The King of Beast Trainers

A large cat with yellow fur and black stripes...

A stray cat?

"Be more specific," Lu Ran said.

The intelligence of a crow is comparable to that of a five-year-old child.

To actually understand its report, one would need to ask several times.

For Lu Ran, the easier the animal's intelligence, the easier it was for him to communicate with it using Psychic Sensing.

If he was dealing with an individual of low intelligence, he could only read their feelings based on their instinctual behavior.

For example, communicating with insects was rather difficult.

However, Lu Ran felt that Psychic Sensing was still much more useful than spirit contact.

Every Beast Trainer could, in fact, communicate simply with their contracted pet beast.

Both relied on the contract's inherent psychic link, using mental communication, but the drawback was that it could only happen with the contracted beast.

Compared to this, Lu Ran's Psychic Sensing didn't restrict communication partners; even without a contract, he could communicate, which was more convenient.

Besides, whether it was mental communication or Psychic Sensing, both were quite difficult to use at the beginning and required gradual practice.

Lu Ran learned it two years in advance, which allowed him to avoid many detours in communicating with pet beasts.

[Big... bigger... a bigger big cat.] The crow looked at Mr. Husky and described again.

"Woof?" Mr. Husky was taken aback.

Beside him, Lu Ran's face darkened. You call that a cat? Bigger than Mr. Husky— that's got to be a tiger!

Though, to be fair, a tiger is indeed a member of the cat family.

"Nonsense, how could there be a tiger around here?" Lu Ran said, but the next moment, Mr. Husky thoughtfully looked in a certain direction.

Its nose quivered as it picked up the scent of a ferocious beast.

The dog's sense of smell was inherently sensitive, and it became easier to catch certain scents from the air after awakening its Wind Attribute strength.

"Arf!" Mr. Husky alerted Lu Ran.

"No way, a real tiger?" It wasn't just the crow's report; now even Mr. Husky sensed a ferocious beast approaching, and Lu Ran was somewhat surprised.

This was no dangerous Secret Realm! How could there be ferocious beasts here?

In Green Sea City, there were no wild tigers, the only place Lu Ran could think of with tigers was... the wildlife park had a few.

Surely it couldn't have been a tiger escape from the wildlife park?

"Good job, I'll bring you a treat another day!" Lu Ran said, and the satisfied black Crow left.

[The King is wise!]

Foodie! In Lu Ran's view, every animal was a foodie; just a bit of food could easily win them over.

At this time, Lu Ran definitely didn't have the heart to continue having Mr. Husky practice swordsmanship. His brows furrowed deeply, and he pondered.

If there really was an escaped wild tiger, he had to contact the fire department quickly to prevent it from injuring people.

Whether it was the nearby park or the residential area, there were often many elderly people and children around.

"Mr. Husky, let's go," Lu Ran said.

He wasn't worried about his own safety.

Setting aside Mr. Husky's combat ability, which had already greatly improved, and just being a tiger aside, even if he faced real danger, he still had the biggest trump card.

It wasn't the Divine Deer Pendant.

But Infinite City Teleportation!

Within just 10 seconds.

He could teleport from Blue Star straight to Infinite City.

Even if a nuclear bomb were headed his way, as long as he had a warning in advance, Lu Ran wouldn't be scared.

Sometimes Lu Ran even imagined, if someone in reality coveted his treasures, he could just hole up in Infinite City, level up to 100, and then come back!

However, unfortunately, bad people don't write on their faces that they are bad people. It's essential to be cautious.

"Arf." At this moment, Mr. Husky nodded and followed by Lu Ran's side, both heading in the direction of the scent Mr. Husky had picked up.

About a kilometer in, Lu Ran held his breath, leaned against a tree with Mr. Husky, and looked at a giant beast standing in the mountainous terrain...

Hiss...

Lu Ran's eyes widened in disbelief, for before him stood a Northeast Tiger with a shoulder height of at least 1.5 meters and a body length of more than 3 meters!

It's enormous!

Compared to this behemoth, Mr. Husky, now comparable in size to a large breed dog, appeared quite petite.

"Roar..." This Northeast Tiger had clearly noticed the approach of Lu Ran and company, looking in the direction of the tree and letting out a deep roar.

"This isn't an ordinary tiger, it's a Tiger Beast that has evolved to the extraordinary level," Lu Ran observed and quickly figured out why the tiger was so big. Clearly, like Mr. Husky before, it had been strengthened through a contract, completing a preliminary evolution!

This size of a Northeast Tiger was far more terrifying than the Demon Cat. What's going on? Where's its Beast Trainer? It can't possibly be wild.

"Uhhhh—" At the same time, to Lu Ran's dismay, far from being scared, Mr. Husky looked eager to fight when faced with such a fierce beast.

"Stop it, we don't understand the situation yet. This guy must have a Beast Trainer, right? Hurting it might cost us money," Lu Ran couldn't make heads or tails of it.

"And this guy is a first-class protected animal, if we take it down, Boss Lu will definitely end up behind bars." Then, he made a joke to Mr. Husky.

"Woof!" Mr. Husky glared.

A Beast Trainer for the other side?

Don't be joking.

It had picked up the scent of human blood from the tiger's breath.

If there was one, it was probably inside the tiger by now.

Lu Ran: ?

"What." Lu Ran was stunned.

He seemed to think of something and quickly reacted by taking out his phone, attempting to dial a number.

If it were just a normal escape of a ferocious beast, he would have called the fire department, but clearly, the situation had changed.

"Connect already." While Mr. Husky was facing off with the Northeast Tiger, Lu Ran dialed on his phone, leaning against a tree.
