Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“You’re welcome. Actually, I don’t know much either, but there is a piece of news that indicates that the Two-Headed Ogre is not simple,” Captain Baldy said seriously.
“What news?” Lu Bin asked hurriedly.
“The news came from the logistics officer. That officer came to me earlier and gave me two blankets and some jerky.”
“He asked me to give these things to Jiang Yun and his Summoned Beast. He emphasized that ogres liked to eat meat and jerky was for Two-Headed Ogre…”
“As a powerful Silver Rank, that officer shouldn’t have known Jiang Yun. However, he actually made such a move. This can only mean that there’s a secret.”
Captain Baldy explained the general situation seriously.
“Now that you mention it, there might really be a secret. After all, he’s a Silver Rank expert. It’s really strange that he would come down personally and even give something away.”
Lu Bin was puzzled. He also felt that there was something fishy going on. He was looking forward to the ogre’s hidden skills more and more.
“Let’s wait and see. Next, let’s see what the ogre is hiding.” Captain Baldy’s eyes lit up.

“Yeah, let’s wait and see.”
The two of them looked at the battle expectantly. They were very curious about the upcoming battle. Even Jiang Xiaoyu and Jiang Zhan, who were beside them, were attracted by the battle. They were also curious.
However, no matter how they looked at it, they could not tell what was different about the ogre. Even the Spiritual Power fluctuations were Low-Level Black Iron Rank. They were puzzled and could not figure out why.
While they were confused, Jiang Yun finally killed the Blood Beast more than ten times and finally got a mysterious Blood Pearl after a hard battle.
“I succeeded. I killed the Blood Beast.”
Jiang Yun ran back breathlessly and looked at Li Xuan happily with the Blood Pearl in his hand.
“Well, this looks a little better now.”
Li Xuan replied indifferently. He took the Blood Pearl and looked at it. He found that it was something like a Crystal Core. It could increase Spiritual Power, but it needed a special treatment method and could not be directly absorbed.
“This Blood Pearl is worth 100 Battle Merits. As long as you take it back, you can exchange it,” Captain Baldy walked over and explained.
“Oh? It’s actually worth 100 Battle Merits.” Li Xuan’s eyes lit up. He was eager to try and kill more Blood Beasts to earn Battle Merits.
“Cough, cough.”
Captain Baldy saw that Li Xuan was eager to try and immediately reminded him.
“Invisible Blood Beasts are very troublesome. If they don’t move, no one can discover them. Even if they move, only people with extremely sharp five senses can discover them.”
After Captain Baldy finished speaking, he looked at the thin and small youth, Lu bin, and continued to explain.
“This is my teammate Lu bin. His five senses are very sharp. He has discovered many Invisible Blood Beasts. He’s nicknamed ‘Perceptor’.”
“Perceptor? He is the famous Perceptor?” Jiang Zhan and Jiang Yun said in unison, looking at Lu Bin in surprise.
“You know me?” Lu bin raised his eyebrows, feeling pleasantly surprised.
“Yes, you are one of the three great perceptive martial artists in the Blood Sea Stronghold. Your fame has long spread to Holy War City,” Jiang Zhan and Jiang Yun immediately said.
“I didn’t expect my fame to be so great. However, I still have to be careful. Invisible Blood Beasts are different from normal Blood Beasts. Their concealment ability is very strong…”
No one would be able to discover the Invisible Blood Beasts if they were motionless. Even Silver Rank Blood Beasts would not be able to discover the Invisible Blood Beasts. Only when they were moving would they be able to discover the Invisible Blood Beasts. Only then would they be able to ensure their safety.”
“Therefore, everyone must be extremely careful and be extremely vigilant in their surroundings to prevent the Invisible Blood Beasts from suddenly attacking,” Lu bin exhorted.
“I see. I’ve learned my lesson. We will definitely be vigilant in our surroundings,” Jiang Yun said hurriedly.
“Then, are there Invisible Blood Beasts around us now?” Jiang Zhan looked around vigilantly.
“Don’t worry. This is the outer area of Area 6. There won’t be any Invisible Blood Beasts here. Moreover, I’ve checked just now and did not find any traces of Invisible Blood Beast, so there won’t be any,” Lu bin said confidently.
Bang!
A muffled sound was heard.
Li Xuan’s right fist fiercely hit the rock next to him, making a muffled sound.
With this sound, Li Xuan grabbed a Blood Beast’s neck with his right hand and slowly lifted it up. Then, he twisted his neck and looked at the crowd.
“How many Battle Merits is a High-Level Black Iron Rank Invisible Blood Beast worth?”
“Uh…”
Lu bin looked at the struggling Invisible Blood Beast and felt its High-Level Black Iron Rank aura. He could not help but swallow his saliva. He felt scared.
Earlier, he had said that there were no Blood Beasts here and that it was very safe. Later, the ogre had attacked an Invisible Blood Beast. The ogre even asked how many Battle Merits was it.
Such a scene and such a scene made Lu Bin’s head spin. He felt a burning sensation on his face.
The key point was that he was a Perceptor and one of the three great Perceptors. His reputation was well-known. However, the Invisible Blood Beast that he had not discovered was actually discovered by Li Xuan.
Such a result made Lu Bin doubt his life.
“You… How did you discover it?” Lu bin swallowed his saliva. He suspected that the ogre was just lucky.
“How did I discover it? It’s standing right here. Can’t you see it? Aren’t you a Perceptor?” Li Xuan asked in a matter-of-fact tone.
“What? It’s standing right there? Wait, you can see the Invisible Blood Beast directly?” Lu Bin was stunned and hurriedly looked at Captain Baldy.
Captain Baldy was also shocked. If the ogre could see the Invisible Blood Beast directly, then this Blood Sea Stronghold might be directly settled.
Therefore, Captain Baldy hurriedly said, “Can you really see the Blood Beast directly? Really?”
“Yes, isn’t that just a matter of course?” Li Xuan said with an angry look.
“A matter of course? ?”
When Captain Baldy and Lu bin heard this, they were a little stunned. They wondered if they were living in the same world as the ogre.
The main thing was that it was so difficult to discover the Blood Beasts, yet it was so easily discovered by the ogre. Such a result was truly shocking.
However, when they thought about how the ogre could directly see the Invisible Blood Beasts, then if they reported this matter to the higher-ups, the defenders of the Blood Sea Stronghold would be able to counterattack the Blood Beasts.
Thus, the bald captain wanted to verify it again and immediately asked, “Excuse me, are there any more Blood Beasts around here?”
“Yes, they are in the grass behind you. Just now, they even made a face at you,” Li Xuan said calmly.
“What?”
Captain Baldy’s expression changed, and the battle saber in his hand suddenly stabbed backward.
Puff!
Blood sprayed out, and an Invisible Blood Beast revealed itself. It looked at Captain Baldy in disbelief, as if it did not expect to be discovered.
“There… There really is a Blood Beast. No wonder the logistics officer took care of you so well. So that’s how it is.”
Captain Baldy was completely shocked. He looked at Li Xuan in shock, and even ignored the Blood Beast that was gradually healing.
Whoosh!
Lu Bin quickly attacked and killed the blood beast. Then, he looked at Li Xuan with a shocked look and said with a serious expression, “Can you point out the location of some more Invisible Blood Beasts?”
“Of course, but you have to give me 70% of the Battle Merits,” Li Xuan said lightly.
