The King of Beast Trainers

126  Chapter 91 The Truth of Five Years Ago_1

It was Lu Yunxiu, his mother!

Just in an instant, Lu Ran recognized the voice in the video—it was indeed his own mother's.

Looking at the familiar face in the video, Lu Ran suddenly felt it was unbelievable.

What on earth was going on?

Hadn't his parents died five years ago in a beast attack in the Amazon Rainforest?

Although he had always wanted to trek through the Amazon Rainforest himself, over the years, Lu Ran had come to accept this reality.

But the scene before him now threw Lu Ran into mental disarray.

"I know you have many doubts, but listen carefully, this is very important for you!" In the video, his mother was still tempestuous.

"You've seen the changes in the world, haven't you?"

"First of all, although Infinite City appeared three years ago, extraordinary beings have existed on Blue Star for a very, very long time."

"They might be from Blue Star itself, or creatures from another world."

"Our Lu Family Village's Divine Deer Totem must be one of them."

"But due to certain environmental factors, they no longer fit into today's Blue Star, so they disappeared without a trace."

"However, before the emergence of Infinite City, there were already factions that firmly believed in these legends."

"Five years ago, your father and I were invited to the Amazon Rainforest to investigate a mysterious rare beast."

"The inviters were actually the predecessors of Reaper Power, who had invited many zoologists and biologists like us from all over the world."

"The real purpose was not to investigate any rare beast but to control a group of biologists to help them study extraordinary beings."

"Reaper Company fabricated the illusion of the research team being attacked and successfully made us 'disappear from the human world'."

Upon seeing this, Lu Ran's expression turned grim. Was this the truth behind what happened five years ago?

"Originally, many people thought they would be imprisoned here for life, but the situation changed three years ago due to the mass descent of Black Card in Infinite City."

"Unfortunately, Reaper Organization's power was stronger than imagined, and the internal strife was quickly suppressed; your father and I did not resist strongly because we were worried you would be implicated."

"After this incident, we became important researchers for Reaper, and with our status as Beast Trainers, we rose to the organization's core higher echelons within a short time."

"At this point, we were already too deeply involved with Reaper, a transnational crime organization, to easily return to your side."

"The next thing I'm going to tell you is the most important."

"Reaper has a long history. This organization has always been looking for a legendary item called 'Reaper Stone'."

"Legends say that whoever obtains the Reaper Stone can control death, become the true Reaper God and gain the power to overturn the world."

"After rising to the higher ranks, we learned a lot about it—there's no doubt it must not fall into the hands of the ambitious."

"We decided to take a chance to get the Reaper Stone ourselves."

"But since Reaper has been searching for so long without finding it, its existence is still uncertain."

"Internal factions within Reaper have already emerged, and some have given up the search for the stone."

"However, during the process of research and investigation, your father and I found a key clue. The Reaper Stone might indeed exist and be of utmost importance. Perhaps finding it could unlock the secret of Infinite City's emergence."

"We decided to continue the search, to prevent others from finding it first." n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"This process is extremely dangerous, and one careless move could be fatal. But if successful, the day we reunite won't be far off. If one day we meet with an accident, the results of our investigation into the Reaper Stone will reach you through a special channel."

"I really don't want to involve you, but from the moment we entered Reaper, you could no longer remain uninvolved. Without us, we won't be able to protect you in the shadows; sooner or later, you will attract Reaper's attention."

"Most likely, they will invite you to join Reaper and take over from us, but unless your life is threatened, do not join Reaper lightly, no matter how they tempt you!"

"Reaper is riddled with factions and is not a united front. Even as core high-level members, we are restrained on all sides."

"You now have two choices. One is to take the information that follows and hand it over to a trustworthy official in Xia Country for protection and to find a way to locate the Reaper Stone."

"The second is to take the information, find a trustworthy and powerful official in Xia Country to protect you and help you acquire the Reaper Stone."

"Now listen to me, the two conditions for finding and controlling the Reaper Stone are 1. Have a powerful undead beast as your Pet Beast."

"2. Obtain a part of the body of the legendary creature, the Dragon of Death."

"The toughest of these is the second condition, which may require effort within the Breakthrough Secret Realm."

"Also, the necro system is not evil; many people just haven't found the right way to cultivate it."

"This is a very important Attribute that forms part of the world's operation. When the time comes, I'll arrange for Earl Hong to send you a large number of Resurrection Skill Book Beast Techniques. I hope you can hand them over to Xia Country's officials and get them to take the cultivation of the necro system seriously."
