Chapter 216: Shocking Talent

“John, help Lugh settle down.”

“Okay.”

John arranged a room for Lugh. The living environment here was obviously much better than that of Seven Star City’s Reclamation Unit.

Everyone had a single room and a toilet. They ate in the cafeteria, which was a bit like a guest house.

John said, “If you need anything else, you can tell me. Our Emergency Response Team’s treatment is the best in the entire Southwest.”

“That’s about it.”

“That’s good,” John said. “I’ll introduce you to the others.”

John came to the small square where the 7th Team was stationed. There were seven or eight Beast Masters chatting in the small square, with three Gold-Grade pet beasts beside them, lying on the ground, leisurely basking in the sun.

John blew his whistle. The Beast Masters who were chatting hurriedly put away their pet beasts and stood in the middle of the small square.

Soon, more than forty Beast Masters walked out of their rooms.

John explained, “Our 7th Team has seventy-eight members now. Including you, we have seventy-nine members. Some of them are on missions. We lost some of our men in the battle last time.”

“I understand.”

Lugh’s mood was a little heavy.

The people they lost were definitely Gold-Grade Beast Masters.

After the members of the 7th Team gathered, John introduced Lugh to everyone. “This is the new member of our 7th Team, Lugh.”

The members of the 7th Team looked at Lugh curiously.

After all, he looked really young.

John smiled and said, “Don’t underestimate Lugh just because he’s young. He’s the champion of this year’s Southwest City-State Young Beast Master Genius Tournament.”

The gazes of the members of the 7th Team immediately changed.

The champion of the Southwest City-State Young Beast Master Genius Tournament, which was held once every three years, not only represented Lugh’s talent, but also his current strength.

“Lugh, why don’t you introduce yourself as well? Mainly introduce your specialties. This will be very important to your cooperation in future battles.”

“Alright.”

Lugh stood on the stage and said briefly, “My name is Lugh. I’m a Gold-Grade Beast Master from Seven Star City in the Southwest. I’m good at sight tracking and olfactory tracking.”

When Lugh said that he was good at sight tracking and olfactory tracking, the members of the 7th Team looked at him seriously.

There was nothing they could do about it. Auxiliary skills like sight tracking and olfactory tracking were very important when carrying out missions.

This allowed them to avoid danger in time and effectively chase after the target of the mission.

Not every time the thirteen teams of the Emergency Response Team went on a mission, a team of nearly a hundred Beast Masters would be sent out together.

Sometimes, the mission was simple and the danger level wasn’t high. They would be flexible enough to send out ten people or an empty team to carry out the mission.

At that time, the captain of the Emergency Response Team would try his best to arrange for a Beast Master who was good at scouting.

All the Gold-Grade Beast Masters present knew very well that as the top genius of the Southwest, Lugh must be quite proud of himself.

Since he dared to say that he was good at sight scouting and smell tracking, his sight scouting and smell tracking abilities wouldn’t be too weak.

Beast Masters like Lugh, who was good at both fighting and scouting, were very popular wherever they went.

Even John looked at Lugh, feeling as if his team had picked up a treasure.

In fact, Lugh still held back.

He didn’t reveal his strongest Mythical-Grade talent, Crisis Sensing.

He still felt that it was better not to spread this ability.

What if a human targeted him?

Even if he did not mention it, when he joined the squad in the future to carry out missions, he could definitely warn the members of the squad when they encountered danger.

It would not be a problem.

At this moment, someone said, “Lugh, can you let us test your vision detection and smell tracking ability? Let us have an idea.”

Everyone turned around and saw the team leader, Elisa, standing beside the square.

“Sure.”

Elisa said to the members of the 7th Team, “You guys go and disband first.”

Very soon, Elisa arranged for a specialist to check Lugh’s two great abilities.

The data after the check shocked both Elisa and John.

The detection ability was classified into Third Class, Second Class, First Class, and Special Class.

Third Class referred to the Divine Beast that was born with a keen sense of smell but did not have a talent for smells.

