Chapter 44: Necromancy
Soon.
The three little squirrels were neatly placed in a row by Lu Ran, trembling.
"Don't be afraid, I'm a good person."
"As long as you answer me a few questions, I'll let you go."
Lu Ran looked at the three little squirrels kindly.
"Wang!" "Wow!" Mr. Ha and the King of Violent Death nodded.
Although I don't know what Lu Ran wants to catch these three guys for, Lu Ran is indeed a "good person".
I hope these three little squirrels are interesting.
It has to be said that having telepathy is convenient.
Lu Ran conveyed his meaning very clearly.
After understanding, the three little squirrels nodded frantically.
"What were you talking about?" Lu Ran asked.
The three little squirrels looked at each other, and the one in the middle cooed.
[Yesterday, two people fought in the mountains. γ
"Two people fighting in the mountains, and they still command monster-like creatures?" Lu Ran asked.
The little squirrel nodded immediately.
"Two Beast Master?" Lu Ran was slightly stunned.
However, how could two beast masters come to fight in such a place.
"And then?" Lu Ran asked.
[One, dead, buried.] γ
[The other one, gone.] γ
Lu Ran: ???
"it." Lu Ran's eyes widened suddenly.
He originally thought that the squirrel said cannibalism was just a metaphor, simply referring to a fight.
As a result, really killed?
"What kind of creatures do they command?" Lu Ran continued to ask.
γDead, cat......γ
[The other one, I don't know, it's terrible. γ
"Do you remember where the fight was? Take me to see it. Lu Ran said.
The three little squirrels looked at each other again, very resistant, but nodded because they were too afraid of Lu Ran.
A moment later, Lu Ran was taken to the place of yesterday's fight.
It's just that as soon as they came here, Lu Ran and Mr. Ha smelled the smell of blood that had not dissipated.
Looking at the mound that was just perfunctory and obviously had traces of burial, Lu Ran's heart beat quickly again.
, what's the situation.
Although he has a strong suppressive power against animals, he is still an ordinary high school student mentality in the face of such things as killing people and dead people.
When encountering this kind of thing, Lu Ran froze in place for a while, and he was a little unsure of what to do.
A beast master was killed and thrown into the wild!
Judging from the scene, the murderous beast master is not like the official beast master.
Otherwise, the disposal of corpses would not be so casual.
So, is it a vicious homicide?
What to do?
Alarm?
Will it cause trouble.
But if the police are not called, if the killer is a repeat offender and is not caught early, will more people be killed?
"Damn squirrel, if I don't hear this kind of thing, I will write down this hatred."
Mr. Harbin and the squirrels: ???
didn't think about it for long, Lu Ran took a deep breath, and decided to contact the official.
There is no way, the education he has received since childhood is like this, and Lu Ran still can't ignore this kind of thing in his heart.
When he was a child, he liked to learn swords, but not because he wanted to be a chivalrous man who drew his sword to help him when the road was uneven.
Even if I lose this dream to Mr. Harbin now...... But at least set an example for yourself!
"Let's find the little white dragon." Lu Ran thought about it and found that he could only contact him.
He should have a way to contact the official beast master of Jinling City.
It didn't take long for Xiao Bailong to connect the phone.
After receiving Lu Ran's call, Xiao Bailong was quite pleased, and he said, "Yo, classmate Xiao Lu, I haven't been in touch for a long time." β
"Let me guess, if I want to help you solve your school problems? High school is about to start, right? β
"It's not...... I found a buried corpse in the wilderness on the outskirts of the mountain, and my family has a keen sense of smell, and judged that the buried one is a beast master and a transcendent pet beast......"
Little White Dragon: ???
"it." The little white dragon also sighed, the last time Lu Ran contacted him, he found an escaped tiger, this time he contacted him, and found the body of a beast master?
This kid, why are there so many things.
What have you been doing all day!
"Where are you? Still in Green Sea City? Xiao Bailong's expression was serious, and he hurriedly asked.
It's no small thing for a beast master to be buried in the wild!
"No, I'm in Jinling City now."
"Jinling? That's easy to do! Xiao Bailong said: "My original boss was transferred to the Imperial Beast Building in Jinling, and I gave him your contact information." β
"Now that the security of each province has been managed separately, I am in the magic capital, and I don't know much about it."
"Okay." Lu Ran nodded.
Subsequently, Xiao Bailong hung up the call with Lu Ran and contacted his old boss.
The call was still coming through quickly.
"Zhao Group!"
"Bai Junjie? Why, just a few days after separation, what's the matter? β
"Do you remember that rookie beast master named Lu Ran Passerby Jia, whose ancestors have been related to animals for eighteen generations, and who is favored by Dr. Gu?"
"Remember! How can you not remember! This time I was transferred to Jinling, but I got closer to him, and I might have the opportunity to meet him in the future. β
"He's in Jinling now......" Xiao Bailong quickly described what Lu Ran encountered to his old boss.
There was instant silence on the other side of the phone, and he said eagerly: "Xiaobai, you give me his contact information quickly, it's urgent." β
β¦β¦
The three-way handover was very fast.
"Is it Lu Ran? I'm Xiao Bailong's boss, Zhao Chen, Xiao Bailong has already told me, where are you now? β
"I'm ......," Lu Ran quickly gave the other party the address.
"Classmate Lu Ran, thank you for your report, this matter is very likely to be related to a case we are pursuing, we will rush there immediately, you should be careful over there."
