a huge creature being dragged on the ground. Standing on the edge of the valley, Xu Mu could vaguely hear a faint and heart-pounding trembling sound coming from deep in the valley.
"There is indeed a problem." After seeing this scene, Xu Mu was 100% sure that there was a big problem in Baicao Valley.
In all likelihood, it was related to the Bo disaster.
His figure was hidden in the shadows, and he moved forward cautiously. Not long after, he arrived at the entrance of the cave where the Phantom Wolf had been hiding before.
Just as Xu Mu was about to enter the cave, a familiar curse came from deep inside the cave.
"How slow! Are there only a few?"
"It's all that damn Xu Mu's fault. If he hadn't killed my Phantom Wolf, would I have needed to command a bunch of useless rubbish like you?"
"I asked you to catch a few giant-eyed fishy rats but it was useless. You deserve to become black beasts!" This was Bai Yang's voice, and it was full of anger.
Xu Mu was stunned for a moment. He never expected to meet that bastard Bai Yang here. It was late at night and the only sounds in the valley were Bai Yang's cursing and the digging sounds of the giant-eyed rat.
There would be no third person here, and a sentence involuntarily emerged in his mind - it's a dark and windy night, a night for murder!
God arranged for them to meet tonight, so he would definitely not let Bai Yang go.
"The tunnel excavation work cannot be completed in a short time. We need more giant-eyed fishy rats."
Bai Yang's gaze went deep into the cave, where several giant-eyed rats were digging tunnels under the threat of the black beast.
Several days of continuous digging have made these giant-eyed rats exhausted. Their eyes are bloodshot, and they are gasping for breath with their mouths full of sharp teeth open. The digging speed has obviously slowed down a lot compared to the beginning.
"This batch of giant-eyed fish rats is no longer useful. We must replace them with new ones tomorrow so as not to delay the excavation work." Bai Yang frowned and muttered a few words.
From the moment he caught them, the fate of these giant-eyed rats was sealed; they would die in the hard work of digging tunnels.
The giant-eyed rats he caught would have no food, no water, and certainly no rest time.
Under the supervision of the black beast, they would dig without sleep, and eventually die of exhaustion, starvation, or simply become the black beast's food.
There are as many low-level monsters as the giant-eyed rat near Bo City as you want. Once this one dies, just find the next one.
The only trouble was that the black beast's efficiency in catching giant-eyed rats was far inferior to that of his ghost wolf beast, and his ghost wolf beast was killed by Xu Mu during the training.
Although the new summoned beast has been found, it will still take some time to tame it. Before taming the new Phantom Wolf Beast, we can only use useless things like the Black Beast.
"Poor Mouse! Mouse probably never dreamed that there would be a day when he would be exploited by humans."
"who!"
Bai Yang was startled and immediately recalled the black beast, looking warily towards the source of the sound.
He didn't see the person coming, but he saw two purple-red lightning marks flying towards him, each turning into a giant python and attacking the black beasts around him.
Intense lightning flashed in the dark cave, dispelling the darkness all around.
The visitor was a lightning wizard, and his magic skills were extremely powerful. With just one strike, he electrocuted the black beast to death, leaving it burnt on the outside and tender on the inside.
"Black beast, come on!"
Seeing that the other party was hiding in the dark and not coming out, Bai Yang decisively gave the order. If he didn't come out, he would let the black monster take the initiative to attack!
Even if there was a black beast that could kill him in an instant, he was not afraid at all. After all, he had a total of eight black beasts. If two of them died, he still had six to use!
There are six black beasts. Even if the city beast hunting team of Bo City comes, they will perish!
Unless the other party is a mid-level mage, but how could a mid-level thunder mage come to this damn place like Baicao Valley in the middle of the night?
However, what he didn't expect was that the Thunder Mage hiding in the dark seemed to cast magic without any reading bar, and was able to release lightning pythons continuously.
What Bai Yang didn't know was that with the bonus of doubling the release speed, Xu Mu had already learned the Star Track with a Single Thought, and could release magic instantly without having to cast a spell or read a spell bar.
Unless the black beasts can move in front of him instantly, these black beasts are nothing to be afraid of.
