King of Beasts

“Just kidding.” Lu Ran laughed as he saw the sudden death king with a bitter expression.

Then, he turned his gaze towards the dark crow.

“Caw.” The dark crow nodded and slightly closed its eyes.

In the next moment.

It felt as if the entire region of the Green Sea appeared in its mind.

However, it was all blurred.

Only a rough outline could be seen.

To observe more clearly, it still needed to project the Evil God’s Eye.

At present, the trait of the Evil God’s Eye endowed the dark crow with unimaginable space perception and scouting talent.

At this moment, the one-eared was giving a lecture to his underlings in a warehouse.

Suddenly.

The void seemed to tear open, and a gigantic dark red eye appeared out of nowhere in the sky.

The pattern of the eye was identical to the dark crow’s, both having black eyes with a blood-red vertical pupil.

Gulp…

The eyeball rolled in the Evil God’s Eye, and the dark crow’s perception of this place became increasingly vivid.

“Meow!!” However, this scene frightened the one-eared and its group. They looked at the suddenly appearing Evil God’s Eye with great alarm, their fur standing on end.

The terrifying eye stared at dozens of cats for a moment, then disappeared to find its next target… There was no battle here.

The range of the dark crow’s scouting continued to expand during which Lu Ran maintained telepathy with the dark crow.

Before long, the dark crow’s focus extended to the boundaries of the Green Sea.

In this area.

The bug king was on duty, watching another swarm of mosquitoes cross the sea region, trying to reach the Green Sea. The bug king showed an unfriendly expression.

Bzzz bzzz bzzz-

Hundreds of mutant mosquito beasts, all pitch black, swept in from the sky. Although each was below level 10, with not very high levels, mosquitoes had become the most troublesome creatures for human cities now.

“Swish!!”

Just as the bug king was about to spread its wings and lead the princes and princesses behind it for some training, suddenly, the Evil God’s Eye opened here again.

The eerie Evil God’s Eye not only startled the bug king and its group but also made the swarm of mosquitoes instantly feel an ominous aura, as if they were locked on by a terrifying existence.

“Found them, the intruders.”

On Emerald Mountain, the dark crow opened its eyes and let out a “caw caw caw” laugh.

“Let there be mutual slaughter-” It whispered like an evil god, as its cursed spirit slipped into the void, flying swiftly towards the targeted enemies.

Originally, the dark crow’s attack range was just over a hundred meters, but now, with the added boost from its targeting Talent, its curse extended across 500 meters, 1000 meters, 5000 meters… And yet, the energy expenditure remained minimal.

Not long after.

The bug king’s species, guarding the border, witnessed a shocking scene. The swarm of mosquitoes suddenly went insane, their eyes transforming to the pattern of the Evil God’s Eye. In the air, they began a brutal fight against each other, with blood splattering across the ground.

And nearby, the Evil God’s Eye observed everything, as if it were the source of all this evil.

[What is this!] The bug king was also on high alert. However, this Evil God’s Eye merely glanced at them briefly, then closed its eye and slowly faded away.

Through the contract link and telepathy, Lu Ran roughly sensed the dark crow’s achievements and couldn’t help but feel astonished.

This range of over ten thousand meters had indeed allowed it to effortlessly curse and kill a group of enemies. In a simpler secret realm, it might even be able to clear stages without ever seeing the BOSS, greatly accelerating resource farming efficiency…

“Ah!!! My eyes, my eyes!!!”

“I can’t see, it’s so dark!!”

However, the dark crow couldn’t maintain its cool for more than a few seconds. Blood began to trickle from the corners of its eyes. Observing enemies over such a vast distance had put an immense strain on its eyes.

Nearby, General Ha and the sudden death king both had disdainful expressions, although they didn’t know what had happened.

Was this minor injury worth crying out about?

But then they both fell silent, looking at each other. Why did their team always end up self-harming after every battle?

“Buzz!”

In the next moment, Lu Ran held the divine deer antler and gave it a light wave. The golden-green healing wave instantly mended General Crow’s eyes.

“Hey?” The blood stopped, and light returned to its eyes. The Dark Crow General was momentarily stunned.

“As long as I’m here, don’t be afraid. Even if your eyes are damaged, I can heal them back.”

“Big King is invincible!!!”

“Ah… What magnificent power of the king!!!”

The Dark Crow General was elated!

“…” At this moment, Lu Ran was already eager to take the dark crow to a secret realm for a challenge.

He wanted to see if they could curse-kill a BOSS right at the entrance and clear the stage efficiently.

However, Lu Ran glanced at the cloud baby nearby and pondered; he had to deal with this little one first.

“Pitter-patter…” The weather elf, seeing General Crow’s eyes inexplicably bleeding, was even more frightened of it.

This made the dark crow feel quite wounded.

It really wasn’t a bad crow.

“Let’s test your power next.”

Lu Ran looked at the weather elf, which was a level 1 middle sovereign. In theory, it should not be at a disadvantage even against a level 20 middle supernatural.

It could also hold its own against a level 10 middle commander.

So, although the weather elf had just been born, its strength should not be underestimated!

“By the way, since you are an element, can you shape yourself?”

Lu Ran looked at the cloud baby and said, “You can change your form, right?”

