152: Double panel Loz, set off for the country of cherry blossoms
Qin Yun did not hesitate and immediately chose the second reward!
The reason was simple!
He thought very highly of this brave NPC, NPC Loz!
Moreover, NPC Loz was very special; he could possess two attribute panels: one was the Divine-Grade NPC Moxiga Human Race Fire God Child panel, and the other was the Nether Abyss Beast—Three-Headed Ghost Wolf species Beast King-level BOSS panel!
He could possess the permissions of an NPC while also having the Physique and Bloodline of an Alien Beast. If utilized well in the future, he would definitely be a special existence with immense potential!
The key was that there would be no rules restrictions; it was likely a special reward granted by the rules, acknowledging the Moxiga Human Race's meritorious service in guarding the Bottomless Nether Abyss.
"NPC Loz, do you wish to follow me as an NPC, or enter a contract with me as a Beast Tamer?"
"Currently, I only have the Fire God Child's attribute panel, but my body is that of an Alien Beast. I would rather enter a contract with you, Big Boss, as a Beast Tamer!"
NPC Loz had just received a system prompt asking if he was willing to follow Qin Yun. He knew that staying in the Bottomless Nether Abyss would only lead to death; the other Alien Beast Gods, especially Gulam, would not let him off.
And Qin Yun was the most powerful Divine-Grade Beast Tamers Genius he had ever seen, and he possessed various bug-level items. Following such a big shot might allow him to rebuild the glory of the Moxiga Human Race in the future!
Therefore,
he agreed.
That was why he became one of the rules rewards!
"Alright then. Regardless of whether you are an NPC or a Beast Tamer, since you are following me, you are my partner, Qin Yun's partner. I will take you with me to the pinnacle of the world!"
Immediately.
NPC Loz voluntarily transformed into an Alien Beast egg. However, unlike other Alien Beast eggs, this one bore the brand of an NPC, with solar fire circulating within it.
Contract!
A perfect contract granted by the rules; Qin Yun could complete the process in one step and succeed immediately!
The next moment.
A petite, puppy-like Netherworld Three-Headed Wolf hatched. Its fur was dark green, and its pupils emitted ghostly green flames.
Although it was a Beast King-level BOSS, Qin Yun knew clearly that the Bloodline Rank of an Alien Beast could be upgraded.
And the method for upgrading was simple and crude: consume the blood of higher-level Alien Beasts. The more it consumed, the higher the probability of promotion!
In the future, when sweeping through the Beast Race Royal Family, he could let NPC Loz feast to his heart's content!
"Master, I have two forms. My normal form is this Nether Abyss Beast Netherworld Three-Headed Wolf form, but I can also transform into the Fire God Child form. However, the Fire God Child form requires the consumption of Beast Power to maintain, and the attribute panels differ between the two forms!"
Little NPC Loz said in a milky voice.
Qin Yun nodded.
This meant that in his Alien Beast form, Little NPC Loz had the attributes of a Beast King-level BOSS, while in his Fire God Child form, he had the attributes of an NPC.
"Golden Niu, Da Qing, Little Deer, Lei Bao, take good care of Little NPC Loz from now on!"
"Please rest assured, Master. We four will take care of Little Five together!"
Little NPC Loz was touched; it had been a long time since he had enjoyed such care.
Subsequently!
Qin Yun checked his own attributes and found that there wasn't much change.
It seemed that the flight ability did not add extra attributes; it only increased movement speed and added the ability to fly.
Fusion!
Qin Yun fused with Golden Niu and tested his current speed and flight ability.
To Qin Yun's surprise, his current flight speed was not inferior to that of a Rank 9 big shot. Moreover, he no longer needed to forcefully step on the air to fly; he could fly as he pleased, which was incredibly liberating!
In this light.
The Rank 7 flight ability was quite good.
After all, flying-type Beast Tamers were rare, and with such high flight speed, even if he couldn't defeat some high-Rank Alien Beasts, he could fly away to escape.
Because no matter what Beast Skill it was, there was an attack range. Once outside this range, even lock-on type Beast Skills would be ineffective.
Unless it was a Beast Skill like Infinite Devour that covered the entire map, but such a Beast Skill was unique in the world!
Qin Yun glanced at his Beast Skill bar, then waved his hand, randomly drawing a few Mythic-level exclusive Beast Skills to fill the empty slots, and spent gold coins to upgrade them all to Rank 7!
