Chapter 172 - Brilliant Gold, Shadow Python heaven

Moreover, if the six of them worked together to defeat Wang Ye, wouldn’t it be as simple as ABC?

Could he, Wang Ye, have three heads and six arms?

“I agree with Wang Ye’s idea!” Bing Li was the first to raise her hand, “He’s super strong. If we want to become the Rookie King, we have to eliminate him first. Only then will we have a chance.”

“I agree too!”

“You’re good. I’ve been convinced!”

“Okay.”

“This idea is indeed correct. I also agree.”

“…”

Jing Ji looked at the other five and was speechless for a moment.

Although he was not willing to agree, he had to admit that what Wang Ye said seemed to make sense.

There was nothing he could do. After all, the other party was number one now.

Seeing this, Wang Ye looked at Lu Daying.

Lu Daying coughed a few times, then went to another room to discuss.

Not long after, he returned and said, “The professions department has agreed. They think that such a duel is very interesting, so they decided to increase the reward. No matter which side wins, there will be additional rewards.”

The professions department was short for Dongli Country’s Professional Beastmaster Management Department. It was generally responsible for managing all the professional beastmasters in Dongli Country.

It was the department that the general public and beastmasters knew the most about.

In the main city of every province, or in some important cities, there would be a professions office. They were in charge of the promotion assessment, rewards, allowances, safety, job missions, and so on for professional beastmasters.

“You now have five hours of free time to rest and recover. There is a pet center and individual lounges inside the sea mechanical kun. If you want to recover your spiritual energy or your injuries, you can go there. When we arrive at Qixing Plaza, we will start the duel immediately,” Lu Daying looked at the time, “In addition, the professions department thinks that your battle is very interesting and has decided to publicize it. Therefore, there will be more people watching it. There is no need to care too much about winning or losing. Just unleash all your strength.”

Although his words were simple, the contestants felt inexplicably pressured.

Wang Ye thought that “more people watching” wouldn’t be too many. After all, there were only a few hours of publicizing time.

With time to rest, of course, they would rest.

Besides, he still had very important things to deal with.

It had to be said that the interior of the sea mechanical kun was just huge!

It was completely a small city, and one with consciousness!

First, he went to the pet center, then found an individual lounge.

The lounge was about thirty square meters, and the interior was quite spacious. It was suitable for the beastmasters and some small to medium-sized pets to rest and have fun.

Wang Ye placed the demonized Xiao Tao and the materials into his spatial sphere.

The demonized Xiao Tao was very restless. Fortunately, it realized that it wasn’t strong enough now, and it was still under Wang Ye’s control due to the Bright Scalding Flames in its body, so it naturally didn’t dare to act recklessly. As such, it stayed rather quiet in the spatial sphere.

“Xiao Jiu, you stay in the room and guard,” Wang Ye put down his things and said, “I’m going out for a while.”

“Chirp!” Xiao Jiu flapped its wings.

Go ahead!

Wang Ye walked out of the lounge and found another lounge. Then, he released the white python.

After that, he let the white python release the four investigators and their pets.

A few hours had passed. It was not a good thing to stay in the white python’s belly space for too long.

After being spat out, three of the investigators were still unconscious. Only the middle-aged man was awake.

His expression was a lot calmer.

It was because the white python’s belly space… had many tonics and medicines.

“You…” He barely stood up. Before he could look around, he hurriedly said to Wang Ye, “Thank you for saving our lives, senior. May I know who you are?”

“Aren’t you going to take a look at where you are?” Wang ye asked.

The man looked around, his expression turning serious, “This is the resting room inside the sea mechanical kun. Why am I here? Could it be that you’re…”

“That’s right. I’m a novice beastmaster who’s taking the professional assessment this year,” Wang Ye said, “Out of curiosity, I accidentally entered the Land of the Hidden Mysterious, and that’s how I met you guys.”

Wang Ye looked at the latter.

Back then, he and the sword hilt had faced off in midair.

At that time, these people had already fallen to the ground. They had no idea what had happened, and before they could react, they were swallowed by the white python.

“…” The middle-aged man looked at Wang Ye in shock.

He looked as if he had seen a ghost.

He couldn’t imagine that a new beastmaster would dare to enter the Land of Hidden Mysterious during the assessment, and even…

“Right, I’m also an investigator,” Wang Ye took out his senior investigator’s exclusive badge and continued, “So, can you tell me what happened in the Land of Hidden Mysterious?”

Seeing the badge, the middle-aged man fell into deep thought, seeming to understand the situation a little.

He pondered for a few seconds and said, “We were on a special investigation mission. We can’t tell anyone about it unless the other party is an investigator. Since you are an investigator and a senior investigator at that, you can know about it.”

Then, he briefly explained the situation.

In short, his name was Jin Ge, and he was a platinum-rank investigator. He was a warlock, and he possessed a level 4 pet as well as level 4 combat strength.

He was from an elite team in the Qixing Investigation Corps, the Golden Dragon Team.

Not long ago, there had been a huge fluctuation of spiritual energy inside the Land of Hidden Mysterious, and many demon skeleton sword ghosts had appeared.

They had received orders from their superiors to investigate the situation there, and they had made some progress. They had confirmed that the sealed fierce beast inside the Land of Hidden Mysterious might have awakened, which caused the leakage of the power of strangeness, leading to the appearance of many demon skeleton sword ghosts.
