Chapter 357: Chapter 290: Assemble! Pursue and Kill Zheng Cheng!_1
Jia Peiran was in the midst of a crazed outburst when suddenly a figure stood in front of him.
A large Lizard-man.
Unlike other Lizard-men, this one had black scales and bulging muscles that exuded a violent aura.
Without pausing, Jia Peiran casually said, “Komoro, clan leader, is there something you need from me?”
Komoro looked at Jia Peiran’s actions with admiration, very satisfied with the subordinate who had reincarnated from a human into a Lizard-man, and said, “Her Highness Freya of the Wolf Tribe has summoned you to help her complete a mission. Take some men and go.”
“Her Highness Freya of the Wolf Tribe?”
Jia Peiran asked curiously, “Who is she? Is her status important?”
“Of course,” Komoro said gravely, “Her Highness Freya is a true princess of the Wolf Tribe, the eleventh in line for succession.”
“If you gain her favor, you might even become one of her followers and enter the realm of the Wolf Kingdom, becoming a noble of the Beastman Empire…”
“A werewolf princess, huh… heh heh heh…”
Jia Peiran chuckled, “I wonder what she looks like. Is she like those cat-eared girls from Blue Star…”
“Hmph!”
Komoro said coldly, “Her Highness Freya is the number one beauty of the Ice Wolf Tribe. If you dare show her any disrespect, not just you, even I won’t be able to escape the consequences!”
“Got it! Ha, ha…”
Suddenly, Jia Peiran began to gasp heavily, clearly at a critical moment, and with a final charge, he thrust forward fiercely.
At the same time, he grabbed the curved knife at his waist and violently chopped down at the person beneath him.
“Ah!”
“Hahaha, hahaha… awesome!”
Minutes later, Jia Peiran left the valley with several members of the Beast Desire Organization and three Lizard-man Professionists, quickly heading toward the rendezvous with Freya.
Shortly after his departure, the Lizard-men and Jackal Werewolves who were attacking the valley became incredibly flustered and scattered in panic.
The trees that stood outside the valley suddenly came alive, as countless vines and roots burst forth, binding and then throttling every Jackal Werewolf and Lizard-man they caught!
More than thirty ancient war trees, each over a thousand years old, stood guard at the valley’s entrance, repelling all invaders.
Komoro smiled cruelly, revealing a row of sharp teeth.
With a flip of his hand, a large totem pole, over two meters tall, appeared in his grasp, which he held closely to his chest.
“My warriors!”
He roared, his voice echoing throughout the entire valley.
“Follow me in the charge!”
The next second, a bloody light burst from the totem pole in his hand, enveloping a kilometer radius in an instant. Nearly all Lizard-man and Jackal Werewolves were covered within it.
Brutal Aura.
A battle hymn aura unique to Lizard-men, turning targets bloodthirsty, briefly enhancing their attack power and killing intent, dispelling fear, and confronting enemies head-on.
“Kill them!”
“Charge! Everyone charge in!”
“Wipe out that damned Human Race!”
Under Komoro’s furious roar, numerous Jackal Werewolves and Lizard-men, as if injected with a stimulant, frantically charged toward the valley.
Accompanying their charge, dense vines fell from the sky and roots burst from the ground, also plunging into their formation.
In an instant, men and horses were thrown into disarray, and blood flowed like rivers.
Because of the physical traits of the Cave Beastmen, it was very difficult for members of their tribe to awaken as mages or sorcerers who could control fire elements.
Facing enemies who were primarily giant trees, they could only fill the ranks with their lives!
…
Half a day later, Jia Peiran and his group finally arrived at the rendezvous with Freya.
Besides them, there were several other figures.
The team hunting Zheng Cheng now totaled 26 people!
Freya herself, Brett, the Beast Desire Organization’s Zhao Gou, Jia Peiran, and nine others.
Four Lizard-man Professionists.
Six Jackal Werewolf Professionists.
Five Hyena Man Professionists.
