Killing a Second Tier Catastrophe with ease.
At this moment, Cain, the Ninth Young Master of the Lionheart Family, was leisurely sitting in the marching tent, drinking coffee, eating desserts, and enjoying the gentle care of two well-behaved army maids.
For someone of his status, a top-tier noble young master, the death rate in the Alternate Dimension has never been of their concern.
That was something their subordinates needed to consider.
The Legion Commander came to the tent, never daring to look directly at the enchanting scene of the two women serving, and bowed his head to ask, “Young Master, the vanguard scouts have confirmed that the Second Tier, D-rank Catastrophe is in the cave ahead. What are your orders?”
As Cain casually played with the beautiful body of a maiden, he lazily said, “Proceed as planned.”
“Yes.”
The commander saluted and continued, “The Fierce Beast Legion will first lure the demon out and cripple it, then you, young master, will hunt and extract the Demon’s Horn. But before that, you might want to prepare your battle armor in advance. The chronicler will capture some magical images of your battle…”
With an impatient look on his face, Cain finally stood up from between the two tender-bodied girls: “I understand.”
The Legion Commander dared not say another word and left the tent.
Once that Catastrophe is killed, the mission will be considered a great success.
But as he left the tent, the once subtle palpitations of the commander’s heart intensified.
Suddenly, he underwent a Beast Transformation, revealing a pair of fox ears.
Like most of the warriors in the Fierce Beast Legion, he, too, chose the Spade Four – Beast Walker professional sequence.
But the main material of his profession card wasn’t from a fierce beast.
It was fused with the very rare demon beast, the Gleaming Fox.
This endowed him with extraordinary crisis perception skills.
The Commander didn’t know where his sense of impending danger came from.
He looked up at several lit beacon towers in the distance. Instead of feeling relieved, his expression became heavy. He loudly asked: “What’s happening at those beacon towers? Any news?”
Despite having sent people over earlier, the sixth beacon tower was still lit up.
That means the Elite Squad they sent may have run into some problems.
But right now, they were not clear whether they were intercepted by monsters or it was for some other reason.
Although the commander didn’t believe that any First Tier card master could pose a threat to their five-member Elite Squad.
His uneasy feelings only intensified.
They had only recruited a bunch of cannon-fodder hunters this time, how could there be such a formidable character among them?
This inevitably led people to suspect that the person might be targeting their young master.
The messenger responded: “We have sent more people, but there is still no feedback.”
Commander: “What about the other areas?”
Messenger: “We have also sent people to check the rest of the beacon towers. Some key checkpoints on the way to the north of Sawtooth Forest have also been blocked. No one can enter the high-risk areas of the north.”

Listening to the report of his subordinate, the Commander nodded, feeling a little reassured.
Was he just overthinking, too anxious?
Now, they were in possession of the critical information of the C-rank plot. Unless the mission is completed, no one can get out.
The initiative was completely in their hands.
Earlier when they discovered that the beacon towers were lit, more manpower was sent to block all the key passes in the forest.
Theoretically, they had already eliminated all factors that might impact the trials of their young master.
Yet, accidents still occurred.
And they came very suddenly.
Before the Commander had a chance to catch his breath.
Without any warning, all members of Fierce Beast Legion saw the Enlightenment.
Looking at the plot mission of “Deliver Mage Rolan’s message back to Thunderbolt Fortress”, everyone in Fierce Beast Legion was dumbfounded.
Because,
They were not the ones who triggered this mission!
The vast camp turned into a war zone in an instant.
The commander roared, “Damn it! Who triggered the B-level difficulty plot?!”
A high-difficulty plot can’t be triggered just by anyone; without the requisite strength, it’s impossible.
Moreover, the clues to the unfinished C-rank plot were unclear. How could someone trigger the B-rank plot?
Now, before this B-rank mission is completed, no one can leave.
Meaning, they can’t get out either!
This was War Mode. Even for their elites, the strategists estimated the death rate of the B-rank difficulty plot to exceed 40%.
However, they didn’t expect that the accident was not just that.
Before long, the Enlightenment appeared again.
In the dungeon of Meteor Eagle Fortress.
Looking at the B-rank messenger mission in his Enlightenment, Leonard Churchill’s mind was turning rapidly, contemplating the various scenarios that will unfold once the mission is accepted.
Even without having the so-called “Magic Token”.
He could guess that in all probabilities, it was similar to the Demon’s Horn, a special item that cannot be stored in space.
And it would leak his location for some reason, attracting demons.
On his journey to deliver the message back to Thunderbolt Fortress, he would undoubtedly be pursued by the Demon Corps.
Oh,
And also pursued by the Fierce Beast Legion!
Leonard doesn’t think obtaining that thing would be a good choice at the moment.
And most importantly,
He felt that the difficulty isn’t high enough.
“Given the current plot difficulty, the B-rank difficulty might at most induce a few ordinary Second Tier demons…”
Leonard estimated the difficulty of the B-rank plot based on the previous D-rank difficulty.
He quickly concluded,
This could cause some loss to the Fierce Beast Legion,
But they were unlikely to be wiped out.
A snake will bite if not killed. Trouble will come from what is left over.
Just triggering the B-rank plot.
So far, this clearly doesn’t meet the expectation..
