Chapter 498: Chapter 309 The World Falls Silent_1

Divine Eagle.

In a town devoid of life, eerily silent, yet filled with a sense of mechanical science fiction.

In a research institute, a video call appeared in front of a young man with short brown hair, a face full of acne scars, a mechanical prosthesis for an arm, and even one mechanical eye.

The screen displayed a blurred figure.

Whatever the person on the other end had said, the young man with acne scars showed a disdainful expression.

"Hmph, I’ve said it before, that Pari is useless,"

"Relying on a little background, he pushes this one around, that one around, turning the association into a one-man show. With no real strength of his own, now look where it’s got him,"

"That Jack is also a waste, idiotic enough to get involved with Pari."

"Regardless of what happens to them next, they’ve brought it upon themselves,"

"With everything that’s going on, they still have the mind to engage in internal strife." The young man with the mechanical limb curled his lip and said, "I accept your invitation, I also need the Federation’s power right now."

"Mr. Aub, we will definitely provide you with full assistance." The video call ended.

The Remodeler of the Divine Eagle Federation, Aub, looked towards the mechanical laboratory and shook his head.

He still couldn’t comprehend the thoughts of those politicians.

He had been to the Breakthrough Secret Realm of the Mechanical Era and had witnessed the "heyday of the Star-Moon Federation."

During that period, mechanical pets could be controlled by even a child, granting great strength.

An ordinary person, powerless as they might be, could deter legendary beings by simply pressing the button of a forbidden weapon.

It was considered the pinnacle of human civilization on the Star-Moon Continent.

Because of this, that Breakthrough Secret Realm had been incredibly difficult, and all the Blue Star Trialers had been wiped out, which is when he lost his arm and eye.

However, despite a devastating return, Aub was not disheartened. Although the breakthrough mission had failed, it didn’t mean he had gained nothing from the mechanical civilization. Utilizing those insights, he diligently researched mechanical pets and eventually evolved a mechanical pet from the Overlord Clan.

He became the first Mechanist on Blue Star to research mechanical pets.

He also became the only Beast Trainer in the Divine Eagle Federation to become one of the top ten Beast Trainers.

Through these experiences, Aub realized that the political landscape on Blue Star didn’t matter at all because even being first on Blue Star was nothing compared to the Star-Moon Federation.

Compared to the glory of mechanical civilization, the Beast Training systems on Blue Star were also trivial; only by being at the forefront of the era could one control everything.

Therefore, Pari’s actions against Lu Ran seemed utterly meaningless in his view.

The focus of Divine Eagle should currently be on the Star-Moon Federation, not Xia Country, not Lu Ran. Instead, they should unite all the forces on Blue Star that could possibly be united, to quickly gain equal footing with the Star-Moon Federation.

"Pari’s luck should be running out," the Remodeler Aub thought as he looked at the live broadcast, his gaze landing on Lu Ran on the screen.

Lu Ran was hailed as the father of undead pet beasts on Blue Star.

He was known as the father of mechanical pets on Blue Star.

The two indeed had similarities.

...

League City.

Because Jack was missing, presumed dead, and the ring was destroyed, the continuation of the challenge matches was not as swift.

There were intense discussions within the organizers, but ultimately, no results were conclusive.

During this process, the fifth Guardian from Egypt couldn’t help but report to the organizers, saying he was feeling a bit unwell and asked if someone could temporarily take his place...

But in the end, nothing changed.

The only thing that surprised this fifth guardian was that, during the process, Lu Ran had recalled his Husky and its two affiliations.

"Ha Pi, Lu Ran has recalled his Sword Dog. It used a 60-fold energy compression. It seemed effortless, but it must be at its limit,"

"The Dragon King too, after fighting twice using 50-fold energy compression, looked like it delivered an effortless strike, but it must also be under serious strain,"

"Go with confidence." The big shot from the challenge competition encouraged the first-generation Beast Trainer. A temporary substitute? Are you kidding?

Whether it’s to put an end to Lu Ran or to get beaten, you’re up.

The Egyptian Beast Trainer named Ha Pi nodded, knowing the reasoning... So, the only useful thing left for Lu Ran might be the Twin Ravens.

Just as some people analyzed, if the Twin Ravens specialized in legion combat tactics, their individual level would naturally be relatively weaker.

This was certain because having fused with the trait of a legion, it naturally meant one less trait to enhance individual combat power. There’s nothing to argue about.

In the end, the organizers announced that the challenge match would continue, and Ha Pi promptly took to the stage.

The arena had just been repaired by the Earth Series pets, so there was no issue with having no arena available.

Upon arrival, Ha Pi did not show the same arrogance as Jack but smiled and said, "Hey buddy, you’re very strong, please go easy on me."

"You’re the strong one, please be gentle." Lu Ran responded amiably to the friendly gesture.

"Cough cough cough." Beside them, the referee coughed violently. What do you mean, ’go easy’? This is being broadcast live.

This Ha Pi, he must be scared of Lu Ran, it’s certain.

However, at this point, no one would doubt Lu Ran’s strength anymore, regardless of the outcome of the coming battle.

"Challenger: Lu Ran from Xia Country,"

"Guardian: Ha Pi."

The referee announced the countdown for the final round.

At this moment, the hearts of the audience around the world were lifted.

Lu Ran had already proven his distinctness from other challengers with the previous four matches.

