Chapter 69

~4 min read 781 words

At this moment, Baiyi Town was covered with a layer of white bird droppings.

The buildings had not suffered major damage; the mutated sparrows were only interested in living creatures.

The wire mesh that once encircled the town above had been severely damaged—it would need to be completely reinstalled!

Too many mutated sparrows had passed through!

There were almost no corpses of mutated sparrows.

Ferocious beasts often eat even the corpses of their own kind…

A few mutated sparrows still remained in Baiyi Town; Su Yang continued to eliminate them with Storm Eagle.

After all, even a mosquito is meat.

Su Yang didn't mind having too much experience points.

Not long after, Wang Tianlang, captain of the beast-tamer patrol squad, was the first to emerge from the air raid shelter; he glanced around, then spotted Su Yang!

Wang Tianlang waved loudly and laughed: "Su Yang!"

Su Yang waved back at him, then continued eliminating the mutated sparrows.

Until all mutated sparrows inside Baiyi Town were wiped out, the townspeople should remain hidden in the air raid shelters.

After half a day's work, the patrol squad finally eradicated every last mutated sparrow in the town; after a thorough check, they contacted Qixing City and received confirmation that the alert was lifted.

As soon as Su Yang landed, Wang Tianlang rushed over and hugged him.

"Brother, thank you so much earlier!"

Su Yang laughed heartily: "No need to thank me—it's what we're supposed to do. We're comrades!"

In truth, if Wang Tianlang had abandoned the civilians, he still had a good chance of escaping.

"By the way, I just noticed—your Storm Eagle… seems much stronger!"

"During the battle just now, its strength improved!"

Wang Tianlang asked curiously: "What level?"

Su Yang replied: "Bronze level!"

This didn't need to be kept secret—he'd already planned to apply for early graduation.

His mother and sister staying in Baiyi Town were still in some danger.

He planned to move them into Qixing City.

In Qixing City, that Flame Giant had left a deep impression on Su Yang!

"Sssss~" Wang Tianlang sucked in a sharp breath. "Brother, you're not kidding me, are you?"

"Why would I lie to you? I'm planning to apply for early graduation from school!"

"What kind of talent do you have? If I remember right, you've only been at No. 1 High for a month?"

"I don't even know myself—the teachers at No. 1 High never said anything!" Su Yang shrugged, looking helpless.

That smug look made Wang Tianlang want to punch him.

But then he remembered Su Yang's eagle, now at Bronze level, and dropped the idea.

"I'm over thirty, and I'm still just a Bronze High-Grade beast-tamer…" Wang Tianlang covered his face. "You're terrifying! Compared to you, I feel like I've lived my whole life as a dog!"

This… Su Yang didn't know how to comfort him without seeming like he was showing off.

So he changed the subject: "Thanks earlier for reminding me to fly high—I might've been chased by those mutated sparrows otherwise!"

"No problem. You're just a new beast-tamer—you lack combat experience. You'll get better."

"Then, Captain, I'll go pick up my mom and sister!"

"Go ahead!"

The civilians in the air raid shelter were already lining up one by one to emerge.

Su Yang quickly spotted his mother and sister.

"Son, thank goodness—you're safe!"

Zhang Xiuru rushed to Su Yang and pulled him into her arms; his younger sister, Xiao Xiao, stood beside her brother.

"Mom, I'm fine!"

"Let me check—are you hurt?"

Zhang Xiuru finished speaking and moved to examine her son's body.

Su Yang laughed: "Mom, I'm fine. My pet can fly—it's amazing. Those mutated sparrows didn't even touch me."

"That's good, that's good!" Zhang Xiuru smiled. "Let's go home."

Su Yang's rooftop was also covered with a layer of bird droppings, which emitted a sour, foul stench—extremely pungent!

Seeing the droppings, Su Xiao's expression went wild.

She was a girl who loved cleanliness!

Zhang Xiuru sighed helplessly: "Looks like we've got a lot of cleaning to do."

"By the way, I have something to tell you."

Zhang Xiuru asked: "What is it?"

"In today's battle, my strength reached Bronze level. I want to apply for early graduation and bring you both to live in Qixing City."

"Really?" Zhang Xiuru stared wide-eyed at her son.

"Brother, are you serious?"

"Of course I am. Why would I lie to you?"

Su Xiao said, barely believing: "So… you mean we can live in the city from now on?"

"Yes—we're moving into the city!"

"Brother, you're amazing!" Su Xiao jumped up and threw herself into Su Yang's arms. "Really—you're the best!"

Zhang Xiuru smiled, but secretly wiped away tears.
