201: Save people

He was a Senior Beastmaster, but he couldn't kill the Phantom Jellyfish so easily.

After a moment of internal struggle, the man in the trench coat put away his dagger, intending to continue tracking.

They needed complete certainty; failure was not an option for this mission!

However, when the man in the trench coat looked ahead again, his heart sank.

The person was gone; he had lost them!

"Are you looking for me?"

Behind him, the sudden appearance of a voice made the man in the trench coat turn around sharply!

He saw Gu Yan standing right behind him, sword in hand!

"How could you..."

"How could I find you?" Gu Yan finished the other party's sentence, then shook his head without giving an explanation.

After all, he wouldn't tell everyone who asked that he had a System.

"Bang~"

The man in the trench coat's feet pushed off the ground, and he suddenly darted backward.

At the same time, he threw out two contracted beasts.

He wanted to run!

This was the correct decision.

Unfortunately, it was already too late.

Gu Yan's calves instantly became covered in dense layers of blood-red flesh buds.

With the power of the demon blood infused, he directly dodged the attacks of the Big-Mouth Frog and Ink Bamboo Cricket in front of him.

Twisting his body, he rapidly closed in on the man in the trench coat!

The two contracted beasts, after reacting, increased their speed sharply.

They clearly wouldn't let Gu Yan approach their Master so easily.

But just as the two of them were about to catch up to Gu Yan, a small walnut suddenly grew larger and larger in their eyes...

"Boom!"

A strong shockwave, accompanied by the milky scent of walnuts, spread out wildly.

The Nut Giant Cannon released by the Super Nut Hamster directly caused the two contracted beasts to be severely injured and fall to the ground!

Amidst the sweeping hurricane, the hamster with its cape fluttering landed in front of the two contracted beasts from the air.

One against two, instantly defeating the opponents, this was the ability of an SSS-grade contracted beast!

In the thick fog ahead.

Gu Yan's speed was extremely fast!

The long sword in his hand lifted layers of afterimages, instantly resting on the man in the trench coat's neck.

This made the other party completely dare not move a muscle.

"Speak, who sent you, and what is your purpose?!"

Cold sweat dripped down his face; the man in the trench coat hadn't expected that the target's strength would be enough to completely overwhelm him!

Feeling the coldness on his neck, he said, extremely afraid of death, "I'll talk, I'll talk, don't kill me!"

...

...

In another part of the 71st District.

Duanmu Mingyue and Duanmu Shuangkui were completely bound.

Next to them were two young men, also dressed gorgeously but similarly tied up with ropes.

If anyone saw the situation here, they would surely be shocked!

This place had actually captured the direct descendants of three major families from Sky Vault Main City!

"Cough, cough, cough..."

The two young ladies of the Duanmu Family coughed continuously.

"What did you give us to eat?!"

Duanmu Shuangkui looked coldly at the man wrapped in thick clothes in front of her.

"We just gave you some medicine that can stimulate your primal desires."

The man looked at the two woman, with only the emotion of looking at meat on a chopping board in his eyes.

"Don't worry, we won't do anything to you."

"Giving you the medicine was just to prevent you from taking the opportunity to leave."

Listening to the man's words, the two sisters felt a speechless lump in their throats.

To prevent them from running, they were given that kind of medicine?

Feeling their bodies gradually heating up, they thought, what kind of medicine wouldn't be better than this one?

The two woman didn't know that in the original work, things happened to be this coincidental.

What was even more coincidental was that in the original work, Su Wei was precisely the one who rescued them.

How the protagonist later helped the two woman eliminate the effects of the medicine... it was already a matter of course.

However, now that Su Wei was in prison, things seemed to have changed.

In the thick fog.

Gu Yan wiped his blood-stained sword, left the body of the man in the trench coat behind, and then walked in a certain direction.

After learning a series of information from the man in the trench coat, he was also shocked.

He hadn't expected that the other party was from the Evil Cult organization that shouted 'mu centon'.

What was even more unexpected was that this organization had grown strong enough to target the direct descendants of the major families in Sky Vault Main City!

He wasn't the only one who had been ambushed.

"System, what is the origin of this Evil Cult organization?"

To Gu Yan, the System was omniscient and omnipotent.

Information that couldn't be obtained from the man in the trench coat would definitely have an answer from the System.

"Ding~ Relevant information for 'mu centon' has been found for the Host."

A line of text popped up on the System panel.

Organization: mu centon's Intent (Unlockable with 300 points)

Without hesitation, Gu Yan's points were deducted.

Subsequently, the information was displayed.

