My Card Beast Taming Game

Lu Qingning said calmly.

Mysterious Iron Divine Weapon!

Zhou Chen's eyes shone brightly. Normally, every time a spirit card advances its rank and reaches the corresponding level, the size of the card creature increases dramatically.

Captain Changming is currently being held back by his level; he'll be able to catch up once he becomes an intermediate card master—

Uh.

A chicken bigger than a building?

Zhou Chen fell into deep thought. He certainly liked beings that were large and powerful, but for Captain Changming, a small size was not unacceptable.

Lu Qingning and Han Baobao were also visiting the Watery Secret Realm for the first time. After taking a few short breaths, they said, "The oxygen content here is very high. Ordinary people would probably find it difficult to adapt in a short time."

"Indeed, the humidity is high, and I feel like my hair is about to drip water." Han Baobao touched her hair, which was tied up in a bun.

Beyond the outpost lies a towering forest that almost blocks out the sunlight; even the tall and imposing Xuan Tie divine weapons appear small in comparison.

Fortunately, the trees are quite far apart, allowing ample space for sunlight to fall.

The four headed to the east of the outpost and found a temporary car rental point, but instead of choosing a five-seater SUV, they opted for an amphibious four-wheeled motorcycle.

Hua Ning asked, "Can you ride a motorcycle?"

"No certificate." Zhou Chen nodded.

He had ridden his dad's motorcycle a long time ago, so much so that he didn't need to learn how to ride the shared electric bikes later on; he could just get on and ride them.

Lu Qingning said frankly, "I'd like to trouble Sister Hua to give Hanbao a ride. I'll be traveling with Zhou Chen, and I'm worried about him going alone."

"Okay."

Hua Ning smiled and agreed, thinking to herself that Lu Qingning's style of doing things was indeed domineering and decisive. She could make arrangements for her, a mid-level card master of the gold rank, just like that.

However, this time she was only there to provide protection, and the decision-making power should be left to Lu Qingning and the others.

There were many preparations before departure, the most crucial and important of which was—

Spray insect repellent, ensuring minimal exposed skin area, and carry a beacon receiver to locate each position.

After checking everything was in order under Lu Qingning's guidance, the group set off.

Zhou Chen and Hua Ning were in charge of riding the bikes, while Lu Qingning and Han Baobao sat behind them, controlling their respective card creatures.

He already knew that the Netherflame Lion was fast, but he didn't expect the Electromagnetic Cannon Scorpion to be just as fast, rumbling forward on its eight legs like a tank.

Because Lu Qingning deliberately kept a certain distance, Zhou Chen didn't feel much like he was carrying someone. Apart from occasionally hearing faint breathing sounds, it wasn't much different from riding alone.

To be honest, it was beyond my expectations that Lu Qingning would share a ride with him.

Since the boundary incident, there has been very little physical contact between the two, which inexplicably made Zhou Chen feel strange.

hum!

The off-road motorcycles left the outpost gate, making quite a commotion that attracted the attention of many truck drivers along the way, but they quickly looked away.

Some recognized Hua Ning, a mid-level card master, while others knew that anyone who could enter a large secret realm with a team of less than five people was not someone to be trifled with.

Moreover, it's a rare configuration of three women, one man, and two silver-tier spirit cards.

It's better to avoid trouble; trying to be the one who catches the prey isn't so easy.

-

Five kilometers outside the outpost.

This place belongs to the outer perimeter of the Watery Mystery Realm—the Giant Tree Mud Land.

Sunlight struggled to filter through the leaves, casting dappled shadows on the damp ground. The towering trees, their trunks as thick as city walls, their branches intertwined to form a dome, blocking out the sun.

The pungent smell of decaying leaves and dampness filled the air, and a faint mist lingered in the air year-round.

buzzing-

The roaring wheels churned up dead leaves and humus from under the tree roots, sending them flying into the dim corners, splashing black water all over the ground.

The entire forest was quiet and ancient, as if there were no living creatures other than Zhou Chen and his companions.

Until the first wave of monsters launched a surprise attack.

Just as the two motorcycles passed a flat area, a dull, strange noise suddenly came from afar. Zhou Chen, who was focused on driving, had his shoulder grabbed by Lu Qingning on the back seat. She shouted, "Twist the throttle! Get behind a tree!"

Before he could turn around and see what was happening, the Netherflame Lion beside the car sprang up even faster, spewing out deep red flames shrouded in black smoke.

boom!

Flames roared!

It wasn't until the acid bomb collided with the flames in mid-air, scattering residual sparks and acid everywhere, that Zhou Chen could finally see the enemy in the distance—

Three giant brown-green toads that blend almost seamlessly into their surroundings.

They were several times larger than the round stone blocks used to stop cars by the roadside, emerging from the swamp full of fallen leaves and decaying soil, and remotely releasing acid bombs at the passersby.

hum!

Zhou Chen accelerated and successfully hid under a tree.

Lu Qingning quickly jumped out of the car. At the same time, Han Baobao's electromagnetic cannon scorpion had already climbed onto the trunk of a giant tree. Its pincers and scorpion tail were raised to aim, and it fired three bolts of lightning with a bang!

Sizzle—!

A beam of bright blue electromagnetic light suddenly pierced through the air, and a strong, acrid smell filled the air. In an instant, a loud bang came from afar, and filthy silt surged up like waves crashing on the shore, instantly covering the swamp.

*Pfft swish swish*

Muddy water fell like raindrops, and wisps of smoke drifted through the forest.

"Roar!"

