He subconsciously held his breath.
"Chirp!" The Tuan Tuan standing on his shoulder had the exact opposite reaction. Its round eyes suddenly burst into a bright light, and it cried out excitedly. It flapped its wings and rushed towards the giant python.
Xie Sen hurriedly shouted, "Tuan Tuan, come back!"
The Tuan Tuan hesitated and stopped in mid-air. It turned half of its body and turned to look at Xie Sen. It raised its right wing and pointed at the giant python. It said in a brisk tone, "Chirp chirp chirp chirp!"
Xie Sen had seen it react like this many times, but it had always pointed at melon skin with its wing before!
He looked at the Tuan Tuan in disbelief. It was too daring! Its whole body was only the size of a palm. Did it want to eat the giant python?
"It's too dangerous." He shook his head disapprovingly.
The giant python continued to move towards the foot of the mountain. Its body pressed down on all kinds of low plants along the way. Its tail swayed randomly, and the thinner trees were easily snapped by it. It was as if a strong wind had passed through.
Fortunately, the foot of the mountain was circular. The direction in which the giant python was moving was to the left of Xie Sen. The lowest point in that direction was about seven or eight meters away from where Xie Sen was. Even if the giant python reached the foot of the mountain, it wouldn't notice them for a while.
Xie Sen whispered, "Let's leave first?"
MeiIn nodded and walked along the right side of the mountain with him. After two steps, Xie Sen found that the Tuan Tuan wasn't following them. He looked back and saw that the Tuan Tuan was still looking at the giant python with a drooling look.
Xie Sen whispered, "Tuan Tuan, let's go!"
The Tuan Tuan reluctantly looked at the giant python and flew back to Xie Sen's shoulder.
Xie Sen and MeiIn walked for a while until they reached the other side of the mountain. After making sure that the giant python couldn't see them, Xie Sen nodded the Tuan Tuan's head and whispered, "That's a contract beast. You can't eat it! Besides, you're still a young bird. Its skin looks very hard. You can't eat it. "
"Chirp ~" The Tuan Tuan looked disappointed.
MeiIn said, "There's something wrong with the Giant Python. The Giant Python is huge, but it's gentle. It looked very manic just now."
Xie Sen touched his burning right shoulder and said, "It should be affected by the energy." He stopped and looked at the stone mountain wall. "We have walked a long distance around the foot of the mountain, but the position of the energy has not changed."
MeiIn immediately understood. "In the center of the mountain?"
Xie Sen nodded. "That's the only explanation. The foot of the mountain is circular. We walked along the edge, and only the midpoint remained the same. We just don't know if it's in the mountain or underground."
MeiIn: "According to what you said before, the energy won't be on the surface. It can only be brought inside by living creatures. So no matter where it is, there must be an entrance."
Xie Sen nodded. "Let's walk around the mountain and see if there's an entrance."
The two continued to walk forward. After walking for a while, they walked half a circle around the foot of the mountain and arrived at a position opposite the foot of the mountain. Along the way, the two looked around and focused on the mountain wall. However, they did not see any entrance.
At this time, their position was connected to another mountain. The mountain was very high and there were many tall trees. The vegetation was very dense.
"If we walk around this stone mountain and still don't find an entrance, we have to start from the mountain next to it." Xie Sen thought and looked down at the ground. "Maybe there's a path underground."
MeiIn: "Well, it's still early today. If we don't find it before we go back tonight, we'll invite someone to come and open the mountain tomorrow."
As the two were talking, the Tuan Tuan suddenly cried out excitedly, "Chirp!"
Xie Sen looked up and saw the Giant Python not far in front of them. He couldn't help but sigh. They actually met face to face! Looking at the direction the Giant Python was heading, it was obvious that they had drawn a complete circle with the Giant Python at the foot of the mountain.
MeiIn's footsteps suddenly stopped. She took a few steps back with Xie Sen and then stepped forward to block in front of Xie Sen. She took out a dagger from her backpack and looked at the Giant Python warily.
This was a mountainous area. If the Giant Python attacked them, they wouldn't be able to escape. It was better to fight back.
