  Chapter 173 Important Decision
  "What... happened?"

  Jiang Xue and Chen Yuan were as surprised as Jiang Xue and Chen Yuan when they saw that the shadow priest who had been extremely violent just now and attacked with all his pets suddenly fainted. The shadow priest himself.

  After being attacked, they were prepared to fight hard and even suffer some damage.

  Although those peripheral members of the Shadow Religion do not have powerful beasts like the Shadow of Death, most of the beasts they carry are mad beasts that have been cultivated in hell mode and have basically lost their sanity in exchange for combat power.

  Tu Tiezhu and a few other soldiers had slightly higher physical strength, but they were at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, and no normal person could care less about the life and death of their pets like the Fire Thieves, so it would be difficult to fight.

  However, when the shadow priest fell to the ground, and the shadow of death was forced to take back his beast control space, the situation was completely reversed.

  The Fire Stealing Group had a loose structure. Apart from the core fanatic believers, there were many outsiders who were helpless. After the shadow priests who led the group were defeated, they became panicked and began to flee soon after.

  And Tu Tiezhu kept in mind Russell's words in advance that he could not let anyone go, so he had his soldiers disperse around early, blocking the path of the members of the Fire Stealing Group.

  Without worries about the rear, Tu Tiezhu opened up his firepower. His fifth-level gale war eagle shuttled through the forest as fast as it could. Every time he used the steel wing skill, he could knock down a third- or fourth-level pet beast.

  The pet beast was injured and the peripheral members of the Fire Stealing Group staggered, and their escape speed suddenly slowed down.

  However, their crazy pet beast could not restrain its desire to attack, and even though it was of a lower level and had no strength to fight, it still pestered Tu Tiezhu and the others to the death.

  Faced with this desperate attack, the soldiers really couldn't attack the members of the Fire Stealing Group for a while.

  However, the Beast Control Alliance has been fighting against the Fire Pirates for so many years, so it is obvious that they are well prepared for this situation.

  Looking at the members of the Fire Thieves escaping hastily not far away, Tu Tiezhu directly took out a stun gun from his waist.

  That is the standard equipment equipped by the garrison. Although its power is difficult to damage pet beasts, it can be used to intercept enemy beast masters during pursuit.

  After several precise long-range shots, the already staggering members of the Fire Thieves fell to the ground.

  Seeing how they were rolling their eyes and twitching, Russell felt that the power of those stun guns was not very low...

  About five minutes later, Tu Tiezhu completely finished the battle and searched the surviving members of the Fire Thief Group with thick ropes. Tied up.

  Russell, on the other hand, called Jiang Xue to perform some simple treatment on the shadow priest.

  It's not that he has too much humanitarianism, it's mainly that a shadow priest who can master the skill of sacrifice will not have a low status in the fire-stealing group. If he is left alive, he will definitely be able to extract a lot of information.

  He has been using the sacrifice skill for a long time, and his vitality has been seriously overdrawn. Now he is poisoned by the netherworld poison. If he doesn't give him one or two life potions, he may never wake up again.

  "Ayou, it's okay. You've been poisoned so quickly."

  After working for a while, seeing that the shadow priest's vital signs finally stabilized, Russell wiped his sweat and asked Ayou, the hero of this battle. Praise.

  This time, Ayou's Nether Realm can be said to have taken the lead in defeating the Shadow Priest without any bloodshed.

  Relying on the high amount of energy provided by spiritual attribute cultivation, Ayou bombarded those pet beasts that stole the fire group.

  Although many attacks in the dense forest were blocked by trees and the results were average, the ghost energy remaining in the air quickly reached a certain concentration.

  Under the influence of the Nether Realm, these ghost energy began to gradually gather, forming free toxins, which quietly floated towards the shadow priest under Ayou's control.

  Because they often sacrifice their life force, shadow priests are not very sensitive to the loss of life force, and are even slower to detect the poison of the netherworld than ordinary people.

  By the time he realized that the life force in his body was almost exhausted, it was too late to stop.

  When the beast master's vitality is exhausted, which is equivalent to being seriously injured and comatose, the beast master's space will naturally close immediately, and the menacing shadow of death can only be forcibly withdrawn from the beast master's space.

  Just as Russell was about to tie up the unconscious shadow priest, Xiao Qi in his pocket suddenly started chirping again.

  Jiji...

  "A high-level pet beast is coming..."

  As soon as Xiao Qi finished speaking, Russell immediately felt a huge energy wave coming from not far away.

  At the same time, the small trees along the road seemed to have been crushed by something, and they fell to both sides.

  "Alert!"

  Seeing this, Tu Tiezhu's face darkened, but he still took the lead and stood in the front.

  Fortunately, when the branches blocking the road were pulled apart, what appeared in everyone's eyes was not the enemy, but Turandot riding a three-headed dragon and snake.

  Tu Tiezhu immediately sent a message for help, but he didn't expect Russell to be so fierce and finish off his opponent before reinforcements arrived.

