422 Handover
Four Tail Monkey was trapped by Lin Xuan’s lightning. Its entire body was covered in the power of lightning, and it could not release any power at all. Furthermore, there was also soul lightning flashing making it difficult for it to concentrate on trying to contact the rest. It had to spend a lot of effort just to think, let alone to contact the other tailed beasts.
Lin Xuan dragged the tailed beast all the way back to Muxia Village immediately. He was afraid that an earth-rank ninja would jump out and kill him. He had given his all in the battle with the Four Tail Monkey, and the lightning power that bound the Four Tail Monkey had to be maintained constantly. He was in a very bad condition now, and he would not be able to handle any more earth-rank fighters.
Fortunately, the journey was very smooth, and they did not encounter any other earth-rank ninjas. This was actually very normal, because most of the earth-rank ninjas had their eyes on the battlefield. Even if Lin Xuan and Four Tail Monkey caused a huge commotion, it would be covered up by the intense battle between the dozens of earth-rank ninja and would not be noticeable.
The other eight tailed beasts were a little uneasy. They had not been able to contact Four Tail Monkey for a long time. Did something really happen to Four Tail Monkey?
They were not very concerned about the other tailed beasts, but they were afraid that Muxia Village would really develop the method of producing human pillar strength. Once Muxia really masters the method of producing human pillar strength, the other tailed beasts would have no choice but to escape, or else what awaited them would be a seal that would never come out!
They had experienced those dark days and they did not want to go back. Without freedom and light, the energy that they cultivated on their own would be used as an endless source of energy for the human pillars. It was like a large battery without consciousness, the kind that could charge itself forever. It was terrifying.
‘Are you dead?’
‘If you’re captured, just self-destruct. Don’t be an experimental subject!’
‘Say something. You have to fight! Don’t be a coward!
‘Sacrifice yourself for the eight of us. Hurry up and self-destruct!’
…
Lin Xuan naturally did not know that the other tailed beasts were encouraging Four Tail Monkeys to self-destruct. If he knew, he would increase the output of energy so that the Four Tail Monkey would be unable to move.
In the Mission Hall of Muxia Village, several staff members from the Science Academy came to hand over the tailed beast. They looked greedily at the Four Tail Monkey that was bound by the thunder chains, and the desire and surprise in their eyes made Lin Xuan shudder. As expected, these researchers were all crazy!
“I’ll hand it over when you confirm that my tail beast capture mission is complete!”
Lin Xuan said to the staff of the Science Academy without holding back. Although he had endless energy, it still took a lot of mental and physical energy to maintain the energy and turn it into many spells to bound the monkey. Lin Xuan had already experienced several major battles in a row and was almost at his limit.
“Alright, alright. You’ve caught a four-tailed beast. Among the tailed beasts, it’s ranked fifth in strength and energy level, and its attribute is lava… Alright, I’ve already reported it. Next, you can put it into our specially made container.”
Soon, the staff of the Science Academy pushed a huge, specially made iron cage over and took out a large pile of roasted chains to put on the Four Tail Monkey. The energy in Four Tail Monkey’s body was constantly absorbed by them and then charged into the energy stone…
Technology has advanced! Just this technology of absorbing the power of the tailed beasts alone could obtain a lot of energy, and they were converted into pure energy stones. This could be a considerable amount of extra income!
The energy in Four Tail Monkey’s body was sucked dry, and Lin Xuan waved his hand to dispel the power of the lightning around it. The staff then swarmed forward and put a helmet on Four Tail Monkey. It contained strong electromagnetic waves, causing Four Tail Monkey to be in a state of chaos at all times.
This was really ruthless!
“Then, the mission target has been handed over. We’re even!”
“Mm, as is!”
Lin Xuan confirmed that the mission had been handed over and that any accidents that happened after that had nothing to do with him. He then asked curiously, “Are you guys planning to destroy the tail beast’s soul directly and then install a blank consciousness?”
“That’s one way to go, but it depends on the situation of the tailed beast. You’re quite strong, and you seem quite interested in this. Do you have any thoughts of working part-time at our Science Academy? You might have the chance to participate in experiments!”
A staff member of the Science Academy said to Lin Xuan with a smile.
“I’d rather work on my own strength.”
Lin Xuan shook his head and rejected.
They didn’t say anything more. A group of staff members pulled the cart with Four Tail Monkey away. To them, the real work had just begun.
As he watched the group of people leave, Lin Xuan slumped onto the wooden chair as if he had just completed a major mission. He was both mentally and physically exhausted and wanted to have a good sleep. Well, basically, everything he had to do was done. There was nothing else to do, so he could finally return to Taixia now.
However, just before Lin Xuan was about to leave, the person in charge of Muxia Village came over. He looked at Lin Xuan with joy and said, “Hello, I’m Qianhai, the person in charge of the nine beasts chaotic world instance dungeon. It’s a pleasure to meet you!”
“Is there anything I can help you with?”
“It’s nothing, it’s just… Is it true that you caught a tail beast?”
“Yeah. The Four Tail Monkey. The below average strength it had was not worth mentioning.”
Qianhai smacked his lips. Lin Xuan was obviously showing off. Even with his strength at the middle-level earth-rank, he might not be able to catch a tail beast ever. However, it did not matter. He walked the path of management, so it did not matter if his combat power was weak. Furthermore, Lin Xuan had killed the slug and caught Four Tail Monkey. This was definitely good news for Muxia. To him, it was an achievement, the kind that could be exchanged for cultivation resources.
Seeing that Lin Xuan was very tired, he did not disturb him too much. He only congratulated Lin Xuan.
After dealing with it perfunctorily, Lin Xuan directly chose to return to Taixia!
[You have left the world dungeon.]
[Your personal contribution to the world dungeon is 846,221 with an addition of 742,579 new points. It has been recorded.]
[You have obtained a world dungeon entry permit (only available in this world), celestial body (advanced), natural energy cultivation notes, wood evasion card, spiritual beast-slug, eternal kaleidoscope (one pair), and lava chakra seed.]
…
Even a person as bold and powerful as Lin Xuan could not help but exclaim how awesome these rewards were when he saw them. The rewards given by the world instance dungeon for killing a slug and the Wheel Crow King were extremely generous. The body of a high-level immortal and the kaleidoscope eye were both extremely precious rewards.
He had to think carefully about how to arrange it. Obviously, now was not the time to think.
He went back to the Ability User Guild and had a good night’s sleep. Everything else could wait until he woke up!
