Beastmaster: I'm really just a forest ranger

Chapter 324 If the Twin Flower Concubines Evolve into Poisonous Flower Queen

As Chen Yuan traversed the rainforest where sunlight could hardly penetrate, his steps did not falter for a moment.

Manland has a typical tropical climate, with tall trees standing upright and broad leaves that block out the sun, making the climate unbearably hot.

After the spiritual energy revival, the environment on Manlan Island became even harsher than before, making it a forbidden area for ordinary beast tamers.

The air was filled with a cloyingly sweet, putrid stench, mixed with the smell of countless toxic fungal spores multiplying wildly.

"Ow~"

Fortunately, Coca-Cola is like a portable hair dryer. With a quick glance and a slight opening of its mouth, it suddenly blew out a refreshing breeze, sweeping away the unpleasant smell that permeated the rainforest.

However, the harsh living environment is a secondary crisis. What ordinary beast tamers fear even more are the various poisonous pets hidden in the green shadows.

Less than five minutes after stepping into this rainforest where even sunlight was distorted and blocked, a strange change occurred.

Buzz buzz—!
The chilling sound of flapping wings surged in from all directions without warning, and dozens of tiny figures burst out from the broad leaves at the same moment—these were the highly venomous winged bees that Chen Yuan had seen before.

This pet beast is described as "highly poisonous," which speaks volumes about its toxicity. The servant bees that Chen Yuan had dealt with more than once were nowhere near as potent as it.

Although servant bees are much larger than venomous winged bees, the latter are several times more venomous.

If Coca-Cola were to get stung, it might just recreate the famous scene of the bee and the dog.

Upon closer inspection, the slender bee shadows covered in a mottled metallic luster resembled poisoned daggers, shooting out silently yet with incredible speed. Their target was crystal clear—Chen Yuan, who had ventured alone into this rainforest.

There were no shouts, no threats.

These highly venomous winged bees, like the most insidious shadow assassins, sent dozens of colorful, poisonous shadows piercing through layers of leaves, rushing towards Chen Yuan with lightning speed.

"Ow!"

Cola seemed to recall painful memories, and its majestic body involuntarily trembled. But it quickly realized that it had lost its composure, and angrily squeaked twice, baring its sharp teeth at the swarm of venomous winged bees.

Cola is very angry!
Very serious consequences!
But then Cola suddenly remembered something, abruptly turned her head to look at the twin concubines who resembled elegant little princesses, and immediately became dejected.

I almost forgot, this is the little guy's performance time.

At the same moment, Chen Yuan did not pause in the slightest, and he did not even look directly at the deadly streaks of light that were coming his way.

"Go."

The moment the command was given in the mind, the small figure on the shoulder suddenly burst forth with a breathtaking light.

The Twin Flower Concubine still wore a sweet smile with an alluring quality. It nodded slightly to the menacing venomous winged bee, then gently waved its two palms, which emitted a strange light.

The next moment, countless thin, cicada-wing-like, eerily colored crimson petals appeared out of thin air.

Each crimson petal possessed a fragile, fleeting, and alluring beauty, as if casually scattered by an invisible hand, drifting away from the little one's head.

Each crimson petal was incredibly light, driven by a subtle force to meet the dozens of deadly streaks of poison that shot towards it!
The rapidly flying, highly venomous winged bees instantly came into contact with these seemingly harmless crimson petals.

Bang bang bang!
A series of small, muffled sounds, like plump bubbles bursting in one's ear, suddenly rang out.

Each seemingly vibrant crimson petal transformed into a highly lethal miniature bomb, accompanied by a series of explosions, as plumes of black smoke enveloped the approaching venomous winged bees.

The venomous winged bees' entire bodies, their hard, metallic carapaces, were as fragile as paper before the Crimson Bomb, their shrill, distorted cries echoing one after another.

In just a moment, the vast majority of the highly venomous winged bees were engulfed in black smoke from the crimson bomb, their thin wings stopped flapping, and they fell to the ground one after another.

The original attack formation collapsed instantly, leaving only a few lucky ones who had managed to dodge the crimson bombs to flap their wings and retreat in terror.