The Giant Python felt their presence and suddenly stopped moving. Its head suddenly stood up and its eyes fell on MeiIn.
The next moment, it twisted its body and approached MeiIn.
"Chirp!" Seeing the Giant Python approaching, the Tuan Tuan happily flew onto the Giant Python's body and lowered its head to peck it.
"Chirp!" The Giant Python's skin was as hard as iron. When it pecked, the Tuan Tuan Tuan Tuan's beak was shocked by the reaction force. It cried out in pain and raised its round head. Its right wing covered its beak and it used its claws to catch the Giant Python.
The Giant Python did not feel the slightest pain. Its movements did not slow down at all. It quickly approached MeiIn and stopped two meters away from MeiIn.
As it got closer, the pressure from its body became even stronger.
MeiIn clenched the dagger in her hand and did not act rashly. Normally, contracted beasts would not take the initiative to attack humans. However, if humans attacked them, they would definitely not hesitate to fight back.
The Tuan Tuan angrily flapped its wings and landed directly on the Giant Python's head. It stepped on its claws and cried, "Chirp chirp chirp!"
"Hiss ~ ~ ~" The Giant Python shook its head as if it was responding to something.
The Tuan Tuan Tuan tilted its head and cried back and forth with the Giant Python. Suddenly, a loud sound came from the ground. The sound was deep and had a great pressure. The people who heard it could not breathe. At the same time, the ground shook.
MeiIn hugged Xie Sen and covered his ears. She looked at the ground warily.
The Giant Python's head instantly rose higher. In the next moment, it fell to the right and swam quickly towards the mountain on the right. Its body was more than ten meters long. When it turned its tail, it swept MeiIn and Xie Sen.
MeiIn hugged Xie Sen and retreated. The two of them were lightly swept by the tip of the Giant Python's tail. Neither of them were injured.
The Giant Python's speed suddenly stopped. It turned its head and retreated. Its tail quickly swept past their calves again. Then, it cleverly wrapped itself around Xie Sen's ankle.
MeiIn's expression turned cold. She held the dagger and quickly slashed at the Giant Python's tail. Xie Sen hurriedly said, "Don't do it." MeiIn stopped and stared at his foot. Xie Sen said, "It didn't use any strength. The feeling it gave me was that it had good intentions."
The Giant Python turned its head. Its head quickly moved to a meter away from them. Its height was exactly the same as Xie Sen's height. "Hiss ~ ~ ~"
Xie Sen's whole body was covered in goosebumps. Although he knew that the Giant Python had no ill intentions, he could not help but feel afraid.
"Chirp!" Tuan Tuan grabbed Xie Sen's sleeve with its claws and pulled it in the direction of the Giant Python. It pointed at the Giant Python with its wings.
Xie Sen asked, "You want us to go with it?"
Tuan Tuan nodded its small head.
Xie Sen looked at MeiIn. "It was affected by the energy. Maybe it knows where the energy is. I want to follow it."
MeiIn said, "Let's go together."
The Giant Python rubbed MeiIn's ankle and then let go. It led the way in front. From time to time, it looked back to make sure that Xie Sen was following it.
It climbed to a height of five meters from the ground and then turned left. After going around half of the mountain, it stopped beside a tree that was wide enough for two people to wrap their arms around it. It curled its body into a ball so that it did not take up as much space.
Xie Sen looked at the hole behind the tree and was stunned.
The Giant Python let out a soft cry and rushed into the hole.
MeiIn took out the lighting equipment and followed behind it with Xie Sen. After entering, there was a wide road that looked like a modern culvert. The whole underground area was connected in all directions and there were many forks in the road.
The deeper they went, the brighter the light became. There were all kinds of fluorescent ores piled up in the corners. There were also many inlaid on the walls. It was very shiny and very beautiful. After walking for about half an hour, the Giant Python stopped when the peony on Xie Sen's shoulder was almost at its peak.
In front of them was a huge circular area. It was very high and very large. It was filled with golden ores that were dazzling to the eye.
