The King of Beast Trainers

Chapter 54 - 48 Shocked Cat_1

In the bustling streets, Lu Ran was wandering around, incredibly bored.

Manager Ying said that the Necromancer would be operating nearby, and all he needed to do was to wait patiently like guarding a tree stump for rabbits.

But he had already been strolling for ten minutes, having spent 50 yuan on street food, and yet the Necromancer hadn\'t appeared?

If this continued, he would be full, and he had originally planned to have a big meal with his master in the evening.

"Wow, ka..."

[There are so many people, I\'m going to die of overcrowding!]

At this moment, the King of Sudden Death was placed on Lu Ran\'s shoulder, the little guy nervously observing his surroundings, suspecting everyone to be a bad person.

Another five minutes passed.

Lu Ran had already ordered a grilled durian and, taking advantage of the hot and fragrant moment, began to eat.

However, before he could take a few bites, Lu Ran suddenly wrinkled his nose.

He caught a familiar scent.

Ever since he executed Super Beast Mimicry with Mr. Husky, his sense of smell had been getting increasingly sharper...

This familiar scent, which wasn\'t apparent at first, could be problematic if it was also found around Corpse Hill.

Lu Ran remained calm, feeling a thrill in his heart, while the King of Sudden Death tensed up, ready to play dead at any moment. Not far away, a skinny youth dressed in a black hoodie also seemed to be looking for something.

When his gaze landed on Lu Ran eating grilled durian by the cart, his eyes shone brightly, and he swallowed subconsciously.

Such a rich and fragrant soul aroma!!!

Devour him! Devour him! Devouring him would definitely help me level up!!!

Inner temptation was making the skinny youth struggle to maintain his composure.

But in the bustling market, the skinny youth clearly didn\'t dare to act recklessly. He hesitated for a moment and slowly approached Lu Ran.

When he got close to Lu Ran, the youth looked at the little lizard on his shoulder and started speaking, "Hey, brother—"

"What\'s up?" Lu Ran turned to him, puzzled.

"You\'re a Beast Trainer, right? That lizard of yours looks extraordinary!" n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Lu Ran smiled, "You have a good eye, my \'Red-eyed Eagle Lizard\' was just tested today. Its Attribute is Thunder!"

"Thunder Attribute? Awesome!" Upon hearing that Lu Ran\'s Pet Beast had just completed its Attribute testing, the skinny youth\'s expression brightened.

So it\'s a weakling that hasn\'t awakened its Attribute yet?!

What kind of luck have I had these past few days?!

"Are you a Beast Trainer too?" asked Lu Ran, looking toward the other. But the skinny youth subconsciously took a step back: "Yeah... brother, what are you eating, it stinks to death."

"It\'s grilled durian, it\'s very fragrant," Lu Ran said.

"Is that something people should eat?" The skinny youth seemed quite speechless and couldn\'t bear to see his chosen prey eat such things, for fear the soul he devoured later would have a strange taste.

"Haha, I think it\'s pretty good," Lu Ran said, scratching his head with a shy, student-like mannerism.

"Stop eating, are you free? I\'ll take you to something better, my treat."

"Really?" Lu Ran thought the other person\'s luring tactics were too naive, but at this time, he couldn\'t be bothered to show too much wariness, so he went along with it: "I just arrived in Jinling City for a trip today, and I haven\'t found any good food yet."

"Isn\'t that a coincidence? I\'m a local from Jinling and I also became a Beast Trainer recently. None of my friends are Beast Trainers, so I\'m lacking someone in the same trade to talk to. Come on, I\'ll treat you!" the skinny youth became even more hospitable, smiling as he spoke.

"Fine! You seem like a pretty good guy," Lu Ran chose to go along with him.

This Necromancer will probably lead him to a secluded place.

Then, when he\'s off guard, he\'ll launch a sudden attack.

Lu Ran ramped up his vigilance to 200% and followed the other guy in a certain direction.

"I know of a private kitchen hidden in an old residential area, the kind only locals know about; let\'s eat there."

The skinny youth seemed extremely hospitable, showing no signs of abnormality so far.

Before long, the two arrived at an old residential area, but this place didn\'t seem to be inhabited at all.

It looked more like an abandoned building that had been deserted for a long time.

"This is the place you mentioned? Are you sure there\'s a private kitchen here?" Lu Ran expressed his doubts at this point.

"There is." The Necromancer continued to try to lead Lu Ran inside.

However, at this moment, Lu Ran was no longer interested in going further and stopped, looking at him: "I\'m saying, this place can\'t possibly have people, are you fooling me?"

As soon as Lu Ran finished speaking, the Necromancer ahead turned around and flung his arm, throwing a Flying Knife directly at Lu Ran. His technique was very practiced, and coupled with the physical prowess of a Beast Trainer, the throw had enough force and speed to kill instantly!

The skinny Necromancer\'s intention was very clear: he wanted to take Lu Ran down first to prevent him from escaping to Infinite City. This tactic had worked for him several times before; no one had ever been able to react in time!

"You talk too much! Time to hit the road!" The Flying Knife was thrown, and the skinny Necromancer revealed his true colors, confident that Lu Ran was already done for at this moment.

However, the very next moment, accompanied by a "Duang~" sound, the Necromancer, who had just turned around, appeared a bit stunned.

The small secret weapon-like Flying Knife he had thrown was now knocked down onto the ground, while Lu Ran behind it was holding a Longsword.

It seemed like he had used the sword to knock down the Flying Knife.

Lu Ran pointed the sword at the Necromancer: "What are you doing?"

The skinny youth was taken aback: ???

At this moment, the skinny youth had the sinking feeling that he had kicked an iron plate. What was happening?

In his heart, he sensed a hint of alarm, suddenly feeling he might have bitten off more than he could chew.
