Beast Taming: My spirit beast bloodline is overloaded

Chapter 22 Guild Warning
The next day, Xia Yu returned to the Monster Hunter Guild to compile the information.

The Monster Guild has a simple personnel structure, usually consisting of four people: three main combatants and one information specialist or pure support.

There are quite a few branch teams in Nine Star City. Xia Yu's team is Team Thirteen, and the captain is Wu Lei.

"How did it go?" Wu Lei asked as Xia Yu walked in. "Any success?"

Wu Lei is muscular and has a long scar on his face.

In this line of work, it's practically impossible to be completely free of injuries.

Xia Yu also has quite a few scars on his body; although there aren't any on his face, there are quite a few on his arms.

"We've collected quite a bit of money," Xia Yu said, holding up the bag.

Lin Chen guessed correctly; this time, there were a full 30,000.

Human beings have a very strong gambling mentality.

"It seems that a lot of people are involved."

“Most of them are here to try their luck.” Xia Yu smiled wryly, not holding any expectations: “I shouldn’t have believed Huang Xiaotian’s bad idea. I was so bored sitting there.”

"Haha, let me take a look." Wu Lei took it.

Xia Yu is very serious about her work, and she has noted down what Lin Chen said about the new direction.

"Go upstairs and call Huang Xiaotian. We'll go take a look now."

Wu Lei glanced at it; a week had passed since he discovered the poisonous bee beast's murderous incident.

The city government and the Beast Taming Guild are pressing them urgently because there are several rural areas near the location of the Poisonous Bee Beast, and they are afraid that more people will die.

Xia Yu went upstairs, and soon the sound of arguing could be heard.

Huang Xiaotian is a young man, younger than Wu Lei and Xia Yu, and is an information-type spirit beast.
【Ghostly Beast】

[Skill: Echoing Sound - Extremely sensitive to sound, able to detect sounds within a certain range]

This kind of spirit beast is very useful in information-related fields. It looks like a bat, is small in size, and is fast.

"Look, I can earn 30,000 yuan for free just by using my brain," Huang Xiao said smugly as he went downstairs.

“Next time you go, I’ll rest,” Xia Yu snapped.

Wu Lei got used to it; if the two of them didn't argue for a day, he'd think they were still half asleep.

He set off with the two of them, searching for the locations that the others had guessed.

As the saying goes, many people have many ideas, and the Beastmaster Guild is no exception, with its talented members speculating on many new directions.

But none of them are correct.

"There's no need to investigate this waterfall, is there?" When it was Lin Chen's turn to reason, Wu Lei glanced at it and prepared to give up.

Their range was one kilometer from the location of the murder.

It becomes very difficult to search if the search volume is too large.

Huang Xiaotian picked it up, glanced at it, and saw that it said:

The entrance to the secret realm is beneath the fire bushes, but the real entrance is at the waterfall.

He then said, "There's no need for you to record this, is it just wishful thinking?"

Xia Yu recalled for a moment and said, "What that kid said made sense, so I wrote it down. He said there might be an underground river."

Huang Xiaotian was taken aback and also fell into memories.

Most information-based beast tamers are meticulous and thoughtful; they are responsible for collecting and completing many information clues.

He recalled that it was indeed a bit strange at the time, as the soil under the fire bushes shouldn't have the same humidity as the surrounding area.

"Continue." Huang Xiaotian's expression was very serious.

"Are you serious?" Xia Yu was taken aback. Despite the bickering and commotion, she trusted Huang Xiaotian's thinking ability and continued, "He also said that the reason we couldn't find each other's scent was because they were washed away when they entered the waterfall, and their scent was masked."

Xia Yu tried her best to recall and recounted all the clues Lin Chen had given her.

"What else did you say?"

"He also said that this hideout might be a bit big, and told us to be careful." Xia Yu finished speaking and then remembered something, adding, "The other party seems to be a newbie beast tamer."

