Chapter 50 - 44 Necromancy_1

"Don\'t be afraid, I\'m a good person."

"As long as you answer a few questions for me, I\'ll let you go."

Lu Ran looked kindly at the three little squirrels.

"Woof!" "Waka!" Mr. Husky and the King of Sudden Death nodded.

Although they had no idea why Lu Ran wanted to catch these three guys, Lu Ran was indeed a "good person," no doubt about it.

Hopefully, the three little squirrels would take the hint.

It must be said, having Psychic Sensing is really convenient.

Lu Ran transmitted his thoughts very clearly.

After understanding, the three little squirrels nodded frantically.

"What were you talking about just now?" Lu Ran asked.

The three little squirrels looked at each other, and the one in the middle started to coo.

[Yesterday, two people, fighting on the mountain.]

"Two people were fighting on the mountain, and they were commanding creatures like monsters?" Lu Ran asked.

The little squirrels immediately nodded.

"Two Beast Trainers?" Lu Ran was slightly startled.

But why would two Beast Trainers have nothing better to do than fight in such a place?

"And then what?" Lu Ran asked.

[One, died, was buried.]

[The other, left.]

Lu Ran: ???

"Damn it." Lu Ran\'s eyes widened suddenly. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

He originally thought that the squirrels\' talk of killing each other was just a metaphor, simply referring to a fight.

But there was an actual murder?

"What kind of creatures were they commanding?" Lu Ran continued to ask.

[The one that died, a cat…]

[The other, unrecognized, very scary.]

"Do you still remember where the fight took place? Take me there to have a look," Lu Ran said.

The three little squirrels looked at each other again, very reluctant, but nodded their heads due to being too afraid of Lu Ran.

Shortly after, Lu Ran was led to the scene of yesterday\'s battle.

But as soon as they arrived, Lu Ran and Mr. Husky could smell the lingering scent of blood

Looking at the mound of soil that was obviously just hastily covered, clearly showing signs of burial, Lu Ran\'s heart began to race again.

Damn, what\'s going on.

Although he had a strong suppressive force over animals, when it came to murder and dead bodies, he was still just a normal high school student at heart.

Faced with this kind of situation, Lu Ran was momentarily frozen on the spot, unsure of what to do.

A Beast Trainer had been killed and his body dumped in the wilderness!

From the looks of the scene, the Beast Trainer who committed the murder did not seem to be an official one.

Otherwise, the disposal of the body wouldn\'t be so careless.

So, was it a vicious murder?

What should I do?

Report it to the police?

Would that bring trouble upon me?

But if I don\'t report it, and the killer is a repeat offender, wouldn\'t more people be in danger if he isn\'t caught soon?

"Damn squirrels, making me find out about this. I\'ll remember this grudge," he muttered.

Mr. Husky, the squirrels: ???

Without thinking too long, Lu Ran took a deep breath and decided to contact the authorities anyway.

He couldn\'t help it, the education he received from childhood was such that he couldn\'t ignore this kind of thing.

He used to like learning how to use the sword as a kid because he wanted to be a knight who would help those in trouble.

Even if he had passed that dream on to Mr. Husky... at least he should set a good example, right?

"Contact Little White Dragon," Lu Ran thought, realizing that was the only option he had.

He should have a way to contact the official Beast Trainers of Jinling City.

Soon, Little White Dragon answered the phone.

When he received a call from Lu Ran, Little White Dragon was quite pleased. He said, "Yo, Student Luran, it\'s been a while since we\'ve been in touch."

"Let me guess, you need my help with a problem at school? Isn\'t high school about to start?"

"No... I\'ve found a buried body in the suburbs, and my Mr. Husky, with his keen sense of smell, determined that it\'s a Beast Trainer and an extraordinary pet beast…"

Little White Dragon: ???

"Damn it." Little White Dragon also cursed, the last time Lu Ran contacted him, it was about a Siberian Tiger on the loose, this time he\'s discovered a Beast Trainer\'s body?

What does this kid get up to all day?

"Where are you? Still in Green Sea City?" Little White Dragon asked with a serious expression.

A Beast Trainer mysteriously buried in the wild was no small matter!

"No, I\'m now in Jinling City."

"Jinling? That\'s easier to handle!" said Little White Dragon. "My former boss has been transferred to the Jinling Beast Towers, I\'ll give him your contact information."

"Security has already been separated and managed by different provinces, and since I\'m in Devil City, I\'m not too familiar with the situation over there."

"Alright," Lu Ran nodded.

Afterward, Little White Dragon ended the call with Lu Ran and contacted his old boss.

The call was quickly answered.

"Zhao team!"

"Bai Junjie? What\'s up? We only just parted ways a few days ago. What\'s the matter?"

"Do you remember that guy named Lu Ran, Passerby A, whose ancestors for eighteen generations were all related to animals, the Novice Beast Trainer whom Doctor Gu had high hopes for?"

"Remember? How could I forget? I\'ve been transferred to work in Jinling City, which means I\'m even closer to him now. We might have the chance to meet up in future."

"He\'s currently in Jinling City…" Little White Dragon quickly relayed what had happened to Lu Ran to his old boss.

There was an immediate silence on the other end of the phone, then came an urgent response, "Little White, send me his contact details now. This is urgent."

...

The exchange was swift.

"Is this Student Luran? I\'m Little White Dragon\'s boss, Zhao Chen. Little White Dragon\'s already briefed me. Where are you now?"

"I\'m at…" Lu Ran quickly provided his location to the other party.

"Student Luran, thank you for reporting this case. It\'s very likely related to a case we\'re investigating. We\'re heading over immediately; you stay cautious on your end."

