Chapter 230: Prepared to Lead the Team

When no more Black-Gold Armored Spiders came out of the nest, the Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic Butterfly let the three High-tier Gold Black-Gold Armored Spiders into the spider nest.

[Ding! Your Divine Pet, Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic Butterfly, has leveled up to Low-Tier Gold!]

After clearing out the Black-Gold Armored Spiders in the spider nest, the three Black-Gold Armored Spiders controlled by the Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic Butterfly committed suicide in front of it one by one.

From the beginning to the end, the Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic Butterfly had directly eliminated the Black-Gold Armored Spiders.

Its ability was so strange that it made people feel a chill in their hearts.

However, at this time, the Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic Butterfly was very tired.

Lugh knew that the Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic Butterfly had already worked very hard.

With the strength of Top-tier Silver, it was definitely not easy to control three Top-tier Gold Black-Gold Armored Spiders to fight.

[Ding! The Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic Butterfly has successfully destroyed the forty-five Black Gold-Armored Spiders in the nest.]

[Mission completed. The Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic Butterfly’s Normal-Tier Spirit Resistance talent has been upgraded to Rare-Tier Spirit Resistance talent.]

[Ding! Your Divine Pet Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic Butterfly’s talent has been upgraded. Its growth potential has increased from Low-Tier King to Middle-Tier King.]

Regardless of which talent the Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic Butterfly had upgraded, Lugh was happy.

With the improvement in the Spirit Resistance talent, the Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic Butterfly would have a greater advantage when dealing with spirit-type Fierce Beasts in the future.

Speaking of which, the Berserk Bear also had the Spirit Resistance talent.

After collecting the Black-Gold Armored Spiders’ crystal cores, Lugh also peeled off the black-gold armor of the three Top-Grade Gold Black-Gold Armored Spiders.

Lugh also did not give up on the eight saber legs on their bodies.

The materials on the bodies of Black Iron, Bronze, and Silver-tier Fierce Beasts were mostly worthless.

When the Fierce Beasts reached Gold-tier, the materials on their bodies began to be valuable.

The eight saber legs of the Black-Gold Armored Spiders could also be grinded into knives and daggers. They were very sharp and could easily pierce through almost all Silver-tier defenses.

However, Gold-grade sharp weapons, swords, and defensive armor were not of much use to Lugh.

No sword or blade was as solid as his fist.

Swords and blades could be blocked by the Fierce Beast armor.

However, the fist force could not be blocked by ordinary armor. Through the armor, it could still cause great damage to the Fierce Beasts.

The most suitable weapons for Lugh were still heavy weapons.

For example, cudgels, heavy axes, and heavy hammers.

However, Lugh’s strength was still increasing rapidly with the rapid growth of the Berserk Bear.

If he bought a heavy weapon today, it might feel lighter tomorrow.

As for the defensive armor, it was the same principle.

The Berserk Bear’s talent was a true combination of offense and defense.

“Stormhawk, let’s go to the next place.”

Now was a good time to kill Gold-tier beasts. If they went to Hepeng Valley. However, there was no information from the military about the location of Gold-tier beasts.

Five days later, the Stormhawk leveled up to Top-tier Gold, catching up with the Bloodthirsty Hell Vine.

However, at this time, Elisa appeared and announced that the 7th and 10th Emergency Response Teams were going back to Skylight City.

Lugh did not have anything to be reluctant about. Almost all the Gold-tier beasts near Mita City had been killed. He was not the only one who killed Gold-tier beasts.

Elisa ordered, “The flying pet is still here. Help carry more people.”

The two members of the emergency team had lost a lot of flying pet beasts in that defensive battle.

Lugh could only rejoice. He was glad that the Stormhawk had a high-altitude reconnaissance mission and didn’t need to carry people.

The Stormhawk’s personality had always been very arrogant. Other than Lugh, no one else could touch it.

Not even Lugh’s sister.

It was almost impossible for it to carry people unless Lugh was ruthless enough to force it.

The Stormhawk rose into the air and guarded the two returning teams.

Lugh sat behind Elisa in a daze.

Behind him were seventeen coffins tied together neatly.

The coffins were wrapped in bright union flags.

In each coffin lay a member of Team 7, a comrade that Lugh had met more than 10 days ago.

On the back of the Black Gold Eagle, Lugh and Elisa were somewhat silent.

“Captain, after we return, do we have any missions?”

