Global Beast Mastery: Only I Can See the Hints

A Beast Master with no limbs?

Charles was momentarily stunned. If a Beast Master had lost their limbs after becoming one, that would be understandable.

But if someone could still become a Beast Master even without limbs, and was strong enough to make Rex feel like they were not his match, then that Beast Master would undoubtedly be far from ordinary. They would possess unimaginable abilities.

With this information in mind, Charles politely declined Rex's offer to team up.

He was different from others. After all, he had a map. As long as he could get into the forest and reach The Land of the Fallen Divine Beasts, his advantage would be far greater than anyone else's.

In terms of Beast Master levels, Charles was only a Level 5 Beast Master for now, while many of the Beast Masters entering the Lnfinity Lsles forest would likely be Level 6, putting Charles at a disadvantage.

With this thought, Charles couldn't help but feel a bit helpless. While his own Beast Master level had improved, Max, Mousie, Mia, and Little Gold were all leveling up very slowly.

Take Max, for example. Max was the first mystical beast Charles contracted, and now Max was also the highest-level mystical beast in his collection.

As for Mia and Mousie, they were both at Level 36.

Now that Charles was a Level 5 Beast Master, his mystical beasts were still in their 30s, which left Charles feeling a little helpless.

Compared to other mystical beasts, Max and the others had already leveled up quite quickly. It could only be said that Charles had become a Beast Master in a relatively short period of time, and his own strength had increased so rapidly.

Now, Charles was no longer satisfied with the pace at which Max and the others were leveling up. He wanted to increase the level of his mystical beasts as quickly as possible. In addition to training, it would be best if he could find a place rich in various elemental energies, as that would significantly accelerate their leveling process.

The Land of the Fallen Divine Beasts, or perhaps the area within the Lnfinity Lsles forest that was suspected to be the home of a divine beast, should meet such a requirement.

His goal was to raise Max and the others' levels in the shortest time possible, ideally reaching the level required for promotion quickly.

This was particularly important because Charles was uncertain whether Max, Mousie, Mia, and Little Gold would need hard-to-find promotion materials when they advanced.

Mousie, in particular, was a problem. The materials Mousie required for promotion were extremely rare and peculiar, involving all sorts of dark entities.

Aside from the issue of quickly leveling up his mystical beasts, Charles also had to focus on gathering the materials needed for Bellamy, the legendary blacksmith giant, to reinforce his Black Gold Long Knife. The materials listed on the reinforcement list were all Golden Quality metals.

Out of the 10 different Golden Quality materials listed on Bellamy's list, Charles had already collected the Cryolite for the ice attribute.

Cryolite [Golden Quality]: A top-tier ice attribute metal forging material that significantly enhances a weapon's ability to absorb, conduct, and withstand ice attribute energy.

He also had the fire attribute material, Red Flame Stone.

Red Flame Stone [Golden Quality]: A top-tier fire attribute metal forging material that greatly enhances a weapon's ability to absorb, conduct, and withstand fire attribute energy.

Bellamy's list had a total of ten materials, each corresponding to the attributes of gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, ice, light, poison, and darkness.

This task had to be done gradually. In the area where the divine beasts resided, the probability of encountering rare alchemy materials and forging materials was much higher than in ordinary places, and the quality would be better.

Perhaps during this mission, Charles would manage to collect a few more of the materials he needed from the list.

If, by the time he reached the Cyber Academy at The Haunted Marsh, Charles could upgrade the Black Gold Long Knife from an orange-quality weapon to a Golden Quality weapon that even Level 9 Beast Masters would envy, that would be fantastic!

After carefully considering the things he needed to do in the coming period, what to focus on, and what to collect, Charles suddenly felt that his goals were becoming clearer, and he was filled with a greater sense of anticipation.

He looked forward to his mystical beasts becoming stronger after their promotion, and he also looked forward to acquiring a second Golden Quality piece of equipment.

...