"That's why I've been advising you not to judge people by their age," Huang Xiaotian exhaled.

"What do you mean?" Xia Yu narrowed her eyes, thinking, "Did I give you the time of day?" Wu Lei interjected, "Xiaotian, what do you mean?"

“What he said is somewhat possible,” Huang Xiaotian said, then walked ahead, with the two quickly following.

We successfully found the waterfall and indeed discovered a small cave inside, though it wasn't very deep.

There are rocks everywhere here, and quite a few holes.

"How do we find it?" Xia Yu asked.

"We just need to find a hole the size of a poisonous bee beast," Huang Xiaotian thought clearly.

Xia Yu and Wu Lei searched everywhere and compared several options before finding three.

Huang Xiaotian summoned the Ghostly Beast and began to venture deeper.

The first one, no.

There was no second one.

"Difficult." Wu Lei and Xia Yu exchanged glances, thinking that this clue was definitely useless.

Entering the third one, Huang Xiaotian closed his eyes again, following the perspective of the Ghostly Beast as he delved deeper into it.
Suddenly, Huang Xiaotian shouted:
"Whispering Beast, run!"

Wu Lei and his companion were stunned. Before they could react, they saw the Gloomy Beast charge out.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of poisonous bee beasts could be heard from behind, followed by a large number of poisonous bee beasts rushing out.

Before Wu Lei and Xia Yu could even react in surprise, they stood in front of Huang Xiaotian. Wu Lei summoned his spirit beast, while Xia Yu lifted a heavy 20-pound rock with one hand and hurled it at him.

Wu Lei summoned a spirit beast named Fire Monkey. As soon as it appeared, it began to make a ball of fire, which grew larger and larger before being thrown out.

"Walk."

The three of them jumped down immediately, but just as they landed, a collapse occurred behind them, leaving Fire Monkey at the very back.

"It's really here." Xia Yu exclaimed in surprise.

Lin Chen guessed it perfectly.

Huang Xiaotian said, "Hurry back and call for reinforcements. This hideout is quite large."

The two nodded, understanding in their hearts.

Once a poisonous bee-like creature is discovered, it must be eliminated as soon as possible because its nature is:
Once discovered, they will move immediately.

Lin Chen hadn't gone out for two days. Little White leveled up very quickly, not only because it was diligent, but also because it had benefited greatly from its previous battle with the Flame Wolf.

So Xiaobai has already broken through to level four.

Thanks to it, Lin Chen finally reached level two.

Lin Chen has decided that once Xiaobai reaches level ten, he will perform a second bloodline purification on it.

Because divine beasts enter their first evolution stage around level 20, but Xiaobai's bloodline percentage is not good enough yet.

However, the thought of evolution gave Lin Chen a headache.

Evolution requires materials, and each one is incredibly expensive.

If Lin Chen's current income doesn't improve the situation by then, he'll really have to start taking out loans.

After all, evolution is a big deal.

As for Xiao Hong, since it cannot currently form a contract with Lin Chen, its cultivation speed is relatively slow.

This little fox seems to be lost in thought all day long; lately, it likes to daydream.

Lin Chen picked up the guild machine to check what tasks were available, only to see a red warning message on the homepage.

"Another beast tide?!" Lin Chen exclaimed in surprise, thinking that there seemed to be an unusually large number of beast tides this year.

Clicking on it reveals the content:

[Warning: The area 5 to 6 kilometers northeast of the northeast gate of Jiuxing City has been strictly sealed off]

Today, the Beastmaster Guild, in conjunction with the Monster Hunter Guild, destroyed the Poison Bee Beast's hideout. However, due to the sheer number of Poison Bee Beasts, they cannot be completely eradicated at present.

[Due to the characteristics of the Poisonous Bee Beast, Beast Tamers are prohibited from approaching or staying away from this area for five days. Those who violate this rule will bear the consequences themselves.]
