Free Web NovelChapter 1019: Chapter 373: New S level Material_2
It seems that this stage is the final mission of this Instance.
But how should I deal with the problem of the Gun Cannon Beasts...?
Honestly, he had just arrived.
He didn’t even know what exactly had happened here.
All the Kung Fu Beasts around were too busy being startled to give him a detailed explanation.
[Kung Fu Beasts, 4 victories!]x2
At this time, as the adjudicators announced, the score between the two sides had reached 4:4.
Looking at Dragon Martial, who stood there like an old pine tree, Duke Pomegranate’s brows were tightly furrowed.
Even though the opponent’s aura had plummeted significantly, he still did not dare let his guard down.
After a moment of contemplation, he sent everyone away.
"Saint Officers, could it be...?"
Propping up his injured body, he made a bowing gesture toward the shadows behind him.
Saint Officer was the Gun Beasts’ term of respect for members of the Left Heart Sect.
Because in their eyes, these superiors were beings of holy power.
"Number 421, you’re up."
After a moment of silence in the shadows, the leading card player spoke.
"OK."
Then, a Gun Beast with a head resembling a howitzer emerged from within.
Without much conversation, the card player quickly arrived in front of Dragon Martial riding a mechanical dog.
Then, the two faced off, with no verbal exchange taking place.
From an outsider’s perspective, it appeared as if the Gun Beast suddenly raised its hand and shot out a beam of light.
"Apostle!" xN
This familiar action caused many high-ranking Kung Fu Beasts on the City Wall to rise from their seats in alarm.
Most of them had personally witnessed their colleagues being severely wounded or assassinated by Apostles using such methods.
"These Gun Beasts are so despicable and shameless! To actually send an Apostle into the fray!"
"And to target one of our injured ninth-dan powerhouses, no less!"
Some were tense, others were outraged.
However, the next second, they saw the Apostle himself inexplicably turn into a Blue Light and disperse.
As for Dragon Martial, he remained standing in his original spot, although his aura had become even more languid, clearly having been injured.
"Phew..." xN
This scene allowed everyone to breathe a sigh of relief.
After all, he was a ninth-dan heavenly powerhouse, an incredibly important and precious combat force.
If he were to be killed unclearly and unjustly by a Gun Beast Apostle, it would be too frustrating.
[Kung Fu Beasts, 5 victories!]x2
The adjudicator searched around for a while and, not finding any trace of the card player, loudly declared the result.
"Oh? Number 421 actually lost."
The Left Heart Sect’s spokesperson was clearly surprised.
"Chief Officer, let me go."
"No, let’s play it safe, number 378, you’re up."
"Yes!"
The Left Heart Sect didn’t play the tactic of sending out a slightly stronger individual each time.
Number 378 was their strongest card player, even stronger than the spokesperson.
But as number 378 rode the mechanical dog toward the battlefield, Dragon Martial, who had sensed something was wrong beforehand, decided not to continue the fight, and quickly returned to the City Wall before a new Apostle could be dispatched.
"Puh-ah!"
As soon as he steadied himself on the City Wall, he spat out a mouthful of blue blood.
The soldiers all inquired with concern, but he merely waved his hand to indicate he was alright.
The Apostle’s technique was truly strange, he had no idea what had happened in that instant.
He only knew that he had sustained a serious injury, and by the time he came back to his senses, the opponent had vanished.
"Please, revered figure, make your move."
Dragon Martial looked toward Ree Shil.
Revered figure?
The crowd, hearing this title, were all taken aback, then their gazes shifted in that direction.
What kind of identity could prompt Dragon Martial to call someone a revered figure?
General Zebra immediately guessed something.
It was rumored that when the Animal Zodiac Heads descended to the Human Realm, they often walked in the form of ordinary people.
It was said that the Zodiac Temple had ways to identify the walking Animal Zodiac Heads.
And wasn’t Dragon Martial from the Zodiac Temple?
"Alright, I’ll do it."
At this moment, Ree Shil nodded slightly, then descended the City Wall. freewebnovel.cσ๓
Just now, that card player was too late; he had already been taken out by Dragon Martial.
But seeing the big LV35 above the other party’s head, he actually wanted to exit the scene long ago.
