Beastmaster: I'm really just a forest ranger

Chapter 389 Consultant Chen is no longer acting!

"They may be afraid of you, but I'm not."

The moment she finished speaking, two dazzling white summoning arrays suddenly lit up in front of her, and the intense energy fluctuations even distorted the surrounding air.

Within the array of light, two figures exuding a dangerous aura quickly solidified.

A massive scorpion landed with a thud on the left. Its entire body was covered with a thick, dark green carapace that shimmered with a metallic sheen. Its thick tail was raised high, and its pincers, which resembled giant axes, were covered with menacing serrations and made a teeth-grinding "snap" sound when they opened and closed.

His cold, compound eyes swept across the area, and a powerful, ferocious aura, a mixture of steely toughness and deadly poison, enveloped the entire scene as if it were a tangible entity.

On the right, a strangely shaped, deep purple flower, about half a person's height, quietly bloomed.

The deep red, almost black corolla is composed of several petals with wavy, sharp spines, resembling a magnificent yet sinister Gothic hood, making the whole thing look like an elegant mage wearing a hood.

However, the slender arms made of vines hanging down from both sides of its hood reveal that it is not human, adding to its inhuman and eerie feel.

Looking at the two pet beasts, Chen Yuan raised an eyebrow: "Steel-spine Scorpion and Bloodthorn Rose."

He had seen both of these pets on Manlan Island before; they were considered to be poison-type pets with considerable combat power.

Including the Illusionary Poisonous Butterfly fluttering in front of the Patterned Butterfly, she has a total of three poisonous pets, which means she is a poison-specialized beast tamer like Lan Yingdan.

But is it really the confidence that she's showing when she deliberately provoked herself, with only one Dawn quality and two Commander quality items?
A thought flashed through Chen Yuan's mind. He glanced at Spark and Cola, who had already broken through to the fourth rank, and then at Morning and Evening Flower Fairy, who was halfway to the fourth rank. He was puzzled by Wen Die's confidence.

Are all the people in this organization this brave?

Having summoned three pet beasts at the same time, Wen Die's mental energy was rapidly depleted. She took a slight breath, rubbed her throbbing temples, and grinned, "Attack together."

In beast tamer battles, one-on-one combat is the norm, allowing beast tamers to focus on the battle at hand without consuming too much mental energy.

However, if the battle becomes intense and requires multiple pets to fight at the same time, this will severely test the mental strength of the beast tamer.

With each additional pet, the beast tamer's mental energy is consumed more. Moreover, they must also pay attention to the battles of multiple pets simultaneously. In addition, the situation is constantly changing, and ordinary beast tamers simply cannot cope with such a chaotic battle.

Most beast tamers will choose to simply give up and let their pets fight on their own, handling the details of the battle themselves, while they only need to formulate basic tactics and pay attention to the overall situation of the battle.

Only a very small number of beast tamers who are very confident in themselves will choose to command the entire process. They not only pay attention to the changes in the situation, but also control the details, even down to when the pet should dodge and when to use a skill.

Of course, after such battles, beast tamers are often mentally and physically exhausted and are forced to rest for a long time.

Chen Yuan falls somewhere in between.

He has a lot of mental energy and some experience in command, but he never likes micro-management.

In his view, the kids' ability to make on-the-spot judgments and react is far superior to his own; he only needs to formulate general tactics and give instructions at crucial moments.

When Wendie sent out three pet beasts, Chen Yuan glanced at Leng Yi not far away and saw that there was still only that giant beetle in front of him. He made a decision in an instant.

"Cola, you go deal with this guy."

Cola had been staring intently at the dreadful butterfly that dared to speak disrespectfully to its master. Its eyes were sharp, its teeth bared, and its body was surging with energy. It was just waiting for its master's command to launch a fierce attack and show this guy what it was made of.

Following the direction its owner was pointing, Cola turned its head and saw the bizarre giant beetle and a group of frenzied pets in front of it, and was immediately stunned.

"Ow!"

Cola was unhappy and wanted to teach that wicked woman a lesson!

Chen Yuan reassured him, "This guy is even more powerful. That big worm seems to be an advanced form of the Soul-Devouring Gu. It looks like it can directly command those Soul-Devouring Gu."

After a brief pause, Chen Yuan suddenly sighed and deliberately said:
"Letting you deal with so many crazed beasts alone is a very difficult task. I know it's challenging, but if you don't have the confidence, then forget it."

Before he could finish speaking, Cola charged forward with a roar, its light brown fur fluttering in the wind, its azure eyes gleaming with blue light, and a barrage of sharp wind blades whistling out.

