The senior adventurers always acted vigorously and resolutely. Less than half an hour later, a carriage and three horses set off from the east gate of Jinta City and walked southeast along the road.

Riding on the horses were Ray, Steele and Liv, sitting in the carriage were Mrs. Teague and Little Niss, and the driver was one of the boys and girls who had gotten rid of their debts, named Rank. .

Among this group of boys and girls, there were only a few who were truly skilled, and Zesheng was naturally the strongest among them. But considering that if he is not here, this group of boys and girls will lose their backbone, and I am afraid that before everyone can find clues to find out the truth, they will be eaten alive by the Church of the Noble God, so not only must he stay, Several other skilled people must also stay.

Rank is the youngest son of the merchant. Unlike his elder brother who received education from a merchant since childhood, he has always admired the knight's style and has been learning the riding, swordsmanship, spearmanship and archery skills necessary for a knight from the Knight of Parn. However, he really lacks talent. After studying for five or six years, he can barely be called a rookie until now. He is not good at swordsmanship, spearmanship, and archery. The only thing that is decent is riding a horse.

Unlike his poor talent as a knight, his talent as a businessman is pretty good. He has a certain level of ability in settling accounts, negotiating, and appraising. What's especially rare is that he is very good at driving, and his driving skills are even inferior to Liv, who is recognized as being good at riding horses.

His brother is a resourceful man and has worked hard to pay off his debts. But he has been taking risks and working hard with everyone, and wants to do more for everyone. When he went to pay off his debt today, he also took the initiative to negotiate with the Church of the God of Nobles. After some bargaining, the interest was really reduced a lot, saving everyone a lot of money.

After this period of hardship, these young people have understood the importance of money. Everyone was very happy to be able to save some money, and even bought some food and wine, and planned to have a small party at Liv's house to celebrate finally saying goodbye to the damn debt. After learning the news, everyone discussed it—or rather argued about it. Finally, Rank convinced everyone and started the journey together.

It is undeniable that his driving skills are indeed very good. The two draft horses almost go hand in hand with almost the same speed and run very smoothly. Sitting in the carriage, there was only a slight vibration and shaking, not a bump at all.

This is also thanks to the many magicians in the Mystic Tower Federation. Because there are enough mages, the roads between the towns in the Mystic Tower Federation are built with magic and are very smooth. It is specifically made like this: first tamp the soil on the ground, then cover the tamped soil with gravel, and then mix the clay and tamp it together to serve as a roadbed. Then, on the roadbed, use hard stones created by magic to make a slightly curved gravel road. At first glance, it looks quite similar to the stone pavements in some ancient cities on earth - but please note that this is not a pavement in the city, but a main road in a country that connects various towns in all directions!

In the entire main plane, only the "Mage Country" can complete such a huge project. The reason is very simple. They have enough middle and low-level mages who can cast spells and process huge stones into suitable shapes, eliminating a lot of work. Manpower.

In fact, according to the rules of the Secret Magic Tower Federation, if a mage wants to build his own magic tower, he must ensure that it has at least one standard road surface that can be connected to the road system of the entire country, and he must also be responsible for maintaining his own magic tower. Roads within a certain radius around the tower, making sure they are not damaged.

With such amazing investment, the smoothness of transportation in this country can be said to be unparalleled in the world.

Well, that's assuming you don't take into account the countless monsters that are constantly being killed.

When it was getting late, they found an open space to rest temporarily. Lei left the words "I'll clean up the surroundings" and went into the nearby woods with a pistol and a sword.

When the tent was set up, the bonfire was lit, the flour and wheat were cooked into porridge, the dried meat was turned into broth, and the fragrance filled the air above the camp, he came back covered in blood, with a special stick in his hand. A thick cable was tied to the cable, and a monster tied up with five flowers was tied behind it. It followed listlessly behind it, and was led back like a cow or sheep.

This monster is somewhat similar to an ape, but its downy face is full of flesh, making it far more ferocious and ferocious than an ordinary ape. The sharp tusks and sharp claws prove that it is definitely not a kind person, and the burly physique that makes ordinary wild bears submit to it is even more proof of its strength.

The most terrifying thing is that when it breathes, there are clearly tiny sparks coming out of its mouth, and a faint smell of sulfur comes out. Liv and Rank were just two inexperienced novices. As soon as Mrs. Teague smelled the sulfur smell, she knew its origin.

"A purgatory ferocious ape? No, it's a purgatory ferocious giant ape! This is not an easy character to deal with. I didn't expect that you captured him alive." She smiled and said, "Mr. Lei, you are really a powerful knight! "

Lei smiled, put down the rope, and let the demon ape, which was tied like a rice dumpling, squat down on one side in dejection: "You're very flattering. This guy is actually not particularly strong. I just want to avoid hurting it too much." It’s just a little troublesome to catch it under the premise.”

