Chapter 52: Violent Bear Mercenary Group! The blood-stained bullet head!
"Just because you can't do it doesn't mean Su Yang can't!" Wu Wu Yuqing said from the side. "Also, how many Violent Crocodiles Su Yang actually killed, won't we know by looking at his harvest today?"
"That's true!"
"Let's see!"
"Exactly, we'll know once we see!"
"..."
Other beastmasters of the First Squad also said with a smile.
"Alright!"
Su Yang opened the bag and poured all the water-blue beast cores inside onto the grass.
Violent Crocodiles were water-attribute beasts, and their cores also appeared water-blue.
Beastmasters were extremely sensitive to the grade of beast cores and could distinguish the energy fluctuation levels of the cores.
"Whoa~"
"There really are a lot!"
"Most of them are Bronze-grade."
"Su Yang is truly amazing!"
"When I was Bronze-grade, I was nowhere near as good as Su Yang!"
"..."
When Sang Sang Yue first saw Su Yang's harvest, he couldn't quite believe it, but then he felt relieved.
He said with a chuckle: "I said it, didn't I? A beastmaster who can defeat me, Sang Sang Yue, how could he be an ordinary person?"
"Such thick skin, always trying to gild your own face!"
"..."
Just then, Wu Wu Yuqing smiled: "Su Yang, if you relied solely on that Earth Violent Bear of yours, it would definitely be impossible to kill so many Violent Crocodiles. Your other pet beast shouldn't be simple either, right?"
Su Yang smiled: "Its strength is alright!"
"Is it a flying-type pet beast?"
"Yes!"
Just as Su Yang finished washing up and was lying on his bed in the military camp to rest, a group of people had also surrounded the place where he had killed the people earlier.
"Captain Tong, we have found the corpses of your nephew and the other brothers!"
"Did you find anything out?"
"They were all killed by a flying-type beast!" said the beastmaster dressed as a mercenary. "From the traces at the scene, the strength of that beast is likely Silver-grade. Other than that, we didn't find any traces; even the Gold Hound couldn't smell any other special scents!"
Captain Tong was over forty, with dark skin and a tall, burly build.
Seeing the fragmented corpses of his nephew, he was also very heartbroken.
After all, they were relatives!
It was his younger brother's only son!
"Do you think this could have been done by a beastmaster?"
The beastmaster of the Violent Bear Mercenary Group hesitated and said:
"This possibility cannot be ruled out. This is the outskirts of Mount Mount Qixing; Silver-grade beasts rarely appear here. Tong Tong Difei and Old Long have always been cautious and prudent in their actions; they shouldn't have easily provoked a powerful beast!"
"Moreover, recently Tong Tong Difei and Old Long have been doing some killing and looting together; perhaps they ran into some tough nut to crack!"
"In that case..." Captain Tong closed his eyes and issued an order: "Track Tong Tong Difei's escape route, find the location where they stayed for a long time, and then search the vicinity for any traces of a battle between a beastmaster and a beast!"
"Understood!"
A Gold Hound, half a person tall and covered in golden-yellow fur, was brought out.
The Gold Hound sniffed Tong Tong Difei's corpse for a while, then barked "Woof woof" twice, and led the members of the Violent Bear Mercenary Group toward the dense mountain forest.
Soon, they found the place where Tong Tong Difei and the others had stayed for a long time and discovered a bullet casing at the scene.
Captain Tong, Tong Tong Yaoyun, picked up the bullet casing and looked toward the Violent Crocodile Beach, just in time to see a few crocodiles gnawing on the corpses of their own kind.
"Go, see if the beast cores of those Violent Crocodile corpses have been dug out!"
"Alright!"
Soon, the intelligence came back: the beast cores of those Violent Crocodile corpses were gone! ===== CHAPTER 102 =====
They also found a blood-stained bullet head at the scene.
Everything was clear now.
These experienced mercenaries quickly guessed the general course of events.
Tong Tong Difei and Old Long had fired a cold shot at a beastmaster, then angered that beastmaster and were killed in retaliation!
"Have the Gold Hound remember this scent, we will continue the search!" Tong Tong Yaoyun said with a cold face. "No matter who it is, whoever killed my nephew must pay with their life!"
"Yes, Vice-Captain!"
The Violent Bear Mercenary Group followed the traces of Su Yang's battle from the day before, and then they saw the military camp of the Seven Star City reclamation troops.
At the entrance of the military camp was a crude little street.
This little street had also just been established; it was crooked and had a few shops, all to earn money from the Seven Star City soldiers.
"Vice-Captain, what should we do?"
Tong Tong Yaoyun's face turned gloomy; how could he not know that the person who killed his nephew was likely inside this military camp.
But seeing the armed guards at the entrance of the camp, reason told him not to act rashly.
"Tomorrow morning, bring the Gold Hound, and we'll block him near here!" Tong Tong Yaoyun said through gritted teeth. "We can't make a move for now; we just need to know who struck first!"
The next morning, Su Yang woke up a bit late.
Having killed someone for the first time yesterday, his mind was full of images of those corpses.
He tossed and turned in bed, only falling asleep in the early hours of the morning.
After waking up, the sun was already high, and after eating a hearty breakfast in the cafeteria, he arrived at the camp entrance.
Su Yang saw a Silver-grade beastmaster summon a Black-Feather Wind Eagle, jump directly onto its back, and soar into the sky.
Su Yang hesitated for a moment, then followed suit, summoning the Storm Eagle to head toward the location where the Bronze Cattle herd lived.
Not long after Su Yang left, someone appeared on the crude street outside the military camp gate. ===== CHAPTER 103 =====