During this time, he also inquired about some deeds related to the Gun Apostles through various channels, and he could basically conclude that these guys were undoubtedly from the Left Heart Sect.
Capturing a Level 35 of the Left Heart Sect should net him quite a lot of points.
"My friend, this isn’t the muddy water you should be wading into."
Seeing the one with LV20 coming over so arrogantly, No. 378 even tried to offer friendly advice.
Ree Shil didn’t reply to him, directly raising his hand and imprinting the mark of a card player onto him.
As before, he started with a double S-level card reveal in the 2nd round.
He found this move particularly effective against card players, as those who had never seen S-level cards at the card table were often unable to adapt to the pressure of facing two S’s and would just collapse on the spot.
But the opponent in front of him seemed different.
His eyes were fixed, his facial expression changed repeatedly, but in the end, he managed to hold on just before passing out.
However, that didn’t matter.
In the following, in the 3rd round, Ree Shil revealed [Blade Mantis Mother], and in the 4th round, [Blind Swordsman].
These two cards, too, were both strong DPS cards.
Paired with the double S combo of [Kung Fu Sheep God] + [Iron Stick], he easily won with a crushing output.
In everyone’s eyes, all they could see was the moment Ree Shil’s mark landed, No. 378 vanished into thin air.
"Is he also an Apostle?!"
Above the city wall, a crowd of Kung Fu Beasts exclaimed in shock.
"No, he’s the Sheep Zodiac Descendant!"
Dragon Martial said with a heavy voice.
...
A year later, within the Zodiac Temple.
"Out of the way, out of the way! Everyone, out of the way!"
A tall horse-headed man, carrying two cages, rushed through the temple: "Sheep Zodiac Head! I’ve caught two little creatures for you!"
Hearing his shout, people hurriedly stepped aside.
Because everyone knew that the Sheep Zodiac Head was fond of novel and special creatures.
Half a year ago, when the Sheep Zodiac Head returned to the Zodiac Temple, his first command was to collect creatures.
On the same evening as the Sheep Zodiac Head’s return, he was provided with the kingdom’s finest fresh vegetation.
The tender and juicy leaves were so tempting that the officials of the Sheep, Cow, and Horse divisions could hardly help swallowing saliva.
But the Sheep Zodiac Head did not touch them at all.
Thus, the officials thought that the Sheep Zodiac Head’s command was for consumption.
But soon they realized that after he simply touched these creatures, they no longer paid any attention.
Those touched by the Sheep Zodiac Head mostly appeared spiritless, some even at death’s door.
In their view, creatures that had been touched were blessed.
Therefore, they dared not eat or release them casually, so they kept them well-fed in the temple.
But it started from all sorts of livestock and then to monsters from the mountains.
Later, the demands of the Sheep Zodiac Head got higher and higher, requiring all kinds of rare and strange beasts, the rarer, the better.
To fulfill the Sheep Zodiac Head’s command, they scoured from south to north.
They even sent experts to sweep through the territories of the Gun Beasts.
Fortunately, the Sheep Zodiac Descendant deterred them soundly at the border and then led an array of heaven-class experts to purge all the Apostles claimed by the Gun Beasts.
So now the Gun Beasts are acting humbly as humans and, of course, do not dare to obstruct the Zodiac Temple’s people from collecting exotic creatures.
But the key point is that the number of creatures in the Zodiac Temple is increasing and has reached thousands.
Especially since some species are fierce, and some have huge sizes.
This caused complete chaos in the Zodiac Temple for a time, with every day being a complete mess.
To maintain order and care for the creatures, they had to temporarily close the temple to outsiders.
In the end, with no other choice, the officials had to establish a new mountain branch called the Sanctuary of Blessed Beasts.
"When will such days come to an end?" mused one official as he watched the horse-headed man rush into the backyard of the Sheep division.
However, what he didn’t know was that it would be today.
In the backyard, Ree Shil handled the cages handed over by the horse-headed man.
In one cage, there was something odd resembling a tadpole but with feathers.
The other cage contained a pumpkin with insect-like legs.
"You... did very well," he said, his tone excited as he praised the horse-headed man.
Because these two bizarre things were obviously not part of his collection yet.
His [Master of All Spirits] mission was just lacking 2 more creatures.
Today, the [Spirit Lord Red Dragon] will be upgraded to an S-rank card!
