Beastmaster

Chapter 198 Wan Gu did not fall!

Jing Cangming nodded and said, "It seems like a heroic young man formed a force in the Western Wilderness, and eventually became the top force in the Western Continent."

The two of them nodded repeatedly, "Yes, this guy is really amazing."

Jing Cangming also nodded, "Yes, yes."

But Long Luo and Wan Jun didn't know that Jing Cangming's unrestrained praise was actually praising himself, and the person in front of them was the young hero.

Jing Cangming suddenly asked, "Captain, deputy captain, I have just arrived in the Northern Continent. Can you tell me about the Beast Hunter Team?"

The two looked at each other and said, "Haha, you want to know about the sharp corners, right?" Wan Jun said.

Jing Cangming felt a little embarrassed when his little trick was exposed.

"Don't worry, Sharp Jiao and Wangu are both second-tier teams. They dare not do anything to Wangu, and they will not attack you as a member of Wangu's team."

"Yes, don't worry."

"The second echelon? Even though Sharp Horn is so powerful, it is only the second echelon?" Jing Cangming was a little puzzled.

Because judging by how everyone in the hall was afraid of the word "sharp corner", he was obviously a very powerful guy.

Qianjun said, "Isn't it just a second-rate team? The first-rate teams don't come here to take on tasks. The clients come to them directly."

Long Luo said, "Don't worry, the captain of the sharp horns is a coward who only bullies the weak and fears the strong. I look down on him! If he dares to cause trouble for you, I will beat the shit out of him!"

Jing Cangming laughed, "Captain, what you say is so interesting."

"Okay, come with me, I will help you register into our team, and then you will be a member of Wangu from now on."

Jing Cangming nodded, "By the way, Captain, where are the other team members?"

Long Luo laughed, "That's all, there are only three of us, a captain, a vice-captain, and a team member, and that's you."

Jing Cangming was immediately confused. There were only three people in this team? If he wasn't counted, there were only two of them in Wan Gu?

Two people can become a second-tier team that can rival the Sharp Corner?! What kind of strength do these two people have!

Long Luo didn't give Jing Cangming a chance to be surprised. He took Jing Cangming's hand and went to the registration office.

"Hey! Level up! Lu Ming! Our new member of Wan Gu!" Long Luo said casually.

When the old man at the registration office saw that it was Long Luo, the two of them smiled at each other and said, "Haha, you finally got it. I told you a long time ago that you should recruit new team members."

Jing Cangming was a little surprised when he heard this. A new member? Was there another member before him?

There was an obvious flash of sadness in Long Luo's eyes, which was caught by Jing Cangming.

"Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense and register quickly! We are in a hurry to complete the mission!" In order to hide his mood, Long Luo deliberately urged impatiently.

The old man laughed and said nothing more.

After a while, "Alright, take Wangu's badge and get out!"

Long Luo gestured to Jing Cangming to hold the badge, and then said to the old man, "Let's go, old man."

Then he took Jing Cangming out of the hall. When Qianjun saw them coming, he also stood up and followed Long Luo.

The three-member Ten Thousand Bone Beast Hunting Team walked out of the hall.

Jing Cangming looked at the pure gold plate in his hand, which was the same as the ones on their chests, and then hung it on his chest like them.

From this moment on, Jing Cangming is a member of Wan Gu, the second-tier team of the Northern Continent.

"Captain, deputy captain, how is this echelon determined?" Jing Cangming asked behind them.

"Qianjun, please talk to him," Long Luo was obviously unhappy. Maybe what the old man said just now brought back bad memories for him.

Qianjun looked at Long Luo's expression and nodded without saying anything.

"In the Northern Continent Beast Hunting Team, there are a total of six echelons, and they are distinguished by the material of the team brand. The strongest is made of crystal, the next is our gold, followed by silver, black copper, black iron and wood."

"After the initial registration, you are all in the sixth echelon. If you want to advance to the next echelon, you have to complete certain tasks. After reaching a certain number of tasks, you have to undertake advanced tasks, which are tasks assigned by the hall personally. If you complete them within the requirements, you can be promoted. If you fail, you will not be allowed to be promoted again within three years."

Jing Cangming nodded. He understood. Moreover, he understood even more how hard it was for them to turn the badge from wood into gold.

"Deputy Captain, I want to know, have you two always been our team? Have you two brought Wangu to the second echelon?"

Hearing this, Long Luo obviously quickened his pace, and a strong sense of sadness could be felt from him.

Qianjun said, "No, there were eight members in our team before, and there are ten people in total including the two of us."

"Then," before Jing Cangming could finish his words.

Long Luo's voice rang out, "Lu Ming, can you drink?"

Jing Cangming nodded and said, "Yes."

"Okay! I'll treat you, let's go drink."

