Chapter 308: Lizard Beast!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
A sand dune rose into the sky, and a small figure fell out of it.
Mike casually brought the figure over and realized that it was a little boy.
He secretly observed the lizard beast’s expression. When the lizard beast saw the little boy, his expression instantly changed. Then, he forced himself to change it back as if nothing had happened.
The lizard beast asked, “Who are you?”
“Who are you? I’m telling you, there are no secrets in front of this lord of the Outlands. Think carefully before you say anything. Otherwise, your life will be forfeit!”
Mike glanced at the lizard beast and did not say anything. He still had use for the lizard beast now. Otherwise, he would really make a move.
The boy was obviously frightened. He looked at Mike timidly. After a moment, he said, “My name is An, from a tribe called Hutu.”
The lizard beast’s expression changed again. This time, Mike saw that the lizard beast’s face and eyes were clearly filled with uncontrollable joy!
Hmph, things are not that simple!
Mike wanted to investigate him thoroughly.
He reached out to stroke Ann’s head and said, “Let me ask you, do you know this guy?”
A trace of fear flashed through an’s eyes, but then he shook his head.
The lizard beast heaved a sigh of relief. Mike said, “Take me to the region harbor. I want to take the fastest transport to leave this place and head to the Northern Region.”
The lizard beast said, “Sir, this is naturally not a problem. The problem is that heading to the Northern Region requires everyone to pay a 10,000 gold coin tax. I wonder if you have it?”
This time, it was Mike’s turn to be surprised. He looked at the lizard beast. He was puzzled that as a heaven-tier powerhouse, this guy could not afford 10,000 gold coins.
The lizard beast scratched its head and said, “I only have enough money for me to maintain my daily recovery. I don’t have enough for other things.”
Mike nodded and said, “I can pay the tax for you. Bring me there.”
A greedy light flashed in the lizard’s eyes, and then disappeared completely, returning to his previous appearance.
He said with a smile, “Yes, sir. Let me show you the way. What should you do about this kid? You wouldn’t be taking him back, right?”
Mike frowned slightly. He squatted down and looked at the little boy, asking, “Little guy, where are your parents ?”
Ann did not say anything.
Mike asked again, “Are you willing to follow this lizard head?”
Ann’s little head shook like a rattle-drum.
Mike asked again, “Where are your adults?”
Ann then slowly said, “All my adults have been killed.”
Ann pointed at the lizard head. His eyes flashed with anger. He said, “It was him.”
Mike nodded, indicating that he knew.
Mike looked at the lizard beast and asked, “You killed his family?”
The lizard nodded frankly.
Mike said, “Then it seems that I am justified to kill you.”
Mike put his finger on the lizard’s throat and said,
“I didn’t think that you were good people. The murderous aura on each of you was so strong that it couldn’t be dispersed. I didn’t expect that you could even kill people so calmly. You guys are really animals.”
The lizard beast quickly defended itself:
“Sir, you can’t say that. His family stole something from our Alliance leader. We will only be heavy-handed if we want revenge.”
Mike laughed. “So that’s how it is. Do you think I’m a three-year-old child?!”
The lizard beast was frightened. He said, “Please listen to me. This child is a Mutated Wolf.”
The little boy’s body suddenly trembled, as if these four words had brought him great harm.
Mike looked at the little boy and said, “It’s okay. No one here can hurt you.”
Mike frowned and said, “Let’s go somewhere else, and then you can tell me these things.”
Mike used the great divine power of heaven and earth to make a ball that wrapped around the lizard beast. The lizard beast’s expression changed, and he said, “My Lord, I can’t breathe.”
Mike said, “Stop it. I know my ability. If you die of suffocation, then I would be disappointed at myself for failing to control my power. Don’t think about playing any tricks.”
The lizard beast was like a defeated rooster. It could not say a word.
Seeing this, Mike did not waste any more time. He summoned Eve and jumped onto her broad back.
When the lizard saw Eve, its eyes were wide open. It stuttered, “My lord, this is your summoned beast?”
The lizard looked at Eve’s broad back and said, “As expected of a dragon. If I could be the ultimate carrier of a giant dragon, what an honor it would be.”
Mike keenly caught the words ‘ultimate carrier’. He immediately asked, “What is an ultimate carrier?”
The lizard stammered, “Ultimate carrier is a summoner who uses the human body as the foundation and transplants a part of the summoned beast’s body.”.
Mike nodded, looking as if he had been taught a lesson.
He thought about it and gave up the idea of continuing to ask. In his opinion, transplanting a body to turn himself into a monster that was half human and half beast was not something that a normal person should do.
The lizard beast also heaved a sigh of relief. He did not dare to bear Mike’s question anymore.
Mike looked at an and said, “Do you want to tell me about yourself?”
Mike placed the three of them in a relatively flat place. He looked at Ann, and asked the lizard beast, “Now, you should explain to me what a Mutated Wolf means, right?”
The lizard beast thought to itself, ‘My Lord, you are already so busy. How can you still have the time to bother about other people’s affairs?’
However, the lizard beast only had the courage to think about it. He looked at Mike and said, “The Mutated Wolf is a publicly acknowledged ominous person. Legend has it that whoever kills him will obtain a trace of the Moon God’s power.”
Mike raised his eyebrows and asked, “Just because of this, all of his family members were killed?”
The lizard beast nodded.
Inexplicable anger rose in Mike’s heart. He could not help but raise his palm and hit the lizard beast, sending him flying to the other side of the sand dune.
Suddenly, Mike’s expression changed. At the end of his perception, a group of people was approaching quickly.
Mike could not be bothered to pick up the lizard beast. He brought Ann and sat on Eve as they ran into the distance.
Fifteen minutes later, the group looked at the lizard and asked, “Sand lizard, what’s wrong with you?”
This group of people were actually the lizard’s accomplices.
The sand lizard told the group of people about what had happened with a ferocious expression. The group were enraged faces changed drastically and they quickly chased after them.
Eve was unusually fast. In an instant, she had escaped the pursuit of the group of people. The group of people only chased for an hour before they could no longer sense Mike’s location. They could only return resentfully.
Mike stood on top of an extremely high sand dune. He looked at the crowd in the distance and frowned slightly.
Ann said from the side, “I know the way to the Northern Region.
