Chapter 300: Mission Against the Beast God Cult

Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL

“Actually, the reason is very simple. The core of your temporary operation team is Lugh,” Bania said in a low voice, “This mission requires you to try your best to keep the Beast God Cult outside the Southwest Region. You need to dig out the disciples of the Beast God Cult who have infiltrated the Southwest Region and uproot them. The key of your mission is to find the other party, not to fight.”

“And in the entire Emergency Response Team, the one with the strongest resistance to the spirit system abilities and the one who is best at tracking down the members of the Beast God Cult is still Lugh… The entire operation team actually revolves around Lugh to cooperate.”

Bania asked seriously, “Charles, do you understand now?”

“I understand.” Charles responded and asked again, “Is Lugh’s tracking ability really that strong?”

Bania glanced at Lugh. “Very strong. His comprehensive tracking ability should be at the top level of the Illumination Empire Federation. Other than him, our Southwest Military Department can’t find anyone more suitable.”

After Lugh joined Skylight City, every mission in the Emergency Response Team was recorded.

The military department could roughly calculate how strong Lugh’s tracking ability was.

Charles nodded. “Then there won’t be any problems.”

Bania continued, “Let me tell you first. If your team really encounters an unstoppable danger, you have to ensure Lugh’s safety first and cover his retreat first.”

Charles nodded. “Understood, no problem.”

Lugh looked at Bania, feeling a little incredulous.

These words made him feel a little embarrassed.

Wasn’t this treatment too good?

Turner, Daler, Charles, and Gaden were a little dissatisfied when they heard Bania’s order. Their expressions were a little surprised and dissatisfied.

But when they looked at Lugh now, they seemed to have understood something.

Bania said in a low voice, “This is an order from the military, understand?”

“Understood.”

“Lugh, don’t feel burdened. This is a unanimous decision from the higher-ups.”

Bania turned to look at Lugh. “As long as you don’t meet a King-level powerhouse, Turner and the others will be able to guarantee your safety. Your ability is very important to our Southwest Army.”

Lugh said seriously, “I will do my best.”

“Just do your best.”

Bania was clear about Lugh’s style of doing things.

He didn’t like to be full of words.

If Lugh said that he would do his best, then it would be equivalent to risking his life.

“If the heavens want to kill us, they will first make us crazy.” Bania took a deep breath of smoke and slowly said, “The Beast God Cult won’t be rampant for too long. The Headquarters have already noticed them. You will only need half a year at most. When the Headquarters is free, we need to stabilize things before that.”

“Yes!”

“Lugh, take these documents.” Bania handed Lugh a file, “On it are the Platinum-tier Beast Masters you captured in Blue Star City. He also knows a portion of the Beast God Cult’s disciples who are hiding in the Southwest. Our people have already deciphered the appearance of those disciples. When the time comes, you can capture them according to this.”

“Yes, Captain.”

Lugh glanced at the information in the document. They were all flower portraits.

The painter was extremely good at drawing. The portraits were just like photographs.

On the back of the portraits was other information about the person.

“Also, although you’re mainly in charge of resisting the infiltration of the Beast God Cult, if the northern cities fall into chaos, we’ll need your support.”

Lugh and the others could understand all of this.

The 14 teams under the Emergency Response Team would occasionally be stationed in other cities.

They were afraid that the Emergency Response Team would not arrive in time if the cities were in danger.

“The departure time will be arranged in three days. You can take advantage of these three days to make good preparations, or exchange ideas and get familiar with each other.”

“Yes, Captain.”

After the meeting, the four of them left the military and agreed to meet up with the 14th Emergency Response Team tomorrow.

When they returned to the office, even Lugh felt a wave of pressure.

[Ding! Mission announcement: Annihilate the disciples of the Beast God Cult, help the Southwest Military to resist the large-scale infiltration from the Beast God Cult, and stabilize the situation in the Southwest.]

[Ding! At the end of the mission, the system will rate the host’s mission completion status.]

[Mission rating: Unqualified, Qualified, Good, Excellent, and Perfect.]

[Ding! Mission reward: Assign a pet to comprehend a large-scale enhancement skill. The higher the mission completion rating, the stronger the pet will comprehend the skill.]

Seeing the system reward, Lugh was a little surprised.

Large-scale enhancement skills were very rare.

Lugh had never seen them before.

He had only read about them in the books.

Fierce Beasts could be divided into groups and living alone.

Amongst the beasts that lived in groups, there would usually be a leader.

This leader had the authority to command this group of beasts.

For example, the Black-Gold Armored Spider, the Rock Armored Rhinoceros herd, and the Magic Gold Hunting Wolf herd.

However, in the beast world, there would occasionally be some extremely talented and ambitious beasts.

Not only would they be able to fight for leadership in their own species, they would even conquer other types of beasts and become the kings of different types of beasts.

On the human side, these types of beasts were often called Beast Kings and Beast Emperors.

In history, every Beast King and Beast Emperor that appeared was accompanied by a storm of blood between beasts and humans.

King-level beasts and Emperor-level beasts were only a measure of strength.

As for Beast Emperors, Beast Kings were a description of their status.

The system intended to reward Lugh with a large area-of-effect skill, but most of it appeared on the Beast Kings and Beast Emperors in history.

This kind of skill couldn’t be weak in a one-on-one fight.

However, once it was used together with a large-scale army, it could greatly improve their overall combat standards.

If they used it well, they could even turn the situation around.

Lugh was not alone. He still had hundreds of elite subordinates.

If he could obtain a similar skill, he could raise the strength of the team to another level.

Moreover, even if he was alone, this skill was still very useful to him.

After all, he still had several pet beasts.

Three days passed very quickly. At eight o’clock in the morning, Lugh brought more than fifty members of the 14th emergency team to the train station.

Today’s train station was very quiet.

There were almost no passengers.

Only more than ten station staff were seriously cleaning.

Although Skylight City was the central city of the Southwest, there were not worm trains every day.

Because the military attached great importance to the mission, they did not need to wait for the train at all.

Gaden’s worm train had already been assembled yesterday and was waiting at the station.

The 14th emergency team had just arrived at the station when the crew members arranged for the members of the team to board the train.

Lugh brought Lucy directly onto the first carriage.

In the first carriage, it was very spacious and there was a large round table.

There were a lot of fruits on the round table. Two beautiful ladies from the crew were standing at the side, waiting for orders.

Turner, Daler, Charles, and Gaden were all sitting in their chairs. When they saw Lugh come in, they greeted him.

After the last meeting, Lugh had gathered with three Star Glory Beast Masters, and they could be considered to be on good terms with each other.

The only one who was absent at that time was still Gaden.

As the logistics manager, his work began after the meeting ended.

The three Star Glory Beast Masters were all handpicked by Bania.

Apart from having Star Glory class pets, they wouldn’t be at a disadvantage when fighting against the experts of the Beast God Cult. They were also Bania’s trusted aides.

Everyone knew the importance of this mission.

After the members of the emergency team were all on the train, the worm train began to run on the tracks with its short legs. The people on the train began to feel the bumps.

Turner laughed and said, “Gaden, your Troll Worm train’s territory is not stable. It’s a little bumpy when you run.”

Gaden said helplessly, “Brother Turner, don’t tease me. Troll Worms are all like this. This one of mine is already very stable unless we lower the speed.”

“Then forget it. We’re in a hurry.” Turner shook his head and said somewhat wistfully, “Speaking of which, it’s been many years since I’ve sat on this kind of worm train.”

Lugh also said, “Speaking of which, the last time I came to Skylight City, I sat on this Troll Worm.”

Gaden said in surprise, “Really?”

“Of course it’s true.”