Just as the six black beasts rushed out a few steps, three lightning pythons arrived one after another and quickly eliminated the three black beasts in front. Suddenly, only three black beasts were left in the cave. The three black beasts were obviously frightened by the sudden and continuous terrorist attacks, and they stood there motionless for a while.
"Black beast, come back!"
Bai Yang showed fear on his face and gave orders in a panic. With such a fast spell casting speed, the opponent was definitely not a beginner level wizard, but must be a mid-level wizard!
In this godforsaken place, in the middle of the night, there was actually a mid-level lightning mage? !
The black beast received the order and was about to run back to Bai Yang when another bolt of lightning suddenly struck and hit one of the black beasts accurately, completely destroying it.
"Who are you? I don't remember there being a mid-level thunder magician with spiritual seeds in Bo City!" Bai Yang said to the person in the dark with a gloomy face.
First, the Phantom Wolf was defeated by a student, and then eight black beasts were destroyed by an unknown thunder mage. The combat effectiveness of the only two remaining black beasts had been greatly weakened.
"Long time no see, Instructor Bai Yang."
Xu Mu's figure slowly walked out of the darkness, holding a condensed lightning mark in his hand. While speaking, he did not forget to throw the mark at the black beast.
Another lightning python flew out swiftly. The chosen black beast sensed the danger, roared loudly and ran away in a hurry, but failed to escape. It was hit accurately by the lightning and was instantly destroyed.
"There's another one!" Xu Mu narrowed his eyes and quickened the pace of casting magic.
"Xu Mu! It's you!"
When he saw that the person coming was Xu Mu, Bai Yang gritted his teeth, feeling both surprised and frightened.
He was surprised that Xu Mu appeared here in the middle of the night, giving him a chance to take revenge.
But he was also afraid of Xu Mu's strength. He could kill the black beast in one strike, and judging from the speed of his spell release, it was clear that he had mastered the star track in one thought.
He has learned the Star Track in One Thought at the initial stage. What an outrageous talent!
First, it was training to slaughter his ghost wolf beast, and now it has eliminated all of his black beast monsters, disrupting his mission plan. If he had the ability to fight, he would have rushed up to fight Xu Mu.
After easily dealing with the last black beast, Xu Mu turned to Bai Yang with a cold gaze and said, "Instructor Bai Yang, it's your turn."
"What do you want to do? If you attack the military magician without authorization, you will be wanted by the military. Do you want to go against the country?" Bai Yang took a few steps back and shouted loudly.
The identity of the Black Vatican has been exposed. It depends on whether they can use the military's identity to suppress Xu Mu, a student who is not in tune with the world.
Xu Mu was too lazy to say more. He took a few steps forward and knocked Bai Yang down with a punch. Then he grabbed Bai Yang by the collar and walked into the pit.
"What do you want to do?" Bai Yang's voice was obviously trembling and fearful.
As he was getting closer and closer to the pit, he felt uneasy and began to struggle frantically, but was shocked by Xu Mu's lightning and calmed down.
He couldn't be honest. He wanted to continue resisting, but his body was paralyzed and he couldn't move even if he wanted to.
"doing what?"
"The rats are so pitiful, being exploited inhumanely by you. It's not too much for me to compensate them with some food, right?" Xu Mu grinned and pointed at the giant-eyed fishy rats below with a smile.
"Food...food?" Bai Yang was still a little confused.
Where is the food here?
Wait... Bai Yang seemed to react. He widened his eyes and looked at Xu Mu in disbelief.
This guy wants to feed himself to the giant-eyed rat as food? He is so vicious at such a young age. Who is the follower of the Black Church?
"You don't think I'll throw you to Zhan Kong for interrogation, do you?" Xu Mu asked with some surprise.
"You can't do this to me... I... I am a military magician, I... I have shed blood for my country and... have made contributions!" Bai Yang begged for mercy in panic.
He was still alive, and he didn't want to die, and he didn't want to be thrown to the giant-eyed rats as food while he was still alive.
"I want to see Zhan Kong. You are just a student. You have no right to deal with me."