Second Class referred to the Divine Beast that was born with a keen sense of smell and had a normal grade talent for smells.

Although Skylight City did not know what the Normal, Rare, Peerless, and Mythical-Grade were, after hundreds of years of trial and error, they had also come up with a set of evaluation criteria that belonged to them.

Lugh’s Berserk Bear had a Rare-grade sniffing talent, and its sniffing tracking ability was rated as First Class.

Lugh’s Stormhawk had a Peerless vision talent, and its sight detection ability was rated as Special Class.

“How is it? Are my two scouting abilities okay?”

Elisa took a deep breath. “In the entire Skylight City, there are less than thirty pet beasts that can be rated as First Class with their sniffing tracking ability.”

“That’s quite a lot.”

Although Rare-Grade talent was rare, the Southwest Region was huge. The Skylight City Dojo had attracted countless excellent Beast Masters from the Southwest Region, so it wasn’t surprising that twenty pet beasts with Rare-Grade talent in sense of smell had appeared.

“But in the entire Skylight City, there’s not a single Divine Beast that can be rated as Special Class with its sense of smell tracking ability.”

Hearing Elisa’s words, Lugh seemed to have understood something!

“That Storm Eagle’s vision talent…”

“Ten years ago, our Emergency Response Team also had a pet that had the ability to see and track. It was rated as a Special Class pet, but during a mission, it was killed.”

Elisa looked at Lugh and said, “Now, your Stormhawk is the only pet in Skylight City that has the ability to see and track. You have to protect it well. It’s very important.”

Elisa’s tone was very serious, as if the Stormhawk was a rare treasure.

However, Lugh also admitted that a peerless vision talent was indeed very precious.

But did the Stormhawk really need his protection?

In terms of escape, the Stormhawk with the Mythical-Grade talent Dark Night Meteor and Sword Wings was definitely at the top of its class.

“I understand. I’ll protect it well.”

“Okay, you go and rest,” Elisa said with a smile. “If you need anything, just tell John. As long as it’s not against the rules, he can get it for you.”

After Lugh left, the smile on Elisa’s cold face did not disappear.

She looked at Lugh’s ability testing list and said with a smile, “You didn’t expect that the Captain would actually send a treasure to our 7th Team.”

John whispered, “I reckon the Head Captain doesn’t know about Lugh’s ability either.”

“So what if he knows? Once he enters our 7th Team, he can’t run anymore.”

Lugh left the Head Captain’s office. Just as he walked to the small square, a Beast Master from the 7th Team waved at him.

“Lugh, what’s the test result?”

The seven Beast Masters present looked at him with smiles.

Lugh smiled and said, “Pretty good.”

“Welcome to our 7th Team. My name is Bruce. You just joined our 7th Team. If you have any questions, you can ask me!”

“That’s perfect. I want to ask, can we usually leave the military camp?”

Bruce asked, “Is something the matter?”

“I want to go out and hunt Fierce Beasts. I recently signed a new divine pet, and its strength is still very low. I want to take it out to fight and improve its strength.”

“Of course, our Emergency Response Team doesn’t have missions every day. We also have to go out to hunt Fierce Beasts to improve our strength.”

Bruce said, “But when we go out, we need to report to the Captain. We need to tell them where we are going. We also need to put a locator on our bodies, in case we can’t find people when we need to go out on missions.”

Put a locator on?

This management was much stricter than the Reclamation Unit.

Lugh felt a little awkward, but he was relieved after imagining it.

Anyway, he was hunting Fierce Beasts, so he didn’t do anything that couldn’t be seen.

“Then I’ll go to John and face the Fierce Beasts over there.”

“I’ll go with you.” Bruce smiled and said, “After resting for two days, I also want to go outside to exercise my muscles and bones. I’ll take you to understand the situation around Skylight City.”

“That won’t be a problem.”

Bruce brought Lugh to see John. John only told Lugh to pay attention to his safety and asked Bruce to take good care of Lugh before letting him go.