I love taking on challenging tasks!

give it to me!

Seeing the reaction from the cola, Chen Yuan nodded in satisfaction.

Cola excels at group attacks, and its full range of skills allows it to easily handle numerous opponents, making it the perfect choice to deal with this group of crazed pets.

As for Spark and Dawn Fairy, Chen Yuan directly assigned them to deal with the three pet beasts of the Patterned Butterfly.

Two against three, the advantage is in my hands!

At the same moment, the Illusionary Poisonous Butterfly of the Patterned Butterfly endured its pain, and its damaged, bewitching wings began to vibrate at a high frequency once again.

Before long, a large swath of dense, poisonous fog, shimmering with an eerie phosphorescence and carrying a sweet, hallucinogenic scent, surged forth as if alive, quickly enveloping an area of ​​nearly a hundred meters in radius.

The poisonous fog, combined with the thick darkness of night, quickly reduced visibility, making it seem as if the group had stumbled into a chaotic and eerie foggy region.

Apart from the pets from the New Star Society, the other pets present quickly felt dizzy, their movements became sluggish, their breathing became difficult, and their condition was clearly negatively affected.

Chen Yuan remained calm, pondering to himself, "This should be a racial skill of the Illusionary Poison Butterfly."

This poisonous fog is different from the [Sweet Fragrance] controlled by the Morning and Evening Flower Fairy. Although it cannot put creatures into a state of unconsciousness, it can affect the status of creatures over a wide area, causing them to feel dizzy or slow down.
This also falls under the category of wide-area crowd control skills.

As the poisonous fog gradually drifted towards Chen Yuan, Chen Mu Hua Xian's gaze turned cold as she waved her hands, preparing to resist. However, a beam of emerald green light shone first.

Chen Yuan looked down and saw that Qingpo's crystal-clear antlers were shining brightly, accompanied by a vibrant green light. An energy barrier enveloped his entire body, keeping the poisonous fog out.

"Well done." Chen Yuan patted Qing Po's head.

"Yo~"

Qingpo looked up, blinking her bright eyes at Chen Yuan, and snuggled closer to him.

"sing"

At this moment, the Morning and Evening Flower Fairy's eyes grew even colder.

"Can you dispel this poisonous fog directly?"

A thought flashed through his mind, and Chen Yuan lowered his head to ask Qing Po.

"Yo~"

Upon hearing Chen Yuan's question, Qing Po shook her head and glared angrily at the Illusionary Poison Demon Butterfly.

It was ambushed by this skill before; its body went limp, and it was almost caught!
Its condition has not fully recovered yet; it had just gone through a long chase and is temporarily unable to dispel the poisonous fog.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yuan showed no disappointment, but simply nodded.

Meanwhile, while other pets were negatively affected, Steel-Spine Scorpion and Bloodthorn Rose seemed to be bathed in sweet rain, their auras becoming even more ferocious.

Chen Yuan turned his head and saw that Chen Mu Hua Xian was not affected in the slightest; on the contrary, her aura became even colder and more indifferent.

His eyes flickered, and for a moment he couldn't figure out whether the poisonous fog was ineffective against poison-type pets or simply had no effect on the Morning and Evening Flower Fairy.

Before they could think any further, a chaotic battle was brewing, accompanied by the dense poisonous fog that covered most of the area.

Bloodthorn Rose initiated the melee, its stamens trembling slightly beneath its Gothic hood, its vine arms waving in response, unleashing countless fine, hair-like, and blood-red sharp thorns that rained down on the sparks in mid-air!
At the same moment, the Steel-Spine Scorpion let out a low hiss, its thick limbs exerted force, and its massive body leaped high into the air with a speed that was disproportionate to its size.

The next moment, the pair of terrifying pincers, powerful enough to cut through steel, accompanied by a fierce wind that tore through the air, clamped down hard on Spark's wings, attempting to drag her down from the sky.

Spark remained calm despite the sudden attack from both above and below.

"Chirp!"

With a clear, melodious cry, its broad, golden-red wings flapped violently. It first tried to dispel the surrounding poisonous mist, but the mist was like a persistent, intractable disease that was difficult to remove immediately.

Then Spark's eyes flashed, and it opened its mouth again to spew out a thick, scorching pillar of fire. The flames exploded, and a rolling heat wave spread out, breaking through the air.

Rumble!
The surging pillar of fire struck the dense cluster of scarlet thorns precisely, instantly incinerating them into ashes under the intense heat.

At the same moment, a fierce wind howled in, and a sharp, cold light reflected in their eyes.