Liv and Rank were dumbfounded. Their little adventure group had also encountered ferocious purgatory creatures. At that time, they encountered a dire wolf with slight signs of purgatory transformation, accompanied by four ordinary dire wolves. A wolf pack formed. They had a thrilling fight that time. If a group of senior adventurers hadn't happened to pass by and lend a helping hand to them, several people would have died.

As we all know, among various animals, giant apes are particularly powerful. A ferocious giant ape from purgatory would probably require a team of experienced adventurers to fight it steadily. And for a novice adventure group like them, once they encounter it, they will most likely be wiped out.

And as far as they knew, apes, thunder monsters, like wolves, like to form gangs and often move in groups. Judging from the blood stains on Lei Na's body, he was probably stained by killing the entire herd of beasts. And he actually captured the terrifying and powerful Beast King alive. This strength is simply incredible!

"First... Sir, why are you grabbing this?" Rank came back to his senses and asked curiously, "Does it have any special value?"

"It's not of any special value. I just caught it to keep vigil at night." Lei said lightly, "This kind of ape-like monster has relatively high intelligence and is relatively easy to tame. I have already defeated this guy. Starting today, it helps us keep vigil.”

Capture a beast king to keep vigil? ! Not to mention Liv and Rank, even Mrs. Teague was shocked.

"Is it really okay? It won't attack us while we're sleeping?" Liv asked worriedly.

"No, it's not stupid." Lei walked up to the giant ape with a smile and patted its head, "You think so?"

The originally dejected giant ape seemed more honest after he approached, squatting on the ground fearfully and not daring to move. Like a tame wolf dog, he patted his head obediently without even making a sound.

"Look, he's quite sensible."

Everyone was speechless watching this scene, and they didn't know what kind of fighting method Lei used to "defeat" this ferocious monster.

"Huh? Didn't we take turns to watch the night before?" Steele was emerging from the tent. Seeing this scene, she asked curiously, "Are you still planning to go out at night?"

Lei nodded: "Yes, when we get to Yunta City, there will probably be a fierce battle. I have to seize the time to tame that disobedient guy, and I can't mess with it any longer."

"You're right, you've been messing around with that guy for too long." Steele agreed, "In my opinion, it's better to catch someone else to tame them. For example, this monkey is good. At least it's pretty. Be smart and be obedient if you know you can't beat him."

"Don't be ridiculous, there is no knight riding a monkey!" Lei shook his head, walked to the side with a smile, waved his hand, and released the copper-crowned flying dragon from the special space bag specially designed to imprison monsters.

This copper-crowned flying dragon is worthy of being the overlord of monsters in this area. Even though it has been imprisoned and tortured for a long time, its power is still undiminished. As soon as it came out, it shook its head and tail, let out a wild roar, and opened its bloody mouth to bite Lei to death.

What greeted it was a fist that seemed ordinary at first glance but was incredibly powerful. He knocked it down with just one punch and rolled on the ground several times until it hit a big tree and stopped.

"Can't you behave better, you idiot?" Lei muttered helplessly, walked over and grabbed the copper-crowned flying dragon by its tail, dragged the ferocious monster backwards and walked into the woods.

He walked a few steps, stopped, punched the flying dragon that was struggling to bite him, and then told the Warcraft giant ape squatting there: "Watch the night carefully and don't cause trouble, otherwise you will eat the purgatory monkey brains tomorrow morning!" "

The tall giant ape was startled when he saw the copper-crowned flying dragon just now, and the hair all over his body stood on end - ape-like monsters were originally delicacies on the dragon-like menu, even if this giant ape is far stronger than ordinary apes, But that flying dragon is also far stronger than ordinary flying dragons. If the two sides encounter each other in the wild, it may still be unable to escape the fate of food.

However, such a terrifying flying dragon that could feed on it was helpless in front of the not-so-big human being, and was beaten like a sandbag. This reminded him of the scene during the day - when he led his tribe to attack that man, the tribe was completely wiped out in the blink of an eye, and he was knocked unconscious. When he woke up, he was already behind bars and became a prisoner.

Looking back now, it turns out that people have been merciful.

And the reason why I was able to save my life was probably not because I wanted to tame myself, but just to find a watchdog.

The intelligent monster, which was still a little angry at first and wanted to find a chance to escape or do some tricks, sighed deeply, with a look of frustration and helplessness on its furry face.

This time, he really gave up and decided to change his career to be a watchdog.

The glory of the beast king? The nature of monsters

The most important thing is to survive!
