Beast Taming: the More the Better

Chapter 1261: Chapter 518: Farewell, Qintian Monitor! Battle for the Gu King!

The Jiao Long slowly flew across the sky.

After activating the Biological Metal Dragon Transformation, Su Ping stood above the cockpit, right at the head of the Jiao Long. The mechanical wings, which perfectly simulated the wings of a Giant Dragon, flapped in midair. Below, an endless expanse of mountains and forests stretched out.

He had to admit, if Qin Erlong hadn’t scouted the location in this Shattered Stone Mountain Range beforehand, it would have been impossible for Su Ping to find an area teeming with Poison Insects in this godforsaken place on his own.

”Su Ping, continue heading southwest at a thirty-five-degree angle for twenty kilometers!”

”Got it! Southwest at a thirty-five-degree angle, advancing twenty kilometers.”

Standing atop the head of the Jiao Long, Su Ping was merely putting on a show. Even when the Jiao Long was being flown manually, it was Long’er inside the actual cockpit who was doing the driving—or rather, the Jiao Long’s AI itself. Nevertheless, facing the warm autumn sun and riding a mechanical Giant Dragon above the Qiong Xiao was indeed incredibly thrilling. After all, riding his own three Dragons was still a bit difficult at their current stage.

Its wings flapped. Despite being in its dragonified combat state, its speed wasn’t slow at all. In the blink of an eye, they had arrived. Sure enough, as the Jiao Long slowly descended, Su Ping actually spotted a valley not too far away.

However, as the Jiao Long continued to descend, Su Ping suddenly froze, momentarily forgetting to even issue the landing command.

The reason was simple: this was a very special valley. The surrounding woods were one thing, but not far away stood the highest peak Su Ping had seen since entering the Shattered Stone Mountain Range.

Of course, Jianghai and Huaiyang Province were coastal regions, so finding peaks over ten thousand meters high was quite difficult. Even so, the mountain looming before him stood a good four to five thousand meters tall. Its summit pierced straight through the clouds like a pillar of heaven, blocking Su Ping’s path.

Naturally, this wasn’t anything particularly strange. What truly caught Su Ping off guard was the landing spot. In a place like this, the best landing area for the Jiao Long was naturally the large clearing atop this nameless peak. Yet, upon getting closer, he spotted several familiar figures up there.

Not only did he recognize the leader and the few people beside him, but he was also very familiar with them.

Huang Tianbing! The Chief Supervisor of the Qintian Monitor. He had made an appearance in Dianzang early last month. However, the circumstances back then had been unique, and the Legend of the Holy Dragon had also been present. The two of them barely interacted before Huang Tianbing had to leave due to an urgent matter. To think he was still in Jianghai?

As for the other two, they were a pair of brothers—one tall and sturdy, the other short and scrawny! They were none other than Zhang Chaofan and Zhang Chaoqun, the civilian tomb raiders from the Magic Capital. Last time, Su Ping had even introduced them to Ding Yan for the Breeding of the Ashen Wolf Lord. And now, these two were somehow mixed up with the Qintian Monitor?

But thinking about it, it made sense—their professions matched perfectly.

Obviously, when Su Ping saw them, they also saw him. Only, the first thing they noticed was the soaring, dark gold Giant Dragon gleaming brilliantly under the sunlight!

”Holy crap! A Dragon? Why is there a Dragon here? Is it wild?”

”Wild, my ass! Can’t you see there’s a person standing on its head? This must be a bigshot of our Dragon Nation! Lord Jianzheng, is this a powerful reinforcement you called in?”

The two brothers spoke in unison, but Huang Tianbing just scratched his head, staring at the peculiar Dragon. He was a man of wide experience and had naturally seen Dragon Pets before. He also knew that in the Dragon Nation, anyone capable of riding one was no ordinary person.

But what the hell kind of Dragon was this?

However, Huang Tianbing quickly realized whose ride this was and abruptly stood up. Following that, the massive mechanical Giant Dragon slowly came to a halt right above them. As its wings flapped, the gale kicked up from the ground forced several of them to squint.
