Chapter 296 Outpost No. 9


Chapter 296 Outpost No. 9

When the officer on duty heard that Li Qian and the others came to see one of his immediate superiors, he asked in a rather respectful manner: "I wonder what you call them?"

"My name is Li Qian, a junior of Tie Lao. This is Irina, Tie Lao's student. The last one..." At this point, Li Qian suddenly paused, and then a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Radian, "He can be considered an acquaintance of Tie Lao!"

He did not directly reveal the identity of Teacher Han Ke. In addition to wanting to surprise Tie Lao, he also wanted to see his reaction.

The guard on duty took note of the identities of the three people, mainly Li Qian and Irina, and then returned to the guard room to contact them.

It didn't take long for him to return to the gate and said, "I'm sorry, Deputy Iron Envoy is not in the gate."

"Then where did he go?" Li Qian asked immediately.

The officer on duty replied: "Going to patrol Outpost No. 9."

Li Qian had also heard of outposts, which were specially set up by major cities in the dimensional plane to monitor some special locations.

It can also be said to be a warning station.

For example, in some places, extremely powerful extraordinary creatures lurk. Although they don't show much aggression, they have to be guarded against.

For another example, in some places, the space nodes are weak and unstable cracks often appear. Do you want to take precautions?

These special situations are within the observation scope of the outpost.

"Excuse me, Outpost No. 9..."

Li Qian was about to continue asking, but at this moment, Irina suddenly interrupted, "Let's go, I know where it is?"

Since Tie Lao was not in the guard mansion, Li Qian and the others had no intention of entering, and they turned back.

At the moment they turned around and returned, in the guard mansion and the beast control tower, a middle-aged square-faced man who looked to be about forty years old suddenly said quietly, "Old man, you can't hide."

"And there is no point in hiding some things. They have to be faced and solved..."

After murmuring something, he closed his eyes again and continued to sit cross-legged, his whole body like a log.

At the same time, on the other side, in a simple town about a hundred kilometers away from Feihe City, Tie Lao stood on the town's city wall, frowning.

Ahead, dust and smoke billowed, covering an area. His eyesight was astonishing, and he could clearly see beasts in the dust and smoke, running back and forth, as if they were tireless.

Tie Lao stared closely at the shadow of the beast in the dust and smoke. It was a group of one-horned rhinos. He didn't know what they were doing. They had been entrenched in the area in front of them for several days.

In the past few days, he had been nervous, fearing that these abnormally excited one-horned rhinos would suddenly go crazy and attack Outpost No. 9.

This is said to be an outpost, but in fact, in terms of scale, it is no longer just a station, but more like a small town. Not only are there human beast masters who live here stably all year round, but also a number of human beast masters entering and exiting the Swamp of Despair. Important supply point.

If they were collided by this group of one-horned rhinos, this outpost might be destroyed.

For the human beast master, this is definitely a great loss. The reason why he has been sitting here these days is to prevent this kind of thing from happening.

Moreover, there were quite a lot of one-horned rhinos in the dust and smoke, and there were even one-horned tyrannosaurs that had reached the overlord level. If they really attacked the outpost, Tie Lao didn't think he could handle it on his own.

Just as Tie Lao was observing anxiously and hurriedly, the situation suddenly took a turn for the worse. In the dust and smoke, a group of one-horned rhinos rushed over like crazy.

Their target direction is clearly Outpost No. 9.

"I'm really afraid of what will happen!" Tie Lao saw this scene from a distance and couldn't help but complain. Without hesitation, he directly summoned one of his pet beasts - the Wind and Thunder Lion.

In this situation, a frontal attacking beast like the Wind and Thunder Lion is most suitable.

Jin Zhubeilei is not around, and positioning is just a auxiliary. Even if it is released, the effect will be limited.

As for the Purgatory Viper, it is too small and suitable for launching surprise attacks and large-scale team battles, which are not its areas of expertise.

Finally, there is the four-winged mantis. After all, it is Tie Lao's trump card, and he has no immediate plans to use it.

He frowned in thought, looking at the wind and thunder lions who had already fought with the one-horned rhino group, his eyes full of doubts.

I don't understand why this group of one-horned rhinos suddenly went crazy and attacked Outpost No. 9.

Just when the Wind and Thunder Lions and the One-Horned Rhinoceros were fighting together, and the battle was in a stalemate, a lion's roar also appeared in the sky!
"Ho ho ho ho..."

"That's... the Thunder Griffin!" Looking at the pet beast that suddenly appeared on the horizon from far away, Tie Lao recognized its identity immediately.

Then, his face showed a deep, astonished expression.

The Thunder Griffin and the Wind Thunder Lion are both evolved from the Electric Lion, but the evolution routes are different.

The potential difference between the two is almost the same, and it is impossible to say who is higher and who is lower, so his shock is not essentially due to the appearance of the Thunder Griffin, but the person riding on the back of the Thunder Griffin.

Three people who surprised him very much.

Li Qian, Irina, and the person he wanted to see but was afraid of seeing... Han Ke!
"Ho ho ho ho..."

The Thunder Griffin fell directly onto the city wall of Outpost No. 9. Then, under Irina's order, it joined the battle and began to assist the Thunder Lion in dealing with the group of one-horned rhinoceros that had problems.

"Tie Lao, what's going on?" After landing, Li Qian immediately walked to Tie Lao's side. He didn't have time to say anything, so he asked directly.

Tie Lao looked at Li Qian with a wry smile on his face, "I don't know either."

If he knew the reason, he wouldn't have to be so passive.

Now, he only hoped that the one-horned tyrannosaurs further away would not get involved, otherwise the situation would be completely out of control.

It was only a matter of time before Outpost No. 9 fell.

"This group of one-horned rhinos is not normal..." Irina's eyesight was so amazing that she found something abnormal with just a simple glance.

"Actually, this group of one-horned rhinoceros has always lived not far from Outpost No. 9. However, they are usually gentle and will not actively attack human beast masters, let alone directly collide with the outpost." Tie Lao continued to explain.

Li Qian was quite confused after hearing this explanation.

He also had a certain understanding of the one-horned rhinoceros. It was a relatively gentle pet animal. Logically speaking, it was unlikely that this situation would occur.

When he was puzzled, he didn't care about giving Tie Lao any surprises and started thinking directly.

Both Teacher Han Ke and Irina calmed down their thoughts for the time being and focused on the crisis in front of them.
