54: Little boy, I admit that you are strong, but I may be able to fight you!
"Damn it!"
The Dark One was startled and immediately darted away, putting some distance between himself and Qin Yun. He stared fixedly at Qin Yun, full of confusion: "You... when did you discover me?"
"What are you panicking about? I'm not going to hit you!" Qin Yun joked in a relaxed manner.
It turned out that back in the first Dragon Valley map, after Golden Niu had swept away all the Dragon Monsters, she had already detected the other party tailing them.
Qin Yun had simply told Golden Niu not to alert the enemy.
Now that he had discovered the other party could use special means to communicate over long distances, Qin Yun couldn't help but come and meet this mysterious Dark One!
Because the Dragon Abyss Ancient Land has rule-based shielding, long-distance communication is impossible under normal circumstances.
Otherwise, the new generation of the major powers could gather around a single person, and wouldn't need to worry about their safety.
At this moment, the other party's appearance was revealed.
He looked very similar to the Human Race, but with some differences; his skin was black, like obsidian, and it shone with a dark luster.
His information was also revealed: [Name: NPC Lei Tuo] [Hidden Identity: Dark Believer, follower of Beast God King Osi] [Rank: Tier 5 LV150]...
[Master, this guy is not a real NPC; he's a Dark Believer disguised as an NPC!] Golden Niu saw through the other party's hidden identity at a glance.
"By the way, what does 'Dark Believer' mean?" The rules had mentioned Dark Believers before, but Golden Niu shook her head; she didn't know.
Meanwhile, Bili Si and Sarata in the Beast Taming Space knew something about Dark Believers.
"Cloud Brother, they are fallen Beast Tamers who worship the Alien Beast God. They are also known as God Slaves or Dark Beast Tamers; they are a race that defected to the side of the Alien Beasts after being completely invaded by them!"
"This!!!" Qin Yun's gaze grew deep.
It seemed that the Beast Taming Rules choosing the Blue Star World was not a coincidence.
Before this, the Beast Taming Rules had also chosen intelligent races from other worlds, meaning there were Beast Tamers of other races.
Actually, when he first met Bili Si and Sarata, Qin Yun had already suspected this.
"Cloud Brother, to be honest, the dire beast world should really be called the Beast Taming World. It was just completely invaded by Alien Beasts, so it was renamed the dire beast world!" Sarata added.
"I see! So, the Alien Beasts are not native creatures of this world; they come from elsewhere and simply invaded this world!"
Combining this with the hints from the Incomplete Manual of Beast God Secrets, which stated that the Alien Beast Gods would break the Seal one after another within a hundred years, Qin Yun guessed that the dire beast world had once experienced a God War.
The guardians had been defeated and could only use the power of the rules to Seal the Alien Beast Gods!
As for whether that was truly the case, he would need to investigate further to find out.
Qin Yun asked, "Bili Si, Sarata, do you know why the Alien Beast Gods of the dire beast world were Sealed?"
But the two women shook their heads. "We don't know! It seems the records regarding this secret were suppressed."
Qin Yun stroked his chin.
It seemed he would need to properly explore the Forbidden Ground of the dire beast world in the future.
He would leave that matter alone for now; his current priority was to deal with the Dark Believers in front of him.
Their appearance in the Dragon Abyss Ancient Land must have a purpose.
At this moment, Lei Tuo put away his panic and smiled kindly. "Respected young warrior of the Human Race, it is a pleasure to meet you. My name is Lei Tuo, and I am an NPC. I have no ill intentions; I am just a wandering NPC!"
The Beast Taming Rules were very powerful; regardless of whether they were Beast Tamers or Alien Beasts, they could all communicate with each other under the influence of the rules.
"An NPC? Do you take me for a fool?"
Qin Yun did not intend to let the other party go.
He was also wondering if Golden Niu would spit out coins if he killed this Dark Believer!
Before killing him, he still needed to extract some information first.
"Stop pretending, Dark Believer. You might be able to deceive others, but you can't deceive me. Your hidden identity is useless before my Wisdom Eye!"
"..." Lei Tuo was stunned.
The leader on the other side was also completely confused; they couldn't understand how the other party had seen through their disguise.