Lu Ran took out his phone and pulled up a picture of a little girl…

“No, you can’t see this.”

“Do you remember the older sister who left our place when you woke up, or the older sister who went down the mountain earlier? Can you transform into something similar?”

“Caw?” The dark crow rubbed its eyes.

The weather elf was slightly confused.

As a cloud, it could change its form in countless ways. But given its young age, it didn’t understand why Lu Ran wanted it to do this.

Wasn’t its current simple form easier? Why make things so complicated…

However, since it was Lu Ran’s request, the weather elf complied and began to shape-shift into a humanoid form.

Before long.

What started as a mass of cloud resembling cotton candy began to form into a girl-like shape. Although its body was still entirely made of white cloud, the form was much more animated compared to before.

“Hey, it really works.” Lu Ran’s eyes lit up.

“Can this form summon thunder?” Lu Ran asked. Immediately, the weather elf transformed from an ordinary cloud into a black thundercloud, with electricity flickering within its body…

Boom.

A bolt of lightning shot out from its arm effortlessly, burning through several large trees in its path before dissipating.

…

A moment later.

The weather elf, exhausted, fell asleep again.

Lu Ran called out,

“Manager Ying!!!”

“What do you want now?” Manager Ying appeared, looking at Lu Ran with an expression of exasperation.

This guy always had something going on.

“No big deal. The weather elf fell asleep. Can you look after it for a while? I need to make a trip to Infinite City to buy some milk formula.”

“Why is it always-” Manager Ying started to complain, but then her eyes widened in shock at the sight of the cloud baby in Lu Ran’s arms.

Because of that bastard Lu Ran, Yunbao had shape-shifted into a cloud cat form and fallen asleep.

The form resembled Manager Ying’s species!

Trying to trigger Manager Ying’s maternal instincts.

Manager Ying: ???

“Is this how you treat elemental species???” She looked at Lu Ran, infuriated.

Oh, he’s playing the family card now, isn’t he?

“Haha…” Lu Ran scratched his head, laughing, “Mainly because the cat form is cuter, Manager Ying. You wouldn’t want this adorable cloud elf to shape-shift into a form like Erha to fight, right?”

Manager Ying: ???

“Woof woof woof!!” Beside them, General Ha was not pleased.

“Roar!!” The sudden death king felt that both cat and dog forms were unreliable; transforming into a cloud giant dragon for battles seemed more reliable.

“Caw.” The dark crow was still wiping its tears, thinking, cloud crow, oh cloud crow.

Manager Ying looked at Lu Ran’s three misfit pet beasts, then at the adorable cloud cat. After a moment of contemplation, she gritted her teeth and said, “Just don’t let it turn into a dog.”

General Ha: “Woof!!”

It noted this grievance.

“Hahahahaha.” Lu Ran couldn’t help but laugh. It was so easy to win over Manager Ying.

“What’s so funny?” Manager Ying snapped.

“By the way, Manager Ying, I’ve already prepared the evolution traits for General Ha, the Sudden Death King, and the Dark Crow. Their post-evolution training doesn’t need to be rushed, but for the weather elf, the nature control trait alone isn’t enough.”

“Do you have any intelligence on legendary overlord Bosses with similar abilities?”

“In level 2 Legendary Secret Realms.”

Lu Ran knew he had to eventually challenge a level 2 Legendary Secret Realm. The one in Xia Country, called the Tomb of Death, had a BOSS known as the Asura Centipede, a lower overlord species. The chances of obtaining a trait suitable for the weather elf from it weren’t high.

Therefore, he decided to ask Manager Ying about other level 2 Legendary Secret Realms around the world, particularly those in public Infinite Cities or other countries, to see if there was any overlord BOSS with weather power.

If there was, Lu Ran planned to take it on. If it dropped a suitable trait, it would save him from having to think too much.

“Didn’t you say I’m the illegitimate child of Infinite City? Let’s see if it can provide me with a suitable trait.”

Even if it didn’t, Lu Ran could use the resources obtained to trade for other needed resources.

“Let me think,” Manager Ying said. “Meng Country’s level 2 Legendary Secret Realm has a BOSS that is a young Desert Tyrant, a lower overlord species with sandstorm power. It’s incredibly strong, and no one has cleared it yet.”

“Egypt’s level 2 Legendary Secret Realm has a BOSS that is a young Sun Eagle, a lower overlord species that controls sunlight power.”

“There’s also a public Infinite City on the high seas, where the BOSS is a young dragon that can summon winds, rains, and control thunder. It’s a typical Eastern Loong, quite compatible with the weather elf’s species.”

“Oh, and another country’s level 2 Secret Realm BOSS is a mutated sea beast corrupted by pollution, capable of summoning highly corrosive acid rain. Yeah, you probably wouldn’t like that one.”

“OK, OK, compile the information and send it to my phone. If there are any strategic tips for the BOSS included, that would be great. I’m heading to Infinite City now.” Seeing that Manager Ying was as reliable as ever, Lu Ran handed the cloud cat to her and eagerly prepared to go to Infinite City.

He wanted to spend! He wanted to test the Dark Crow’s abilities on a Secret Realm BOSS!

Lu Ran packed up his self-harming team and, under Manager Ying’s grumbling gaze, teleported away immediately!
