Chapter 205 Big monster master
“It feels great to be out here. Let me plan my next destination.” Lin Fan rubbed his chin, thinking hard. He then took out the map and examined it closely.
This map is really great. It marks out every location in detail.
Dangerous sky valley, a place guarded by a Heaven Star Border Stage Two cultivator. It’s located close to where Lin Fan was currently.
I should stop joking around. Li Chongshan was already a formidable opponent. How long would it take for me to defeat the Heaven Star Border Stage Two elite, then? Maybe more than a year. Let me choose somewhere else.
But there doesn’t seem to be any nice places around! Nevermind, I guess I’ll take my time to earn some points and level up my skillsets. I heard that the Sunshine Sect is home to many beasts, and some weird beasts can’t be found in the Magnificent Flame Sect.
Whoosh!
Lin Fan turned into a ray of light and went somewhere far. In a dense forest, two bulky men could be seen sitting on a beast that was struggling by kicking its hoofs. But it was to no avail.
“Bring the metal chains and tie up its legs.”
“We’re so lucky to come across an Earth Star Border Stage Two beast. We will be able to earn quite a bit with it!”
After using all some strength, the men then managed to trap the beast. They knocked out the beast after that and threw it onto a cart. In the cart, two more beasts were lying inside. All of them had the cultivation of the Earth Star Border Stage Two.
“Who is it?” Suddenly, one of them turned around in surprise and shouted. The men heaved a sigh of relief when they realized that the other party was alone.
When Lin Fan was passing by the place when he came across a beast. Hungry, he killed the beast and went around looking for a suitable place to get it cooked. He did not expect to come across another person while searching.
They are obviously from the Sunshine Sect. Look at their clothing. A black robe with flames embroidered. That’s the uniform of a Sunshine Sect disciple!
“Who are you?” One of them shouted. When they saw the beast that Lin Fan was pulling behind him, their faces changed. It’s an Earth Star Border Stage Five beast!
It surprised both of them. They had not thought that the stranger would be able to take down an Earth Star Border Stage Five beast.
“Maimaiti Qiegao.”
It’s a great name. It makes me feel mysterious. And I dare not guarantee that my birth name, Lin Fan, was not a well-known name in the Sunshine Sect as it’s a name that symbolises a legend.
While both of them were still pondering over the name, Lin Fan approached them, dragging the beast behind him. He placed his left hand behind him and got ready to kill both of them.
But just before he could give them a punch each, he kept his mace back silently.
“Oh, so you’re Maimaiti Qiegao. Are you here to catch beasts to sell?” One of them said. After thinking long, the man still could not figure out where the name originated from. He has five characters in his name. Those from the Magnificent Flame Sect will either have two or three words in their name.
“Yes.” Lin Fan nodded calmly. Their words aroused his curiosity. Beasts for exchange? Sounds interesting.
“I’m called Wang Che, and he’s Gao Jianchou.” Wang Che said. Greed swam in his eyes as he looked at the beast behind Lin Fan.
However, if the other party was able to take down an Earth Star Border Stage Five beast, he must not be an ordinary cultivator. Both of us might be even considered as an easy target.
Lin Fan had long realized how they were looking at him. But I need to pretend that I’m one of them for now.
It would not be good if they find out that I’m not from around here.
“So? Should we go and exchange the beasts together?” Lin Fan asked.
“No, we still have to catch a few more.” Wang Che shook his head.
Lin Fan threw the beast he caught towards them. “I’ll give you this in exchange for your cart. Let’s go back together.”
Wang Che and Gao Jianchou were in a daze. They exchange glances and let out a shout. “Really?”
This is an Earth Star Border Stage Five beast! We will be able to get two mystic-high class pills in exchange for this beast! This beast was so valuable and the other party decided to just forego it?
“Yes. Do you want it? If you do, let’s go back together now.” Lin Fan said.
He’s currently confused. Where is this place? Why have I not seen it on the map? Did they leave it out?
“Okay.” Wang Che and Gao Jianchou carried the Earth Star Border Stage Five beast on their shoulders and passed Lin Fan the cart.
They have not expected things to happen way. We are really lucky today!
The three of them walked together. Wang Che and Gao Jianchou were obviously very excited.
The beast that Lin Fan caught was worth a lot to them!
As for Lin Fan, they weren’t suspicious that he was unusual. If we could trick him into being our helper, we would not have to fret about not being able to get beasts of such high grade anymore. After the sun sets.
