World-saving Plan: The Only Savior-Chapter 628 - 478 Sudden Incident in the Hat Brim District (Two in One)
Chapter 628: Chapter 478 Sudden Incident in the Hat Brim District (Two in One)
"Jiu Jiu!"
As if to confirm what Zhang Xiaoman had said, Jiu Jiu immediately let out a series of bright calls.
Lin Sisi had been enhanced with the Spirit Detection Technique and could already see the outline of the other party.
Seeing something that resembled a Little Fox, she couldn’t help but feel affection and reached out to touch it.
"How comfortable!"
A smile appeared on Lin Sisi’s face, as the touch of the little creature was very soothing, making her immediately fond of petting the Little Fox.
However, Jiu Jiu seemed not quite accustomed to being touched by someone other than Zhang Xiaoman.
At first, it was somewhat reluctant, but as time passed, it gradually relaxed.
After dinner, Xiao Shun hurriedly approached.
"Boss, you are back. We discovered something at the Wildfire Tavern. Today, the Fox friends and dog friends went there, encountered two monsters, and even brought that thing back."
In the office, Xiao Shun placed a box on the table, then repeated what had happened that day.
"Mutant Beast, Makula, and fragments..."
Zhang Xiaoman pondered for a moment after hearing this.
He quickly checked the gang interface records and found that it indeed displayed an absorption message.
It was a monster named Thorny Lizard, and the added points were 50, just reaching the strength of the Third Level.
Now members of the Star Alliance also possessed the ability to hunt Alien Species alone, so Zhang Xiaoman often had points credited to his account.
To avoid disturbances, he simply blocked the System’s prompt function, which prevented him from discovering the information about Hu Peng and Xun You killing the monsters immediately.
"It looks like, the guy who’s been creating Mutant Beasts is finally about to surface... According to their actions now, it seems their next target is really in Gaul..."
Zhang Xiaoman analyzed the intelligence collected by the team and then turned his gaze to the box in front of him.
Although not yet opened, he had already sensed the Dark Energy Fluctuation contained within the box.
It was a very eerie strength.
Agitated, evil, cold, and crazy...
Just feeling it from a close range could make one feel a sense of repulsion.
Jiu Jiu also appeared disdainful.
It circled around Zhang Xiaoman, flying for quite a while, occasionally making sounds, showing its dislike for the object.
Xiao Shun saw the extra creature beside his boss and curiously observed it for a moment.
He intended to ask what it was, but considering that the Star Lord was in thought, he decided not to disturb him.
Zhang Xiaoman prepared to open the box, just as he looked up and saw his expression, casually explaining:
"This is a Star Spirit I found, it has already recognized me as its master, you can call it Jiu Jiu."
"Jiu Jiu!"
Jiu Jiu chirped in agreement.
Zhang Xiaoman, not waiting for Xiao Shun to say anything, continued with his hands and opened the box immediately.
Black fragments, purple lines, strange patterns.
Even without the need for Dark Energy, one could see with the naked eye that it was an ominous item.
"Zzzzzz..."
A sound of electricity emerged from behind, and the surrounding lights began to flicker, as if they might go out at any moment.
"Click."
Zhang Xiaoman quickly closed the box and looked up at Xiao Shun sitting across from him.
"This thing glows and seems to affect the operation of electronic devices; tell me more about its origin, don’t leave out any details."
"Ah, sure, Boss."
Xiao Shun immediately went through the details of the item again, this time more thoroughly.
Including all the details, along with his own speculations, he laid everything out.
"Hmm... I see, so besides us, there’s only a Bounty Hunter named Sizar who’s seen it?"
"That’s right, Weiss is quite reliable. After discovering that the item was unusual, he immediately had Hu Peng and the others go there, during which the box had never been seen by anyone else, nor had it been opened."
"Good, the people of the Wildfire Team are also top hunters, their awareness in this regard is very strong."
Zhang Xiaoman then remembered Weiss and his group, influenced by Su Changqing’s report that they had been making the Wildfire Tavern quite lively recently.
"Boss, the dogs are currently looking for the whereabouts of that mercenary. According to guesses, as long as we find the origin of this fragment, we should be able to directly find the lair of those Mutant Beasts."
Xiao Shun said excitedly.
"Hmm, how long will that take?"
"Weiss said, Sizar is currently in Ero, we can find him within at most 3 days."
"3 days, huh? That’s fine."
Zhang Xiaoman nodded: "Also, find me the information on that man on the beach, I’ll see who he is, this is also a breakthrough."
"Sure!"
"By the way, the people from the Wildfire Tavern were supposed to sign up for the Awakener trials, right? The trial starts in 3 days, they probably won’t make it in time."
Xiao Shun hesitated and then nodded:
"That, it seems so...perhaps, I should go and inform them, if it really can’t be helped, they could participate in the next trial three months later?"
Zhang Xiaoman shook his head.
"That won’t do, the purpose of the trial isn’t the test itself, don’t be too constrained by formality... do this, tell them that this mission is their trial. If they can complete it successfully, I can agree to let them participate in the Enlightenment Ceremony."
