[Star Fragmented Sea], nameless island.
As the entire island was enveloped by the seawater dome, the roars of ferocious beasts began to sound from all over the island.
Wang Xiao’s expression immediately changed when he heard this. Although he did not understand the meaning of those roars, he could hear the anger contained in them!
With a thought, the two mutated beasts stopped together.
Zhou Xiruo and Li Kaifu lay on the back of the Ice Thunder Horn Wolf. They felt that something was wrong and were about to get up to ask when they saw the dome formed by seawater.
The two of them immediately revealed shocked expressions. Zhou Xiruo gasped and asked in a trembling voice, “Wang, Wang Xiao! What’s going on?”
“We’ve been set up. That Jia Bo just now was bait. Someone is targeting us.”
Wang Xiao replied with a solemn tone. As he spoke, he was also observing the seawater dome. Although he could not tell the exact thickness, there were vaguely large black shadows swimming in it. Clearly, it was not that simple.
“Targeting us? But why?”
Li Kaifu asked with a long face, “Moreover, Jia Bo is also a participant, right?
Why would he agree to use himself as bait? What benefits did the other party give him?”
“I don’t know, but…
Before Wang Xiao could finish speaking, the Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon suddenly swayed and was thrown to the ground!
“Wang Xiao!”
Zhou Xiruo exclaimed and hurriedly jumped down to help Wang Xiao up. “Are you alright?”
“I’m fine!”
As Wang Xiao spoke, he got up and slapped the [Dark Swamp Crocodile
Dragon]. “What are you doing? It’s fine if you usually throw a tantrum, but why don’t you take a look at the situation now? Is this the time for you to throw a tantrum?”
The Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon took a deep breath and tilted its head to look at Wang Xiao with obvious impatience.
Wang Xiao’s expression darkened. Just as he was about to teach the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] a lesson, he was suddenly hit by a furry thing on his back. He turned around and saw the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] swaying left and right restlessly, as if it was also a little impatient.
Seeing the appearance of the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf], Wang Xiao suddenly felt that something was wrong.
The [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] was Wang Xiao’s first contract beast and also his most trusted contract beast to date. It was not only because of its strength, but also because the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] was stable and reliable.
No matter what situation it faced, the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] always had a calm expression. Such an uneasy feeling had almost never appeared before.
“Wang Xiao, their condition seems to be a little strange…”
Zhou Xiruo also discovered the abnormality of the two mutated beasts. She leaned close to Wang Xiao’s ear and asked softly, “Could they be frightened after this place was sealed by the seawater?”
Wang Xiao thought for a moment and shook his head. Even if the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] was frightened, the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] would definitely not be frightened. This was because the word “fear” was not in the dictionary of the Purple Star creatures.
Very quickly, the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] had already become even more
restless. Wang Xiao had no choice but to call Li Kaifu back first and then summon the two mutated beasts back to his territory.
Without the suppression of the two platinum-quality exotic beasts, the roars of the surrounding ferocious beasts seemed to be even stronger.
Li Kaifu’s face was pale as he asked softly, “Brother Wang, you’re a beast tamer lord. Do you know what those mutated beasts are saying?”
“I don’t know, but they should be very angry.”
Wang Xiao shook his head and replied honestly, “I think someone is behind all of this. We have to go back and ask Jia Bo. ”
“Go back?”
Li Kaifu was shocked. “Didn’t you say that it was a trap just now?”
“Even if it’s a mountain of blades or a sea of flames, we have to go through it!”
Wang Xiao sighed helplessly. “There seems to be something on this island that can affect mutated beasts. If I don’t figure it out, I won’t dare to easily use my mutated beasts.”
Li Kaifu immediately fell silent. Although he still felt worried, Wang Xiao was the strongest combat strength of their team. If Wang Xiao’s mutated beasts could not be used, it was almost equivalent to them being eliminated.
Helpless, the three of them returned to the center of the island.
Because they could not ride the mutated beasts, their return speed was much slower. However, when they returned to the vicinity of the [Flame Magic Tower], not only did Jia Bo not leave, but he also sat on the ground and looked at the three of them, as if he knew that they would return.
“Nearly ten minutes… It’s much faster than I expected.”
As Jia Bo spoke, he stood up and gave Wang Xiao a teasing smile. “I thought you would try to charge.”
Wang Xiao ignored Jia Bo’s mockery and pointed at the seawater dome. He asked coldly, “What’s going on?”
“Isn’t it obvious? Of course it’s to trap you.”
Jia Bo replied matter-of-factly, “You are too strong, so we can only bully you with numbers.”
“Bully with numbers?”
Wang Xiao narrowed his eyes. ‘You’re not the only one here?”
Jia Bo nodded. “Other than me, there are two others. One of them has the talent
[Bloodline Berserk], which can lure a certain type of soldier into [Berserk State]. Since you came back on foot, your mutated beasts must have been affected, right?”
Wang Xiao pursed his lips and did not say anything. Jia Bo continued, “The other talent is called the [Sea God Apostle]. Legend has it that it’s a top-notch talent closest to the [Twelve Heavenly Gods]. This dome is his work.”
“[Sea God Apostle]?”
Wang Xiao’s pupils constricted, and Zhou Xiruo and Li Kaifu’s expressions turned ugly.
Although they did not know much about this [Lord Talent], all the rumors they had heard were about how powerful this talent was!
After a short silence, Wang Xiao narrowed his eyes and looked at Jia Bo. “Why are you telling us this? It doesn’t seem wise to provide information to the opponent, right?”
“Not on the battlefield, of course. But it’s different here.”
Jia Bo shrugged and replied, “It’s just a competition. We hope that we can subdue the enemy without fighting, so we told you the situation here. We hope that you can be rational and take the initiative to forfeit.”
Wang Xiao’s heart skipped a beat. The feeling of being targeted appeared again, and it was even stronger than when he first entered the secret realm.
Seeing that Wang Xiao was silent, Jia Bo smiled mysteriously and looked at Li Kaifu beside him. “I’ve already said everything that needs to be said. You’re a participant, so it’s up to you to make the decision.”
Ll Kaitli glanced at wang Xiao. Altnougn ne telt a little Indignant, ne still silently took out the secret realm key.
Under the influence of the [Bloodline Berserk] talent, Wang Xiao’s mutated beasts were basically unable to be used. While they had lost a large portion of their combat strength, the other party still had the talent of [Sea God Apostle], which was close to the divine level.
There was no need to continue this battle.
However, just as Li Kaifu was about to crush the secret realm key, a hand suddenly reached out and pressed him down..
