Chapter 526: Following Zhang-shao is Great!

Edited by Aelryinth

Since those metal-attributed creatures were indeed exotic beasts and would drop beast cards after their deaths, it was like Zhang Che had taken a mind-easing pill. He no longer had any misgivings and ordered his subdued beasts and pets to massacre anything that came their way. At the same time, a scarlet and white ray shot out from his brow. The agile sword light swept around him, killing anything that escaped their net.

Following behind Zhang Che, Zhao Wu’s group realized there was actually nothing for them to do on the battlefield. -Zhang-shao is really too strong!- was the only thought they had left in their hearts.

In the past, they had spoken with Liu Gang’s squad, and had heard of Zhang Che’s glorious achievements. However, they thought Liu Gang and the others might be exaggerating things. After all, Liu Gang’s squad were now direct subordinates to Zhang Che. It was inevitable that they would be suspected of exaggerating things a bit.

From the looks of it now, Liu Gang and the others were too conservative in their tales!

Zhang Che wasn’t just strong at an ordinary level. He could actually pass through the thick net of exotic beasts like a fish in water, not feeling the slightest pressure!

If it was another high-tier beastmaster with epic-quality combat forces in his place, they wouldn’t be able to do things at Zhang Che’s level.

Even so, Zhang Che didn’t care what Zhao Wu and the others were thinking. While massacring the metal-attributed exotic beasts that came rushing at him, Zhang Che used his data eyes to check around him.

He wanted to see how strong those exotic beasts were, and see if there were any worth paying attention to. Although his main objective was the epic-quality exotic beast, it would make his trip worth it if he obtained some dark gold or even legend-quality beast cards.

However, after looking left and right, Zhang Che was left disappointed. Perhaps it was because they had barely entered Mt Fallen Star, but high-tier high-quality exotic beasts had yet to appear. Those that came were only cannon fodder; the strongest ones among them were only at mid-tier gold-quality.

Given the strength of those exotic beasts, it was an easy task for Zhang Che’s babies to kill them with the elemental queen and the Scarlet Flame Drake at the fore.

“Zhang-shao, watch out!”

While Zhang Che was checking the attributes of the exotic beasts around him, Zhao Wu suddenly noticed an especially savage-looking exotic beast ahead whose body suddenly swelled up rapidly. The metal spikes on its body resembled those of a hedgehog and shot out directly towards Zhang Che.

Obviously, that exotic beast’s level and quality wasn’t low. It realized Zhang Che was the master of those powerful subdued beasts. As long as they killed him, all their problems would be solved.

Even so, how could a sneak attack of that level slip past Zhang Che’s senses? His expression remained unchanged. He swept his gaze across, the scarlet and white sword formed a screen of light in front of him at lightning speed, pulverizing every one of the sharp spikes that came flying at him.

After blocking the exotic beast’s sneak attack, the scarlet and white sword shot dozens of meters forward in an instant and decapitated that savage metallic exotic beast hiding in the pack.

A resplendent light shone. That savage metallic exotic beast soon turned into a dark gold beast card and fell into the crowd of exotic beasts.

Even though they were dozens of meters apart, Zhang Che’s sharp eyes noticed there were actually six hexagrams on that dark golden beast card!

“Hmm, not bad! It’s actually a six-star dark gold-quality exotic beast. Finally, a small gain!” Zhang Che nodded to himself. He couldn’t be bothered to tangle with those weak exotic beasts any longer, and he ordered the Scarlet Flame Drake to activate its skill. A column of golden scarlet flames immediately shot out from its mouth, quickly spinning around and clearing a wide area.

After the devastation of the flames, the light from the deaths of all the exotic beasts shone at the same time, like they belonged to a single creature, nearly blinding Zhao Wu and the others.

It was the first time they had ever seen the skill of an epic-quality subdued beast! Their hearts raced, feeling overwhelmed.

If they were the target of such a terrifying fire attack, they wouldn’t last a second before turning into ash!

Indeed, fire-attributed exotic beasts were the strongest in terms of attack power!

After all the exotic beasts within a few thousand square meters were cleared, all kinds of beast cards slowly fell to the ground like leaves in deep autumn, shocking Zhao Wu’s group once more.

They had never seen a scene of beast cards falling like leaves before!

“Come, let’s go find the epic-quality exotic beast!” Zhang Che shouted while they were still stunned at the sight, charging forth once more.

As for the beast cards scattered everywhere, naturally the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon used his vacuum ability to suck them all in.