As Chen Yuan listened contentedly to the system notifications that he had obtained the source point, he nodded in satisfaction.

As the only attack skill of the Twin Flower Concubines, the Crimson Bomb has become increasingly proficient, enough to inflict considerable damage on enemies.

However, compared to Spark and Cola, the Twin Flower Concubines are significantly weaker in overall combat power.

Its current skills are indeed annoying and troublesome enough, but when it faces a pet that is stronger than itself and as agile as a cola, it has fewer ways to deal with it and no high-powered moves that can deliver a decisive blow.

"I hope that after evolving, I can master more offensive skills," Chen Yuan secretly hoped.

His initial vision for the Twin Flower Concubines was that they would be purely healing pets, requiring no pet battles.

But as the little guy's poison talent gradually emerged, it engaged in more and more pet battles, and its win rate became higher and higher. It could easily toy with its opponents with just one attack skill.

But this is far from enough.

Poison skills are not invincible, and the Twin Flower Concubines cannot rely on their current skills to win forever.

It requires greater strength and more skills.

In addition, the twin concubines have one undeniable shortcoming—they are slow-moving.

In the wild, the Twin Flower Concubine can certainly improve its agility with the help of the breeze created by cola, but in a formal one-on-one battle, the little guy's short legs alone are not enough to move freely.

It has no survival skills, and once the opponent closes the distance, the situation will be extremely dire.

"I wish you could fly too."

After saying this, Chen Yuan's eyes lit up, and he murmured, "Maybe it really works?"

If cola can fly, it makes perfect sense that the incredible life form born from twin flowers can also fly, right?

But can the evolved Twin Flower Concubine really master the ability to fly?
Chen Yuan lowered his eyes, staring intently at the smiling twin concubines, and the image of the little flower fairy from the cartoon he watched as a child involuntarily surfaced in his mind.

Hmm, it seems quite reasonable for twin flower concubines to grow a pair of wings?
A flurry of thoughts flashed through Chen Yuan's mind. He looked at the group of unconscious, venomous winged bees lying on the ground, and a bold idea came to him. So he said, "Let's heal their wounds first."

"Groan."

The little guy nodded obediently, tore off two petals, and handed them to Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan soaked the flower petals in the mineral water bottle he carried with him. The originally clear and transparent water changed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and a vibrant emerald green light blended with the water.

Then, Chen Yuan carefully sprinkled water infused with flower petals onto the group of unconscious, highly venomous winged bees, and emerald green particles of light, symbolizing life, drifted from their wounds.

In no time, the broken wings of the venomous winged bees began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye. The charred wounds were covered with a layer of soft pink scabs, and even their violently convulsing and paralyzed bodies quickly stabilized, and the pain was gently soothed.

This is precisely the method of using the "Aromatherapy Healing Petal" developed by Chen Yuanxin, which is similar in principle to Runrun Duck's "Clear Ripples".

While the healing effect of the aromatherapy petals is better, one petal can only be used for one or a few pets, which is too inefficient. However, if multiple petals are soaked in water, the ordinary water will become healing water, which can heal multiple pets at the same time.

Of course, this would reduce the effectiveness of the treatment, but the wounds of these venomous winged bees were not serious, and the healing water alone would suffice.

Buzz buzz.
As the highly venomous winged bees that had been bathed in the healing water gradually awoke, they flapped their wings and flew together, their eyes filled with complex emotions as they gazed at the smiling twin flower concubines.

There was both fear and gratitude.

"Yingying~"

Meeting a multitude of complex gazes, the twin flower concubines in their daytime form still wore gentle and all-encompassing smiles, their delicate voices like a warm spring breeze caressing their bodies.

Good boy, poisonous bee! Your wounds have been healed.

At that moment, a warm, comforting emotion, mixed with an irresistible sense of gratitude and dependence, surged through the minds of all the highly venomous winged bees like a tidal wave.

They were as if captured by the sweetest dream, even the vibration of their wings became slow and weak, and a beautiful and gentle figure was reflected in their compound eyes—no longer a terrible opponent that brought pain and wailing, but a radiant angel who brought new life and peace, whose whole body seemed to radiate a faint light.

