Others Tame Beasts, I Tame Demons - Chapter 11

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In the endless sea of trees, three young figures slowly moved forward.

They had left the main road and were deep in the forest.

1.3 kilometers to the right, low-level secret treasure discovered.

Looking at this notification, Su Yi felt like his heart was being scratched by a cat. He wished he could rush over immediately.

But he didn’t know what to tell his two teammates. He couldn’t just say, “I found a low-level treasure. Let’s go and look for it together.”

Just as he was in a dilemma, Zhang Xiaotong, who was walking behind, suddenly let out a soft cry and tripped over a tree root that had suddenly grown out.

“Is everything all right?”

Su Yi hurriedly went over to help her up. When he saw a big tree not far away shaking its leaves, as if it was mocking them, he could not help but feel a little angry.

This was the Mischievous Tree, also an extraordinary creature. Although not overly aggressive, it liked to mess with passing creatures.

In fact, along the way, not only Zhang Xiaotong, but he had also fallen a lot. Now, their knees were covered in mud.

Of course, it was not so embarrassing to walk in a normal forest. But here, one did not know when a branch would suddenly extend out from the ground and deliberately trip them.

In the entire team, only Bai Zhining had not been disturbed. Her footsteps were still light, and there was not even a speck of dust on her clothes.

“It’s quite interesting to see such extraordinary creatures in textbooks. After experiencing them for myself, I realized how annoying these trees are.”

Zhang Xiaotong frowned, clearly disgusted by this extraordinary creature.

“Although the Mischievous Tree is annoying, its combat strength is not weak. Its thick branches can easily strangle an elephant to death. If not for the fact that their race limit is only at the Ordinary level, they might have become a pet favored by newbies,” Bai Zhining commented indifferently.

“Senior, the Mischievous Tree doesn’t seem to have interfered with you. Is there a trick?”

Su Yi asked curiously.

“Most extraordinary creatures don’t dare to provoke creatures stronger than them. When you become elite Beast Tamers, the Mischievous Tree won’t dare to cause trouble for you either. Alright, follow closely and continue forward.”

Bai Zhining didn’t want to waste any more time.

Looking at her slender back, Zhang Xiaotong’s eyes flashed with admiration. She murmured, “Senior is so handsome. If only I could become as powerful as her…”

“If you work so hard, you can definitely do it in the future,” Su Yi encouraged with a smile.

“Thank you.” Zhang Xiaotong was a little embarrassed.

“Let’s go. This time you take the middle. I’ll go last.”

As a teammate, Su Yi did not mind taking care of such a reasonable and grateful girl.

Zhang Xiaotong was about to thank him again, but before she could say anything, her eyes were suddenly filled with fear.

“Look out!”

She screamed and subconsciously tried to push Su Yi away, but a crimson vine still wrapped around Su Yi’s neck from behind at lightning speed.

By the time Su Yi reacted, he had already been knocked down by a huge force. His back and the back of his head fell to the ground. Even though there was a layer of dead leaves on the ground, he was still dizzy from the fall.

The crimson vine did not care if he was injured. The moment he fell to the ground, it immediately dragged him back. No one knew where it wanted to drag him to.

“Senior, help!”

Zhang Xiaotong was completely flustered. She could only cry for help as she instinctively pounced forward and grabbed Su Yi’s legs.

“Stormbird, Wind Blade!”

As Bai Zhining’s crisp voice sounded, a huge green bird appeared in midair. With a whoosh, an invisible wind blade instantly slashed at the crimson vine.

The vine was instantly cut off like tofu, spraying blood-red mucus.

“You still want to run? Stormbird, Air Cannon!”

Seeing that the vines seemed to want to retreat underground, Bai Zhining ordered again.

Through telepathy, the Stormbird opened its beak and let out a long cry. An air cannonball condensed from spiritual energy smashed into the spot where the vine was hiding at an extremely fast speed.

The next moment, with a rumble, the dust mixed with blood-red mucus was raised high, and a huge pit nearly a meter deep was blasted out.

And the crimson vine was so dead that even its roots had been blown apart.

“Are you hurt?”

Seeing that Su Yi had already stood up with Zhang Xiaotong’s help, Bai Zhining showed her concern responsibly.

“Thank you, Senior. I’m not injured. My neck just hurts a little from being strangled.”

Su Yi coughed. He still felt a lingering fear when he thought of the situation just now.

“You’re lucky to have encountered the Vampiric Vine. This plant is extremely aggressive and is a focus of elimination. It’s already rare in the Lake Forest.”

Bai Zhining said a few more words.

“Really? Maybe it’s a sign that I’m lucky today and can contract a rare pet.”

Su Yi smiled, unaffected by what had just happened.

Bai Zhining was a little surprised, and her eyes flashed with approval.

She remembered the first time she had been attacked by an extraordinary creature in the wild. It had taken her a long time to adjust her mentality…

“I’m glad you’re okay … Huh? What happened to you?”

Bai Zhining was about to praise him when she realized that this junior was suddenly stunned.

At this moment, the system notification appeared in Su Yi’s mind again.

“Discovered dissipating soul power, absorbing…”

“Ding! Absorption complete. Obtained 23 points of soul power.”

Soul power?

What was this thing? Was it some kind of energy spilling out of the Vampiric Vine after its death?

‘Right!’

Su Yi finally remembered that the so-called soul power value seemed to be an indispensable condition for pet demonization!

In the past, he had wondered how he could obtain such a thing. So this was how it was!

“Hey, you OK?”

Bai Zhining asked again, frowning.

“I’m fine. Don’t worry, Senior.”

Su Yi finally came back to his senses and immediately smiled apologetically at his two teammates.

“I’m glad you’re okay. Let’s keep moving. We should see the lake in another half hour.”

Bai Zhining finally relaxed. She didn’t say anything else and continued to lead the way.

Su Yi followed her, a little distracted.

Although discovering the method to obtain soul power points made him happy, he was still most concerned about that secret treasure.

Initially, he had wanted to find a reason to leave the team and return after finding the treasure. However, after the attack just now, he had no choice but to dismiss the idea.

This place was even more dangerous than he had imagined. Without a pet, if he ran around freely, who knew if he would become a snack for some extraordinary creature!

“If only I could contract a powerful pet first. I wonder if I can meet one here that satisfies me…”

Su Yi sighed softly.

After seeing the little sable, he no longer cared about pets with a potential below the grandmaster level.

However, just as he was feeling emotional, a notification suddenly sounded.

“Ding, five kilometers to the right, king-level potential wild pet discovered!”
