Chapter 331 Ouroboros
These beast soul masters seemed to be looking for something. They searched everywhere in the biting cold wind of Taize Lake. Soon they left the lakeside and came to the center of the lake.
The farther away from the lakeside, the lower the temperature on Taize Lake became. Several beast soul masters were obviously unable to resist and summoned their martial souls to resist.
Boom boom...
The appearance of the martial soul seemed to have alarmed some unknown existence. The ice under the beast soul master's feet suddenly shook violently. Cracks covered the ice like a spider web. Through the cracks, one could see a huge circular shadow rising slowly from under the ice.
"Were you being chased by this thing?"
Bai Qi frowned slightly and wanted to take a closer look at the appearance of the ring, but the dream suddenly ended and Bai Qi returned to his original place.
"Why is it gone? Where are the subsequent dreams?"
Bai Qi looked at Cordyceps with some anticipation in his eyes.
It is said that Taize Lake has not always been covered with ice and frost all year round. It is also a huge lake that feeds countless lives. It is just that no one knows why it suddenly became what it is now.
Judging from the current situation, perhaps he could discover something with the help of the vision of these beast soul masters.
“No more.”
Chongcao shook his head and said, "They seem to have been frightened. The relevant memories have been suppressed by the slave contract. I can't detect them."
"Is that so? That's fine then."
Bai Qi nodded slightly. Because of what happened in Nile City a few days ago, Bai Qi specifically asked Luo Xiang about the beast soul master.
The reason why these beast soul masters were able to blend into the Federation without being discovered was that in addition to their excellent acting skills, the slave contract also played a very important role.
Whenever a beast soul master encounters some special situations, the contract will interfere, allowing him to remain calm and not reveal any flaws. If forced to investigate, the contract will even directly destroy the beast soul master's soul.
Judging from the current situation, the things in Taize Lake are definitely not ordinary, otherwise these beast soul masters would not be so panicked and even forget to hide their identities.
Bai Qi rubbed his chin, took out the task board and glanced at it, and sure enough, he found a ferocious beast living by the Taize Lake.
"It's on the way, let's go and take a look."
Bai Qi put away the task board. The pets also knew Bai Qi's idea. They quickly packed up the pots and pans and prepared to set off.
After eating and drinking, of course you need to exercise to aid digestion.
"Where are you going, Bai Qi?"
Seeing Bai Qi was about to leave, Wang Yun couldn't help but ask.
"Nothing, just continue to finish the homework assigned by the teacher."
Bai Qi turned over and rode on Delta, saying: "These beast soul masters can't wake up for the time being, so please send them to the nearby association. I have already contacted the association."
After saying that, Bai Qi disappeared from the spot without waiting for anyone to respond.
"This guy must be hiding something from us."
Wang Yun looked at Bai Qi thoughtfully as he went away. He wanted to follow him, but when he saw several beast soul masters beside him, he reluctantly gave up.
The issue of beast soul masters is quite sensitive, and they cannot be left here casually. If they are not handed over to the association as soon as possible, God knows what these people will do when they wake up.
"Forget it, let's go back to Langya City first."
Wang Yun made a decision quickly, and Master Li, who was already a little frightened, nodded repeatedly, agreeing with Wang Yun's opinion.
"That's right. I don't know if there are other beast soul masters active nearby. We should not run around."
"Well, let's send these guys back first."
Seeing this, Wu Yi sighed helplessly and agreed with the two people's opinions. Then he looked at the direction where Bai Qi disappeared with some reluctance.
It's only been a short time, but I already feel like I have to look up to this guy. Maybe the next time I meet him, he will have become the top combat force in the Federation?
I think I'm overthinking...
Wu Yi laughed at himself for a while, then summoned his pet beasts and took several beast soul masters with him, and headed back the way they came.
…
Taize Lake.
The ice claw crab fell limply to the ground, while the Cordyceps sinensis crawled out of the ice claw crab's brain with a satisfied look on its face.
"Chief, this Ice Claw Crab didn't seem to notice any changes, but it seemed to have seen those beast soul masters running through its territory, and it was a little panicked."
Bai Qi nodded when he heard this, and became more confused.
What they saw must have been something extraordinary to scare them like that. But if it was really some terrifying beast, it wouldn't have allowed those beast soul masters to escape.
"Shuke, did the scout bees find anything?"
Shuke shook his head and said, "We have found the place, but we haven't found anything unusual yet."
"Tsk...then we should go and check it out ourselves, Beta. Cheer up. If we find any problems, we will run away immediately."
Huh?
(In that case, why not just not go?)
Bang!
Before he finished speaking, Bai Qi punched Beta on the head and said, "You will still be hungry after eating, so why don't you just not eat?"
Aa ...
(I was wrong...)
Seeing the dangerous light in Bai Qi's eyes, Beta immediately gave in.
A wolf has to bow its head under the eaves. It was okay to have dog food in the past, but the food has finally improved recently. It would be a big loss if we can’t eat it.
