Chapter 91

The entire training ground began to tremble.

And a massive, deep crater appeared beneath Qin Bei’s feet.

Still inside the crater.

A figure like a dead fish.

Was twitching its body.

Red and black blood dripped continuously.

Severed tentacles were scattered around him.

"So strong. That... that seventh-rank fierce beast, did you kill it?"

The Cleaner twitched his body, barely stood up, and looked at Qin Bei to ask.

Qin Bei remained silent, picked up the briefcase blade again, and then walked toward the Cleaner step by step.

"It doesn't matter if you don't say it; I already have an idea in my heart."

The Cleaner chuckled.

"The mission... is about to be completed."

Puchi!

Qin Bei stabbed the Cleaner directly in the heart with his sword.

Pu!

The Cleaner spat out a large mouthful of blood that dripped onto the ground.

His body swayed and then fell backward.

"Mission completed... what does that mean?"

Qin Bei muttered to himself.

Suddenly! The body of the Cleaner who had just died was actually emitting black smoke.

Strange sounds were coming from within it.

Qin Bei frowned slightly!

This sound... sounded very dark.

Qin Bei unknowingly began to feel dazed.

"Faith... faith in you... faith in you?"

"Faith in you? Are you worthy?"

Qin Bei suddenly snapped out of it.

Then, his tone was disdainful, and his expression was extremely ferocious.

This ghost of a thing, whatever it was.

Actually wanted to bewitch him.

Qin Bei directly raised the briefcase sword and slashed straight at the black mist in front of him.

The thick black mist scattered in all directions.

Gradually, it clung to Qin Bei’s body.

Puchi, puchi.

Sparks flew everywhere.

Qin Bei’s body couldn't help but retreat.

And the black mist gradually dissipated.

Within the mist.

A bizarre-looking monster appeared.

To be precise.

It was a monster beneath a human body.

The Cleaner’s human body was floating in the air.

But the head had opened up like a flower petal.

Revealing a small, red, skull-like head.

The original head had bloomed into a red flower, and the petals were covered in dense, sharp teeth.

And the Cleaner’s body, floating in mid-air.

The spine on his back.

Had split open.

Eight tentacles were waving continuously.

As for the legs, they had turned into black smoke.

So bizarre.

It no longer looked like a human at all.

"Sss~"

The red bone inside the petals opened its mouth.

It spat out a puff of black gas.

It touched the equipment on the training ground.

The equipment actually rotted away instantly.

Qin Bei smacked his lips.

This thing, everything about it is wrong.

Now it can't even speak.

It probably shouldn't be considered human anymore.

Swish!

The black tentacles turned directly into black lightning and approached Qin Bei.

Qin Bei tilted his body slightly, and the black tentacles grazed his chest armor.

Then they smashed into the ground.

A deep crater appeared.

There was still blue smoke floating in the black crater.

"Covered in poison from head to toe; I can't let it touch me, or it will hurt like hell."

Qin Bei’s thoughts raced.

And the remaining tentacles also attacked him.

Qin Bei jumped up violently.

He reached a height of a hundred meters.

He reached out and pushed the Progrise Key on his belt.

"Rising Impact!"

The red light in his eyes flashed and vanished.

A dazzling green light appeared in the center of the belt.

Green lightning circuits circled around Qin Bei.

Qin Bei extended his right leg directly.

Accompanied by the green circuits.

Qin Bei was like a green bolt of lightning.

He kicked toward the monster below.

"Yaha!"

The Cleaner raised his head slightly.

His eyes, the size of mung beans, were slightly confused.

Facing the incoming Qin Bei.

He extended his eight tentacles.

He still maintained a circling posture.

Tentacle after tentacle began to spiral.

Finally, half an eggshell.

Just happened to shield his figure.

And at the same time.

Qin Bei’s figure also descended.

Crack!

Qin Bei, like a sharp sword, pierced directly through the eggshell made of tentacles.

Severed tentacles were scattered around him.

Qin Bei could clearly see.

A severed tentacle flying right in front of him.

And no blood flowed from these severed tentacles.

What flowed out instead was black mist.

Qin Bei was momentarily confused.

Is this thing solid or vaporized?

If it were solid, that would be fine.

If it is vaporized...

Puchi, puchi!

The severed tentacles began to turn into mist and dissipate.

And black mist began to spread from the Cleaner’s spine.

Qin Bei’s heart sank.

The ominous premonition had come true.

These tentacles were indeed vaporized.

Which meant...

Attacks were useless.

This thing would recover.

No.

Perhaps only the tentacles could recover.

And other parts.

Qin Bei’s gaze began to lock onto the Cleaner’s body.

The flower-petal-like head.

And the spine where the tentacles were spreading.

Only these two places, perhaps he could try.

Raising the briefcase blade.

Qin Bei turned into a green bolt of lightning.

Only a green afterimage could barely be seen.

And in an instant.

Qin Bei had already arrived in front of the Cleaner.

He raised the briefcase blade directly.

And slashed at the Cleaner’s red head.

Crack!

The things like flower petals beside the head.

Teeth began to emerge one by one.

They bit directly onto the briefcase blade.

Qin Bei reacted reflexively.

He pulled the Rising Hopper Progrise Key out from the center of the belt.

Then he inserted it into the handle of the briefcase blade.

"Rising Kaban Strash!"

Qin Bei applied a little force with his hand.

He pressed the trigger of the briefcase blade directly.

Charging complete.

Green lines wrapped around the briefcase blade.

Crack, crack!

The briefcase blade cut through like tofu.

It slashed all the biting flower petals to pieces.

Qin Bei flipped the handle.

He aimed the tip of the sword directly at the small red head.

The Cleaner seemed to have sensed the crisis as well.

His stiff body.

Began to flash downward.

The red light in Qin Bei’s eyes flashed.

He had guessed correctly.

This thing's head was solid.

It couldn't recover if attacked.

Perhaps this was his weakness.

He couldn't let it go.

He extended his foot and stomped.

Qin Bei’s figure flashed directly behind the Cleaner.

And the Cleaner was stunned.

I went to all the trouble to protect my head, and you disappeared?

Crack!

Before he could react.

The green blade cut directly along his spine, all the way to his head.

A standard green beam.

Split the Cleaner in two.

"Dawn... will not let you go."

The Cleaner’s red head twisted slightly.

Staring at Qin Bei’s locust-like eyes.

He curled his lips.

Then he exploded.

A red bead dropped in front of him.

Qin Bei picked it up immediately.

After observing it carefully.

He realized.

This bead.

Was the very bead the Cleaner mentioned that could seal a Beastmaster’s beast-taming space.

So.

Did he just drop loot?

However... Qin Bei watched carefully.

He found that the light of this red bead didn't seem as vibrant as before.