No one had ever broken through the fifth round before. Could Lu Ran have a chance?

"The opponent is named Ha Pi, shares the same surname as Husky. Could he also be very strong?"

"Anyway, as a first generation, he won’t be too weak,"

"Godly Lu has already crushed Jack; beating a first generation shouldn’t be a problem, considering many first generations couldn’t even beat Jack."

"Being in perfect condition doesn’t seem to be an issue, but the problem is, having fought four consecutive battles, Godly Lu must have expended a great deal of energy. 50-fold energy compression, 60-fold energy compression... You can imagine the toll such techniques take."

"Godly Lu can probably only send out the Twin Ravens now."

People were right in their judgments; Mr. Husky cutting through domains and slaying enemies was indeed stylish, but the burden brought by the 60-fold Sword Intent was also massive.

Lu Ran opted not to continue using Mr. Husky against the enemy; having eliminated one Jack was enough to consider its mission accomplished.

At this moment, facing the final First Generation Guardian, Lu Ran took a deep breath and summoned the Dark Crow, which had fought in the first battle.

"Caw caw caw caw caw————"

Compared to the King of Sudden Death and Mr. Husky.

The moment Dark Crow made its entrance, it seemed much more talkative.

"As expected, it comes down to the grand general himself to take the field————"

"Eh????"

"How come only I was summoned." Dark Crow’s body, cursed with the Raven of Death, had been summoned by Lu Ran.

At the same moment, Ha Pi also summoned his own pet beast.

He didn’t call forth his newly cultivated Overlord Beast, which probably wasn’t high leveled yet; instead, he directly summoned his pet beast with the highest growth level.

Growth Level: Sandstorm Master

Attribute: Wind, Earth, Rock

Species Level: High-Ranked King

Growth Level: Level 59

This was a colossal avian pet beast that resembled a vulture, with earthy brown rock feathers all over its body, making its entrance with a sandstorm swirling up around it.

Its appearance left Dark Crow flabbergasted; another avian duel, huh?

It’s worth mentioning that, perhaps out of fear of Dark Crow starting with a curse against the Beast Trainer himself, right at the vulture’s arrival, whether due to its attribute or Beast Training Technique, a spontaneously appearing sand cloud enveloped Ha Pi in an Absolute Defense.

"Big King, give the word, how should we proceed!!"

No matter what the opponent tried, Dark Crow’s blood was boiling. Lu Ran let it enter in the final challenge, so it had to put on a good performance.

This was the power of trust!

But, the opponent felt a bit strong...

Dark Crow fell into thought. Even if Lu Ran allowed the Raven of Death to possess it, Dark Crow felt it would still be a tough fight and it would need to sacrifice something to win.

So, what exactly was Godly Lu implying by only sending it out... could it be...

"Just look for opportunities to deal the final blow."

"This opponent, leave it to me to handle."

It was the last battle, and Lu Ran intended to end it quickly and then heal the injuries of King of Sudden Death and Mr. Husky.

Dark Crow was merely a scout; it was far from as good as King of Sudden Death and Mr. Husky in arena battles. Asking it to single-handedly solve a First Generation did put pressure on it, unless it sacrificed its eyeball to the curse.

But now, with too many injured on the team, Lu Ran worried the Deer Horn of God wouldn’t heal them in time. So be it.

"What????"

Lu Ran’s words left Dark Crow stunned again and also silenced the entire audience.

Handle it on his own?

At this moment, everyone suddenly remembered what Lu Ran had said at the beginning of the first match.

He told Dark Crow to finish the opponent quickly, otherwise, he himself would step in and crush the opponent...

Damn.

Was Lu Ran serious?

What was he planning to do!

"Huh?" The opponent Ha Pi was also shocked.

The countdown clock hit zero, and Lu Ran’s hand slowly lifted, lightly snapping his fingers in mid-air.

With that snap, like striking a match, Ha Pi’s face changed as he felt a spatial fluctuation.

Although he had not mastered this skill, he had battled against Beast Trainers who had.

"Domain————" he cried out incredulously.

At that time, a fire blazed in Lu Ran’s pupils, the void spewed flames, and a giant red sphere domain instantly enveloped Ha Pi and the vulture, forming right in the arena.

As a spatial barrier, it entirely enclosed them.

At this moment, Beast Trainers from all over the world who were tuned into this final battle, their eyes widened in disbelief.

What had they just seen...

In addition to that monstrous Husky within Lu Ran’s team, was there a second pet beast that could control a domain?

No... It seemed it wasn’t the beast that controlled the domain, but Lu Ran himself.

He... with a mere snap of his fingers, had created a flame-based domain.

This most formidable Fourth Generation, not only did he possess Ideological Shaping and Sword Path Intent, but also... he had mastered domain creation too???

"Are all Beast Trainers from Xia Country monsters." Someone’s heart pounded furiously.

It was outrageous that all thirteen top-ranked First Generations from Xia Country mastered their own domains, but now even a Fourth Generation was equipped with dual-domain configurations.

In comparison, Ha Pi, though a First Generation, yet had not managed to master a Domain, leading him to be helplessly pulled into Lu Ran’s domain without any means to resist.

Of course, what people found even more preposterous was that after Lu Ran created the domain, both he and his pet beasts remained outside, while only the opponent was dragged into the domain!

What exactly was happening inside! At this moment, the world stood silent.
