126: Mason's Story

"The Thunder Crystal Divine Beast has been subdued just like that?"

The beautiful NPC still couldn't believe it.

This Human Race youth's life-bound beast was too Heaven-Defying!

"It's just as I, the City Lord, expected. This kid has the ability to easily subdue the Thunder Crystal Divine Beast, but I didn't expect it to be this fast and this easy!"

Lei Ge laughed heartily.

Qin Yun recalled all his beasts to the Beast Taming Space, then looked at the strangely dressed NPC Mason, who was also the issuer of this Death God Level quest.

"An old pervert?"

These three words popped into Qin Yun's mind.

Otherwise, who would wear a doll hat, a red dress, and play with a Thunder Milk Ball in their hand?

Seeing Qin Yun looking at him with a strange gaze, Mason was not angry or petty. Instead, he appreciated Qin Yun's frankness and lack of pretension, unlike the previous Beast Tamers who came, all of whom were hypocritical to the extreme.

"Little Friend Qin, I am Mason. According to the requirements of the quest I issued, subduing the Thunder Crystal Divine Beast was the first step. I didn't expect you to complete it on your own."

"The previous Beast Tamer Geniuses all fell at this step, but this is unavoidable. My wish requires the help of the Thunder Crystal Divine Beast."

Although Mason looked like a pervert, his style of conduct was upright and honorable, and his words were full of righteousness.

"I wonder, Senior Mason, how should I proceed to fulfill your wish?"

Qin Yun put away his strange look; he knew that since the other party dressed this way, it must be related to his so-called wish.

The City Lord Lei Ge, who had wanted to kindly remind Qin Yun, saw Qin Yun looking at Lord Mason with a respectful gaze and grew even fonder of this powerful and respectful Human Race youth.

"Little Friend Qin, since you have already become the master of the Thunder Crystal Divine Beast, you are naturally qualified to hear my story."

As he spoke, Mason looked at City Lord Lei Ge.

City Lord Lei Ge immediately reacted: "Ah!!! Lord Mason, I understand. There is nothing left for me to do here; I will return to handle city affairs now."

"..."

Qin Yun had seen City Lord Lei Ge appear and thought the following quest plot was related to him; it turned out he was just a cameo NPC.

After City Lord Lei Ge and the beautiful NPC left, Mason began to briefly tell his story:

"I once had a happy family; my wife was as beautiful as a flower, and my son was just born, but everything was shattered in that Godfall War!"

"As a Genius new god, I naturally had to join the war to block the invasion of the Alien Beasts."

"I was targeted by a powerful Alien Beast God BOSS, and since my Rank was suppressed at the time, I was naturally no match for that Alien Beast God BOSS."

"In the end, I was severely injured and fell to the ground, but it didn't kill me. Instead, it killed my beloved wife and child. Perhaps this Alien Beast God BOSS enjoyed watching others struggle in pain while being powerless to do anything."

Speaking of this, Mason clenched his fists, his teeth chattered, and flames of extreme hatred erupted from his eyes.

"The red dress on me is the dress my wife loved most when she was alive, and this doll hat is the gift I hadn't yet had the chance to give my son for his first birthday."

Hearing this, Qin Yun was filled with admiration. The old NPC before him was an NPC who deeply loved his family.

Even after so long, he still loved his family deeply and never forgot to retrieve their remains. This was a respectable Senior NPC, but it seemed he had difficulty moving on.

"For the sake of revenge, and to retrieve my wife and son's remains in the future so they could rest in peace, I chose to become an NPC and became the secret guardian of Leiming City, with my Rank falling back to the sixth stage."

"But what I didn't expect was that a shattered bead would pierce through space, fall over Leiming City, and turn into a Thunder Sea, completely Sealing off Leiming City, making it impossible for all living beings inside to leave!"

"For so many years, I tried every method, but I couldn't step out of Leiming City until the Thunder Sea gave birth to a Thunder Crystal Divine Beast, which gave me hope. But I couldn't defeat it, let alone subdue it."

"Fortunately, Heaven does not disappoint those who work hard. I waited for you, an invincible Genius youth. With your assistance, I will surely be able to walk out!"

"Little Friend Qin, my wish is very simple. You come with me to a place of rule-based Seal, kill that damn Alien Beast God BOSS who is sealed there with me, and retrieve the remains of my wife and child."

"Do not worry about me being unable to act. Before becoming an NPC, I signed a contract with the rules. When it comes to my wish, the rules must yield and cannot restrict me. As a condition, I unconditionally obey the restrictions of the rules in other aspects, including sacrificing my Soul and Physical Body!"

What a domineering NPC!

Willing to give up everything to avenge his family!

"Senior Mason, what Rank is the Alien Beast God BOSS we are going to deal with now?"

"With the rule-based Seal, it is at most a tenth-stage Rank!"

"What? Tenth-stage Rank? Isn't that the Divine Rank?"

Qin Yun was speechless.

This is a Death God Level quest? This is clearly a suicide mission!

Asking him, a fifth-stage Beast Tamer, to deal with a tenth-stage deity—there's no way to fight this. No matter how many resurrection coins he has, it's just sending himself to death!

"Little Friend, don't panic. Once I leave Leiming City, I can also recover to the tenth-stage new god Rank. At that time, I will fight it, break its divine spark, and its Rank will naturally drop to around the sixth stage. Then, Little Friend, you will be able to fight it!"

Hearing this, Qin Yun was slightly relieved. As long as the opponent's Rank could be knocked down, it wouldn't be a big problem!

The more of these Rank-dropping deities Golden Niu consumes, the more awesome her Physical Body defense will be!

Perhaps!

Without waiting to become a god, Golden Niu could rival a deity based on her Physical Body defense alone.

"Senior Mason, there is no time to lose. What should I do to take you out of Leiming City?"

"It's very simple. You just need to raise the Rank of the Thunder Crystal Divine Beast. Once it reaches the fifth stage, it can control the location of the falling lightning, and we can ride it out of the area covered by the Thunder Sea."

"But there are no Alien Beasts here; it must be hard for the Thunder Crystal Divine Beast to level up, right?"

"This is even simpler. For today, I have long been fully prepared. Little Friend, wait here for a moment, and I will go make arrangements!"

At this moment.

Inside the Beast Taming Space.

The Thunder Crystal Divine Beast was using lightning techniques to massage the three of them, Jin Niu, with a face full of fawning and flattery.

It had thought that apart from Jin Niu, the master's other two beasts were average, and it could at least be the second-in-command.

But it didn't expect that whether it was the Seven-Colored Illusion Deer or the Azure Dragon Divine Beast, their uniqueness was not inferior to its own.

Moreover, both of them had received essence blood secretly gifted by Jin Niu and possessed the potential of a Sacred Beast, though it was in a hidden stage and had not yet been revealed.

"Jin Niu, Second Sister Little Deer, Third Brother Azure Dragon, how is my lightning massage technique?"

The Thunder Crystal Divine Beast's Heavy Thunder God Array talent was actually being used by him as a massage technique.

"Not bad! From now on, you are our fourth brother. Remember, the Master comes first in everything!"

Golden Niu reminded him.

"Understood! Jin Niu, please rest assured. Master comes first, and Jin Niu comes second!"

"A child worthy of teaching!"

Not long after.

Mason returned.

"Little Friend Qin, come with me!"