The man and four pets continued to move forward, and the temperature around them gradually dropped, but Bai Qi and the others were not greatly affected.
"I didn't expect the sun wheel could have this effect. I don't have to be afraid of the cold anymore."
Bai Qi held the Cordyceps in his arms, and the cold wind around him was completely dispelled by the sunny effect of the sun, and he was not affected at all.
" We 're here."
Shuke, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped. Bai Qi looked up and discovered that the ice surface not far away was covered with spider-web-like fine cracks.
Huh?
(Such a big crack, could it be that some big fish came out from below?)
Beta curiously leaned forward and sniffed, but didn't find anything unusual. Jerry also didn't find anything after silently sensing it.
"I didn't detect any signs of powerful soul activity. Either those beast soul masters were mistaken, or there is some terrifying existence hidden underneath."
Hearing Jerry's words, Bai Qi frowned slightly.
These beast soul masters have been able to hide until now without being discovered, so they are obviously not stupid and the probability of them being wrong is low. So maybe there really is some powerful life form active down there.
"Shuke, contact the teacher first."
Bai Qi thought about it and decided not to take the risk.
Now that Alpha is not around, even with Jerry around, Bai Qi still feels insecure. After all, the thing below can really hide from Jerry's soul perception, and Jerry is most likely no match for it.
Ahhhh!
(Big fish is coming!)
At this moment, Beta suddenly cried out, and then the entire ice surface began to shake violently. The already fine cracks spread again and quickly spread to the surroundings.
"Damn it, run!"
Seeing this, Bai Qi immediately patted Delta under him, and Delta immediately transformed into a wind pterosaur and rose up with Bai Qi.
Just after the ice surface broke, a cold wind blew out from the cracks. Bai Qi suddenly felt his thoughts stagnate. When he came to his senses again, he suddenly found that he was about to fall to the ground.
In just a moment, both he and Delta had their minds frozen by the extremely cold wind?
Bai Qi's heart trembled, and Delta reacted immediately, allowing the cold wind to invade his body. He suddenly turned into a huge white bear and caught Bai Qi steadily.
Bloopers.
(Master, are you okay?)
Delta looked at Bai Qi in his arms with some concern . Bai Qi waved his hand and stared at the cracked ice surface not far away.
Through the ice surface with increasingly dense cracks, Bai Qi could vaguely see a ring slowly rising from below, which was basically the same as what he saw in the beast soul master's memory.
"Be prepared for battle. This may be the strongest enemy we have encountered so far."
Bai Qi's face was solemn. He had begun to contact Alpha through the contract. Gamma and other beasts also switched to combat status, watching the ring gradually rising under the ice with caution.
Finally, the ice broke and the ring finally revealed its true form.
The ring was gray all over, and the fine scales on its body sparkled with a strange light in the sun. It rose all the way to the sky along with the cold wind. From a distance, it seemed as if the sun above was surrounded by it.
Bai Qi looked carefully and realized that it was not a ring at all, but a small gray snake with a tail sticking out.
"Be careful, I can't see into its soul."
Jerry looked solemn and was ready for a big fight.
This was the first time it encountered a situation where it could not see the souls of other creatures. Even when it saw legendary creatures such as the Nine Nether Bird that day, it could still feel the other party's powerful soul.
But he didn't feel any soul from the little gray snake in front of him, but he could feel a special breath, which made him unable to regard this little gray snake as an ordinary snake.
After all, ordinary snakes cannot survive in such cold winds.
Perhaps it sensed the presence of Bai Qi and the others, the little gray snake gradually woke up, opened its mouth, revealing a sharp tail like a pointer, slowly turned its head, and its deep snake eyes silently looked at Bai Qi and the others below.
"You are the ones who disturbed my sleep?"
The little gray snake suddenly spoke, and Jerry, Gamma and other beasts became more vigilant, ready to take action at any time.
Except for mechanical creatures like Shuke or special beings like Cordyceps and Jerry who can speak directly in their souls, most pets have to become legendary creatures before they can speak.
This seemingly inconspicuous little snake in front of me, judging from the way it speaks, should be an old monster that has survived for many years.
Faced with such an existence, cautious Jerry did not want to act rashly.
"Is there such a creature hiding under Taize Lake?"
Bai Qi gritted his teeth and immediately sped up the preparations to summon Alpha, while praying that his teacher would come quickly.
Seeing that Bai Qi and his companions had no intention of retreating, a strange light flashed in the Ouroboros' vertical pupils, and it slowly swam towards Bai Qi. As the Ouroboros got closer, the strange feeling became more and more intense, making Bai Qi's nerves more and more tense.
Finally, the Ouroboros came in front of Bai Qi, raised its head and looked at Bai Qi silently. After a long time, it slowly opened its mouth, as if it wanted to say something.
lie!
At this moment, Beta suddenly slapped the Ouroboros with its claws, and the Ouroboros seemed to have no time to react and was knocked to the ground.
Suddenly, the cold wind stopped and the scene was silent. Only the confused Ouroboros and the curious Husky stared at each other.
