Beast Taming, my intelligence updates daily.

Chapter 482 Hastur, the Lord in Yellow

"However, it is not a good thing to allow the Deep Ones to build the city of R'lyeh in the deep sea."

"If only we could bring the Deep Ones out of the deep sea."

"Please help us test what the Deep Divers are interested in these next few days."

Wuzhiqi could only sense the location of the divine kingdom. If the Deep Ones were to establish the divine kingdom, then Cthulhu would have already descended upon this world.

If Cthulhu were to take over Earth and make it his divine kingdom, even gods and demons would likely choose to abandon Earth.

Humans and beasts corrupted by Cthulhu will become eternal followers of Cthulhu.

"Furthermore, we are not good at operating in the deep sea, so we need to find a higher-ups to arrange for a beast tamer who is good at walking in the sea."

Wuzhiqi scratched his buttocks.

"Oh, how could you forget me?"

"I am the Great Sage of the Huai River, and I govern countless grass-root gods."

"I can help you."

"It's just breathing underwater, I can easily do that for you."

Seeing Wuzhiqi's sincere expression, Ye Bai didn't know what to say.

"You're worried I'll do something underhanded, aren't you? After all, you're enslaved by your Sunflower Fairy."

"I would feel very uncomfortable if the entire planet were occupied by a group of twisted and deformed creatures."

"So I support you in driving these things out."

"Don't worry, I, Old Ape, am a man of my word. I will never go back on my promises."

Although Wuzhiqi said that, Ye Bai still secretly reported the matter to Marshal Huanglong.

Marshal Huanglong thought for a while and realized that he did not have enough manpower, and there were not many beast tamers who were good at operating in the deep sea.

It would be better to ask Wuzhiqi for help.

However, to prevent Wuzhiqi from causing trouble, Marshal Huanglong personally intervened and intimidated the Water Ape Great Sage Wuzhiqi.

"However, Ye Bai, our Yan Kingdom is not good at operating in the deep sea, but the Sakura Kingdom is different."

"Japan is located by the sea, and many of their pets are aquatic."

"This time, it's not only 700 nautical miles from Pengcheng, but also not far from Japan."

"I'm afraid these deep-sea divers will get there first and corrupt the people of the Sakura Kingdom."

"If this situation really happens, report it to me immediately."

"This time, we will lend you the Gonggong nuclear-powered submarine to carry out a mission in the deep sea."

"The submarine crew will accompany you to the deep sea."

"Yunluo, Lanfa, and Zhang Tianan will accompany you on the mission."

Yan Kingdom is currently facing a severe shortage of manpower; even Yun Luo has been dispatched on a mission.

"Find out as soon as possible what attracts the Deepsea Dwellers, and at the same time, locate the place where they have built their underwater city and destroy it!"

"This mission is extremely difficult, so the Gonggong submarine will carry a Zhurong-class missile."

"Once you've discovered the Deep Ones' lair, don't hesitate to activate the Zhu Rong-class nuclear missile."

Marshal Huanglong granted the highest level of authority.

"I understand, Marshal Huanglong. We will figure out how to attract the Deep Ones within three days."

"We will depart in three days to carry out a mission in the deep sea."

After Marshal Huanglong left, Ye Bai convened a group meeting.

"Everyone has heard Marshal Huanglong's request clearly, right?"

"We only have three days to figure out how to lure the deep-diving people."

Wuzhiqi was allowed by Ye Bai to sit in on the proceedings.

"Wuzhiqi, do you have any ideas?"

"As the Great Sage of the Water Ape, you must have some secret techniques."

All eyes turned to Wuzhiqi.

This was the first time Wuzhiqi had felt so respected.

But he was truly at a loss.

After all, it was merely the spirit of the Hunyuan Iron Cudgel, not the Water Ape Great Sage who could summon wind and rain.

“I do have a solution. I remember there’s a talent in the world called the Water Speaker.”

"This talent allows one to communicate with aquatic beasts from birth."

"The ocean has the most of all things: aquatic creatures."

“We can start by questioning the aquatic creatures in the vicinity where the Deep Ones escaped.”

