King of Beasts

Chapter 65: He is Passerby A



Chapter 65: He is Passerby A

“There’s nothing to it, I just had a private chat with Pluto, and it agreed to let me give it a try,” Lu Ran smiled.

“The battle… will raise quite a dust, so wear a mask.”

The boss of the Abandoned Testing Ground secret realm is a middle commander and even has a weapon, undoubtedly stronger, but this Dragon Tail Scorpion seems like a good preliminary test.

“Ah?” Lu Bing’s eyes flashed.

What is Lu Ran babbling about…

Lu Bing understood every word Lu Ran had said just now.

However, when put together, they somehow gave her a strange feeling.

At this moment, Lu Ran didn’t explain anything and just walked straight out of the crowd under the bewildered gaze of the Lu Village team.

“Hey…” Lu Bing called out, but didn’t manage to stop Lu Ran.

The star cluster guild has decent strength and a good reputation, and since Pluto said he was the first to find the boss, everyone was willing to give him a chance. Let’s wait and see.

However, as Lu Ran entered the battle area, the beastmasters observing were slightly taken aback.

Who is he?

Everyone looked over and realized that they didn’t recognize Lu Ran.

“Is he a mercenary from the star cluster guild?” someone suggested.

“It couldn’t possibly be someone here to steal the boss, it must be a mercenary.”

After all, which newcomer would be foolish enough to compete with the star cluster guild for a boss, a mere commander species boss at that. If he really had that kind of strength, he could just as well challenge an abyss level secret realm.

“You, come here,” Pluto said to him gruffly at that moment.

“Heh, watch closely,” Lu Ran replied with unfazed calm.

Following the brief exchange between Pluto and Lu Ran, everyone settled down.

So he wasn’t here to steal the boss, and the two knew each other!

But it didn’t seem quite like he was a mercenary.

If he were a mercenary, wouldn’t there be more than just one person?

Especially since Pluto’s Thunder Eagle was only doing limited damage to the Dragon Tail Scorpion.

To defeat this Dragon Tail Scorpion, which was out of their league, it would normally take a dozen people taking turns attacking.

“What’s going on, he really does know Pluto,” the Lu Village team murmured among themselves, feeling more and more confused as the situation unfolded.

So Lu Ran really had a private chat with Pluto earlier?

Was he really asked by Pluto to step in?

“I’m not sure, but why do I feel that this little brother Lu Ran is not someone simple…”

“Did we underestimate him just now? Could he possibly be some big shot…”

Lu Bing’s words left everyone stunned.

They all started considering the possibility, their expressions changing continuously.

Could it be that the grandson of Village Chief Lu Hai is really some big shot?

If that’s true, then it’s really something.

No, it must be! Otherwise, why would Pluto call out to him!

At this moment, Lu Ran had already taken out his black card and started the pet beast summoning process.

The black card emitted a glow, and a huge circular summoning circle appeared in front of Lu Ran, accompanied by a fierce wind.

Following the burst of light, there came a thunderous wolf howl.

“Owoooo”

With this howl, everyone saw an Erha appear on the summoning circle amidst the light.

Even though this Erha was sturdy and looked stern, it was undeniably still an Erha.

This scene left many people in shock for a moment.

That’s not it!

After all this time calling for backup, Pluto summoned a beastmaster who just brought out an Erha?

“Wait!”

Among the crowd, there were some who understood, and suddenly, someone seemed to realize something.

Their minds raced.

“Husky, snowfield dog, someone whom Pluto would address with ‘you come,’ could it be—” Someone guessed something, appearing incredulous as they figured out Lu Ran’s identity.

Could it be him?

As General Ha finished its howl, the air around it erupted violently. An icy blue whirlwind swirled around it, and it held a sword made entirely of wind in its mouth, looking indifferently at the Dragon Tail Scorpion.

Dog carrying sword!

Those around who saw this iconic image of the dog carrying sword, well-known yet never before seen in Infinite City No.3, instantly widened their eyes.

At this moment, they could finally confirm Lu Ran’s identity.

A name flashed through everyone’s minds.

“He’s Passerby A!” someone immediately shouted.

This name undoubtedly held great power.