After being defeated and healed, the little guy's succubus attributes were amplified infinitely. The faint buzzing sound emitted by the venomous winged bees was no longer a crazy threat, but a soft whisper that was almost flattering and affectionate. The frequency of its wing flapping also became extremely soothing, as if it was dancing around the little princess.

Chen Yuan's gaze calmly swept over the venomous winged bees with dazed eyes that kept flying around the Twin Flower Concubine, and his lips moved: "Do you know about the Eternal Silent Sand Flower?"

The calm voice was like a pebble dropped into a calm lake; the venomous winged bees rolled their compound eyes in bewilderment, showing no reaction to the name.

Chen Yuan stopped talking, took out his phone and opened the picture of the Eternal Silent Flower that he had specially saved—this level four spiritual plant looks a lot like the Manjusaka, but the petals are bone white, which looks quite strange.

However, the highly venomous winged bees showed no reaction to the spiritual plants in the painting, clearly indicating that they had never seen the Eternal Silent Sandflower.

Chen Yuan felt disappointed, but not surprised.

The Eternal Silent Flower is an extremely rare level four spiritual plant, which is very beneficial to poison-type pets. It either grows in hidden places that are difficult for wild pets to find, or it has been taken over by powerful pets.

These highly venomous winged bees are indeed quite intimidating to ordinary beast tamers, but they are no match for powerful pets, so it is reasonable that they have never seen the Eternal Silent Sand Flower.

With a thought flashing through his mind, Chen Yuan addressed the venomous winged bees: "Help me find it. There will be a reward for finding it."

The venomous winged bees remained unmoved until the Twin Flower Concubine waved her hand, at which point they became suddenly excited, like believers who had received a divine decree.

Without the slightest hesitation, they all sprang into the air, instantly transforming into blurry streaks of poisonous green light, heading in all directions of the dense forest—some deep, some soaring high, some burrowing into the ground, and some flying towards the distant canopy layer—before scattering in all directions and disappearing into the thick, impenetrable green haze.

Chen Yuan chuckled, "What a bunch of lustful fools."

He then looked down at the twin flower concubines, stroked his chin, and muttered, "At this rate, after you evolve, you won't be able to summon thousands of pets with a wave of your hand, and then all the pets will revere you as their queen."

"Yes, the Queen of Flowers."

Chen Yuan stared at the twin concubines with a bright smile, then suddenly his eyes lit up and he murmured, "If you become queen, remember to have your subordinates help with the farm work."

"Yingying~"

The twin concubines blinked their bright eyes, their delicate faces breaking into a smile that could melt anyone's heart, and they opened their arms to Chen Yuan.

Want a hug.

Chen Yuan squatted down and extended his right index finger toward the little guy.

"Yan!"

The twin concubines smiled and hugged Chen Yuan's index finger tightly, then were pulled down to land on his shoulder.

Then the little guy gently tiptoed and pressed his petite body against Chen Yuan's right cheek. His body was covered with the tenderness and fragrance of flowers, smooth and sweet.

It was showing Chen Yuan through its actions that even if she became queen, she would always love "Mom" the most. "Let's go, keep moving forward."

After the brief incident with the highly venomous winged bees, Chen Yuan led the little creatures deeper into the dense forest in search of the Eternal Silent Sandflower.

As they ventured deeper, more and more poisonous pets came into view, but with the little guy protecting him, Chen Yuan remained calm and composed.

Whenever a poison-type pet appears, the Twin Flower Concubine will use various means to get it to exchange some poison-type insights with her. Only when it nods thoughtfully can the pet hurriedly flee.

Every move she made exuded the air of a queen of flowers.

More accurately, she is the Poison Queen who always wears a gentle smile.

The deeper you go into the rainforest, the more lush and tall the trees become, and the scarcer the sunlight becomes.

Suddenly, the air became unusually humid and sticky, and each breath felt like swallowing mud mixed with moss and putrid liquid, with a slightly eroding burning sensation in my lungs.

Looking ahead, a faint, light green mist appeared in the rainforest, permeating every corner deep within it.

Chen Yuan stopped in his tracks and slowly said, "This must be the poisonous miasma."

After the spiritual energy revival, the poisonous miasma also poses some harm to beast tamers. If they walk in places full of poisonous miasma for a long time, they may faint or even die.

