C6 The Man in the Mission
Outside the Phoenix Nest Mountain, in the dark forest, a man covered in blood was holding a big tree. He was breathing heavily and trembling all over.
His appearance was really miserable. His black windbreaker was torn and tattered by something, revealing his bleeding flesh inside. Half of his body was already soaked in blood.
He was wearing a ferocious evil ghost mask with green eyes and sharp teeth, as if he didn't want anyone to recognize him.
In the sky, an invisible airflow carrying some creature passed through the sky in an instant. An incomparably terrifying aura descended here, instantly scaring many of the foraging beasts and even the low-grade Demon Beast into trembling. The forest below was constantly shaken by a strange gust of wind, and the sound of tree leaves colliding with each other could be heard...
The man's heart was instantly lifted up. However, he was very calm as he lay on the tree branch. He endured the exhaustion of his body, which was on the verge of collapse, and remained motionless. He held his breath and concentrated, like a corpse.
Until he could not feel the presence of that aura, he had obviously chased after the distance ahead. Only then did the man fall from the tree as if he had lost all his strength. He staggered as he sat on the ground. With a wave of his hand, a pile of bottles and jars appeared on the ground. Trembling, he searched for medicine that could stop bleeding. However, he quickly put them away in disappointment. All the medicine had been used up.
He had to change directions and shake them off before they could react. Otherwise, even if all the demon pets were unable to fight anymore, he would still be unable to escape death!
Just at this moment, a huge snake Demon Beast locked onto his aura. It slowly climbed from the tree behind him to the ground and carefully approached the man.
The man's aura was extremely weak to begin with. At this moment, he closed his eyes drowsily.
However, when the huge snake suddenly sped up and pounced over, he immediately noticed the unusual movement. He suddenly threw a punch backwards!
Bang!
The giant snake demon that pounced over was actually sent flying by a punch!
But because of this, the wound that had just been wrapped up was torn open once again. Fresh blood gurgled out from his waist, causing his face to once again turn a little pale, completely becoming as white as paper!
This was a Bronze Rank Four iron-tailed poisonous viper. Naturally, it would not die so easily. Instead, it quickly stood up and spat venom at the man!
The venom of the iron-tailed poisonous viper was extremely corrosive. As long as one touched it a little bit, their skin and flesh would be lacerated!
However, the man only looked at the Iron Tail Venom Venom Snake in despair and self-mockery. He seemed to mock himself for not dying even after being chased by so many powerful creatures. However, in the end, he ended up dying in the hands of such a weak low-level Demon Beast.
Just as the man closed his eyes and prepared to accept his fate of death, a piercing sound rang out. Dozens of flying blade-like feathers violently poured onto the Iron Tail Poison Venom Snake's body, instantly interrupting its skill. It cut open dozens of tiny wounds all over its body, and fresh blood flowed out. This also caused the Iron Tail Venomous Snake to hurriedly dodge in panic. Its sharp eyes looked up at a huge Iron Feather Eagle hovering between the treetops. It spat out its snake tongue and let out an angry hissing sound!
The blood rain completely ignored it. It made use of its advantage in the air to circle steadily, waiting for its master's instructions.

"Sanguine Rain, use the Feather Arrow again!"
Wu Chen stood in the distance and commanded. After half a day of consciously searching for Demon Beast to fight and refining, the cooperation between the man and the pet had become much better.
Endless steel feathers rained down on the iron-tailed poisonous snake like a storm. The iron-tailed poisonous snake was furious, but it could not resist such an AoE attack. Even if it tried to dodge quickly, it would still be pierced through many bloody holes. Of course, it would not be a threat to its life.
Seemingly aware that the Iron Feather Eagle was not to be trifled with, the Iron Tail Venomous Snake slipped away without hesitation.
Just as Bloodrain was about to chase after it, Wu Chen stopped him. "This is a Tier 4 Demon Beast. It's not something we can deal with."
