After some of them rested, which was not too long now that they had been infected by Eleven, they decided to continue catching the Earth Rat as training.

For the sake of their future, they could only allow the Earth Rats to suffer.

However, before they could begin, the White Stream Village Committee loudspeaker suddenly rang.

The broadcast was loud, and Shi Yu and the others, who were far from the center of the village, heard it clearly.

At that moment, when they heard the contents of the broadcast, the expressions of Shi Yu and the others changed.

“Take note of all villagers, the attention of all villagers! The city has issued a yellow warning alarm for the Beast Tide. I repeat, the city has issued a yellow warning alarm for the wave of beasts.

“There has already been a certain scale of beasts gathering within the city walls, and the scale shows signs of increasing.

“Please make appropriate preparations in accordance with the defense guidelines ..”

“What the fuck!” Surrounded by other voices, Chen Kai could not help but vent his emotions. Zhuang Yue and Yu Jingjing also clearly looked confused and nervous.

Install Animals?

Some of them are no strangers to that term.

Ten years ago, the Ping Cheng District was rebuilt precisely because it had experienced the Beast Tide.

At that time, even though everyone was young, it was impossible for them not to know such things.

The Beast Tide coming again???

“Not good.”

While the four of them were dumbfounded, the middle-aged farmer patrolling the farm came to their side.

“Kids, today's situation is special. Why don't you come back first?”

“Uncle, how about the broadcast just now?” Shi Yu asked.

“I'm not sure either, but the animals on the snow mountain might be restless again. Yellow warning. Sounds pretty serious. If things escalate, we may have to evacuate.” The middle-aged man could not figure it out either, but judging from his expression, he was not too confused.

At this moment, Shi Yu also reacted. It's not time to panic.

Unlike 10 years ago, a high city wall had been built between Ping Cheng and a dozen cities and snow mountains below.

The Beast Tamer troops of the Beast Tamer Association were stationed outside the city walls and were the first line of defense against the Beast Tide.

The so-called warning was simply to warn the residents of the surrounding city. That doesn't mean that there really is a danger.

If there really was a danger of them breaking into the city, it wouldn't be as simple as a yellow disaster warning.

“Why don't we go and see it?” Chen Kai suggested.

Icefield City was located at the border of the country, and Ping Cheng's subordinates and surrounding cities were even adjacent to the snow mountains filled with ferocious beasts.

This was also why only Ping Cheng and the two surrounding districts were the first to bear the brunt of the beast wave 10 years ago.

“What do you think? At a time like this, there should be barricades both inside and outside the city walls. Aren't you going to cause trouble if you go?” Zhuang Yue said.

“Come back first,” Shi Yu said.

Although he felt that nothing would happen, the current atmosphere was tense. It is better not to cause trouble for others by playing Earth Mouse casually.

Whack-A-Mole can be done at any time. It was more important to understand the Beast Tide's early warning after returning to the Beast Tamer Association.

The other three nodded. They did not have much desire to fight the Earth Mouse right now. After packing up, they quickly returned to Ping Cheng.

Icefield City, Ping Cheng District, Beast Tamer Association.

After some of them ended the Earth Rat mission, they explained the White Stream Village warning to the staff at the front desk of the mission hall and asked what was going on.

“It..”.

The staff at the front desk shook his head and said, “I'm not too sure either.”

“But it seems like this is not the first time this month. Twice before was a blue warning. Is it yellow this time?”

Against this answer, Shi Yu and the others looked extremely puzzled. This is equivalent to saying nothing …

Chen Kai was about to ask something when someone called his name from afar.

“Chen Kai, Zhuang Yue!”

The voice came from far away, making Chen Kai and Zhuang Yue shiver. They unconsciously looked.

Shi Yu and Yu Jingjing also looked up and realized that the honest-looking, bespectacled Beast Tamer had entered.

The other party was only in his thirties, but his hair looked rather sparse. He must be an expert.

“Teacher Zhang ..” says Chen Kai and Zhuang Yue.

“Why are you here?”

This person was a teacher from the Chen Kai and Zhuang Yue schools.

“I was nearby. I just saw you guys chatting in a group chat, so I came to see it. I didn't expect to see you guys.”

On the way back, Chen Kai and Zhuang Yue had shared the yellow warning of the beast wave with their classmates in the classroom group chat. They didn't expect the teacher to see it.

So you guys were actually chatting in a class group with the teacher?  Shi Yu looked at the group of strange students and thought to himself.

Under normal circumstances, shouldn't students not bring their teachers and create groups to play by themselves?

“Both?” The person who was summoned as Master Zhang looked at Shi Yu and Yu Jingjing.

Chen Kai said, “They are my friends, Beast Tamers from another school.”

Teacher Zhang smiled and nodded. “You must be wondering about the Beast Tide.” alert

“Yes, Master, is the situation serious this time? Don't tell me the same thing happened again.” Chen Kai knew that his teacher was a professional Beast Tamer and had to know more insider information, so he immediately asked.