It's like an invisible, dense green wall, blocking the entry of every outsider.

Finding the Eternal Silent Sand Flower is a major challenge, as the island is filled with poisonous pets, and the pervasive poisonous miasma is the second.

"Ow~"

Cola didn't find the so-called poisonous miasma scary at all. It strode forward proudly, suddenly raised its head and barked, the two black stripes of fur around its body fluttering wildly, and a gust of wind suddenly howled out.

A strong wind swept through, causing the vegetation to sway and dispersing most of the dense green miasma, immediately revealing a passage leading forward.

"Ow!"

Upon seeing this, Cola tilted his head back and smiled smugly.

There's nothing in this world that Coca-Cola can't solve!
Just as Chen Yuan was about to praise Cola, a sudden change occurred. The green mist that permeated the surroundings seemed to be a viscous living thing with consciousness, silently gathering, thickening, and surging once again, blocking the way ahead.

Chen Yuan: "."

Cola's eyes widened in surprise, and it roared angrily, "Awooo!"

How can it be!

Unconvinced, Coke tried again, but the same scene repeated itself: the poisonous miasma was first dispersed by the strong wind, and then quickly returned to normal.

Clearly, this is only a temporary solution and not a cure.

Cola, badly injured, lay silently on the ground, head bowed, sighing, "Ouch!"

Chen Yuan chuckled, then comforted Kele, "It's normal that you can't solve the poisonous miasma because your expertise doesn't match your job."

Considering the dangers of the poisonous miasma, Chen Yuan made several preparations before coming.

One is a gas mask specially made by the Beast Tamer Association, which is said to be able to block most poisonous gases when worn.

Secondly, there are various kinds of antidotes.

Recently, incidents of poison-type pets injuring people have been frequent. In addition, poison-type pets have a natural advantage in pet battles, so the market for antidotes is growing.

Thirdly, the twin flower concubines themselves possess a certain ability to expel poison.

With triple protection, Chen Yuan felt that venturing deep into the poisonous miasma was not a difficult task.

"Why don't you give it a try first?" Chen Yuan turned his head to look at the twin concubines.

During their trip to Yunnan Province, the twin flower concubines demonstrated the magical ability to easily dispel sweet fragrances; perhaps they can use the same ability to dispel poisonous miasma.

"Yinyin".

The little guy nodded obediently and gently waved his hand at the light green mist that permeated the area in front of him.

Cola quietly looked up to observe the subtle changes in the poisonous miasma.

After a while, the light green mist remained unchanged. Cola buried her head even deeper and sighed listlessly, "Ouch!"

Even the little guy can't do that?

Suddenly, as if realizing something, Cola looked up sharply, her bright blue eyes blinking rapidly.

Wait, if even the little guy can't do it, isn't it normal that I can't?

Cola's mood was like a rollercoaster, going up and down, but just then, the fog in front of her suddenly changed.

The wall of poisonous miasma ahead, thick as glue and solid as a substance, was gently pushed down as if by a pair of invisible hands. The light green mist gradually thinned until it disappeared completely.

At that moment, the surrounding air instantly became fresh, and the sunlight struggled to cast a few weak but precious beams of light from the area where the poisonous miasma had dissipated, illuminating the damp ground below that no longer contained deadly bacteria.

Looking ahead, there is an even deeper, dark forest with eerie, dappled light and shadow, like the throat of a giant beast leading to the heart of the island!
"well done."

Chen Yuan gently tapped the twin concubines' heads, put the gas mask he had taken out back into his backpack, and smiled.

Even before awakening its poison attribute, it already possesses this incredible ability. Once the little guy begins true dual cultivation of wood and poison, all opponents will face the terrifying dominance of the Poison Flower.

"Yinyin".

The little guy smiled sweetly and continued to wave his hands, as if casting a spell to continuously dispel the surrounding poisonous mist, trying his best to prevent Chen Yuan from falling into the dangerous situation of being surrounded by poisonous miasma.

Chen Yuan looked up and stepped forward, steadily entering the safe passage opened up by the little guy.

The air was still filled with a rich, exotic floral fragrance and a musty smell, but it was no longer as suffocating as before.

