Chapter 167 - The Invitation From the Deputy Commander
Chapter 167: The Invitation From the Deputy Commander
One of the Beast Masters with a Golden Hound asked, “Do you think it could be two people?”
“I don’t know. They just flew away!”
“Then what should we do?”
“Keep them. Captain hasn’t given the order for us to leave yet.”
“To be honest, I feel that things are a bit tricky. That Beast Master has a flying pet, and the Golden Hound can’t smell anything!”
…
Lugh didn’t know that he had brushed past the members of the Berserk Bear Mercenary Group.
He was only in a hurry because he had eaten a little after waking up!
Lugh only wanted to kill the Fierce Beasts seriously now!
This world was too dangerous. He had to improve his strength properly!
As for why he didn’t go to Violent Crocodile Beach, it was actually because he was afraid of trouble!
When he killed that group of ambushers, that young Beast Master said before he died that his uncle was the deputy commander of the Berserk Bear Mercenary Group!
In Lugh’s heart, he was more or less worried about the Berserk Bear Mercenary Group!
The Berserk Bear Mercenary Group was well-known in Seven Star City. It was said that there were many powerful Gold-Grade Beast Masters in the mercenary group!
It was said that they were also in contact with a certain high-level military officer in Seven Star City!
With Lugh’s current strength, he definitely could not be compared to them!
Therefore, he decided to hide from them for the time being.
Of course, Lugh could also mention this to Morocco!
However, Lugh felt that there was no need to trouble the Guardian for such a small matter!
He didn’t want to owe Morocco a favor!
As long as he was given some time, he didn’t care about the Berserk Bear Mercenary Group at all!
The Bronze Bull race was widely distributed in the plains at the foot of Mysterious Fantasy Mountain!
They were the same as the Violent Crocodiles, their growth potential was Bronze-Grade!
In other words, among the Bronze Bulls, the one with the highest growth potential, or the one with the highest strength, was only at Top-Grade Bronze.
If they wanted to continue breaking through, they would need some heavenly and earthly treasures to help them break through the shackles of their bloodline!
For Beast Masters, this was obviously not worth it. It was better to break off the contract with the Bronze Bulls and find a new divine pet with better growth potential, one that was at least Silver-Grade and above!
In a flash, more than ten days had passed.
During these ten days, Lugh’s strength had also greatly increased!
The strength of the Stormhawk had increased to Bronze High-Grade.
The strength of the Berserk Bear had also increased to Bronze Middle-Grade!
Lugh enjoyed this feeling of constantly gaining experience!
After Lugh killed a Bronze Bull with one punch, he heard a beautiful system notification sound!
[Ding! Your Divine Pet, Berserk Bear, has killed a Bronze Low-Grade Bronze Bull. EXP: 300!]
[Ding! Your Divine Pet has fully awakened its talent: Rage Burst]
“Alright, let’s continue!”
Hearing such good news, Lugh was extremely satisfied!
A talent like Rage Burst was completely picked up for nothing!
After returning to the camp, Lugh ate in the canteen of the mobile unit!
Just as he was enjoying his meal, an expert middle-aged soldier appeared in front of him with a tray!
Lugh didn’t pay much attention to it, but the other party directly opened his mouth!
“You are Lugh, right?”
“Yes, I am Lugh. May I ask who you are?”
“Let me introduce myself. I am the Captain of the 15th Mobile Squad, Second Team, Tong Tian!”
“Hello, Captain Tong!”
“Lugh, I have heard of you. You are the strongest genius in the history of Seven Star City!”
“You flatter me, Captain Tong!”
“I have seen the crystal cores you have handed in recently. They have far surpassed Beast Masters of the same level!”
Lugh smiled. “It’s not too bad.”
Tong Tian held his chopsticks and said, “I came to you this time to ask you if you would like to join our Second Team.”
“I’m having a great time in the First Team!”
It was exactly what Lugh meant.
In the First Team, he was having a great time. The presence of the captain, Mora, was very weak!
Recently, the mission of the 15th Mobile Unit was to eliminate all the Fierce Beasts near Seven Star City. There were no other special missions!
He worked hard every day to level up and raise his strength!
At night, when he returned to the camp, he would chat with his friends from the First Team, exchange information about each other, and exchange combat experience. His life was very fulfilling!