“This is too noisy. Let's talk outside, ” Teacher Zhang said.

None of them have any objections. They left the mission hall and began to surround the buildings around the Beast Tamer Association.

Although he did not know this Master Zhang, Shi Yu, who wanted to know the situation, also left with them.

If there really was any danger, he would have to make preparations in advance and escape to the city with Eleven.

After all, the houses around the city center would become expensive after the tide.

Building a house in the countryside or even in the suburbs may be cheap, but also close to the wilderness.

That's too dangerous!

On the stone road, Teacher Zhang looked at a group of small children and said, “You don't need to worry too much. This is very different from ten years ago. The protective facilities around the snow mountain work very well.

“Even if there really is a danger, the Beast Tamer Association will be able to react quickly. If the Ping Cheng group is not strong enough to survive, the Beast Tamers in the city will naturally come.”

“If the Beast Taming Forces in the city cannot defend it, the Forces in the surrounding cities will also provide support soon. Currently, these creatures on this snow mountain were no longer enough to pose a threat to Icefield City.”

Chen Kai asked, “So, Teacher, you mean Beast Tide might appear again?”

“Currently, it's just a small-scale gathering of beasts. This is much lower than the sudden change ten years ago. It was much bigger than that..”.

Zhuang Yue said, “Why did that happen? Aren't those beasts all ice-elemental beings? Compared to the city, they may prefer the snow mountain environment.”

“The books say that the lack of food and resources creates pressure from the competition for them and is the main reason for the emergence of animal tides.” Shi Yu looked towards the snow mountain. “But this should not be the main reason of the snow mountain Beast Tide, right…? After all, Beast Tides with this kind of reasoning were usually very frequent. There are signs, and it will not happen as suddenly as ten years ago.”

Teacher Zhang looked at Shi Yu and nodded. “One stop. But we don't know exactly why. The trigger of the beast wave ten years ago is still an unsolved mystery. But in terms of speculation, the answer is within Icefield City. Do you know the history of this city?”

They shake their heads.

“Actually that's not history. After all, it has not been fully proven. Right now, it's just a guess.

“According to archaeological discoveries, there should not have been a snow mountain environment around Icefield City from two thousand years ago.

“This was the territory of the Beast Tamer tribe that was somewhat developed in the ancient country at that time. But then, an ice dragon flew from afar and landed in the surrounding mountains.

“This ice dragon is very strong. Even if just staying around him, it had indirectly triggered the descent of the mini Ice Age, making this Beast Tamer tribe suffer indescribably.

“Then, this Beast Tamer tribe decided to repel the Ice Dragon. They formed an army and started a protracted war with the Ice Dragon in the mountains.

“Said that this snow mountain was formed at that time.”

Shi Yu asked, “Which side wins?”

Teacher Zhang said, “It should be the Beast Tamer tribe that wins. There was the ruins of the Ice Dragon on the snow mountain. It was said that the Ice Dragon skeleton was sealed within. It was sealed by the Beast Tamers back then.

“Even now, there is still a dragon aura coming out of the ruins from time to time, but this has been two thousand years. Even the ice dragon should have been completely dead.

“There is speculation at this time that the sealed ice dragon turned into a spirit and affected the ferocious beasts on the snow mountain. The dragon aura thus caused the ferocious beasts to lose their senses and take revenge on the city.”

Shi Yu and the others looked towards the snow mountain again.

The Ice Dragon's corpse?

This is the first time they have heard of this.

Teacher Zhang pointed to a giant stone statue not far ahead and said, “Did you see that?

“That's one of the ancient artifacts excavated by archaeologists. It is said that the stone giant is a totem of that tribe.”

As they chatted, they had already arrived at a large garden.

In the middle of the garden was a giant stone statue. The stone giant was an extraordinary elemental life form. It was another kind of pet. It was placed here to enhance the historical heritage of Ping Cheng District and make this place look more historic.

“The tribe used this thing to defeat the ice dragon?” Chen Kai looked at the stone statue. He hadn't noticed this before. He had thought it was a decoration, but he had not expected it to be an ancient item from Icefield City.

The gazes of Shi Yu and his comrades were fixed on the gigantic stone statue. As they stared, Shi Yu's heart suddenly accelerated.

His brain rumbled, and his telepathic talent seemed to have been passively influential. He heard a strange sound.

‘Not like that ..’

‘Not like that ..’

This sudden voice made Shi Yu shudder.

However, when he looked around, he realized that there was nothing strange about Master Zhang, Chen Kai, and the others.

Suppressing the shock in his heart, Shi Yu looked back at the stone statue. His face turned pale.

Please don't tell me that the sound came from this stone statue. What the hell happened to me?

This stone statue had no signs of life at all.

Can telepathy hear only the thoughts of living beings? If the stone statue was abnormal, it would not be placed here!

‘Not like that ..’

Shi Yu could still hear the voice.
