After dinner, Chen Qiyue brought her out after giving the Giant Ugly Fish a massage.
This was also the first time the Giant Ugly Fish had gone out since she was born.
Therefore, Chen Qiyue put her into the Beast Taming Space.
After signing a contract with a Fantastic Beast, every beast tamer would have a space where they could store Fantastic Beasts.
However, there was nothing in this space, so the Fantastic Beasts usually wouldn’t stay inside.
The Giant Ugly Fish naturally did not want to stay inside, but Chen Qiyue told her that he was going out next and it was not convenient for him to bring her along. Therefore, the Giant Ugly Fish could only give up.
In fact, Chen Qiyue thought about the Giant Ugly Fish’s pride, and he didn’t want her to be mocked…
Words were scary. This saying was not just for show.
Most importantly, the Giant Ugly Fish was still a baby that had just hatched.
Chen Qiyue could not bear for her to be criticized by others outside.
Half an hour later, Chen Qiyue got out of the taxi and arrived at the entrance of Jingyuan Estate.
It was two minutes to six.
Chen Qiyue looked around and saw a white bus parked at the entrance of the small shop opposite the main entrance of the neighborhood. The plate was EU893.
He took a deep breath and suppressed his racing heart. Thinking of the Giant Ugly Fish in his Beast Taming Space, he heaved a sigh of relief and strode towards the white bus.
One had to know that although the Giant Ugly Fish had just been born, it was still a B-rank Fantastic Beast after all and had a certain combat ability.
Chen Qiyue stood beside the driver’s seat of the bus and knocked on the window. “Hello.”
The car window rolled down, revealing the face of a middle-aged man wearing sunglasses.
“Did Wang Xinqiu tell you to come?” The middle-aged man’s voice was hoarse and a little strange, as if he was speaking in a low voice.
Chen Qiyue nodded, “She wanted my Fantastic Beast to help with positioning.”
The middle-aged man looked at Chen Qiyue suspiciously, “Do you really have a B-rank Fantastic Beast?”
Chen Qiyue raised his eyebrows. This guy didn’t believe that he had a B-rank Fantastic Beast.
“Of course, I chose it from the E-level random Fantastic Beast eggs of the Feeding House a few days ago. Many people know about it.”
“Oh, it’s you. I’ve heard about this before. You must be Xinqiu’s classmate.” The middle-aged man nodded. “Alright, get on the bus.”
Chen Qiyue heaved a sigh of relief, but he felt that something was amiss. However, he could not tell what was wrong.
After getting into the bus, the driver did not drive immediately. Instead, he threw an eye mask at Chen Qiyue.
“You look quite honest. Put it on yourself. You’re Xinqiu’s classmate, so I won’t trick you. It’s not good to know too much.”
Hearing this, cold sweat broke out on Chen Qiyue’s back. He pretended to be calm and swallowed his saliva.
Was it too late for him to jump out of the bus now?
His eyes subconsciously looked at the situation in the car. Then, his gaze landed on the front passenger seat.
There was a gray Double-Clawed Giant Cicada sitting there.
This was an extremely powerful Fantastic Beast. Looking at the circles on its pincers, one could tell that it was already a beginner or even close to an intermediate Fantastic Beast.
Not to be trifled with!
Moreover, the Double-Clawed Giant Cicada was extremely fast. He could not escape at all.
Even if he used his Giant Ugly Fish, he probably wouldn’t be a match for the other party. After all, the Giant Ugly Fish was still a baby.
Chen Qiyue could only put on the blindfold without saying a word.
When he saw the boy in the rearview mirror being stunned for a moment before quickly putting on the blindfold without saying anything, the middle-aged man nodded in satisfaction.
Xinqiu’s classmate was indeed reliable. She did not look for the people from the Fantastic Beast Alliance outside.
Otherwise, he would have to deal with it when the time came. If he was not careful, it would be even more troublesome.
The middle-aged man raised the glass window, started the car, and started driving.
Darkness always made people feel fear.
Chen Qiyue knew that there were only him and the driver in the car. There was also a Double-Clawed Giant Cicada.
However, he did not know where he would be sent next.
Chen Qiyue felt a little regretful. If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have accepted Wang Xinqiu’s order.
Wang Xinqiu was an arrogant woman, but she wasn’t a bad person.
At the very least, he often saw her buying food for a few poor classmates.
Therefore, even though she was acting strangely, he was still willing to believe her.
Who knew that he would fall into a terrible situation this time?
As the car drove forward, time passed minute by minute. The cold sweat on his back also drenched the back of his shirt.
Now, he could only take it one step at a time and see what was going on when he reached his destination.
In the darkness, Chen Qiyue could only feel his heartbeat. Dong, dong, dong.
After some time, a voice sounded. “Take it off. Get out of the car.”
Chen Qiyue took off his blindfold and slowly opened his eyes. He first adapted to the surrounding light before getting out of the car.
Then, he saw a slightly wide field, and they were on the empty sand in the middle of the field.
There was no one around. Not a single person could be seen.
Chen Qiyue swallowed his saliva and saw the driver and the Double-Clawed Giant Cicada get out of the car.
...
“Let’s go. Follow me.” The driver wore sunglasses and walked in front with the Double-Clawed Giant Cicada.
Following the direction they were walking in, Chen Qiyue finally saw something covered by a cloth in the middle of the sand.
It was a piece of cloth that was very similar to the color of the sand. At first glance, it could not be seen.
If the driver had not walked to the edge of the cloth, Chen Qiyue would have overlooked it.
The driver reached out and began to lift the cloth. After a while, he turned around and shouted at Chen Qiyue, “What are you waiting for? Come and help.”
“Oh! Oh! I’m coming.” Chen Qiyue quickly jogged forward and helped the driver lift the brownish-yellow cloth.
Then, a set of grayish-white instruments appeared in front of him.
“What’s this for?” Chen Qiyue asked subconsciously.
“Didn’t Xinqiu tell you that we’re going to send a position into the illusion realm?”
The driver nodded at the Double-Clawed Giant Cicada. “Double-clawed giant cicada, it’s up to you.”
“Chan~” The Double-Clawed Giant Cicada growled and walked to the side of an instrument.
...
The device had two white handles, and in the middle was a cylinder with a diameter of one meter and a height of about one meter.
There were circles of patterns on the round surface.
The two huge pincers of the Double-Clawed Giant Cicada suddenly clamped the two handles of the instrument, and an invisible energy surged in.
In the blink of an eye, a blue light visible to the naked eye appeared on the two handles and gradually began to spread throughout the entire instrument.
Then, on the patterns on the circular surface, a transparent circular entrance that flashed with ripples appeared.
The driver was testing another instrument. Then, he waved at Chen Qiyue. “Come to my side.”
Then, he picked up a tube from the device and stuffed it into Chen Qiyue’s hands.
“Get your B-rank Fantastic Beast to come out. Just inject Fantastic Beast energy into this tube.”