Truly, using the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s ability to pick things up was perfect. Zhang Che no longer had to waste any time and effort on that.

Zhao Wu and the others blanked out for a moment before answering and going after Zhang Che. “Ah? Okay…”

-Just look at Zhang-shao. He’s so different from others. Which other high-tier beastmaster dares to act like him, thinking the exotic beasts weren’t strong enough for him and continue charging into the deeper areas?-

More importantly, at this moment Zhao Wu and the others firmly believed that Zhang Che had the ability to handle any situation that might come their way. So what if the exotic beasts ahead were twice, or even thrice, as strong as this wave? Wouldn’t they be cleaned up by Zhang-shao easily regardless?

After this short battle, Zhao Wu’s group idolized Zhang Che, a kind of blind, unconditional admiration for him.

Zhang Che had no idea that he gained a few more middle-aged fans after that short battle. Of course, it was better if he didn’t know about it. If he knew, he wouldn’t know whether to laugh or cry…

Since a large area was cleared by the Scarlet Flame Drake, Zhang Che led the others and easily broke through the encirclement, killing their way deeper into Mt Fallen Star.

Whether those weak exotic beasts would turn back and give chase to them was not a problem at all. They had to be able to catch up to them to be a problem. Moreover, Zhao Wu’s group was guarding their rear.

Although they were weak compared to Zhang Che, they were high-tier beastmasters who possessed legend-quality subdued beasts, after all. It was totally not a problem for them to guard a direction, especially when most of those exotic beasts were only mid-tier gold-quality and lower.

Just like that, the group steadily pushed their way forward. Although they weren’t moving quickly, they were indeed progressing through the dense numbers of exotic beasts.

In Zhao Wu and the others’ opinion, this was already quite a difficult feat to achieve. If a few other high-tier beastmasters were in Zhang Che’s position instead, just see if they could do what he was doing…

It would already be considered not bad to not be pushed back by the wave of exotic beasts!

Soon, the group encountered the first legend-quality exotic beast on this trip.

It was a savage and huge beast standing over ten meters tall, its body emitting cold light and shining with a bronze luster. There were sharp spikes all over its body, the six of them on the front of its upper limbs like the sharpest steel swords, glinting coldly.

As a mid-tier legend-quality exotic beast, no other beasts dared to stand within dozens of meters of it, and it was immediately noticed by Zhang Che and the others.

After spotting this exotic beast, Zhang Che’s eyes lit up. -At long last! I finally found my first legend-quality exotic beast after travelling thousands of meters into Mt Fallen Star!-

It went without saying that sufficient respect should be given to existences of that level. As such, at Zhang Che’s command, the Scarlet Flame Drake immediately rushed forth.

What followed was tragic for this savage mini-boss exotic beast. Both its level and quality were lower than the Scarlet Flame Drake, in addition to suffering a natural restraint thanks to their conflicting elements. After a few rounds, the exotic beast was burned into a resplendent glow by the Scarlet Flame Drake.

After the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon retrieved the beast card, Zhang Che didn’t even spare a glance at it and tossed it to Zhao Wu, saying, “You guys use it first. We’ll surely come across stronger and stronger exotic beasts from here on out. Increasing your strength will help me better guard our rear.”

Zhang Che wasn’t trying to act generously. He truly didn’t think highly of Zhao Wu and the others’ strength, and thought it was necessary to strengthen them.

Afterwards, when they entered deep into Mt Fallen Star, more and more high-tier high-quality exotic beasts would surely appear. At that time, no matter how strong Zhang Che and his babies were, it would be incredibly exhausting to look out in all directions.

At present, while the exotic beast army were still weak and they could get a few legend-quality beast cards, it was very necessary to use them to boost Zhao Wu and the others’ strength!

“Thank you, Zhang-shao. Please rest assured. Even if we die, we won’t let the exotic beasts break through our defensive line and get behind you!”

Zhao Wu’s group was grateful. Their faces were so excited they couldn’t relax.

Indeed, Liu Gang’s squad was right. Following Zhang-shao had many unexpected benefits, and the surprises were endless!

As such, they expressed to Zhang Che, one after another, that he didn’t have to worry about his flanks.

Since the king was willing to treat them as a pillar of society, they’d definitely repay him in a manner expected of one! Although this saying was a little inappropriate here, Zhao Wu and the others understood the principle well.

“Alright, then. Let’s continue forward and strive to find the epic-quality exotic beast as soon as possible!” Zhang Che nodded, waving his hand.
