Beast Taming Patrol

In a secluded and dark alley sandwiched between two tall buildings, a muscular man calmly hung up his phone, which was on speaker, and casually pocketed the communication device, casting an indifferent glance towards the four people behind him.

"You all heard it, right?" Steward Tang's face carried a hint of coldness, "According to the information, Lin Su should be boarding the transport plane back to Sector 11 in two hours, but so far, there's no sign that he's making a move. You should all be clear on how Kui Si and the others failed before."

"We cannot afford a second failure, otherwise the entire Sect 32 branch will be cleaned out by the Eastern Spirit Envoys, and no one will get off easy." Steward Tang's eyes slightly dropped, "Therefore, under any circumstances, we must be prepared for the worst."

"Since he hasn't left, assume he's onto our plan and waiting for reinforcements." Steward Tang's gaze flickered slightly, "No need to stake out and ambush any longer, the plan has changed, we're going on the offensive, and the sooner the better, delays mean complications."

With that, he started walking toward the mouth of the alley.

The four figures behind him looked at each other and hurriedly followed.

"Steward Tang..." One of the tall, thin men couldn't help but speak up, "The phone call mentioned that Lin Su has a beast with a regular energy value near ten thousand... That's already peak strength for an elite-tier, monarch-class species, right? Isn't his beast Xue Henqing?"

"Wasn't the mission to capture Qin Nan alive also unexpected, with no one anticipating Qin Nan was already a hall-level Beast Tamer?" Steward Tang's expression didn't waver, and he didn't break stride, "Taking the lesson from before, I've never treated Lin Su as a mere apprentice Beast Tamer. If jumping one rank isn't enough, then jump two. In the face of absolute strength, all informational discrepancies are illusory."

"Don't mention his beast's nearly ten thousand energy value, even if he has already mastered Guardian Beast Co-operation, he's still going to die."

"Let's go." As he spoke, Steward Tang had already emerged from the alleyway and stepped onto a hovering car parked by the roadside in two or three strides, "Keep up, and move quickly."

"Yes!" The few people quickly caught up and took their seats in the vehicle.

The next moment, the hover car rose from the ground, suspended in midair, and headed off into the distance.

...

"Ding-a-ling!"

The roaring wind halted silently in front of a light membrane before even reaching the Gray Feathered Lion Hawk, with not even the sound of the wind able to penetrate through.

Within the silent interior of the light membrane, the communication device's alert suddenly broke the silence.

"Tch, it's just unauthorized flying, just pay the fine when we get back, was there really a need to call about it?" Qin Nan, who had already been on her way for a while, couldn't help but mutter under her breath before picking up the communication device. But upon seeing the caller ID, her expression froze and became increasingly grave. Continue your story on m-vl-em,py-r

Answering the call, the more she heard the other end speak, the darker Qin Nan's expression turned.

By the time she hung up, her face was filled with murderous intent.

Damn it, I was careless!

It had never occurred to her that Lin Su, who had only just made a name for himself at the beast breeding contest a few days ago, would already be targeted by the cult!

Generally speaking, researchers with major research findings and years of experience weren't weak, as most of the spiritual evolution techniques and various methods to boost strength were first trialed on the researchers' own beasts. This resulted in many of them possessing strong and unique beast evolutions.

For instance, Qin Nan's Gray Feathered Lion Hawk was stronger than a normally evolved one because it underwent evolution using some new resources. It wasn't an average monarch-class species as the record stated; even among the higher monarch-class species, it was a cut above the rest.

This scenario was not uncommon among the beasts belonging to researchers, giving them ample self-protection against dangers and helping them survive assaults from the cult.

However, there was the exceptional case of Lin Su, an unbelievably young research prodigy. The very first time he made a public appearance, he revealed shocking work like the Spirit Evolution Technique, yet had no self-protective ability.

Curse it, she had thought of this issue before!

Qin Nan's brows were tightly knit.

Originally, she intended to submit a request to the Beast Tamer Association of Sector 11 upon her return, to put Lin Su on the protection list.

Once Lin Su was included on this list, before he possessed mastery-level combat strength, any travel outside safe areas would be accompanied by protection from strong individuals dispatched by the Beast Tamer Association.

However, being added to the protection list involved a complex process, and Lin Su had to head to Sector 32 the day after returning to Sector 11, so Qin Nan thought to wait until his return.

She had believed that since it was only a day's trip and Lin Su had just been seen at the beast breeding contest, there shouldn't be any immediate dangers.

To her surprise, the cult had targeted Lin Su faster than she had anticipated.

Recalling the details, Lin Su had been invited by his alma mater to give a lecture the day after the breeding contest, which was already somewhat unusual.

For the cult to have received the news so quickly and to have planned an assassination in such a short time was not consistent with what Qin Nan had known about them.

Could it be... there was an issue with Lin Su's alma mater?

No time for that now, first to rescue him!
