The Lion King tilted his head toward a nearby teammate and asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph, we’re not deaf.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flower Scorpion followed coldly, “That deafening sound—it’s just like the Thunder Type-2 Revolver, and there were two consecutive shots.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Was it Ten Thousand Snakes?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Doghead asked thoughtfully from the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It should be him. No one else has been seen carrying that kind of firearm lately.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And with the power he showed before, only he could fire twice in such quick succession.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps because Flower Scorpion had witnessed the might of the Thunder Type-2 Revolver before, she understood its power better than the others. Her expression turned grave as she voiced her deduction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Should we keep exploring?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A small, thin man with a moustache—Mole—spoke up hesitantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing his question, the others hesitated. They knew the Doomsday Ruins were dangerous, but they hadn’t expected to feel such a strong sense of peril on just the first floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lion King, what do you think?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flower Scorpion turned to their captain. After all, only his beast could unleash such explosive power in a short time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a brief moment of thought, the Lion King finally said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Everyone knows deep down that the inheritance within this ruin isn’t something we can hope for. We came in with a bit of luck in mind.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Since it’s so dangerous, we’ll just explore the first floor. We’ve already collected quite a few valuable items.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Besides, with so many people entering the ruins, any dangers on this floor will soon be exposed anyway. What do you all think?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group exchanged glances. Though reluctant, they knew his words were true, and they could only nod in agreement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing their consent, the Lion King quickly issued orders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mole, your beast has a special sensory ability. You’ll be fully in charge of scouting the surroundings. The rest of us will ensure your safety.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Understood.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, Mole agreed. As the one with a sensing beast, he was a top-priority member for protection—there was no reason to refuse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that settled, the group, equipped with night vision goggles, stopped heading toward the second level of the ruins and began searching the empty rooms around them instead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, as Zhou Ming eliminated the ambushing desiccated corpses, the intensity of battles across the ruins began to rise noticeably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The news about the zombies also started spreading among the Beast Tamers and hunters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Radar Sensory Domain can still detect zombies hiding in the dark, but it can’t pick up the Ironthread Snake. Seems I’ll need to slow down.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a corridor, Zhou Ming muttered quietly as he glanced at a headless zombie on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having focused most of his attention on the Radar Sensory Domain, Zhou Ming finally noticed a faint green dot—an almost unnoticeable one—revealing the lurking Leopard-headed Zombie before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once prepared, the fight was much easier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After confirming the area was clear, Zhou Ming resumed moving toward his target. Though his pace was slower, everyone else was equally affected by the zombie threat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks to his Radar Sensory Domain, Zhou Ming actually became the first to reach the entrance leading down to the second level of the ruins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the base was first constructed, several stairway passages had been built besides the elevator, as a safety measure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through his Serpent Pupils, Zhou Ming spotted a three-meter-tall passage ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After centuries, the metal door had collapsed, leaving only a gaping, abyss-like entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uncertain of what awaited below, Zhou Ming didn’t rush in. Instead, he sent his serpent swarm ahead to scout.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the serpents could enter the passage, a piercing beam of light shone from a distant hallway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Ming immediately recalled the serpents and hid in the shadows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moments later, a five-man team arrived—one of them sitting atop his beast, holding a large searchlight aloft.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arrogant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was Zhou Ming’s first impression of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they drew closer, he observed their condition. All five were wearing Saint Elephant Type-2 Combat Suits—the same advanced gear Scorpion-Lion had once used, resistant to ordinary firearms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each also wore a sturdy helmet, and their beasts were all at the peak of Low-rank Ferocious Beast level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They might not be unstoppable, but few would dare provoke them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder they dared to use a searchlight so blatantly—they were clearly from a major faction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Looks like our luck’s good. We’re the first ones here,” one of them said cheerfully as he looked at the untouched layer of dust on the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boss, are we really going straight in? Those zombies we fought earlier were no joke—what’s waiting on the second level could be worse.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Frowning, one of them voiced his concern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Relax, Da Zhuang hasn’t even made a move yet.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, the leader turned and called out to a towering, two-meter-tall man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Da Zhuang, you’ll lead the way this time. Don’t worry about ammunition.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Got it. Leave it to me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead of displeasure, Da Zhuang’s voice carried excitement at the order.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was when Zhou Ming finally saw him clearly—a muscle-bound giant of a man, like a living titan, stepping out from behind them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A massive ammo box was strapped to his back, and he held a Hive-Type I Heavy Machine Gun in his hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was Zhou Ming’s instant thought. His entire body tensed, ready to flee at a moment’s notice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hive-Type I Heavy Machine Gun wasn’t a normal handheld weapon—it was mounted on armored vehicles as a heavy-fire armament.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Except for high-tier Ferocious Beasts capable of manipulating elemental energy particles, no low-tier beast could withstand its roar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And judging by what their leader said, Zhou Ming guessed this elite team had been supplied with spatial gear, likely packed with enough ammunition to sustain them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The weapon was powerful—but it devoured bullets like no other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Ming waited, breath held, until the five figures vanished into the pitch-black passage. Only then did he dare to breathe freely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing such a metallic storm, he knew there was only one option—run for his life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, he might just end up as minced flesh plastered across the tunnel walls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After ensuring they had truly left, Zhou Ming still didn’t enter immediately. He wasn’t about to risk walking into an ambush.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only after waiting a while did he send his serpents ahead to probe the stairway. Finding nothing unusual, Zhou Ming finally followed, descending toward the second level of the ruins.\u003C\u002Fp>",1089,"2026-06-06T06:20:25.930Z",1,"novelbin.me","92b412cc7e28c4c482755c5c28e606a13db4420a0c85fdf038e0a50f26e589a9","beast-taming-sequence-evolution-chapter-97","beast-taming-sequence-evolution-chapter-95",251,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbeast-taming-sequence-evolution-cover.jpg"]