On top of the ores, there was a huge black dragon. Its body was huge, with a diameter of nearly 1.5 meters. Its whole body was covered in golden scales that reflected the surrounding golden ores.
Xie Sen was stunned. He even suspected that he was seeing things.
"Wyvern." MeiIn's voice could not hide the surprise.
The black dragon's huge eyes blinked. It opened its mouth and let out a dragon's roar. Its curious and surprised voice sounded in Xie Sen's mind. "Human?"
"It's here!" A Dan's excited voice also sounded in Xie Sen's mind.
Xie Sen looked at the golden ore under the black dragon's right front claw and stroked his burning right shoulder. He could feel that the earth energy was in that extremely bright ore.
He comforted the excited A Dan. "Yes, I can feel it."
He looked at the black dragon and asked, "Can you understand me?"
The black dragon swung its tail and scattered the ores everywhere. "So what if I can understand you? You can't understand me."
Xie Sen sighed in relief. It was good that it could communicate. "I can."
"Huh?" The black dragon raised its huge head and looked at him in surprise. "You're so strange. How can you understand me?"
Xie Sen pointed at the golden ore under its claw. "There's my energy in that ore. You're holding it, so we can communicate."
The black dragon dug into the ore with its claw. "I won't give you the shiny ore."
Xie Sen looked at the golden ores around him and then looked at the black dragon protecting its treasure. He suddenly remembered a rumor that dragons liked shiny things. It seemed that the rumor was true.
MeiIn saw him looking around and explained, "These are all gold crystal ores."
Xie Sen was stunned. "These are the gold crystal ores that Huo Feng Company wants to purchase?"
MeiIn nodded. "The missing ore might be here."
The black dragon suddenly let out a loud roar. It was the same roar that Xie Sen heard at the foot of the mountain, but this time, it was closer and the impact was stronger. "These are my treasures. You can't take them away!"
MeiIn covered Xie Sen's ears in time and hugged him tightly. Xie Sen grabbed MeiIn's arm and looked up at him worriedly. "Are you okay?"
MeiIn shook his head. Xie Sen was relieved and looked at the black dragon. "You and the python are here. We can't take them away. You're too close to the energy and will be affected. How are you feeling now? "
The black dragon laid its head on the ore. "I'm sorry. I don't want to hurt you. I just lost control of my emotions. My mind has been very unstable recently. I can only calm down when I see these shiny ores. So I can't give them to you."
Xie Sen couldn't help but think that the flying rhinoceros controlled its emotions by dousing it with water, but the wyvern actually looked at shiny ores. Was this based on its hobby?
"I don't want these ores. I just need to take back the energy. Energy is not physical. Even if I take it back, the ores will still be here." Xie Sen added, "The longer you stay close to the energy, the stronger the effect will be. In the future, even if you look at shiny ores, you won't be able to control it."
The black dragon knew that he was right. It could feel that the longer it stayed close to the energy, the worse its mental state became. It blinked its big eyes. "You're not lying to me? If you take back the energy, these ores won't disappear? "
"They won't," Xie Sen said with certainty.
The black dragon hesitated for a moment, then raised its head and said fiercely, "If you lie to me, I will kill you."
Xie Sen was helpless. This black dragon even knew how to threaten people. "I won't lie to you."
The black dragon lowered its head and used its claws to push the ores out. It rubbed its chin on the ores for a while. "Come here."
Xie Sen smiled at MeiIn. "Don't worry. I'll go and take back the energy."
MeiIn said, "I'll go with you." He followed closely behind Xie Sen to ensure that he would be able to act in time if anything happened.
Xie Sen walked closer. The black dragon's head was very close. Xie Sen saw himself in its eyes, which were like a mirror.
He reached out and placed his hand on the ores. The black dragon tilted its head, and its whiskers rubbed against his arm. It said in surprise, "Oh, so comfortable! You make me feel more comfortable than looking at shiny gold. "
Xie Sen didn't reply. The moment he touched the ores, a surge of energy flowed from his arm to his shoulder. The energy was too strong, and he couldn't speak for a while.