  Turandot seemed to have experienced a fierce battle just now. There were several wounds on the tough scales of the three dragon snakes.

  But seeing the two members of the Fire Thief Group tied into rice dumplings on the snake, she must have won a great victory.

  However, with the skill characteristics of the three-headed dragon and snake, which can either kill or injure the opponent when it attacks, except for these two captured mid-level beast masters, the rest of the minions are probably dead.

  "There are very dangerous poisons here. You should evacuate as soon as possible!"

  As a master of poison, Turandot immediately noticed the ghost poison remaining in the air when he came to this area.

  She is usually busy with tasks, and has not contacted Russell since the last time she returned to the city. Naturally, she does not know that his pet beast has advanced again and has mastered the poison of the netherworld.

  Realizing that this deadly poison was permeating the area, Turandot thought Russell and the others had been ambushed, and immediately waved them to retreat.

  "It's okay, it's okay, I put the poison."

  Seeing the nervous look on Turandot's face, Russell quickly explained.

  "...You have a new contract with a poisonous beast?"

  Hearing this, Turandot was greatly surprised.

  She clearly remembered that Russell's contracted beasts were two insect-type pets, one near and one far away.

  For a fourth-level beast master, the strength of his pet beast is indeed good, but his skill configuration does not seem to be related to the poison system.

  Could it be that, after just a few months of not seeing each other, this kid had some adventure and contracted a rare poisonous pet beast born in the land of underworld?
  "Well, it's the UFO Hawkmoth you saw before."

  Unexpectedly, Russell said that the one who mastered this skill was actually a UFO Hawkmoth that had never produced a poisonous beast in its family tree.

  Hearing this, Turandot's expression changed again and again, almost showing envy for a junior who was three levels below him.

  Among all the rankings of pet poisons, the Nether Poison, which has vitality in direct effect and is difficult to prevent, can at least be ranked in the top ten.

  Even her three-headed dragon and snake, due to innate racial differences, have not been able to master this toxin that is closely linked to the breath of death.

  You know, as the level of the pet increases, there will be more and more various methods of purification and defense. Directly inflicting damage to defenseless parts such as internal organs and blood through poisoning is the biggest advantage of poisonous beasts.

  But poisons are particularly afraid of antidote and dispersion, which is also the biggest disadvantage of poison beasts.

  It can be seen from the previous experience that the three dragon snakes were restricted by the Bone Array and Purifying Rain, and their physical attacks were exempted from the shadow of death. They were unable to break through the blockade of several intermediate beasts for a long time... Poison beasts are the most feared

  . The problem is not that the poison is not enough, but that the signs of poisoning are too obvious, making the opponent defensive.

  The Nether Poison, while not weak in toxicity, is also extremely rare and specially made to be light-colored and odorless, making it extremely difficult to detect in a slightly darker environment.

  It can be said that no poison beast master does not want his pet beast to master this ability.

  As a full-time poison beast master, Turandot pursued the netherworld poison that the three dragons and snakes had not learned for a long time, but it appeared in a UFO hawk moth that was recognized as very weak. It was not a bit sour. The emotion is fake.

  "Is this the wave behind the Yangtze River pushing the wave ahead? I am only in my third year, how come I am so quickly outclassed by new talents..." With a hint of sigh, she tried hard to maintain her usual

  image of a cold master, leading Following Russell and the others, they converged towards the location of the Fire Pirates' camp.

  ......

  From high in the sky, it seems that the distance is only a slap in the face, but the walk is not too short.

  After trekking for nearly an hour through the dense forest where the sounds of fighting were still heard, the swamp and camp that he had seen once before finally appeared in Russell's field of vision again.

  At this time, the cabins and tents in the camp had long been beaten to pieces. From the large pits one or two meters deep can be seen everywhere on the ground, as well as various traces of blackened explosions, it is not difficult to see what kind of fierce battles this place has experienced.

  However, the Fire Stealing Group dispersed most of their main force into the forest in advance, and the remaining high-level beast masters could not stop the offensive of General Mo Lin and others. There were no casualties on the Beast Master Alliance side.

  In the temporary headquarters built in the center of the camp, General Mo Lin, Yan Songbai, Dr. Xia Mu and others were staring at the electronic screen, holding the phone and issuing instructions continuously, asking the alliance masters to continue to collect members of the Fire Stealing Group. .

  Looking at the raging battle, Russell and the others did not dare to disturb them and could only wait aside for the time being.

  After a while, the tents provided for the exploration team had been set up, and General Mo Lin finally put down the phone and walked to Russell.

  "I heard that Tu Tiezhu said that you single-handedly eliminated a shadow priest who mastered the sacrifice skill?"

  After hearing the accompanying sergeant report on the attack on the exploration team, General Mo Lin looked at him with a little more appreciation.

  "My pet beast has mastered the Nether Toxin, which makes it easy to use in chaotic battles. Moreover, he is addicted to turning on the sacrifice skill, ignoring the abnormal flow rate of vitality. In fact, there is also an element of luck." In front of such an elder and master,

  Tai Being too modest is another kind of arrogance, and Russell generously acknowledged his contribution.

