180 Heavy Reward
“That’s true. That must be a Beast Tamer! That’s great!”
“Can you save us? We’re willing to pay you a high price.”
The six pets shouted as if they had seen a life-saving straw.
Pure dragon pets were at least Rank-6. In other words, the Beast Tamer riding on the dragon was at least Rank-6.
If a Rank-6 Beast Tamer came to save them, it wouldn’t affect the current situation. However, if the other party had a flying pet, the situation would be much different.
Also, judging from the size of the dragon pet, it could carry six people. In other words, as long as the pet was willing to help them, the six of them could leave safely.
Although there were many Steel Beetles, they definitely couldn’t catch up to flying pets.
This time, they were finally saved. The six of them looked at Ye Fan in the sky with joy.
“Are those people asking for help?” Little Nine looked at the people below excitedly.
Ye Fan looked at it indifferently before nodding.
“Save them.”
With his ability, he could save those human Beast Tamers. Therefore, it was not a big deal to save a few people on the way.
Moreover, the hundreds of Steel Beetles below should be able to yield two or three points of growth. After all, he could accumulate the little gains. There was no reason for him to let go of the EXP he had obtained for free.
After sensing Ye Fan’s will, the Firmament King let out a dragon roar and flapped its wings to fly down.
The violent wind swept down from the sky. The sharp blades caused by the violent wind tore through the armor, and the sound of flesh piercing entered their ears. The Steel Beetles were caught off guard by this surprise attack and were unable to resist.
Countless lightning bolts intertwined in the void like long snakes and streaked across the swarm of insects. In just ten minutes, hundreds of Steel Beetles fell. Moreover, their bodies were smoking and they were no longer breathing.
After two waves of attacks, the number of Steel Beetles had greatly decreased. The hundreds of thousands of insects just now were already in a state of disunity. Two-thirds of them had been dealt with.
The six Beast Tamers were dumbfounded. They looked at the empty basin in front of them and were speechless.
The lightning stopped, and so did the wind. The plain basin fell silent.
The Steel Beetles that had gone crazy just now seemed to be frightened by this violent wind attack. The remaining insects were dumbfounded as they looked at the sky, not knowing what had happened.
The six rescued Beast Tamers looked up at the sky in shock. They had hoped that the Beast Tamer could save them and take them away.
However, they did not expect the other party to directly deal with this place. Moreover, in just a few seconds, hundreds of Steel Beetles died before they could let out screams.
This scene had a huge impact on them. After all, that was a Rank-5 group of monsters, unlike the Rank-2 and Rank-3 trash outside the plains.
These Rank-5 monsters were slaughtered like fruits by the pure-blooded dragon pet. It was unimaginable.
After a while, a roar broke the silence.
The Steel Beetles reacted and attacked the six Beast Tamers. They were not smart enough to understand what the reinforcements meant.
However, Ye Fan was in the sky and they couldn’t attack him, so they targeted these Beast Tamers.
However, there were only more than 20 Steel Beetles left. They were not a threat to the Beast Tamers. Therefore, it didn’t take long for them to deal with the remaining Steel Beetles.
Next, under their gazes, Ye Fan descended from the sky and got off the dragon’s back.
Seeing the face of the reinforcements, the six Beast Tamers were dumbfounded. Firstly, it was because Little Nine was a rare beauty. Secondly, it was because Ye Fan looked too young. They had thought that someone with such strength would be a Beast Tamer in his thirties.
Even if he was not in his thirties, he should be around the same age as them. No one had thought that the person who saved them would be a young man. Moreover, he looked to be in his twenties.
The six of them looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock. But not long after, they reacted and quickly restrained their expressions, saying to Ye Fan gratefully,
“Thank you so much this time.”
“My name is Yang Lin. These are my companions.” Yang Lin introduced them one by one.
After his introduction, Ye Fan introduced himself.
“Ye Fan.”
Then, he pointed at the cave and asked, “That should be the nest of the Steel Beetles?”
Yang Lin paused for a moment before nodding.
“Yes!”
Ye Fan nodded and asked: “There’s something wrong with those Steel Beetles, what’s going on?”
Insects were usually fierce and cruel, but Steel Beetles were an exception. Thus, when those Steel Beetles went crazy just now, Ye Fan was a little curious.
Yang Lin and the others had hesitant expressions when they heard this, but Ye Fan was their savior, so they did not hide this matter and carefully took out an egg from their bag.
“We stole an insect egg. That’s why they went crazy.”
This was the insect queen’s egg. That was it. Ye Fan understood now.
This was because insects usually had very strong group awareness. Although their intelligence was not high, the leader of the insects was very important to the insects. She was the one who commanded the entire swarm.
Therefore, the leader’s status in the group was like that of a brain. She played a crucial role. Every group would have an Insect Queen that was hatched from this egg. This was a very important thing to them.
If the Insect Queen died, the new Insect Queen would hatch and become the new leader. The importance of this was obvious.
After knowing that the thing in Yang Lin’s hand was an insect egg, Ye Fan completely understood why those Steel Beetles were chasing after them like crazy. These guys were really not afraid of death, even daring to steal such a thing.
It was as if after discovering Ye Fan’s thoughts, everyone could not hide the awkwardness on their faces. They were too greedy, which was why they wanted this thing.
After all, the eggs of the Steel Beetles were rather precious. The insects hatched from this egg were at least peak Rank-6.
Moreover, their potential should be above Rank 8 or at the peak of Rank 8. Such an outstanding pet could definitely be sold for a good price, which was more than what they had obtained after working hard for several years.
That was why they were greedy and took the risk to get this egg. Fortunately, Ye Fan appeared in time, otherwise, they would all have died here. The six of them were secretly happy to be saved and were very grateful to Ye Fan.
But Ye Fan did not care about their expressions. At this moment, he was immersed in his own thoughts. After seeing the insect queen’s egg, an idea appeared in his mind.