Sanguine Rain was only Tier 2. The Tier 3 Demon Beast could still be barely dealt with by relying on its advantage in the air. The prerequisite was that the opponent's potential did not exceed Sanguine Rain's, and the higher the potential the demon pet's combat strength would be. Not to mention that it was two realms higher than Sanguine Rain. Once Sanguine Rain was hit by it... Since Wu Chen had been scared away, why would he take the risk?
Wu Chen looked at the man lying under the tree in the distance. He was very surprised. He should be the mission target of the system.
Wu Chen carefully came to the tree. At this time, the eyes under the mask suddenly became sharp. The hoarse voice said coldly, "Who are you?"
Wu Chen hurriedly said, "Don't misunderstand. I came to see you because you were injured. Do you need help?"
"No need!"
The man coldly refused. However, he struggled to get up, but his body was powerless.
Wu Chen was also helpless. The system only told him to save the Demon Pet Master. With the current situation, how was he supposed to save it?
"That's right, a high grade Healing Medicine!"
Wu Chen thought of the reward he had received, a high grade Healing Medicine. Any Demon Beast below the Silver Level could be saved. Looking at this person's appearance... He was afraid that his demon pet was injured, which was why he had no choice but to run away. Rather than saving him, it was better to let him save himself, in case his enemy brought him more trouble!
Hmm, the reward was important, but it was not as important as his own life!
Wu Chen made up his mind and retrieved the high-grade healing medicine. Although it was a little painful, he could not bear to part with the child. In order to obtain a greater reward from the system, he had to sacrifice this bottle of healing potion that had not yet been heated up. It was worth it!
"Take it, it might be useful to you!"
Wu Chen reluctantly placed the high-grade Healing Medicine in front of the masked man.
The masked man only took a glance at the Healing Medicine on the ground that was stored in a jade box. He was somewhat surprised as to why this little brat who had just contracted a bronze demon pet would help him.
Wu Chen did not explain anything. He turned around and left. He would not put himself in danger. He would help him if he could. As for whether or not he could complete the system's mission, it would depend on whether this fellow's survival will was strong enough.
"Wait, little demon. I, Di Rong, will never owe anyone anything, even if it's you, little demon!"
The masked man smiled. Although he did not know what this little devil had given him, it could be considered good luck for this little devil to be able to help him when he was in a desperate situation.
With great difficulty, he waved his hand from the ring and took out a jade cylinder. He calmly threw it to Wu Chen and said, "I'll give it to you."
Wu Chen hurriedly took the jade cylinder and thought quickly. The person the system had asked him to help was definitely not an ordinary person. Was this considered picking up scraps?
Although he was happy, on the surface, Wu Chen still did not show it. He slightly bowed to express his gratitude, but left without turning his head back.
After Wu Chen left, the man opened the jade box that Wu Chen had given him. When he saw it, he was filled with surprise and excitement. "It's actually a high-grade Healing Medicine!"
"That kid..."
Looking at the place where Wu Chen had disappeared, the masked man had mixed feelings in his heart.
High-grade Healing Medicine was not a very precious item. Almost all the experts above the silver ring level would store a portion of it. It could be used to treat demon pets at critical moments, but for the masked man at this moment... This high-grade Healing Medicine was simply a timely help!
Although it was unable to treat his Silver Level natal demon pet, it was enough to restore the combat strength of a Secondary Pet!
"Come out, Flaming Firethorn Bird!"
A huge bird beast appeared in front of him. Its body was over ten meters long, and the moment it appeared, countless Demon Beast in the forest fled in all directions in fear!
It was a demon pet that had reached the Bronze Rank Nine, and it was also a demon pet that the masked man hadn't reached the Silver Level yet. High-grade Healing Medicine only had the best effect for those below the Silver Level, and it was useless against a demon pet with its real name. It was better to give it to the Flaming Firethorn Bird!
Not long after, an excited cry resounded through the forest, and a huge flaming bird quickly disappeared into the horizon!
