The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 549

Chapter 549 No More Wagon

Karl looked at the wagon that Thor had pulled this far across the wilderness. Then he turned to the oldest of the Royal Rank Minotaurs who had come to the defence of the farm.

"Jacob, I bequeath my wagon to you. I know yours got destroyed, it was smashed when I got to your house. We are going to have to move faster than the wagon will allow, so you may have mine as a replacement to help bring the supplies your neighbours will need."

The Minotaur patted him on the shoulder. "Are you sure? Humans on foot are not faster than a wagon."

Karl chuckled. "I have a harness for them to ride on Thor. His might won't be challenged by a few dainty ladies."

The Minotaurs laughed while Dana stuck out her tongue at him and Tessa rolled her eyes.

Karl and Ophelia were both fast on foot, but Karl was planning to swap out after the first few hours, once they weren't being as closely scrutinized. The other farmers wouldn't know or care about the beasts as long as they didn't approach the farms, and his secret was already out, so he didn't have to worry about the Council finding out who he was anymore.

[I will take my Dana as an artillery accessory.] Rae agreed.

That would free up a seat for Ophelia on Thor's back, so she was well rested when they ran into trouble. But she would likely want to remain on foot once they got into the more dangerous areas.

But with the Lamia and Naga Warriors flanking Thor, they had plenty of ground forces already. _{freёwebnoѵel.com}

[I will take Remi.] Cara insisted.

Having the Naga Queen in Spirit Snake form was a great compliment to her skills while flying, and if she wanted to fight on the ground, Remi could transform and bring out her final bodyguard.

The Bodyguards were Monarch Rank now, strong enough to defend against anything that they were likely to find out here, while Cara found a way to disassemble it.

The beasts came out as soon as they were out of sight of the farm, so they didn't leave a strange impression with the farmers they had been secretly protecting for the last two days.

For the first half hour, it was easy travels to head north toward the edge of the incident. All of the nearby farmers had gathered in one spot, and the monsters had followed, or had been hunted by Karl's team.

But no good thing lasts forever, and after that first half hour of cleared monsters, they were into the area that hadn't been cleared yet.

[Turn a bit east. That path will be faster. There are a few farms ahead on that route, but they've taken care of most of the monsters.]

That worked well enough for Karl, and the route between fields was either clear or the fences had been taken down by the Giant Boars.

[Many small farmers in that house.] Rae informed them as they passed by a damaged farmhouse.

Karl turned to see what Rae was looking at, and found that the house had collapsed, but the floor seemed intact, and there was a basement or a cellar under it.

He ran over and rapped his knuckles on the wood.

"We've cleared most of the attackers from the area. Do you need medical help? I have a cleric with me." He called.
