Beastmaster: I'm really not a training master

Chapter 948 Encountering an Oasis in the Desert

Li Qian and Teacher Ling flew forward.

Because of the battle, the resulting energy fluctuations would obscure their tracks, and given the need to escape quickly, they didn't have many concerns.

They flew for dozens of kilometers in one breath before landing.

Once we get here, continuing to fly high in the sky will make us stand out, and we might attract new ferocious beasts.

"If you have any questions, just ask them directly. There's no need to be so hesitant and secretive." The two landed on the ground and began to walk on their own. Seeing that Li Qian hesitated for a moment, as if he wanted to say something but was holding back, Teacher Ling took the initiative to speak.

Li Qian sighed and directly voiced his question, "Teacher Ling, what about that mechanical body just now..."

Although he didn't finish his sentence, the implication was already very clear.

As Teacher Zero walked forward, he replied, "I know what you're wondering about. I'll tell you anyway. That mechanical body is indeed one of my core mechanical bodies."

"The reason we left it behind was to buy us time to escape."

"What about its mechanical core?" Li Qian asked. He knew very well what a mechanical core meant to a mechanical mind master, and it was precisely because he knew that he couldn't help but ask.

"Don't worry, I only left a combat program inside that mechanical body, and enough energy for one strike." Teacher Zero knew what Li Qian was worried about and replied with a smile.

"Enough energy for a single strike?" Li Qian was puzzled after hearing Teacher Ling's words.

"That's enough for this strike."

As Teacher Ling was speaking, she suddenly stopped and turned to look back.

Li Qian also subconsciously looked in the direction behind him.

Boom~!

Just as they turned to look back, an explosion suddenly rang out.

The explosion was extremely exaggerated and terrifying; it could be heard clearly even from dozens of kilometers away.

You can even see reddish-yellow sand clouds rising into the sky, like mushroom bombs.

Li Qian looked at the rising reddish-yellow sand cloud and instantly realized what was happening.

So, when Teacher Zero said "enough for one blow," he was actually referring to the final self-destruction.

Even though the mechanical core had been removed beforehand, and only a combat program was still supporting it, this attack was still terrifying enough.

Li Qian estimated that even if the minotaur didn't die, it would suffer serious injuries.

"Moo moo..."

Sure enough, the moment after the explosion, the minotaur's moo rang out. Even from this distance, it could still be heard, and one could even sense the anger in it.

Upon hearing the moo, Li Qian said with some concern, "Teacher Ling, won't that minotaur catch up with us?"

That minotaur is incredibly powerful, comparable to Zero-sensei. If it were to pursue them in its rage, the consequences would be dire.

Teacher Ling shook her head, her tone as usual, "Don't worry, getting injured in a place like this is a very bad sign."

“Cri, ri, ri…”

The moment he uttered those words, a series of loud eagle cries suddenly rang out from the distant horizon.

Teacher Ling pointed to the eagle's cry in the distance and smiled, "Look, that guy's in trouble."

Li Qian subconsciously looked in the direction from which the eagle's cry came, and soon discovered... a dark cloud that was flying over at an extremely fast speed.

Amidst the churning dark clouds, he saw a gigantic, eagle-shaped beast bobbing up and down.

The eagle-shaped pet had crimson eyes and four wings on its back, giving it an extremely fierce appearance. It rode a dark cloud, rushing at an incredible speed towards the direction where the battle had just taken place.

Sure enough, not long after, Li Qian heard another extremely violent explosion happening dozens of kilometers away.

Without a doubt, it was the minotaur that was fighting the eagle-shaped pet that had just flown by.

Li Qian quite enjoys watching this kind of dog-eat-dog drama.

“Here, any violent energy fluctuations will attract the attention of other ferocious beasts. This is something we need to pay attention to, and it is also an opportunity we can seize.”

As Teacher Ling spoke, Li Qian listened attentively.

At this moment, he was still explaining that there was only one reason: he wanted to pass on some combat experience to him.

Although Li Qian is a breeder and his development path is not primarily focused on combat, he is still, in essence, a beast tamer.

In terms of combat, you can be bad at it, but you can't be completely without experience.

And so, the two walked quickly, talking as they went, and soon they were far from the site of the battle.

After creating some distance between them, they changed lanes again and returned to their previous route.

The two walked on calmly, aimlessly—at least, aimlessly at Li Qian…

After about five hours, although they had not yet left the desert, they had seen a different kind of scenery.

After crossing the sand dunes, they saw an oasis about two kilometers away.

Upon seeing this scenery, Li Qian felt an inexplicable sense of warmth and familiarity.

Strictly speaking, Shazhou City is situated on a large oasis.

Li Qian was already very familiar with this scenery.

The two exchanged a glance and then stopped. In this vast desert, an oasis had appeared. This scene seemed like a good thing, but in reality, it might not be.

It needs to be handled with caution.

This oddity was something Li Qian could think of, let alone Teacher Ling.

In fact, the moment she stopped, Teacher Zero had already taken action.

A dozen or so mechanical beetles spread their wings and silently took off, flying into the oasis not far away.

A few minutes later, the mechanical beetle returned, and Teacher Zero said, "This little oasis doesn't seem to pose any danger..."

Teacher Ling spoke, but his tone wasn't entirely certain.

In the tenth-level dimensional plane, in such a sea of ​​sand, even after exploration, not all dangers can be ruled out.

Moreover, according to Teacher Zero, the mechanical beetle's detection capabilities are quite limited.

Once they were sure there was no danger on the surface, the two of them did not hesitate and stepped straight into the small oasis.

After traveling for so long, even with their bodies having undergone extraordinary modifications, they were starting to feel the strain.

Even if nothing needs to be replenished, it's time to take a rest.

Of course, this rest is definitely something Li Qian needs, but as for Teacher Zero, being a mechanical life form, he doesn't have that need.

Most importantly, they need to stop for a moment, find a slightly secluded place, and think about how to proceed.
