Chapter 161 Misty Island (Seeking monthly votes!)

"Commander Ma, you have to tell me exactly what this is about first, right?" Yun Che had no choice but to ask again.

You can't just accept a strange task without knowing anything, can you?

What if there's a hole?

Battalion Commander Ma hesitated for a moment, then said, "This is a military secret. If you listen to it, it means you have to accept it."

Yun Che:

""

"Aren't you curious?"

Battalion Commander Ma suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Why do many other schools conduct their military training at the beginning of the semester, or within a month after, while you're doing it at such a strange time in December?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Che was taken aback.

To be honest, he was indeed curious about it.

But since it was an arrangement made by the school leaders, his curiosity was of no use.

However, when Battalion Commander Ma suddenly asked, Yun Che couldn't help but make some connections: "Was this mission assigned by the school?"

Seeing the questioning look in his eyes, Battalion Commander Ma spread his hands and said, "I can't say it was arranged by your school, I can only say that your school knew about it. This is partly the reason why it was timed to this point."

"Of course, because there is danger involved, the decision of whether or not to let you take on the mission is in our hands."

Hearing him say this, Yun Che felt a little more enlightened and less uneasy.

"I'm telling you clearly, there are risks involved."

"6

Risk... Yun Che silently repeated to himself.

If the benefits can indeed accelerate the growth and strengthening of the Beast Taming Space, then such benefits are inevitably accompanied by risks.

"However, we will try to minimize the risks."

Battalion Commander Ma took out a cigarette and gestured to Yun Che, asking if he wanted one.

Yun Che quickly waved his hand.

He lit a cigarette, took a puff, and said, "If Liu Jinghan hadn't mentioned it to me, I wouldn't have thought of letting you try."

This was a reminder to Yun Che that, in addition to their relationship as instructor and student, they were also colleagues in the "prison."

In fact, if Yun Che were to accept this mission, it wouldn't be a good thing for Ma Yanke.

After all, it is currently military training period, and as the battalion commander, Ma Yanke has to take responsibility for Yun Che, who is a student, and at least ensure his safety.

This is why students haven't been assigned this task during so many military training sessions.

Of course, there's another point: in the eyes of Battalion Commander Ma and his men... the students are too pampered and far less reliable than their own soldiers.

That's why, after meeting Yun Che, he immediately took him to face the Mountain-Splitting Rock Bear, ostensibly to test their strength, but actually to give Liu Jinghan an explanation.

If Yun Che hadn't won, or if he had won "fiercely," then he could use that as an excuse to "deal with" Liu Jinghan.

Unexpectedly, Yun Che actually demonstrated quite remarkable strength and ability.

That's why I had this idea.

After pondering for a while, Yun Che said helplessly, "Battalion Commander Ma, just tell me, what exactly do you want to do?"

Upon hearing this, Battalion Commander Ma smiled, knowing that Yun Che had agreed.

After pausing briefly, he began, "Our area is by the sea, and the richest resources, besides the sea itself, are some islands in the ocean."

Upon hearing this, Yun Che had a sudden thought.

So, the place he's going to is on an island?

However, he did not ask any questions, but let Battalion Commander Ma continue.

"And in this sea area of ​​ours, there is an island that is very rich in resources, but is shrouded in mist all year round. We call it 'Mist Island'."

"Only during December each year, due to air currents and environmental factors, does the fog around Misty Island dissipate somewhat."

Original origin...

Yun Che nodded.

Because it is shrouded in mist, the island's resources have not been extensively developed or harvested, which is why they are so abundant.

As for whether there is fog, does that mean we can't get in?

This is a world filled with extraordinary power; the fog may disrupt the magnetic field.

Furthermore, this kind of fog serves as a natural protective shield for many extraordinary wild creatures and also becomes their habitat.

Battalion Commander Ma quickly gave a similar answer.

Within the mists of "Mist Island" dwell many extraordinary creatures, especially those known as "Mist Fish," which possess a strong sense of territory and will attack any creature that approaches them.