Ancient trees covered with fluorescent moss rose from the ground, with countless vines dripping with viscous liquid hanging down.

Chen Yuan's footsteps were light and silent, making a faint crunching sound as he stepped on the thick layer of fallen leaves.

Just then, behind the dense, twisted vines in front, came the sounds of fierce fighting and the hissing of poison corroding the air, along with a clear and calm command.

Chen Yuan looked surprised: "Are there other people on this island?"

Upon closer reflection, it makes sense. While ordinary beast tamers keep their distance from Manlan Island, some poison-specialized beast tamers do come here to train.

Could the person in front of us be a poison-specialized beast tamer?

With a wary expression, Chen Yuan slowed his pace and, with curiosity, quietly parted a huge fern leaf covered with dark green spots, revealing a wide-open view.

In a small, relatively open clearing in the woods, a young woman was intently directing the battle.

Even in the sweltering tropical rainforest, she was still wrapped in heavy outdoor clothing.

The zipper of the dark black tactical jacket was zipped up to the collar, the scratch-resistant and durable waterproof pants were tucked into high-top outdoor boots, a protective mask and goggles covered the face, and long hair was neatly tied back.

Although it looks hot, it can effectively prevent harm in the tropical rainforest where toxic fog is rampant.

A giant rock centipede, the same kind Chen Yuan had seen on the beach, stood prominently in front of her.

This giant rock centipede was exceptionally large, with a body covered in a dark green, moss-like shell as thick as a water bucket.

The centipede-shaped head was held high, and its ferocious mouthparts dripped purplish-black venom, corroding the ground and creating small pits.

Countless feet crawled like steel nails, creating a heart-stopping rustling sound.

But Chen Yuan's gaze skipped over the seemingly terrifying giant rock centipede and landed on the pet beast beside the woman.

This is a uniquely shaped, half-human-sized flower-like pet.

The pet's body is a deep, dark purple, and its crown is composed of several large petals that are deep red to almost black with wavy, sharp spikes on the edges. When closed, it resembles a gorgeous yet eerie gothic hood.

At first glance, it looks like an elegant mage wearing a hood, with a slender figure, but the vine arms hanging down on both sides of the body reveal that it is a pet beast.

Bloodthorn Rose.

Chen Yuan's eyes flickered as he murmured the name of the pet beast, then turned to look at the twin concubines who were staring intently at the Bloodthorn Rose: "Look, your kind."

Bloodthorn Rose, a poisonous creature, and Twin Flower Concubine are both flower-type pets, and their body structures are extremely similar.

However, compared to the docile twin concubines who are like little princesses, the Bloodthorn Rose has a more mysterious and gloomy overall tone, like an evil sorcerer who has mistakenly entered the kingdom of flowers with a mysterious mission.

Lan Yingdan stared calmly at the giant rock centipede blocking her path, a thought forming in her mind: "Bloodthorn Rose, Scarlet Thorn Needle."

hum!
The Bloodthorn Rose suddenly raised its head, its huge petals swaying gently as it forcefully swung its vine arms, which were wrapped around dark green thorns.

The next moment, countless tiny, metallic, scarlet thorns shot out towards the giant rock centipede!

Chi Chi Chi!
The thorns, gleaming with a cold light, easily pierced the moss-like carapace of the giant rock centipede. The giant rock centipede immediately hissed and writhed in pain, its body swaying as it collapsed to the ground.

"Third-tier strength."

Chen Yuan instantly saw through the Bloodthorn Rose's true strength.

Come to think of it, Manlan Island is fraught with danger, and without the protection of a powerful pet, it would be impossible to move an inch.

Seeing the giant rock centipede fall unconscious to the ground, Lan Yingdan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, her tense shoulders relaxed slightly, and then she smiled: "Well done."

Just then, a blood-red vine covered with dark red barbs and resembling a venomous python suddenly shot out from the shadowy corner behind Lan Yingdan without warning.

Lan Yingdan was crouching down, watching Bloodthorn Rose and taking out a healing spray from her backpack to treat its wounds, completely unaware of the sudden attack.

"later!"

A calm yet extremely penetrating male voice suddenly rang out!
