Su Bai drove directly to Mount Tragic. However, he had no intention of greeting anyone. This time, he wanted to explore other areas of Mount Tragic.

But as soon as he arrived at the back of the mountain, a notification from the system rang in his mind.

BEEP!

A Chemist skill book, World Chemistry Art has been detected. It can be simplified for cultivation through meditation!

Do you want to simplify it immediately?

Su Bai frowned, ‘A Chemis skill that was not related to Beastmaster or Alchemist skill? It was meant for Chemists? A Chemist could create ancient medicines like the ones I received before?’

Without hesitation, Su Bai chose to simplify it, “Simplify.”

Su Bai sat in the car without moving. At the same time, he observed his surroundings. Soon, he noticed something.

On the back of the mountain, several ordinary-looking herbs triggered a faint memory in Su Bail s mind. It was something he had read a long time ago. The book was originally about Beastmasters, and it described herbs that could treat Beasts.

It was a type of grass that looks like chives but is smoky blue in color. It can change the state of a Beast in a short period. It was called Never-hunger Herb.

Su Bai looked at the Never-hunger Herb and remembered the gifts the village chief had given him. He had a rough idea of the purpose of Mount Tragic and why Han Zhengzhi wanted to claim it as his own.

But to some extent, Han Zhengzhi’s intention to claim Mount Tragic as his own was probably not solely because of these herbs. As Su Bai was looking around, a surge of heat in his body made him realize that he had learned the Chemist’s skill.

BEEP!

Simplifying… Simplification successful!

As expected, the system’s voice sounded, and Su Bai got out of the car.

After getting out of the car, Su Bai found that there were not only

Never-hunger Herb on the mountain but also other herbs. He hadn’t seen these herbs before, but due to the recent skill simplification, Su Bai could now name all of them.

With his current base, Su Bai wasn’t suitable for cultivating these herbs. Otherwise, he would have to negotiate with the village chief to take a few back with him. If he was lucky, he might even be able to cultivate them himself.

Since the plants here were all village property, Su Bai didn’t do anything to them. He took out his flight surveillance alarm directly. Through the software on his device, he adjusted the function and alarm level of the alarm. Then he

drove away directly.

As soon as Su Bai left, the villagers with the village chief came down from the mountain.

“It seemed like someone came just now.”

When they looked over, there was no one there, not even a shadow.

The village chief raised an eyebrow and noticed something in the sky. At the same time, his phone rang. It was a message from Su Bai.

Su Bai told the village chief that he had placed a surveillance alarm on Mount Tragic. If enemies approached, he would be notified.

At the same time, to prevent the village chief from rejecting it, Su Bai specifically stated that the Beastmaster Association has paid, and during the time when the villagers don’t have weapons for self-defense, Su Bail s group will protect them.

The village chief replied with a smile, [Thank you.]

In fact, even if Su Bai said that he placed those things, the village chief would feel relieved. He wasn’t confident about other things, but he had complete faith in Su Bai. Especially the attitude Su Bai had when he first accepted the order, which the village chief really liked.

If it weren’t for the village chief’s lack of any special background, he would have tried to help Su Bai establish a bigger base. However, when the village chief thought about Su Bai’s base again, he furrowed his brow.

The villagers around him noticed that something was wrong with the village chief.

“Chief, is it possible that the sky thing is related to those people again?”

Hearing the voices around him, the village chief came back to his senses. He shook his head repeatedly and said, “Not this time. These things were brought by the young man who protected us last time.”

The villagers laughed, “That young man is really a good person! ”

The village chief didn’t mention the Beastmaster Association. Because compared to the association, the villagers were more willing to believe in Su Bai.

Moreover, if the village chief mentioned the Beastmaster Association, the villagers might do everything they could to get rid of it.

The village chief rubbed his forehead and thought, ‘It seemed that the Beastmaster Association was quite considerate this time. They found someone the villagers trusted. They were willing to believe in Su Bai, not because of the Beastmaster Association. Instead, it was because of Su Bai. That’s why they didn’t question why the association would pay to protect them.’

The village chief didn’t even want to investigate, and the villagers didn’t say anything. After a few people came down from the mountain, the villagers spread the word with smiles, “Hey, did you know? The young man who came to our village last time to deal with the Beasts, this time he brought something to protect us!”

While speaking, the person pointed to the small black aircraft flying in the sky. “It’s this thing.”

After hearing what Villager A said, Villager B finally relaxed.

“It’s good that you told us in time. The big brother next door is already working on getting rid of this thing.”

“It turns out that the young man is here to help us. We thought it was those people causing trouble again!”

Villager C couldn’t stop smiling.

“Don’t you know, just now the village chief said that the young man is going to protect us!”

Everyone turned their gaze toward the village chief.

Due to various incidents that happened one after another, the number of people in the village decreased. Currently, there were around four to five hundred people.

The village chief cleared his throat heavily and said, “That’s right. I originally wanted to use the loudspeaker, but you guys spread the news first. I’ll use the loudspeaker to inform everyone later. That young man’s name is Su Bai. This time he has made a batch of weapons, but they won’t be delivered until late. Until the weapons are ready, he will send people to protect us. As for the cost…

The Beastmaster Association promised to pay for us.”

Originally, the village chief didn’t want to bring up the Beastmaster

Association. However, he realized that Su Bai couldn’t make weapons, protect them, and not charge any fees.

Due to the constant oppression they had faced, the villagers had no money left. Su Bai’s goodwill only stretched so far. They didn’t want Su Bai to keep doing good deeds for them.

“Are they trying to deceive us?” someone gathered the courage to speak up. “It’s not that we don’t trust Su Bai. It’s just that we can’t be sure if this is a trap set by the Beastmaster Association..”
