Chapter 84: I Was an Ancient Emperor in My Previous Life! 1
Today, the morning in Anping County seemed exceptionally fresh.
Xu Hu raised his head to take a look. He had been working hard all night and was drenched in sweat. Suddenly, he felt a little relaxed.
“The sun this morning feels extra comfortable,” Xu Hu sighed. “The dark fog hasn’t dispersed, but the sunlight is just right.”
He looked at the dark fog in the distance.
For some reason, he felt that it had somehow dispersed a lot.
“Xu Hu, Commander Lin is here!” In the distance, a colleague shouted.
Xu Hu hurriedly walked over and a shadow suddenly appeared. The huge blazing sky falcon descended.
Lin Rou walked down from her pet with a frosty face.
She was accompanied by a man and a woman.
The two of them were wearing windbreakers and sunglasses that covered most of their faces so that no one could their expressions. Their auras were heavy and no one knew where they came from.
“What’s going on?” Lin Rou hurried over and looked at the dark fog in the distance, her expression extremely grave.
Xu Hu gave a brief account of what had happened last night.
“You let Wang Ye go in alone to investigate?” Lin Rou’s voice immediately became louder.
“He was the one who requested to do so himself,” Xu Hu hurriedly said, “In addition, his green sparrow’s strength is very abnormal. It was able to instantly kill those low-level strange gods. We saw it with our own eyes. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have let him go in alone.”
“Instantly kill?” Lin Rou was stunned. She didn’t dare to believe it, “A level 2 pet can instantly kill low-level strange gods? Were they in small numbers?”
“A lot...”
“It should be some sort of characteristic related to strange gods,” The man behind her walked up. He had a full beard and sunglasses. His skin was bronze, and he wore a dark-colored windbreaker. His two-meter-tall body gave off an extremely oppressive feeling, “Based on his performance in the Yihuang Forest and his pet with the new evolved form, it is possible for him to do this.”
“And then?” Lin Rou continued to ask, “Is he out yet?”
“No,” Xu Hu shook his head, “But not long ago, the dark fog stopped spreading and began to dissipate. The situation is under control now, and most of the people nearby have been evacuated. There were no casualties. None of the strange gods inside have come out either.”
“Stopped spreading? Dissipated?” The man in the windbreaker was stunned, “Impossible! How did it dissipate?”
“I don’t know either,” Xu Hu thought for a moment, “Previously, we sent a bunch of investigators into the dark fog, but they seemed to have sensed a very strong energy fluctuation. The space inside seemed to be compressed as if it was enduring a high-intensity pressure. We had no choice but to come out first.”
“The dispersal means that the dark fog is about to recede...” The man in the windbreaker said in a low voice, “This is strange. It doesn’t seem to be what you saw.”
He turned around and looked at the woman in the windbreaker.
“These two are?” Xu Hu glanced at Lin Rou and asked tentatively.
“Chen He and Xia Wange, dark fog scholars sent by the organization,” Lin Rou gave a simple introduction.
Xu Hu immediately felt a sense of respect.
Dark fog scholars were a very unique class among Beastmasters.
Among Beastmasters, there were many different classes. The most common were the fighters who were good at combat, the aides who were good at support, the warlocks who were good at control, the tyrants who were good at AOE attacks and controlling the weather, as well as the mecha-masters who were good at machinery control, and so on.
The assessment for each class was different.
In the national examination of the Beastmaster classes, some were very special, and the assessments for those were extremely difficult.
It was almost impossible for ordinary Beastmasters to come into contact with those.
One of them was the dark fog scholar.
Xu Hu had only heard of this class. It was said that only a very small number of people in the country could pass the assessment.
In society, it was almost impossible to see an unaffiliated Beastmaster with such a class.
A dark fog scholar needed to have extremely high combat strength, an extremely strong spiritual talent, and a deep understanding of the dark fog, as well as extraordinary Beastmaster abilities.
The class required the Beastmaster to be all-rounded.
“The dark fog has already erupted,” The woman in the windbreaker said in a low voice, “This means that our investigation into Mingguang Enterprise is wrong. Our attention has been diverted. There’s a high chance that that fellow is hiding in the Investigation Corps of Anping County. Moreover, logically speaking, once the dark fog erupts, it means that the fellow has already opened the door to the dark fog. The dark fog won’t dissipate for no reason... Judging from the current situation, it seems that the door to the dark fog has been destroyed. This means that the fellow may have been killed.”
“There’s such an expert in Anping County?” The man in the windbreaker said in surprise, “Wait, did you guys notice any investigators with weird behavior last night?”
He looked at Xu Hu.
“Strange?” Xu Hu frowned slightly, “Except for Wang Ye who asked to go in and investigate alone... Oh, right. Not long after Wang Ye went in, Instructor Tang also went in. He said that he wanted to go in to look for Wang Ye. There wasn’t anything strange about the others...”
“Instructor Tang? Tang Xiong?” Chen He looked at Xia Wange.
Xia Wange closed her eyes. There seemed to be countless dots connecting in the void, and countless images flashed one after another.
At this time, a crown-like mechanical pet with wings appeared above her head, glowing slightly.
The images seemed to be flashing even faster.
After a moment, the images stopped.
“There’s nothing special about his records,” Xia Wange said in a low voice, “He’s a comrade of Wang Ye’s parents. According to his description back then, Wang Ye’s parents died in the demonic disaster, but he survived out of luck. He took good care of Wang Ye, and he went in to look for the boy because he was worried about his safety. It’s human nature. There’s nothing strange.”
“Wait, now that the dark fog has erupted, the only one who obtained the soul fire is Tang Quan,” Chen He whispered, “Tang Quan is from the Tang Family of Qixing City. Can’t you find any records? Could they be related to Tang Xiong?”
