Weakest Beast Tamer Gets All SSS Dragons novel Chapter 151

The cousins exchanged a look and slid silently closer, hiding behind a column.

"...and now with that ruins thing..." they managed to hear Liu. "...as if the hydra wasn’t enough..."

The blue-haired cousin barely contained an exclamation. Her companion covered her mouth with one hand.

Liu continued walking distractedly while muttering to himself until he was far enough away.

"Great," one of them sighed. "Now what? Without Wei’s class this first hour, we don’t even know where to look for Harold..."

"...should have followed Ren to the caves?" Liu continued mumbling. "But the cultivation class has the hardest exam to memorize..."

The cousins exchanged a meaningful look, their beasts stirring with interest beneath their skin.

"I’m going to the caves," one of the cousins whispered. "If they’re looking for ruins, we need to know why."

"And what am I supposed to do without being able to find Harold?"

"You’re right... Without Wei’s class, he won’t show up until later. Follow this boy for now, he’s muttering interesting things so keep track of everything he says."

The cousin sighed resignedly while watching her companion disappear down the hallway. She turned to follow Liu, who was still muttering to himself as he walked.

But though she followed, he no longer seemed to be saying anything interesting... He appeared to be heading to his cultivation class.

The cousin was considering abandoning the surveillance when Liu, instead of heading to his usual class, took an unexpected detour.

The side hallway was rarely used, mainly for storage. Liu looked nervously both ways before turning another corner.

’What are you up to?’ the cousin smiled while following cautiously. Maybe this day wouldn’t be so boring after all.

In the caves… _{freёweɓnovel.com}

The tunnel grew meter by meter, each section immediately reinforced with living crystal that glowed with a soft, steady light.

"How much further?" Min asked while his snake helped the hydra try to remove another particularly stubborn worm from the ground.

"Not much," Ren smiled. "I can feel the ruins getting closer."

CRASH.

"Was that necessary?" Ren looked at Taro, who shrugged sheepishly.

"My beast says it’s more efficient this way."

Min shook his head while watching the Living Tunnel clean its foot again. "At least it’s quick..."

While Taro’s beast and the hydra continued digging, Ren and Min collected the remains of the lesser worms they’d defeated. The tunnel floor was littered with evidence of their battles.

The cores were incomplete, practically hundred-point crystals so they were good, but the teeth were what really caught Ren’s attention.

"Still thinking about making those strange weapons?" Min asked while storing some crystals.

"Mmm," Ren examined one of the teeth, remembering his failed attempts of the last few months. "I never managed to get them to fix properly to the wood to make the spiked club I wanted."
