Following the instructions of the beast tamer, Gu Jiang, Lin Ye sat on the body of the most powerful looking giant earth wolf. He pulled on the reins and turned his head to shout, “Adelia, Tru, bring 4 Class 2 soldiers. Speed is crucial for this. The nine of us will be enough.”
“Yes, my lord.”
Tru and the others obeyed, taking the beast saddles from Gu Jiang.
Of course, their saddles were only ordinary blue tier equipment. Other than being able to basic support, they were not worth looking at.
Gu Jiang felt uneasy.
He felt that the 5,000 Zombie Souls that his lord forced into his hands were a little scalding and he almost wanted to throw them away.
But he did not dare to.
He had already decided. When he returned from this mission, he would buy more high-level beast saddles from the Beast King City.
Otherwise, God knew which day his lord would be in a bad mood and decided to settle scores with him.
In a short while, the others had also installed their saddles.
All of them rode on the huge earth wolf happily.
Lin Ye also tried a few times. Perhaps it was due to the purple tier beast saddle, but it was easier to operate than he imagined.
All he had to do was hold on to the reins and swing the reins from side to side, and the earth wolf would follow his instructions.
However, detailed operation still required Beast Tamer Gu Jiang to use an incantation which was troublesome.
If one could undergo the modifications by the barracks and become a wolf cavalry warrior, they would be able to communicate with the giant earth wolf telepathically. There would be no need for a beast tamer.
But there was no time now. It would take at least five hours to train a wolf cavalry warrior. By the time the training was completed, it would be too late.
“Let’s go to the place where the guy got injured first. His blood is still there.”
Seeing that the others had more or less grasped the method of riding, with the help of Beast Tamer Gu Jiang, Lin Ye and the rest rode on the wolves.
Tap-tap-tap…
The earth wolf was extremely fast. In less than ten seconds, they were 900 meters away from the camp.
There was still traces of blood left behind by Chu Xiu before he escaped.
Lin Ye glanced at Gu Jiang, who immediately understood his intentions and muttered some beast-taming incantations.
“Wolf Tracking Technique! Find the owner of the blood and you’ll get candy!”
“Find the owner of the blood and you’ll get candy!”
He repeated that line nine times in a row.
The unreliable sounding incantation spell transformed into sound waves that surged into the ear of the giant earth wolf.
In an instant, they seemed to have understood the instructions.
Each and every one of their bell-sized wolf eyes became blindingly bright as drool dripped from the corners of their mouths.
With the reward, they could tempt the beasts to find people. The nine huge earth wolves immediately perked up. They sniffed at the blood on the ground and raised their heads to search for some kind of fluctuation in scent from the air.
“Howl—”
Finally, the first to discover the tracks was the mighty earth wolf that Lin Ye was riding.
It lowered its head and howled towards the southeastern direction, as if saying, “I found it. The owner of the blood is over there. Give me some candy.”
“Well done!”
Lin Ye’s eyes lit up. He casually threw 10 Zombie Souls into the mouth of the huge Earth Wolf and pulled on its reins. “Let’s go!”
Rumble—-
A team of nine people quickly moved through the forest.
The huge earth wolf was indeed like a small whirlwind in the forest. Anywhere it passed, it was like a tornado, stirring up large amounts of dead branches and leaves.
As it ran, the scenery in front of him changed rapidly.
In just seven to eight minutes, the giant earth wolf leaped up and ran out of the forest to the edge of the river.
From afar, they saw ten figures resting by the river.
“Found them!”
Lin Ye’s eyes lit up. He was overjoyed. With the Purple Star Armor protecting him, he held the MP9 in his hands and charged forward.
“Oh no, they caught up!”
On the other side, Chu Xiu, who had just woken up from his injuries, saw Lin Ye and the others. His expression turned extremely ugly.
Wolves? Cavalry soldiers?
Damn it! How did he develop so quickly!
It was too late to run. It was impossible to outrun them on a flat ground. At this distance, they would catch up in less than a minute.
His eyes were bloodshot as his mind raced, looking for a way to escape.
Through the dense forest? No way, he would die if he went in.
Cross the river?
From the corner of his eye, he glanced at the float of crocodiles which were lying on their stomachs sunbathing at the edge of the river.
“F*ck!”
He cursed under his breath and agitated the arrow wound on his shoulder that was still occasionally emitting wind elemental power. He coughed up blood uncontrollably.
“Chu Xiu, your wound is open again. What should I do? Are you going to die soon? Sobs…”
Zhang Bao’er stomped her feet anxiously. Her eyes were bloodshot and tears flowed down her face.
“…”
Chu Xiu looked at Sister Bao’er helplessly, feeling bitter in his heart.
He knew very well that he was probably going to die this time. The wounds on his body were severe. The arrows which were imbued with the special energy of the other world were extremely terrifying. Even though he avoided a fatal blow with the help of his mysterious talent, it still damaged his human body.
Along the way, although the experienced rangers had treated his wounds, the bleeding couldn’t stop.
There were no hospitals or doctors here, and he did not have the money to recruit medical-type soldiers.
Even if Lin Ye and the others did not catch up, he would die for sure.
However, he was unwilling to accept this!!!
He had finally gotten rid of Bald Qiang and the others. Good days were supposed to be awaiting them.
In the end, it was all for naught.
He could die, but not Sister Bao’er!
“My lord, what should we do now?”
At this moment, the 20 or so rangers guarding in front of him swallowed nervously. The wolf cavalry warriors were charging over menacingly.
Although there were only nine of them, their aura and pressure completely crushed them, making their limbs go soft from fear.
[Warning, Survivor Chu Xiu. Your rangers have felt fear and loyalty has dropped to 50%!]
[Warning, Survivor Chu Xiu. Your rangers have felt fear and their loyalty has dropped to 40%. They are about to choose to escape!]
“F*ck!”
Before he died, he withstand a critical hit of the diminishing loyalty of his people from the underworld. Chu Xiu cursed in his heart, but there was nothing he could do.
Forget it. Since he had harmed the loyal Chu Yang, he should set these rangers free.
Thinking of this, he took the initiative to release their recruitment status and said expressionlessly, “You guys can leave. If you stay, only death awaits.”
“My lord, then, please take care!”
The rangers were overjoyed. After thanking him, they contacted the elders of their tribe and opened the teleportation array to escape back to the underworld.
After dealing with the problem of the rangers, Chu Xiu looked at Zhang Bao’er and said sternly, “Sister Bao’er, you must remember what I’m going to say next. I will craft a way for you to live.”
“If you have the chance to live, don’t avenge me, and don’t harbor any thoughts of revenge.”
“This world has changed. Many people treat this place as a game. They kill without caring. When I’m not around, you have to be careful. If you can, be an ordinary person in the territory of that human lord.”
“I’ve noticed before that there are other humans in his territory. I think he still retains a bit of his humanity. As long as you don’t go overboard and become hostile to him, he won’t hurt you..”