Elisa kept looking forward. “For a period of time, there won’t be any group missions. There might be small scale missions that will be distributed. Most of the members can still replenish their pet beasts and recover their strength.”

“Mhm.”

Elisa looked at the empty sky and said, “When the time comes, they might still need your help if they want to recover their strength.”

“My help?”

“Yes,” Elisa said. “As you know, there are two types of Beast Masters’ pet beasts. One is hatched from Divine Beast eggs, and they are nurtured from a young age. The other is captured directly in the wild.”

“The Beast Masters in our emergency team have suffered heavy losses from their pet beasts. After resting for a period of time, if they want to replenish their pet beasts, they can only go to the wild to capture adult pet beasts to form their combat strength.”

Elisa smiled and said, “Of course, it won’t just be you. The other members of our team will have to cooperate and help those members who have suffered heavy losses from their pet beasts.”

“Okay.”

This mission was likely to slow down the rate at which Lugh was leveling up from hunting beasts.

But he couldn’t postpone it.

In his mind, the members of the Emergency Response Team are all heroes.

With the eye of the Mythical Eagle Eye, not only did the Stormhawk’s vision and vision improve dramatically, it also has the ability to see through illusions, camouflage, invisibility, many powerful beasts that were found in advance by it..

On the way back, the two teams didn’t encounter any danger.

After more than ten days, they finally made it back to the military camp.

At this moment, Lugh also saw the Captain of the Emergency Response Team, Bania, for the first time.

He was an old man in his fifties. He personally welcomed the 7th and 10th Teams.

In the mausoleum of Skylight City, the remaining members of the 7th emergency team were all present.

Amidst solemn and mournful music, seventeen Gold-tier Beast Masters were buried.

Lugh also saw the grieving family members of his former comrades. He seemed to have understood what Bruce had said to him back then.

People always wanted to move on.

They couldn’t always be immersed in sorrow.

This was especially so for the military Beast Masters. They had long since become indifferent to life and death.

Even Lugh, a sixteen-year-old Beast Master, had become more mature after being baptized by several great battles.

After the funeral, Skylight City would naturally reward them with a round of martial arts.

Although the casualty rate of Skylight City’s Emergency Response Team was quite high, more than half of Skylight City’s upper echelons came from the Emergency Response Team.

This included the current Guardian of Skylight City, General Paul, who was in charge of the Southwest Military Region’s affairs.

“Not only does he have excellent combat talent, but he also has powerful scouting abilities. During the march, he helped the squad leaders avoid risks several times to preserve their combat strength. He was extremely outstanding in the defense of Mita City. Not only did he kill a large number of Fierce Beasts, greatly reducing the losses of our Beast Masters, but he also used his strength to block the seventeen adult Rock Armor Rhinoceroses that were about to charge into Mita City, averting the danger of Mita City being breached.”

Many members of the 7th and 10th Team looked at Lugh.

Of course, they knew who Paul was talking about.

Some of them had even been saved by the Bloodthirsty Hell Vine.

“He has received high praise from the Guardian of Mita City, James, the Deputy Guardian, Cook, and the Captain and Vice-Captains of the 7th and 10th Teams of the Emergency Response Team. After discussion in the Southwest Military Department, Lugh, a member of the 7th Emergency Response Team, has been awarded the rank of Major in the Southwest Military Department.”

Lugh had the rank of Captain to begin with. When he was transferred to the Southwest Military Headquarters, his military rank hadn’t changed.

Thunderous applause rang out in the hall.

Amidst the applause, Lugh was a little excited.

Paul looked at him with a gratified expression. “Come on up.”

Other than Lugh, many other Beast Masters were also rewarded for their accumulated battle merits.

There was also a collective Third-Class Merit.

However, this commendation event also boosted the morale of the 7th and 10th Emergency Response Teams.

After returning to the barracks, Bruce patted Lugh’s shoulder with a smile and said, “It’s the first time I’ve seen such a young Major. You’re sixteen now, right? When you’re forty, you might even be a General.”

The rank of a Major was already considered a mid-to-high rank in the Southwest Military.

Lugh also felt that he had been promoted a little too quickly.

The 7th Emergency Response Team was still in the period of rest, and the members’ combat strength had not recovered yet.

If there were no urgent and important missions, the Southwest Military would not have allowed them to move out.

Summer had arrived, and the continuous thunderstorms for a few days had affected their trip.

Lugh simply rested in the villa for five days of vacation. When he returned to the 7th Team, he was targeted by Captain Elisa.