  "Okay... I was worried just now. The strength of your pet beast is so outstanding. It really solved my worries!" Unexpectedly

  , General Mo Lin paid special attention to the battle of several of their fourth and fifth level beast masters. He praised him repeatedly, as if being able to poison the shadow priest quietly was a great thing.

  Russell felt a little ashamed when speaking such high praise from an old general who had participated in many pioneering wars.

  However, General Mo Lin's words immediately answered some of his doubts.

  "According to the new information just obtained, the people of the Fire Stealing Group seem to have made some important progress in the secret realm..." It

  turns out that the reason why the Fire Thieving Group adopted this weird combat method is because they used all means to defeat the enemy. Found the right explorer.

  Because they had the upper hand, the explorers sent by the Stealing Fire Group entered the secret realm for several days. I heard that they basically found out that this secret realm was indeed artificially created, and they had even occupied part of the secret realm.

  Since the trial secret realm strictly limits the conditions for those who can enter it, even if the camp is lost, it will be difficult for the Beast Control Alliance to actually seize control of the secret realm in a short time.

  The Fire Pirates abandoned the camp and instead sneaked into the forest to guerrilla. On the one hand, they knew that they would not be able to defend themselves in a head-on confrontation. On the other hand, they really wanted to intercept the exploration team from the Beast Control Alliance.

  If you can stop him for a while, it's best if you can wait for an opportunity to kill him.

  The man-made trial secret realm has a stable structure and is easier to transform than the secret realm derived from space fluctuations. The authority gained after controlling the secret realm is also quite large.

  As long as they interfere with the alliance's operations and delay as much time as possible, when the members of the Fire Thieves completely crack the secret realm, they may be able to close the entrance here and open a new door.

  By that time, the camp here controlled by the Beast Control Alliance at a huge cost will be worthless and just a quagmire.

  Fortunately, General Mo Lin was personally responsible for arranging the formation of the three Russells, and even Tu Tiezhu and other escorts only received the news before leaving.

  Although the Fire Stealing Group has vicious intentions, they suffer from the lack of clear intelligence and can only blindly disperse their forces to carry out the attack. The configuration of most teams is not too high.

  In addition, there are still some high-end combat forces left on the frontal battlefield to delay General Mo Lin and the alliance's high-level beast masters, so Russell and the others will encounter an interception team led by a fourth-level shadow priest.

  However, even though he had this information, General Mo Lin did feel that he had been severely punished by the stolen fire ball.

  He does have invincible ninth-level strength, and he can even win over others through connections and find one or two ninth-level beast masters to help. However, cracking the secret realm is different from frontal combat, and brute force alone will not work. .

  If the power of many top beast masters is gathered to attack the gate forcefully, it may cause the interior of the secret realm to collapse, and then it will still be all in vain.

  Before learning that Russell's strength was stronger than he thought, General Mo Lin had already planned to report to the Southern Principality Alliance headquarters and spend huge sums of money to build a space blockade device nearby.

  As long as the secret realm gate can be prevented from disappearing and never being found again, with an organization dozens of times larger than the Fire Stealing Group, the Beast Control Alliance still has a chance to compete for the ownership of the secret realm.

  However, Russell's outstanding ability to easily deal with a shadow priest gave him new confidence.

  As a veteran, he had fought against the shadow priest more than once or twice.

  Needless to say, the two pet beasts, Death Shadow and Bone Puppet, are difficult to deal with. Various sacrificial skills are also one of the trump cards of the Shadow Order, and their increase in combat effectiveness is even stronger than most beast control talents.

  After activating the sacrifice skill, the shadow priest's combat power is indeed one of the best among the beast masters of the same level.

  Russell was only at the early stage of the fourth level, but he was actually able to defeat the shadow priests in the mid-to-late fourth level. Even if a small amount of luck was excluded, his combat effectiveness was not much lower.

  The most important thing is that all his pet beasts are insect beasts, and their strength is completely intact when entering the secret realm. They are much stronger than those explorers who can only send out one mature pet beast.

  If Russell can directly defeat the explorers sent by the Stealing Fire Group in the secret realm, even if he cannot successfully crack the secret realm, it will be great news for the Beast Control Alliance.

  However, General Mo Lin is not the kind of person who will do anything for his own benefit. The reason why he chose to tell all this information was to give the three Russells a chance to make their own choices.

  After smoking the cigarette butt in his hand, he solemnly said to Russell:

  "The situation is like this. If you enter now, you will definitely face a considerable disadvantage and may lose your life. Therefore, the alliance can promise that regardless of whether the secret realm is successfully explored, as long as you can Defeating members of the Fire Stealing Group, or simply providing some key information about them, will result in extremely high rewards." "

  Especially Russell, as the absolute main force, as long as the secret realm can be controlled by the Beast Control Alliance, we can share part of the secret realm. Development rights."

  "Now, make a decision as soon as possible, will you continue to participate in this secret exploration operation?"
