Chapter 268: Search Mission

After walking for about a kilometer, the group arrived in front of a small dock.

Looking at the ships coming and going on the calm river, the city guard Beast Master’s expression instantly changed.

Once the other party boarded the ship, they wouldn’t be able to track the scent anymore.

Looking at the wide river surface and the gentle breeze, Lugh’s expression didn’t look too good either.

The surface of the water would not leave any scent behind.

He could track the residual scent in the air, but if there was a strong wind blowing away the scent, he would also feel troubled.

Lugh’s ability was to track by smell, not time.

“They might have boarded the boat together with the car. See if there are any surveillance cameras or witnesses nearby.”

Not long after, the people from the city guards came to report that there were no surveillance cameras.

There were witnesses, but the other party only remembered that it was an old-fashioned sand boat without any obvious signs. The sand boat had put away its sails and was heading downstream.

“That’s easier.” Lugh looked downstream. “They will definitely only stop at the dock within the area of Skylight City. They won’t leave the area of Skylight City.”

This river was called Skylight River. Almost all the Fierce Beasts in the river that passed through Skylight City were wiped out by the Southwest Army. The Fierce Beasts that lived in Skylight River would not have the chance to attack this city.

Lugh didn’t think that the ship would leave Skylight City by water.

It was just kidnapping a child. There was no need for them to risk their life.

“Yes, Major.”

“Members of the Emergency Response Team, summon the flying-type Fierce Beasts and search downstream for me. We need to search every ship on the river, no matter if it’s going upstream or downstream.”

“Yes.”

Lugh said to the Beast Master with the Golden Hound, “Your Golden Hound has also memorized the smell of the tires on that car. You’ll be in a group with them. We’ll split into two groups and check the smell on the deck of the sand boat downstream first.”

“Yes, Major.”

“You guys stay in the car,” Lugh said this to the middle-aged woman.

After saying that, he directly jumped into the river and stood firmly on the surface of the river, flying directly toward the nearest sand boat that was swimming downstream.

The other 10th Emergency Response Team brought the Beast Master along and flew toward other targets.

After jumping onto the deck of the boat, the crew members on the boat looked at him nervously.

Lugh sniffed. There was no smell of the car, and then he flew away without looking back.

Their emergency team was doing their job. There was no need to explain.

Lugh’s search speed was very fast. He only needed to stand on the boat for a minute to determine if there was the smell of the car.

Soon, fifteen minutes passed. Lugh jumped onto an ordinary sand boat. With a light sniff, he could smell the smell of the car’s new tires.

“Sir, what’s the matter?”

A simple-looking middle-aged man saw Lugh landing on the deck and immediately ran over to ask.

Lugh summoned the Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic Butterfly, and the people on the sand boat were suddenly frozen in that instant.

“Come here, there’s a situation.”

Lugh shouted loudly.

The eight Beast Masters who had come to ask the question caught up to the sand boat.

“I found the scent of that car.” Lugh pointed at the side deck on the boat. “Do you guys have any interrogation techniques that you’re good at?”

The eight Beast Masters stood out in unison.

So many people are good at interrogation?

Lugh raised his brows, feeling that he had discovered another weakness of his. “Then you guys can attack together.”

Two minutes later, Lugh saw a strange-looking human corpse on the deck, and it dawned on him.

He actually knew how to interrogate people like this.

The Beast Master of the city guard said, “The one we found out is the Wolf Slayer Gang. They’re a gang organization in the Eastern District, not in our Northern District.”

“Do you know the location of the Wolf Slayer Gang?”

“They’re all back.”

Lugh nodded and said, “We’ll go to the Eastern District then.”

“But I belong to the Northern District!” The Beast Master with the Golden Hound said hesitantly. “I don’t have the right to handle cases in the Eastern District.”

Lugh smiled and said, “It’s fine. You can just watch from the side. We’ll take care of the rest.”

“Right, just bring us there. We’ll take care of the rest.”

The members of the 10th Team also patted their chests and promised.

“Alright.”

The Beast Master from the Northern City District nodded.

With Major Lugh’s guarantee, he really had nothing to be afraid of.

