Da Zi retracted his gaze, and Gao Peng arrived at the bottom of the cliff.
The Zombie Deer had been scared away when the battle broke out. Chen Hanqiao climbed down the cliff, still in shock.
He ran towards Gao Peng, his face full of shame. "I'm sorry, I …" Chen Hanqiao opened his mouth, but no words came out.
Gao Peng looked at him deeply and smiled. "It's okay. Their real target was me. Even if they didn't look for you, they would've looked for someone else. Speaking of which, I'm the one who dragged you down."
Chen Hanqiao could only smile bitterly. He didn't know what to say.
A burly middle-aged man walked up from behind Chen Hanqiao. His bones were thick, and his eyes were bright. Although his face was injured, his complexion looked good.
"Courage comes from shame. It's just a setback. There's still a long way to go! It's only five years from the beginning of the Cataclysm. We still have a chance to make a comeback. "The middle-aged man patted Chen Hanqiao's shoulder.
Chen Hanqiao looked up. Clearly, he still couldn't let go of the death of his familiar.
The death of a familiar would cause damage to its soul. A scholar had done an experiment and found that the soul power a monster trainer gained from cultivating a familiar would completely dissipate when the familiar died. At the same time, the monster trainer's soul would also be affected to a certain extent. Of course, it could also be understood as a period of weakness.
However, if the monster trainer's soul power was already very strong, the remaining soul after the familiar's death would still be strong.
The duration of this period of weakness would be infinitely shortened, or even reduced to "zero."
"Thank you for saving us!" the middle-aged man said to Gao Peng seriously.
This man had a special charm that made it easy for people to trust him. Perhaps this was why he was able to become the leader of a monster hunting group.
"This has nothing to do with you. The ones who ambushed us and killed our familiars were these people and the people behind them. We only have ourselves to blame for being too weak. This world has always been the law of the jungle. Being weak is the original sin! But this ambush … we won't let it go so easily! "the middle-aged man said in a low voice.
Hearing his father's words, Chen Hanqiao's eyes shone with a different light.
He clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth, "I must avenge the Electric Luster Bear! It's only been five years. There's still the next five years, and the five years after that. Sooner or later, I'll find justice. "
After that, the middle-aged man cupped his fist and said goodbye to Gao Peng. He then led the rest of the monster hunting group out of the forest.
At the same time, the middle-aged man let out a long howl. In the next moment, the ground beneath him split open, and a Commander class Earthwalker Devilpuppet with only half of its body left emerged from the ground. The Earthwalker Devilpuppet coiled up in front of the middle-aged man and rubbed its large head against him. The middle-aged man seemed surprised.
"I'll send you back," Gao Peng said.
The middle-aged man did not insist and nodded silently.
On the way, Gao Peng learned that the man's name was Chen Nianhua, and that he was an overseas Chinese. When the Cataclysm happened, he had brought his son back to his country to pay respects to his ancestors. After the Cataclysm, he stayed behind with his son.
Gao Peng asked them if they wanted to join Southern Sky Group. Gao Peng really admired Chen Nianhua.
"We have nothing now. The whole monster hunting group has nothing … I also just canceled the Blood Contract with this familiar." Chen Nianhua pointed at the Earthwalker Devilpuppet.
After being ambushed by the mysterious person, the Commander class familiars were all dead. Even the Earthwalker Devilpuppet was cut in half. If it wasn't for its abnormal vitality, it would have fallen to the same fate as the other familiars.
In order not to be a burden to his familiar, Chen Nianhua let the Earthwalker Devilpuppet escape by burrowing into the ground. At the same time, he canceled the Blood Contract with it.
"I can't believe you didn't leave. Back then, I used a trap to catch you and sign a Blood Contract with you. All these years, you've been ignoring me. I thought you hated me." Chen Nianhua sighed. He didn't expect it to come back.
The Earthwalker Devilpuppet coiled up on the ground. It lowered its head and gently nudged Chen Nianhua's abdomen.
Seeing that Chen Nianhua didn't move, it nudged Chen Nianhua's palm.
Chen Nianhua sighed. He took out a dagger from his trousers and cut his finger. He pressed it on the Earthwalker Devilpuppet's head.
"It's enough that your familiar is willing to sign a Blood Contract with you for a second time."
Desolion jumped down from Gao Peng's arms and landed on a carpet of fungi. With a stomp of its paw, the Metal-Devouring Symbiotic Moss froze. With a sweep of its paw, the Metal-Devouring Symbiotic Moss turned into ice shards. As if it had done something insignificant, Desolion jumped back into Gao Peng's arms.
A dragon claw stopped Desolion. Da Zi lowered its head and looked at Desolion, then slowly shook its head.
Back at the Southern Sky Group, Gao Peng asked someone to bring Chen Hanqiao and the others downstairs to change their clothes and take a hot bath to rest.
"So it's these two ducks … and these two people?" Xiao Huang glanced at them with disdain. "Da Zi, you're getting weaker and weaker. You don't deserve to be my opponent anymore."
So Gao Peng went out this time to deal with these two people. Luckily, Xiao Huang didn't go.
"No, I killed three Lord-tier familiars this time. Isn't that right, Gao Peng?" Da Zi was very angry.
Gao Peng nodded. "Yes, Da Zi did kill three Lord-tier familiars."
"Oh?" Xiao Huang's face showed a hint of surprise.
Then it turned its head, leaving the back of its head bare. "Hahahahaha ~" Xiao Huang looked up at the sky and laughed loudly.
Gao Peng, "???"
Da Zi, "???"
What kind of weird TV series has this guy been watching recently?!
Xiao Huang always sneaked into the home theater to watch movies. To be honest, Gao Peng and Ji Hanwu didn't use this home theater much, but Xiao Huang went there quite frequently.
He had Flamy carry him and drag the two unconscious black-robed masked men to the riverbank.
As soon as they reached the riverbank, the water surface surged violently.
Some fish, snake, and turtle monsters popped their heads out. For a moment, the water surface was a mess.
Flamy's eyes turned cold.
A ripple appeared on the water surface, and then a bald head floated out of the river.
The surrounding monsters all shouted, "Daddy, daddy ~"
Gao Peng, "…"
Why are all my familiars so abnormal?! They weren't like this when I first came into contact with them!
"Master, I taught them well, didn't I?" Growing Brain said smugly. "Come, call me grandpa."
"Grandpa, grandpa ~" The monsters shouted at Gao Peng again.
After receiving Growing Brain's mental sharing, Gao Peng could understand what the monsters were saying.
"Come, call Big Cousin Yan."
"Big Cousin Yan, Big Cousin Yan," the monsters shouted in unison.
"Stop fooling around. I have something important to talk to you about. You should be able to read their memories, right?"
"I can, but it's very rough. Most of the monsters who use this method will become idiots," Growing Brain said.