Organization: mu centon's Intent

Top Combat Power: One Fifth Order (Corresponding to Extraordinary Beastmaster)

Current Members: Greater than 10,000

Description: This is a group organization left behind by an alien civilization among Humans more than ten years ago. They worship an alien named mu centon from that time.

Recently, an existence from the alien civilization of that year has revived! Its revival has re-condensed the entire organization.

Member Characteristics: Imitating the aliens who were in the Human World back then, all members of the organization wrap themselves in thick clothing.

The brief introduction gave Gu Yan a clear understanding.

Who could have imagined that the alien civilization, which he originally thought was impossible to contact, had long since visited this World, and even founded an Evil Cult among Humans!

"System, is there any information about that revived alien?"

Gu Yan asking this wasn't because he wanted to take on the banner of fighting the aliens alone.

Rather than being a confused person, he preferred to have a clear understanding of everything.

The aliens, wanting to kidnap the high-ranking children in Sky Vault Main City, must have a purpose.

"Ding~ Does the Host need to consume 540 points to learn the details of the other party?"

Gu Yan rubbed his forehead helplessly.

"Ding~ Points deducted, current points: 3000."

He still spent the points.

After reading the information, he felt that the points were well spent!

Name: Heavenly Machine

Race: Mechanical Civilization

Strength: Fifth Order (Recovering)

Description: It is a super-god-level contracted beast created by mu centon. After being activated by Su Wei not long ago, it decided to fully assist Su Wei. Recently, Heavenly Machine is using 'mu centon's Intent' to help Su Wei completely enter the upper class!

The Host's current situation is Heavenly Machine's doing.

As soon as Su Wei saves all the kidnapped people, their goal will be achieved.

The situation completely exceeded expectations.

Evil Cult, Heavenly Machine, and then Su Wei!

"Is this the protagonist's treatment?"

Su Wei almost didn't need to do anything himself; all good things would be arranged for him!

In reality.

In the original work, the situation was that Su Wei fell in love with the two young ladies of the Duanmu Family, and because his identity was not recognized by the Duanmu Family, Heavenly Machine had this idea.

Without Su Wei's knowledge, he very smoothly rescued the two young ladies and the descendants of the other two top wealthy families, and then Su Wei naturally became the benefactor of the major families.

Everywhere he went, there were crowds of people flattering him.

...

Ye Tian remembered a conversation between Su Wei and Heavenly Machine in the original work, which left a deep impression on him.

At that time, with Heavenly Machine's help, Su Wei had already reached the realm of Beast Taming Grandmaster.

Su Wei: "The major families treating me as a honored guest back then, that was all your doing, right?"

Heavenly Machine: "Isn't this what Master needs?"

Su Wei: "Do you think you understand me very well? What I need is just a sufficiently powerful contracted beast, not a contracted beast with self-thinking ability!"

...

Perhaps, it was this passage in the original work that made Ye Tian abandon the idea of binding Su Wei as the Host.

"Ding~ The Host has understood the current information, triggering a mission: Seize the Opportunity."

Mission: Seize the Opportunity

Success: Reward 3000 points

Failure: Deduct 4000 points

Description: The direct descendants of the Duanmu Family, Wu Family, and Zhong Family, three major families, are being held by the Evil Cult organization. Please replace the protagonist Su Wei, rescue those people, and seize the protagonist's opportunity.

"There's even a System mission now."

Gu Yan didn't reject this mission.

He knew that if he rescued those people, the person who should be treated as an honored guest would be him.

How could he let go of this opportunity!

Without thinking further, Gu Yan quickened his pace slightly.

These areas on the edge of the Main City would not have buildings.

Following the precise direction, Gu Yan quickly discovered the situation.

It wasn't the group of Evil Cult members, but... a Sky Overlord that was laying eggs in the edge area of the Main City—a Golden Mane Griffin (A+)!

Seeing the two eggs laid by the other party, Gu Yan turned to look at the direction of the Evil Cult organization.

"System, tell me, can the Heaven-Stealing Hand produced by you stealthily steal two eggs without anyone noticing?"

...

...

This was a small camp surrounded by abandoned vehicles.

More than a dozen Beast Masters wrapped in thick clothes huddled around a fire for warmth.

The cold, damp air from the sea was particularly heavy at night.

Next to them, four men and woman, tightly bound, were none other than the direct descendants of three of the five major families in Sky Vault Main City.

Further out were several contracted beasts with night watch capabilities.

"What exactly is your purpose?! Do you know the consequences of angering my Zhong Family?!"

Among the four, the young man with long, shoulder-length hair and a full beard, who looked the most flamboyant, was filled with anger.

Facing the questioning from the Zhong Family's eldest Master.

The man leading this operation, the strongest one, did not respond.

In fact, this man was also waiting for further instructions from above.

What he didn't know was.

