Chapter 96

"I've noted your name. My name is Hou Hou Lie. If you come to Liehuo City, you can come find me; I'll treat you to a drink!"

"My name is Cai Mingcheng, from Heguan City. When you reach Heguan City, you can mention my name!"

"..."

Su Yang said calmly: "Let's hurry and find the people. Once we find them, we'll retreat back to the Worm Train!"

"Alright!"

"Let's go!"

"..."

Huo Kun followed behind Su Yang, a gratified expression also appearing on his face.

He He Yingzhuo whispered in Huo Kun's ear: "Your Seven Star City has really produced a talent. Su Yang has a sharp mind, strong strength, and can keep a clear head in battle; he is a natural leader!"

"He still needs to be tempered!"

Although Huo Kun said this, the smile on his face could not be hidden.

Su Yang was a genius of their Seven Star City and a junior he valued.

Huo Kun was over forty and had long lost the desire to compete for dominance; seeing a junior succeed, he was mostly just happy.

After killing the three Seven-Colored Illusion Butterflies and scattering the Illusion Butterfly swarm, Su Yang's sense of smell returned to normal.

The twenty-plus beast tamers all followed behind Su Yang, killing ordinary Illusion Butterflies along the way. After passing through a street and killing two more Seven-Colored Illusion Butterflies, they finally stopped at the entrance of an underground parking lot.

The underground parking lot was pitch black, like a giant mouth, as if it were about to swallow everyone up.

Two emergency sensor lights were still on, emitting a greenish light.

Su Yang pointed to the underground parking lot and said: "They went inside!"

"I'll do it!"

Hou Hou Lie from Liehuo City stepped forward.

A ball of orange-red flame appeared before Su Yang.

[Name]: Flame Spirit

[Talent]:

1. Fierce Fire (Common); 2. High Temperature (Common).

[Growth Potential]: King-tier Mid-grade

[Strength Level]: Gold-tier High-grade

[Attribute]: Elemental-type, Fire-type

[Skills]:

1. Fireball; 2. Fire Tongue; 3. Fire Rocket; 4. Fire Wall; 5. Flame Eruption; 6. Sea of Fire; 7. Flame Explosion.

Su Yang rarely saw a Flame Spirit with growth potential reaching King-tier Mid-grade.

As soon as the Flame Spirit appeared, it completely illuminated the pitch-black underground parking lot!

"Let's go in!"

This time, Hou Hou Lie led the Flame Spirit in front.

The other Gold-tier beast tamers also took out their pet beasts that could emit light.

Su Yang also saw a Rare-tier Light-type Cloud Beast, which looked a bit like a cloud, floating in the air, its whole body emitting a soft white light. The white light felt warm and comfortable when it shone on people.

Su Yang reminded: "Be careful. This time, my Storm Eagle can't help. Pay attention to the silver-white scales on your hands; once cracks appear on the scales, it means we've likely encountered a Seven-Colored Illusion Butterfly!"

Entering the parking lot, the Storm Eagle in the clouds had no way to see through it.

"We understand!"

The vast majority of Gold-tier beast tamers are battle-hardened and experienced warriors.

Walking downhill, the stench of death became stronger and stronger, making Su Yang want to cover his nose.

Arriving at the underground parking lot, looking around, there were only scattered Black Iron-tier Illusion Butterflies.

The rest were almost all yellow-white cocoons the size of a person!

On every cocoon, there was a human stuck by white fluff.

Those people had all four limbs stuck to the cocoons, as if they were hugging them tightly.

Some cocoons were just empty shells, with a corpse stuck to each shell. The corpses had small holes in their skulls, and their deaths were miserable and twisted.

Su Yang scanned the area; the hundreds of cocoons densely packed before them were all cocoons of Illusion Butterflies and Seven-Colored Illusion Butterflies!

With a "pfft" sound.

A cocoon was broken open, and a tender young Illusion Butterfly slowly crawled out from it.

It slowly spread its wings, then extended its curled proboscis...

A wind blade flew past, and the head of that newly hatched Illusion Butterfly was sliced off.

"No Seven-Colored Illusion Butterflies here, let's rescue the people!"

Su Yang added: "We need to be on guard, just in case!"

In a place like this, one could never be too careful.

Those humans stuck to the cocoons all still had signs of life; almost all of them had just fallen unconscious.

The beast tamers quickly rescued them.

Because they were discovered in time and the Worm Train automatically closed, only about seventy people had gotten off the Worm Train.

Ge Le'an, Hua Da, and Peng Peng Anguo were also quickly found.

In addition to them, more than two hundred survivors from Qingshang City were also rescued.

After most people were woken up, they could move freely.

Only a small number of people had weak limbs because they had been trapped for too long without food.

Having rescued the survivors, the mission Wang Hong had given them was complete.

Some beast tamers saw so many cocoons and couldn't help but take one or two casually.

They couldn't tell the difference between Illusion Butterflies and Seven-Colored Illusion Butterflies, but they just felt that since they had come all this way, not bringing anything back felt like a loss.

If they happened to pick a Seven-Colored Illusion Butterfly cocoon, they would make a fortune!

What about Su Yang?

Of course, he wouldn't miss such an opportunity.

He was already a Gold-tier beast tamer, and the system had issued the mission to sign a fourth pet beast as usual.

However, to this day, his fourth pet beast had yet to be found.

This experience made him understand the power and importance of mental-type pet beasts.

Now that he had stumbled upon the nest of Seven-Colored Illusion Butterflies, how could Su Yang enter a mountain of treasure and return empty-handed?

Moreover, the strength of the Seven-Colored Illusion Butterflies was quite formidable.

Signing one would be perfect to make up for Su Yang's shortcomings in the mental department.

Su Yang looked at the choices of the other beast tamers; they were unlucky and had all picked ordinary Illusion Butterflies!

Of course, Su Yang wouldn't go and remind them.

He carefully scanned the thousands of cocoons densely packed in the underground parking lot and finally selected four to put into his space pouch.

All four were Seven-Colored Illusion Butterflies with growth potential reaching the Platinum-tier!

Such rare mental-type fierce beasts with Platinum-tier growth potential could be sold for money or given away; the more, the better!

Huo Kun was holding an Illusion Butterfly egg, looking at Su Yang with envy: "Having a space pouch is just convenient!"

"Captain, do you need me to help you carry them?"

If he squeezed a bit, he could barely fit another cocoon.

Huo Kun waved his hand in refusal: "No need, no need. If you have space, carry more; maybe if luck strikes, you'll make a fortune!"

Su Yang casually carried an ordinary Illusion Butterfly egg.

The Seven-Colored Illusion Butterfly eggs in the underground parking lot had all been picked by him...

Seeing that all the beast tamers had picked cocoons, Su Yang said: "Let's kill these cocoons!"

"Alright!"

The twenty-plus Gold-tier beast tamers acted together, and those defenseless cocoons were soon wiped out.

Su Yang also killed a few, but when he discovered that these cocoons only had Black Iron-tier strength, he didn't put as much effort into it.

After destroying all the cocoons, the group slowly exited the underground parking lot and returned the way they came.