Wouldn’t he be making himself uncomfortable by changing teams at this time?
Tong Tian, when he was rejected by Lugh, wasn’t angry at all. “In that case, I won’t force you!”
“Thank you for your understanding, Captain!”
“But the Deputy Guardian wants to see you!”
Lugh’s hand froze. “Deputy Guardian?”
“Yes, the Deputy Guardian has heard of your reputation and thinks highly of your potential. He wants to see you!”
There was indeed a Deputy Guardian in Seven Star City. His name was Bloom and he was mainly in charge of Seven Star City’s government affairs. His reputation was good and it was said that he cooperated well with Morocco.
Of course, these were all rumors. Only the higher-ups of Seven Star City knew the relationship between the two Guardians.
Lugh stirred the soup on the plate. After thinking for a while, he asked in a low voice, “This, can you let me think about it?”
“What do I need to think about? The Lord Guardian, Bloom, wants to see you because he thinks highly of you!”
“I know, but I still need to think about it!” Lugh said, “Tomorrow, how about tomorrow? I’ll give you an answer tomorrow!”
“Okay, then I’ll wait for you until tomorrow!”
After saying that, Tong Tian took his plate and left.
He didn’t even take a bite of his meal.
Meanwhile, Lugh was deep in thought!
He was worried that he might get involved in the high-level battle of Seven Star City!
Lugh could not be blamed for worrying over nothing. It was just that the Deputy Guardian of Seven Star City suddenly wanted to see him. If there was no other first move, Lugh himself would not believe it!
To be honest, he had no interest in the battle between the higher-ups of Seven Star City!
He had always believed that strength was the root!
“It seems that even if I don’t take sides, others will force me!”
This was the disadvantage of having a great reputation, as it was easy to be targeted by others!
Thinking of the overbearing aura from the same day, Lugh felt somewhat helpless!
It was obviously impossible to stand on both sides at the same time!
Hence, Lugh hesitated for a moment before choosing to stand on Morocco’s side!
Other than the reason why Morocco treated him well, it was also because Lugh’s strength wasn’t good enough!
What did Bloom manage?
He was in charge of the government affairs and the people’s livelihood!
What did Morocco manage?
He was in charge of the defense of Seven Star City and the Reclamation Troops!
In this day and age, those who were strong and had control of the army were the real bosses!
Even if Bloom could infiltrate some of his men into the military, it would not have much of an impact on Morocco!
However, those who should show loyalty still had to show it!
After Lugh finished his meal, he found Sang Kun from the 15th Mobile Unit!
He told Sang Kun about the matter that Deputy Guardian Bloom wanted!
Sang Kun was Morocco’s hardcore supporter!
Morocco had said it personally!
Otherwise, Lugh would not have been sent to the 15th Mobile Unit!
Sang Kun smiled, “I will report this matter to the Lord Guardian!”
“Then should I go?”
“Don’t worry about that Deputy City Lord!” Sang Kun said, “You can just refuse. In the 15th Mobile Unit, Tong Tian won’t dare to touch you!”
“But what if it’s not the military camp?”
Sang Kun smiled. “To be honest, your current importance is not enough to let them secretly attack you!”
These words made Lugh feel awkward!
When he thought about his own strength, he realized that he was still Bronze-Grade scum. It was true!
At the moment, Lugh had shown his outstanding talent and potential.
However, these things could not affect the overall situation at all!
“Bloom did not fall out with Lord Guardian. It’s just that he likes to do some small tricks behind the scenes. In fact, the Guardian has always known about this, but he did not take it to heart!”
“I’m just afraid that he will target me!”
“I’ll remind the Guardian and Bloom to have a good talk about this matter. Your safety will definitely be guaranteed. Don’t worry!” Sang Kun thought for a moment and said, “However, you have to be careful. There may be no hidden targets for you, but there may be some on the surface. Tong Tian is quite strong, but he doesn’t have much magnanimity!”
“What do you mean by openly targeting me?”
“En, for example, they want to fight you!”
“That’s not a problem!”
If someone was willing to be abused, Lugh would not refuse.
As long as they were at the same level, Lugh really did not have any opponents. He did not believe that anyone would be able to defeat his Stormhawk and Berserk Bear.
“It’s good that you are confident!”
After Lugh left, Sang Kun reported this matter to Morocco through a specially set up route by the military.