Lin Fan was dumbfounded. How far are we? Why are we still not there yet?
“Mai….Maimaiti Qiegao, let’s rest here for tonight.” Wang Che said. After a long day, they were all beat.
Lin Fan nearly blurted out, “Aren’t we there yet?”. But if he did so, it would make him look like a foreigner. “Get on the cart. I’ll push you guys there. Let’s not our waste time here.” He said in a hurry. Wang Che and Gao Jianchou exchange a glance. They were a hundred per cent sure that Lin Fan was not in his right mind. If he was, why would he do this?
The other party sat on the cart happily, allowing Lin Fan to push them to their destination.
Sitting on the cart, both of them became more energetic.
“We are so lucky! If we give them this beast, we will be rich!”
“But that place is so scary. Every time I go, my heart throbs in fear. The screams coming from inside are terrifying!”
“How can it not be scary?” Wang Che bit his lips. “That’s the place where they conduct experiments with beasts. There was once I witnessed them fusing a Magnificent Flame Sect captive with a beast. He turned into a monster immediately! It was so terrifying! However, since it was a failure, the Big monster master killed it.”
Lin Fan pushed the cart forward, wearing a smile on his face. When the sky turned dark, Lin Fan’s smile turned creepy as well.
A ray of light shone down on them.
Lin Fan could see a building in front of him. It was made of weird-looking stones, and it had a creepy appearance. Screams and cries could be heard coming from inside.
Wang Che and Gao Jianchou jumped up in fear upon hearing the cries.
“That’s it. We are here. Monster city.” Wang Che shrieked. Chills ran down his spine every time he came to Monster city.
Lin Fan looked around him. So this is Monster city?
This does not even look like a city, but the home of devils. The smell of blood and beasts fill the air!
Wang Che and Gao Jianchou immediately picked up the beast and turned to Lin Fan. “Maimaiti Qiegao, we’ll be going now.” As soon as they finished their words, both of them rushed off, looking as if they were afraid of Lin Fan going back on his word.
Lin Fan smiled. I wonder what there in Monster city. I’ll need to do a thorough investigation of this place.
However, there’s quite a lot of people here to exchange the beasts they caught. Currently, Wang Che and Gao Jianchou were in the queue too. They were in a good mood, and they were currently chatting happily with others. Both of them could be seen pointing at Lin Fan from time to time. It was as if they were showing off how they got the Earth Star Border Stage Five beast from this fool.
On the other side was an empty queue.
“Big monster master’s assistant.”
He was only here for a reason, which was to find a chance to kill as much as he could. If nobody is queuing here, I should take a look at
Suddenly, Wang Che and Gao Jianchou who were chatting with others looked at Lin Fan in shock. Not only so, but they also looked slightly terrified too.
“What is he doing there?”
“Don’t tell me he’s going to apply to be a Big monster master’s assistant.”
“Shush. Lower your volume. If we disturb him and he leaves, we would be taken as a replacement for him.”
“Is he pretending to be a fool, or is he really one? That job isn’t survivable!”
*At the start, everybody thought that it was a powerful job. But they started to realize that the only condition to get accepted was to be human, and from time to time, they would start looking for another assistant.*
And those who applied for the job have all disappeared since then.
They were said to have died inside. There were stories that the Big monster master was insane. At times, he would randomly make a human beast hybrid. If there weren’t any slaves around, he’d make use of the assistant.
It was just a rumour, but everybody bought it.
Lin Fan came to the table. The person-in-charge of the applications had already fallen asleep.
“Big monster master’s assistant.” The person woke up immediately. He was filled with excitement when he saw Lin Fan. “Are you applying for the position?”
“Mhmm.” Lin Fan nodded. He had already come out with numerous reasons so that he wouldn’t get suspicious.
But what Lin Fan did not expect was that the other party accepted him immediately, without even asking any questions.
“Alright, come with me. You have passed the interview. You will be able to get a mystic-middle class pill every day. If you stay for more than seven days. You will get a mystic-high class pill every day.” The man said excitedly. He was happy that there’s an applicant after a month.
The thought of the scene inside made chills run down his spine. He would not want to continue staying at the place if not for the Sect’s order.
Lin Fan smiled. He’s currently curious about how scary the place is. However, could it be that the Big monster master was as scary as me?
It would not be a bad thing to try fighting someone who is just like me.