Spark deftly sidestepped and flipped, easily dodging the powerful pincers of the Steel-Spined Scorpion, the gust of wind whipping up by the pincers brushing against its feathers. But at that very moment, the Illusionary Poison Butterfly, which had been waiting for its chance, seized the fleeting opportunity.

Taking advantage of the darkness, the alluring wings fluttered, and the Phantom Poison Butterfly silently appeared behind Spark. It opened its mouthparts and suddenly unleashed a silent, lightning-fast ray of dark green venom.

This insidious ray struck the relatively weak wing root area of ​​the spark directly, at a tricky angle, making it exceptionally ruthless.

Upon witnessing this scene, Yuan Xiong and Wang Ze were immediately distressed and their eyes widened, while Chen Yuan, who was in the midst of it, remained expressionless.

Do you really think the kids' pre-competition training was all for nothing?
Without any effort from Spark, the Morning and Evening Flower Fairy, who had been guarding her side, had a cold gaze. She gently clasped her petals together, and a dazzling white light suddenly burst forth!
The next moment, the eclipse beam rapidly converged, carrying a dazzling white light that was almost blinding, with pure life energy attached to it, and then it roared towards the venom ray!

The beams of sunlight during an eclipse resemble brilliant sunlight, but they are not the sacred and majestic heat of sparks; rather, they possess a gentle energy imbued with life.

But gentleness is relative.

boom!
In that instant, the eclipse beam and the venom ray collided violently, accompanied by a deafening roar. Black smoke billowed in mid-air, and surging air waves, along with the aftershocks of the collision, suddenly erupted in all directions, blowing through the flowers, grass, and trees.

However, the eclipse beam did not dissipate; it carried its remaining power and streaked across the sky once more, heading straight for the Illusionary Poison Butterfly.

Fortunately, the Illusionary Poison Butterfly managed to retract its wings in time and wrap itself in a cocoon, thus narrowly escaping the remaining force.

Then, the Illusionary Poison Butterfly spread its bewitching wings, scattering phosphorescent powder, and its huge compound eyes gazed at the Morning and Evening Flower Fairy from afar.

Seeing this, Wen Die smiled and said, "Advisor Chen, I heard that your Morning and Evening Fairy is also a poison-attribute pet. Why don't you try to see which one is more powerful?"

Hearing this, Chen Yuan remained unmoved, but Yuan Xiong and Wang Ze, who had overheard it from afar, exchanged a glance, with the former muttering, "This woman is absolutely insane."

Wang Ze nodded in agreement: "No wonder they have so many crazy pets. Madmen paired with crazy beasts, that makes perfect sense."

Wen Die's provocative words had no effect on Chen Yuan. He even muttered to himself that this guy might have some mental problems, and that he was pitiful at such a young age.

With his thoughts settled and his eyes calm, Chen Yuan made a tactical adjustment in an instant: "Spark, Steelspine Scorpion and Bloodthorn Rose are yours."

In addition, as a poison-type pet, the Morning and Evening Fairy has extremely strong resistance to poison-type skills, making it the best choice to deal with the Illusionary Poison Butterfly.

At the same time, he glanced at another battle group:
Cola was constantly whipping up a whirlwind as it fiercely battled the giant beetle that vibrated its six pairs of wings and emitted eerie sound waves to control its frenzied horde of pet beasts. It was too busy to help dispel the annoying poisonous fog.

This giant beetle did not display any offensive capabilities, but it was able to control the swarm of frenzied beasts. With their sheer numbers and relentless nature, they temporarily entangled Cola.

These mediocre, crazed pets, besides being unaware of pain and fatigue, have no advantages whatsoever. Although they can temporarily entangle Cola, they cannot go any further and cause any damage.

"Ow!"

Cola, surrounded by a gentle breeze and four shimmering blue ripples, strolled leisurely among the frenzied beasts. Every time his figure blurred, a beast would fall down.

With howling wind blades and raging gales, it was only a matter of time before these frenzied beasts fell.

Seeing that Cola was handling these guys with ease, Chen Yuan finally felt relieved. He withdrew his gaze and turned his attention to what was ahead.

"Chirp!"

The spark, capable of taking on two opponents, soared high in the air, its golden-red flames burning continuously, its momentum surging ever higher.

In the next instant, the golden-red light in Spark's eyes intensified, and it suddenly let out a long cry that pierced through the clouds and shattered rocks. The golden-red flames burning around its body instantly surged, as if it had transformed into a miniature sun descending upon the world.

Racial skill, Neon Flame!

At this moment, the magnificent wings vibrated violently at a frequency beyond the limits of the naked eye, and countless feathers burning with sacred flames detached from the wings, transforming into a sky full of burning meteor showers.

