Chapter 117 The Indifferent Royal Sister Turandot
While Russell was counting leaves in boredom and waiting, in another woodland hundreds of kilometers away from him, a giant black snake with three heads was crawling quickly along the mountain road.
On the huge head in the middle of the giant snake, which was as big as a round table, sat a young female beast master wearing black clothes and a neat ponytail. She had a pretty face but a cold expression.
She is the new legendary beast master that Dr. Natsuki just mentioned. She is also the new action team leader of the Beast Management Bureau, the seventh-level beast master Turandot.
According to the regulations of the Beast Mastering Alliance, only beast masters whose strength has reached a high level, that is, level seven or above, can apply to participate in the special assessment and obtain the legendary title.
In order to reflect the rarity and power of legendary beast masters, the assessment content officially set by the alliance is often not simple.
Beast masters who have just reached the seventh level and have not yet had time to stabilize their realm, or whose pet beasts' potential has reached its limit and barely reached the high-level threshold, usually fail to pass the assessment smoothly.
Looking at the entire world of beast masters, the number of beast masters above the seventh level is not very small, but only a small part of them can obtain the legendary title, and most of them are middle-aged and have trained their second or even third beasts. Only after petting a beast can one pass the harsh title test.
To be able to become a legend in his twenties, in addition to the initial pet beast race and talent being very good, one's own beast-controlling talent must not be a hindrance either.
And this woman, who looks like she has the four characters "Keep away from strangers" written all over her face, is a genius who possesses both.
As a second-generation royal from Longquan City, her first pet beast was a three-headed dragon snake with purple-gold bloodline.
This kind of snake pet with both dragon and poison attributes has a high concentration of dragon blood in its body. Not only is it physically strong, but it is also very good at using toxins, and it also knows a small amount of dragon language magic. It is very powerful in both long-range and close combat. A balanced pet.
Its talent skill "Plague Explosion" is derived from the bloodline of the plague dragon. It can not only improve the effect of its own poison skills, but also control the body of the poisoned beast to explode, continuously passing on the corrosion damage and poisoning state. , amazingly powerful in group fights.
During the battle, the three-headed dragon snake can use the heads on both sides to use basic skills such as venom spray and fangs, and at the same time let the largest head in the middle chant dragon language magic, so as to achieve both attack and charge.
The dragon clan has extremely high attainments in energy control, which is not inferior to those of high-level elemental creatures. The lowest level dragon language magic is equivalent to high-level pet beast skills.
According to records, adult three-headed dragon snakes can comprehend several dragon-language magics such as Plague Swamp, Black Blood Curse, and Death Dissolution on their own from their blood inheritance.
In addition to being extremely powerful, poisonous dragon magic basically has the property of worsening wounds and being difficult to heal. It is a nightmare for most melee-type and healing-type pets.
If there is any disadvantage to a pet beast like the three-headed dragon snake, it is that it is too poisonous.
Even if a three-headed dragon snake does not have any desire to attack, but simply crawls, breathes, and spits messages, the omnipresent potent toxins under the influence of the powerful bloodline of the plague dragon will unconsciously leak out in small amounts.
In the history of the alliance, there has been a tragic incident where a small wound on the hand was licked to death by one of the three dragons and snakes in the alliance.
Even if these accidents do not occur, during meditation, communication, especially when practicing dragon language magic, the extremely aggressive mental power of the three-headed dragon snake will exert a subtle influence, causing the beast master to suffer from mental poisoning.
If the three-headed dragon and snake had not been quite docile among the purple-gold-level pet beasts, and were very loyal since they were raised since childhood, I am afraid that such a pet beast that could easily kill people would have been included in the ranks of ferocious beasts.
This woman's own talent for beast control is called "Venomous Physique". This talent gives her a super high immunity to toxins. She can get along with three dragons and snakes safely. She can also improve her mental strength and energy through regular injections of venom. physical strength, and cause a certain degree of toxicity in one's own blood.
This ability has little presence in the arena, but it is a great weapon in outdoor exploration and fierce fighting.
Just imagine, when an enemy finally breaks through the obstacles, passes through the defense of one pet beast after another, and attacks the enemy beast master after all the hard work, but before he can be happy, he discovers the black blood flowing from the opponent. It was so fishy and sweet that I fainted from the poison before I knew what was going on. The scene must be beautiful... In addition, he is the only mythical tenth-level beast master in history who has contracted a genuine plague dragon. , whose beast-control talent is called "Insulating Physique", which can completely exempt all kinds of negative conditions, and can be understood as a high-end version of "Serum Physique".
Therefore, the Beast Mastering Alliance has high expectations for this new legendary beast master, waiting for her to be promoted to the ninth level one day and add another general to the Southern Principality.
The pet snake beast has a flexible body and can move in rugged mountains and forests as easily as on flat ground. The three-headed dragon snake has extremely long-lasting physical strength and does not need to rest when running all the way. After an hour, it carried its beast master to Russell satellite positioning.
This speed was due to the fact that the woman had to stop from time to time to observe the terrain and take notes. If she crawled with all her strength, the time it took the three-headed dragon snake to travel could be shortened by less than half.
After many times of energy feedback, the five senses of the high-level beast master were much sharper than ordinary people. From a distance of dozens of meters, the female beast master saw Russell from a distance.
Of course, the three-headed dragon snake was huge, so Russell naturally saw it for the first time.
"What the hell...what the hell! Did you meet a boss when you went out??"
Russell was startled when he suddenly saw a big snake with black scales, three heads, and blue pupils appearing not far away.
If there wasn't a human standing on top of this big black snake and the emblem of the Beast Control Alliance on its clothes, he would have run away long ago.
Are all high-level beastmasters so willful? They were on their way to this battle without informing them in advance. If they were heartbroken, they might have fainted on the spot... Although I complained silently in my heart, when I thought that the other party
was Long Quan, The big boss from the Municipal Alliance Headquarters, Russell still greeted the visitor politely.
"Hello, I'm Russell. Are you the operations captain of the Beast Management Bureau that Dr. Xia Mu mentioned?"
Hearing this, the woman with the snake's head jumped up and landed firmly in front of Russell.
With the strength of a seventh-level beast master, and the strengthening effect of her beast control talent on herself, even if she does not activate additional skills, her own combat effectiveness is not inferior to that of some middle and low-level pet beasts. Jumping a distance of four to five meters is just a trivial matter. .
"My name is Turandot, and I am responsible for investigating the Black Dew Secret Realm first. I heard that your talent for beast control is the insect whisperer. Some things require your cooperation." Probably because of dancing with snakes since childhood, Turandot
exuded Her temperament was a bit like a cold-blooded animal. Russell couldn't see any expression on her delicate face, and there was no emotion in her steady tone.
"The alliance headquarters has roughly analyzed the areas with the largest amount of black dew. I am only conducting a preliminary investigation on this trip. There is not much danger. I need you to accompany me and use your beast control talent to help me determine some information." It is probably because of this
. Russell was a little hesitant about the sudden mission, and Turandot added:
"The Southern Principality Alliance headquarters attaches great importance to the Black Dew Secret Realm. If the secret realm is developed smoothly, the reward you will receive will not be lower than the last time."
After saying that, she jumped on the head of the three-headed dragon snake again. Regardless of whether Russell agreed or not, she commanded the three-headed dragon snake to roll up its long tail and placed him on the other snake head.
Although it is indeed a bit unpleasant to be pushed to the shelves like this, but hearing the words "the reward will not be less than last time", Russell would not have the slightest objection.
He immediately grasped the slightly raised horns on the heads of the three dragon snakes, and followed Turandot obediently into the depths of the Black Dew Forest.