"There should be quite a few witnesses who know the location of the Deep Ones."

"But if we follow the clues, can't we wipe out the Deep Ones all at once?"

That's a good idea, but where can one find a pet trainer with such talent in such a short time?

"Ye Bai, I don't think we should focus on the Water Speaker talent."

"Why don't we broaden the selection scope and apply it to the Beast Speaker talent or the Mind Communication talent?"

"Since Marshal Huanglong attaches so much importance to this matter, we can apply to Marshal Huanglong to open the database and check who has this or a similar talent."

"That way we won't waste any more time. Let's head straight to that area and find the Deep Ones."

"Incidentally, we'll use the 'Ghost' to test the Deep Divers in the sea."

Yunluo's thinking was quite clear. After Ye Bai reported to Marshal Huanglong, he received an encrypted account.

Through special channels, one can access a small website.

Enter the password inside to view the registered talents.

Ye Bai and the others checked several times, but these types of talents were not among the logged-in talents at all.

"How about this, let's take a two-pronged approach."

"Yunluo, go and test what the Deep Ones are interested in."

"I went to look for similar talents, and we split up and met up here three days later."

Ye Bai relied on his own intelligence system.

He'll see if he can trigger keywords to find the location of the Deep One.

The dangers posed by deep-diving beings have long surpassed those of angels and demons.

If the Deep Ones are allowed to establish an underwater kingdom, the Earth will never have peace when Cthulhu descends.

Humans and monsters controlled by Cthulhu will launch a counterattack on the human world, turning the entire Earth into Cthulhu's divine realm.

This is a fact that no one in the world wants to see.

[1. Hastur, the Lord in Yellow, will descend an avatar into the clock tower of Imperial University on the second day. He is an enemy of Cthulhu. Hastur loves food, is skilled in curse tracking, and is considered the only Great Old One among Cthulhu with a conscious mind.]

[2. Hastur, the Lord in Yellow, emits terrifying mental energy. Contact with his mental energy will transform someone into an octopus-man if their sanity level fails to meet the threshold.]

[3. The way to avoid turning into an octopus-man is to wear a Spirit Power Orb and keep your spiritual power at its peak at all times.]

4. Hastur is a liar; nine out of ten things he says are false, and only one is true. However, if you pique his interest, he might tell you the truth.

5. Hastur's true form is imprisoned in a jail by the Mother of Chaos. If you can rescue it, you will gain Hastur's friendship, and it will transform you into an octopus-man.

Hastur, the Yellow King?
One of the twelve Great Old Ones?

Their strength is also top-notch.

How did it end up on Earth?
Is Earth now riddled with holes, allowing any god to travel to it?

Ye Bai couldn't quite understand it, but if he couldn't understand it, he shouldn't think about it too much.

Once everything was seen by Hastur, the Lord in Yellow, some things naturally became clear.

Ye Bai hurriedly went to the logistics department of Imperial University and made a phone call to his grandmaster Su Qingxian, asking her to issue an order to carry out a mission near the clock tower tomorrow: evacuate all students.

The next day, at the clock tower.

This is a ten-story tower with a giant clock hanging at the top, which chimes precisely on holidays. The clock tower is not open to the public at other times, but some pet trainers use it for training.

Ye Bai arrived at the clock tower just in time, where a large number of police lines had already been set up.

All the teachers and students kept their distance.

At the top of the clock tower, a magic circle representing wind suddenly appeared on the ground.

A wriggling figure with only one head emerged from the magic circle.

"Yoshi, we finally escaped from that old woman."

"This old woman has imprisoned me for so many years."

The yellow sphere muttered a complaint as long, thin tentacles extended from beneath it.

There are eight more yellow spheres like this.

It looked around and seemed quite satisfied with its surroundings.

"The human world, the taste of freedom, from now on I am the only true god in this world."

Just then, a burst of intense light suddenly appeared around them.

It's so bright, it's really so bright.

The yellow sphere raised its hand and shielded its eyes.

All I heard were two clicking sounds of cameras taking pictures.

Hastur immediately sensed something was wrong.

"Who is it? Who is it? Show yourself!"