They had to know, their disguise was flawless; even real NPCs couldn't see through it.
"I didn't expect the Human Race to produce such an incredible Genius Beast Tamer. However, Your Excellency, please do not worry; I have no ill intentions. I just happened to see your invincible strength, so I followed you out of curiosity!"
"I am a Dark Believer, but we have no direct conflict of interest. Furthermore, our purpose for entering this map is different from yours."
Lei Tuo had witnessed the terrifying strength of Qin Yun's beasts and knew he was no match for him, which was why he had conceded on the spot.
He was not some arrogant fool.
In fact, the Dark Believers were not fools. When they encountered an invincible existence, they would do everything in their power to avoid it.
"If you don't state your purpose, how do you know it's different from ours? Tell me your purpose and the information you have about this map. Otherwise, don't blame my toad for being merciless!"
Qin Yun still wore a smile, but at this moment, it gave Lei Tuo a demonic feeling.
Damn it! Who exactly was the villain here?
Theoretically, the Dark Believers were a special group that had defected to the side of the Alien Beasts.
They only obeyed the commands of the Alien Beast God they worshipped, making them the lackeys of the invaders and traitors to the world—they belonged to the villain faction!
Yet the Human Race youth before him was clearly a ruthless character!
He knew very well that if he didn't divulge the information he knew, or if he held anything back, the other party would kill him without hesitation.
He had considered immediately using the 'Dark Escape' Beast Skill to flee, but the coverage of the other party's Beast Skill spanned the entire map.
Where could he possibly escape to?
Previously, the other party had been targeting the Dragon Monsters, so he hadn't been affected by the devouring effect.
Now, things were different; since his whereabouts had been discovered, the other party could easily take his life.
Now, he could only pin his hopes on his leader, hoping the leader would allow him to reveal the information.
But that probability was very slim, because the leader was an even more ruthless character!
At this moment, the voice of the Dark Believer leader rang out from the dark object in Lei Tuo's hand: "Human Race kid, we have no grievances. Do not meddle in this, and let my subordinate go!"
"Let him go? Are you dreaming? If you don't state your purpose, I'll kill every one of you I see!" Qin Yun responded coldly.
"What a bold Human Race kid. Don't think that just because you've contracted a special Beast, you can act presumptuously before me. If you offend me, none of your Human Race's new generation will leave the Dragon Abyss Ancient Land alive!"
"Is that so? Then come and try!"
As he finished speaking, Qin Yun immediately ordered Golden Niu to attack.
Since the other party refused to reveal anything, keeping him alive was useless.
He would kill one first and see if it would spit out any coins.
"Damn it!" Lei Tuo's expression changed drastically.
But he had his faith; without the divine decree of the Alien Beast God or his leader's permission, he could not save his own life by revealing information.
He had no choice but to fight to the death!
Roar! A Beast that had been nourished by Dark Divine Power was summoned by Lei Tuo.
It was a dark leopard-type Beast, radiating a dark aura, and its combat power was not bad at all!
Furthermore, it possessed a special state similar to the [Dragon Abyss Power], which was a Divine Power state belonging to the Alien Beast God, and its attributes were far higher than those of a normal Beast Tamer's beasts!
"Kid, I admit you're strong, but that doesn't mean I can't fight you!"
Dark Believer Lei Tuo fused with his S-Rank life-bound Beast, the [Black-Patterned Blood Leopard], and transformed into a dark leopard-man.
His disguise fell away, and he radiated a dark, evil aura.
He was extremely ferocious and bloodthirsty, and there were dark Alien Beast God patterns on his face.
But! A few seconds later, this dark Beast, along with its Master, the Dark Believer Lei Tuo, were both swallowed by Golden Niu.
[Ding, devoured Dark Believer, triggered 10x Lucky Critical Hit, spat out Gold Coins X300000!]
[Ding, triggered other currency, extra output: resurrection coin X3000!]
[Ding, triggered other currency, extra output: Equipment Coin X10!]
Damn? That's so powerful? Killing one Dark Believer! It spat out everything?
"Kid, I will find you!!"
"Then you'd better hurry! Remember to bring all your subordinates with you!"
"..."