[Exclusive Beast Skills (All Mythic-level): ...Divine Toad Purifying Body (Support), Toad Shadow Divine Trace (Movement), Toad Cry Divine Explosion (Soul Attack), Toad Suction Divine Art (Support, absorbs target's Beast Power), Toad Poison Ten Thousand Li (Poison Attack), Divine Toad Counter-Shock (Defense)]
With this matter concluded.
Qin Yun returned to the guild and found Old Luo to upgrade his 9 pieces of equipment to Rank 7; only the Azure Dragon Sacred Edict Blade remained at Rank 5.
Qin Yun had looked for his future father-in-law and other big shots.
Although they had collected some of the three upgrade Materials—dragon gold scale, dragon silver whisker, and dragon heart essence—none were Rank 6, so they couldn't repair the Azure Dragon Sacred Edict Blade.
It was estimated that he would have to wait for the next opening of the Dragon Abyss Ancient Land to potentially collect them all.
Qin Yun looked around.
Su Taner and the others had not yet returned from completing their advancement quests.
Presumably, they had all accepted the Purgatory-difficulty Rank 6 advancement quests, which would take at least half a month or more.
Immediately, Qin Yun summoned back the three NPCs: General Manager Mei, Bili Si, and Sarata.
Now that the Shanhai Pavilion Guild had many new members, he let Old Bai, Old Luo, and Dragon Seat temporarily preside over the guild's recruitment matters, with other newcomers assisting.
He would take the NPCs on a trip to Sakura Country. While leveling up, he could also resolve potential threats to Great Xia and obtain information on the upgrade magic box!
"Dragon Seat, Old Bai, Old Luo, I will temporarily leave the affairs of Great Xia and the Shanhai Pavilion Guild for you to manage. I am going to Sakura Country for a trip!"
Qin Yun roughly explained the information he obtained from Han Xiaoli to Dragon Seat, giving him a heads-up so he could mobilize other big shots to be prepared in advance.
"I never expected that old beast Ink Heaven-Kindness would betray his countrymen for his own selfish gain! Sakura Country is collecting a large amount of blood from our country's Beast Tamers; there must be some malicious plan!"
Dragon Seat was furious and continued, "President Qin, will it be dangerous if you go alone? How about letting Old Yue or Old Su go with you?"
Qin Yun shook his head.
Not long ago, Su Wanjin led a team to wipe out the Beautiful Country detachment that occupied the main base of the Chilin Guild, shocking the world!
Furthermore, the two elders' identities were too sensitive; wherever they went, they would be watched by countries around the world, which would only expose his whereabouts.
Since he needed to investigate the secret behind Sakura Country's collection of his countrymen's blood, he couldn't be too high-profile; it was better to be low-key.
"That won't be necessary. I can go alone; it will be more convenient. Furthermore, I have advanced to Rank 7, and my strength has improved further. In the current Blue Star World, I fear no enemy!"
After speaking, Qin Yun set off alone with the NPCs and his contracted Beast Tamers.
Passing through the South Sea!
Qin Yun remembered that this area was occupied by an Eight-Stage Beast Emperor BOSS, the Sea Demon Dragon. He decided to pay a visit on the way, hoping that this Dragon Beast would drop dragon gold scale, dragon silver whisker, and dragon heart essence.
Not long after.
A great battle erupted in the South Sea, with seawater churning and giant waves endless.
But soon.
The battle subsided, and the seawater calmed.
A giant Sea Demon Dragon BOSS corpse floated to the surface.
"What a pauper! Only two pieces of Eight-Stage Legendary equipment!"
Qin Yun complained.
However, Qin Yun still had a smile on his face because this Sea Demon Dragon BOSS had dropped a Rank 8 dragon heart essence material.
This kind of special upgrade material only had a probability of dropping upon the first kill; it would not drop after respawning, only ordinary Materials and equipment would.
"A good start, my luck is not bad!"
Qin Yun continued on his way, low-key and in high spirits.
The Sea Demon Dragon BOSS's eyes were wide open, as if it died with a grievance. It didn't understand: even Great Xia's Rank 9 powerhouses found it hard to kill it, so why could a Rank 7 trash kill it instantly?
Not long after.
A group of elite troops from the Great Xia Military Beast Legion appeared and were shocked to see the corpse of the Eight-Stage Beast Emperor BOSS, the Sea Demon Dragon.
"The Eight-Stage Beast Emperor BOSS that has plagued the South Sea for years has been killed by someone?"
They immediately reported it.
Dragon Seat smiled slightly, knowing it was Qin Yun's doing, and ordered his men to take the opportunity to recover the Southern Region.
"It seems we can start the project to recover our lost territory early and reclaim all of Great Xia's occupied lands!"