Hastur shouted, and the clock tower was filled with its sound.

"Great Lord Hastur, the Yellow King, it is an honor to meet you here."

Ye Bai walked over from the side and spoke respectfully to Hastur.

"You smell like that old salted fish. Did you get into a fight with him?"

Hastur said slowly and deliberately.

“I’m not like those filthy people; I’ve always been a lone wolf.”

"Would you like to become my follower?"

Hastur pointed at Ye Bai and said.

"No, I wanted to discuss a collaboration with Lord Hastur this time."

"Cthulhu has invaded Earth. I want to know the current location of the Deep Ones."

"With your wind attribute, and being on par with Cthulhu, you should be fine."

Hastur himself was an avatar, and was suppressed by the Blue Star plane, so his strength was only around the fourth or fifth rank.

It can only gain faith by distorting living beings.

However, Ye Bai was wearing a high-level mental energy bead, so Hastur's mental energy had no effect on him.

"Although I hate Cthulhu, I hate humans even more."

Why should I help you?

"I won't get any benefit from it, so I won't do it."

Hastur said with a cold laugh.

"Lord Hastur, your meal is ready."

"Please come with me."

Ye Bai did not respond directly to Hastur, but instead gestured for Hastur to proceed.

He led Hastur toward the restaurant.

To avoid panic, Ye Bai chose to book the entire venue.

Hastur's clone, who had been starving for thousands of years, looked at all kinds of delicious food and said he wanted to eat them all.

"Eat up, Lord Hastur. We can discuss cooperation better if we're full, can't we?"

"Every dish here is cooked by a renowned chef."
.
Hastur was in a great mood as it looked at the dazzling array of food. It pounced and landed on the plate.

They started munching away, crunching away, finding everything delicious.

After a hearty meal, Hastur was flossing his teeth.

At this moment, Ye Bai's favorability rating in Hastur's heart soared.

"Tell me what you want, and I can grant your wish."

Hastur hesitated for a long time before making a promise to Ye Bai.

"But don't go too far with this wish. I can't conjure money out of thin air."

Ye Bai is still quite wealthy; what he needs now is information about the Deep Ones.

"I want to know how I can find the location of the Deep Ones."

"I don't want to wait until the Deep Ones have built the Abyss Gate before I realize that by then it will be too late."

Hastur closed his eyes and thought for a moment.

"If this were my prime, this would be no problem at all. I could find the Deep One's location with just a tracking spell."

"But I am only an avatar now, and my divine power is simply not enough to cast a divine spell."

Hastur shook his head.

"Then can you sense the location of the Deep Ones?"

Ye Bai said, settling for second best.

"It's possible, but it can't exceed one kilometer."

"I can sign a contract with you, as long as you don't lay a hand on me and treat me to good food and wine, I can help you."

Hastur made a request.

Ye Bai refused instead.

"No need for a contract, I trust you."

"You are the only Great Old One with a clear mind."

“You are different from other demons, I believe you would not lie to me.”

Ye Bai looked at Hastur with a sincere expression, but what he really meant was to make Hastur lower his guard.

"can."

"Actually, I also really hate those rotten fish and shrimp from the Deep Divers. The stench they emanate makes me want to stay away."

“Cthulhu has always been at odds with me. He was the one who put me in prison.”

Hastur remarked.

"And you can't cast divine spells on me, you can't let my mental strength be affected."

Hastur nodded: "Don't worry, this is just one of my clones."

"As long as I don't use divine magic, you'll be fine."

Hastur suddenly wrapped itself around Ye Bai's arm.

Ye Bai felt as if he had been bitten by something.

Then a pattern appeared on Ye Bai's arm.

This is a yellow, cartoonish octopus design.

"Haha, I used you to sign an equal contract."

"Don't worry, I can lend you my power so you can cast divine spells."

"Don't tell anyone about my existence, or you'll get into big trouble. After all, I escaped from the Black Goat's prison."

"Although I'm usually a liar, I'm not lying to you about this."

"I need your aura to escape the rejection of this plane, otherwise I will be imprisoned in a prison with no peace again."
