The King of Beast Trainers

Chapter 377: Chapter 215: Possession of the Raven, Despair Curse_2

However, that being said,

Lu Ran still hoped that he could enter the Breakthrough Secret Realm again soon to become a Level 3 Beast Trainer.

Once he became a Level 3 Beast Trainer, the level cap for Pet Beasts would reach 40.

Level 40 Overlord Clan beasts, when facing Sovereign Pet Beasts at Level 50, wouldn’t be without fighting power.

By then, unless it was one of those top-tier First Generations, very few would be able to check Lu Ran’s power.

Especially after he learned the affiliation skills and coordinated with the Green Sea Army, Lu Ran felt that his power would undergo a qualitative change.

At that time, it wasn’t just about moving freely within the Human kingdoms; even the Evil Beast Kingdoms would be no obstacle to him.

"Mm, but just to be safe, don’t leave the country during this period."

"If the International League wants to verify anything, let them come to Xia Country."

Gu Qingyi said, her confidence bolstered mainly by the Senior Chairman, who had assured her that they need not concern themselves with the International League.

Xia Country wanted to research the undead, and if it did, the International League had no jurisdiction over it.

Would other countries really dare to completely fall out with Xia Country, known for its strongest First Generation?

As long as Xia Country’s research indeed impacted the field of Beast Training and the world’s power dynamics, then regardless of what they researched, a multitude of countries would undoubtedly come crawling, eager for favor. At that time, the trend of public opinion from the International League would change again.

"It’s a pity, I’ve been kept so busy; otherwise, I’d really like to serve as your personal bodyguard, Lu Ran, my bro."

Zhu Kaixin expressed his regret and then added, "By the way, Lu Ran, my bro, for your next evolution... it should be that Sword-Carrying Dog that started it all, right?"

"Compared to the Dragon Clan...undead and curses... that Sword-Carrying Dog seems harder to evolve."

"But don’t worry, I’ve been keeping an eye out for suitable evolutionary resources for you. The moment I get news, I’ll bring it straight to you."

"Ah... thank you," Lu Ran didn’t refuse.

He was in urgent need of strength.

In fact, it wasn’t just Zhu Kaixin; Gu Qingyi and Manager Ying were also on the lookout for evolutionary resources for Mr. Husky.

If it had been hard to find such resources before, it certainly wasn’t now. Lu Ran had suddenly become an international focus again, the central figure in Blue Star’s initiation of the undead domain. Following this, countless powers would likely seek to ingratiate themselves with Lu Ran.

As a result, Mr. Husky’s evolutionary resources probably wouldn’t be a concern anymore. There would be many more options available.

Mr. Husky’s thinking was correct,

Previously, it had deliberately compressed its ice Attribute a few dozen times over to enhance its intelligence, devising an ultimate logic.

Having the King of Sudden Death evolve first brought the team new affiliation skills and a Domineering Attribute. Then the Dark Crow evolved right after, capitalizing on the undead’s momentum, garnering another wave of resources for Lu Ran.

So passing it down, this wave of resources should indeed be Mr. Husky’s to enjoy!!!

To evolve last wasn’t a loss at all.

The wise Husky King resisted the temptation to evolve first, patiently waiting to verify its own ideas.

......

The group didn’t stay long in Infinite City before they teleported back to Xia Country.

The undead incident in the Evolutionary Secret Realm needed to be dealt with by them, the First Generation.

At the moment, internationally, Neon was fiercely denouncing Lin Nian of Xia Country for his bloodthirsty behavior, which Lin Nian chose to simply ignore.

Even though that man had the identity of an international criminal investigator, at this moment, the International League didn’t entertain the idea of backing him up either. They too chose to ignore it and focused mainly on confirming whether what Lu Ran said was true.

In international disputes, might and interest are the only truths; everything else is just a tool to restrain the weak.

As for the international public opinion, the International League immediately stated that they would quickly arrange a research team to travel to Xia Country to verify the truth.

As for Lu Ran, the main character of this incident, he had already returned to the Green Sea, comfortably spending time alone with a few of his Pet Beasts, waiting for the international research team’s arrival.

Once the International League confirmed the findings, according to Doctor Gu’s assessment, Lu Ran should then be able to extort quite a few benefits from various countries in exchange for the undead research results.

"Mr. Husky, oh Mr. Husky, what are we going to do about this situation?"

Now that both the King of Sudden Death and Dark Crow had become so strong, Mr. Husky was surprisingly calm—and Lu Ran couldn’t help but tease it.

"Woof!"

Mr. Husky, with a fierce look in its eyes and the Sword Grass in its mouth, swiftly swung it, and a common mosquito was cleaved in two.

"Woof. (I’ve chopped some more boring stuff.)"

It ignored Boss Lu’s provocation, focusing solely on understanding the Sword Spirit, Sword Heart, and Sword Intent.

"Haha, Dark Crow," Lu Ran laughed heartily.

He called out to it.

"Caw caw caw!!!"

An undead crow emerged from the void, and Dark Crow said, "My king, I’ve been waiting for this moment for so long."

Lu Ran was taken aback, "Do you know why I’m calling you?"

At that moment, Raven of Curses had already been sent by Lu Ran to train the Crow Army.

Dark Crow itself had a bold idea—could it offer its Eye of the Evil God as a reward, to be dug out and fed to the meritorious common crows???

Would the trained Raven of Curses Army be better suited to its command?!

One has to admit, the intelligence of the crows had improved quite a bit.

At present, Raven of Death seemed to have guessed Lu Ran’s thoughts too, looking bashfully shy.

"My king, next, you surely want to Combine with me!!!"

"Once we Combine, you’ll be able to wield the power of the undead."

"Combined with the Flame Spirit, it will be even easier to fuse the Soul Flame!!!"

"You want to use the Soul Flame to forge a new Weapon for Mr. Husky!"

Dark Crow’s analysis surprised Lu Ran, who began to look at it in a new light.

"That could work."

"But why the heck are you blushing?" Lu Ran’s mouth twitched. You’re an undead creature—why can you blush? No, wait, the real question is, you’re just possessed by an undead, what are you blushing for?!

"Enough talk, let’s get on with it."

Lu Ran called out, and in the next moment, Dark Crow dove directly into Lu Ran’s body.

"Hmm."

Following that...

Black smoke began to billow from Lu Ran’s body. A wave of spiritual energy slowly diffused from him. In this process, his hair began to change, morphing from clean-cut, short strands to becoming thick, disheveled, and standing on end.

Lu Ran wasn’t surprised by this change; he wasn’t too worried about turning into something inhuman and ghastly.

In the previous Breakthrough Secret Realm, he had seen too many Beast Trainers possessed by the undead. In fact, being possessed was different from Fusion Skills—it didn’t change Beast Trainers all that much.

It was just like Spiritual Shaping.

At most, it changed one’s hairstyle or eye color. If the Pet Beast was a Dark Crow, one might grow a pair of crow wings, granting the Beast Trainer the ability to fly.

If he himself gained a pair of crow wings, then Lu Ran felt it would be pretty cool.

Whoosh————

Indeed, in the next moment, as the spiritual power materialized, a pair of thick, domineering, black-feathered wings unfurled from Lu Ran’s back. His black wings flapped, and Lu Ran laughed heartily, enjoying the novel sensation.

But the next moment, he couldn’t keep his composure anymore; his expression drastically changed because his mouth, God forbid, suddenly took on the shape of a crow’s beak by spiritual shaping, and on the crow’s beak, a pair of red ghostly eyes twinkled.

"Damn, why is your crow beak gene so dominant! Now this looks terrible." "Caw?"