Soon, A Dan shouted energetically, "A Sen, you're awesome. The earth energy has been successfully recovered!"
Xie Sen sighed in relief. Just as he was about to withdraw his hand, the black dragon rubbed its head against his arm and wrapped its whiskers around his wrist. "You're so amazing. I want to lean against you. It's very comfortable."
Xie Sen reached out and touched its chin. "This is because I have a natural aura on my body. Look, the ores are still there."
The black dragon rubbed its chin against his hand and squinted its eyes comfortably. "Okay."
"Bang!" The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground suddenly came from behind the black dragon.
Xie Sen took a step to the side and turned his head to look. He was shocked. A dinosaur?
He saw that there was a wide passage opposite the way they came. A three-meter-long creature with a small head and a long tail walked in from there. It looked like a dinosaur. It was tilting its body and throwing down pieces of gold crystal ores from its back.
That's where the sound came from.
The black dragon's voice was very happy. It turned its head and said, "Ah Jia is awesome! So many shiny things! "
After the ores were thrown down, Xie Sen realized that the creature's body was covered with golden scales. It wasn't a dinosaur.
MeiIn explained, "It's a giant armored beast. It's very good at burrowing underground."
Burrowing? Xie Sen immediately thought of the pangolin. He looked at the giant armored beast. Wasn't this an enlarged version of the giant armored beast?
The giant armored beast roared and turned to leave through the passage. The black dragon said, "Ah Jia, you don't have to look for shiny things anymore."
The giant armored beast turned back and lay down beside the black dragon. It looked at Xie Sen and MeiIn curiously.
The black dragon continued to rub its head against Xie Sen's hand. Xie Sen asked, "Can you slowly recover your mental state by looking at these ores?"
The black dragon said, "No, I can barely control it. I can't get emotional and I can't fight. Recently, Ah Mang has been fighting. Hmph, those beasts all want shiny things."
As it spoke, it wrapped its dragon whiskers around Xie Sen's wrist. "It might be useful to stay with you. Our ancestors said that after forming a contract with a beast master, we will feel the same and can calm our minds. It's strange, I don't feel the aura of a beast master from you."
"I'm not a wyvern beast master." Xie Sen thought of the Long Teng and asked, "Do you want to form a contract with me? I know a wyvern beast master. "
"I don't want him if he's too weak." The black dragon was disdainful.
Xie Sen said, "He's very strong. Why don't you give him a chance to try? It'll be good for your mental state. "
The black dragon pondered for a moment. "I can try, but I don't want to leave here. My shiny things are all here." It put its body in a circle and tried to keep the ores within its range.
Xie Sen felt a headache coming on. It was so obsessed with these shiny things. Would it be unwilling to leave even if the contract was successful?
He thought for a moment and said, "Why don't I get the brightest one so you can see it all the time? There are so many of them anyway. You won't be able to see most of them. "
"How can I see them all the time?"
Xie Sen looked at its dragon horns and suddenly thought of the forehead ornaments worn by beauties in ancient dramas. He had a flash of inspiration. "I'll tie a shiny ore with a string and hang it on the bridge of your nose. You can look at it whenever you want. You don't have to grab it with your claws all the time."
The black dragon's eyes lit up. "Really?"
"Yes, I'll make one for you to try. If it works, are you willing to leave here?" Xie Sen asked.
The black dragon tilted its head and looked around. "If I can see the shiny things at any time, I'm willing to leave. It'll be even better if I can take some with me."
Xie Sen was relieved when he heard this. He looked at the size of the dragon's forehead and found a suitable ore to give to MeiIn. "Can you smooth the edges a little?"
MeiIn nodded and took the ore. It quickly smoothed the protruding stone spikes and returned it to Xie Sen.
Xie Sen held the ore in his hand and placed his palm flat. He summoned rice and exchanged it for the sharpest rice. He ordered, "Attack the middle and pierce through it."
The next moment, the rice husks on the rice ears quietly fell off, revealing the white rice. Then, the rice grains quickly flew into the middle of the ore and came out on the other side in the blink of an eye.