Once the call ended, Lu Ran heaved a slight sigh and once again turned his attention to the scene with covered tracks. The situation was obviously not simple.

A case the official Beast Trainers were investigating… So, the murderer might have already been on the officials\' radar?!

"You guys can leave now." At this moment, Lu Ran turned towards the three little squirrels since they were no longer of any use, and he intended to shoo them off.

"Gugu…" The three little squirrels cried tears of joy and turned to run away.

Meanwhile, Lu Ran waited with Mr. Husky and others on-site.

Lu Ran didn\'t dare to unearth the corpse, fearing he would disturb the crime scene.

It was definitely not because he was scared.

[So scary, there\'s a dead body, I feel like I\'m going to drop dead…] The King of Sudden Death was actually very agitated the whole time.

As for Mr. Husky, fearless of heaven and earth, it was gazing up at the sky, lost in thought.

In Jinling City, the response time of the official Beast Trainers was very fast. Contrary to Luran\'s expectations, not many people came. About fifteen minutes later, only two people arrived at the scene.

One was a middle-aged man, and the other was a young man.

Upon their arrival, they immediately looked towards Luran, and the middle-aged man said, "Student Lu, I was the one who contacted you earlier. Is this the place?"

"Yes." Lu Ran nodded.

Zhao Chen looked at the burial site with a heavy expression.

"Xiao Wang, I\'ll leave this place to you. I\'m taking Student Lu away first."

"Sure." The young man gave an OK sign.

"Student Lu, come back to the city with me. Leave the rest to the professionals," Zhao Chen said.

"Okay." Lu Ran felt that Little White Dragon\'s old boss must have thought he was just a student and shouldn\'t witness a corpse digging scene, which was why he wanted to take him away first.

Lu Ran was not interested in staying, so he called Mr. Husky and to the Lizard lying on it, "Let\'s go then."

King of Sudden Death, you should stop eating too.

This place… It\'s bad Feng Shui.

Soon, Lu Ran and his group descended the mountain.

During this time, Zhao Chen asked Luran in more detail about what had happened.

Lu Ran naturally couldn\'t say he had heard it from a squirrel and added a bit of embellishment when recounting the story.

He explained everything, from arriving in Jinling City to why he had gone up the mountain.

"You\'re really lucky to have evolved a climbing pet with decent potential using an Awakening Leaf!"

Looking at King of Sudden Death on top of Mr. Husky, Zhao Chen couldn\'t help but say, undoubtedly a novice spotted by Doctor Gu and a Beast Trainer of many generations.

At this moment, Zhao Chen received another call.

"Is it him?" asked Zhao Chen.

"That\'s right, Tao Hua, a freshman at Jinling Normal University, who had recently become a Beast Trainer. His dorm mate reported him missing last night after going out to level up in the wild. His friends, who are also Beast Trainers, found that his identity card had been canceled and couldn\'t contact him in Infinite City," the voice on the other end of the phone informed.

"Looks like he was indeed murdered. Both the person and the pet are dead."

"Then let\'s call someone to handle the body, inform the family, and I\'ll head to the headquarters to see if I can find some powerful external help to resolve this quickly," sighed Zhao Chen, then he hung up the phone.

"Uncle Zhao, what kind of case is this?" Lu Ran asked, wanting to get closer with him, Zhao Chen had directly offered for Lu Ran to call him Uncle Zhao.

At this point, although Lu Ran was not interested in the corpse, he was quite interested in the case.

In response to Lu Ran\'s question, Zhao Chen said with a wry smile, "Your timing coming to Jinling is not great; things haven\'t been peaceful around here lately."

"You\'ve just recently become a Beast Trainer, so you might not know that internationally, there exists a mysterious organization called \'Reaper\'. They possess a special skill that allows them to level up by hunting other Beast Trainers and Pet Beasts."

"Members of Reaper are spread across various countries, making up an international criminal organization."

"With the arrival of the fourth wave of Beast Trainers, they\'ve been particularly active recently. Right after I arrived in Jinling City, I detected traces related to Reaper."

"If I\'m not mistaken, that person was killed by a member of Reaper."

"Leveling up by killing Beast Trainers and Pet Beasts? There\'s such a skill?" Lu Ran was shocked. He\'d never heard of this before.

Becoming a Beast Trainer came with such dangers?

Even without entering the hazardous Secret Realm, one could still be targeted?

You can\'t level up by killing beasts in the Secret Realm… yet Beast Trainers can do this to each other?

On Mr. Husky, King of Sudden Death\'s eyes widened, feeling like the world was indeed dangerous.

"Woof!" Mr. Husky was speechless. Stop shaking.

"Don\'t worry, Reaper\'s main base is overseas, and most of their members in our country are small fry. They\'re quickly taken down as soon as they appear, to prevent them from gaining a foothold within Xia Country," assured Zhao Chen.

"But this group is very good at hiding and indeed difficult to deal with. If you encounter them in the future, your best bet is to run and use your identity card to quickly escape to Infinite City."

"That novice probably didn\'t manage to escape in time due to lack of experience dealing with \'undead\', resulting in the devouring of his soul."

"Undead, soul?" Lu Ran was confused.

Zhao Chen explained, "Members of Reaper, it\'s no longer accurate to call them Beast Trainers. They have a special skill, they kill their contracted pet beast to turn them into undead slaves, to hunt other Beast Trainers and Pet Beasts for their own Evolution, relying on absorbing the souls of other extraordinary lives."

"Therefore, internationally, rather than calling them Beast Trainers, they are more commonly known as Necromancers."