Heavenly Machine above was waiting for Su Wei to be released from prison at this time.

And Su Wei was currently...

"How much money do you want, just name a figure." Among the four bound people, the fattest, the eldest Master of the Wu Family, had a greasy face full of tears: "Give me a phone, I'll call home and get it for you!"

"Worthless." Duanmu Shuangkui, enduring the strangeness in her body, fiercely cursed at the Fatty next to her.

"You're a woman, at most you'll be played with, of course you're not afraid." The Fatty said fearfully, "I'm a A Man, they will really kill!"

"Bastard!" Biting her silver teeth, Duanmu Shuangkui's almond-shaped eyes almost spat fire.

If the situation wasn't special right now, she would definitely send this complete scoundrel to the City Guard Bureau!

None of the four Masters of the Main City were good people!

"Sister, you say, if we had agreed to let Gu Yan be our bodyguard before, would the situation not be like this now?"

Under the effect of the medicine, a blush appeared on Duanmu Mingyue's neck.

Her beautiful eyes seemed to contain a pool of water.

Listening to her younger sister's words, Duanmu Shuangkui was somewhat silent.

Perhaps, she really made a wrong decision.

Just as she had this thought, the next moment.

"Bang~"

A tightly bound young man was thrown in front of the few people by an Evil Cult follower.

When they saw the young man, Duanmu Mingyue and the other four were all stunned.

"Gu Ge, you're here too." The long-haired, bearded young man's mouth twitched.

"Gu Ge, help!" The Fatty Master of the Wu Family, upon seeing Gu Yan, immediately cried out for help.

In his impression, Gu Yan was impeccable in terms of both strength and intelligence, which was why he was the leader of their four Masters.

The other three all looked at the Fatty from the Wu Family with an expression like looking at an idiot.

Gu Yan was now tied up just like everyone else.

He couldn't even take care of himself, how could he save anyone?

However.

It was in the eyes of everyone with such expressions that Gu Yan, who was tied up, made a shushing gesture to the few people.

He glanced at the guards.

Taking advantage of the blind spot in their vision, Gu Yan instantly untied his ropes, and at the same time took out four items from his body and directly stuffed them into the mouths of the four people.

"The egg white of the Golden Mane Griffin egg can eliminate the power of confinement on your bodies, allowing you to summon your contracted beasts!"

"What?"

The four hadn't reacted yet, but the return of strength to their bodies immediately changed their expressions.

"Gu Ge, you're really my brother!"

The Fatty shouted excitedly in a low voice.

The man with long hair and the two young ladies of the Duanmu Family also had their eyes light up.

The Golden Mane Griffin egg, this was a great tonic; it almost instantly broke through the confinement force in their bodies.

They hadn't expected that Gu Yan wasn't captured at all, but came to rescue them by following the trail of being captured!

This made the few people deeply moved.

The only thing they were a little confused about was, where did this egg come from?

"Listen to my command, run when the time is right."

Things had reached this point, and Gu Yan's performance was extremely serious.

From the current perspective.

It seemed like he only did two things.

Getting captured and removing the confinement from the few people's bodies.

In reality.

Before this, Gu Yan had already made arrangements.

Run when the time is right.

When would be the right time?

Around them, the members of the Evil Cult organization were guarding, and the weakest among them was a Beast Master.

The only chance came from outside!

"Screech!"

A roar of fury instantly echoed throughout the entire 71st District.

Large areas of thick fog were swept away, and people seemed to see a ball of golden fire rising!

All the Evil Cult members cast their gaze over.

"It's a mature Golden Mane Griffin, a guy that even a Beast Taming Grandmaster has trouble dealing with."

Among the Evil Cult members, the leading man's expression was slightly solemn.

Then he said, "It seems to be furious. Fortunately, it's some distance away from here."

As soon as these words left the man's mouth.

The giant beast in the distance, like a blazing sun, seemed to have determined a target and charged straight towards their current location with the roar of a sonic boom!

"Crack!" At the same time.

A shattered egg, which Gu Yan somehow produced from somewhere, was directly thrown beside the Evil Cult followers.

Yellow and white, mixed with a Fishy smell (fishy/bloody smell), splashed all over these people!

"Now, run!"

Looking at the rapidly approaching Golden Mane Griffin, Gu Yan suddenly shouted loudly at the four people behind him.

"How could these people recover?" The dozen or so followers were confused, and at the same time, instantly gathered their strength.

They wanted to stop these few people from escaping!

However.

In just two breaths, from the high altitude behind them, a roar so clear it almost tore people's eardrums made these followers shudder in horror!

Only now did they realize that the egg Gu Yan had just thrown out was a Golden Mane Griffin egg!