Because each grain of rice was too sharp, it became very thin. Therefore, the hole made by each grain of rice was very small. Fortunately, there was a lot of rice. When the diameter of the hole was about one centimeter, Xie Sen ordered them to stop.
He exchanged for a meter of watermelon vine and used the watermelon vine to fix the ore. Then, he tied the two ends of the watermelon vine to the black dragon's horn and let the ore fall slightly above the black dragon's nose. It didn't even need to lower its head to be able to see the ore.
The black dragon's ferocious appearance was destroyed by the ore and looked a little funny.
The black dragon didn't notice it at all. It cried out in surprise, "That's amazing. Why didn't I think of it before!"
It pushed the golden ore that was used as the energy carrier of the earth. "I want this one. This is brighter."
Xie Sen did the same. He drilled the golden ore and then removed the ore hanging on the black dragon's horn and replaced it with a golden ore.
The black dragon was even happier. Its tail swayed happily from side to side. It tilted its head and said, "To thank you, I'll give you a treasure cave! Follow me. "
The black dragon flew in the air and led the way. Xie Sen pulled MeiIn and followed. The Giant Python and the Giant Armored Beast followed behind them. The Tuan Tuan didn't give up and stepped on the Giant Python's forehead. The Giant Python didn't feel any pain and let the Tuan Tuan Tuan step on its forehead. The Giant Python didn't feel any pain and let the Tuan Tuan Tuan step on its forehead.
After walking for a while, the black dragon turned its head and scurried in front of Xie Sen. "When I move, my spirit starts to fluctuate. I can't even look at the ore." It descended from the air. "Sit on me. I'll feel comfortable next to you. Also … you're too slow!"
Xie Sen suddenly felt disgusted. He shook the hand holding MeiIn and said, "Let's sit together, okay?"
"Okay."
Xie Sen and MeiIn sat together on the dragon's back. MeiIn hugged him tightly from behind. Xie Sen looked at the naked dragon's back and touched the phosphorescent shell. "Don't go too fast. I'll slip off!"
The black dragon said, "No." The phosphorescent shell beside Xie Sen's hand suddenly protruded. The black dragon said, "Hold on tight."
Xie Sen grabbed the protruding phosphorescent shell and was a little worried. "Will it be pulled off?"
The black dragon's reply was a light snort. Xie Sen knew that he was being disliked again.
After sitting on the back of the black dragon, its speed became extremely fast. It skillfully flew around the underground tunnels that extended in all directions. Xie Sen looked back and saw that the Giant Python Beast and the Giant Armored Beast were following closely behind and had not been shaken off.
He was indeed holding them back.
After about 20 minutes, the black dragon stopped in another large underground space. It was very similar to the place it had been in before. It was full of gold crystal ores, but there were fewer of them.
"This used to be my territory. The last time I went out to play, I accidentally saw this ore." It shook its head, and the ore on its forehead shook. "After I grabbed it, I didn't want to put it down. If I moved it, my spirit would fluctuate, so I stayed there."
"After that, my temper became very bad. I would only calm down when I looked at the sparkles. Ah Jia found a lot of sparkles and put them next to me. Many beasts were attracted by the sparkles and wanted to fight for them, but they were all dealt with by Ah Mang."
Xie Sen came to a realization. He roughly understood why the gold crystal ores had suddenly decreased. Sokratos had taken the blame for the black dragon.
He conveyed the black dragon's words to MeiIn. He looked at the ore and laughed. "Do you think we should let him take the blame?"
Sokratos, who they mentioned, happened to be thinking about them. After half a month of investigation by the military, Sokratos was officially released this morning.
Although the decrease in gold ores coincided with the time he took office, it was not easy to hide so many ores. Such a big movement would definitely give him away, and the investigation showed that Sokratos couldn't do it.
As soon as Sokratos was released, he received a call from Soria. Soria had been in contact with him for the past few days. This time, he finally picked up. Before he spoke, he cried bitterly. "You must avenge Ruilo!"
