A loud thud was heard as the ground shook violently, and the Armored Wild Boar slammed onto the ground.

The sharp wolf claws had already pierced through its back scale armor and stabbed into the Armored Wild Boar's body.

The asphalt-like shadow substance seeped through the gaps in the scale armor, eroding it—this was the Power of Shadow controlled by the Netherworld Hell Wolf.

This shadow power carries a corrosive trait.

The bronze scales sizzled under corrosion, as if a red-hot branding iron was imprinted on them, while black smoke emerged from the Armored Wild Boar's body, drifting up into the air and spreading.

"Armored Wild Boar!"

"Are you okay!"

Mosi seemed very worried about the state of the Armored Wild Boar.

From his perspective, the Armored Wild Boar's incredibly hard bronze scales seemed like paper before this shadow creature.

Just then, the Armored Wild Boar let out a painful howl.

The scale armor of the Armored Wild Boar exploded with a bang, and dark red blood mixed with broken bones sprayed onto the ground.

The Nether Wolf seized the opportunity, opening its mouth, and deep within the pitch-black throat, a blue flame ignited.

These flames spread instantly, covering the entire Armored Wild Boar.

The Armored Wild Boar felt the pain of being engulfed in flames; it suddenly got up from the ground and charged forcefully in the distance.

When Mosi saw the charging direction of the Armored Wild Boar, his pupils constricted sharply.

"No, Armored Wild Boar, that's where the sixth unnameable being, the Medusa Statue, is confined. Do not enter the statue's range."

Mosi shouted loudly at the Armored Wild Boar, worried that his pet beast would be petrified by Medusa.

But the Armored Wild Boar, covered in Hellfire, did not heed Mosi's words due to the intense pain from its body, and instead, it charged fiercely towards the Medusa Statue.

There was an altar there, deep within which coiled snake-haired stone carvings. When living creatures approached within thirty feet, the scales emitted delicate, spell-like sounds, akin to living serpent scales.

Simultaneously, the eyes of the statue would slowly open, allowing escape at that moment.

Once the eyes fully open, they would emit dazzling gray-white light.

Wherever the light touches, the ground would calcify visibly, turning all living beings into stone statues.

The Medusa Statue's weakness was simple, it can petrify only one pet beast at a time and requires a one-hour interval before reusing the petrification.

Originally, around the Medusa Statue, a large number of mirrors were arranged to prevent Medusa from petrifying people or pet beasts.

But in the recent violent earthquake, the mirrors shattered, losing their ability to restrain Medusa.

At this moment, the Armored Wild Boar lifted its head, making direct eye contact with the Medusa Statue.

Its pupils directly showed marble patterns, which then rapidly spread, followed by joint stiffening, and finally, its entire body turning into gray-white rock resembling the statue material.

"Oh no, my Armored Wild Boar."

A pet beast petrified by Medusa could survive if a Petrification Potion was administered and treatment was given.

However, after the Armored Wild Boar was petrified, it did not stop but charged like a cannonball straight into the Medusa Statue.

Under the violent impact, spider-web-like cracks appeared on the surface of the Medusa Statue, and the Armored Wild Boar's body fragmented.

Bright red blood seeped from the stone, quickly forming a pungent pool of liquid.

"No!"

Mosi felt the contract break, leaving only one possibility, the Armored Wild Boar had completely died.

"Mosi, stay composed, summon the next pet beast immediately."

Master Zhishen shouted loudly, panting heavily.

At this moment, his heartache intensified.

"What did you do to me? Why can I hardly breathe?"

Master Zhishen glared fiercely at Ye Bai, like a vicious hungry wolf.

"Aren't monks supposed to be compassionate? Why do you give me the impression of a bandit?"

Ye Bai did not answer Master Zhishen's question; instead, he made a small mockery.

"Rest assured, your heart has nice things in it."

"Of course, I won't kill you; your crimes will be presented to the higher-ups of the Flame Country."

"You will live until the day of judgment."

"But by then, your reputation will be completely ruined."

Ye Bai said maliciously; honestly, he had no fondness for Master Zhishen, and rather his dislike was more intense.

The once good 750 Bureau was made chaotic and foul by Master Zhishen, which made Ye Bai feel very angry.

The 750 Bureau is an important department of the Flame Country, shouldering the significant mission of researching the unnameable beings.

Now Ye Bai saw the decayed upper echelon, the unambitious middle echelon, and the ineffective lower echelon.

All shortcomings were concealed by false reports.

"Kuimu Wolf, watch out, those golden killer bees are coming."

Blue Phoenix reminded nearby.

Each of these killer bees was one meter tall, glowing golden all over, buzzing in the air.

The Ten Thousand Changes Butterfly then stepped forward, transforming into the Flame Butterfly.

The surrounding temperature began to rise significantly as it faced off tensely with the Geng Metal Killer Bees.

The Geng Metal Killer Bees hovered with vibrating wings, their copper eyes refracting chilly prismatic light, their bodies glowing with dark gold patterns, with barbed tips like poisoned daggers, oozing purple venom.

Their translucent wing membranes vibrated rapidly, emitting metallic scraping buzzes.

Its gaze fell on the Ten Thousand Changes Butterfly surrounded by raging flames, its compound eyes reflecting the fierce flames, with the leisurely wing-flapping sound.

The fire disturbed the air, causing distortion.

The surrounding temperature rapidly increased.

The Geng Metal Killer Bee suddenly realized that its body temperature was steadily rising.

"Not good, killer bee, attack the pet beast before us immediately."

Chris could sense the unease within the killer bees and directly issued an order.

The killer bee flew into the air with a buzz, brandishing sharp pincers like scissors, rapidly diving downward.

It stirred up what seemed like gusts of Wind Blades, rushing in all directions.

The Ten Thousand Changes Butterfly split into clones, dispersing its butterfly shadows into three afterimages.

One clone was pierced by the bee tail stinger, its wings corroded into charred black holes.

The killer bee's compound eyes flared crimson, its wing membrane vibration frequency doubled, breaking the sound barrier, and the resulting shockwave scattered the gravel within a five-foot radius—it became serious.

The buzzing sound filled the air.

The Geng Metal Killer Bees transformed into streaks of light, battling the Ten Thousand Changes Butterfly in mid-air.

Occasionally, a killer bee had its wings cut off by the Ten Thousand Changes Butterfly and fell from the sky.

Its massive stinger was riddled with cracks.

These killer bees convulsed on the ground, and soon after, they lost their breath.

"Watch out!"

Zhang Lingxue suddenly shouted as the True Bright Goddess Butterfly descended, unleashing its Holy Light Protection.

Milky white light enveloped Ye Bai, as a bee queen, larger than the regular Geng Metal Killer Bees, appeared.

Its thick stinger pierced the milky light shield, leaving a three-inch deep indentation, almost piercing Ye Bai's brain.

"Thank goodness."

Zhang Lingxue breathed a sigh of relief, having watched keenly for threats to Ye Bai.

Thankfully, she noticed this point, otherwise the bee queen might have impaled Ye Bai's head.

In fact, even if the True Bright Goddess Butterfly hadn't acted, the God of Candle Dragon was ready to intervene.

An Immortal Sword suddenly emerged from thin air, radiating dazzling light, and more clones appeared.

Ye Bai waved his hand, and the Immortal Swords swooshed out.

The Geng Metal Killer Bees fell like raindrops from the sky.

Their wings were sliced by the Immortal Sword, leaving a huge gouge in their foreheads.

If someone were to pick them up now, they'd discover they were merely a skin.
