Chapter 29: Chapter 29: The Executor’s Anger
Translator: 549690339
As it was nearing daylight, Chu Mu finally managed to calm the hunger cycle of the nightmare demons.
What was worth being happy about was that Chu Mu’s own strength had finally improved due to the continuous battles and the torture of the nightmare demons, reaching the realm of the Three Thoughts Soul Master.
However, much to Chu Mu’s chagrin, he had barely raised his thoughts when the White Nightmare Demon unexpectedly advanced a rank again, reaching the ninth stage!
“It seems that if my strength doesn’t distance itself from the nightmare demons, I’ll have to hide behind my soul pets and fight in the future.” Chu Mu was utterly helpless.
“Let’s see how much this guy eats after reaching the ninth stage, I hope it won’t be too much, at least allow me to use one soul skill.”
Chu Mu’s own realm was much higher than those of the soul pet trainers on the Nightmare Demon Island, but unfortunately, his White Nightmare Demon limited him to the same level as them…
“When the Green Nightmare Demon is raised to the Second Form, it can partic.i.p.ate in battles. I don’t know at what stage I have to feed the White Nightmare Demon to make it fight.”
Chu Mu sighed. If he could endure until the White Nightmare Demon partic.i.p.ated in battle, his strength would have another significant increase, but unfortunately, the White Nightmare Demon was even more special than the Green Nightmare Demon, and there was little chance that it would partic.i.p.ate in battles in the short term.
At daylight, Chu Mu slowly returned to the camp.
“Eh, how did you get injured?” Ting Yu quicldy noticed the wounds on Chu Mu’s arm and face and asked in surprise.
“It’s nothing, just need to apply some medicine.” Chu Mu said without a care and took out some injury medicine.
“Let me help you…” Ting Yu took the healing medicine and offered to help Chu Mil.
Chu Mu nodded, turned his arm inward, and let Ting Yu help bandage him.
“How did you get hurt, did you go into the island?” Ting Yu continued to ask.
“I didn’t pay attention during the battle and was ambushed by a soul pet, it’s no big deal.” Chu Mu replied.
“You’re really daring, risking yourself right before a life-and-death battle, is your Little MO Xie still able to fight?” Ting Yu queried.
“Yeah.” Chu Mu just nodded.
As a matter of fact, after last night’s continuous battles, MO Xie hardly had any combat power left, and without any special Recovery Elixir, it would take at least five days to recover from the numerous injuries to full power.
As for soul crystal training, Chu Mu would have to wait until MO Xie had fully recovered to carry it out. The energy release of soul crystals would put the soul pet into a dormant period, how long this dormancy would last, Chu Mu couldn’t guarantee.
Thus, the priority is for Chu Mu to quickly restore MO Xie’s combat power within these four days. If he fails to make the top ten, Chu Mu will be eliminated!
“Strange, it’s getting noisy outside.” As Ting Yu finished bandaging Chu Mu’s wounds, there were also noises coming from outside.
Chu Mu glanced outside the window and faintly heard someone saying something in the noisy commotion. It seemed that several early-rising teenagers had discovered several corpses in the dense forest.
“I’ll go take a look, you seem very tired, go ahead and rest.” Ting Yu found these matters quite interesting and quickly left the wooden house.
Chu Mu was indeed very tired now. After treating his wounds, he laid down on his bed and casually placed the Little Green Worm hiding in his clothes on the head of the bed.
“Sleep, you timid little fellow.” Chu Mu patted the Little Green Worm and laid down to sleep.
Chu Mu had a deep sleep and fell asleep almost as soon as he laid down.
However, not long after, he felt a sharp pain in his toes and suddenly woke up! “Executor has asked us to a.s.semble, hurry up and get up…” Ting Yu’s voice immediately sounded in his ear.
Chu Mu stuffed the Little Green Worm from the head of the bed into his clothes and splashed cold water on his face!
“Hiss! Chu Mu gasped, suddenly realizing that he still had a wound on his face. The cold water splashed on it, and it felt like he’d been cut again!
During these three months, Executor and the others had been staying in their camp, not bothering these teenagers, which provided a very free environment for everyone.
However, this was just a facade. The Executor was always observing all the Soul Pet Masters on the island. They knew exactly the level of each Soul Pet Master and what Soul Pets they possessed.
The real goal of Nightmare Demon Palace was not to enjoy killing, but to cultivate and select people with potential in this extremely cruel environment and have them serve their Nightmare Demon Palace.
Therefore, the Executor forbade all Soul Pet Masters on the island from killing each other before the Life-and -Death Battle, as most Soul Pet Masters here still only have their First Soul Pet, and there would be many factors besides strength affecting their victory or death.
Zhou Shengmo captured a High-level Soul Pet Hyena Wolf and became the first person on the island to reach the High-Level Psychic Soul Pupil. He naturally attracted the attention of the Executor. To them, he was a good seedling and very valuable.
In fact, the Executor had also listed a rough list during this time. Zhou Shengmo’s name was first on the list, followed by Wind Valley, Tang Xian, Ting Yu, Ge Qing, and Luo Chen. Even if the Life-and-Death Battle hadn’t started yet, they could predict that these people would get spots in the Top Ten.
However, just as the final selection time was approaching, Zhou Shengmo, who had attracted the Executor’s attention, died unexpectedly in the forest!
Not only that, Tang Xian and Luo Chen, who were both considered seedlings, also died in the same place, meaning that three seedlings on the Executor’s list were instantly wiped out!
When the news reached them this morning, the head Executor Cao Yi’s face turned green with anger, and he scolded all the Executors on the island. In the end, he ordered the Executors to summon all those slaves for questioning.
“Lord Cao, it doesn’t matter much if those two died, but Zhou Shengmo, Tang Xian, and Luo Chen were of good quality. Their death will be difficult for us to explain.” Executor Gu Lei whispered.
Cao Yi’s face was still livid. In this Henghai area, there were many islands similar to Green Nightmare Demon Island. These islands were completely isolated from the outside world. According to the system of Nightmare Demon Palace, each island would carry out this kind of selection.
If they could dig out some very potential and powerful people for the Nightmare Demon Palace, then the heads and Executors of that island could reap corresponding benefits: wealth, power, rewards…
It could be said that the Executors on the island all relied on these young Soul Pet Masters for their own gain. Cao Yi and the others thought that the quality of the young Soul Pet Masters on the island this time was quite good, and they could get many benefits from the higher- ups, but who would have expected such a thing to happen in the end!