Flereya spoke in a cold voice, “This task involves hunting down a Human Sub-dragon Knight who dared to infiltrate our Beastman Tribe’s territory. This person is extremely strong in close combat, has a juvenile sub-dragon as a pet, and is also capable of… Illusion Technique.”
With gritted teeth, she added, “Black Bone!”
“Your Highness!”
A Hyena Man Professionist covered in black fur immediately answered.
“You have the strongest sense of smell. Your task is to find the specific location of this person in Xi’an, but do not approach him on your own. Wait for us to catch up and surround him!”
“Yes! Your Highness!”
Black Bone acknowledged with a shout, quickly taking his leave.
“Yakcha!”
“Your Highness, what are your orders?”
A tall Jackal Werewolf spoke respectfully; their Jackal Werewolf Tribe, like the Hyena Man Tribe, were vassal tribes of the Wolf Tribe, and they were absolutely loyal to Flereya’s commands.
“You are to stay behind Black Bone and his team, closing in fan formation, and try to drive the target to our predetermined encirclement location.”
“Yes! Your Highness!”
With a wave of his hand, Yakcha led the Jackal Werewolf Professionists away swiftly.
“You…”
The leading Lizard-man Professionist spoke respectfully, “Your Highness Flereya, you may address me as Long Tongue.”
“Long Tongue…” Flereya nodded, “Your task is to accompany me in surrounding and slaying that Human Sub-dragon Knight. Understood?”
“Understood, Your Highness!”
“Lastly, it’s you…”
Flereya looked at Zhao Gou and Jia Peiran, as well as the members of the Beast Desire Organization behind them.
“I’m not too familiar with your strengths, but as a princess of the Wolf Tribe, I can make you a promise.”
“Whoever manages to capture or kill that damned Human, I can grant you one reasonable request.”
“You… act freely!”
Upon hearing this, the expressions of those present changed dramatically.
Zhao Gou’s eyes burned with fervor; he yearned to increase his strength and become a noble of the Beastman Empire.
Once he was a noble, it would mean he had truly renounced his Human Race identity, becoming one of the Beastman Tribe!
Jia Peiran, on the other hand, was covertly staring at Flereya’s figure, his eyes also full of fervor.
However, his fervor was focused on Flereya herself.
“Hehehe… Beastman girl, indeed beautiful, and with the charm of another race.”
“These beast ears, this tail, they’re just too compatible with my fetish!”
Jia Peiran roared madly in his heart, “Flereya, you’re mine! Wahahaha… You’re mine, and no one can snatch you away!”
Zhao Gou quickly said, “Rest assured, Your Highness Flereya, we will definitely complete the task!”
Flereya nodded and turned to leave, while Jia Peiran continued to stare intently at Flereya’s retreating figure.
Zhao Gou frowned and said, “Jia Peiran, put away those disgusting thoughts in your head. If your mouth offends Her Highness Flereya, all of us from the Beast Desire will be buried with you!”
“Hehehehe…” Jia Peiran chuckled, “Such a beauty, if I could savor her charm, even death would be welcome!”
“What? You…” Jia Peiran looked on in alarm, “What exactly do you want to do?!”
“What do I want to do?” Jia Peiran sneered, “Of course, to eliminate that Human Trial Participant, hahaha…”
No sooner had he spoken than his figure darted out.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Flereya and Brett were also closely following behind the Jackal Werewolf Professionists.
Brett said, “Your Highness, do you really trust those Humans? Especially that one reincarnated as a Lizard-man, my subordinate really wants to gouge out his eyes!”
“Brett, remember this proverb of our Wolf Tribe. A wolf travels a thousand miles to feed on meat, a dog travels a thousand miles to eat shit!”
Flereya spoke indifferently, “What we need are capable individuals, not a bunch of useless creatures.”
“If they truly can help us kill that damned Human Sub-dragon Knight, why not give them a little incentive?”
“But that Lizard-man Reincarnator…”
A flicker of coldness crossed Flereya’s eyes, “He’d best behave, or I won’t mind killing a Fallen One…”
