Chapter 391: Are You a Devil?

Gao Peng just hoped that he could take the fruit tree back completely. While looking at the introduction to the Ancient Dragonfish, Gao Peng paused to think for a while, then he suddenly had an idea.
After the Ancient Dragonfish had approached, Gao Peng ordered Goldie to use an Anti-Magic Field.
“Ohm.” An invisible ripple spread in all directions with Goldie as the center point. The element particles dissolved into little spots in the air. The waves under the Ancient Dragonfish split immediately after being touched by the invisible ripple, then vanished into thin air.
Snap!
The Ancient Dragonfish fell to the ground. Its eyes were as big as light bulbs, staring out as if it didn’t understand what had taken place yet.
Where did my waves go? Where did my water go? Dazed, the Ancient Dragonfish laid on the ground ignorantly, thinking about its life. This is such bad news. Why can I suddenly not control water…
The Ancient Dragonfish hadn’t experienced such loss and helplessness in over a dozen years. Glancing at Goldie who was 100 feet tall, the Ancient Dragonfish slammed its tail and hopped away.
Only after it was far away from Goldie did the Ancient Dragonfish realize that it could control water again.
The Ancient Dragonfish circled around doubtfully, but in the end, it didn’t choose to continue to chase them. Instead, it jumped into the water with a splash and disappeared.
Back at the Barren Maze, the White Steel Bladed Beast was surprised when it saw the Spatial Rift. It turned out that these people were from other worlds.
So that’s why… If they come from other worlds, then the fact that I lost to them isn’t as unacceptable.
Due to its size, Goldie couldn’t cross over the Spatial Rift at that moment, so Gao Peng let Goldie delay the healing time of the White Steel Bladed Monster’s injury. He only took the White Steel Bladed Monster back to Southern Sky in the end.
“What a pity….” The Desolate Frost Lion looked at the injured White Steel Bladed Beast with pity and curiosity at the same time. Gao Peng had already tortured it, but would he still tame this monster?
Right after he stepped out of the Spatial Rift, Gao Peng saw a group of people standing in front of it, getting ready to go into the Barren Maze.
There was even an acquaintance among them, his little assistant from the laboratory, Xu Qingzhi. Her collared white blouse and black hip skirt showed her curves perfectly. When she saw Gao Peng, she waved at him excitedly.
“Little boss, little boss.”
Gao Peng’s face darkened. What ‘little boss!’
“Wow, this familiar is so cute!” A petite girl with a round face in Xu Qingzhi’s team brightened her eyes, totally taken by the White Steel Bladed Beast.
The White Steel Bladed Beast that came from the Black Fog World obviously had different traits from the monsters on Earth. If monsters on Earth could be identified from traces of animals or insects before the Cataclysm, then monsters from the Black Fog World were species based on pure imagination.
The White Steel Bladed Beast consisted of layers of white steel enamel, and there were layers of blue patterns on the snow-white steel raft. This extremely beautiful pattern was scattered on the steel grain. The steel armor was superimposed like a beetle’s wings, with two sharp-edged blade limbs ejecting from the forelimbs.
Its golden eyes sparkled with streams of golden light, making it look holy and beautiful.
When moving at a high speed, green light would gush out from the crack of the steel armor. Gao Peng even found out that it didn’t have bones or internal organs; the inside of the steel armor was completely hollow.
The White Steel Bladed Beast wasn’t tall; its height was less than three feet, although, of course, the White Steel Bladed Beast insisted that it was three feet tall.
But things such as appearances weren’t important to Gao Peng. He never cared whether the appearance of his familiars was beautiful or handsome. One could easily tell this from how he had chosen a centipede, a spider, a skeleton, and a duck as his familiars…
But the White Steel Bladed Beast was quite effective on young girls. The snow-white steel armor shone in the sun, like snow in the mountains.
“There are no such monsters among all known monsters on Earth,” said a slim young man on the team with glasses softly. “And judging from the characteristics of existing Insect-type monsters, there’s a high possibility that this familiar came from the Black Fog World.”
“So this cute and small familiar is a familiar from the Black Fog World?” the round-faced girl’s eyes brightened.
“Dad, I want one of these familiars, too,” said the round-faced girl to a middle-aged man beside her.
Unable to bare his daughter’s request, the man finally acquiesced, “Okay, I’ll go and ask… But you must be in the top ten at the next school-organized exam, or I’ll take back your reward.”
The round-faced girl nodded happily.
The middle-aged man whispered a few words to several people on the team, then walked towards Gao Peng. “Hello Master Gao, I’ve heard your name for a long time! I am Wang Zhenming from Didu, and I would like to know whether this familiar was taken from the Black Fog World.” The middle-aged man walked with an imposing manner and spoke powerfully, indicating that he was probably from the military.
“It was hunted in the Black Fog World.” Gao Peng nodded.
“Then may I ask where you hunted it?” Wang Zhenming was a little embarrassed, as this question was a bit too presumptuous.
“That isn’t something I can’t tell. This monster was hunted at the Black Phoenix Mountain Range. After you go out from the Desolate Labyrinth, walk south for 620 miles, then you will reach the Black Phoenix Mountain Range. On the way, you will walk through Baimao Plain and the Land of 1,000 Streams.”
“Thanks a lot!” Wang Zhenming thanked Gao Peng with fervor.
“But the journey is a bit dangerous, and this White Steel Bladed Beast is a Lord-tier monster, so if you’re going to catch one, you need to be careful.” Gao Peng nodded to Wang Zhenming before turning around and leaving Wang Zhenming, who was somehow at a loss for words, behind.
Lord-tier monster? This thing that isn’t even three feet tall is actually a Lord-tier monster?! Wang Zhenming was shocked speechless.
Then he smiled wryly. It looks like I thought too much.
As he bid Gao Peng goodbye, he looked thoughtfully at Gao Peng’s back as he lamented the strength and potential of the youth in front of him.
“Dad, where do we catch the small white monster?” the round-faced girl asked her dad, excited.
Wang Zhenming smiled wryly. “That’s a Lord-tier monster. Your dad doesn’t have the ability to catch one.”
Lord-tier….
Most of the people became silent after they heard what Wang Zhenming said. While the people on Earth were working hard and putting their lives on the line for a Commander-tier familiar, someone had already gone on to catch Lord-tier monsters from other worlds. Maybe this was the difference between them and Gao Peng.
After Gao Peng was back at the Southern Sky Group, he planted the two Guise Fruit Trees in Amethyst Frozen Soil first. Then he poured in some nutrient solution and called the logistics department of the company to assign someone take care of these fruit trees and stated that the fruit trees had to live.
After he gave the instructions, Gao Peng took a Guise Fruit and rushed to the hill in the back.
Stripey had been anticipating this. However, upon hearing that he would dwindle in size after eating the fruit, he hesitated slightly. “Gao Peng, once I become smaller, can I still protect you…?”
“Relax, it’s all right. The only thing is that after you’ve eaten this, you simply cannot fight with other monsters. Otherwise, you’ll become big again,” Gao Peng comforted Stripey.
Stripey nodded continuously. “I’ll never fight!”
The White Steel Bladed Beast knelt on the ground, transfixed by the sight of Stripey, who looked as tall as a mountain. “Are you a devil?”
