Clive frowned A mulitary squad! Are they the soldiers stationed at the training zone
open alded sure, but Cassian’s team and some milliary personnel are all teaming up to take down that shade Vernon Beast!
“And it looks like the temporary camp up ahead got hit by the Shadow Demon Beast too Everyone’s scattered and the camps been wrecked
Rafe raised an eyebrow Cassian’s there too? Those military guys with him aren’t just ordinary soldiers, they ve got their own agenda
Elmer puffed out his cheeks and muttered. “Could be Kael sent them himself. He’s always been secretly grooming his own people in the military to serve his own interests.”
Clive nodded. “The military isn’t clean either. Factional infighting is rampant. We can’t afford to trust them blindly”
With that, Clive locked his gaze on the Shadow Demon Beast.
“No wonder the Shadow Demon Beast that was attacking us suddenly stopped and bolted…”
It clicked for Clive, “It must’ve heard its companion calling for help.
Rafe pressed his hand to his injured shoulder, his face pale. “Two Pinnacle Level 6 Shadow Demon Beasts… No wonder it so quiet around here.”
Dora glanced at the Shadow Demon Beast lying weakly on the ground. The ferocity in its eyes was gone replaced by a
scattered crimson haze.
It let out a faint whimper, struggling to crawl toward the direction of the battle.
She pointed at the Shadow Demon Beast. “Looks like we lucked out.”
Clive instantly understood what Dora meant. Without hesitation, he gathered black lightning in his palm and said in a low commanding voice, “Let’s finish this quickly.”
Lioren became a streak, his wind blade slicing precisely at the old wound on the Shadow Demon Beast’s neck.
Rafe gritted his teeth against the pain, locking his energy gun onto the Shadow Demon Beast’s eyes and firing of a rapid burst to keep it off balance.
The Shadow Demon Beast let out a long, mournful howl that pierced through the rain, echoing far into the distance
Almost immediately, another furious howl answered from afar.
“It’s calling for its companion!” Dora said urgently. “Hurry!”
Clive’s eyes flashed with a fierce glint, and he bos ame a streak of black lightning, stabbing straight for the beast shem
Squish!
The lightning blade drove right through, making the Shadow Demon Beast’s body convulse violently Its blood red locked onto Clive, the last glimmer fading from them as it died
The massive body crashed to the ground with a thunderous thud
Clive dropped to one knee, gasping for breath That attack had dramed most of his crystal energy.
Loren mimediately moved up, staying alert and keeping a sharp watch on then surroundings

Huier quickly checked on Clive, worry in his voice “You alright?”
“I’m fine.” Clive said. He pulled out his military dagger and made quick work of the beast’s skull
The crystal core, about the size of a fist, tumbled out
It was nearly pitch black, with dark purple clouds swirling inside, just holding it, one could feel the shadow energy pulsing
withm
A Pinnacle Level 6 shadow-type crystal core, and a rare, special one at that.
Clive handed it straight to Dora without a second look. “Hold onto it.”
Dora cook the crystal core, cool to the touch, its energy flowed softly into her hand. She stashed it away in her Spatial Realm, along with the Shadow Demon Beast’s body.
The fur, bones, and claws of a Pinnacle Level 6 alien beast were premium
materials.
The rain washed away the dark purple bloodstains on the ground, but the savage energy lingering in the air still hadn’t fully dissipated.
In the distance, the sounds of another battle and the Shadow Demon Beast’s roars were fading away. It was clear the military squad was deliberately luring the second Shadow Demon Beast away from this area.
“The fighting sounds are getting quieter,” Clive said, listening intently. “The military must be withdrawing. They’re probably worried the other Shadow Demon Beast might return to reinforce them.”
“They’re being cautious,” Rafe said, leaning against a tree trunk. His face was pale from blood loss, but his blue eyes remained sharp. “They’re afraid the two beasts might join forces and ambush them.”
“This is perfect for us,” Dora said, her eyes sparkling as she looked around. “Two Pinnacle Level 6 mutated alien beasts made their nest here, there’s definitely something unusual around here.”
Elmer quickly activated a small shield, just to be safe.
Lioren hopped lightly onto the tallest branch nearby, his amber eyes scanning the surroundings like a pair of searchlights.
The battlefield was wrecked, scorched earth, splintered trees everywhere. But that just made the patch of bushes at the edge look even more out of place.
Despite all the raging energy blasting through here, those bushes were still full of life, and a faint blue glow seemed to flow
1 among their leaves.
Loren dropped down from the branch and walked over, his amber eyes locked onto the heart of the bushes He flicked his tail. “The energy inside is really clean, totally different from the Shadow Demon Beast’s corrupted vibe
The five of them carefully parted the dense foliage.
When the whole plant finally came into view, even Rafe, who’d seen just about everything, let out a low, surprised “huh”
It was a small tree, barely three feet tall, shimmering in deep crystalline purple Its branches looked sculpted from crystal and silver halos danced along the edges of its leaves
But what really grabbed their attention were the fruits dangling from the branches, each about the size of a pigeon’s egg, a blue so deep it looked like the night sky, with tiny specks of starlight glimmering inside, like a pocket-sized universe trapped