Qianjun looked at Long Luo, then at Jing Cangming, and said, "Let's go and have a drink."

At this time, the sky had gradually darkened, and the moon climbed above the treetops again, bringing a sense of tranquility to the northern continent.

But in comparison, the Northern Continent is still bustling and noisy at night.

The three of them were sitting in a tavern. "Waiter! Bring us all the good wine and food!"

"Hey! Here I come, sir!"

The three of them sat around the table, looking at the food and wine that had just been served.

Jing Cangming's head hurts when he sees this. What the hell is this? Isn't this just fried cucumbers and peanuts? Where is the third dish?

The wine was good though, at least the jar it came in was big enough.

Jing Cangming didn't complain openly, but picked up the wine jar and poured wine for the two of them.

Qianjun was not happy, "Damn it! It's fine if we just eat this, but you're going to eat this too when this new person comes?!"

"Haha, well... funds are a bit tight," Long Luo said embarrassedly.

Qianjun sighed and didn't say anything else.

Jing Cangming was very surprised. As a second-tier team, the mission must be coming for him, so how could he be short of money?

The two of them seemed to have noticed Jing Cangming's doubts.

Qianjun was the first to say, "Come on! Have a bowl!"

Jing Cangming quickly raised his wrist, the three of them clinked their wrists together, and then drank it all in one gulp.

Then, under the leadership of Long Luo, the three of them ate bowl after bowl.

But Jing Cangming soon discovered that this wine was different from the ones he had drunk before. This wine couldn't evaporate! He felt a little dizzy.

Looking at Jing Cangming's expression, Long Luo laughed, "Lu Ming, you may not know that this wine is specially prepared for beast generals. After drinking it, you will be like ordinary people, and it cannot evaporate!"

Jing Cangming was stunned for a while, then burst into laughter, "Well, let's not go home until we are drunk today!"

After that, the three of them ate a few more bowls.

As if taking advantage of the alcohol, Long Luo started talking immediately.

"Let me tell you, back when Wan Gu was in its heyday, it was truly amazing. No team at the same stage could compete with us."

Qianjun also followed suit, while Jing Cangming leaned back on the stool, watching the two of them talking and playing happily.

Jing Cangming thought of Zhan Yongyi, Fang Tiankuo and Tu Li.

Many years ago, they also sat together happily drinking like this.

But suddenly, it was as if something sad was brought up.

Long Luo was in a low mood, while Qianjun was drinking with his head down.

Jing Cangming didn't say anything, just looked at the two of them quietly.

Long Luo said hoarsely, "Three years ago, we accepted the mission to be promoted to the first echelon. The mission required us to kill the beastman overlord of the Great Northern Wilderness, the Sky Eye Ice Giant, within ten days. But who knew that the mission... the mission..."

Long Luo choked up as he spoke, and the two-meter-tall man actually shed tears.

Qianjun sighed, his cheeks already wine red.

Qianjun patted Long Luo's shoulder, looked at Jing Cangming with tears in his eyes, and said with a sob, "We failed in that mission. Except for the two of us, everyone else died."

"They...they stayed here voluntarily so that the two of us could survive..." Long Luo said with a sob.

Jing Cangming opened his eyes wide and looked at them in surprise, but Jing Cangming really couldn't say a word. He couldn't empathize with others without experiencing their suffering, but Jing Cangming's eyes also became red.

I can only feel shocked and regretful, but I really can't feel the feeling of losing a brother.

The closest time was when Fang Tiankuo and Longying disappeared, but later I learned that they were still alive, and I felt relieved.

Anyway, as long as they are alive, it's fine.

"So, the money you earned from the missions was given to their families, right?" Jing Cangming asked.

Qianjun nodded, "Yes, from then on, the two of us only accepted gold coin missions just to support their families."

Jing Cangming was really shocked. This kind of brotherhood and comradeship between them is something that many people cannot have.

But fortunately, I also have the kind of brotherhood that is willing to sacrifice one's life for one's brothers!

Jing Cangming stood up and raised a bowl of wine, "Cheers! Eight seniors! Wan Gu has not fallen! Please have a safe journey!!!"

Jing Cangming was also moved by them, and his eyes became a little red. Under their surprised expressions, a bowl of wine fell to the ground.

Then he lifted up the jar and drank all the wine in it.

The liquid kept flowing down Jing Cangming's neck, and the front of his clothes was also wet.

After a few gulps, the jar was empty, and then with a bang, the jar fell to the ground and broke into pieces.

Jing Cangming's face was as red as a monkey's butt, and he was swaying and looked like he was about to fall.

Long Luo and Qian Jun rushed over to support Jing Cangming, "Lu Ming! Are you okay?"

"Yes, deputy, yes. From now on, I will raise their families with you!" Jing Cangming said with a big tongue.