"If that were all, it wouldn't be a big problem. The biggest problem is that within the mist of 'Mist Island,' there dwell exceptionally powerful extraordinary creatures."

Extremely powerful?

Yun Che couldn't help but interject, asking, "Overlord level?"

Battalion Commander Ma glanced at him and said in a deep voice, "Top-tier overlord."

Yun Che:

'

""

Top-tier overlord?

Wouldn't that be... equivalent to a small steamed bun?

However, even with such strength... it's not like human beast tamers are completely helpless against it, right?

Seemingly sensing Yun Che's thoughts, Battalion Commander Ma said, "Once we sent out a legendary beast tamer."

"Legendary?! No way...you've never played it before?"

"It's not that we've never fought before, but that was on their home turf, shrouded in mist. Whether to fight or flee was up to them."

Too...

Playing at home.

Battalion Commander Ma flicked his cigarette ash. "But after that incident, we developed some kind of tacit understanding with that guy."

"Every year when the fog clears, we send people to the island to collect resources."

"Then why..."

"Why not send some capable guys instead?"

Yun Che nodded.

Hiss—

As the cigarette burned, Battalion Commander Ma took a deep breath, slowly exhaled, and said, "One year, the higher-ups were pressing us hard, so we tried sending a group of... in the words of the Beast Tamer Association, elite high-level beast tamers to the island, and then..."

"That guy got angry and unleashed a beast tide on the island."

He shook off the ashes from his cigarette.

"We suffered heavy losses, so we sent out three legendary beast tamers."

"Three people?!" Yun Che's eyes widened. "Could it be..."

"No, we won, but a legend had a premonition that there is more than one overlord in the mist, there are others."

More than one?

Yun Che took a deep breath.

Good guy!

This foggy area is truly a terrifying place...

"And that's how the tacit understanding was formed."

After putting out his cigarette, Battalion Commander Ma continued, "There's another reason. The things on the island that can accelerate the strengthening of your Beast Taming Space can't be taken away, and they're only useful for Beast Tamers with Level 2 Beast Taming Spaces. The effect will be greatly reduced for Level 3 Beast Taming Spaces."

"The situation is quite complicated..." Yun Che couldn't help but complain after listening.

"It's not complicated," Battalion Commander Ma waved his hand. "Aren't there plenty of places like this?"

"a lot of?"

"Like..."

Before he could finish speaking, Battalion Commander Ma stopped, glaring at Yun Che with an annoyance. "Why are you asking so many questions, you brat?"

"In short, as long as we didn't send too many people or people with the strength of a lord or above, nothing else happened in the following years."

"Some experts have analyzed that those guys shrouded in mystery are pretty boring, you know?"

"They watched our people arrive on the island as if they were watching a show. After all... there are quite a few lord-level extraordinary creatures on the island, even though you don't even have a pet with the strength of a lord."

Upon hearing this, Yun Che's eye twitched. "You really do have quite a few hobbies."

"Exactly!" Battalion Commander Ma slammed his hand on the table. "In my opinion, we should just go up there and wipe out those guys in the mist, then we can harvest everything on 'Mist Island' at will!"

This... isn't good either... Yun Che thought to himself.

Taking too many resources at once will only lead to the impoverishment of places that were originally rich in resources.

"But those people said that trying to establish a tacit understanding with the guys in the fog, and then establishing communication, would be beneficial for our exploration of larger sea areas and the seabed."

So there was this other consideration...

Now that a tacit understanding has been basically established, the rest... is probably just a matter of when a channel for communication can be established.

However, these are things that those in power need to consider, and have little to do with him, a mere novice beast tamer.

"Commander Ma," Yun Che asked cautiously, "So... is it still safe now?"

"Don't get killed by those wild supernatural creatures on the island. Even if you're safe, we have people here to keep watch!" Battalion Commander Ma waved his hand.

That's good.

With a skilled beast tamer in charge, Yun Che felt at ease.

At worst... we can just go to an island and hide.

Only after ensuring your own safety should you complete the mission and collect supplies.

Moreover.

He wasn't the only one who went to the island.