Number one on the divine beast leaderboard of Infinite City No.3, the one who even overshadowed Pluto, that Passerby A!

“Turns out it’s him.”

“Is it really Passerby A?”

“Is this his first public appearance?”

“Is it the real deal?”

“Why is he here, and why is he helping Star Cluster?”

“No, he’s probably not just support. Look at Pluto’s expression—there must be some major scoop.”

People were buzzing with speculation.

Meanwhile, the four from Lu Village, upon seeing the dog carrying sword, were also shocked.

Damn, is he really a big shot?

And not just any big shot, but one beyond imagination.

It should have been obvious—it’s Passerby A!

“Lu Ran… Passerby A, oh my god,” Lu Dingding exclaimed in shock.

“An unforeseen path…” Little Wu said blankly.

Don’t joke with us.

Just moments ago, they were talking about leveling up Lu Ran. If Lu Ran is Passerby A, wouldn’t that be absurd?

Who in Infinite City No.3 doesn’t know that Passerby A is a mysteriously powerful figure?

“We were so wrong,” Lu Yi said speechlessly.

Lu Bing also stood by, silent. Who could have imagined that a random fellow villager they met would be such a formidable figure?

At any rate, people were finally understanding the situation. A boss that even Pluto couldn’t handle, Passerby A seemed ready to give it a try!

Can he do it?

Beastmasters from various factions held their breath.

At this moment, General Ha’s formidable aura was also emanating.

The lower commander species, the Dragon Tail Scorpion, instantly turned towards General Ha as if facing a formidable enemy, sensing this creature was more threatening than others.

“Yaaa!!!” It roared in intimidation.

But General Ha disregarded it with contempt. The stream of wind that enveloped its entire body began to rapidly converge towards the Sword of Wind held in its mouth.

Before long, a tremendous amount of energy was being compressed at General Ha’s mouth.

Humming vibrated through the air.

In an instant, the Sword of Wind trembled like a storm and rapidly transformed into an ice-blue color, becoming a Blizzard Sword!

The moment the sword formed, although General Ha wasn’t of the ice species, the aura it emitted instantly froze the ground around it with a layer of frost.

A cold wind blew over.

“Yaaa!!!” In that moment, the Red Rock Dragon Tail Scorpion sensed an ever-increasing dangerous aura and finally launched an attack. Its tail whipped around, sending huge dark purple rock spikes flying directly towards General Ha.

“Dodge and then Storm Slash,” Lu Ran commanded.

Their calm demeanor made the bystanders uncertain about the situation.

But in the next moment, the spectators all widened their eyes.

Whoosh—

General Ha leaped into the air, dodging the rock spikes that then hit the ground, turning it gray. Meanwhile, in mid-air, General Ha burst forth with an even more terrifying aura.

Sharp as a sword.

In just an instant, the Red Rock Dragon Tail Scorpion felt as if it had been dragged into a blizzard, unbearably cold; its body stiffened, swaying in terror, and it struggled to create a semi-circular rock wall in an attempt to protect itself.

“The Red Rock Dragon Tail Scorpion is scared!” someone exclaimed in disbelief.

What was it afraid of?

People were about to find out.

In the sky, swish—

With a shake of its head, General Ha unleashed a dazzling ice-blue sword qi about ten meters long. The appearance of this sword qi made the beastmasters present feel the temperature drop several degrees, bringing an intense chill. What was even more terrifying was the power of this sword qi… Forming in an instant, it fell like a meteor, directly targeting the Red Rock Dragon Tail Scorpion. The astonishing sword light almost instantly devoured the rock wall created by the scorpion, grinding it into a cloud of stone debris. Under the horrified heart of the Red Rock Dragon Tail Scorpion, the terrifying sword qi descended upon it!

A loud boom changed Pluto’s expression.

At this moment, the Red Rock Dragon Tail Scorpion felt as if countless ice and wind blades were slashing it mercilessly. In just a few seconds, its hard body couldn’t withstand the power of the sword qi, beginning to crack and split, and within those cracks, layers of frost formed.

Boom, boom, boom.

The sword qi continued to crush. By the time people reacted, the husky had already landed, tightly closing its mouth, with the Sword of Wind also having dissipated. After this single move, it turned and left.