As soon as the phone hung up, Lu Ran sighed slightly, and looked at the buried traces again, things were really not simple.
The case is being pursued by the official Beastmaster...... So, the murderer may have already entered the official sight?!
"You can go." At this time, Lu Ran looked at the three little squirrels, they were useless, and planned to blow them away.
"Coo-coo...... The three little squirrels cried with joy and turned to run.
And Lu Ran, with Mr. Ha, continued to wait in place.
Lu Ran didn't dare to dig up the body, for fear of destroying the crime scene.
Definitely not because you don't dare.
[It's terrible, there are dead people, I'm going to die violently......] It's the king who died violently, and I was very excited the whole time.
As for Mr. Ha, this guy ...... The sky is not afraid of the earth, and I am looking at the sky and I don't know what to think.
The dispatch speed of the official beast master here in Jinling City was very fast, and there were not as many people as Lu Ran imagined, and after ten minutes, just the two of them came here.
Among them, a middle-aged man and a young man.
After they arrived, they immediately looked at Lu Ran, and the middle-aged man said, "Classmate Lu, I was the one who contacted you just now, is this the place?" β
"Yes." Lu Ran nodded.
Zhao Chen looked at the burial site with a solemn expression.
"Xiao Wang, I'll leave it to you here, I'll lead the way and leave first."
"Okay." The young man made an OK gesture.
"Student Lu, you can go back to the city with me first, and leave it to the professionals here." Zhao Chen said.
"Hmm." Lu Ran felt that Xiao Bailong's old boss should feel that he was a student and was not suitable for seeing such a scene as exhuming corpses, so he wanted to take him away first.
Lu Ran was not interested, so he greeted Mr. Ha and the lizard lying on his body and said, "Then let's go." β
Don't eat the king of violent death.
Over here...... Feng Shui is not good.
Soon, Lu Ran and they went down the mountain.
During this period, Zhao Chen asked Lu Ran about the incident in more detail.
Naturally, it was impossible for Lu Ran to say that he heard it from the squirrel, so he adapted it with more oil and vinegar.
From coming to Jinling City by myself to why I went up the mountain, I made it clear.
"You're so lucky, you actually used the Awakening Leaf to evolve a reptile pet with good qualifications!"
Looking at the violent death king on Mr. Ha's body, Zhao Chen couldn't help but say, he is worthy of being a newcomer that Dr. Gu fancies, and he is worthy of being the royal N generation whose ancestors are all related to animals for eighteen generations.
At this time, Zhao Chen answered the phone again.
"Is that him?" Zhao Chen asked.
"That's right, Tao Hua, a first-year student at Jinling Normal University, has just become a beast master, his roommate reported yesterday that he went to the field to level up, but he disappeared overnight and did not return, and his friend who is also a beast master found that his identity card was cancelled, and he couldn't be contacted in Infinite City." Said on the other side of the phone.
"Now it seems that he was killed. One person and one pet, all of them are already dead. β
"Then call someone to dispose of the body and contact the family first, and I'll go to the headquarters to see if I can find any powerful foreign aid and solve this matter as soon as possible." Zhao Chen sighed, and then hung up the phone.
"Uncle Zhao, what kind of case is this?" In order to draw in the relationship with Lu Ran, Zhao Chen directly asked Lu Ran to call Uncle Zhao.
At this time, although Lu Ran was not interested in the corpse, he was still quite interested in the case.
Facing Lu Ran's inquiry, Zhao Chen smiled bitterly: "You came to Jinling, it's really not the right time to come, it's not peaceful here recently." β
"You have just become a beast master, so you may not know that in the world, there is a mysterious organization called 'The Other Shore', and they have a special skill that can be upgraded by hunting other beast masters and pet beasts."
"The other side has members from all over the world and is an international criminal organization."
"With the arrival of the fourth batch of beast masters, they have been particularly active recently, and I have just been transferred to Jinling's side, and I have noticed that there are traces related to the other side."
"If you are not mistaken, that person is the target of hunting by the members of the other side."
"Can you level up by killing beast masters and pet beasts? How can you still have this skill? Lu Ran was shocked, damn, why hadn't I heard of it before.
Is there such a danger of becoming a beast master?
Even if you don't enter the dangerous secret realm, you may still be targeted?
You can't kill monsters in the secret realm to upgrade...... Can it be between beast masters?
On Mr. Ha's body, the eyes of the violent death king widened, and he only felt that the world was so dangerous.
"Wang!" Mr. Ha was speechless, don't tremble.
"Don't worry, the base camp on the other side is abroad, and there are basically some small fish and shrimp in China, which will be knocked out immediately after they appear, and it will not give them the opportunity to form a force in the summer country!" Zhao Chen said.
"But this group of people is very good at hiding, and it is indeed difficult to deal with, if you encounter them in the future, it is better to find a chance to run immediately, use the identity card, and quickly escape to Infinite City."
"That newcomer, probably because he didn't have the experience of dealing with 'necromancy', he couldn't escape in time and was devoured by his soul."
"Necromancy, soul?" Lu Ran was confused.
Zhao Chen explained: "The members of the other side, it is no longer accurate to say that it is a beast master, they have mastered a special skill, they will kill their own contract pet beasts, transform them into necromantic slavery, hunt other beast masters, pet beasts to upgrade themselves, relying on devouring the souls of other transcendent beings. β
"Therefore, internationally, they are more known as necromancers than beast masters."
