Barbaric Beasts originate from the bloodline of ancient divine beasts, but it has gradually diluted over ti.
They possess intelligence too, but overall they remain sowhat savage, which is why they are given the na "Barbaric Beasts."
The most absurd thing is that they quite like the adjective "barbaric."
However, as mbers of the Demon Race allied with Barbaric Beasts, they are not very trusting of these neighbors with violence embedded in their genes, so when placing scouts and sentries, they usually choose from the Demon Race.
In comparison, animals that have cultivated into demons understand the ways of survival better, and they have various thods to hide themselves or disrupt enemies.
Right now, Zhao Jia has discovered a difficult enemy.
"Snake Demons are the best at hiding, here's the crawling trace they left behind. Although it has been disguised, it hasn't been cleaned thoroughly."
Li Rui said: "No worries, Brother Zhao, just tell
in which direction."
Zhao Jia nodded silently.
While Zhao Jia replenished his depleted Spiritual Power with Spirit Recovery Potion, he used his skill to search for guidance, finally finding another scout.
"Three Snake Demons together, their individual strength shouldn't exceed the Leopard Demon from earlier."
He said confidently, "How about this, I'll act as an assistant to lure them out, then you can sneak attack like before."
"No problem."
Li Rui agreed.
So, Zhao Jia used his only state skill, which wasn't powerful, just a normal speed boost, and began to probe forward alone with his Longsword.
Using his analyst capabilities, he found the hiding place of the Snake Demon's true form, which was in the treetop branches.
From a distance away from the enemy's hiding spot, he suddenly accelerated and dashed out.
Events unfolded as expected, as soon as he appeared, three green figures that blended with the environnt shot out from the treetops, transforming into snake head-humanoids wielding daggers.
However, suddenly Zhao Jia felt panic.
Because as soon as he ca out, he realized the presence of Li Rui was gone and he seed to be alone amidst enemy ambush.
Three figures attacked from mid-air, moving swiftly like lightning, nearly invisible to him, but having rich experience, he had already analyzed the enemy's most likely attack route, so he retreated directly in the predicted direction.
Sure enough, the three Snake Demons missed their target, and Zhao Jia managed to retreat unscathed.
The Snake Demons possessed more tricks, however, as one, although failing to land a hit, rotated its golden eyes to lock onto the target, and its idle wrist shook, summoning two green snakes to chase after him with demon technique.
Leveling up ant even common little monsters gained more attack thods.
Zhao Jia was prepared, raising his sword to cut the green snakes flying towards him, but by then, Li Rui was already chasing up.
He swung one figure to disperse the green snakes into two streams of black smoke, not pausing his steps at all, and with golden light, he instantly advanced by the Snake Demon.
Two figures, three figures, this ti aiming not at the face but at the back.
Two Snake Demons who hadn't reacted were directly knocked down.
The remaining Snake Demon was the one who used demon technique to summon the green snakes, reacting quickly when the sudden attacker revealed its aura, sensing sothing wrong, it imdiately leapt to escape.
The most insidious part was, before retreating, it scattered a handful of poisonous powder.
However, unexpectedly, the monstrous figure was unaffected by the poisonous powder, taking a step forward to grab its tail.
Bang! Bang!
Li Rui grabbed the Snake Demon with one hand and fiercely slamd it twice on the ground.
The three Snake Demons fainted rapidly, only then did Zhao Jia halt his retreat.
"Is it, is it that simple?"
He confird that this person surely isn't a Rain Summoner.
No Rain Summoner uses large slaps to kill enemies, faster than Snake Demons, very resistant to poison, and has stealth, right?
Li Rui's stealth cos from the manager's cloak, gained during the Northwest expansion era, an ability to cause chaos—animal instinct, making it harder to be detected in forest environnts.
Previously he always fought his way through, so he never had much opportunity to use it.
Now he was worried these scouts might flee when they see many enemies, only then did it prove its effectiveness.
Actually, he was worrying too much.
They were only two, the enemies wouldn't think they were many.
"Brother Zhao, please sever their ridians and tie them up. We need to take them alive for mission reward settlent."
"Okay, okay." Zhao Jia hurriedly agreed and took out the Barbaric Beast sinew ropes from the inventory to tie the three Snake Demons tightly.
"Okay, you guide
and look after them, leave the job of enemy slaying to ."
Li Rui laughed, "I'm physically stronger, more convenient."
Stronger, is that so?
Zhao Jia believed this one must be a newly risen superstar familiar with Nan Jiui, only just erged and not yet widely known, instantly deciding to cling onto him tightly.
With nearly level 40, it's impossible not to have this insight.
He was secretly delighted, a Secret Realm having two superstars is surely capable to clear it.
Right then, an unanticipated alert arrived.
[Random Event Triggered: Forest Hunt.]
[Objective: Kill the target or successfully escape.]
[Reward: Experience Points
220000, Excellent Quality Consumable x4, Excellent Quality Upgrade Material x8.]
Simultaneously, seven figures, tigers, leopards, wild boar, various kinds erged from the forest.
Random event?!
Zhao Jia was puzzled.
How could a random event be triggered in such a place? There's no precedent ntioned in the strategy.
Due to the sharp decrease in the number of high-level Secret Realm agents, strategy samples are also scarce. Actually, it's not impossible to encounter random events here, but absent being extre misfortune, it's not easy to trigger them.
The initial probability is so low, hence no one has encountered it, naturally it was Li Rui's doing.
But this guy wasn't pleased either.
"What a junk event, such a stingy reward."
He got out a Vajra Umbrella and imdiately ca to Zhao Jia's side.
The latter was sowhat moved, just about to say no need to worry about , when he heard the other say:
"Protect the captives well, don't let them be affected."
"...."
Without waiting for Zhao Jia's reaction, Li Rui turned into a streak of golden light and rushed out.
Clang clang clatter!
How could seven ordinary small demons be a match for Li Rui, instantly they were all knocked down again.
Li Rui tied them up, squatting down before a group of demons and asked: "Who is the leader?"
All demons looked towards a Tiger Demon.
"What do you intend?" It tried to appear strong.
Li Rui wasn't fazed, simply asked: "Are you scouts?"
"Don't expect to hear from my mouth..."
Bang!
Crack.
Li Rui landed a powerful slap on its head, spinning it 180 degrees, then looked at other small demons: "Who's the second in command?"
"I, it's ."
A Wolf Demon said stiffly.
"Are you scouts?"
The Wolf Demon stared at that terrifying human face, not daring to hide anything: "No. We are forest patrol guards..."
"From now on, you are scouts, understood?" Li Rui interrupted it.
"Yes, understood."
The Wolf Demon actually didn't understand.
"Let
ask again, are you scouts?"
"...Yes?" The Wolf Demon hesitatedly answered.
"Good."
Li Rui turned to another Fox Demon, "And you?"
"Replying to the lord, I'm also a scout." The fox was quick-witted.
"Do you know all scout defense arrangents?"
"Only the general knows, I'm just a pawn, not clear."
Li Rui nodded satisfactorily, looking at other demons: "Rember, this is the standard answer, whoever dares to let anything slip, I'll execute them on the spot."
"Yes!" The demons answered in unison.
At this mont, Zhao Jia comprehended what he intended.
Capturing alive is for settlent, with six more "scouts," there will be six more capture rewards.
But, is this even possible?