The Netherflame Lion charged forward, dragging the mangled giant toads out of the mud to prevent them from sinking to the bottom.

There are two large and one small stars; the large one is a two-star constellation, and the small one is a one-star constellation.

Zhou Chen stopped his motorcycle in front of Lu Qingning, who glanced at him and said, "Don't ride recklessly, or you'll get stuck in a mud pit."

"No way."

He didn't think his eyesight was that bad.

The group arrived at the giant toad's corpse, and Hua Ning smiled and said, "A bronze-tier monster, the Mud Toad, a great start!"

"Zhou Chen," Lu Qingning suddenly said, "Did you remember the information I gave you a few days ago?"

Zhou Chen understood what she wanted to ask and said directly, "A complete corpse costs 50,000 after tax, a card costs 30,000, a venom gland costs 15,000 each, the purified venom costs 1,000 per gram, and the remaining tissues add up to about 5,000."

An intact corpse...

It's probably hopeless.

The electromagnetic cannon of the electromagnetic cannon scorpion is quite powerful; all three toads are missing arms and legs.

"You've memorized it well."

Lu Qingning nodded in satisfaction, opened the space bag Zhou Chen handed her, took out gloves, tools and corrosion-resistant clothing from it, and said to Han Baobao, "Han Baobao, go on guard duty. I'll collect the venom glands and venom, and then make a card."

A professional adventurer who wants to maximize their profits must know how to dissect monsters and extract valuable materials from them, rather than turning everything into cards.

Although Lu Qingning, who is under eighteen years old, is a graceful young woman, she has been exploring the secret realm for more than half a year and has even independently learned about monster anatomy.

He is many times stronger than some card masters who have reached the beginner level but have never entered the secret realm.

The corpse of the mud toad had a terrible, pungent odor, and many small insects crawled all over it. The pustules on its back, the size of a baby's fist, oozed poisonous blood, making it extremely disgusting.

Lu Qingning seemed oblivious and began dissecting the body with seriousness.

This posture made Zhou Chen suppress his nausea, holding the anatomical reference book used in the Water Marsh Secret Realm, and help her with her work.

Before entering the Water Marsh Secret Realm, the other party gave him a document, the most important part of which was the types of monsters, the materials dropped by the monsters, and their prices.

He had already memorized this information perfectly, after all, this was all valuable intelligence!

While the internet offers a wealth of information, it also contains countless false and incomplete pieces of information, requiring others to possess a certain level of discernment.

Zhou Chen has already suffered quite a bit.

Chapter 27: First Dissection (Please continue reading!!!)

Lu Qingning moved quickly.

Two venom glands were successfully extracted from the three mud toads; the remaining one was abandoned due to damage to the venom gland.

The venom was stored in two canisters, but unfortunately, after purification, only about 10 grams remain.

The total value of the materials is currently around 40,000 yuan.

Lu Qingning relaxed her tense body and turned to ask, "Did you understand the steps I took?"

Zhou Chen nodded. "More or less."

"Then you can come and get the next one."

Without hesitation, she handed over the logistical task, and then said, "Put the blank card on the card reader for me."

Lu Qingning didn't want the poisonous toad's bodily fluids to contaminate the blank card.

The corpse on the ground had been dismantled so badly that there was hardly any intact material left. It would be better to just make cards directly.

In the blink of an eye, the three blank cards turned to ashes.

Lu Qingning's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and Hua Ning couldn't stop laughing, "I'd heard you had a dark face, but I didn't expect it to be true."

"What? You lost all your gacha pulls?" Han Baobao, who was on guard ahead, turned around upon hearing the voice and said helplessly, "I told you not to touch them unless absolutely necessary..."

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Lu Qingning originally wanted to make a card to show Zhou Chen.

Unexpectedly, it all failed.

Zhou Chen pulled out a large bottle of mineral water with concern, "Wash yourself? Your bodily fluids are toxic."

"..."

Lu Qingning finished washing and took off her gloves without expression, then turned off the headlight. "I'm leaving everything to you now. Be prepared."

"Ooh!"

He nodded hastily.

Just as they were about to set off, Han Baobao warned, "Monsters are coming! Prepare to fight!"

Lu Qingning turned her head at the sound, and the Netherflame Lion roared and charged to the front.

This time, the monsters came from the towering trees all around. Accompanied by a series of soft cracking sounds, four or five giant gray-shelled worms that looked like centipedes, centipedes, and water fleas came into view.

They coiled around the thick tree trunks, their sharp chelicerae constantly waving, and their meat grinder-like mouthparts emitting strange crunching sounds.

Zhou Chen: "It's a giant, armored louse."

next moment.

The giant lice, with their hardened shells, rolled down from the height like speeding motorcycles, curled up into round tires!

Active Skill - [Armored Assault]!

"Silly treasure! Left!"

Lu Qingning's voice rang out simultaneously.

As Zhou Chen watched the monster hurtling towards him, he hurriedly dodged to the side, but Lu Qingning and Han Baobao were much faster than him.

Sizzle—!

Electromagnetic beams flickered in the forest.

It can be seen that the electromagnetic cannon scorpion has already climbed to a higher position, using Han Baobao's vision to lock onto the target, and its chelicerae and tail needles are aimed at the armored giant louse and fired straight at it.

Following closely behind was the Netherflame Lion, which charged straight at the monster. Instead of spitting out black and red Netherflame, it used its physical body to ram into the armored giant louse from the side.

"Roar--!!"

Ouch!

In the blink of an eye.
