Ajax, who was hiding behind the tree pointed by the rank 4 sea tauren, cursed it before escaping from there.

'Looks like, I need to change my plans now,'

With the current situation, Ajax felt that his previous plans would not work anymore and thought to change his plans.

Because to tame the rank 2 and rank 3 spirit beasts, Ajax needed at least a minute; however, the rank 4 spirit beast was very careful and didn't give Ajax any time to waste.

'System, how many minutes have passed from the moment the trial is started?'

While escaping, Ajax asked the system about the time.

'Ding,

Remaining time for the trial:- 4 minutes

Soon, the system sent the notification which had the remaining time for the trial.

'What? Only one minute has passed?'

Ajax was shocked to see that only minutes had passed because he felt at least three minutes had passed.

'Looks like the old man is planning dirty once again,'

It didn't take much time to figure out that the old man was tampering with the trial time; however, he could not say anything to him because Ajax was unable to find the old man.

'Searching for me? Sorry, but you have to finish the trial, first,'

The old man, who was observing Ajax from the sky, silently muttered in his head as he smiled.

For some reason, the old man continued to smile about something even when Ajax was at a disadvantage.

Earlier, he was excited because he thought Ajax could finish the trial; however, now, Ajax was running away from the spirit beasts.

As for why he was still excited about Ajax, no one knows.

'This running will not help me finish the trial,' Ajax silently thought as he already knew he could not outrun those spirit beasts and continued thinking, "I will directly make a deal with that rank 4 spirit beast."

Soon, instead of running away from the spirit beasts, Ajax decided to face them.

'Halt'

With that thought in his mind, all of a sudden, Ajax stopped in his tracks and faced towards the incoming spirit beasts.

"Hey, Sea tauren. I want to make a deal which is better than the deal you have made with the spirit of this dimensional crevice," With a loud voice, Ajax shouted at the incoming spirit beasts.

However, the rank 4 spirit beast didn't give any reply nor any response to Ajax and the spirit beasts didn't stop rushing towards him.

At the same time the sea tauren revealed a mocking smile on his face and looked down on again while muttering, 'A human from a lowly province wants to make a deal with me? What a joke.'

However, Ajax was very far from the sea tauren and could not see the expression on his face.

"Looks like I need to take out the item I want to trade with him,"

Ajax muttered to himself and hurriedly took out a green-coloured pill from his inventory.

The moment he saw the pill in Ajax's hands, the sea tauren was unable to speak normally and stuttered in his words.

That pill was none other than Advance essence pills that he had created in the five elemental world.

According to his observations, An intelligent spirit beast would never resist the temptation of it.

'Why the heck are these spirit beasts still rushing toward me?'

Ajax, who was unaware of the rank 4 spirit beast's condition after seeing the pill in his hands, became anxious because the spirit beasts were still rushing at me and they were less than 100 meters away from him.

'Damn it...what should I do now?'

The advanced essence pill was that item he wanted to trade with the rank 4 spirit beasts because even Snow, who was in the general realm now, could not resist its temptation.

However, looking at the still rushing spirit beasts, Ajax became anxious and fell into a dilemma as he didn't know what to do now.

'Looks like I am going to fail the trial,'

Soon, he became muddle-headed and lost hope in finishing the trial.

'Huh? What is that pill?'

The old man, who was observing Ajax from above, focused on the green-coloured pill in Ajax's hand and thought to himself.

Even though he had a vast knowledge about many things, alchemy was not one of them. So, he was unable to recognize the pill; however, he had a feeling that it was an interesting pill.

"Anyway, I guess I became excited for nothing," 

Soon, he shook his head when he felt that Ajax had no way of completing the trial.

Soon, the spirit beast horde had reached Ajax and they didn't stop in their tracks as they wanted nothing but to kill Ajax.

'Stop'

Just when the spirit beasts were about to attack Ajax, a loud voice resounded in the surroundings that made all the spirit beasts stop in their tracks and hurriedly turned back to look at the source of that voice.

"Just wait a minute, let's see what is the deal of this human,"

The speaker was none other than the rank 4 spirit beast, the sea tauren.

'Roar'

All the spirit beasts roared in reply as techy cleared a way for him.

'Phew...I thought this is the end of me. Looks like the advanced essence pill is much valuable than I thought,'

Finally, when he heard the voice of the rank 4 seal tauren, Ajax heaved a sigh of relief and looked at the sea tauren.

The sea tauren walked towards Ajax in large steps and only in a couple of steps he had reached Ajax and stood in front of him.

'Huh,'

Only now, Ajax was able to clearly see the rank 4 sea tauren and was shocked by his appearance,

The sea tauren in front of him had a height of 2 meters with a cow face and in the place of ears, he had two small gills.

When he saw the sea tauren's appear in a close distance, Ajax felt, 'This sea tauren looks even more dangerous than a demon general.'

"So, human. What kind of deal do you want to make with me?"

While Ajax was in his thoughts, the sea tauren spoke in his crude voice and asked about Ajax's deal.

"I will give you this pill if you don't bother me for another ten minutes,"

Soon, Ajax replied as he played with a pill in his hands.

"Sorry, I can't do that," The sea tauren didn't think much before rejecting Ajax's deal.

"Huh? Why?"

Ajax didn't understand why the sea tauren was rejecting his deal for a moment; however, he understood something.

'Looks like the spirit of this dimensional crevice has promised some good rewards them,'

Ajax silently thought in his head before taking out another advanced essence pill.

'An...another one?'

When he saw the other advanced essence pill in Ajax's hands, the rank 4 sea tauren became shocked and his heart started beating furiously.

'What are those pills that can stop this arrogant sea tauren from attacking this challenger?'

The spirit of the dimensional crevice became surprised for a moment when he saw the expressions on the sea tauren's face.