In its place, a ten-meter-long fissure appeared on the ground, and as for the Red Rock Dragon Tail Scorpion, it was nowhere to be seen, seemingly chopped into the depths of the earth!

This scene left the spectators in prolonged silence.

Nearby, Pluto and its Thunder Eagle were so shocked that they seemed to have something stuck in their throats, rendering them speechless.

“Are you kidding me?! It’s over just like that?!” Pluto internally screamed.

From start to finish, it was incredibly fast. Lu Ran and his pet beast had only used one move, and the boss was instantly gone!

It left people unable to react.

How could this be? How is it possible?

For those witnessing the dog carrying a sword for the first time, it started to make them question their own lives.

What just happened with that move?!

Some experienced beastmasters, who had a good eye, recognized the technique used in that move, which only added to their shock.

If they were not mistaken, that move was a perfect combination of the four advanced skills: energy flow, energy shaping, energy compression, and energy release.

How could a newcomer possibly master such skills?

Meanwhile, Lu Ran, indifferent to what others thought, listened to the system’s announcements.

“Congratulations on defeating the Red Rock Dragon Tail Scorpion.”

“Congratulations on acquiring a rare resource, a flawed Dragon Blood Crystal.”

“Congratulations on acquiring advanced resources, Dragon Scorpion Tail Needle.”

“It’s over,” Lu Ran said without showing any joy. He turned to the stunned Pluto and reminded, “Pluto, don’t forget about our bet.”

With that, he pulled out a black card, collected General Ha—who was trying hard not to bleed from the mouth or lose teeth—and planned to rush back for its treatment.

Now, General Ha had two types of Storm Slash. One was the ordinary Storm Slash, which involved compressing the sword qi five times—a level its high-quality teeth could withstand.

The move General Ha had just released was the Extreme Storm Slash, which compressed the sword qi ten times, resulting in a significant qualitative change. None of its high-quality teeth were spared from damage.

This was the result of a week’s practice by General Ha, coupled with continuous healing from the divine deer pendant, pushing energy compression to its limit.

Though it was a harsh ordeal, the spoils were excellent.

“Let’s go.”

With those words, Lu Ran turned and left, leaving behind only a mysterious and unfathomable figure.

It was only after Lu Ran had completely teleported out of the secret realm that the onlookers finally came to their senses.

“Holy crap!!!”

Everyone’s eyes were glued to the vast crevice cleaved by the sword qi.

“That’s Passerby A himself, no mistake!

“Passerby A is awesome!”

“Damn, he’s really strong. What does he look like again? I’d like to cozy up to him if we meet in Infinite City No.3.”

“No, no idea, he seemed to be wearing a mask. Damn it!”

At this moment, the folks from Lu Village were also slightly agape, exchanging looks, fully coming to terms with the reality.

“Lu Ran really is Passerby A…”

“Besides the top spot on the divine beast leaderboard, who else could cause such destruction?… Truly worthy of being the village chief’s grandson…”

They were somewhat shocked inside.

Just moments ago, they were still saying that Pluto might be the strongest newcomer in Infinite City No.3.

Now, having seen Lu Ran in action, they realized that Pluto and the Thunder Eagle were nothing in comparison.

Pluto and the Thunder Eagle had exerted tremendous effort and only managed to paralyze the Dragon Tail Scorpion slightly.

But when Lu Ran made his move, it was just as he had said—things were bound to get messy…

“Captain, what’s the situation?” At this moment, the members of Pluto’s beast taming squad stared blankly at him, asking what was going on.

After all, from the earlier conversation, it was Pluto who had asked Lu Ran to make a move.

This couldn’t be considered Passerby A stealing the boss, right?

“Damn! What’s the situation! Let’s go, we’re heading back!” At this moment, Pluto was still far from calm. He angrily threw the recovery potion he was holding to the ground, furious.

Thinking about the bet with Lu Ran made his stomach churn. That sword strike had terrified him, instantly dispelling any thoughts of competing with Lu Ran. He even began to doubt whether Lu Ran was really a newcomer.

Now that the boss had been taken by Lu Ran, he would also have to give up an awakening fruit later. What a disaster!

Who in the world is this guy…
