Beast Taming Patrol

As the monarch-class beast leading a small-scale beast tide perished on the spot, the pressure suddenly lightened for Combat Team 19 and other nearby units.

However, this reduction in pressure lasted only a few minutes.

Before long, another monarch-class beast appeared to replace the previous one on the frontier battle line, reviving the slightly faltering beast tide and commencing its onslaught toward the human lines.

Although the beasts' assault continued relentlessly, all combat personnel were invigorated by the Thunder Strike of the recently witnessed palace-level Beast Tamer.

With such a powerful human champion, why worry about defeat?

Relief showed on Lin Su's face among the team members.

When the previous monarch-class beast charged toward their ranks, he even held his breath, uncertain whether Instructor Xing Yun could withstand the enemy.

Fortunately, Xing Yun didn't even need to act; the Beast Tamer had already targeted and killed the monarch-class beast with a single strike.

This made him recall a battlefield rule that Instructor Xing Yun had mentioned while training the squad.

Soldier to soldier, general to general, king to king!

The elite-level Beast Tamers, like themselves, represented the minimum combat power on the frontier, perhaps even weaker since they hadn't mastered Guardian Beast Co-operation.

Thus, their targets were only the elite-class beasts within the beast tide.

Master-level Beast Tamers would specifically target leader-class beasts among the beasts, ready to strike at any moment.

Similarly, palace-level Beast Tamers were responsible for watching over the monarch-class beasts on the battlefield.

If an emperor-class beast appeared on the battlefield, even a sitting epic-level Beast Tamer would rush from the rear to intervene in a timely manner.

This order of battle, formed over decades, ensured that higher-level forces could not wantonly slaughter the weak, splitting the battles according to different levels of strength.

With the emergence of Guardian Beast Co-operation, human Beast Tamers could dominate beasts at all stages, naturally turning the tide of battle.

This is also the monumental significance of Guardian Beast Co-operation in combat.

Today, the beasts of Immortal Country could only rely on the rapid reproduction of lower-order beasts, which outnumbered the human Beast Tamers as their advantage.

Therefore, they continuously used beast tides to wear down the human alliance and attempted to obtain Guardian Beast Co-operation data through secretive beast schemes.

In just one battle, the members of Combat Team 19 quickly adapted to the fierce exchanges on the battlefield, their faces even showing a touch of excitement.

Because they originally entered the battlefield for a test, yet the gains were far richer than expected.

The number of beasts they killed far exceeded their initial estimates.

All these were contribution points!

After about fifteen minutes of combat, the first wave of pets started showing signs of fatigue under continuous and intense attacks. Lin Su was well-prepared, urging his team to use Energy Cubes to replenish the pets' stamina and let another batch that had previously assisted take over, giving the others time to recover.

When this new batch of pets was depleted, the previous batch had fully revived.

By using this tactic, the team could maintain their combat power for long-duration fights.

An important factor in using this tactic was having sufficient strength.

Only with strong enough pets could they manage the impact of the beast tide with half their number.

Blood battle, continue the blood battle.

The new monarch-class beast that appeared was also very dissatisfied with the co-op preparatory camp, but learning from the lessons of the previous monarch-class beast, it did not act rashly but silently ordered a larger influx of low-tier beasts to charge at Combat Team 19's position, hoping to teach the opponent a bloody lesson.

For the beasts, the co-op preparatory camp without mastery of Guardian Beast Co-operation was definitely the easiest target to kill, though protected by master-level instructors, there were still times when care fell short, leading to accidents.

Due to the intentional targeting by the monarch-class beast, the combat pressure on Team 19 became greater; almost as soon as they finished dealing with the previous beasts, more would surge forward. As time passed, both the Beast Tamers and pets of Combat Team 19 started showing signs of fatigue under intense battle conditions.

More than an hour later, a sound akin to a war drum, a strange beast roar, spread across the battlefield, halting the ravaging beast tide momentarily. Countless beasts then started retreating slowly, like the tide going out.

The wave of beast tide ended.

"We won!"

Upon confirming there were no more advancing beasts nearby, everyone remained silent for a moment before they couldn't help but cheer.

Since Qiuqiu had used the corpses of the beasts as explosive packs, the surroundings of Team 19 weren't piled with carcasses like other combat teams; instead, it was eerily empty, marked only by numerous blood-stained vines fluttering mid-air. The not fully congealed blood trickled down the vines but was frozen mid-way by Extreme Cold, creating strands of red ice.

Behind Lin Su, the tip of his silver-white long spear was blood-stained but still sharp, flickering with a cold light in the dimness.

When Qiuqiu was exhausted and recovering, the defense line was unexpectedly breached by a severely wounded beast. In a moment of urgency, he swiftly lunged with his spear, executing Cloud Piercing from the beast's eye, channeling force through the spear tip, and instantly destroying its brain.

After all, he had already completed the toughening phase; hitting a fatal blow to kill a severely wounded elite-class beast was not a difficult task.