Time passed quickly, and online, the situation regarding the Lnfinity Lsles exploded like a bomb, spreading everywhere.

In addition to the Haunted Marsh's powerful forces blocking the Lnfinity Lsles forest, news of the suspected divine beast and the possible rare forging and alchemy materials within the forest caused many Abyssal Depths Beast Masters, who were previously unaware, to rush toward the Lnfinity Lsles.

In just a few hours, the news about the Lnfinity Lsles spread throughout the entire Abyssal Depths. Countless ordinary citizens and Beast Masters were fervently condemning the selfish actions of blocking the forest, hoping that the Abyssal Depths Beast Masters would unite and fight back together.

The most affected weren't the powerful forces from the Haunted Marsh, but the officials of Celestial City.

Inside the Celestial City palace, Flint, known as the God of War of Celestial City, was tightly clenching his fists. In front of him stood the Emperor of Celestial City, Nathan, whose face still bore the marks of injury.

Nathan kept taking deep breaths, trying to calm his mind, but every time he thought of the countless online criticisms against Celestial City, blaming them for allowing the Haunted Marsh Beast Masters to act as they pleased in their country, his frustration deepened.

Nathan took a deep breath and said forcefully,

"Is this something we can stop if we want to? Damn it, those ignorant people don't realize that these are the powerful forces from the Haunted Marsh!"

"What else can we do except pretend we didn't see anything?"

"We can't do anything!"

"Idiots! Idiots! A bunch of idiots!"

Flint spoke quietly,

"Your Majesty, please calm down. The doctor said your injury hasn't fully healed..."

As the Emperor of Celestial City, Nathan directly interrupted Flint and said,

"Don't worry about me. Think about how to handle this. Celestial City has always been a neutral country with a great international reputation. Now that this has happened, we must find a way to restore it!"

Flint sighed. The whole country was in a boiling uproar now. On the internet, the loudest voices came from the citizens and Beast Masters of Celestial City.

They could no longer tolerate the Haunted Marsh Beast Masters running rampant and acting arrogantly in Celestial City.

It was like one day, a stranger suddenly broke into your home, eating your food, spending your money, and you couldn't even resist. You were even told you couldn't enter a certain part of your own house.

Any normal person would be unable to tolerate such a thing happening.

At this moment, Flint could only think of one thing: everything had been fine until now. Everyone had been ignoring this issue as if it hadn't happened at all. He didn't know who had stirred things up, causing the situation to spiral out of control.

After thinking for a moment, Flint suggested,

"Your Majesty, why don't we take the initiative to talk with the powerful forces of the Haunted Marsh? With how things are developing, they probably didn't expect this at all."

"All we need to do is give up a few spots, and that should be enough to calm everything down."

Nathan sighed. At this point, that was the only option. Otherwise, when the Abyssal Depths Beast Masters arrived in Celestial City, and if conflicts broke out with the Haunted Marsh Beast Masters, the consequences would be unimaginable.

If war broke out between the Haunted Marsh and the Abyssal Depths Beast Masters, there would be no turning back!

After confirming the response plan, Nathan gritted his teeth and said to Flint,

"Find out who caused all this. Who made Celestial City endure so much criticism and insult? And now, I have to face the Haunted Marsh's big powers and grovel to negotiate. I cannot tolerate this!"

Flint nodded. He would find out exactly who caused all this, and it would be dealt with severely.

Whoever it was, Celestial City would make them pay a painful price.

But for some reason, as Flint looked at the Emperor of Celestial City, Nathan's face still bearing the marks of injury, an odd thought crossed his mind:

"Could it be Charles?"

"It shouldn't be. Ezra is a Level 9 Beast Master. He could just bring Charles into the forest directly, Charles wouldn't need to do something like this."

"As long as it's not Charles, everything should be fine."

Flint definitely didn't want Ezra, a Level 9 Beast Master, to come to the Celestial City palace again. If that happened, the Emperor of Celestial City, Nathan, would definitely not be able to bear it!