Soria told him about Ruilo with a voice full of hatred. "I've been paying attention to MeiIn's whereabouts. Yesterday, he went to Ore Planet A with the people from Dazzling Company. Maybe he went there for you. You must act first. Don't let him come back alive!"
Sokratos was shocked. "He's that bold?"
Soria screamed. "I've said it before. He's a demon. He killed Ruilo, and now he wants to kill you. He's taking revenge!"
Sokratos's eyes flashed with hatred. "Don't worry. I won't let him come back alive. It doesn't matter if he's an S-rank Beast Master. He hasn't formed a contract yet. He's not my opponent."
He hung up and walked out of the room. He asked his subordinates about the movements of the new batch of people from Dazzling. When he heard that MeiIn and Xie Sen had entered the mountains, he smiled. This was a godsend opportunity.
"Get the aircraft. I'm going to the mountains to relax and get rid of the bad luck."
Huo Feng brought Xue Yue to the mountains closest to the safe zone to play. Xue Yue became excited after entering the mountains. It rubbed against Huo Feng and laid down with its back facing him. Huo Feng rubbed its neck and sat on its back.
After he sat down, Xue Yue sprinted in a certain direction. Huo Feng asked in surprise, "What are you doing?"
"There's a strong force attracting me."
It was extremely fast. It sprinted along the foot of the mountain like a white phantom. Huo Feng looked around and suddenly realized something. He opened his wristband and opened the map. He quickly realized that Xue Yue was moving in the direction of Xie Sen and the others' destination.
They were getting closer and closer to their destination. An aircraft flew over their heads. Huo Feng looked up and frowned. This wasn't the aircraft that had picked up Xie Sen and the others.
Suddenly, a dragon's roar was heard. Even the ground shook. Xue Yue paused for a moment, then continued running.
Not long after, it suddenly stopped. "It disappeared."
"Disappeared?" Huo Feng was puzzled. "Why did it suddenly disappear?"
Xue Yue wagged its tail. "A Sen must have taken it back. Sigh, I thought I'd be smarter after staying for a while. Anyway, I don't have to worry about mental problems now that we're bonded."
Huo Feng was even more puzzled. "Smarter?"
Xue Yue told him about the red energy. "Fortunately, A Sen helped us. Otherwise, our minds would have been messed up and we might have killed each other in the end."
Huo Feng said, "I see." He opened his wristband to contact Xie Sen, but found that there was no signal between him and MeiIn. He rubbed Xue Yue's neck. "Let's walk around. He must be nearby if he just took back the red energy."
The people on Socatto's aircraft also heard the dragon's roar. The pilot's hands began to tremble. "Colonel, there are ferocious beasts in the mountains. It's too dangerous. Also, it's not easy to land here."
Socatto looked out the window. "It's better if there are ferocious beasts. I hope they can be swallowed." He pondered for a moment. "Let's not land. We might not be able to find them even if we go down. Let's fly slowly nearby and guard them. If they want to go out, there will definitely be aircraft coming to pick them up."
"Colonel, you're smart!" The confidant who came with him immediately praised.
The aircraft flew slowly nearby. Socatto and his confidant had been observing the situation on the ground. Suddenly, something appeared in their field of vision. One confidant said, "Colonel, there's someone."
Socatto took out his binoculars. "It's not MeiIn. It's Huo Feng. What is he doing here?"
"Oh my god!" Socatto stared at Huo Feng and pondered. The pilot suddenly let out a cry of surprise.
Socatto turned his head when he heard the sound. He saw a huge black dragon flying into the sky from below. In the blink of an eye, it flew to the side of their aircraft's ground window. It curiously looked inside the window, then flew away nimbly.
"Oh, oh, oh, there's someone inside." The black dragon was very excited. "Hahaha, the feeling of flying is still the best. I'm almost bored to death in the cave!"
"Colonel …" One of the confidants nervously swallowed his saliva. "That's a Wyvern, right?"
Another confidant also swallowed his saliva. "It seems like there are two people on its back."
The pilot trembled. "The one behind it seems to be MeiIn."