These fiery meteors did not fall randomly, but rather precisely covered a large area where the Steel-Spine Scorpion and Bloodthorn Rose were located.

In an instant, the entire sky was dyed a brilliant golden-red, the scorching heat distorted the air, large swaths of poisonous fog were evaporated and dispersed, and countless burning feathers fell like meteors, carrying a destructive aura, crashing down on the earth.

Boom, boom! ! !

The deafening explosions continued incessantly, leaving charred craters in the ground and flames spreading everywhere.

This terrifying scene, resembling a natural disaster, caused all creatures on the battlefield to involuntarily stop moving and stare blankly up at this breathtaking sight.

In the dense forest, wild animals howled in terror.

Yuan Xiong and Wang Ze exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes: "Advisor Chen is not going to act anymore?"

As fiery meteors, resembling meteorites, continued to fall, the Steel-Spine Scorpion let out a furious hiss.

It brandished its enormous pincers, attempting to shatter the fiery meteor hurtling towards it, and with a bang, it successfully destroyed one of the meteors.

But the bursting, blazing flames, like a bone-deep infection, instantly ignited the sharp bone spurs on its carapace. The flames burned wildly, bringing intense pain and a burning sensation, while a faint smell of burning wafted through the air.

As a plant-based pet, Bloodthorn Rose was terrified.

It tried to wave its vine arms to block and dodge, but it was not known for its speed, and its plant-like body could not withstand the scorching flames.

Suddenly, a burning meteor struck its eerie and ornate Gothic hood with pinpoint accuracy, and the raging flames instantly engulfed its vision.

The Bloodthorn Rose let out a piercingly mournful cry as sacred flames ignited its entire body. It writhed on the ground in agony, trying to extinguish the flames, but they only grew stronger.

In the dense forest, flames raged, and deep pits burned with flames that had not yet been extinguished, the scorching temperature overpowering the cold wind.

The eyes of the pets present reflected the blazing fire and the bloodthorn roses rolling around on the ground.

Before long, the Bloodthorn Rose stopped struggling, and its charred body lay stiffly on the ground.

At this moment, a change finally appeared on Wendie's face.

The playful smile on his face froze instantly, replaced by a sudden contraction of pain and a gasp of surprise:

"How is this possible? My Bloodthorn Rose!"

Chen Yuan watched this scene calmly, waiting for Wen Die's next move.

In his view, Wen Die dared to provoke him with just these three pet beasts, so he must have a backup plan, which is what the latter relied on.

Seeing the dramatic change in Wen Die's expression, Chen Yuan was puzzled. Did this guy not have any backup plans?
Are all the New Star Club executives this weak?
In that brief moment when Wen Die was deeply shaken, Chen Mu Hua Xian, who had been dealing with the Illusionary Poisonous Butterfly, seized this excellent opportunity.

It clasped its hands together in front of its chest, and its body burst forth with an unprecedentedly brilliant light, as a vast and pure life and light energy rapidly converged.

It was still a beam of sunlight from an eclipse.

In an instant, a pure white beam of energy, condensed to its extreme and seemingly capable of piercing through everything, tore through space and shot straight toward the Illusionary Poison Butterfly.

At this moment, the Phantom Poison Butterfly felt a deadly threat. It screamed and desperately vibrated its injured wings, trying to dodge to the side.

"Yo~!"

But Qingpo, who had been hiding in Chen Yuan's arms, suddenly poked its head out, its pair of glass antlers radiating a warm, emerald-green glow.

Several thick, tough, green vines burst from the ground, instantly wrapping around the legs and wings of the Illusionary Poison Butterfly like a nimble giant python, firmly fixing it in place.

"No!" Wendie cried out in terror, but it was too late to stop it.

next moment.

A pure white beam of solar eclipse light swept in, completely engulfing the Illusionary Poison Butterfly, which was bound by vines and unable to move!

There was no violent explosion, only a soft "poof" sound, as if something had been completely purified and annihilated.

The light dissipated.

The Illusionary Poison Butterfly, like a puppet with its strings cut, was charred black and emitting blue smoke as it plummeted straight down from the sky, crashing heavily to the ground and completely losing consciousness.

Wendie stared blankly at her two main pets that had fallen instantly. The color drained from her face in an instant, and her previous arrogance and disdain vanished, leaving only immense shock and a trace of barely concealed fear.

Chen Yuan seemed oblivious to Wen Die's change in expression. He first patted Qing Po's head with a smile as a sign of praise, then looked up at Wen Die, his voice calm:
"I'll say it again, let's play a game."

"Let's see if you can escape faster, or if your pet will fall down faster?"
