My beast can't be a demon.

Chapter 223: Beast Disaster in the Secret Island

"Animal disaster?" Zhou Lu's eyes suddenly lit up, "Then I must go."

The so-called beast disaster is actually a phenomenon in which the number of spiritual beasts in a certain population or several populations in the secret realm increases abnormally and begins to move on a large scale.

The locust plague is one of the most typical "animal plagues".

Every time a beast disaster occurs, there will always be a huge population of spiritual pets appearing.

If she is strong enough, this is actually a good thing for Hanabi.

Seeing Zhou Lu's excitement, Xiao Xi patted her forehead and said, "Oh, I forgot you're already at level three."

In her daily form, Hua Huo still has the appearance of a bad boy, which makes Xiao Xi always subconsciously regard Hua Huo as a second-level spiritual pet.

"Come to think of it, you're already at level three, haven't you ever considered taking a B-class exploration certificate?" Xiao Xi suddenly asked.

"I have this plan." Zhou Lu didn't forget about it, but he has been busy lately. "After this wave of fireworks is familiar with the power of the third level, I will go to verify it."

"That's great." Xiao Xi clapped her hands.

"I'm going to take the test, why are you so happy?"

"Hehe, there are a lot of strange phenomena in those B-level secret realms, and I have never been able to find the right people to investigate."

"..." Zhou Lu's mouth twitched slightly when he heard the news, "I'm not the only third-level beastmaster in the academy."

"But you are the only one I can trust." Xiao Xi looked at Zhou Lu deeply. "All the strange phenomena I have accumulated are related to immortals. If I assign them to other beast masters, I am really worried that they will be bewitched by those evil cultivators."

Zhou Lu looked at Xiao Xi in surprise.

"Don't look at me like that." Xiao Xi said, "You already have the ability to know these things now."

"Level three, it's indeed different." Zhou Lu complained with relief.

“But don’t think that just because you have the strength, it will be easy to solve these anomalies.” Xiao Xi flew half a circle around Zhou Lu and stopped in front of him. “Most of them are ancient sealed demon cultivators. Although time has worn away most of their strength, they are still demons that bewitch people…”

“Why should I listen to them?”

"what?"

"I just simply want their bodies." Zhou Lu told the truth.

"Why are your words... so weird..." Xiao Xi curled her lips.

But it seems that there is no problem.

In the eyes of Huo Huo, immortals are indeed the best fertilizer for flowers.

"So, tell me in detail about the beast disaster in the secret island." Zhou Lu asked immediately, "It's best not to charge."

Xiao Xi was straightforward: "You accepted the mission to solve the beast disaster, so the information is free."

Zhou Lu nodded.

So Xiao Xi told the story of what happened in the secret island.

"Actually, it's not quite accurate to call it a beast disaster." Xiao Xi said to Zhou Lu, "You should know that every secret realm has a safe zone."

"The essence of this animal disaster is that humans have established safe zones and occupied the habitats of other species."

It turned out that the main cause of this animal disaster was a group of bird spirits called Storm Petrels.

Storm petrels have the habit of migrating, and this migration is different from that of migratory birds. They often return to their original habitat after several years.

This group of petrels were away for so many decades that humans thought they occupied an ordinary island and had no idea that this was the habitat of the storm petrels.

"Even if this is the case, it won't lead to a beast disaster, right? Similar things have happened before."

"The past was the past, and the present is the present." Xiao Xi casually said a "famous saying", "In the past, when encountering similar things, humans would have a professional division of labor to appease the rioting spirit beasts, and then, based on the actual situation, either relocate the safe area or arrange for the spirit beasts to a new habitat."

"But now you humans don't have that much patience." Xiao Xi said, smiling disdainfully, "Although you claim to be environmentally friendly, you are becoming more and more ruthless to wild beasts."

"The security zone of the secret island involves the interests of several large ocean-going companies."

"In their eyes, these petrels are nothing and can be directly eliminated." Xiao Xi said, spreading her hands helplessly: "So, their first reaction when they found these petrels returning to their nests was to send a large number of beastmasters to eliminate them."

"Who would have thought that this group of petrels seemed to have some special status in that secret island realm, which directly caused all the bird spirit beasts in the secret realm to enter a violent state."

"Because of the brutal attacks by humans at the beginning, these spirit beasts no longer trust humans and want to use violence to drive humans out of their habitats, which leads to the current beast disaster."

"..." Zhou Lu was silent for a while, then asked, "So what is my mission? Kill all those petrels?"

Xiao Xi rolled her eyes at Zhou Lu and said, "If that swallow in the Rongjunyuan knew what you said, it would definitely peck your head off."

Zhou Lu suddenly understood.

With the current military power of mankind, it would be a very easy thing to exterminate a population.

Just like the little tits in the secret mountains and rivers, developing a special pathogen is enough to destroy a large population in an instant.

Big companies are ruthless and even more callous when it comes to matters that touch upon their own interests.

As for the mass killing of wild spiritual beasts?

This kind of thing is no big deal for the consortium that controls the media.

cover?

Too low-level!

The media they control could easily report this incident, and then slightly distort the cause and effect, which would be enough to portray these petrels as ferocious beasts that maliciously attack humans.

The reason why these big companies failed to do so was entirely because there was a true god-level storm petrel in the Invalides.

Birds, however, are very vengeful.

Ordinary birds that hold grudges will at most peck you a few times, and at most they will shit on your head.

And if the true God's bird holds a grudge, then your entire family can just wait.

If it wasn’t a killing mission, Zhou Lu would be relieved.

Speaking of which...

Storm Petrel seems to be very suitable for use as a mount.

They fly very fast, almost ranking among the top bird spirit beasts.

At the same time, their strength is also quite good, and those above level three even have the ability to change the local weather.

It is said that the fifth-level true god Storm Petrel can plunge the entire world into continuous torrential rain.

Zhou Lu is now at level three, it’s time to consider the third pet.

His original plan was to contract a mount pet.

With this in mind, Storm Petrel is indeed a good choice.

So let's take the opportunity to investigate this time.

As they were talking, Hua Huo walked out of Zhou Lu's room with sleepy eyes.

Maybe because she was curled up in the cup, Hanabi's leaf skirt was wrinkled and even mostly lifted up.

When Xiao Xi saw Hua Huo's appearance, her pupils suddenly trembled.

Then he looked at Zhou Lu in horror.

"I said...you..."

Just as Zhou Lu was about to speak, Xiao Xi flew back to her room.

boom!
The little door was shut with all the strength it could muster.

"What the hell! What on earth did you misunderstand?"
