Chapter 2567 - 2567 Honor of the Grotto Continent!

2567 Honor of the Grotto Continent!

The butler replied to the figure naturally, a cruel glint in his eye. He had seen his fair share of wicked deeds and knew that the path of wickedness often led to the most wealth. As the one carrying out the deed, he could surely scoop out some benefits for himself.

“Remember to capture him alive! Once you have captured the nest of rats, I want to hear for myself how they learned of the surface.

“I have accepted Lord Xi Han’s invitation to hunt for feys in the Barren Sea. Once we are finished with this matter, you will be accompanying me! If all goes well, I will allow you to choose a few feys for yourself.

“Your two grandchildren have reached the appropriate age to contract feys. If they wish to develop themselves on the surface, they must contract feys from the sea.”

Lin Yuan could not hear what these two people were saying. If he did, he would not only not find them mysterious but would even see them as pathetic!

When Bei Xu first joined the Astronomical Parliament, Lin Yuan had gained an understanding of the Grotto Continent’s native feys through Bei Xu’s memories.

The Grotto Continent’s native feys were not as impressive as the two of them made it out to be. Most of the feys from the Grotto Continent were insect-species. There were also a few toothed beasts.

A few special mouse-species feys that had been brought up in a compatible environment like the Grotto Continent could grow up to ten meters long.

But according to what this member of the Grotto Continent’s elite said, it seemed as though aquatic feys were far more precious to the Grotto Continent’s native feys.

This idea must come from this member of the elite’s opinion that going to the surface was a huge privilege. He saw it as an honor to be able to hunt in the resource-scarce Barren Sea!

The environment in the sea was very perilous. Due to a lack of fungi and bacteria-type feys in the Barren Sea, only large aquatic feys were willing to pass through there. As a result, the Barren Sea became somewhat of a prohibited zone.

Everything in other continents that people considered regular possessions were luxuries in the Grotto Continent.

The butler excitedly fell to his knees.

“Thank you for the reward! Rest assured. I will definitely lead a team of people to capture and bring those ignorant rats to you!”

The butler had once been lucky enough to head to the surface. However, he had not seen the rumored sea.

It was said that envoys from other continents had visited the Grotto Continent in the past and informed them that the sea was called the Barren Sea.

If his two grandchildren were able to form contracts with feys from the Barren Sea, they would gain the chance to harvest from the borders of the Barren Sea in the future. This would bring his family unspeakable honor!

…

Bei Xu was full of excitement to meet with Lin Yuan.

Although he did not know that he was being targeted, he was still cautious.

Bei Xu led his team to a crowded compound outside of the city. They changed all of their clothes and paid off a small group with similar physiques to wear their original clothes. This way, if they were being targeted, they could shake off their tails and buy themselves more time to flee.

As long as they were not resting, this small group sought out work constantly. Otherwise, it would be difficult for them to support themselves and their families!

These people might seem sad in the eyes of the other continents, but Bei Xu envied them greatly.

In the remote compound where Bei Xu previously resided, the biggest hope of the people there was to be able to survive. They lived every day full of fear that they would accidentally encounter a dimensional rift or fall prey to feys. They knew nothing of family and would never work for the sake of their family.

Compared to those people, the people in this compound were much happier.

Bei Xu never complained to Lin Yuan during the Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meetings, but he had experienced many troublesome incidents this past year.

He had even almost died because he trusted the wrong person. If he had not contracted the Life Knot Rock Crystal Lin Yuan had prepared for him, he would have already become another ghost floating around the Grotto Continent!

Bei Xu was glad that he had not told those around him that he had contracted the Life Knot Rock Crystal.

From then on, he no longer trusted those around him. He used the Sharp Shadow Bat’s exclusive skill, Bat’s Fangs Blood Seed, to turn all those around him into blood zombies.

Turning a lifeform into a blood zombie would not affect the lifeform’s feelings and will but would ensure that the lifeform felt unshakable loyalty toward Bei Xu!

Bei Xu’s orders would be carried out in a group he ruled over with an iron fist in the shortest time possible. This would also allow him to protect himself to the best of his ability when he encountered danger!

But Bei Xu’s tricks were amateurish to the butler who had spent decades ‘catching mice’.

The butler was initially confused by Bei Xu, but he soon sent his people out to lock onto Bei Xu’s location.

Bei Xu’s attempt at hiding and saving himself angered the butler.

If this was any other hunt, he would not be punished even if something went wrong. At most, the butler would be chided but would not have to endure any serious consequences.

He also had failed ‘catching mice’ attempts in the past.

However, this time was clearly different.

He had been promised a chance to head to the surface and see the Barren Sea for himself! A bright future was also in store for his two grandchildren!

If he failed this time, the promise would be revoked in a fit of rage.

There was no way that the butler would accept the loss of such a huge opportunity!

The butler personally led a team and prepared to intercede before Bei Xu could meet up with others.

Neither the butler nor the elite thought that someone as young as Bei Xu would be the leader of a small team.

Hence, the butler did not want to set off any alarms before this group of mice returned to their nest.

Normally, those who spent a lot of time in the wild and often brushed against death would come to gain a special feeling. This feeling would allow them to have a sense of fortune or misfortune. It was called a sixth sense.

At that moment, Bei Xu felt an undeniable tingle of danger that caused him to become wary of his surroundings. He pretended to speak to one of his subordinates before tossing out a source-type item.