“Major Lugh, why don’t we deal with these people ourselves?” A Beast Master from the 10th Team pointed at the remaining thirteen staff members on the sand ship and asked. “They’re all members of the Wolf Slayer Gang. It doesn’t seem like it’s their first time doing something like this…”

The Wolf Slayer Gang had angered the masses this time.

Lugh knew that the seven Beast Masters that Bill had sent out were all holding a fire in their hearts.

The Beast Masters of the Emergency Response Team weren’t actually good-natured people.

Their tempers were even more irritable than most ordinary Beast Masters.

Perhaps it was because of the long and intense battles and the large number of casualties, the pressure caused most of the elite Beast Masters of the Emergency Response Team to have psychological problems.

For this reason, Skylight City had even arranged for every Emergency Response Team to have psychotherapists who were proficient in psychology.

The effect was actually not that great. Very few members of the Emergency Response Team took the initiative to go and consult them.

Lugh had never been there before. He believed that he was very healthy in his heart.

Lugh looked at the fearful expressions on those people’s faces. They were all ordinary people, and he couldn’t bear to see them like this.

Thus, he turned around, waved his hand, and walked to the other end of the ship. He said, “Then you guys deal with them.”

There was no point in killing ordinary people. If they were Beast Masters, he could do something about it.

“Military lords, please don’t kill me. We won’t dare to do it again.”

“Let us off this time.”

“This is our first time doing it.”

…

Seeing that this group of soldiers wanted to kill them, the surrounding members of the Wolf Slayer Gang knelt on the ground and smashed their heads against the deck.

They hoped that the other party would let them off.

However, the Beast Masters of the Emergency Response Team didn’t have any thoughts of being soft-hearted.

The person the Wolf Slayer Gang had kidnapped was none other than their comrade’s daughter.

Just based on this, they were sentenced to death.

Right at this moment, a beautiful butterfly flew past the Beast Master’s head.

It stretched out its mouthpart and easily pierced through the head of a Wolf Slayer Gang member.

The Wolf Slayer Gang member rolled his eyes, his body trembling as he died.

The other members of the Wolf Slayer Gang were all dumbfounded when they saw this horrifying scene.

Just as they were about to scream, they realized that they couldn’t make a sound.

The eight Beast Masters present looked at each other, but no one stopped them.

They all recognized that this Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic Butterfly was Lugh’s pet.

One of the Beast Masters said with a smile, “I think this is a good way to die. These people don’t deserve to have brains.”

“Then that’s it. We’ll just treat them as trash.”

“I heard that the Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic Butterfly can absorb brain matter from other creatures to improve its spirit-type skills.”

“You actually believe this? This is fake! There’s no scientific basis for it!”

…

A few minutes later, Lugh asked loudly, “Are you done with it?”

The Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic Butterfly carefully wiped its mouth, flapping its wings as it flew back.

“Right away.”

The eight Beast Masters threw the Wolf Slayer Gang’s corpse into the shipyard, leaving the rest to the city guards.

Seeing the Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic Butterfly flying over with the eight Beast Masters, Lugh didn’t think too much about it and directly put it into his subdued beast space.

After putting on the Emergency Response Team’s military uniform, no one dared to stop them on their way.

Soon, the nine of them arrived in front of a building. This was the Wolf Slayer Gang’s base.

They were going to come sooner or later anyway.

“We’ll listen to Major Lugh.”

Lugh looked at the Beast Master of the City Guards’ Northern District and said, “You stay here. If the city guards from the Eastern District come over, just tell them that our Emergency Response Team is working on something and that they shouldn’t interfere. Is that okay?”

“Sure!”

“Get ready for battle. Let’s go in. Don’t let any of them go.”

“Yes!”

The seven Beast Masters instantly summoned their pet beasts. Lugh summoned the Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic Butterfly and the Bloodthirsty Hell Vine.

The Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic Butterfly followed by his side. As soon as the Bloodthirsty Hell Vine landed on the ground, it dug through the cement ground and disappeared into the soil.

“Don’t kill people recklessly.”

“We understand.”

Lugh took the lead and entered the casino’s entrance.

The two Beast Masters guarding the entrance saw the situation and didn’t resist at all. They ran straight back to the casino.

As soon as Lugh entered the casino, he saw that the spacious hall on the first floor was bustling with people.

The hall was filled with gambling tables, and every table was surrounded by people, filled with chips.
